There will be a preliminary game between the Clover Club team of Fifth Street Methodist Church and a Steelton firemen's team, this game starting at 2.30 o'clock. RAINES WINDUP OPPONENT FOR MAT CHAMPION Wrestling's best known exponent, Jimmy Londos, will appear in this city tonight when he comes to grips with the tough Dick Raines, in the windup to a finish that tops the mat program at Zembo Mosque tonight. The Londos Raines so called world's championship match will head three other matches, one other to a finish and two time tests. The first match will start at 8.30 o'clock.

It will be just five days since Londos emerged the winner over Marshall when Everett was disqualified after he went berserk in i the show in Philadelphia last Friday night, when Londos appears tonight. He has had little time to recuperate from the gruelling test with the blond star and it will be from this angle that Raines will probably work tonight If ever Raines used the elbow, knee and fist, he'll be sure to use It tonight The Texas cowboy realizes that Londos may not be at topnotch form and will undoubtedly yl ll iiniiiy I i i I i in ijii.ii.iin.i. ym i.

The small but snappy Swatara Township High School gave Coach Hoffman and a lot of Steelton High followers the jitters last night before the Steel ton High School team came back to gain a close 35-to-29 victory over Swatara on the Steelton court It was the opening game of the season for both teams, ana oniy Steelton's superior shooting and teamwork in the last period enabled the Blue to emerge unscathed. Several Steelton regulars were out of the lineup and this prevented tne down-river team from exhibiting its best wares. Steelton used eleven players in the lineup but it remained for two regulars, Paukner and Cernugel to pull the game out of the fire. They scored twenty-one points between them. Krout and Hoffman each scored a half-dozen markers.

Vuk- manie led Swatara attack with fourteen points. Kaiiy Decides Steelton took a three-point lead in the first period but Swatara came back to hold a similar lead at half- time. Swatara tallied twelve points to six for Steelton in the second period. Each club scored nine points in the third session, but in the final period Steelton rushed with fifteen points to win. Coach Hoffman in serted his best five in the last period and it stopped Swatara.

The Swatara Reserves scored a 20-to-7 victory over the Steelton Reserves in a preliminary game. Steelton meets another foe tomorrow night at Steelton when the Williamsport High five is entertained. Williamsport will be a real test for Steelton. Varsity Cam STEELTON SWATARA TWP. g.

20. Columbia's varsity football team, the first New York outfit ever chosen to represent the East in the Rose Bowl game, rolled west last night with the cheers of the big town ringing in its ears. The Lion special left the Pennsyl-sylvania station late in the afternoon and the coaches and players were given a royal sendoff. Bands played. Glee clubs gleed; students, citizens, commuters, redcans and noli shouted, and to make the whole thing official Mayor John Patrick O'Brien and his chins were there to wish the Lions luck and tell them New York, all five boroughs, was uenina wem to a man.

It was a sendoff soaked with optimism. There was no mention made of defeat or the possibility of defeat. The Columbias, from Coach Lou Little down, gave off farewell messages that bristled with confidence. "We're going to give them a great game, and they won't have to be good to beat us they'll have to be perfect!" Little said as he hopped aboard. "It was Just eleven years ago that I started for this same Rose Bowl with Washington Jefferson," said End Coach Herb Kopf.

"We were ridiculed to pieces. I remember one California writer saying that all he knew about Washington Jefferson was that both were dead. WelL we didn't get beaten." Star of Bears Grid Team Weds at Chicago CHICAGO, Dec. 20. Jack Man-ders, fullback of the Chicago Bears, professional football champions, and Miss Virginia Grimes of Minneapolis, were married in the City Hall yesterday by Judge Bristow.

Joined the Bears this season and made a reputation as one of the greatest place-kickers in football. He kicked three field goals in last Sunday's championship game with the New York Giants, one of them from the forty-yard line. Sim for Title Bout At Miaul February 21 Bankruptcy Caa First Loaghran Cornea Back Expect $200,009 Gate CopTrtaht.

1932 By Universal Service, Iaa, VIEW YORK. Dec. 20. Official an nouncement will be made today by the Madison Square Garden Corporation of the formal signing of the heavyweight championship bout between Primo Camera, the title-holder, and Tommy Loughran, "the phantom of Philadelphia," who is generally recognized as the American heavyweight champion. The bout will take place In the Madison Square Garden arena at Miami.

on February 22. Camera is said to be getting 37 per cent of the receipts and Loughran 12. This match, with Miami as the scene, was first suggested by the writer through Universal Service, and was immediately taken up seri ously by John Reed Kilpatrick, pres ident of Madison Square Garden. Camera came here from Italy a few days ago in connection with bankruptcy proceedings, and agreed to the match through his American representative. Bill Duffy.

It then remained to secure the consent of Luigi Soresi, the former banker who seems to be the leading master mind in the management of Camera. I have positive assurance that Soresi, who is now in Italy, agreed after a telephone conference with Kilpatrick and Duffy Saturday night CARNERA and Soresi are both required to be here in court on February 1 in connection with the bankruptcy case, and after that is disposed of will immediately proceed South. The Garden attorneys are now engaged in drawing up the contracts. There was much turmoil around the Garden yesterday as the stenographers tried to learn Lough-ran's midd'-? name. The legal minds insisted on that for the contract, but no one seemed to know it.

Loughran's defeat of Jack Sharkey brought him back into the heavyweight limelight recently. Then he got a lucky win over huge Ray Im-pellittiere, the Cold Spring giant, after the referee had stopped the fight and ordered Loughran to his corner because of a badly cut mouth. The boxing commissioners at the ringside overruled the referee, and ordered the fight to continue, Loughran winding up with the decision at the end of twelve rounds. This will be the first heavyweight championship fight in the winter since Jack Dempsey and Bill Bren-nan met indoors at the old arena. It is to be for fifteen rounds.

It is understood that there is a Florida law aginst championship battles, and now tne promoters will get around this remains to be seen. However, if a titleholder met an opponent in even a no-decision bout the titl would necesarily hang on the result. TT IS understood that it will cost 1 uywards of $25,000 to put the Miami arena in condition for the fight. It was built several years ago for the Sharkey-Scott battle, at a cast of around 5175,000, and that is the last fight the Garden has promoted there, though Frank Janu ary Bruen. who built the arena for the Garden, afterwards put on Car nera and Maloney, before Primo was champion.

That fight with Camera's appear. ance in the ring a matter of doubt until tne last minute, drew over $50,000. The Sharkey-Scott fight drew over $200000, though it was a loser. The first big fight in Miami promoted by the late Tex Rickard, though Jack Dempsey wound up as the director after Rickards death was between Sharkey and Stribling, and drew It is believed that Camera and Loughran will draw around $200,000 for low. Camera will outweigh Loughran nearly 100 pounds, but the Doxing experts Believe that ran's style gives him a great chance to beat the Italian giant because Camera is notoriously a light puncher for such a big man.

Loughran and Camera are both signing contracts giving the Garden the rights to them for other fights. Highspire Cagers Bow To Enola in Contests Enola High School boys' and girls' cage teams scored a double win over the Highspire High teams last night on the Enola floor.

GRIDDER AT 50 Although he's 50, Sam Rushton is owner-manager-player of the Providence Huskies, Rhode Island semi-pro football team.

TONITE 8:30 P.M. attempt to land a few blows where It will do the most good (or bad). Londos will have to work fast and pin the broad shoulders of the Texan before Raines wears him down with a few plain and fancy strangles. However, Londos should be easily able to take care of himself. He enters the ring the big favorite, just as he has entered the ring against every foe during the last few years.

He entered the ring in the Quaker City that way, and well he almost came out a former champion. Boesch on Card Before the champion of champions (in Pennsylvania at least) exchanges holds with Raines, a semi-windup will go on in which Paul Boesch will engage Sid Westrich to a finish. Fans clamored for the return match between Boesch and Raines and when Londos was selected for Raines, Bert Bertolini decided to do everything to get Boesch on the same card at least He announced Boesch's return to this show yesterday and shifted the remainder of the card to the benefit of the fans. The Boesch-Westrich match brings together two boys of the same -ali-ber; clean-cut. fast and clever.

It should be one of the evening's outstanding matches. Beaver Removed Hans Steinke, the big German, will tangle with Jack Umberto, young and speedy Italian, in a thirty-minute match. Umberto was to have met Little who was withdrawn in order to permit the appearance of Boesch. The opener stands with Harry Fields engaging big Herbie Freeman. Fields has yet to lose a match here and it is likely that he will continue his fine work aginst the disliked Freeman, the man who once held a high position in the rasslin' ranks.

ANDERSON SEEN ASC.CN.Y.COAGH NEW YORK, Dec. 20. Hartley (Hunk) Anderson, former football coach of Notre Dame, yesterday was mentioned as a possibility for the coaching position at City College. The possibility of Anderson's coming to New York to take over the coaching duties was revealed by Louis Richard Guylay, editor of The Campus, undergraduate publication. Guylay said he had written Anderson querying him on the coaching subject and had received a reply in which Anderson said that he would be "happy to go to New York" to coach City College.

in which he intimated that there would be a change in coaches at the college. The rumor that Dr. Harold J. Parker, present coach, would be "fired" has been consistenly spreading. The dismal showing of the Lavender eleven this season and resultant financial losses led to student and alumni demands that Parker be removed.
