Dade
Challenging Ortiz
For Bantam Title :.
BY the Agsoeiufsd Press

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. g.
Manuel Ortiz, busy little lettuce
farmer from El Centre, Calf, will
defend his world bantamweight box
ing title for the 18th time here to-
night this time against hustling
young Harold Dade Of Chicagoa 70
Dade, who never has fought there,
has lost but one MATCH IN z22 pro-
fessional bouts, and before he en-
tered the service was sensation in
amateur circles around Chicago.
Because Of Dade's record and
Ortiz's popularity with the fans
here, promoters have hopes that the
15-round bout, despite the $6 bar
gain tops, will gross more than
SIS 600.
The bout will be the third Ortiz
defense of his crown in San Fran
cisco within the last IL months. He
knocked out Louis Castillo, a run
ming mate of Dade's in 13 rounds
last February and four months
later did the same for Jackie Zurich
in II rounds.
Despite Dade's record of wins,
little advance information has been
available on which to compare him
with Ortiz, who has taken them as
they came since 1912 when he beat
Lou Salica for the crown. Dade's
most impressive win Is against joey
Dolan of Portland, q better than
fair featherweight.

NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-Interna-
tional competition in the indoor
track season has been assured by
the arrival of Rune Gustafsson, a
miller, and Haakon Lidman, a hur-
dler, from Swden.
The Swedish pair is scheduled to
compete in several meets between
January "a, when it will debut at
Philadelphia, and the close of the
campaign in March.
Gustafsson, 81, told reporters he
never had run indoors, but expects
to work himself into condition on
the board track at New York Uni
verSity.
Although he is Slated to run the
300-meter in the Olympics next year,
Gustafsson will concentrate on the
mile, for which his best time is a
fine 4:04.6. He will run one half
mile at Boston January Is.
Lidman, who toured the United
States with Gunder Haegg, said he
had been entered In 60 and 70 yard
hurdle races, but prefers longer dis
tances.
"I"m not so good at short dis
tances," he said. I'm a better hur-

by getting a good look at the Miami

"Regan's no dumbbell. What do
you think he'll do when my boys

Miami will be tough, but we hope to
be just as good and maybe little
better"

For $50 Cash Prizes
Starting Tonight
By Rod Thomos

i With a record number of 5000
men and women expected to enter,
firing will start tonight in the 18th
Evening Star bowling tournament,
annually the largest event Of its
kind in the country.
More than 80 maple plants will
I be involved In the tournament
which will run full month. It is
restricted to league bowlers and
only league scores will be counted.
A minimum of $50 cash pfizes will

prize for wemen. From these the
spoils will range gradually down to
| a few dollars. The prizes win be

| ticipation-$1-is the smallest Of any
major event. Due to the use OF
league scores, there is no cost for
games other than the usual league
fees.
ALI on Equal Footing.
At least theoretically all partici-
pants will be on an equal footing,
no matter what their degrees Of
skill, because of full handicaps.#
These will be based on, a scratch
of 1913 for men and 118 for women
and computed from current aver
ages. To be eligible for handicap,
however, a bowler must have rolled
at least Is games in the league from
which he enters. In this, as in 9TH
er details, the tournament will fol-
low the rules Of the Washington
City and Washington Womer's
Duckpin Associations, as well as
those of the National Duckpin
Bowling Congress.
Executive Secretary Aryille L. Eb-
ersole of the congress will be the
tournament referee and treasurer
Headquarters for the event has been
established at the Offices of the con-
gress in the Evans Building (phone
National 7280).
Entry Fee Must Be Paid.
A bowler may participate as many
times as he rolls a league set. His
handicap In each instance will be
derived from his average in the
league from which he is entered.
1t is mandatory that the entry fee
be paid before the contestant shoots.
The fee should be turned in to any
league official or bowling plant at
tendant.
Main business before the monthly
meeting of the Bowling Operators
Association today at the Mayhower
Hotel was to be the tournament.
Incidentally the association was
born at meeting called to make
arrangements for the first Evening |
Star event.

n Grid Deaths in rs
Disclosed in Survey;
Safeguards Sought
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Jan. g. Football was
held directly responsible for 81 ia
talities, two of which occurred In
college ranks, during the last cam
paign, according to the 18th annual
survey presented today by DR.. Floyd
r. Eastwood Of Purdue University
before the American Football
Coaches Association and the Foot
ball Rules Committee Of the N. G.
A. A.
Or. Eastwood's recommendation
for further safeguarding players by
appointing q committee to study
the design OF headgears coincideG
with one of the five rule changes
asked yesterday by the coaches
themselves.
The coaches had recommended
that wearing apparel Of players
should be softened wherever pos
sible. pointing out that many In
juries had resulted from hard elbow
pads. forearm pads and knee braces.
Wider Playing Zone.
Subject to approval by the N. C.
A. A. Rules Committee and the Ma
tional Rules Committee which meets
at Kerrville, Tex, later this month,
the 1947 code would provide that
the ball be declared dead on o
blocked try for extra point.
Widening the playing zone after
an out-of-bounds play by moving
the ball 20 yards from the sidelines
instead of the present is yards and
extension Of the free substitution
rule to permit two subs to enter the
game at one time with the clock
still running were other recon-
mendations.
Clarification of the ruling on .
shift that tends to draw the de-
fense offside" was asked in the COM
mittee report drafted from ques-
tionnaires filled out by list mem-
bers.
The football coaches meeting was
the only action as the N. G. A. A.
and its auxiliaries opened their an
nual convention, but today the dele
gates will get down to the serious
discussion of eligibility and the pay
ment of financial assistance to foot
ball players. Gambling and ticket
speculation will be considered to-
morrow.
Better Headgear Desired.
In making his fatality report to
the convention, DIR. Eastwood point
ed out that increased participation
during 1916 might have accounted
for the increase in the number OF
deaths, most since 1886. In addition
to the 81 direct fatalities, there
were four deaths for which football
was held indirectly responsible.
DR.. Eastwood observed that more
than 40 per cent Of football fatali-
ties have resulted from head in
juries and expressed the hope that
careful research would make 1t pos
|sible to recommend headgear that
would reduce the deaths caused by
skull fractures and cerebral hem
|orrhages.
Serving with DR.. Eastwood, who
was chairman, were committee n1em-
bers DR.. George Hauser of Minne-
sofa, DR.. Eddie Anderson, Of Iowa,
