PAGE FOURTEEN THE MONROE (I-A.) NEWS-STAR Ouachita Homecoming With Istrouma High Here Tonight Kickoff At 8 P. M. With Crowning Of Queen At 7:40 P. M. Ouachita Parish High School Lions ring down the curtain on their football campaign here tonight in a homecoming scramble with heavies 'armed Istrouma High School of Baton Rouge Kickoff time is 8 o'clock at Brown Fleld.

Istrouma Indians, favored to win the southwest district championship Class A crown, are promising the Lions, cellar club of the north dvision. one of their hardest fights of the year, while the Lions, with some strength regained by the return to near-form of (rippled backs, hopes to give the Tribesmen more than they have bargained for. from homecoming features, the meeting is just another ball game for the Lions, whose own title hopes are over But it could still be a big one for Ouachita if the can keep Halfback Bob Carter in action and shake him loose for some touchdown runs. Carter, leading double-A scorer of the state, been able to add a point in the last three weeks. Injured early in the Byrd game after an open date, Ouachita has sorely the loss of the elusive ball handler.

Tonight Carter, along with Halfback Benny Franklin and Quarterback Billy Short who have also been ailing are supposed to be ready for duty again. They have been working steadily this week but it remains to be seen if they're able to come through with their old style of play. The ability of Carter to retain his scoring lead In the state race, however, could possibly clinch for him a berth on the annual Associated Press all-state team. So even if Ouachita fails to upset the Tribe, ii is the hope of Lion followers that Carter will be able to boost his scoring edge Its a homecoming show for Ouachita that was once postponed two weeks ago because of inclement weather. But if all goes well today, Ouachita students will launch their homecoming festivities with a downtown parade in the afternoon as they make their public showing of the coming queen, Miss Jane and her court.

Betty Jean Holstead with Bills Ray an is D.var with Bob Carter, and Dorothy Barr with Jimmy Perkins. Crow n-beaier will be Little Susan John, and little Richard Cryar will be foothall-bearer.

With scarcely a stutter or an opposing vote, the balloters of the Associated Press weekly poll saw almost eye-to-eve on every contest. The closest thing to a split in was the 14-8 count on the Nichoils-St. Aloysius game.

The fourteen favored Nicholls. The other voting went: Lake Charles over Bolton 17-4, Terrebonne over Catholic High 21-1, Bo-; galusa over Picayune. 21-1. Dtrouma over Ouachita 21-1, and Sulphur over Lafayette 22-0. Nineteen of the 22 voting, liked Holy Cross over Jesuit in that powerhouse feature in New Orleans.

17 couple of baseball big guns arrived here Thursday to discuss the possibility of Ottawa obtaining an International Baseball League franchise. Frank Shaughnessy, president of the Triple A International league, accompanied by Carl Hubbell, director of the New York Giants- farm club system, was to confer with T. P. (Tommy' Gorman. Ottawa sports promoter, about the possibility of switching the Jersey City franchise heie.

Ottawa at present is represented by Ottaw'a Nationals of the Class Border League. Ruston, on 17 'Special' Louisiana Tech's defensive platoon will have to improve considerably if the Bulldog gridders are to emerge victorious over the Mississippi Southern eleven when the two teams tangle in Hattiesburg, Miss Saturday night for the Gulf States Conference championship. Before the season got underway', the Tech coaching staff was of the opinion the defensive unit would be stronger than last year, but the platoon has turned in spotty performances in several games this year. However, the Bulldogs have turned in five victories, against two losses and one tie for the season. Southern will carry a big weight advantage into the contest Saturday night.

The Mississippi line averages 210 pounds while the Techsters will depend on their 18- pound average defensive alignment. Southern has allowed three S. C. opponents only seven points this year, but went down to a 7-0 defeat at the hands of Southeastern Louisiana college. The G.

S. C. race this year has developed into a topsy-turvy affair, with any club in the circuit capable of pulling off a stunning upset. Southern and Tech boast the best records, the Bulldogs with a 3-1 mark and the Mississippians with a 2-1 record. S.

L. I. polished off the Techmen 41-13 but dropped out of the running as Louisiana college edged out a 22-20 win. Southern has won only three of eight tilts, but still ranks as favorite over the lighter Tech team because of its topnotch defense and potential offense. Bubber Phillips has failed to run wild this year from his halfback slot of the Mississippi club, but he is dangerous anytime he gets his hand on the ball.

Quarterbacks Tom LeGros and Bobby Holmes, both a epa hie performers, will share the duties under center for the Southern formation outfit. The Southerners showed a strong defense against University of Alabama running plays last week, but a 53-0 shellacking as the Crimson Tide opened up with a strong aerial barrage in the second half. Ten members of the Bulldog gridiron machine will be playing in a championship contest for the fourth year in a row. -----------o----------- Sportspourrl Bobby Riggs has cancelled his tennis Boston appearance in order to play at Lynn, and Tufts College in Medford.

Jr. Baton Rouge. 17 A Texan who never played real football until he went to college currently is tabbed the best all- around player in the Southeastern Conference. He is Kenny Konz of Weimar. a smiling blond bombshell who runs, IOO yards in 9.9 seconds.

At 22 years of age, he packs 185 pounds on a 5 foot IU inch frame. Konz was something of a nine- day wonder when he reported to Louisiana State University in 1947. He never had played football before, not the 11-man kind. At Weimar High School, there just enough boys to go around. so they compromised on six-member teams.
