And there's no immediate prospect for a shindig to iron it out. for Vlscusl says Pep has to be on hand for the parade Hartford Is tossing In his honor today, and then will have to rest up from the effort.

Now, this may not have made for the bloodiest brawl in the book as a matter of fact, with Chalky miss- lng and Willie back-pedalling It grew considerably boring at times but It proved highly entertaining to the crowd of 10,521 who tossed into Mike Jacob's money I.ITTLF.

BI POWFRFI Marshall County, West Virginia (Pop. 3 500 will have two boys on the college all-star basketball squad that plays the Oshkosh. pros at Clnago next week. Rudy Baric of Bcnwood and Hoger (fihorty) Hicks of Monndsvllle, both chosen for the all-star, live eight miles apart, played on opposing high school teams, teamed together at West Virginia U. and now are co-coaches of the mountaineer court squad since Coach Dyke Haese has gone Into the navy.

HELP. HELP Not knowing the answers, we'll pans along these questions from Hank Wolfe of the Richmond (Va.) News Leader as received: 1) St. (fly SMoelatrd Prti) Today a year ago Ken Overlln, 163', outpointed Al Hostak, 162, In ten rounds at New York. Three years ago Ohio State signed for grid game with Pitt in 1940, marking resumption of Big Ten relations with Panthers after four-year lapse. Five years ago New York Giants, eastern leaders tn National football league, upset Green Bay Packers, 10-0.

SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY Sing Sells Bob Into Slavery! the touchdown man who makes the ren of the league shudder, lias had no part in the entertainment. Now, this may be just an accident, but you ran bet the family sugar ration card that Hutson has been In there trying. The most likely explanation Is that, despite his records for receiving and his all-time high for yardage gained with aerials, against the Giants lie -1 9 New York Giants, he hasn't even had a hot-dng with or without mustard, And tomorrow. In the headllnrr on the National leagues four-game program, the greatest scoring pow-eihouso the loop has ever known collides again with his all-time wham-my, when the Green Bay Parkers piie Into the Polo Grounds to tangle with the Giants. As far as the league's sectional team championships go, this shindig has no more bearing on the situation than the weekly meeting of the H007.lt Falls sewing rlrcle, for 'the Chicago Hears and the Washington Redskins have those pretty well "stanlied' 'away.

Tli Hears take on the Lions at Detroit this time and Washington entertains the befuddled Brooklyn Dodgers, while the Chicago Cardinals move Into Pittsburgh for the other games this week. There's no doubt, however, that the Giants have tlie hex on Don. The Packers' great end has scored 71 touchdowns in his eight years Big 8 Conference (Br SMMiBlrS rrH) Big Eight members showed plen-ty of wallop against outside teams last night as five conference elevens turned back as many opponents. Supercharged by Bill Cadenhead, the loop's top Individual scorer, Oreenville's Hornets bnued Into Arkansas for a 23-0 decision over Pine Bluff. Cadenhesd marched to three touchdowns, galloping 57 yards to open scoring In the first quarter.

Clre's passing and running teed up two of the scores and he hit Alexander with a payoff pass. McComb's Tigers squeered by tuning Newton 19-13, punching Its tallies across from short range. Urr.bright plunged to two touchdowns from Insids the six yard mark and McGuffee counted from the Newton three. At Jackson. Whin.

These totals, incidentally, went to make up the all-time high turnout for a featherweight fuss, out-shln-lng by quite a bit the fi1.65fi paid to see Benny Bass and Tony Can-zonerl clout each other around 14 years ago. 51 th Victory Yet, now that Willie has the championship this fight was his 54th straight victory in a two-year professional career featherweight follies are still playing the two-a-day circuit.

For Pep still only owns the half of the crown recognized by New York State's athletic commission and its affiliates. Pittsburgh Jackie Wilson has v. luiin u' PKntiiab uir U'' defensive coach, fitout Steve Owen the man with the ample middle, New Defense fitout Rteve has won a couple of championships and lost a few with his Giants, but while his fellows may not score a lot, there's no denying the fact the other guys don't hit pay-dirt often, either. Briefly, he's as good a defensive coach as has come down the pike, and while they've never come to blows, you can't blame Don for not feeling exactly pulsy-waUv about the matter, anyway, Ktout Is setting up a new defense against Don for tomorrow 'the rest of tlie Jeague'll tell you to build a brick wall). It's to put the best three Giant defen Christopher school of Richmond ha defeated Benedictine high In football 15 years In succession.
