Top Teams Are Favorites To Win Saturday NIEW YORK UP—All of the nation's top five teams were listed as heavy favorites today to wln\ their football games on Saturday, with only fifth-ranked .Illinois being picked :by as little as one touchdown. The unbeaten Iltini, colliding with iPurdue machine that surprised last week by clacking Michigan State’s string of 28 victories were listed as 7-point choices. However, first - ranked\Notre Dame was favored by a whopping 19 points over a Navy team upset last week 'by Pennsylvania, and second-ranked Maryland was th most lopsided choice of the day, 27 points over South Carolina, in the odds posted by a Minneapolis odiLdiouse. Third-rated Bayior was picked by 13 points over Texas Christina, and fourth-ranked Southern California by 13 over Oregon. In the nationally-televised ‘\gane of the day,” a big intei-seiftion:-l test, Minnesota was quoted a Ipoint pick over Pittsburgh. The odds-makers saw two games as even money—Kansas-Nebraska and Mississippi-Louisiana State and two others almost as even, with Wake Forest a 1-point choke over Clemson and Indiana picked by 1 point over Missouri. Otherwise, here's how the xoddsmakerssaw the 'big games: East: West Virginia 6 over Pehn State. Syracuse 6 over Holy Cro«s, Fordham 6 over Miami Fla., Princeton 7 over Drown, Cornell 7 over Columbia, Colgate 7 over Rutgers. Yale 13 over Dartmouth, Villanova 14 over Xavier.

Teams who have not yet filed a.e urged to attend to this matter immediately. ’ piano keys are not too badly yellowed, it might help to clean them-of surface di|rt with soap or some mild cleanser, then follow this by careful use of a small amount of some bleach material.

Rocky Castellani Seeks Title Bout > 'CLEVELAND, UP — Christmas still is nearly two months away, but manager Al Nieman said today he already knows what he wants to get his middleweight protege, Rocky Castellani, for a present. 4 “A shot at the title—that's what we want,” Nieman said. "When Bobo Olson puts it on the block, we 'want to be the first ones there. Rocky deserves it.” Castellani, ranked third among tlie country's 160-pounders, earned Nieman's ambitions Wednesday night with an impressive, unanimous decision over Mickey Laurent of France. In the lop-sided, nationally televised and broadcast bout, every scorecard gave Castellani, a Clevelander, at least 8 of the 10 rounds. ‘ißocky looks better every fight,” Nieman said afterwards. “He’s changed his etyle now. He’s more* aggressive.” There was no room for argument that Castellani looked good against the bobbing, weaving and, at times, awkward; Laurent. Two of tWe officials, in fact, did not vote the Frenchman, a single round. ; Protecting his head with both gloves held high in a style used by t many French ring warriors, Laurent kept plodding forward throughout the 10 heats but always waited for Castellani to lead. Rocky invariably connected with a leading left or brought up a looping uppercut that stopped the Frenchman's slow advance. Knightstown Man Drowning Victim I SEYMOUR. Ind., UP — Paul E. Shipley, 55, Knightstown, drowned in White River east of Medora Wednesday while fishing. Police said he apparently suffered a heart attack and Ml into the water.
