Brothers Needs More
Fights, He Finds, in
Win Over Weinberu

Heavyweight Elkins Brothers of
Washington is looking for work.
I'm rusty" he said. after beating
Big Bill Weinberg of Chelsea
Mass, in last nights 10-round
main bout at Uline Arena. II
didn't know how rusty until I got
out there"
Brothers rustiness wasn't evi-
dent to most of the crowd of 1908
as he moved in to- take command
of the fight from the start. But
Brothers and his manager, John
Carter, think they need more
work. "It's been six months since
we had fight. and he's just not
the kind of fighter who can lay off
that long and still be at his best"
said Carter. He'll just have to
work more often and I'm going to
book another fight as soon as pos
sible. Well fight any heavyweight
willing to fight"
Not only did the big Weinberg
outweigh Brothers, 2O8 pounds to
1876, but he stood a head taller
and had big advantage in reach.
But the District Negro moved in
under Weinberg's slow blows to
score repeatedly with a body
attack. His left hooks to the
body were hurting Weinberg as
early as the third round. Vein
berg put up a good argument in
the last three rounds to take the
play away from Brothers, but he
started too late and the District
battler well earned the unani-
nous decision.
The gross gate was $2,075 and
the net $1,448. ~a.a..-
Brothers stablemate, Light
Heavyweight Julian Keene, didn t
fare as well. He was outboxing
Chief Red Arrow of Oklahoma
City in the semifinal, but received
a cut eye that made Referee
Marty Gallagher stop the fight
and award the Chief technical
kayo in the second.
In the prelims, James Kimball
outpointed Ben Harrison in an
all-District heavyweight four
rounder, and Garland Edwards
won over Walter Roane in a mid
dleweight flve-rounder.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 21.-Pro
football club owners had another
fight on their hands today. this
one over distribution of prize play
ers of the 1949 college crop and
reserve lists of the 13 pro clubs.
They disposed Of one hot potato
yesterday, voting to allow the De-
troit Lions to keep draft rights to
Leon Hart of Notre Dame, the
player the Lions got as q bonus
pick last November. The reserve
player problem might not be set
tied as easily. Most owners and
all coaches hoped to get around
to the college draft by tonight, but
the outlook was not too bright.
Distribution of more than 90
players left over from the defunct
Buffalo Bills, Chicago Hornets and
Los Angeles Dons was postponed
until June 3 to avoid possible legal
entanglements. The three teams,
although ostensibly out of busi-
ness, still hold contracts to their
players with reserve clauses bind
ing the players to them through
next May.
Draft May Be Thrown Out.
The general belief today was
that draft choices made by the
13 survivors Of the pro league re-
vision would be thrown out and
that the names of all college eligi-
bles would be thrown into the
hopper for a fresh start. This
brought up the question of what
would happen to players drafted
last month and already signed
for 1850? The boys quit on that
note late last night and still were
chewing on it today.
High on the list of speculation
was the name of Lynn Chandnois,
fleet Michigan State halfback,
who was drafted by the Redskins
under the old National League set
up. and also by the Cleveland
Browns in the All-America Con-
ference. 1t was reported tonight
that both the Chicago Bears and
Baltimore Colts were interested
in him.
The Colts will have first pick
in the college draft, but the
Browns are reported to make an
all-out fight to keep Chandnois.
The Redskins would like to have
him, too, but it is possible that
George Marshall, Tribe president,
would be willing to make a deal
with the Browns for Chandnois,
