MAT DONOVAN'S CHOICE
Wrestler Says Joe Louis Need Not

Victor McLaglen, one of Holly

ed Jack Dempsey in search of white
hope for boxing and now is trying to
persuade Irish Jack Donovan. locally
prominent wrestler, to desert the mat
and ,re-enter the ring.

Canzoneri 30 Years Old.

CANZONER1 is bearded patriarch,
doddering old fellow. with
creaks in his joints. as far as ring lives
60. The wiseacres consigned him to
boxings home for the aged and in
firm years back. If the records are
straight, he has lived 80 years and
much of that time has been spent
with leather mittens on his knobby
fists.
A review of the advancing brigade,
the little fellows whose plans embrace
no success for Canzoneri, shows a
wealth of good boxers and sharp
punchers, but few who combine these
attributes to the extent that Tony
does.
Lou Ambers, the Herkimer hurri-
cane who dropped a decision to Can
zoneri in their first meeting. has re-
covered from a broken jaw and battled
his way up into contention. But he
wasn't toe impressive against frankie
Klick. Wesley Ramey of Grand Rap
ids. Mich. has been coming along at
a fast clip and Cleto Locatelli, the
Italian cavalier. showed enough in
losing two close ones to Tony that he
might have his big night and turn
the tables.

"A YEW YORK, January 20.-The
East's unofficial Ivy League"
recently hailed as possible
4 last stronghold OF amateur
ISM in foot ball, is mounting the
big time bandwagon.
The seven old-guard colleges have
not gone so far as some of the "inde-
pendents' in emphasizing and col.
lecting on gridiron proves.
It's far cry, however. from the
recently signed agreements for Har-
ward Chicago and Dartmouth-Stan-
ford games to the days when the old
Big Three agreement clanped down
on long trips and when Bill Roper
and Tad Jones agreed not to scout
each others teams.
There was eyebrow raising then
when Princeton decided that a visit
to Columbus to play Ohio State
sholld no be considered long trip.
Now there is talk of possible Prince
ton Minnesota series to calm some
of the arguments over which had the
better team last. year.
Princeton Points Way.

Yale and Harvard were quick to
follow the Tiger lead In coaching.
The Ellis obtained Earle Greasy

assist Ducky Pond, and Harvard coun-
tered by installing Dick Harlow as its
first non- graduate head coach.
Cornell and Pennsylvania have re-
mained the Ivy Leagues conservatives
In their schedules. but Corneli's new
athletic set-up. its efforts to attract
a few good foot ball players and the
recent inquiry among the alumni as
to whether the coaching system is at
fault indicates the Ithacans have
no intention of being left far behind.
Columbia Branches Out.

resume an interrupted relationship

Signs of the Ivy influence also are
seen in recent actions of two middle

three into strong conservatism.
