Description

The original release sheet reads: 1. SOUTH RIPPED BY TORNADOES: COTTON VALLEY, LA - Worst hit of Southern States areas struck by savage wind storms, in which 25 die, Cotton Valley counts twelve dead and digs out from appalling wreckage. The tornado laid homes flat and left hundreds homeless. 2. MUMMERS HAIL KING MOMUS: PHILADELPHIA - The amazing costumes and spectacular antics are the same, but the weather is different, for this year's Mummers Parade. It rains, on swirling paraders and onlookers alike. (Except Los Angeles, Portland, San Francisco and Seattle.) 3A/B/C/D. FOOT-BOWL HIGHLIGHTS — GA. TECH TOPS KANSAS, 20-14: MIAMI - In the Orange Bowl, the Georgia Tech Engineers recover a last-minute Kansas fumble to retain a six-point lead before 60,000 fans. Passes by Still account for all Tech tallies. / 13-13 TIE IN COTTON BOWL: DALLAS - After taking a drubbing in the first half, Penn State surges back to tie things up against Southern Methodist. 47,000 grid cohorts see classic in chilly Cotton Bowl. / TEXAS IS SUGAR BOWL WINNER: NEW ORLEANS - The Texas Longhorns cash in on the breaks and otherwise outclass the Alabama Crimson Tide before 72,000 in the Sugar Bowl.

Trojans. 93,000 fans see the slaughter. Michigan proves its superiority. (LOCAL – LOS ANGELES/PORTLAND/SAN FRANCISCO/SEATTLE) TOURNAMENT OF ROSES. (LOCAL – CANADA) CHELSEA ARTS BALL.
