dull moment when lippy Pietro Rossi is about the wrestling premises The goateed luxuriously named character whose capacity for digging up masked marvels is amazing will be here Monday night to direct the maneuvering of Superman in a headline shindig with Karl Davis and it is a foregone conclusion that he will project himself actively into the proceedings As a showman Rossi has few equals and no superiors It's a bad night for the little fellow when he doesn't get himself tossed out of the ring or have his face stepped upon by some testy tosser who resents Rossi's constant kibitzing Always Comes Up With Something But for all his eccentricities Rossi always comes up with something and usually it's something good He operates on the theory that when a wrestler he manages Is definitely on the skids it's high time to discard that one and get somebody else to supply the necessary cakes and coffee His latest protege Superman although beaten occasionally here has lost more bouts 'from being disqualified for extreme roughness than by being actually flattened With Superman and Davis supplying the excitement in Monday night's closing number the opener will involve Wayne and Jack League and the semiwind-up will bring together Walter Sirois and Pat Fraley Sports 'Buy' Two From Marshall At to Promote Six to Shippers Centenary College Football Squad Byrd Builds Reserve Power Out at Byrd high school the coaching staff is concentrating on building reserve power in the line and forming a back field that will be made up largely from players who graduated from the junior Jacket team of last year Coach Lee Dobson is seeking a punter to replace Maurice Tinsley one of the letter men graduates and is also trying to decide on a playing scene for his borne games since it appears that changes made on the Byrd gridiron during the past summer will not permit playing on the field before the latter part of October Shreveport to Take On Salty Parker and Catcher Tom Jordan Start Drills Monday Morning ords in the event Judge Landis wants to get finicky about it Parker who was here last night with his club for a double-header with Henderson said other members of his team who
