DRAFT HOOSIERS. PITTSBURGH, Dec. 20. LV The Philadelphia Eagles an nounced last night the selection of Martin Wendell. Notre Dame guard, in the National Football League's annual draft.

The Washington Redskins Mst included fullback Harry Jagade of Indiana. BY BILL CORUM. NEW YORK. Dec. 20.

(INS) The veteran Steve Belloise scored a smashing victory over Tommy Bell in Madison Square Garden last night. Bell invariably fights well in the Garden. Which may be just another way of saying, when he really is trying. But he wins no marbles. Last niehfs fight wasn't close.

Yet Bell was in there giving Mr. B. a bustling, hustle right up to tne last couple of rounds. In those two Iinai sessions 01 the 10-rounder, Tommy was plainly in there to stay. As the boys along Jacobs Beach would nut it.

it was a good "win" for Bello se. The bald DomDer from the Bronx has been whipped only twice since coming out of the navy two years ago last In Line for Title Try. And to make his record even more Impressive, Steve has knocked out both fellows, who outpointed him George Abrams and Al Hostak. Which puts the amiable Eddie Walker's "Tiger" right in the chow line for a chance at Rocky Graziano's middleweight championship, provided Rocky's title ever is going to be taken out the deep freeze of suspension ana laid on the line again. Boxing's bald-headed row, well represented by the likes of Joe Walcott and Belloise, among others, seems to be doing right well at -the moment.

We don't quite recall how the years have treated Gus Lesnevich's thatch. The success of these veterans is contrary to what was expected Yes, even boldly prophesied around the end of the war. It was generally believed that a lot of new kids would come thun dering out of the great conflict to send the old timers back to their carpet slippers. That it hasn worked out that way is due rather to an unex pected time lag in the develop ment of these youngsters, rather than to their not being around, They're around all right. Plenty of 'em and in pretty much every weight division.

It just happens; that none has yet punched his way i into the glare of the big spotlight. Its hard to say just which one, of the younger, postwar fry will: be first to hit the top. But it; wouldn't exactly knock us out of: this swivel chair, if It should turn! out to be Jackie Cranford 'of Washington, D. C. Cranford, whose manager Chris Dundee calls "Cranberries" is the stand-up, sharp punching blond with the crew haircut.

Long before V-J Day, Dundee had given us two pictures of fine-: looking kid heavyweights. One was the brunet B-29 pilot out of Dallas, Texas, who was the pro tege of "Broadway Bob" O'Don-nell. His name was Sanders Cox and because of his greater experience: and, his war record, he was looked on as the fair-haired boy of the pair. It begins to look as though it was the really fair-haired one he almost cottontop white Cranford who'll "git thar fust with the most." COLLEGE BASKETBALL BY ASSOCIATED PRESS. East and New England.
