The professionals scored in eiery period of play to total seven touchdowns and converted after each tally for their lopsided victorv. Two more touchdowns were called back due to rule infractions. The contest was staged as a benefit, with proceeds going to the Duquesne police pension fund. A capacity crowd of 4,000 fans filled the stands to watch Coach Walter Kiesling'a high-powered machine roar over the game but outclassed semipros, who had a number of ex-college stars In their lineup. The losers made only two first downs, one on a forward pass in the first period and the other on a penalty in the last stanza.

Before the kickoff the Liberal Club of Duquesne presented Ed Karp, giant left tackle of the Steelers who resides in Duquesne, with a traveling bag.

Accordingly, an All Star triumph would put a dent in the professional's prestige. The game, should the turf he dry and fast, may produce one of the most spectacular battles of the series.

Green Bay has one of the all-time great passing combinations, with Arnie Herber tossing to Don Hutson and Cecil Isbell. With the collegians also having such accurate flinters as Nile Kinnick, Ken Heinrman and Kenny Washington, the fans may be treated to a display of brilliant aerial warfare. Coach Curlcy Lambeau will not announce a starting lineup until the kickoff. scheduled for 8:20 p. m.

(Ch cago Daylight Time), but his opening backfield likely will consist of Larry Craig at blocking hick, Arnie Herber and Cecil Isbell at the halfbacks and Clark Hinkle at fullback. The All-Star starting backfield will be Amby Schindler, quarter-hack, Kinnick and Lou Brook at the halves and Joe Thesing at full-hack.
