Mr. Jacobs Sees Gold in the Harmon-Reagan Range

By JOE WILLIAMS y NEW : YORK, Oct. 25—There’s more artistry thsn envy in the soul of Mr. Mike Jacobs, the fight promoter, who appears to have very

S'little to prcmote thése days, by the

way. This is a situation which normally would plunge any cauliflower connoisseur into deep melancholy’ but Mr. Jacobs is slightly

‘different,

All the gentleman knows about a mouse trap is that it is something people bait with. cheese and to his mind a cut-back is a secretive system practiced by mateh-makers in dealing with their favorite managers. But he has heard of Tommy Harmon and Francis Reagan, “So they come together this week?” mused Mr. Jacobs. “What a natural. It ought to pack any joint in the country. It's another Dempsey-Tunney thing.” A fivery hoxoffice attraction starts and finishes with the DempseyTunney things-as far as Mr. Jacobs is concerned. Ie was in on the promotion of both the million-dollar spectacles. >

Dreams and Dreams

“What'd I do if I had Harmon and Reagan?” sighed Mr. Jacobs “I'd hook ‘em all over the country. I'd give ’em a good supporting cast. too. If I booked ‘em in the South, say, I'd throw, in something like Tennessee and Mississippi

know, put on a real production.” Someone fold Mr, Jacobs: . the game (it's, Penn . against Michigan at Ann Arbor, as you know) figured to draw close to- 70,000 pecple. , .. “And how much is that in dough?” asked Mr. Jacobs, slipping characteristically into finahces. He ‘was told the figures ought to ke in the neighnorhood of $200,000. “Well that ain’t hay these: days, ?. he agreed. He paused to play the unfinished symphony ‘if D’ minor on his noisy store teeth. .’..5.“And how

known as the ‘Black Secret.” He enjoyed a long winning streak. vZ

much does this. Harmon “and this Reagan get out of it?” This would have been frightfully shocking on the part of any one else but it was remembered that Mr, Jacobs’ familiarity withscollege football - was .on the thin side. . . . “They don’t get a dime!” He whistled, repeating the “Well, they must be saps.”

Tough on. Benny

Benny Friedman tells of the time his old man saw him play for Michigan against Ohio State. It was his first view of his son in a college game, The cavernous stands ‘were packed, just as they figure to be Saturday. Eenny had ‘a busy the laborious day. The ends and

time after time young Mr. Friedman found himself slammed uncere= meniously to the ground, After the game’ the elder Friedman - asked: . “Who gets all the money? He was told it went to the colleges. . . . “And what do you get? . . . Benny explained all he got was the fun of playing, “Fun!” Exploded the old man. “You call that fun; phooey!” We can’t remember when » meeting of foothall individuals 'has so stirred the college world. If Reagan isn’t the best back in the East. He'll do until a better one comes along. The claims for Harmon are more extravagant. He is being called the back of the year. For the time

- |being, at least, he has taken the play

away from Ohio State's Don Scott.

{It isn’t often that it is possible to

turn the critical spotlight on two such conspicuously hrilliant rivals in the same game. When the final returns are in Saturday it probably won't be difficult to state which is the superior. Both young men are cut more or less from the same pattern. They are ig fellows and they run

Bill Neff, who was outstanding against. Michigan State, has taken over the No. 1 spot at left tackle, while Fred Smerke is due to get the starting assignment at quarterback instead of Kersey. Other quarterbacks on call are Jim Cary and Vincent Snyder, also sophs.

It's no secret that the Badgers, who went to a 7-7 no-decision last year with the Boilermakers, will be in a surly mood as they endeavor to score their first victory in three conference starts.

Hahnenstein to Carry Mall

With ‘Bill De Correvont and Ike Kepford out of action because of

fullback, likely to be hampersd in ‘his play due to a:wrenched back, Indiana becomes a formidable problem for the Wildcats. The Wildcat drill periods this week have seen Lynn Waldorf and his coaching aides busily engaged in révamping work, and at the same time trying to keep the seriousness of the Indiana task paramount in the squad’s mind. : Concerning the backfield realignment, brought on by DeCorrevont’s ankle sprain, a shovider separation to Kepford and Clawson’s injury, it is likely that Red Hahnenstein, a senior, will fill in for DeCorrevont; Paul Soper take over fullback, Tuffy Chambers continue at right half, and Capt. Dick Richards handle the quarterbacking. This would be the No. 1 setup, and the quartet likely to see a majority of the action. The loss of DeCorrevont, serious as it is, is tempered somewhat by the presence of Hahnenstein, The Aurora, Ill, veteran is no reserve in
