RAWSON EASILY GAINED TITLE
 OF N. E. CHAMP
Melody Outclassed for Lightweight Crown
 at Boston

Boston, Ocs. 24.-(wP).-Follow- ing in the footsteps of his father, Tommy Rawson, Jr., of East Boston was New England lightweight box ing champion today as result of his clean-cut victory in 12-round bout over Honey Melody of Charles town at Boston arena last night.
 Tommy, ST., boxing instructor at Massachusetts Institute of Technol- ogy, held the title 30 years ago. Outside the first and last rounds Melody was clearly outclassed. The new champion had his opponent on the floor twice in the second round first from a left hook and then again with right to the jaw Melody was on the floor when the round ended.
 Rawson strove desperately to put over a knockout in the third round and, though he punished Melody severely, the latter remained on hi feet. From then on RawSon clearly had an edge.
 A dispute arose at the end of the third Sround, Rawson's handler charging that the round was cut short, thus saving Melody from possible knockout. The rest period also appeared o have been length ened. Both sportswriters and fans noticed the discrepancies in timing and for a time fans threatened trou- ble, but once the bout got under way again it was forgotten in the excitement.

BLACK ROCKS TO
 MEET MIRRORS
Southern Conn. Bowling League Rivals Roll Tonight

Five good matches are scheduled in the Southern Connecticut Duck pin Circuit, two for tonight and three for tomorrow.
 The Bridgeport Black Rocks make the trip to Waterbury tonight where they will meet the Blue Mirrors at the Mattatuck Recreation alleys. The Brass City team led by Bill Tato are just a step behind the Rocks in the league standing and should manage to make it interest ing for the visitors. The other Sat- urday pairing brings the Red Men of Prapford and the Newfields to- gether at the East Bridgeport alleys. The latter are at present occupy ing the cellar position, a rating they hardly deserve and they may use the visitors as stepping stone to climb out of the rut.
 Sunday Schedule
 Sundays schedule shows New Ha- ven with two matches and Derby with one. The Roger Shermans will show in Derby and the Pioneers would do well to be in form for the New Haveners, a team without any outstanding stars. have rolled well enough to be able to share fourth place with such aggregationssas the Black Rocks and the Hollands.
 At New Haven there will be more or less of. @ local championship when theeH Towards and the Crowns meet on the latters alleys. Rivals over a period of years, the Towards would give lot to dislodge their fellow townsmen from third place. The remaining match will bring the Elks Five and the, Hollands to- gether and while the odds favor the home team the Bridgeporters will give them plenty of opposition. At the beginning of the season they were regarded as the team the Eiks would have to defeat in order to annex the championship. The league table shows the Elks with a lead of three games over their op- ponents, so the match offers the Holland an opportunity to move closer to the antlered combination.

Today's s Sport Parade
 By Henry McLemore
tUnited Press stai, Correspondent,

land said, "that the originator of the play had never played football, in fact, had seen only few games, but had read so much about it in the newspapers that he considered him. self quite capable of devising a touchdown formation. I'm not sure we'll use 1t against Notre Dame, for it calls for only three men on the line and eight backfield men, and I'm afraid 1t would startle my boys as much as the Notre Dame players. And I don't want to startle my team any more. Duquesne was quite enough.
 On the Hop
 Another speaker was Judge Egan, the Pittsburgh jurist, who is one of the country's leading football ona- cials. The judge scarcely had time to finish his soup, because he had to catch train for New York where he will referee the Fordham-St. Mary's game. When he left, the club members, knowing what vicious battles Fordham and St. Mary's al- ways stage, said silent prayer that he would be returned safely on Mon- day, and all in one piece.
 Jay Berwanger, Chicago's AL America of last year, and now a football commentator for the Chi cago Daily News, gave 8 vivid ac- count of the trip Notre Danes Will liam Shakespeare and he took to Hollywood's artistic lots during the summer.
 Tt was the only place Shakes peace never got kidded about his name" Berwanger said. You see, the boys and girls out there never had heard it before"

Pittsburgh, Oct. 24--(UPl Con- somme and complaints, squab. and squawks, salad and second guesses, ice cream and I-told-you-so's.
 That is a typical menu of the Pittsburgh Curbstone Football Coaches club which sits down for luncheon each Monday of the grid- iron season to vocally replay the games of the preceding Saturday. The membership, which numbers about 300, is composed of the hottest football fanatics of this section, and this section is probably, the hottest hotbead of football in America.
 At 8 typical meeting there will be coaches of the leading schools in this area, ex-coaches, employers, and men who never coached or ever played, but who consider themselves absolute authorities on everything pertaining to the game, from the single wingback to mud cleats.
 All to Themselves
 These luncheons constitute the Utopia, the seventh heaven, for the Monday morning quarterbacks. They can squawk without interference and what is more they are guaran- teed an audience. There is no black board for them to use in illustrat- ing the strategy they would have employed at certain point, but the luncheon caterers thoughtfully pro- vide vast quantity of rolls. Wher squawker. wants to illustrate g play he simply grabs a handful oi rolls and uses them for men, Witt poppyseed rolls for backs. Parker Houses for linemen, and clover leafs for the opposition, he can drive home his point in masterful fashion
 I attended session of the club yesterday. The regular. session was on Monday (and they tell me it wa; a sweetheart, what with Pitt just licked by Duquesne) but President Chet Smith called another one in order to warm up the members for the Pitt-Notre Dame battle and ac- quaint visiting newspapermen with the organization ss
 One of the speakers at yesterdays session was Doctor Jock Sutherland, coach of the Pittsburghs. He warned Elmer Layden, Notre Dame coach, that he had better watch out for a trick play late in the. game for he (Sutherland) had just received a special delivery letter from a West Virginia mountaineer, enclosing a play he had evidently thought out while rolling down the mountain one day. & ] 5s4 r.,
