It was Hollywood day in the University of Nebraska football camp Saturday as the heftiest collection of muscle- sn-the-hoof seen in Comhuskerland in many moons strutted before the photographers. Eighty-seven gridders, including 30 lettermen of wartime and pre-war years, answered GOMER JONES TALKS IT Pictured with the new Husker line coach are four of his prospective linemen, Jack Evans of Grand Island, who might be used in the backfield; Bus Pfund of Norfolk; Harold Ansnes, Lincoln, and Carl Samuelson of Grand Island. (Staff Photo.) Puma Bags $1,000 Blue Border The Puma, a 10-year-old bay gelding and the oldest horse in the race, topped off a highly successful fairgrounds campaign by beating out American Oma and Dallas Flash in a photo finish to take the $1,000 Hotel Cornhusker handicap Saturday as the Nebraska State 16-day racing session came to a close.

Jockey Leon Hall moved The Ppma to the front on the first lap of the one mile and 70 yards event and fought off the challenges of the field in the stretch to win by a head. The Puma, who won three times in five starts at the Lin- track, paid $8.40, 4.80. 3.00 and was timed in 1:47 3-5. Second-place American Oma returned $9.00, 5.60 and Dallas Flash paid $3.40. Jack Sparks, 5-1 outsider, ran away with the seven furlong sixth race to set a new Fairground record for the distance.

Ridden by D. Barnett, Jack Sparks romped under the wire in 1:24 to clip two-fifths of a second off the old mark set by Jubilate Boy on Aug. 22. The J. Farhart and R.

E. Stewart owned horse gave its backers a handsome $14.20 for two while San Loyal, the favorite, and Hard Life finished second and third. A NEW HIGH of $117,175 went thru the mutuel room windows Saturday with $103,470.20 being returned to the bettors. C. L.

Hard Life was claimed for the $1,250 price, but the owner refused to turn over his horse and was suspended for the duration of the meeting. The case was turned over to the Nee braska State Racing Commission. Mad Time, who finished second in the fifth event, was claimed by Mrs. Vern Gentry for $600.

Ben mighty atom, continued to pulverize par Saturday in the second round of the Golden State Open golf tournament, posting a two-under 69 to go with his first round 66.

HIS 36-HOLE total of 135 put him two strokes ahead of his nearest competitors, stocky Herman Barron of White Plains, N. and Jack Gage, surprising San Bernardino, professional, who tied with 137. Barrow had the best card of 67 over the California Country Club course. Hogan, national PGA champion, slashed out a half-dozen birdies, four of them on the first nine when it appeared he would open an even wider margin on his rivals. The Hershey, 135 pounder lost some of his wiz- ardy on the bark nine, however, going from 33 to 36.

The former Texan increased his first round margin by a stroke. Herman Keiser of Akron, who was only one blow behind at the end of 18 holes, slipped back to par 71 to wind up in the fourth spot with a 138 total. GROUPED AT 139 were Tony Cincinnati, who shot a 70 to go with his earlier 69, and U. S. Open champion Lloyd Mangrum, Chicago, who posted 69 on top of a first round 70.

Clicking for duplicate again were Jimmy Demaret of Houston, and long-driving Chick Harbert, Detroit, both totaling 140 for 36 holes. SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y. John R. favored Blue Border Saturday won the 42nd running of the Hopeful Stakes, closing day feature of richest meeting.

FAVORITE IN the betting off his track performance in the Grand Union Hotel Stakes a week ago, Blue Border held on in a long stretch drive to nose out William $29,500 yearling, Cosmic Bomb, and win the same two-year old feature his daddy, Bimelech, captured in 1939. Carrying 112 pounds and piloted by Cuban Abellardo de Lara, Blue Border rattled off the BVi furlongs in 1:17, ling the track record the swift Boojum chalked up 27 years ago. Cosmic Bomb failed to get the second money when he was disqualified after a claim of foul. As a result, Mrs. Isabel Dodge Grand Admiral, who finished half a length back of the leaders, was second, with lightly regarded Johnny Dimick, from the barn of A.

J. Sackett, taking third money BLUE BORDER returned $5.10, $3.80 and $3.20 to his supporters in the crowd of 23,944 on hand for the card. It was announced the stewards disqualified Cosmic Bomb because his jockey, Shelby Clark of McLeansboro, 111., had the saddle of Blue Border thru the stretch. Clark was suspended indefinitely and the case was referred to the stewards of the jockey club. Nrw York 4, Washington 9.

(A3). Missouri football Coach Don Faurot said Saturday he feared that Bernard Pepper, an outstanding pre-war tackle at the university, will be unable to return to school this fall. Faurot did not say why Pepper might be out of uniform this season. Missouri, however, has good tackles in second-team All-America Jim Keweis, 295- pounder, and Ed Hodges, 210- pounds, of the 1942 champions.

Patty Berg, Minneapolis professional, defeated Betty Jean Rucker, Spokane amateur, 3 and 2 Saturday in the semi-finals of the National Open golf tournament. BETTY JAMESON, San Antonio, Texas pro, defeated Dot Kielty, Long Beach, I up in the other semi-final match. The two professionals will be playing for a $5,600 first prize in the 36-hole finals. Patty was 2 up over Betty Jean at the 18-hole intermission. Miss Berg won four holes to one for Miss Rucker on the first nine of the afternoon round.

She was deadly with her putter thru most of the round, while Miss Rucker played into the woods on occasion. SOUTH BEND, Ind. (IP), Coach Frank Leahy of Notre Dame, pessimistic as usual, Saturday said he failed to understand why the Irish were being so highly touted for national football championship honors this season. in my coaching experience have there been so many positions open on the team as is the case this he said. This is because we do not know what to expect from the returned servicemen.

The Notre Dame squad will be composed largely of returning servicemen. Certainly there are a great many lettermen returning here, as elsewhere, but each of these boys coming back from the war represents a definite individual question WEST POINT. (IP). The great Army football team of the past two of the truly fine gridiron machines of all has been hard hit by losses from graduation and other causes, and the replacements are not too promising. Chances are that the Cadets will have only the best backfield in the country this fall, instead of the two best backfields and the two best lines.

Their forward wall will be only good, instead of wonderful, and their shortage of reserves might catch them where it hurts before the season is over. That is how Coach Earl Blaik sizes it up after two days of practice, but he wishes it clearly understood he is not the The others still are going to have to come and get the soldiers. They will take considerable beating. BETTY JAMESON had squared her match with Dot Kielty, California state amateur titlist, at the end of 27 holes. Two down at the start of the afternoon round, Miss Jameson won the 20th hole with a seven- foot putt for a birdie three.

Trap trouble cost her the next two holes, but she won the 23rd with a five-foot putt for birdie three. She got par four on the 24th to win the hole when Miss Kielty missed a two-foot putt. Miss Jameson squared the match on the 25th when Miss Kielty dubbed an approach. They halved the next two holes. Rig Nine Bosses Gather in Chicago For Conference THE CADETS expect no real help from their plebe squad.

No matter how some of the other teams are supposed to be, it is to be seriously doubted that any starting college backfield in the land will quite measure up to the quartet of Blanchard, Glenn Davis, Tom McWilliams and Arnold Tucker. What they can do from the T-formation is a thing close to football murder. CHICAGO. (ZP). Athletic officials of the Western Conference will assemble here Sunday to compare their anti-recruiting policy with prir-riples of amateurism recently enunciated by representatives of more than 200 college leagues.

The Western Conference feels confident it has operated within the scope of pure amateurism, but Sunday will study details of project scholarship plans to determine their conformity. The athletic directors and faculty representatives also will reconsider the conference stand on basketball double-headers and legislation banning athletes from appearing on sponsored radio broadcasts, and determine the eligibility status of University of Illinois students at "extension Baseball's Big Six ah pct. ...126 499 99 IHA .371 Hnpp, ...............103 364 62 US .362 Walker, 464 61 166 .342 Vernon. 478 73 162 .339 Pesky, Red 640 HO 188 .939 W'UUams, Red 130 464 130 162 .335 Cubs Purchase Pair From Texas Loop Club CHICAGO.
