ITS AUGUST AND ONCE again the footballw are flying around all < vc; th. country ami they will be gr; bbmg their share of the headlines ight in the middle of a coup!? of good pennai t races In baseba 1. The big "starter" f>r football i. the annual Co.lege All Star vr. the Professional Champion's game in Chicago’. Soldier Field m the shores oi Lake Mieh gan F lay night This will pit the Bdtimcie Colts fw the pro team against a team of leading graduates of last yeai s college lank?. FOR SOME REASON OF. othei. maybe it's the weather, maybe it's the baseball or possibly the nearly approaching Olympics, but the All Star game hasn't had the usual publicity unless one leads the Chicag • Tribune, the sponsors of this annual event played for charity. This will again be quite an affair with some real good college boys and seme beefy ones getting their initiation into the type cf play the professionals offer. The savvy, know-how and size and speed of these play-for-pay boys will make it plenty rough on the ones who will be seeking a career in either the established National Professional Football League, or the newly organized American Football League due ’o open foi the first time this fall. IN THE PAST EIGHT OR ten years, professional football has really rocketed in the hearts

The outcome oi the newly formed league seem; t i ha v e a more successful chance of operating than did the league *hat Wan formed and broke after four years 'allowing the end of World War H. With collegr football at the level it is presently and the thorough scouting di no by the pro teams in th ■ college ranks in all sizes < f schools, there is plenty of talent to go around. PROBABLY THE MAIN thing that will be needed for success is balance. If one or two teams get tremendously powerful and no other team can touch them, i* will hurt. These new teams will have to draw well from the start to make ago of it. Attendance should be good early because of the novelty of the sport but in another year or two. । hes< team® will still have to ;>acl them in pretty well as th< busi ness of starting from sera! h is a costly cne. FROM HERE ON OUT AS long as there axe two 1.-ague^ the bidding for players at the close of the college seasons will be something terrific.
