have it that both Louis and Conn
look like a couple of shopworn

most of the out-of-town sports

high hopes in announcing a heavy

BILLY COLBERT booster for
many years, and now that he has
been given this one big chance to
really show his stuff, Pm sure that
at this time next year when every
body makes book, it will be to
everyone's gain. There are
many nice things that can be said
about roly-poly Colbert, the new
boxing promoter from st. Paul.
Billy is what you call the poor
mans boxing promoter. Not
having any too much cash until
the past couple of seasons, Billy
is now ready to make capital with
out too much outside help. The
little fellow around the gym, or
Johnny or Jim at the cigar store
are all cheerin' for Billy to make
good. He is honest, and as
said, his best friends are the little
people. . Now given a chance to
meet the big names of the Twin
Cities. .. He'll do a good job there,
too. Boxing has been his life.

If Billy has missed more than a
handful of amateur boxing shows
in both cities during the past year.
-. Billy, you have our best wishes.
And to Eddie Williams, the for
mer st. Paul promoter. Now
you know why the referee insists
that the fighters come out fighting.
Heart-breaking business? You
said it! And you should agree

Army and Notre Dame remained
unbeaten last Saturday by playing
their spectacular scoreless deadlock
in New York's YANKEES Stadium, and
each should have the sazaa un-
sullied record when toun0rruW's
games are finished.
A worn Army eleven likely will
have the harder task tomorrow,
taking on Pennsylvania, but the
Cadets should show new life. How
ever, the Quakers have the ability to
end Army's unbeaten string abrupt
ly, especially If an early breaklcomes
their way.
Northwestern's lack Of an ade-
quate passing attack should make
Notre Danes task Of remaining
among the unbeaten easier than
Arrny's job.
Other selections:
Illinois over Ohio State: Both OF
these clubs got of to a slow start
but today they are probably as
strong as any Midwestern outfit
with Illinois, victor over Michigan
the more consistent.
Arkansas over Southern Meth
odist: Arkansas, stepchild of the
Southwest Conference for years, has
q chance to tie for the 1946 crown
by defeating the Mustangs. The
Porkers won't miss their chance.
Yale Set to Stop Princeton.
Yale over Princeton: The Yale
line has solidified at last and the
quarterbacking problems have been
eliminated.
