GRAYSON'S SCOREBOARD JAII-Star Football Game Leans Toward Spectacular By HARRY GRATSON NEA Sports Editor CHICAGO (NEA) For some years it has been dem- nn i em- onstrated that football's All-Star Game is no longer a true contest But there is no greater spectacle than the nationally-televised bie S0 nZ, Under the Iights of Soldier FieW and ll once "ore will draw 80,000 spectators and a $330,000 gate on the night of August 12 when tne Cleveland Browns deploy against an outstanding collection of College All-Stars.

In the 21 years since it was conceived by the late Arch Ward, this widely-ballvhooed production has contributed si 500,000 to Chicago charities. It's the kick-off of the football season, where football men meet to plan the campaign. There has been talk of the series bein abandoned, but the news The minB night at Madison Square Garden boos rang in his ears for the first time as he whipped Italo Scortichini in a non- title 10-rounder. They were not directed especially at the champion but more at both fighters as the fight became dull in spots. Basilic, making his first start since he won the title by stopping Tony DeMarco, June 10, wasn't quite up to par.

Still he controlled the action all the way, except for sporadic bursts by the swarthy Italian. bad for the A Stars their Job prospects fnTb lak 6 Sy trymg make good as Rough Reject PLYWOOD We Have a Limited Stock Of This Type Plywood With the Roufh Selling at 2.36 a Sheet Other In Proportion Blakely Hout "Tour BalMlaff Sapply Friendi" North Chehalli Phone SH 13177 They are reluctant to put out because of the risk of injury This summer, for example, Gordon Malloy, the Miami of Florida back drafted by Detroit, suffered a knee injury that may end his football with the run In college. Certainly, a football player can be hurt in practice anywhere, but they seem to feel better about being injured while bidding for work By now, everyone versed in football knows that the pros should never lose to the collegians. In an effort to even things up, the Detroit Lions last August played college rules. That kept Bobby Layne on the bench, Buddy Parker not caring to expose his great passer and quarterback to the rigors of defense.

The result was just the opposite of what was hoped for however, the pros turning out to be more adaptable at going both ways So free substitution, for which this game is ideally fitted, is back' The shows the thing, and unrestricted replacement lets the spectators see all the stars. I A college coachoing staff superior to the one of a year ago would be hard to obtain. Assisting Jim Tatum of Maryland were Oklaho- Bud Wilkinson and Iowa's Forest Evashevski, but their squad looked rather foolish trying to run from the split against the Lions, who ran away and hid, 31-fl. Again seeking to give the collegians a break, professional coaches for the first time were named to drill them. They are Curly Lambeau, Hampton Pool, Hunk Anderson and Steve Owen.

The Browns are as efficient as ever despite the loss of the retired Otto Graham. Paul Brown has George Ratterman in the pitching slot and a lot of other guys to go with The Toe Groza. There is no shortage of talent among the 49 from Ameche, Alan of Wisconsin, to Watkins, Bob of Ohio State. Lambeau and his aides hardly can complain about not having anyone to throw the ball. Among those present to do that are Ralph Ougllelml of Notre Dame, California's Paul Larson, Oregon's George Shaw and Ohio State's Dave Leggett.

There are pass-snatchers, runners like Dick Moegle of Rice and mammoth and mobile linemen.
