darkened by a bloody smear
charged into the fray with berSerk
fury. His fists whirled and thudded
home, but Stella gave as good as
was sent, ripped left counters to
tho body, and, If anything, had a
slight edge on the round
That fifth round saw Stella
reach his peak, and in the sixth,
his most effective punch, a blast
ing left hook, was not quite enough
to win for him.
In the semifinal bout Ivan Ne
domatsky, former University OF
Maryland boxing ace, made
chopping block Of Hunter Cros'
tic, of Richmond, knocked him
down three times, and easily won
the decision.
NedomatSky has taken on some
Of the professional polish in the
last year. He is a hard hitter
with his left hand, but he will
have to learn how to punch
straight before he can hope tc
scale the heights. He is effective
only when hitting on the outside
arcs, and in the professional rings
he will find difficulty in finding
targets willing to sacrifice them
selves to his hitting power.
Nedomatsky has a natural left
shift. He will let go a right and
whirl inte a fine reproduction OF
the Ketchell shift. He Is too wide
with it now, but the boy can box
and a little experience will help
him. He can take a punch and
carry on with his work.

No matter how you slice it you
can't keep the All.America collegi-
ate eleven's tackle positions away
from two husky chaps Of Italian
descent-Tony Matisi, PittSburgh's
lithsome behemoth, and Edmund
Franco, Fordham's battering ram.
Neither Of these two stalwart eX-
ponents Of de luxe tackling has
been placed worse than on the sec
ond All-America eleven selected
from Tyson's Corner tt Turnip-
vile, and most frequently they
have copped the top berths with
out a whimper Of dissent.
Which with the presence Of pow
erful Vic Bottari, California's AL.
Pacific fullback, in the immediate
All-America foreground, is q good
start toward an All-Italian.Amer-
ican eleven which would make it
tough for any seasoned pro or col
legiate eleven you can name' In
cluding the Redskins.
If Minnesota considers Vic
Spadaccini good enough to hold
down its quarterback job who are
we to argue? Minnesota rates
among the country's five best
teams, you know.
Fred Vanzo, who beat Purdue
almost singled handed for North
western, can start at one Of the
half-back positions with Dick
Nardi, Big Ten leading scorer for
Ohio State, at the other.
The line does not glitter quite
as brightly as the backfield ex.

but with Franco and MatiSi to
set the pace at tackle, Bill Dad

sandwiched around Eddie Cato,

Gotham guard, and with Cal Cal
velH Of Stanford, doing the center
work, the line would have enough
solidity to repulse powerful attacks
and speed and smartness to break
up opposing plays.
The line, however, would be shy
on reserves with only Steve Petro,

Lou 0ehrig is cupping an attentive
ear Hollywood way today, waiting
for the summoning demand Of
art. Last spring while Yankee
holdout, the big guy took a screen
test and was signed for the films.
Now he is awaiting the call.
Just when H Hollywood will
beckon, he doesn't know. He
thinks he will leave the day after
Christmas. Neither does he know
with any certainty the role he
will play, the nature Of the story,
the members Of his cast. He hopes
one Of them will be Irene Dunno,
his favorite.
All he is sure Of is that he is
ready. Hollywood can count on
Gehrig. He won't throw art down.
"But it's not going to be any
Tarzan part, you can be sure Of
that" the muscle man Of base
ball said.
Several scrips are under consid.
Grafton for Louis debut. One
which finds favor has him a re.
tired ball player, Of all things. He
Is alone in the world but for his
sister. Lou takes Sis out West to
seek their fortune. They buy a
ranch and run afoul some nasty,
tough guy ruStlers who make
trouble. But Lou amt afeerd,
poddner, he battles the rustlers
and one of the righteous lawyers
Of the COW country joins in on
Louis side. OF course, the yeggs
are routed and Lou is the hero.
