FOOTBALL Is OVER
But Finn KEEPS
BUSIEST MAN TITLE
Redwood Falls Man Captains
Chicago Hoop Team; Is
Blackfriars Abbot

Despite the fact that he called sig
mails for the Chicago Maroons for
the last time in the game with Hi
nois November "a, Tom Finn Of Red
wood Falls will still be the busiest
man" on the Midway campus and no
one will arise to make competing
claim for that designation. The rea-
sons are many, among the most i'm
portant of which is that Finn holds
the office of Abbot in the Black
friars, mems musical comedy or
ganization at the university, which
is engaged in preliminary prepare
tons for its annual extravaganza to
be presented in the spring.
AS Abbot, Finn has the response
bility of managing the business af-
fairs Of the show. That this is no
mean job is Indicated by the fact
that at numerous times during the
30-year history Of the Blackfriars,
expenditures for it's presentations
have run into four figures. Tryouts
for parts are open to all members of
the university, and new members OF
Blackfriars are chosen from among
the successful ones.
In addition, to a highly successful
season on the gridiron, it is expected
that Films name will be seen in the
sport headlines this winter when the
basketball season opens. He is cap
tain of the Chicago hoopsters and a
bulwark of the team. Other "spare
time" activities which Finn engages
in include active participation in the
affairs of Owl and Serpent, mems
senior honor society, and member
ship in Psi Epsilon, social fraternity
John Finn, a younger brother, also
belongs to Psi Epsilon.
During the football season just
closed Finn played throughout most
of every game without injury, de-
spite the fact that he weighs only
155 pounds. He scored four touch
downs, two against Missouri and two
against Purdue. He carried the ball
Is times for an average gain of Sc
yards per try. He threw five for
ward passes, three of which were
complete for total gain of 35 yards
He received passes for total gair
of 208 yards. Playing in the safety
position on defense, he turned in a
fine performance in tackling and re-
turned 20 punts a total of 217 yards

United Press STAFF Correspondent


NEW YORK. Sept. 15.-Hard-
jawed little Jimmy McLarnin. once
the baby-faced destroyer of ring
champions, will take his knuckle-
studded fists into Madison Square
Gardens big Long Island bowl to-
night for another try at welter-
weight champion Barney Rosa
champion Jimmy couldn't destroy.
Rain, which thrice delayed the
proceedings, will have to come down
in large Jumps to halt tonight's
brawl. 1t was drizzling early today
but the Garden and Christmas fund
promoter who are putting on the
show have announced That drizZleS
will not count.
Betting Is Brisk
Wagering on the fight is mora
brisk than any this year, includ-
ing the Baer-Carnera match. Ross
is the favorite at 7 to 5, and there
are many who believe this will mark
the end of the trail for grimlipped
Jimmy. The Irish terror of yester-
year will know tonight whether
those explosive fists that Strewed
prize rings with classic wreckage
over the past half dozen years, are
still the weapons of a killer or the
battle-Scarred relics of an eX-
champion.
If McLarnin loses, he probably
will quit the ring. Those who think
he will lose have just one big argu-
ment: Ross, the only fighter who
ever held both lightweight and well
ter crowns at the same time, is the
same young man who knocked the
championship hat off McLarnins
head last May, the first time out
against Jimmy.
The peppery little Chicago stock
yard socker outstepped and out
fought McLarnin that time. He
was a blazing machine-gun of
rapidf1re hitting. He took Nc
Larnin's hardest punches and kept
going.
McLarnin Backers Confident
And they naturally ask: What
has happned since to change
. things?"
McLarnins hackers, who are sup
porting their opinion with surpris-
ingly large hunks of cash, have two
answers. First, McLarnin will go into
tOnight's fight with no weight
strings except the welterweight limit
OF lat pounds. Last time he had
to make las pounds under a private
agreement with Ross, and UNDER
shot his mark, coming in at 142.
Secondly, there are quite a few
including Jimmy-who think Nc
Larnin won last time
The delay has done little damage
to the seat sales. Advance sales
have totalled $4,000, and a gate of
100000 is predicted.
