Lead in Packer Game
BY the Associcted Press

NEW YORK. Oct. 19.-The
Yanks ruled 13-point favorites to
whip Green Bay in their National
Football League clash at Yankee
Stadium tonight.
Red Strader's hard-hitting
Yanks squad. the high point
scoring team Of the league with
166, sought to break it's tie with
the Chicago Bears for the lead
in the National Conference. The
two teams have ideptical Al
records.
A triumph for the Packers
would move them up to a 500
percentage, they having lost three
of their five starts.
A personal duel was one Of the
highlights in the off1ng. Zollie
10th, the Yanks' young fullback
from LSU, entered this game as
the leagues leading ground gamer
with 318 yards. He sat out last
weeks game with the San Fran
cisco Forty Miners because of q
groin injury.
Only three yards behind 10th
in the ground gaining department
was the Packers speed sensation,
Billy Grimes, with 3l5 yards.

Jo-Jo White, Solons general

managerial toga. He received
$4,000 with Cleveland this year
and could have taken not more
than a Is per cent cut under
baseball law had he returned to
that club.

But Joe, who was signed by the
Yankees fresh out Of the Univer-
sity of Oregon, has expressed a de-
sire to play in the Coast League
before. Last spring he was per-
suaded to return to the majors
only after delaying his contract
because he wanted to remain on
the Coast.
Besides, Joe indicated, he has
ambitions to be a manager as well
as a player in the big time, and he
figures the way to get there is
from the Pacific Coast.
Joe had been seriously consid-
cred as the 1851 pilot for Seattle
and repeatedly a strong possibility
as the 1851 manager of the Pirates.
Two months ago the Pirates were
reported attempting to buy his
contract from Cleveland for
$35.000 with an eye to the mana

Indians Must Get Waivers.
Formal signing has not been
completed. Major league waivers
still must be obtained. Cleve-

Greenberg said he was working
to get the waivers so Joe could
take the job without h!ndrance.

Because boy injured his knee
some years ago, the Caps have on
their National Basketball League
club one Of the finest prospects
to emerge from collegiate ranks.
Bill Sharman, 6-foot-2, 190-
pound scoring star from the Uni
versity of Southern California,
was forced to switch from foot
ball to basketball while a fresh
man in high school.
II was going to Narbonne High
in Los Angeles" Sharman recalls.
"We were allowed to play only
one major sport there and I went
out for football. But in the sec
ond practice game I hurt my left
knee and had to give up football
that season. So, I went out for
basketball"
Sharman discovered he had a
knack for the game. He led the
team in scoring and was the chief
reason Narbonne won the city
championship that year.
Sets Coast Loop Record.
Sharman transferred to Porter
vile High School and in his senior
year averaged % points per game.
But he did not enter use on an
athletic scholarship.
Il had a few Offers" he says,
but I went into the service. I
was in the Navy a little over a
year. but that was long enough to
be forgotten. I enrolled under
the CT bill"
Bill, a freshman. in 1916, made
the varsity cage squad at use.
In his sophomore year. he sank all
20 of his free throws in Pacific
Coast Conference play. Later he
scored 238 points in II conference
games, breaking the mark of 232
held for 13 years by the famed
Hank Luisetti.
Sharman, only %, is the father

Erdelatz has figured out the diff
ference between college and pro-
fessional football.
With the pros, if you decide
you need good tackle you Just
go out and buy one," said Erdelatz,
who used to be an assistant coach
for the San Francisco Forty
Miners. Obviously, Eddie implied,
he can't do that with a college
team.
So, he said. he had discovered
the hard way-that he's got to
make changes to suit the Navy
personnel"
Erdelatz said the losses to Mary
land, Northwestern and Princeton
showed him things we couldn't
ind out among ourselves" He
had ruled out any preseason
practice games with other colleges
and most Navy sessions were held
in great secrecy.
The first changes will be made
for Saturdays tussle in Baltimore
with Southern California. Among
other things, he'll revise the pass
patterns.
So far. the passing of Quarter
back Bob Zastrow which earned
him third All-America last season
hasn't been nearly as effective.
One reason, Erdelatz reveals, is
that he hurt his arm in the first
game with Maryland and it wasn't
back to par until last week with
Princeton.
"Our defense will be in ac-
cordance with our injuries" Erde-
latz says. Debating revision are
injuries to such linemen as Ends
Bob Mcdonald and Capt. Tom
Bake, Center Ted Kukowski and
Guards Bill Steele and Bob Lowell.

Fullback Dave Bannerman are

On comparative scores, which
mean next to nothing in football,
Western has the edge, having
beaten Wilson, 1870, while the best
Tech could do with Wilson was
a TT tie. The Raiders have been
playing fine ball all season and
If the team was in good shape
1t would have to be given the
nod over the up-and-down Tech
outfit.
However, it's an injury-riddled
team that will take on the Train
ers tomorrow and Coach Fred
Mulvey will have to qualify as
half magician-half physician if
he manages to put full-strength
eleven on the field.
Of his starting backfield. all are
nursing injuries, although Dale
Larsen, star breakaway halfback.
is expected to be in fairly good
shape by game time. Most serious
blow is the banged knee Paul
Weinstein got in the Chamberlain
game. The ace quarterback has
been a big reason why Western
has done so well this season, and
he is not expected to see any
action at all.
Mulvey said at the beginning of
the season that if injuries didn't
hit the team, it would do all right.
So far Western has lodged the
jinx but Mulvey is wondering
why his luck couldn't have held
out just one more week.
Another team facing tough
hurdle this week is undefeated
Mount Vernon. Harry Lees tough
little team steps up among the big
boys when it takes on George
Washington tomorrow night at
the G.. w. stadium. One thing
should prove true-the Mounts
won't give up.
They've won five games this
season without a loss-the longest
winning streak in the area-but
they had close squeeze last week.
With six minutes to go, Mount
Vernon was trailing Lane High in
Charlottesville. 1877. Then the
Mounts began to move.
They marched 50 yards to score
with Az minutes to 60 and four
plays later they were driving
again. This time it was 60 yards
and when Art Kuhn ran 35 yards
for the winning touchdown there
were only Is seconds left to play.
CIV will have to beat Mount
Vermont won't quit.
Eastern has some fine backs,
Ralph Sta, Danny O'Neill and
Jimmy Sullivan. but the real Sue
cess in the Ramblers' record of
four wins and tie can be found
in the center of the line.
Spencer Lamperis at center and
Don Gall and Phil Mulrenin at the
guards are the big reason that
Eastern has given up only one
touchdown on the ground in five
games.
Mulrenin and Lamperis are line
hackers on defense and two of
the hardest tacklers in the league.
Gall plays in the center of the
flve-man defensive line-a key
spot-and he's tough to move.
Good high school line hackers
and center linemen are tough to
find and Coach Dick Mentzer is
lucky enough to have three of
the best.
N. A. DanoWsky, Western prin-
cipal. has an unusual interest in
sports for high school principal.
For years. many of them very
lean. he has been at every foot
ball game and regular at other
sports. The coaches and play
