 The downtown Federal Building would house the Post Office, the Signal Corps and other offices most patronized by the public, giving them a central location.

Bowman In First Match
At Legion Stadium

Jake Patterson, 235.pound mailman
from Syracuse, N. Y, handed Tiny
Morgan, the 306-pound Texas giant,
his second defeat in the ring last
night as he out-roughed the South
vests bad man to gain a sluggish
two out of three falls decision in
the feature bout at Legion stadium.
A piano leg hold gave the Texas
tall man the first fall after 20 min
utes of $3.50 graphing in which he
was the dominating figure. The pace
quickened in the second heat. In
fact, even Referee Smith was drawn
into the combat zone, so heated was
the struggle. Patterson finally won
the argument with a crowd-pleasing
flying routine. The time was
10 minutes. Marvin Jones replaced
Smith as the third man in the ring
for the last fall, but his presence
had no effect upon Patterson who
caught the big boy from the rear
and downed him with a nifty flying
tackle to hang up the fall and the
match. The time was five minutes.
In the curtain raiser, Marvin
Jones captured a carefree two cut

Talent Raiding
At any rate, just about every
school in the South worth mention
ing in preseason bowl bid specu-
lation is being charged with raid
ing the football talent OF other sec
tons in the country.
And for this reason, a NUMBER
of the deep-purple Eastern colleges
and Universities are saying they
won't play southern schools any
more. They will though. A
even though this is the reason they
give for c%ancelling games, it may
be because national gridiron su-
premacy is moving to the south.
Dope Book
All this is given a little play with
words in the Football Year Book
which recently hit the newsstands
and in this meaty volume is the
experts opinions on the leaders in
the respective conferences.
Duke is the No. l team in the
Southern conference, they a y,
with North Carolina running sec
ond best. Clemson and Wake For
est are also in for a bit of touting.
The book is of the opinion that
if Duke can get past Tennessee at
Knoxville it may well 60 unbeaten
again. And there might be a bid
to a bowl in the offing. Carolina
is rated as the leading threat to
the Blue Devils supremacy main
ly because of the passing of Jim
Lalanne and the catching of Paul
SEVERN.
Interesting, they say, will be the
race in the Southeastern Confer
ence. And in this circuit, where
the coal mine charges" are most
prevalent, Georgia Tech is given
the biggest plug. Tennessee ana
Alabama are rated as equals and
just about every other team is
given a chance to pull a few up
sets.
At least, if they are correct in
their diagnosis-and we are in
clined to think they are pretty
close to it southern football
should be well worth watching this
fall.
Championship Play
The championship series Of the
Independent loop will begin Tues
day of next week, with Taylor
Colquitt, winners of the first half,
tackling the Wertheimer Bagmak-
ers, second half champs. In view
of their spectacular play in recent
weeks, the Bagmen will rule a
