Notre Dame was credited with 27.72 of a possible 30 points.

ACCORDING TO WORD from Wash-incrtnn Raltimnre fis'ht fans will see a great -little fighter Friday night when Steve Mamakos steps into the ring at the Fallsway Arena against Lambertine Williams, local Negro.

Known as the Golden Greek, Mamakos has been a sensation since he left the amateur ranks to fight professionally. He is 20 years old. He fought three years as a simon pure and has engaged in 22 matches since taking up the game for a livelihood. Only once has he been defeated, and George Abrams, who outweighed him. turned the trick.

Mamakos later evened the score with Abrams. the latter going to the hospital after the scrap. Mamakos gave Ivan Nedomatsky, former University of Maryland star, a lacing and also won from Cal Caeney. a highly regarded New Yorker. Steve had Nedomatsky on the floor, a feat accomplished by no other boxer since Ivan turned professional.

The Greek is known as a busy fighter. He will take a punch to land one. He hits hard with both hands. He will report here tomorrow, and will work out in the National Club's gyrn. Matchmaker Lcs Sponsler announced last night.

Cleveland, Dsc. 5 Hammerin' Henry Armstrong scored a technical knockout over Al Manfredo. of San Francisco, in the third round tonight to defend his world welterweight championship before 12.724 fans. Referee Tony Labranch stopped the bout at 1.45 of the third round.

Manfredo was helpless through the second and third rounds and was wobbling badly and completely defenseless when Labranch stepped between them. Wears Manfredo Out The terrific pace set by Armstrong wore Manfredo out early in the second round and the Franciscan did not throw a punch in the third. Manfredo was not knocked down. Manfredo, boxing nicely from long range, held Armstrong even in the first round as the brown blaster from Los Angeles spent all his time trying to get in close. The round was fast, but no seriously damaging blows were landed.

Armstrong forced the fighting through the second round, and a right to Manfredo's head soon had Al wobbly. Armstrong, pumping pistonlike blows to head and body, made no effort to measure his opponent for a knockout shot. Might Have Won Earlier Tlie Negro might easily have ended it in the second round, but he made sure oi his victory and continued pounding away and wearing Manfredo down. Armstrong weighed pounds and Manfredo 146. The bout, scheduled for 15 rounds, topped the thirteenth annual Cleveland News Christmas charity boxing show, which had another champion and two former champions on the card.

Solly Krieger, National Boxing As sociation champion from Brooklyn, N. punched out a bloodv victory over game Carmen Barth. of Cleve land, in an overweight bout. The durable Krieger gained a Ions lead in the middle rounds, when every blow he swung seemed to take effect. Krieger weighed and Barth Fighters Start Slow They started slow and even in the first round.

Barth took the second when he stunned Krieger with a long right. Earth's flicking left jab kept working, but Krieger's hard in-punching took the third round. Earth's nose spurted blood. Krieger almost completely closed Earth's eye in the fourth. Barth, squinting bravely through his bad eye, kept swinging through the fifth and sixth, but again Krieger's heavier blows told the tale.

Barth was a bloody, easy target as Krieger took the seventh and they slowed down a bit. Both fighters appeared tired in the even eighth. Barth was forced to hold on in the ninth, but they swung toe to toe in the tenth with Krieger having the best of it. Ambers Scores Kayo Lou Ambers, ex-lightweight champion from Herkimer, N. won a technical knockout over Veteran Frankie Wallace, of Cleveland, when Wallace failed to answer the bell for the seventh round.

Wallace was forced to quit because of an injured right hand. It had been an even fight tip to the finish. Wallace, forcing the ficht. took two of the first four rounds and two were even. Ambers, slow in starting, easily won the fifth and sixth with sharpshooting lefts and rights to the chin.

Former Lightweight Champion Benny Leonard was the third man in the ring. Ambers weighed 136 and Wallace 139 'i. Gives Boxing Lesson Petey Sarron, former featherweight king from Birmingham, gave Mike Gamiere a fancy boxing lesson in the first of the ten-rounders. Sarron took six of the ten rounds. losing the first on a foul, while one was even.

Sarron weighed 134, Gamiere 135' i. Sc By the Associated Press New Orleans. Dec. 5 The International League will open its schedule April 20 and close September 10. William Manley.

The committee, in a business meeting, received a request from Fred Matliei. of Detroit, for its assistance in securing the Olympics for that city. Mathel displayed a booklet which included a copy of a formal application for the games signed by Mayor Kichard Iteading.

Matliei said: "We understand certain detini; A pledges have been made to London on the 1944 game, but with vour help perhaps we can get them to think of other years than If we have to wait until 104S it may be too late to revive our community spirit."

To Play New Rivals Columbia Is planning to play Wisconsin anil Tulane in football. for Christmas TBi the Associated Press New York, Dec. 5 Pete Scalzo, young slugger from New York's West side, knocked out Joey Archibald, the New York State recognized world's featherweight boxing champion, with i right hooks in two rounds of a ten- round non-title bout at the St.

Nicholas Arena tonight. Scalzo scaled 1274 and Archibald. 124U. Counted Out At 2.10 Before a near-sellout crowd, largely partisan in his favor. Scalzo uncorked his right hand early in the second session and dropped the little fellow from Pawtucket.

R. I three times before Referee Jimmy Crowley counted him out at 2.10 of the round. In winning. Scalzo, whose attack features a snappy left jab followed by a fast right cross, posted his eighteenth victory in a row. Durine that winning streak he has flattened seven rivals, including tonight's victim.

One Gains, Other Slips The easy triumph for the Italian walloper gave a hard push to his campaign for a featherweight title shot. For Joey, who went down and out when the third right hook landed just in front of his ear in the second round, the kayo did no good to his hopes of universal title recognition. The New York State Commission named him titleholder after he defeated Mike Belloise some months ago, but the National Boxing Association decided to withhold recognition until after he had met the winner ct a bout between Freddy Miller and Leo Rodak. These three had been designated as outstanding among the 127-pounders afsr Henry Armstrong relinquished the crown some months ago. Now.

-however, Scalzo has propelled himself squarely into the picture. Bill Boyd Knocks Out Buck Everett In 7th Washington. Bill rnyl. r.iriiiin-!i.im. knorkerl out Buck rf Washington, in tht round of a tt'ii-romnl main hont on a tmxinjr tonight.

Doc. 5 Enough baseball conversation to fill an encyclopedia echoed through jammed hotel lobbies today, but out of a hub-bub of first-round forays little oustanding news developed.

The first deal of the "hot stove" league sessions found the Cincinnati P.eds selling pitcher Joe Cascarella to Buffalo. Tne announcement of that deal came almost simultaneously with the signing of Burleigh Grimes, former Brooklyn Manager, as pilot of the Montreal club on a two-year contract. Hold Private Meetings While one of the greatest advance influxes of baseball leaders invaded the city for the thirty-seventh sessions of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues, several circuits drifted oft into private rooms for their annual meetings. Many big major league deals have been listed in rumor ranks since the 1938 season closed, but only a sprinkling of changes reached news stages after day-long huddles. "Things won't Mart popping until Wednesday, at least," said a veteran delegate, "but you might expect most anything to happen from these corner huddles." Out of the rumor section came one that Pinkey Whitney, third "aseman of the Philadelphia Phillies and a 10-year man, likely would sign as manager of the Oklahoma City team.

Whitney, Philadelphia officials disclosed, would be given his unconditional release should he find a managerial post desirable. Seek Cardinal Stars Rumors continued that the New York Giants were highly interested in obtaining either Johnny Mize or Ducky Medwick from the St. Louis Cardinals. Major Trammell Scott, Atlanta sportsman, was reelected president of the Southern Association for a three-year term, and the Texas League voted to continue -warding its pennant to the winner of the post-season Shaughnessy playoff. The opening business session of the minor leagues is Wednesday, with Julge W.

G. Bramham making his annual presidential report which will etrike a keynote of uniformity that will include a recommendation that all championships be awarded on the basis of games won and lost. Would Drop Playoffs recommendation would force all irjinor league clubs to drop the Shaughnessy playoff as a pennant -de termining medium. Other proposed rule changes would place all leagues cn a uniform basis as regards class players and official scoring. Thirty-five amendments will be considered by the National Association at its chief business session on Thurs day.

One of the most important is one that would prevent major league clubs from entering into schemes for the ac cuisition, transfer and retention of players, such as promising sand-lotters. Grimes Succeeds Maranville Montreal, Dsc. 5 JP) Burleigh Grimes, the old spitball pitcher and more recently manager of the Brook lyn Dodgers, was named manager of the Montreal Royals, of the Inter rational League, today. Grimes was signed to a two-year contract, filling the post held by- Rabbit Maranville until late last sea fon. First Baseman Alex Hooks sue ceeded Maranville in the closing weeks cf the 38 campaign.

Saliva Test Tor Trojan Horse AND I like the paragraph in one of the Herald Tribune football stories of the Irish-U. S. C. game, asserting: "There was a rumor tonight that the Notre Darners would demand that the Trojan war horse, supposedly a slightly spavined animal, be given the saliva test." Thank goodness there wasn't one of those Uallno ringer case charges to be investigated afterward. Life, after all, is short.

PEAKING of this brings to mind the fact that while Duke has a formidable record to tote out to the Rose Bowl, the Durham outfit is headed into a game where finnesse will have to give way to a sinew-socko brand of gridiron technic. They are rough and tough out in the Western reaches. Their strategics are of the runaway freight train variety, QNE well-known commentator on the Coast refers to it all as "dumb-power" football. Power enough to wear down a team built on the more clever tactical lines. Just what all this will mean in the Duke business is something to guess, with no holds barred.

Vander MeerTo Undergo Tonsillectomy Today Cincinnati. Dec. (P) Johnny Vander Meer, only major league pitcher to hurl two successive no-hit. no-run games, made reservations in Christ Hospital tonight for a third tonsillectomy tomorrow. Vander Meer underwent his first tonsillectomy in and three years ago surgeons duplicated the operation.

Vander Meer quoted his surgeon as expressing belief that the throat condition might have contributed to an ear infection that required surgery last mid-season. leading up-and-down team of the year. according to an Associated Press dispatch. It will be noted that he ranked it fourth. Another surprising rating was that of Texas Christian.

Many experts thought Texas Christian rated a crack at Southern California January 2 in the Rose Bowl. They simply could not see Duke. Duke rates in the writer's book, and it runs Notre Dame a close race under the Dickinson system. Dr. Dickinson said he based his ratings on the strength of opposition faced.

The caliber of Notre Dame's opposition in its five hardest games the number he has, always used for comparisonwas higher than the caliber of Duke's opponents in its five strongest contests, he said. Under his system. Tennessee, Oklahoma and Texas Christian, all undefeated and untied, did not have schedules difficult enough to merit higher ranking. Dr. Dickinson pointed out.

ir ir fir Irish Will Receive Knute Rockne Trophy A RESULT of being rated first bv Dr. Dickinson. Notre Dame will receive the Knute Rockne trophy, annually presented by Notre Dame's Four Horsemen, the great 1924 back-field in which Elmer Layden teamed with Jimmy Crowley, Fordham's head coach; Harry Stuhldreher, of Wisconsin, and Don Miller. Take A Bow, Mr. Scherr ARYLAND MAY not be regarded as one of the leading boxing cen ters, but it knows what it takes to make a good fighter.

Stanley Scherr. chairman of the Maryland Commission, has been striving to obtain feath erweight championship recognition for Leo Rodak, of Chicago, for almost a year. Rodak was recognized as champion after he won decisively from Jackie Wilson here. Other featherweights were pushed to the front by various commissions. Re cently it was decided that Rodak and Joey Archibald were the leading contenders and the National Boxing Association ordered them to fight for the title within 60 days.

Archibald, who also was regarded as the champion by the New York commission, was knocked out last night in New York by Pete Scalzo. If that doesn't make Rodak boss of the featherweights, there ain't no justice, fir si -iV Eastern Honors To Carnegie Tech CARNEGIE TECH was down on the list in national ratings under the Dickinson system, but it came out first in the voting for the annual August V.

M. npOMORROW the baseball meeting of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues of America starts official business at New Orleans. A lot of baseball deals will be laid, even if few are really hatched. One of the most important pieces of business at this time appears to be the probable job of erasing the present agreement by which major outfits chisel into the scholastic and sandlot fields to sign up players for nothing by the simple expedient of having an agent sign them for one of their minor farms. Landis doesn't like the way corners are cut to evade the spirit of the rule.

And also there is a faction which for some reason wants the playoffs system eradicated. It. is difficult to believe that any minors would be silly enough to allow themselves to be talked out of something that has been a lifesaver for many teams. A dispatch from New Orleans says that if this anti-playoffs movement is successful the old-time method of awarding the pennant to the team that has the highest winning percent age at the close of the regular season will again be in vogue. To which one might remark that in the Shaughnessy playoffs the club closing the regular schedule on top is the league champion and is re warded with the usual pennant.

The result of the playoffs has nothing to do with the flag. And from John Ogden, at New Orleans, comes the announcement that Catcher Milton Gray has been sold to Williamsport; that the deal is an outright sale. This means Milton is definitely through as a Bird, or would seem to be at any rate. Whether it also means that Billy Atwood is to gravitate back to the Bird catching ranks is something you can speculate on as well as the next. Atwood, as you know, has been exercising his talents for the Phils for several seasons.

Hold everything. Good Job If You Do It Eight LSO one is informed that several of the smaller minor loops are of a mind to have some of the power taken from Judge Bramham, the Landis of the little fellows. It appears that what they object to is the way in which Branham has hopped on the necks of some of their players with suspensions. The feeling is that the league presi dents involved should have the sus pension power not Bramham. That would be fair enough, providing the league heads realized that suspensions, while unpleasant duties, are none the less very important in the matter of maintaining the necessary degree of discipline.

JOHNNY VANDER MEER, Cincy opjcaia UCMllieu lO CIO things in threes. You recall, of course, that he was the first major league flipper to toss three straight shutout games. He disappeared into the mists there after with an ailing wing. But with the '39 season a long way off, Johnny has busted loose again. He is having his third tonsil operation.

One is too many for most people. Youngest Takes Charge Of The Oldest JJEWS that young Alfred Vanderbilt nas Been elected president of the Maryland Jockey Club beats pleas antly upon the ear drums.

The materials from which "Zerone" is made are so effective you need comparatively little "Zerone" to achieve protection.

That's economy. Properly used, replacements of "Zerone" are little indeed and that's economy, too. Tests prove that the mixture of "Zerone" and water passes off engine heat better than water alone. That improves engine performance. "Zerone" in a clean cooling system prevents formation of rust and corrosion avoids power losses, helps save fuel and oil.
