ltolions Foil to Chase British Out of MoIto ? MALTA, lying 14O miles from
 the Italian mainland and 180 from Africa, is Britain's naval base, in the middle Mediterranean. It is a British bulwark betwSen Gibraltar on the west and Alex andria and Suez on the east.
 Since 1798, when England seized the island from Napoleon, Malta has been under British con- trol. It is a British Crown Colony consisting of three islands, Malta, Gozo and Comino. The govern ment issued the stamp above, showing the important harbor at Valletta, in 1901.
 Lord Nelson, who captured the island, said: Malta is absolutely worthless as British naval base 3 Until the myth of Italian military strength was exploded in World War II, Malta was considered hopelessly vulnerable by the Brit ish. The proximity of the is- land to Italy along with the vaunt- ed Italian air arm were thought to be too severe handicaps for the British defenders.
 ! Italy has boxed in the island fortress by mines and subjected it to repeated air attack without much success.

Chicago Coach
.Di(keriing for
Lions Players
BY EDGAR HAYES

on q DAY like today, II s no won
der our thoughts wander 10 foot
ball and here are. few gridiron
notes. Jimmy Councilman. head
and vice president of the Chicago
Cardinals was in Detroit over the
weekend. He didn't discuss his
mission with the press but dropped
a hint that he was talking trades
with the Detroit Lions.
II wouldn't surprise Councilman
n he is able 10 swing a deal with
the, Lions sending Marshall Gold
berg here for Howie Weiss. They
are both fullbacks. Goldberg has
never lived up 10 expectations in
Chicago but might work into Bill
Edwards style OF play.
HOWE Weiss is in the insurance
business and expects 10 be moved
10 Milwaukee. Playing in Chicago
would be LOT easier for him than
competing with the Lions.
Fritz Crisler of Michigan can
be head coach Of the All Stars
against the Chicago Bears If he
wants the job. The Wolverine
mentor turned It down once but
the officials have offered it again.
He is reconsidering.
If Crisler doesn't take il the job
will 60 10 Biff Jones the soldier
coach OF the sensational Nebraska
team. Jones is well know n
throughout the Midwest and his
choice would be popular one.
Johnny kimbrough will present
problem TO the All-Star game Of
ficials. With the exception of Tom
Harmon. the Texas fullback is the
outstanding football personality in
the land. But the Texan has
signed 10 play football with the
American League New York Yam
KEGS while the All Stars do bust
ness with the National League
kimbrough is sure 10 he among
the high vote getters in the annual
poll. but the National League will
not be happy 10 have him share
the spotlight on their biggest
night.
Benny Oosterbaan. assistant
coach at the University of Michi-
gan who has been in Arizona for
( several months with his son who
is in poor health. has returned "a
the campus. Wally Weber. the
( freshman coach at Ann Arbor. is
still busy several nights week
with banquets.
Fritz Crisler may 60 10 Cali
fornia with Tom Harmon when the
Michigan hack makes his movie

football in the picture to Justify A
/ technical director and Crlsler may
get the job.
