Width of the Hains Point course
has been doubled for the power
boat races in the Presidents Cup
Regatta next week end and the
larger area should afford the top
notch pilots an opportunity to estab-
lish many, new records as they shoot
for Guy Lombardo's scalp. Races
get under way at noon Friday and
heats will start at the same time on
Saturday and Sunday.
Lombardo, who first received rec
ognition with his famous Royal
Canadians Orchestra, became inter-
ested in the big speedboats and has
become almost as we'll known as q
powerboat skipper. In his Tempo vi,

Navy Coach Will Rely
More on Speed and I

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Sept. IT,
Navy's football squad appeared
husky enough at yesterdays annual
dress rehearsal for cameramen, but
Coach Tom Hamilton said he will
rely more on speed and the T-forma-
ton to win games this season.
A two-week training period at
Marthas Vineyard, Mass, and two
day scrimmage against West Vir-
ginia gave the Navy mentor a good
line on his charges and it is prob
able that only three men who started
against Army last autumn will open
against Villanova here September %.
Another scrimmage with Georgetown
later this week is reported in the
making.
Probable starters are Center Dick
Scott, Jim Darlington and Ken
Schiweck, guards; Randy Lawrence
and Newbold Smith, tackles; Roy
Russell and Art Markell, ends; John
Welsh, quarterback; John Bartos
and Pete Williams, halves, and Bill
McClain, fullback.
Navy's line will average about 1876
pounds.

Collins 10 LET BerteIIi
Play for Los Angeles
BY the Associated Press

BOSTON, Sept. 17.-Angelo Bertelli,
Notre Danes one-time springfield
rifle wants to play football so, with
the blessing of Owner Ted Collins
of the Boston Yanks, he is going to
play for the Los Angeles Dons of
the rival All-America Conference.
Bertelli, a Marine Pacific veteran,
has been prevented by court order
from playing with any club but the
Dons
Collins had announced that Bertelli,
whom he drafted for his Boston
National Football League club, would
scout for his team.
But Angie, master of the "T'' as a
quarterback and one of the Nations
top forward passers, talked with
Collins over the phone and said he
would rather play the game.
So Collins, sportsman who has
lost money two years in row with
his Boston entry in the National
League, gave Angie his blessing and
recommended that he report at once
to the Dons.
From Los Angeles came word that
Slip Madigan, general manager of
the Dons, would welcome Bertelli
back with open arms"

Injury TO Young Blow
To Skins as Tilt With
Tough Bears Nears
By Lewis F. Atchison

Bill Young's injury today gave
the Redskin coaching staff
weighty problem to wrestle with as
the pro football squad opened
drills at College Park for Sundays
important exhibition game with the
Chicago Bears at Baltimore. "Bub-
bles' was a keyman in the Skins
plans, and if his twisted ankle
keeps him on the sidelines 1t will
be a serious blow to their hopes.
The Redskins have only five
tackles-and pretty good ones. too
but Don Avery and Big John
Koniszewski are the only two in
good physical condition. That isn't
enough to Shackle the Bears pow
erful line-busting offense.
This latest development probably
means the game will become a free
scoring duel. Some observers think
the Bears had enough power to
whip the Philadelphia Eagles by 80
points more than they did. George
Halas is reported to be three deep
in every position, with little to
SAioOoC bCt"CClI 1CSU UldIS dIlO re-
serves. The same dopesters say the
Bears are a cinch to rack up at
least three touchdowns and pos
sibly four
In that event, the Tribe will have
to get five and as long as Sammy
Baugh is available it might do it.
Eddie Saenz is. developing into a
threat comparable to Steve Bagarus,
although "Buggsy" still tops in a
broken field. Dick Todd has shown
a sudden affinity for certain plays
heretofore reserved for Frank Atkins
and Fullbacks Sal Rosato and Al
Couppee have demonstrated that
they can get not only two or three
yards when needed, but five or 10.
The Skins have scoring punch
with their first-stringers ready, but
Sundays game will give the line
the severest test it has faced thus
far. You won't see them because
they'll be busy digging in-or digging
out-but such gentlemen as Smiley"
Ward, Oscar Britt and Johnny
Jaffurs, Glenn Stralka and John
Steber are the ones who probably
will decide the Redskins fate.
The Variety Clubs of Baltimore
and Washington at joint commit
tee meeting yesterday announced
that the game is certain to be a
financial success and that every
effort now is being made to assure
an artistic triumph Tentative
plans call for appearances by Danny
Kaye, Ole Olson, Mary Small and
other well known personalities from
the theatrical world and they won't
merely be on exhibition between
halves. They'll put on a real show.

Candini. who yielded three-run
homer to Roy Cullenbine in the
seventh, when the Tigers scored four
runs.
Mats Shell Overmire.
The Mats were operating with an
11-2 deficit when they came up with
three runs in the eighth. They sue
ceeded in shelling Stubby Overmire
from the mound and dented George

when George Binks belted across
both scores with single, but that
early Detroit lead remained COM
Portable.

outfielder, has been notified by Pres
ident Bill Veeck of the Indians that

Veeck gave no reason for calling of
