NEW YORK — Southern
California’s Charles White, the
nation’s leading rusher who lifted
the Trojans to a Rose Bowl berth
with a four-touchdown performance
in his final regular-season game as a
collegian, Monday was named the
runaway winner of the 1979
Heisman Trophy, awarded to the
outstanding college football player.
White received 453 first place
votes and 1,695 total points from the
board of 1,050 voters from six
geographical regions. White beat
out last year’s winner, Oklahoma’s
Billy Sims, and became the first
Trojan to win the award since O.J.
Simpson in 1968. The senior tailback
was the seventh consecutive running
back to receive the Heisman,
announced at the Downtown
Athletic Club.
Sims received 82 first place votes
and 773 points. Trailing White and
Sims in the voting were Brigham
Young quarterback Marc Wilson,
Ohio State quarterback Art
Schlichter and Yagas Ferguson,
Notre Dame’s all-time leading
rusher.
White was named first in all six
regions. Rounding out the top 10
were Southern Cal quarterback Paul
McDonald, South Carolina fullback
George Rogers, Purdue quarterback
Mark Herrmann, Florida State
defensive star Ron Simmons and
Alabama quarterback Steadman
Shealy.
White, following in the tradition
of the Trojans’ long line of brilliant
tailbacks, capped a remarkable final
season Nov. 24 by running for 194
yards and four touchdowns in
leading the Trojans to a 49-14 rout of
UCLA that clinched the Pac-10 title
and a Rose Bowl berth.
White, the third Trojan to win the
award, finished the regular season
with 1,803 yards on the ground, the
most in the nation. He rushed for
5,598 yards in his career,
second-best in NCAA history to
Tony Dorsett’s 6,082, ran for 100 or
more yards in 30 games and notched
52 career touchdowns, tying
Anthony Davis’ school record.
Southern Cal’s Mike Garrett won
the Heisman in 1965.
Sims won the Heisman as a junior
last year after leading the nation in
rushing and the Sooners’ tailback
finished the regular season
magnificently, running for 282 yards
against Missouri before shredding
Nebraska’s “Black Shirt” defense for
247 yards in Oklahoma’s 17-14
triumph Nov. 24. That Oklahoma
victory clinched the Big Eight
championship and gave the Sooners
an Orange Bowl berth.
Sims, who led the nation with 22
touchdowns, boosted his 1979
rushing total to 1,506 yards. He
finished with a career average of 7.09
yards per carry — an NCAA record
for backs with 500 rushing attempts
or more.
Wilson, a 6-foot-5 senior and a
pure pocket passer, capitalized on
Brigham Young’s rare national
television exposure against San
Diego State Nov. 24 — firing four
TD passes and running for another to
key a 63-14 rout that lifted Brigham
Young to the WAG title and a date
with Indiana in the Holiday Bowl
Dec. 21. Wilson set an NCAA record
for passing yardage in a season with
3,720 and threw for 29 TDs in his
senior year as the Cougars led the
nation in total and scoring offense.
Schlichter led the Buckeyes to an
11-0 regular season and a Rose Bowl
berth against White’s Trojans. The
sophomore threw for 13 TDs and
1,519 yards and was intercepted only
five times.
Ferguson capped his Notre Dame
career with a 177-yard,
three-touchdown effort against
Miami of Florida. Notre Dame’s
all-time leading career rusher,
Ferguson gained 1,437 yards in his
senior season and scored 17
touchdowns.

AUSTIN — A travel agency
planned a little too far ahead in
publishing a newspaper ad
boosting a “Sugar Bowl tour” to
New Orleans for the “national
championship” game between
Texas and Alabama.
Texas needed a victory over
Texas A&M Saturday to earn a
trip to the Sugar Bowl, but the
Aggies won the contest 13-7,
sending Texas instead to the Sun
Bowl and Arkansas to the Sugar
Bowl.
In Monday’s newspaper,
Travel Masters advertised two
separate tour packages, including
round trip air fair from Austin,
four nights lodging, guaranteed
reserved seats for the football
game and professional tour
escorts.

The Truth about Nitrosamines
as we know it.
From the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare, Oct. 25, 1979
The Food and Drug Administration has received from the U. S. Brewers Asso
ciation an update on the progress the industry is making in reducing the levels of
nitrosamines in beer and other malt beverages.
At the same time, FDA is releasing the results of testing it has conducted of
nitrosamines in Scotch whiskeys. The Agency has found only trace levels of
nitrosamines in Scotch.
On the basis of the report from the Brewers Association and of its findings on
Scotch, FDA reiterates its previous position that there is no reason for consumers
to alter their consumption of these products.
The U. S. Brewers Association reported on a survey it took of 44 brewing
companies. It received responses from 95 percent of the firms. They make 99
percent of malt beverages brewed in the U. S.
Every respondent reported that it has taken measures to alter its brewing
process to reduce nitrosamine formation, the industry told FDA. The method
used to reduce nitrosamine formation consists primarily of lowering the tempera
ture of the open flame used to dry the barley malt while extending the drying
time. In addition, sulphur is added to the fire during this procedure to retard
further nitrosamine formation.
Half the malt beverages now being made in the U. S. are being made with malt
processed this way, and that should rise to more than eighty percent next month,
the industry said.
In a statement today. Dr. Jere Goyan, Commissioner of FDA, said: /y FDA will
test domestic beers after January 1 for nitrosamine content. The results of these
tests will be made public immediately. Any beers produced after January 1 that
contain nitrosamines at levels that can reliably be detected — that is, above 5 parts
per billion — will be subject to regulatory action."’
It has been known since late last year that trace amounts of nitrosamines enter
beer through the process by which the barley malt is dried. This was first reported
by tests conducted in West Germany. In addition, tests by the Brewers Associa
tion, by a contractor for the National Science Foundation (NSF) and by FDA itself
confirmed the presence of trace amounts of nitrosamines in beer. Research by the
malt beverage industry to identify the source of the nitrosamines and to develop
ways to reduce their presence has been closely monitored by FDA.
The method used to detect nitrosamines is scientifically reliable only at levels
above 5 parts per billion. Findings below this level are not regarded as being
scientifically reliable because of lack of the method's sensitivity.
FDA's tests on Scotch whiskey also confirm findings by a contractor for NSF.
The NSF study found trace amounts of nitrosamines — at an average of one part
per billion — in six of seven Scotches tested.
FDA tested 29 Scotches and also found trace levels ot nitrosamines ranging
from none to 2.3 parts per billion. As with beer, FDA does not regard findings of
less than 5 parts per billion in Scotch to be scientifically reliable. The FDA findings
are similar to the levels found in the NSF-sponsored study.
