Joe Cox, the Kansas Krasher, is
back on the Washington rassling
circuit after few months of tour
ing the Midwest and right away is
hurling challenges at all and sun
dry.
He meets Warren (Flash) Book
winkle In q supporting bout to
Thursdays feature between Milo
Steinborn and the Angel, freakish
French grappler, but he is aiming
higher. He wants a match with
the Angel-nothing less than a fea-
ture match at that-and also a
chance at the Green Hornet, masked
artist who has lost only once in 10

By LEWIS F. ATCHIsON.

Eddie La Fond, q man Of many

head football coach, succeeding Ar
thur J. Dutcn Bergman, who re-
signed.
Boxing coach, director Of intra-
mural sports and freshman football
coach, La Fond's appointment was
announced by the Rev. James A.
Magner, procurator of the univer-
sity.
Accompanying Bergman's resigna-
ton was that of his line coach and
aide de camp, Forest G. Fod Cot
ton. Both are effective June !.
In making the change Father
Magner issued the following state

In line with a policy being adopt

Then, if I manage to get weight
in there as well, it means an extra
foot or more for me-" he explained.
There's only one man in competi-
ton today whom Blozis fears.
That's Earl Audet, 250-pound
Georgetown freshman who wasn't
eligible for the I. C. 4-A meet, but
will be in there against Al next Sat-
urday when the annual Knights of
Columbus games end the Garden

The K. of C. games, besides Blozis,
will bring 2-miler Greg Rice, Milers
Les MacMitchell and Walter Mehl,
Hurdlers Fred Wolcott and Allan
Tolmich, and Pole Vaulter Earle

Rice is said to be aiming at cutting

NEW YORK, March 3-This is
the time of the year when the bas-
ket ball experts" work harder than
the boys who spend their evenings
running up and down a hardwood
floor trying to toss ball through
an elevated hoop.
The major part of the seasons
work for the players-settling their
sectional Championships nearly
over. Titles that haven't already
been decided probably will be this
week. But the experts" are just
starting the task of picking out the
teams that will compete for the
various national championships.
Representatives of various sec
tions must be chosen for the ma
tional collegiate A A. tournament.
In most cases the conference cham
pions get first call, but occasionally
there are powerful independents"
to be considered or else the champs
don't want to play any more. In
diana won this tournament last year
after finishing second in the Big
Ten race.
New York's national intercollegiate
invitation tournament will run four
nights at Madison Square Garden
this year and plans call for wider
representation than ever before.
The New York basket ball writers
have the job of picking teams for
this meet. Then there's the national
intercollegiate tournament at Kan
sas City, which brings out the
mighty small-college teams. A few
college quintets usually enter the
national A. A. q. tournament, al
though they seldom go far in 1t.
The championships of the South
ern, Southeastern, Big Ten and Pa
cifio Coast, northern division, cir
cults we're decided last week with
the titles going to Duke, Tennessee,
Wisconsin and Washington State,
respectively. Arkansas in the
Southwest Conference and STAN
ford in the Pacific Coast southern
division previously had clinched
their crowns.

ticularly affecting major football.
While it is not the intention of the
university to abandon this field en-
tirely, there will be a considerable
retrenchment, with increasing en-
phaSis given to intramural sports.
The resignation of Mr.. Bergman
and Mr.. Cotton at this time, al
though a matter of considerable re-
gret to the university because of
their long and valued service, is
understandable in view of this
policy. Both men leave behind them
an enviable record and retain the
most cordial relations of the Catho-
lie University, with which they have
identified themselves for the past
several years.

The Missouri Valley loop offers the
hottest race with Creighton and
Oklahoma A. and M apparently
headed for tie. Creighton leads
now by half game and has one to
play against Washburn. The Aggies,
at top form since Lonnie Eggleston
got back into the lineup, finish this
week against Tulsa and Drake, both
of which have outside chances for a
frst-place tie.
The question in the Eastern
League is whether Dartmouth, ap-
parently headed for its fourth
straight title, will slip enough to be
overtaken by Columbia. The In
dians have won eight games and
lost one, Columbia six and two.
They come together at New York a

average tackle in football Since
most people like best what they can
do best, you'd think his preferences
would come in that order.
But the big boy from Georgetown

There's so much more to foot

preferring it. For the same reason
I'd rather toss the discus than the

one thing. and besides, it keeps you
busy more of the time-at least
when you've thrown the discus you
have to walk farther to pick it up"
Even so, year by year Blozis has
to walk farther to retrieve those
16-pound shots he heaves around so
noncnalantly.
Saturday, in fact, he had to walk
56 feet 6 inches. This is farther
than any shotputter ever has had
to walk in this country and only 7
inches less than Jack Torrance had
to go after one he pitched to the
world outdoor record in Norway
seven years ago this August.
That 561z -footer came on the Sec

a winner all the way, yet he didn't

ORLANDO, Fla, March 3.-It
probably is just as we'll for Alexandra
Carrasquel's big league future that
the Nationals are woefully shy OF
pitching material. AS these lines
were written, grapefruit league COM
petition rapidly was sneaking up
and the only South American in the
majors still was missing.
The same thing happened last
year, except that Carrasquel wasn't
penalized by his late start due to
his habit of pitching in the winter
But President Clark Griffith sup
posedly gave Carrasquel strict orders
to loaf in Venezuela during the off
season of 1940-41 and if Alexandra
followed instructions the pock-
marked old senior is going to have a
lot of catching-up to do.
Carrasquels hold on job with
the Mats is shaky, at best. The
gaunt geezer has plenty of stuff on
the ball and he knows what it is all
about. With his overland and
sidearm deliveries he is capable OF
bothering plenty of hitters but ever
since he first joined the Washington
club two springs ago he has had
the habit of making that one bad
pitch, usually when it hurt most.
Topped 1910 Relief Pitchers.
Still and all, Carrasquels record
for 1910 showed that he was the
most successful relief pitcher on
the squad. He pitched in % games
and had a record Of six victories as
against only two defeats. Manager
Bucky Harris doubts that he is as
good as that record would seem to
indicate but there is no denying that
Carrasquel is far better than most
of the pitchers in camp.
Where he was this morning was
something that Griffith was unable
to answer. The other pitchers have
been here since February 20 ano
most of them are ready to pitch q
few innings.
His boat from Venezuela was
supposed to dock in New York or
February 27," Griffith says. IT knew
he would be little late, but didn't
think he would show up even later
than the infielders and outfielders.
Alexandra undoubtedly will have
a good excuse, but that won't help

One day of watching the regu-
lars perform in the morning work

CHICAGO, March 3.-Chicago's
Joe Stampf needs to score only 9
points against Indiana tonight to
win the individual scoring title of
the Big Ten Conference basket ball
campaign.
Gene Englund of Wisconsin played
his final league contest Saturday
with 13 points, giving him a total
of 162. Stampf has 154 points now
and finishes his bid tonight on his
home floor.
The lanky Maroon center has
scored 8 or more points in each Of
II conference games and has IA
point average, indicating he should
win the scoring title. Enslund's final
average was 1875, leaving him only
2 points behind the 164 total which
gave Bill Hapac of Illinois the title
a year ago. Jewell Young of Purdue
scored 1s4 points In 1888 for the best
conference mark.

This other friend who recommend
