Nova Told

Not to Slug With Tony

And That Makes Young Lou | More of a Favorite in Go Tonight.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 15 (U.P). —Young Lou Nova won't try to slug it out with Tony Galento tonight at Municipal Stadium. That's the “Philadelphia story” that jumped Nova from 2-1 to 3-1 favoritism in the overnight callover when the news trickled out of Nova's camp last night. When Lou and Tony tangle tonight in the same stadium where Dempsey and Tunney first met, Lou is crawling through the ropes with these specific instructions: “Box him for at least three rounds or we'll break a bottle over your head.” That's the big story—the whole story—of tonight's fight. Nova, young, handsome “Alameda Adonis” from California, went punch crazy after his technical knockout victory over Maxie Baer in June. He &ssured everyone he would do the same with Galento as he did with

By TOM OCHILTREE HEY are without a home field to play on and their schedule is bunched up in spots, but the 48 members of Cathedral High School’s football squad make up in ambition what they lack in weight, Even in the sky-rocketing temperatures this week, they have been running through their practice drills at Riverside Park willingly and with a lot of the old Marines-have-landed spirit. This is Joseph Harmon's second season as Cathedral coach, and while he doesn't hold a particularly rosy view of the future of his team, he does admire the spirit of the boys. Harmon was a Cathedral star himself before his graduation in 1921, and he was a Notre Dame center in the great days of the Four Horsemen.

action, Remaining games on the Cathedral schedule:

Sept. 22-At Noblesville. Sept. 30—At Southport, Oct. 6—At Washington, Oct. 11-<At Muncie. Oct. 13—At Elwood. Oct. 20—At Tech, Oct. 25—At Shortridge. Nov. 3—At Manual. Nov. 18—At Ft. Wayne North Side. This list of future business indicates Cathedral will play a much harder schedule than most high schools, and a mixup concerning the Muncie game made it that much tougher, as the cook said when he dropped the steak on the floor, Originally, Cathdral understood that it was to have played Muncie last Wednesday, but in Muncie the school officials believed that the game had been scheduled tor Oct. 13. That conflicted with another date on the Irish calendar, sO the tilt finally was fixed for Oct. 11. » » \d O now, Cathedral will have to play Elwood just two days after the Muncie game—a situation that will tax the Irish reserve strength to the utmost.

Baer—beat him at his own slugging game,

Went Out on Limb for Tony Because of that assurance more boxing experts than you would believe went right out on the limb and oredicted Galento would win by a knockout. Those experts knew that the beauteous but bull-headed Nova was lucky to weather his June scrap with Baer. And they knew that the Baer of last June lacked the dynamite in his fists that Sig. Galento possessses. Too much importance cannot be placed upon this salient factor ot whether Nova will box or slug In the first three rounds. Nova wants to slug it out. Although he actually is only a so-so puncher, he believes he can out-punch any heavyweight in the ring today. And when Nova

cause of his relaxed stance, Lou 1s an easy target, and usually off-bal-ance when hit.

25,000 Fans Expected Nova is only a fair boxer. But he possesses sufficient ring talent to evade being floored by Galento in the first three rounds if he remembers the evasiveness that Bob McAllister of the Los Angeles Olmypic Club taught him. Anyway, there'll be some 25,000 or | more fans out in the huge concrete | horseshoe where Dempsey and Tun- | ney drew 125,735 spectators for their | first meeting in 1926. Aside from Nova's willingness to box tonight during the early rounds when Fat Tony is dangerous—Nova | is favored because he is young—24 | years against Galento's 29; because he is a clean liver, Galento will have about 25 pounds weight advantage, which is offset by his age of 29 years. He expected to scale 231 against Lou's 2086.

It was announced that Thom’s alleged ‘‘choke” hold will be barred when he faces Wahlberg. Although Billy insists that his pet grip is not a “strangle” or a ‘‘choke,” he has agreed to leave it on the shelf. The two staged a fast and exciting tussle last Tuesday, each taking a fall before the gong ended festive
