Swarthy, little Manuel went back to his lettuce farm In El Centro, Wednesday after a successful ventoW In the cauliflower mar ket Tuesday night in which he safely defended his bantamweight title for the eighth time this year with a 15-round decision over Benny Goldberg. The snarling Mexican youth, who punches as hard as a middleweight, tossed his right-hand smashes at the elusive Goldberg for the full 15 rounds, but hard as he tried he connect even for a knockdown. The slippery challenger, who held two previous decisions over his foe when they had Just emerged from the amateur ranks, fell back on his best evasive action to last the route and only infrequently landed punches from his puzzling southpaw stance.

NEW YORK. Here we go for one last fling at trying to give you football winners with due thanks to the good luck charms that have brought us this far with an .811 average (233 winners, 53 defeats, 10 ties). THURSDAY. Texas-Texas A. and The Southwest conference title and a Cotton Bowl bid is at stake.

Both have perfect leagne records but the Longhorns were beaten by Southwestern (Texas) In a conference tilt and the Aggies had to settle for a scoreless tie with Texas Tech. by the eenle-meenie- method, Texas. Comell-PennsylvahiR: Bob Odell to bow out fn a blaze of glory and lead the Quakers to victory. Penn. Colgate-Brown; The Red Raiders from the Chenanao Valley are not In the class wiTh Army so look for the Bruins to bound from their defeat at the hands of the Cadets with Doc Savage showing the way in a high-scoring affair.

Brown. Arkansas-Tulsa: The Oklahomans, headed for their second straight undefeated season and a possible bowl bid, are not going to be stopped by a weak Razorback eleven. North Carolina Pre-flight-N. C. State; The Pre-flighters are strong this year but should knock off the Wolf pack with ease Jayt to Lose.

Kansas-Fort Riley: The soldiers given much consideration but plenty of power there and that spells defeat for the Jayhawkers. St. A couple of weak sisters. On a hunch, St. SATURDAY.

Navy-Army: Anyway you look at It. this Is a tough one. Each was beaten by Notre Dame. Army tied Penn, which Navy beat. With the belief that the Middies have the depth and the line power to stop Glenn Davis we give you Navy.

Southwestern Louisiana Ran dolph Field: And talking about tough ones, try this one on your piano. Unbeaten The old scores again. Kenesaw Mountain Landis, who was hired to clean up baseball after the famous 1919 Black Sox scandal, Tuesday ruled William D. president the Philadel- 3 i a Phillies, out of game for life for allegedly betting on his own ball 2 lub. Landis, now 77 years old, made a distinct hit with the ODT last season by ordering all major league clubs to train in the north.

He made the same jgclsion for 1944 only a month back but was criticized by some moguls for taking such early action. But it is quite evident that the "old knows what he is doing. He has kept the game clean and he haa kept it alive in these war tom days. There will probably be no hints of his retirement for some time to come. We gleaned the following from Stoney column.

The Sports Parade, In the Milwaukee Sentinel. We heartily agree with comments: Football proved its case this season, Its first under full wartime restrictions and demands. I have been asked many times if 1 thought vye would have football next year providing there are no major changes in the war pattern. Why not? If ever a sport proved its value football did this season. Not in any hackneyed "relaxation from the war way, not in any morale building sense, but just bettause football is what It typical American game of sock and be socked, a game that builds men out of boys, a game that teaches more lessons, builds more character in defeat than it 6ues In victory.

Right at home we have had this proven. Right at Wisconsin and Marquette. Both have had far greater teams, far more successful seasons. But show me a season where the teams and the coaches-don't forget had to show more rrsourcefulness, more stick- to-it-iveness, had to overcome more yet came up, game after game, with eyes to the fray ahead, eyes not lowered by defeat, but looking forward to the victory that eluded Wisconsin all but once, the Hilltops all but thrice. method of coaching producing results at Annapolis BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

NEW YORK. (NANA). Capt. John Whelchel. Navy coach, an instructor to be feared not only because of a mind sharply attuned to offensive but because of magnetic miUi- ence upon his players.

A careful coach, he proceeds from point to point in team development, hi.s eye always upon cnicial 4 )yola basketball CHICAGO. Loyola university of Chicago, for many years one of the leaders In non-conference basketball competition, will not have a team this season, college officials have announced. Could the Irish beat the pros? Sol They had tough time with Seahawks BY WHITNEY MARTIN. NEW YORK. It's in the "My dad can lick your dad" category, in that neither of the parties in question has made any claims and the only rajrti statements have come from the ardent of the two teams, but we think that the the Notre Dame football team could beat a good team such as the Chicago ire is downright silly.

Not that we great admiration for the Iriah, who have proved beyond question they are the standout college team of the country In this upside-down year. They would be a good team in any year. But whether they would, in a normal year, be as sensational as they are this year is open to question. Teams like Minnesota, and Michigan, and Ohio State normally can argue with anyone and we have an Idea that the Golden Gopheia under Bemle Bierman would a few first-place votes right wow were this a routine football season. Our Idea concerning Notre Dame's chances aigainst a topflight pro team is based somewhat on the showing of Frank team against the Iowa Pre-flight elevCT last Saturday.

The Irish woo, to IS. but they were played on better than even terms all the way thru. Now there were five former pro In the Fre-fHght ranks. Neither the pros, nor their non-pro teammates, had played together before tbit year, and some of them been on the squad all this season. Yet they provided a large mouthful for the Irish, who were fortunate to escape at least a tie.

If a team made up of five pro players and a dime-etore assortment of other players, with the whole bunch playing together for the first time this year, can play Notre Dame to a etandstlH, how would the Irish fare against a team made up entirely of pros, most of whom have gone thru previous seasons of playing as a unit? That seem to require an answer. Understand, taking nothing from Notre Dame, In its class it is supreme, and It has players, such aa Creighton Miller, who would be vrelcomed with open arms by any pro eleven. But trying to rate the Irish with an established pro team is too much like rating a fellow learning to Juggle two oranges with fellow who oan juggle six. Or better make that potatoes oranges being as hard to get aa they are. Anyway, training and experience are the difference.

Fbtperience In playing as a unit more or less, also is quite a factor, and it is noted that moat of the better teams this year had as their nucleus players who had played for the before. The addition of V-12 and V-5 transfer students added to the squad strength If the transferees were of premium football quality, but the basis of a good team already was there. In fact. In some Instances where a squad was assembled almost entirely from transfer players, and a goodly number of these players were outstanding at their own schools, the teams were disappointments. The boys knew how to play football, individually, but still a team game.

The doleful Leahy hat done a superb job, and his knack of keeping the boys up from week to week thru what probably was the toughest schedule In the country it worthy of note. Usually some Saturday along when the lads just do anything right. The Irish seemed to be able to do anything wrong. but once-tied Southwestern led by the great A1 vln Dark against undefeated Randolph, sparked by All America Glenn Dobbs. Dobbs has been completing passes like the RAF bombing Berlin which In our book means victory for Randolph Field.

Two freshmen numeral winners. Lee Schneider, center, and Lloyd Kester, guard, are on the squad. Kelso, a guard on last squad, also has returned. Five navy transfers on the squad had basketball experience at other schools. The navy and marines wanted something to harden the kids; something to advance them from mere youths to hardened to duty, hardened to knocks and bum raps.

They wanted something that would test courage. Initiative, resourcefulness; something that would knock them down In order to see If they could, or would, get up. They wanted to have proven officer material to work with. Football did this. The kids got up.

Not once, but many times. They are hardened, prepared for the bigger task that lies ahead Before be hangs up hla grid togs this fall.

Rather than slough over his Job in earlier games, rather than hasten unduly instead of adhering to orderly processes, he will take a beating. But when the chips are down he will submit a group of football players geared for anything in the way of high enterprise. Alumnus of Old. Johnny played, on Navy teams in 1916-17-18. He was coached in his first year by Lt.

His second year w'as a war year in which the Midshipmen played a schedule bereft of the usual major opponents and in 1918 Ursinus was the only collegiate rival, others being service teams. Before his return to the naval academy as an assistant coach he developed elevens of the U.

scouting force, and of the battleships Florida and Idaho. When Col. Swede Larson was as.signed to field duty with his beloved marines, Whelchel took over in 1942 as head man. Record of the Navy eleven iq his first year shows how he The Middies were well beaten by Princeton and Georgia Tech, and defeated 3-0 by William and Mary. But in the 9-0 defeat by Notre Dame the team showed improvement, winding up the season with victories over Columbia, Pennsylvania, and above all.

West Point. Bevy of Starting the current season with practically all regulars and important substitutes returned, Whelchel was in position to whip up his men to big game form early in the schedule. In consequence came an overwhelming defeat of Cornell and the defeat of Duke, a victory which has grown steadily in significance as the season haa progressed. to Be Troublesome. In truth, progress of the Midshipmen thru the season would give West Point cause for pessimism were it not for the wholesome trouncing administered by Notre Dame.

It exhibited the Navy team as greatly at loss in facing formation. While the Cadets may not be expected to express this tjrpe of offense as convincingly as the Irish have been doing, yet they have progressed and, as a matter of fact, it would have shown to much greater advantage against Notre Dame than it did were it not for the expert ball pilfering by the Irish. Therefore, Navy next Saturday may find Itself up against its most perplexing problem since the Notre Dame affair while forward pass defense weakness even Brown completed 18 out of 36 in turn, provide the Cadets with vexatious problems. Johnny Whelchel has, aside from Frank Leahy, no equal as pre-game mourner but loud tho he wall he will not inveigle his opponents into the mellow mood which he so successfully contrived on a dark November day in 1941 on the banks of the Severn.
