jpERIIAPS the new year is destined to bring a successful invasion of foreign boxers, a situation that is sure to help the game. First, Jock McAvoy came over from England a few weeks ago, uncorked a punch of tremendous power and won the acclaim of many boxing writers in the East. Jock returned overseas to be with his family when homesickness affected him at Christmas, but he plans to return shortly and campaign for two titles, the middleweight and light-heavy. And he's tagged as a sure shot to capture one of the belts. Another newcomer of promise is Aldo Spoldi. young Italian who has been cleaning up on a brief visit. Spoldi is a lightv/eight with a murderous blow, and he's only 23. He stands 5 feet 6 inches, good height for a lightweight, and is a former amateur champion, having won the fly, bantam, feather and lightweight crowns during a career In the Italian "simon-pure” ranks. Since turning pro Aldo has engaged in 30 bouts and only two defeats are on his record. In four battles in America Spoldi has taken down one verdict on points and has knocked out three opponents. Asa matter of fact, veteran ring experts around New York think the Italian has more wallop than the world champion, Tony O.nzoneri.

Eastern All-Stars Gain First Victory in 4 Years Loebs Shines in Line as Invading College Gridders Swamp Westerners, 19 to 3. By United Press SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 2.—Eastern football forces today toasted a 19-to-3 victory ovei an all-star Western eleven, the first for the invaders in four years. Proceeds of the annual Shrine East-West charity game went to crippled children of the Shriner-.’ Hospital in San Francisco and glory, divided nearly equally despite the score, to the players. Andy Kerf, co-coach of the Eastern squad, received the personal gratification of seeing two of his own Colgate players take a major role in
the East’s victory. Western players flouted the short end of 10 to 7 pre-game betting odds and held the East scoieless until late in the gdme. Meantime, they called upon Johnny Sylvester, rangy end from Rice Institute, and moved into a 3-to-0 lead with a 15yard field goal. A Western miscue opened the flood gates and the visiting team swept to victory. Bill (Kayo) Lam, playing safety for the West, fumbled on the 43-yard line. Ed Smith of N. Y. U. skirted the end for 13 yards and a pass to Paul Pauk, Princeton half back, added 12 more. Smith whipped a short pass to Pauk on the next play and Pauk crossed the line untouched. The West’s effort to retrieve their advantage developed disaster when Don Irwin, Colgate full back, intercepted a pass on the 26-yard line. He smashed the ball across after Ed Smith contributed the first eleven yards on an off tackle smash. Irwin cracked center for twelve then covered the remaining three yards over tackle for the second touchdown. Gomer Jones, Ohio State, crushed the West's ensuing effort to score with passes. He intercepted a pass on the West's 18-yard line and raced over the goal line. In the Eastern ranks, spectators were impressed by the play of Riley Smith. Alabama quarter back; Dick Crayne's kicking, powerful contribution to the secondary defense by Dick Heekin, Ohio State, and the sterling line play of Frank Loebs, Purdue end, and Big Dick Smith. Minnesota tackle. SAMUEL RYDER DIES By United Press LONDON, Jan. 2 —Samuel Ryder, 77, sportsman and donor of the Ryder %o!f cup, died suddenly at his hotel today.

Stanford Men First to Top S. M. U. Eleven Coast Gridmen Triumph, 7*o, Before 86,000 Fans in Rose Bowl. By United Press PASADENA, Cal., Jan. 2.—The “laughing boys” of Stanford University, who vowed they would not drop three straight football games in the Rose Bowl, held a high place today among the nation’s best football teams after a 7-to-0 victory over Southern Methodist. Approximately 86.000 holiday spectators watched the greatest team in Stanford history generate a power win over the Texas team. Power in the line and a booming alert back field were the combination the Cardinals needed to win a victory which erased fiom the minds of alumni the sad memories of defeats by Alabama and Columbia in the same arena. Stanford pushed over its touchdown in the first quarter; then tenaciously held the margin. Once the Methodists drove to the Stanford five-yard line, but a fumble spoiled their big opportunity to tie. Paulman Kicks 70 Yards The winning score came after Bill Paulman, sophomore quarter back, booted a quick kick 70 yards down the field. Big Jim Moscrip, AllAmerican end, grounded the ball on the S. M. U. 10-yard line. Bob Finley’s return punt was carried back 17 yards by Jimmy Coffis, sophomore half back, and Stanford was in Mustang territory. On the next play, Robert (Bones) Hamilton threw a 20-yard pass to Coffis, who was downed on the S. M. U. 19-yard line. Bobby Grayson, Stanford full back, contributed a nine-yard circle of right end and then poked center to the one-yard mark. Paulman skidded over the goal on the next play and Monk Moscrip made the place kick conversion. Southern Methodists’ big disappointment came in the second quarter after Johnny Sprague intercepted a pass by Grayson. Finley passed to Bobby Wilson to enter Stanford territory. Another play in which Wilson lateraled to Harry Shuford. who lateraled to Finley, wound up on the Stanford five-yard line. v Muller Stops Threat As rabid Texans waved fivegallon hats and cried for a touchdown, S M. U. tried a reverse. Shuford was supposed to take the ball, but was taken out by Wes Muller, star Stanford center. The football wound up under Muller’s bulky body on the Stanford six. The Cardinals punted out of danger. The S. M. U. players, victorious in 12 straight games during the 1935 season and pronounced the best football aggregation in the nation under the Dickinson rating system, were disappointed but praised their rivals. Bobby Wilson, who was held to an average of 1.83 yards per try, said the Stanford ends, Moscrip and Keith lopping, “simply were too tough.” Paulman’s punting was another feature. While his average for the day was only 38 yards per kick, he several times sent spirals of 50 to 70 yards to set back the Methodists. Coaches in the press blfc said the line play of both teams .was as fine as they had seen for some time.

102 Pin Teams to Compete in Fountain Square Event A. B. C. Lineups to Be Used by Most Aggregations in Week-End Contest for S3OO Top Prize.
BY BERNARD HARMON THAT the coming A. B. C. tournament at the state fairground coliseum is attracting more interest daily is evidenced by the entries received for the Fountain Square Recreation's fifth annual five-man tournament, scheduled for Saturday and Sunday. With the opening date of the national event drawing near, practically every one of the 102 teams that are scheduled to face the maples will present lineups that are to seek a share of the huge A. B. C. prize fund, and with a S3OO firstplace prize at stake in the Fountain event, many of the aggregations will be gunning for entry fee in the fairground attraction. Oscar Behrens, manager of the South Side drives, is to be commended on his efforts + o make the week-end affair the greatest alley event of the local pin season. His tireless efforts have been rewarded with an entry that far surpasses any previous team event during the season. He reported yesterday that after his schedule was filled he was forced to turn down several entries. Had the tourney covered a period of two week-ends, a probable entry of 150 teams would have participated. Behrens has requested that every individual who is entered in the event check his average carefully before his appearance on the alleys. Averages as of Friday, Dec. 20, are being used. Because of the recent mixups in other tourneys, when rechecks of handicaps created new prize winners, he has made this request. u a t> SCANNING over the list of last season’s 700 shooters, we find the names of several pastimers missing from this season’s honor roll. With the season at the half-way mark, such outstanding kegelers as Fred Schleimer, Herman Bohne, Walt Heckman. Tom Selmier, Charley Cray, Larry Fox, Harry Wheeler, Ken Koelling. Paul Striebeck, Dad Hanna, Joe Fulton, Chuck Markey, Henry Bunch, Jess Pritchett Jr., Jack Underwood, Carl Kiefer.

season’s list is bright, for at present, the number of 700s turned in is far in advance of that of last season. Several new names adorn the list of this season’s heavy hitters, Leo Ahearn, Clarence Schott, Willis Brunot, Louis Koehler, Bert Bruder, Carl Hardin, Milt Wimberly and Art Rowley being the new “members.” tt it After an absence of several seasons, the Bie Four League once more Is humming with activity. The loop, which had been in operation for almost 28 years, disbanded in 1981, after many of its members had been transferred to other cities. But when the 50 teams that represented Indianapolis at the 1935 A. B. C. in Syracuse were being recruited, interest in the game broke out anew among the pin spiilers that survived the 1931 shakeup. Four teams were organized and were among the first local entrants in the 1935 affair. During the summer months, the league was re-organized with Ralph P. Pierce as president and Francis Raftery, secretary. With the opening of the current season, eight teams had been enrolled and have been battling weekly at the Central Alievs. Although the General Superintendents have been perched at the top of the team standings most of the season, the remaining aggregations have been steadily improying and the “Supes" lead is being whittled weekly. ..The race for leadership among the individuals has been a nip and tuck affair, with a sextet of snipers in the midst of the battle. At the present time Watler .Flash) English holds the top spot, but his supremacy is being challenged by Harry Hein, Raftery. Joe White, Bob Hughes and Ed Steinecker. The loop is now in the midst of a drive to obtain funds for 33 teams in the coming A. B.

Lions Feast Pro Grid Champs Run Wild in Denver.
Times Special TPVENVER, Jan. 2.—The hard-hit-ting Detroit Lions, champions of the National Professional Football League, were 33 points better than a team of “All-Stars” picked from their circuit opponents here yesterday. A crowd of 11,000 watched the Lions up in the second quarter and reel off first downs in an impressive fashion. Ace Gutowsky and Dutch Clark were spearheads of the attack which piled up a 33-to-0 score. The “All-Stars” could not sustain an offensive drive, and seemed poorly organized on defense. Ernie Caddel, Clark, Gutowsky, Bill Shepherd and Glen Presnell crossed the final line for the victors. Agree Cage Game Ended in Deadlock Northwestern Officials Find Scorers at Fault.

The Wildcats have a maximum schedule of 20 games under Western Conference rules. The contest finished in wild confusion when two undergraduate scorers, representing both schools, overlooked a free throw made by Meyer, Notre Dame forward, and ruled that Northwestern had won 20 to 19. Newspaper men covering the tilt were unanimously of the opinion that the game was tied and an overtime should be played. By the time the error was called to the attention of the players, they were dressed in street clothes and most of the customers had gone home. The announcement that the game was a tie came from Kenneth (Tug) Wilson, Northwestern athletic director.

Record Crowd Is Expected at Fieldhouse Tonight to See Bulldogs and Wolverines Butler Geared to Extend Hardwood Winning Streak at Expense of Big Ten Tossers; Contest Marks First Cage Meeting Between Schools. One of the largest crowds In the history of Butler basketball is expected to turn out for the Butler-Michigan game tonight. It will be the first time that the two schools have met on the hardwood. Two Indianapolis products. John and Earl Townsend, brothers, are regulars with the visitors. Play is to begin at 8:15.
Coach Tony Hinkle’s cage fives are well known all over the Middle West and many a powerful team has fallen before the fighting Bulldogs. Despite the early setback handed them by Indiana Central and Pittsburgh, they have found their place in the win column once more with victories over Purdue, Franklin and Cincinnati—and are determined to add the Wolverines to the list of victims. Both defensive and offensive drills were a feature of Butler's final practice before the game tonight. Scotty Armstrong, Bulldog pivot man, is reported recovering from a cold that slowed him down in the earlier part of the week. Roscoe Batts, star forward, has improved his bucket-making ability by reporting early to practice sessions and he has recovered from a slight knee injury. Willard Fawcett, Norval Corbett and Big Bill Merrill form the main group of Hinkle's sophomore “shock troops” and all probably will be called on for action this evening. Merrill Is a hometown boy and played three years on the Shortridge varsity. He makes a good pivot man and may get the call instead of Armstrong, :f the regular center feels too weak to start. Armstrong took a light workout yesterday.
Baugh Is Goat, Then Hero of T. C. U. Bowl Victory Texas Quarter Back Gives L. S. U. Two Points, but Atones With Clever Scoring Maneuver. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW ORLEANS. Jan. 2.—Thumb back through the pages of football history and you'll never find a football game like Texas Christian's 3-to-2 victory over Louisiana State in the second annual Sugar Bowl game. Almost everything that can happen in a football game except a touchdown took place on the rain-soaked field of Tulane's stadium as these two reckless, gambling Southern teams thrilled 38.000 spectators with their dramatic play. There was never a dull moment during the drab, rainy day.
Sammy Baugh, a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde of the gridiron, was the leading actor in the New Year’s Day post-season battle which enthralled the rain-drenched crowd with a football circus that almost defies description. All the scoring took place in two minutes of the second period, but the thrills were sprinkled throughout 60 minutes of the game. In that span of time, Baugh, T. C. U. s 180-pound quarter back who was named on the United Press AllAmerica team, was transformed from a goat into a hero. Tries End Zone Pass For the second time during the game, Baugh, violating one of the cardinal rules of quarter back play, attempted to pass from behind the goal line. He was driven almost back into the temporary bleacher seats in the end zone by two Louisiana State linemen. He finally got rid of the ball just as he stepped out of the end zone, and it fell incomplete about eight yards away. It didn’t even reach the goal line, and gave Louisiana State two points on a safety. It was a stupid mistake which might have broken the heart of a whole team. But not Baugh. Two minutes later he had directed his team into a position to kick a field goal. Bill Crass, Louisiana State full back, fumbled on his own 40-yard line, and Will Walls, T. C. U.’s 190-pound end from Little Rock, Ark., recovered the ball for the Horned Frogs. Pulls Unexpected Aerial Baugh crossed up the Louisiana State defense with an unexpected aerial from Jimmy Lawrence, Horned Frog half back, to Walls for a 23-yard gain, placing the ball on L. S. U.’s 17-yard line. Louisiana State stopped three T. C. U. plays without gain, and then Baugh dropped back to his knee and held the ball while Taldon (Tilly) Manton, 190-pound full back, kicked a perfect field goal. Baugh, who has won fame as the nation’s greatest passer, was the shining light of the spectacular game. He made the longest run of the day, a 44-vard dash off tackle to L. S. U’s four-yard line late in the fourth period. He amazed the crowd with his uncanny kicking of a heavy, water-logged ball, punting 14 times for an average of 48 yards. Darrell Lester, Texas Christian’s giant center, suffered a severely injured shoulder in his team’s “first goal line stand, and played less than i half the game.

The local's back field, composed of short men, couldn’t reach up high enough to intercept the Trojans aerial thrusts, and the Southern California linemen packed too much weight for their opponents.
