McWiIIioms, Cadet, Quits

West Point, N. Y, Sept. A. Thomas (Shorty) McWilliams' let ter of resignation from the cadet corps of the United States Military Academy was in the hands of Maj. Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor, academy superintendent yesterday.
 McWilliams, former star at Mississippi State, was dropped from the cadet squad Monday after tell ing Earl Blaik, coach, that he intended to resign.
 McWilliams' letter reached the desk of the commandant, Briga- dier General Gerald Higgins, yes- terday and was quickly routed to General Taylor. Both generals must attach their recommendation be- fore the resignation can be sent on to the War Department in Washington for final action, which may be delayed as much as three weeks.
 Meanwhile, McWilliams must at- tend classes until the resignation is accepted and as cadet he is forbidden to talk for publication.

Greeks Plan
 Big Turnout ForKronis

If all the restaurants in town are closed Friday night blame it on the local debut of Steve Kronis, Greek battler whose real name is Straits Policronis. He will headline the Wa terbury A. c. boxing card at the Municipal Stadium and will swap punches with Jose Apontes Torres, tough Puerto Rican who gave Dem his Patrick Brady quite a contest before dropping the nod to the Irishman in the same ring last July.
 Kronis has an admirable ring rec ord during the past five years and sports "A knockouts, almost the same number claimed by Brady. He dropped two decisions to Brady in two fast bouts in which the Irish man was unable to knock the Greek of his pins. Just previous to his first slugfest with Brady, KroniS won four straight fights in West Palm Beach, Fla, and since the second Brady scramble decisioned Lou Alter in Montreal and twice held Florient Desmaris, New England lightweight champion, to draws.
 Torres Good Boy
 Torres, too, gave Brady plenty of trouble and the dark skinned lad is more than anxious for return shot, so will be out gunning for Kronis to prove 8 return match is justi- fable.
 The card was completed today with the matching of Earl Roys of Bristol, New England bantamweight champion, and Jerry Lavigne, of Montreal. Roys knocked out Don "Sparky" Duquette in five rounds at Bristol last month.

 The initial task of Coach Howie Odell, starting his fifth, term at Yale and his first under new and unprecedented f1ve-year agree ment, will be to determine whether war service has taken its toll of the all but IS youths who have been discharged since the 1945 sea- son.
 Hike all other universities and colleges" Odell warned i've have an accumulation of former letter winners, the majority of whom have not played football for some time. Our first job is one of con- ditioning before we can even at tempt to set our personnel"
 The Yale preseason outlook IS for considerable strength in the guard and tackle departments, a fair crop of center candidates, and the ends an uncertainty. With vandy Kirk and Art Fitzgerald heading the pack of backfield hold overs, and augmented by other rear echolon operators of proved ability, the backfield should be 8 stronger unit than at any time since Odell took over the coaching job in 1922.
 Captain of the squad is Dick Hol- hngshead, 207-pound veteran of two seasons of play, while other tackles available include such mas sive manhood as Fritz Barzilaus- kas 218-pounds, of Waterbury; John Prchlik, 220-pound CleVe- lander; 200 pound Nick Fusilli; all former regulars; while in the guard department are former first team men Westi Hansen, 215; Bolt El- well, POT; Bill Schuler. 203, and Cotty Daviyson, 190.
