HEY EASE out of the picture so quietly, these old footT ball pros, that casually you mentions hardly their know they are you gone realize until someone names, then that a dozen or so burly fellows who played such an important part in the development of the game over the last decade have been replaced by younger, players still imbued with the zip and dash of collegians.

They' left marks in the National League for the youngsters to shoot at, did some of these retiring veterans. Durable, capable athletes such as Don Hutson and Mel Hein don't appear on the scene too often. Hein was a standout for 14 years. Hutson was a 11-year headache for opposing pass defenses as Green Bay' phantom end. They are just two of the departing greats.

There is Joe Laws; the ex-lowan, who finished a 12-year pro career with the Packers last year. And George Cafego, the ex-Tennssee great who ended four-year career with the Boston Yanks. Gene Ronzani called -it quits after eight years with the Chicago Bears, and Pete Gudauskas retired after a four-year stint at guard for the same team. Conway Baker, the Shreveport figured ten years as a rough, for the -Chicago Cardinals was enough, and Joe Carter tough guard ended his 11-year career as end with the same team last fall. And there was Bill Detroit, vet of seven years, and Andy Farkas, a fine fullback for the Lions for eight seasons.

Green Bay fans will miss squatty Charles (Buckets) Goldenberg, a guard with 18 years pro behind him, and Leland a flashy back, no longer cavorts for the Shatter, for ten years York Giants. Arne Herber, a campaigner for 11 years, finNew his' career with the Giants last fall with brilliant Ished out exhibition against the Philadelphia Eagles, and Ted passing Doyle ended an eight-year pro hitch in 1945 as guard for the Pittsburgh Steelers, And so they depart, easing silently out the back door as the of athletes, storms in the front way to take over the headfresh crop lines, What happens to them? Almost invariably they have saved their and established businesses their own or accepted responmoney positions. No sports bums, these, pro gridders. They are college sible and knew when they started the pro it never could be men, prepared for that day when the old legs just couldn't a career so they take it any longer. clubs often have helped their athletes prepare for the day stowed away for keeps.

The football career probably is about four years.

Golf Group Has Plans for 1947 Todd Ahlberg, treasurer of the St. Joseph City Golf Association, reports that with money on hand at the end of the season, bigger and better golf tournaments are on the schedule for next year. Nelson Thomas, vice-president of the association newly organized la the spring, said last night that there are now some 175 members, and many new ones are expected next year. One of the big events for city is already assured for the Country Club course that will be the scene of the ladies' state golf tournament, to be held in August.

The following year the men's state will be played over the same course. newly reorganized City Golf Association will function on more of a sound basis, With the membership to back it up, officials directing city 'golf affairs have something to work with each rather than to have to sponsor dividual tournament on the entry fees alone. The present organization is set up to have an annual meeting of the entire membership once each year. At that time officers will be elected. Starting from scratch at the opening of the past season, the directors have already done a wonderful job in promoting golf in the city.

Both the city match play and medal play were a great success with plenty of entries for the events. The present directors are Dr. James Kapp, president; Nelson Thomas, vice-president; Gill ham, secretary, and Todd Ahlberg, treasurer. Loses to Mound City MOUND CITY. Oct.

18 cm (Special)- -Pickett came over to Mound to take a drubbing tonight. 34-12, in a six-man football game. Fields dominated the game with his scoring power by running, and snaring passes.

1 will go in the sports history Hooks as the date which the Jockey Club showed its actual power, This august body of -chosen rulers of the mighty billion dollar business of betting a buck on the silken schnozzle of a horse a year back accused Tom Smith, veteran trainer of Mrs. Elizabeth Graham's string of horseflesh, of using a stimulant to make one of the thoroughbreds in his charge go a whit faster. As exclusively predicted in every county in the country, the Jockey Club played a waiting game, fenced prettily, and kept the case open and when Nov. rolls around, as it inevitably will, will have been out of action for the required year, without the charges ever theing proved or any formal punishment being Inflicted. Because, despite pleas by expert lawyers, Smith was never able to get the case on the floor.

His pleas for dropping suspension pending trial were no good. So, actually, Smith has. been proved guilty, and yet 'he has been on the bench for the year at first leveled- against him: The question is not whether Smith, a master trainer, was guilty of allowing a drug to be administered to the horse In this case an incompetent animal named Magnific Duel, The real question is how and why five men- Woodward, William C. Langley, George Widener, David Dows and Ashley Trimble Cole have the power to sit in judgment on their own actions. Because that's just what they did.

The stewards ruled Smith off and then, when Smith brought the matter up, the men who had ruled him off were the men who sat on the dais and diligently refused to reopen the case. That is like a judge handing down a verdict on a lawsuit, and then when the case was appealed, having the same judge bench. To this unlegal (not Illegal) mind this procedure seems all wrong. C. B.

The rough battle with the Rockhurst Hawks last week produced no hampering injuries. Although respectful of Tiger strength, Raven coaches are confident that the speed of the Black and White backs and the strong forward wall will be hard to stop. I This week. Marty Peters, head coach, and Steve Gergeni, his assistant, are drilling the reserves hard in an attempt to field two strong teams. Raven grid' teams have never lost a game to the Tigers in the nine contests the two teams.

In 1942, the last game played, the Ravens handed the Tigers a 33-0 white-washing. The Tigers are for revenge. A look at the respective records indicates a closely matched game.
