The Crosby High football combine will be at full strength when they meet Hartford Bulekeley at the Municipal Stadium tomorrow after noon at 2:45.T he Blue and White array will be shooting for their third victory in five starts. They were defeated by Torrington and Taft and have beaten Abbey Prep of Sitnsbury and last week stopped Naugatuck, 34 to 12.>
 Bernie Lawlor will be back in the quarterback slot after having been benched with injuries for the last two weeks and Johnny Kelley will also be fit for action tomorrow. Coach Lee has indicated that the probable Ivy backfield will show McWilliams and Nick Barone at the halfback posts; Lawlor at quarter back and White in the fullback berth. Despite the fact that Bulke- ley has won three straight contests to date this season the Blue and White have very good chance of taking the Insurance City aggN- gation. If their brand of football is up to that which they played last week they will put on a wonderful show.
 The big game of the weekend will be played on Saturday when Wilby and LeavenWorth clash in the first game of the Intra-Citl series. Tech is favored to win because of the fact that several Wilcat stalwarts are out with injuries.

New York, Oct. 31 - (UP) - British golf stars Dai Rees and Charles Ward will give strong con- petition to American golf profes- sionals in the P.G.A. circuit next month, it was predicted today by Craig Wood, after a practice round with the visiting stars.
 Wood, former Ryder Cup and U. s. Open Champion, said both Bri- fishers are great shotmakers. Both took 72 on the tough winged foot course yesterday as they warmed up for play in four U. S. tournaments starting at Pinehurst, N. C., on Nov. 5-7. After the tour nament swing they probably will challenge the top American links men-Ben Hogan and Byron Nelson ito match. Rees beat Nelson in a 1887 Ryder Cup match.

If the Trippi- Gilmer show at Athens, Ga, doesn't produce this weeks finest grid entertainment, you can pick your own headliner The System will string with unbeat- en, united, Trippi-paced Georgia, now the nations No. team, over once beaten, Gilmer-geared Ala bama.
 After last weeks results, 1t is to be hoped the games slated for the coming weekend cling closer to form. In the big games, the System favors Georgia Tech over Duke, Michigan over Minnesota in the Little Brown Jug classic, Notre Danes top-rated Irish to swamp the Navy, Oklahoma to best Texas Christian, and Tennessee to bounce back from it's shocking defeat last week by Wake Forest to blow under North Carolina.
 Internationally speaking, Miami U. will trim Villanova in Phila- delphias Shibe Park in a Friday headlner. Hardin Simmons trip West will pay off with win over Arizona, and Michigan State will be disappointed in their trip to Lex ington, where they will bow to Ken lucky.
 Rice, whose talented Owls knocked Texas off the No. 1 shelf last week. will play Texas Tech, a team the Owls, now No. in the nation, will do well to watch. It'll also pay Virginia to handle Rich nlond with gloves in another of Sat- urday's big, close ones.
 Other top-billed games Saturday will catch California taking Wash ington State; Brown defeating Holy Cross; Kansas State shading Iowa State; Oklahoma A. & M. downing Kansas; Oregon State dumping Stanford; Wisconsin handling Pur- due, use. clipping Oregon, and V.P~I. beating Clemson.
 The Systems pick-o -the-week offers Iowa over Illinois, while se- lections against the ratings favor Ohio State over Northwestern; Me- braska over Missouri; New Mexico A & M. to beat Tempe State; Tenn pie to take Syracuse, and Texas A. & M. to defeat Arkansas.
 Besides the Miami -Villanova game, Fridays slate also carries two other standout games. In one of them, Marquette rates ahead of De- troit, and in the other, U.CL.A. will win over St. Mary's The Uclans moved up in the Top Ten from 7th place to No. last week.
 In the Little Tennessee Cham pionship," the System will go along with Maryville over Murfreesboro.

Both Boys Had Same Ring Name

ProVldence, R. l., Oct. 31-(UP)- Tragedy stalked Bobby Burton of Manchester, N. H., and Bobby Bur- ton of Providence to the same prize light ring and struck after they had pelabored each other for most of six rounds.
 Today, Bobby Burton of Provi- dence, white, was released under $2,OOO bond after arraignment on technical manslaughter charge.
 Bobby Burton of Manchester, a Negro, was dead, felled by body blow shortly before the final bell. Police said their holding of the sur V1Vor was only routine while they checked the ring death. An autopsy was to be performed by medical ex- aminer Joe Picozzi today.
 Officials said the dead boxer was barred from fighting recently in New York because of a heart condi- Vlon. He was pronounced dead last night by Dr. Jamse J. Flanagan, ex- amining physician of the Rhode Is- land boxing commission who a few hours earlier had pronounced him physically fit.
 Both Ambitious
 There was much similarity in the professional careers of the two Bob- by Burtons who came to the same ring last night.
 Both were aspiring young welter- weights; both had ambitions some day to battle for the world welter- weight championship.
 That they had been matched in a preliminary to main event in a town little off the main stem was evidence that neither was quite ready to fulfill his ambition.
 Today, the chances for Bobby Bur- ton of Manchester, N. H., 24-years- old and the father of two children, are gone forever.
 That the winner, Bobby Burton of Providence, was credited with a clean knock out, was of little consolation to him. He broke down when inform. ed that the other Burton never got up.
 Down Twice
 An emergency squad failed to re- ViVe the stricken fighter. He had been down for a nine count in the fourth round, but the fighting had been on even terms and the referee, Sharkey Buanno, did not call the fight until the loser went down again for the last time.
 The dead boxer, who formerly lived in Pittsburgh, began his professional career there in 1945 and fought four bouts last year, winning three and losing one before shifting to Man chester.
 The surviving Bobby Burton's real name was Robert Mason, police said. A hearing on the manslaughter charge was set for next month in district court.
