ington occasions no surprise to
those who know the modern
wrestler.
Your grappler of today is a
trouper with the actors instinct
to help those Of his gipsylike tribe
who have hit snag on the rugged
road of life.
And in directing attention to his be-
ing a thespian is not meant in any
derogartory sense. If he was not an
actor on the mat for instance, the
public would care no more for his game
than it did Is years ago when there
was more bone bending than grunting
and more empty seats than filled ones
in the houses OF torture.
But the knuckle twister of TODAY is
an actor in a still greater sense, and
IL a record of what he Is doing for
charity was to be published 1t would
startle a lot Of people who only knew
the bone Blenders as a group of large
gentlemen with Tin ears, bull necks
and foreign accent.
Joe Turner. local keeper Of the herd
has twice assisted charitable causes in
the last months. Wrestling in New
York and Philadelphia have been dig
ging deep and constantly without much
ado. At Baltimore the other night
Londos wrestled for the benefit of
crippled children, and these are but
isolated cases of what is continuously
going on in the racket.
Just a few months ago Ray Fabiani
OF Philadelphia dug into his jeans for
a juicy sum to give to Quaker City
portionate reaching for the purse strings
by every wrestler on a card being pro-
duced there at the time.
The only stipulation in rendering the
gift was that the show from which the
proceeds were garnered was not to be
labeled benefit one by the newspapers.
Wrestling promoters do not like to
have their cards termed charity ones.
One of the reasons Is that fans look
upon these benefit affairs as being
more or less of show stunts where titles
are never at stake and athletes never
give any more than their worst efforts.
And the fan is not wrong in his view,
either A great many Of the charity
athletic contests have been nothing
more than acts and the cash customer
has had to pay heavily. In most cases
the fan would have rather stayed at
home and have given his money.
But from what I can learn about
Turner's procedure in these matters is
cards for the, assistance of the unfor-
tunate are just as good as those from
which he hopes to pocket a fat return.

against its opening trial with Wiscon-
sin In the offing. ready to prove that
"On, Wisconsin," means something.
The same is true of the Notre Dame
Pitt game. Northwestern would have
been the big test for Notre Dame. but
no battle fought in a Quagmire and a
deluge can prove much. Pitt has one
of her best teams. and Pitt has known
her share of foot ball strength.
The Yale-Army game will be inter-
esting in marking the progress of Yale's
new offense. For the Army has enough
defensive strength to test any attack
now running around.
Z Asst weeks Harvard-Army game
was one Of the hardest fought
battles Of any season. ANY number
OF stars on both sides were pretty well
worn down and had to be relieved.
But here Is something worth talking
about-Barry Wood played so minutes
of that contest and he kept himself
when he could take things gently or
ease up. And he took his full share Of
the hammering.
"Yet," remarked Mai. Ralph Sasse,
the Army coach, when talked to
Wood Immediately after the game I
felt sure he could have played at least
two more quarters without being re-
lieved. I couldn't understand 1t when
I considered all the work he. had been
doing and the way he played. It was
a remarkable exhibition of stamina and
condition, as well as all-around foot
ball skill"

BROU|LLARD NEW
KING OF WELTERS
Fren he an adam Youth
Beats Thompson DeCisiveIy
in 15-Round Scrap.

BY the Associated Press
IN OSTON, October 24.-Lou Brouil-
K lard, 20year-old French-Ca-
madam youth from Worcester,
today occupies the welterweight
throne.
The rugged youngster beat Jack
Thompson, who had gained the title
from Jackie Fields two years ago. A
furious barage of left hooks dropped
the Negro champion twice during last
nights l5-round battle in the Boston
Garden and the title passed by unani-
nous decision.
The championship bout, the first held
IN this State in IL years and the first
such welterweight contest since Honey
Melody, Boston, defeated Joe Walcott,
drew capacity attendance of 49, 90
Boston Garden officials estimated the
gate receipts at $4,000. Thompson's
contract called for so per cent of this
amount and Brouillard received 10 per
cent IN addition to the Championship
Thompson on Bike.
Thompson allowed himself to be
chased about the ring during II of the
Is sessions, Brouillard pounding his
head and body with lefts as he grace
fully digeSted but few of the many
straight rights eined at him. The
Negro was beaten to the canvas in the
tenth and thirteenth, staying down for
nine in both rounds. He forced the
fighting only in the third round and
gained the edge in two other sessions
with a counter-attsck that surpassed
Brouillard's aggressive tactics;
Thompson tried to claim a foul in
the sixth, when Brouillard landed a
dubious hook that was described as a
foul by several observers who had an
excellent view of the blow. Thompson
and his handlers protested, but Referee
Johnny BRASIL refused to heed THIN.
Brouillard was equally decisive here sew
eral months ago when he outpointed
Thompson in a l0-round non-title affair.

THE new plan for the proposed
| Federal hunting license fee.
which will be presented to Con-

"HE new plan for the proposed
Federal hunting license fee,
which will be presented to Con-
gress shortly after it convenes
December /, under the sponsorship of
the American Game Association and
other interested sportsmen, was out
lined today by Seth Gordon, president
of the American Game Association.
1t is proposed that the various States
simply sell stamps, stuck to the State
hunting license for which the licensee
shall pay 81 in addition to the price Of
the State license. the stamp proceeds to
go to the Federal Government.
It also is proposed that there be an
immediate bond issue to start the work
of retaining for the ducks the vast
breeding areas in Northwestern United
States ans Southwestern Canada that
have disappeared in the past 20 years
through drought and the drainage ditch
and pillow. The loan, of course, would
be repaid with the proceeds of the sale
of Federal hunting stamps.
Mr.. Gordon today declared that the
legal aspects of the proposed legislation
have been gone into thoroughly ana
passed by eminent lawyers.
about 95 per cent Of the interested
members of Congress who have been
approached on the subject have eX-
pressed their heartiest approval OF the
plan, in view of the grave situation
which at present exists with practically
all of the duck breeding areas either
dried up from the drought OF the past
10 years, or under cultivation raising
grain or other agricultural surpluses,'
hs said.
MR.. GORDON said some slight oppo-
wi sition has been found from those
who believe the imposition of a
Federal hunting license might curtail
the sale Of licenses by the respective
States.
II don't believe the collection Of a
Federal hunting license fee will have
any effect on the issuance Of State IL
censes other than to increase the num-
Der Of State licensees by bringing into
line a number Of persons who have
been trying to get away with hunting
without licenses in past years.
These persons have been content to
try to get away with something under
the state licensing system. Monkeying
with Uncle Sam will be different mat
ter. Rather than take a chance of
running atol the Federal courts. the

YOTRE DANES hardest contest
Of the year may be against
Southern California, but the
South Bend foot ball men have


no easy job ahead of them today when
they entertain Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh
has a good team.
Pennsylvania will get its first real
tryout of the year against Wisconsin.
One thing in favor OF the men from
Madison is that they get thorough
test against Purdue and have had
chance to estimate their strong and
weak points, develop the former and
correct the latter. Perina, the powerful
Penn back. is likely to give any oppo-
nent trouble.
New York University and Colgate
should furnish enc .of the thrilling con-
tests of the\weck. Here, presumably.
are two of the strongest teams in the
country. If New York can win this
one, Chick Meehan will feel vastly more
confident concerning the game sched-
uled with Georgia. Meanwhile, the
Georgians must strive to keep their rec
ord clear against the opposition Of VAN
derbilt.
Although some Of them appear to
have fairly easy games, it is certainty
that foot balls list Of 80 unbeaten
teams will be considerably reduced by
next Saturday night.
VALE and Army almost invariably
/ manage to give the spectators
plenty of excitement. Yale, this
time ,swill be using type CT attack with

trieve the prestige they lost in their
game with Harvard. Army, in spite of

SLATE IS PACKED
WITH TITLE T|LTS
Largest Attendance of Year
Expected-Eight Games
in Dixie Conference.

N Jew YORK, October "a
| nj National and sectional title
/ Y hopes were at stake in a
score Of the Nations foot
ball stadia today. The double
barreled attraction of important
intersectional games and renewals
OF ancient gridiron rivalries was
expected to bring out the largest
aggregate attendance Of the sea-
son.
OF the heavy slate Of intersectional
| contests none was so vital to national
recognition as the tangle of Pitts
Panthers and the Ramblers Of Notre
Dame at South Bend. The Panthers,
with a veteran line and a speedy back
field headed by Heller and Reider,
hoped to give the Ramblers a better
battle than last year, when they sur
rendered, IS to 19.
Invading the Midwest along with
Pitt were Oregon and Georgetown, the
former TO meet the indicated North
Dakota outfit and the latter to face
Michigan State
In turn, the Midwest sent Purdue
and Wisconsin of the Big Ten, Drake
Of the Missouri Valley Conference and
Marquette. a strong independent, into
the East. Purdue was matched against
Carnegie Tech. Wisconsin with Penn
"a NI
Marquette with Boston College. Ad-
vance indications pointed to Midwest
ern victories except for Drake.
COMPLETING the Eastern intersec-
~ tional slate was Texas invasion Of
Cambridge to face Harvard. The
outstanding intrasectional games in the
East pitted Army against Yale at New
Haven, Navy against Princeton at
Princeton, Colgate against New York
University at New York, Penn State
against Syracuse, Washington and JEFF
ferSon against Lafayette and Rutgers
against Holy Cross
In the Big Ten Northwestern's strug-
gle with Ohio State topped by a slight
margin the Michigan Illinois fray at
Evanston. Other Big Ten games sent
Iowa against Minnesota and Indiana
against Chicago.
The Big Six" played an all-confer-
ence schedule. with Kansas facing Ne
braska, Oklahoma playing the Kansas
Aggies and Missouri meeting Iowa
State.
FIGHT games were listed in the
~ Southern Conference, with the
contests involving Tennessee and
North Carolina. Georgia and Wander
bilt. Tulane and Georgia Tech and Au-
burn and Florida leading the rest
Other conference games involved Vlr-
GINA and Washington q Lee. Mary
