i A 1 SATURDAY EVENING HXHRISBURG TELEGRAPH OCTOBER 10, 1936 TQWCWrai(fe tn inf. riotin these thouehts the big banquet plans for the Jimmy DeShong dinner on October 28th are progressing rapidly Porter Hammond is chairman of the rnmmittwnn Arraneements and Dlans a party that will make the natives talk about it for many months Bill McClintock is down for a toastmastering assignment and some of the speakers include Herb Pennock. Manager Bucky Harris, Jimmy Foxx and others close to Jimmy in the big show Tickets may be procured from any sports writer and other members of the committee, the membership of which was published in the Friday Evening Telegraph. The affair is not a stag party and all the gals who care to attend may do so by plunking down a buck and a half for a ticket You'll read considerable about it in the papers from now on, so set the date aside. WU1C1 iug league iiajvw being invited as special honor guests, and they include Bill Myers, the West Fairview lad who captained the Cincinnati Reds the past two years; Fred Frankhouse, of the Brooklyn pitching staff, and Les Bell, vintage of 1926 27, a star third baseman of the World's Champion Cardinals of that day Come out and honor Jimmy, the lad who won eighteen games for Washington while losing only seven, and the lad, chiefly responsible for Washington finishing in the money.

ON THE LATE FRED HARRY BEN THEURER, one of the A. P. fixit men was telling me of how they used to heckle the late Fred Harry when he conducted the cigar store at Third and Walnut A wag would call up and say, "Fred. I'm in bed and the shades are down is it raining will there be a ball game'' and another would call on a rainy day and ask Fred who would pitch that day, and upon being informed that if they looked out they could see it was raining, would reply with: "Well, if they played in the rain who would be the batteries?" and Mr. Harry would come back with "Duck and Drake and Raincoat and Macintosh." Every chappie and his brother is conducting one of those football and this sucker is a sucker for all of them due to the tough engagements so early this season, the promoters are cleaning up on the racket Sam Gilman is back in town after a three weeks' vacation although I don't know why Sam needs a vacation unless that sign outside is hard to lean upon those who remember Jackie Fields as the former World's Welterweight champion can glimpse him in the cinema now at the Regent in which spot he acts as boxing instructor to Freddie Bartholomew Jackie has done what all former pugs appear to do take it on and add it especially around that midriff region but you recognize the Fields technique "The Devil Is a Sissy" compared to those kids in the picture.

PITT MEETING MEL McCLINTOCK claims there never was a team with so much football material as whai Temple possesses this season he saw them operate against Mississippi last week and marvelled at their numbers, although apparently weak defensive formations if that is the case, it won't last long because Pop Warner is never weak long in a spot or formation a great game this year would be Pitt versus Temple similar systems and both possessing great batches of material Tuesday evening of next week is Pitt night the night when the Pitt alumni crowd hereabouts get together for a session and gracing the speaking program that night are Jimmy DeShong, Eugene "Shorty" Miller and Bill McClintock all capable of giving an interesting discussion of their chosen topic showing what good guys we are, we'll throw the meeting open to any football or baseball fans who want to attend and get the lowdown on the World Series from Jimmy; football officiating from Gene Miller and Pitt from Bill McC. come early and avoid the rush a considerable number of tickets are already in the hands of scalpers. HEAVY BOYS ON MADRID CARD One of the most imposing arrays of amateur boxers from Central Pennsylvania and Maryland has been assembled by Promoter Gene Otto and Matchmaker Bill Granoff for next Thursday's parade of heavyweights at the second show of the season at the Palestra. In the program of ten bouts, battlers weighing less than 150 pounds will be relegated to the preliminaries so that the heavier entries can slug away at their opponents in the headliners. Word that the fightin' delegation of Pottsville boys will be here Thursday night was received this week and set at rest Granoff's worries as to who will be presented in support of the feature matches.

Web Rhodes, 165, and Joe Gar rish, 155, are the biggest boys on the Pottsville list but what they lack in weight they more than make up for in ability. In addition to this pair, other invaders will be Stan and Mat Perock, brothers, 135 and 125, respectively, and Johnny Kruss, 142. They hold victories over some of the best boys of their class in the State and are bound to make an impression here. Vying for honors with the Pottsville boys will be five mittmen from Baltimore, including Jake Marks, 185, who is slated to battle Goose McCaslin, of Lock Haven, in the windup. Others are Johnny Keiger, 185, Carl Evers, 175, Vic Finannzio, 145.

and Joe Jeppi, 125. Those accompanying McCaslin here from the Williamsport sector are Joe Buzzell. 132, Joe Machovich, 175, who faces Mickey Sinkovitch, in the semi windup; Jake Jenkins, 147, and Gerald Leaper. Many of these fighters are worthy of windup billing and actually have fought in that spot in previous amateur shows.

Maurice La Chappelle will attempt to snap Tony Siano's long winning streak when the pair clash before Reading fans, Tuesday night, October 13, in Promoter Bert Bertolini's feature finish attraction at the Armory. La Chappelle now stands out as one of the leading contenders for the world's heavyweight title now held by Dean Detton, conqueror of Dave Levin, and plans to challenge the Salt Lake City flash before the New York State Athletic Commission if victorious over Siano. The Siano La Chappelle encounter should develop into a spectacular encounter from start to finish with both grapplers waging a clever duel for supremacy. Promoter Bert has carded a strong preliminary bill in support of the feature number. Al Bisignano, colorful Des Moines Italian, will make his debut here in the 45 minute semi final, pitted against Freddie Kupfer, a rough house mauler from New York City.

Count Von Zuppe, mustachioed German aristocrat, will exchange grips with Jimmy Spencer of Qoston in the main preliminary tiff and "Tiger" Flowers Johnstone, brilliant Negro heavyweight contender, will mix with Paddy Mack of Ireland in the second half hour battle, while Barney Crosneck of Chicago takes on George Wagner. NEW BLOOM FIELD WINS Mifflintowii, Oct. 10. After trailing for three quarters the New Bloomfield High eleven came to life to score a touchdown and then convert for the extra point to down Mifflintown, 7 to 6, before more than 1000 spectators. The two machines were about evenly matched and staged a bitter battle throughout the contest.

Both stood out on defense. WEST SHORE TEAMS MEET HARD FOE ON GRID TODAY Camp Hill and Lemoyne have stiff games facing them today on foreign fields. Camp Hill will play at Middletown. while Lemoyne will go to Millersburg. The Camp Hill Lions wound up their preparations for the Middle town tiff yesterday on a wet field.

The Lions are set for the heavy Middletown machine, and while they will enter the contest underdogs, they hope to come through with their second win of the season. The starting lineup will probably be: Naugle and Westphall, ends; Beattie and Martin, tackles; Hub bel and Speck, guards; Powell, center; Oberman, quarterback; Pembroke and Wolf, halfbacks, and Kuhn, fullback. Facing a team that is about as tough as Hummelstown was the previous week. Coach Shorty Gasull finished the getting ready process for the Millersburg game with a brisk workout yesterday.

guards; Wagoner, center; DeHaven, quarterback; P. Hilbish and Myers, halfbacks, and K. Hilbish, fullback. WAYNESBORO GAME Waynesboro, Oct. 10.

Rip Engle's Waynesboro High School Golden Tornado will inaugurate relationships with Shippensburg High School, a member of the Southern Pennsylvania Conference, here on the high school field this afternoon. Engle has assembled a powerful team this year and the Blue and Gold warriors are picked to defeat the Maroon and Grey Invaders with ease, although Shippensburg has an Impressive defensive record when lt Is revealed that not a touchdown has been scored against the Eurlch men in two games, both of which resulted in scoreless stalemates.

MARYLAND TEAM AT CAMP HILL The West Shore Rangers polo team will play the Maryland Polo Club at Camp Hill, Sunday, it was definitely announced late last night after the latter team put in a chal lenge to the local club for another series of games in an effort to avenge the two defeats dealt it in earlier games.

Local officials had previously planned to put on an intra club game between the Roamers and the Rangers, but they discarded this plan when the Free State team's challenge came through. "We can play the intra club game Eater," Frank Frownfelter said. Maryland Leader Carl A. Jackson, son of the Mayor of Baltimore, will lead the Maryland team into action tomorrow afternoon. Jackson, whose mounts will be shipped here today, will probably come here by airplane if weather conditions are favorable.

Jackson will play the No. 1 position. The veteran, J. B. Jamison, will again be at No.

2 for the invading team Stiles Tuttle will handle the No. 3 position, and Jack Mowbray will again be the No. 4 or back player. Dr. L.

T. Hempt, J. Forrest Hempt, Glenn Smith and Frank Frownfelter will ride in that order for the Rangers and they hope to mark up their seventh straight win, and the local club's twenty seventh ictory in thirty four games. The game will begin at 3 o'clock, with Sam Williams again riding the range as the ninth man on the field. FOOTBALL SCORES Pincipia 25, Moberly J.

Wolfe, Leb anon left halfback, took the opening kickoff and raced 85 yards for a touchdown yesterday as Lebanon defeated Hershey High here, 12 to 7. Lebanon's team, which is in the process of development, had plenty of trouble on its hands in handling the Hershey club. The winners are absorbing their new system of play as taught by their hew coach, Sammy Angle, rather slowly. The Cedars kept hustling, but were unable to penetrate the Hershey defense again until the second quarter. After pushing the ball to the 20 yard line on a series of line plunges Wolfe scored the second touchdown on a 22 yard pass from Achenbach.

After each score the Cedars failed to convert for the extra point. As the game drew near the end, Hershey launched a drive from near midfield which pushed the ball to scoring territory. Lebanon held, and after taking the ball attempted to pass. Fasnacht, Hershey center, intercepted a pass and romped about 25 yards for a touchdown. W.

CONFERENCE TILTS ON TODAY'S LIST Important Games Will Be Played Here and at Steelton This is the day, rain or shine, grid warriors will go into battle with a determination to wipe out previous defeats or add to their already series of victories. All scholastic games today are of importance as they are on the Conference list. One of these games will be played here on Fager Field when John Harris meets Easton High. The other is on the Steelton card with Allen town the opponents for the Steam Rollers.

Indications point to close games with local team favorites to win. Indications are that the games will be played on wet fields. The Easton High team is big, generally speaking, and its power is indicated in the two victories it has already gained over Wilson Borough and Lower Merion High School elevens. Always a dangerous opponent, Easton began to play John Harris High back in 1927. Through nine years, however, Easton has been able to defeat the local club in only that first year and last year.

Many of the previous games were played with many John Harris High ineli gible players on the sidelines. Today, eight gridmen, who previously saw no action, will be available for varsity duty. Of these, however, only one or two have a chance to displace any of the regular starters in the Hill team's lineup. Both clubs will present heavy lines today, matching tackles that tip the scales at more than 200 pounds. Easton has a hard charging fullback in Beef Prime, a colored back, who will vie for plunging honors with the local team's line smashing Joe Rollins.

Another interesting Conference battle will be presented on Cottage Hill, Steelton, when the Allentown High Canaries attempt a comeback at the expense of a light but speedy Steelton High School eleven. Three Lower county high schools return to their home fields this afternoon to do battle before the local paying gentry. Middletown will meet Camp Hill in their first home game since September 19, when they took a heart breaking defeat from Mechanicsburg; Hummelstown will entertain Duncannon, and Patton Trade School will come to Hershey to meet the Hershey Industrial School. Middletown and Hummelstown lost last week and are anxious to again break into the win column, while the Hershey vocational lads wen over an inferior Tresslers Orphans School eleven. The following men will start the game for Steelton: Thomas Fur janic, left end; John Mahalic, left tackle; Dibs Matesevi left guard; Daniel Yanich, center; Mike La panno, right guard; Dusan Cuck ovic, right tackle; Happy Hill, right end; Joe Cernugel, quarterback; Sammy Green, left halfback; Joe Trdenic, right halfback, and John Grgic, fullback.

BUCKNELL IS DEFEATED BY MIAMI Lewisburg, Oct. 10, (JP) The Bucknell University football team suffered its first defeat of the football season last night at the hands of the University of Miami eleven of Florida after a last minute drive failed within ten yards of the goal to overcome a 6 to 0 lead. The Southerners' touchdown came in the second pericd after two plays brought them sixty five yards. Vac carrelli gained fifteen, placing the ball in midfield. Panker then flipped an underhand pass to Masterson who slipped down the sidelines fifty yards for a score.

Two minutes before the end of the game Bucknell recovered a Miami fumble and advanced to the visitors' ten yard stripe. But on the next play Panker intercepted a pass by Jones to end Bucknell's scoring threat. Miami Bucknell Kichefski, le Conti, le Monk. It Mazanek. lt Shinn.

(r3)Sp ALAN GOULD There would seem to be no con nection between the Olympic games in Berlin and the football prospects at the University of Nebraska this fall, but the fact remains the Cornhuskers may owe much of what success they have to' the world contests. The connection hinges up on Sam Francis, who is starting his third year as Nebraska fullback. As a 195 pound sophomore, Fran cis, who kicks, passes and eats from the wrong side, Jumped right into a regular job in the backfield. He was just a big, shy, self conscious lad who had everything but the assurance his ability warranted. As a junior he again was one of the big guns of attack and defense for a fine Nebraska team, but he still was the same shy, nervous youngster, rather surprised that critics should think him so good when he knew he wasnt.

During the off season Sam started putting th shot hither and yon. It helped him keep In condition, and he had been pretty good at it during his high school CRUCIAL GRID GAMES ON TODAY'S CARD PROMISE BIG THRILLS MARYSVULE SHOOT SHOWS GOOD SCORES; THOSE WHO WON MarysviHe, Oct. 10.

Oct. 10. The Carlisle Medical Field Service School football team undefeated in three games this year, meets probably its toughest opponent of the season this Sunday afternoon when the Red and White gridders oppose a powerful Quantico Marines eleven from Quantico, Va. The Army Post has never beaten the Dixie rival, although three years ago the Medicos spurted in the late minutes of the game to tie the Marines, 6 6, at Quantico. The Marines have defeated the Army Post five times, and are favored to halt Carlisle's winning streak this week.

G. N. Powell, coach of the Medicos, will pit a veteran combination against the Marines. Gil No we, quarterback, who was injured last week, will probably be available for duty against the Marines, giving the Army Posts its full strength for a tough battle. EASY FOR MECHANICSBURG Mechanicsburg, Oct.

10. Me chanicsburg High School, undefeated in its first three games against Middletown, Hershey arid Newport High Schools, opens its bid for the Southern Pennsylvania In terscholastic Conference gridiron championship this afternoon against George Forney's Gettysburg High School outfit on Memorial Field.

Good, of course, but a forty seven foot mark doesn't win many big time events. Under the veteran Schulte's patient instruction Sam gradually increased his distance. Soon he was touching fifty feet occasionally. And when the Olympic trials rolled around, Sam tossed his way right into a place on the team. Sam was learning his lesson.

In a barnstorming tour over Europe following the games he consistently got fifty one feet or better, and he piled up an Impressive string of first places. His best toss was S3 feet 1 inch, which surprised him as he wasn't feeling so steady at the time, having just completed his first airplane ride. When he returned to Lincoln just in time to start football practice this fall, he was a self assured, poised young man, at home on a prairie or in a crowd. New York, Oct. 10, P) King Football rules the sports world to day with upwards of a half million henchmen expected to pay him tribute from the spectators' seats at a half dozen or so of the biggest games.

They lost the ball on downs and Biglerville kicked out to mid field. Two more penalties halted drives which might have resulted in scores otherwise. In the second half Keller hit off tackle for a six yard gain, but Enola was penalized five yards for offside. On an identically same play the next time Keller, behind perfect interference, sloshed through the mud for 42 yards to cross the goal line standing up. Mose Conrad's try for the extra point from scrimmage failed.

Wolff, Biglerville right end, was taken out o. the game in the first quarter with a fractured arm. Biglerville Enola Kane, le Wertz. le Bucher, It Simpson, lt Ogden, lg Schellhase. lg Ecker, McBride, Hallabaugh, rg Walters, rg Shank, rt Kroh, rt Wolff, re Kapp.

Catholic High, of Harrisburg, presented a well drilled lineup here last night and defeated Lewistown High School Panthers, 6 to 2. The first half was a nip and tuck battle with no scoring.

The game was played through a drizzling rain. McMahon coming in fast, fell on the ball for Catholic. McMahon made four yards on two off tackle plays, and Quenzer took the ball on a reverse for a first down. Krovic added five, and Quenzer picked up two more. Krovic carried the ball through tackle to the two yard line, and then went around the end, shaking off four tacklers for the touchdown.

The pass, Quenzer to McMahon, was grounded on the try for point. Apparently angered by the touchdown, the Lewistown big Panther went on a touchdown drive immediately after the kickoff. The Catholic line tightened on the twenty yard stripe and they took ball as the third period ended. Quenzer punted out of danger, and the Catholic team again held the opponents. Lewistown punted to McMahon who was downed in his tracks.

A series of punts gave Lewistown the ball on the forty yard marker, and they made a first down on three plays. Catholic again held, and Crozier punted to the two yard line. With his back to the wall, Quenzer got off a long punt, but the ball was brought back, when he stepped over the line to kick. Lewistown was given a safety. The scoring stopped there, although both teams fought viciously.

Catholic was successful in holding their lead and marking up tneir nrst victory of the year. Catholic Lewistown Harder, le Stralo (ci.

10, (JP) Joe Louis today motioned for his pin boy, Promoter Mike Jacobs, to set 'em up in another alley. The Brown Bomber scored the third straight "strike" of his comeback campaign at the inaugural show of Promoter Jacobs' Hippodrome indoor season last night by knocking out Jorge Brescia, giant Argentine, in the third round of a scheduled ten rounder. Brescia rolled over on his blocd spattered face, a badly beaten victim, after two minutes and twelve seconds of both tame and furious fighting. Louis was far too ring wise for the young "Bull of the Pampas" and he hit too hard. Brescia, sent into fight the ring's most fearsome puncher after only eight unimportant battles, impressed the crowd of 5200 paid spectators with his game ness under fVi, but that was all.

Apparently frightened by Louis' reputation, the "young bull" opened cautiously, forcing the Bomber to do all the leading. He didn't throw a single punch for the first minute of battling as Lcuis backed him into the ropss and hammered him with rights and left hooks. Brescia nailed Louis with a long right to the eye that made the Bomber blink but it was his best and only good punch of the fight. TEMPLE T0PLAY BOSTON OWLS Philadelphia, Oct. 10.
