For two periods a crowd of about 20,000 spectators in Marquette Stadium saw the All-Stars, outgained by a wide' margin, clamp a strangling goal line defense on the Packers and lead, 7-6. Kimbrough, hero of the All-Stars' victories over the Chicago Cardinals and Detroit Lions, had set up a scoring chance in the first quarter, on which Jimmy Nelson, once of Alabama, cashed In.

The Packers had had four scoring opportunities, but had been able to collect only once. Twice the All- Stars stopped them within the 8-yard line before brilliant Cecil Isbell's passes connected five times in a row to cover 70 yards for a touchdown. Isbell's collaborator, Don Hutson, caught one in the series for 37 yards, but the payoff shot was for seven yards to Andy Uram. Green Bay's new fullback, Ted Frltsch, put the pro men in front 9-7, on a 33-yard field goal early in the third period, but Kimbrough took the next kickoff, fumbled momentarily, then set out on an electrifying 95-yard Journey to a In Ohio River Regatta Sunday "Why Worry" To Compete. Some of the nation's speediest racing; boats are entered in the Ohio River Regatta to be held at tha Cincinnati Yacht Club, foot of Donham Avenue, East End, next Sunday.

The list of entries received by Commodore O. W. Winter and Robert Ballinger, Chairman of thd Racing Committee, includes nearly 40 hydroplanes and speedboats in the various classes. Chief interest, of oourse, centers around the Division 1, 225-cubic-inoh event, and the 725-cubic-inch division. In the former division, Guy Lombardo, nationally-known band leader, will compete in his Tempo IV, with Jack Cooper, seventy-year-old Kansas City speed ster, and a number of the other leading race drivers of the division.

ONLY START Instead Of Climax, Is Opinion Of Soutlnvorth's Job With Cardinals. Must Keep Impressionable Younger Men From Sitting Back, Says Bob Considine. "New York, September 13 (INS) What interests you? Baseball? It could be that Billy Southworth's job with the 1942 Cardinals is only beginning, Instead of being climaxed. His fiery get-in-there-and-fight type of lead ership, from the bench, and his paternal patience off' the field, have brought admirable results.

Six weeks ago his club was hopelessly out of the race, 10ty gamee behind the high-rldlng Dodgers. Now, by dint of a stirring streak, which saw them win about 29 out of 34 to collar the Dodgers, the Cards have realized a wild dream. Billy's job is to keep his impressiqnable younger men from sitting back with a wheeze of relief. He must convince them that, although they have achieved the well-nigh impossible and nailed a club that was making a shambles of the National League race, the real fight is just beginning. The Dodgers are not whipped.

No team is licked when it has nine games left against the Phils and Braves. Football? The hottest thing in satin britches these days is Colonel Bob Neyland's all-army football team. It's a coach's dream, and rival coach's nightmare. You can't throw a rock at it without hitting at least two superlative grldmen, giving their all. The army boys handled the big, burly Giants with eale at the Polo Grounds.

With Captain Johnny Plngel throwing strikes, Lieutenant Hal Van Every zig-zagglng madly, Corporal Norm Standlee crushing the tackles, and Private Jack Wilson (who ruined Texas U. for Baylor last year) slashing away behind the big, charging army line, the Giants were knocked dizzy. The Giants will be glad to drop back to the comparatively soft life of a berth in the National Football League. Colonel Neyland's team plays the Dodgers Wednesday in Baltimore, and concludes its short and exciting schedule next Sunday against the Bears, in BoBton. Along with Major Wallace Wade's Western all-army team, also a pip, it has raised close to a half-million dollars tor Army Emergency Relief.

We wish they could continue playing. Suggestion for a game that would fill any stadium in the country Neyland's team vs. Wade's team. Boxing? One of the things that did come up at the meeting the other day, where plans for the Louis-Conn fight were discussed, was a suggestion that the government cancel the income tax which Louis owes. It comes to more than $117,000.

It was going to be proposed that in view of Joe's many contributions to war chests that he be relieved of this heavy burden. The Bureau of Internal Revenue gave him a stay, for duration. But there isn't any assurance that Joe will ever fist-fight again. If, heaven forbid, he loses a leg or an eye in the war, how will he then pay what he owes Uncle Sam? If the war lasts a long time, will Joe's skill as a fighter fade? It would take a long time to pay Uncle Sam $117,000, on $77 a month. Joe's lifetime earnings are tied up in almost nonnegotiable interests.

If there was one man in the committee room the other day when the boys were discussing the impending million-dollar fight who had less money In his pocket than Joe did, it must have been Billy Conn. Billy had blown his remaining $4.80 in a crap game the night before. Racing Whirlaway climbed closer to the half-million mark by winning his hollow victory in the $25,000 Narragansett Special. But if the stable doesn't let him come into New York, for fear he'll get too much weight, we think the public will feel pretty let down. Trainer Ben Jones skipped one New York engagement for Whirly because he was assigned 134 poundss He said he'd stay out of New York because Jack Campbell, the state's handicapper, apparently was out to beat Whirly in handicap races instead of trying to make an even race of things.

Mentioned specifically was the fact that Whirly "was beaten by Tola Rose at Empire when T. R. had 30 fewer pounds up. Nonetheless, hoises have carried more than 134 pounds in the past, and if Whirly's handlers begin looking for soft touches they'll strip a lot of glamour from a colt who never asked any favors for himself. SEPTEMBER 14, NEED DOUGH, Will Hold On to It, Declares Willie Pep, Latest Featherweight Sensation.

Hails From Bat Battalino's Town Hartford, Boy Has Won 49 Bouts In Row. BY OSCAR FKALEY. New York, September 13 (UP) Life has been tough for little Gug- liermo Papaleo, twenty-year-old son of an Italian immigrant. Which explains why the slender kid from Hartford, fighting under the name of Willie Pep, wants "lots of money" and the featherweight title and probably will collect both, Gugliermo, or Willie, as he is known to the fight mob, is the hottest thing to come out of the insurance capital since the days of Louis Kid Kaplan and Bat Batta-lino, both of whom wore the feath erweight crown. In addition to their dynamite, he has polish, at tested to by 49 straight triumphs, and Willie smiles happily to think that his personal depression is over, The dark-haired youngster was attending high school and fighting as an amateur when his father, a construction worker, became ill and his mother had to go to work to feed Willie, his fourteen-year-old lister, and a seven-year-old brother, HARD ON MOTHER.

"I left school and got a job as a stock boy in a wallpaper place," Pep explained. "It was pretty tough trying to scrape along and awfully hard on my mother. I always liked to fight, so I decided to turn pro, As I say, things were awful tough, so one night they hand me fifty bucks for a fieht and I damned rear fainted. I rushed home wav Ing that doush like a flag. Then finally I got $100 for the first time and it seemed like a Willie came along fast with a Bharp left hook and a lightning-like right, and soon had a bank account.

'I bought my folks a house," he explained proudly. "Now I'm going to see that the kids get an educa tion. Yeh, I got a girl, but I'm not thinking of getting married. My only thought is to make plenty of money so there's no more tough sledding. I want to make a lot of dough, all I can before the army gets me.

And you can bet that when I cet it I'll hold on to it- because I've been hungry plenty of times." "You know I lived in a pretty tough district," he said. "Well, when I was a kid I was always pretty email, but I never took anything off anybody. CA TARE IT, TOO. "The kids wouldn't tangle with me. because I'd hit and run and I could run too fast.

Hell, I still work the same way, hit and run. But I can take it, too, as a lot of these guys found out." Several featherweight contenders who have "found out" recently are Pedro Hernandez, New York, and Bobby (Poison) Ivy, whom Pep succeeded as Hartford's number one challenger. Pep attributed his winning form to strict adherence to training. "If you want to win you got to train, and if training means dough I'm the little guy to train all day," he said. "Every time I hit that bag it's just like punching out another buck." In his last fight, Willie went against Frank Franconeri, Bayonne, N.

contender, in a Madison Square Garden semi-windup. Franconeri is a good boy, but Willie floored him three times in the first to win by a technical knockout in two minutes and seven seconds. Chalky Wright, current feather lays his title on the line against Lulu Costantino, New York, September 25. XAVIER COACH Is To Stress Kicking: With Mutryn, Weis, And Three Frosh Available Opener At Butler Saturday Afternoon. A "kicking school," not designed to make the gridders less cooperative, but to provide Xavier with an array of punting and drop-kicking talent, will furnish Coach Clem Crowe with a new objective, beginning: today.

Xavier, opening its season Saturday with Butler at Indianapolis and following this up September 25 in an engagement with Kentucky's Wildcats, seems destined to have the best punting possibilities in a long period. Crowe intends to give special attention to the team footwork, in- aiuamg punts, aiop kicks, ana a variety of placements, as a sort of "insurance for gains and point making in case the going gets too tough via the aerial or land routes. The Musketeers have the veteran Chet Mutryn, Owen Weis, sopho more, and a trio of yearlings Don Wood, "ilucho Mike" Kuennen, and Len Kemper for punting. Wood Is from Oil City, Pa. Kuennen Is a frosh from Elder and Kemper is from Norwood High School, 1 va.

Id 1 by Tenseness Of Race Evident In St. Louis Play Moore's Homer Decides Final, 3-2. Philadelphia, September 13 (AP) The St. Louis Cardinals came within a hot breath of sweeping a double-header from the poor Phils today, and failed, but even though they had to be content with win ning one out of two the Red Birds roared into exclusive possession of first place in the National League by a full game.

The Cards were over-anxious in the opening tussle, and gave the Phils two runs in the ninth inning to lose, 2-1, but they came back like champions in the second game and won, 3-2, to profit by the Brooklyn's double loss against the Cincinnati Reds. The stress of the exciting pennant struggle made everyone ia Shibe Park tense and there were a lot of people in the stands. The big show brought out a crowd of 20,798 fans, coming within a few hundred of being the biggest turnout of the year for the Phils, and they cheered every time the scoreboard posted runs for Cincinnati at Brooklyn. PLAY INTERRUPTED. The announcer even acknowledged the unusual circumstances by interrupting the play of the important first game to let everyone know that the pitchers at Brooklyn were Walters against Newsom.

It was small wonder, then, that the Cardinals crumbled when they were so close to gold and glory in the first game. Johnny Beazley, the Red Birds' great rookie who had won 19 games and ardently hoped for his twentieth, pitched eight shutout innings and his teammates gave him a run in the fifth by capitalizing on one of the three hits they made off Tommy Hughes. LOBERT GETS CALL Philadelphia, September 13 (INS) Hans Lobert, sixty -one-year-old manager of the Phils, today received a notice to report to his Philadelphia selective service board Monday morning. Lobert said that although he didn't know why he was called, ha had included on his occupational questionnaire the information that he formerly had been an athletic director and had coached at West Point when General MacArthur was there. But when victory came close, the Cards grabbed too violently.

With one out in the ninth inning Danny Litwhiler raised a short fly near the right field foul line and three Red Birds flew to take it. Second Baseman Jimmy Brown elected himself for the honor and fell down after getting hands on the ball. The result was a double. DROPS THROW HOME. Manager Billy Southworth went to the mound to comfort Beazley and made Nick Etten lift a pop foul.

But Bill Burich, a kid just up from the Eastern League, lined a single to center and Litwhiler slid home for a run as Catcher Walker Cooper dropped Terry Moore's perfect throw on a close play. This was ba enough, but Shortstop Martin Marion, usually faultless, fumbled an easy roller by Danny Murtaugh and Tommy Livingston followed with a sharp single to score the winning run. It was one of the tightest and best ball games of the season, plays and dramatic situations, and it was a worthy victory for Hughes. While holding the Cards to three hits he escaped damage except fori the fifth. In that inning W.

Cooper reached first on a fumble by Burich, was sacrificed to second and then thrown out trying to steal tnira as wnitey i.urowsKi waweui But Marlon followed with a run scoring single. COMPLEXION CHANGED. The nightcap began as another tieht duel between Howard Krist of the Cards and Rube Melton of the Phils, but its complexion was changed in the fourth when both teams scored twice, even though it continued close. In the St. Louis half of the fourth.

Enos Slaughter walked, Stan Musial tripled, and Johnny Hopp doubled, However, the Phils retaliated with four successive singles by Litwhiler, Etten, Burich, and Murtaugh to til the score and dispatch Krist. This proved a mistake, for Bill Beckman, formerly an unsuccessful hurler for the Philadelphia Athi Continued On Page 22.

KICKER Needed By Buckeyes Squad Looks Like Bunch Qf Hi Boys, Brown Says. Group Averages 10 Pounds Per Man Lighter Than Last Year Experience Lacked. Columbus, Ohio, September 13 (AP) Paul E.

Brown, the high school coach who hopped into the Big Ten last year to lead Ohio State University to six victories, a tie, a loss, and a new attendance record, is just a little fellow with big worries this season. The Buckeye mentor, who weighs 150 and stands 5 feet 9 inches, looked like a midget when compared to last year's stalwarts, but this season he looks like one of the sruad. "Just look at those kids," Brown said as he pointed to his squad of 45, made up of 24 sophomores, 17 juniors, and four seniors. "They look like a bunch of high school boys." The Bucks lost 18 lettermen by graduation, seven of them starters, while 11 emblem winners are back in harness for the ten-game 1942 campaign. The squad averages a year and a half under last year's team, and 10 pounds per man lighter, the starting forward wall stacking up at 194 and the backfleld at 184.

"We need a kicker, and we just haven't been able to find one," Brown declared. "That, along with the lack of weight and experience, makes it look like a tough season "I guess if we are going to get anywhere, we'll have to get fancy for we just don't have the stuff for a bruising, battering type of game." Brown's starting lineup is com posed of three sophomores, six juniors and two seniors, while the second team has six sophomores, four juniors and one senior, assur ing nine first-year men plenty of service. "Youngsters make mistakes, too," Brown declared, "and in the Big Ten a single mistake can cost a ball game." I This might prove to be Brown's "jinx" campaign, for it's his 13th as a coach. Of the 114 games his teams have played, he has won 102 while losing nine and tying three. Five losses came the first two years he was at Masaillon High School after taking over a club which had been beaten soundly for several seasons.

George Lynn, six-foot 195-pounder from Nlles, is captain and quarter back of this year's team, and the junior is rated one of the best blockers Ohio ever had. He never carries the ball. Gene Fekete of Findlay, 192-pound sophomore, is the fullback, and he's the bruising type. Two years ago, as a high school senior, he led the state's scholastic stars in scoring. Les Horvath, fleet-footed senior, will handle the right half spot, but he weighs only 185.

The All Stars then tried a little passing of their own, with the result that Frltsch Intercepted one from Ma rlon Pugh and galloped 32 yards over the goal line.

Roosevelt came to the rescue of the national pastime by issuing a go-ahead signal. Criticism of able-bodied athletes playing a game for money is sure to arise again. It is expected to reach its height when larger casualty lists are made public. With MacPhail in the army, there will be no one around to lead the timid owners. Commissioner Landis is not likely to lead in a fight for the preservation of the game.

Ford Frick, President of the National League, Will Harridge, President of the American, are not the inspiration type of leaders. MacPhail Always has taken swift, decisive action in any crisis. With him in the army when baseball's big test comes as it surely will the tame quite possibly will fold up quietly till the boys come home with Hitler's and Hirohito's scalps.
