Southwest Football Attendance
Shows Bio Gain Over Last Year

The Texas-Texas A. and M. game
always is a sellout. This year it's
at Austin where $4,000 may be
accommodated.
The average per game this year
has been 1868. Last year it was
27,304.
SMU Draws 130,847.
Southern Methodist has drawn
the most fans-130,847 for two
games compared to 114,359 for a
like number last season. Rice has
pulled in 10000 for two games.
Last year two games drew 1887
Arkansas has registered $4,000
this year for three games COM
pared to 1900 for two games last
season.
Texas is $4,000 behind because
it has played only one home game
whereas two had been played last
year. Baylor has drawn $4,000
for one game this season. 1t got
22,800 for two in 1949.
Meanwhile. the s400, 900 receipts
from the gigantic football double
header Saturday between the Uni
verSities of Oklahoma and Texas
and Southern Methodist and Okla
homa A. and M. will be divided
among the four schools.
Oklahoma and Texas each will
receive $90,58893 from a gross OF
$4,000, ,446.26, State Fair of Texas

Unofficial estimates place the
split for each school in the SMU-

Scouts Warn Hoyas
OF Boston Colleges
Promising Sophs

There is lot of similarity be-
tween Georgetown and Boston
College, according to Jack Prem
dergast and Joe Sullivan. the Hoya
assistant coaches, who have been
scouting the team Georgetown
meets Friday night in Boston.
BC. like Georgetown, has lost
three straight games to tough
outfits. and it, too, is mostly a
sophomore outfit. "It's the kind
of team that's had rough going,
but is looking better every game
and can catch fire at any time" :"
said Prendergast. 1T lost to
Fordham last week, and you know
how tough Fordham is, but ex-
cept for one period when Ford
ham scored three touchdowns, it
was better team"
Petela Consistent Scorer.
Prendergast is worried that
Ed Petela, the Eagles full
back who has missed the last
two games, will be ready to run
against the Hoyas. He's a 1885,
pound senior who is a consistent
scorer.
Backfield threats in addition to
Petela are Johnny McCauley and
Frank Tanner. Both have size in
addition to speed. Tanner, 190-
FOUNDER, is regarded as one of the
fastest backs in New England.
Both are sophomores and appear
ready to play big time football.
Another soph standout with the
Eagles is End George Pollinger,
a 6-foot, 190-pounder. He's rated
as a top-notch pass receiver and
although this is only his first year
he's been playing 60 minutes a
game.
Hoyas Take Things Easy.
"The whole team is big and
ready to go places and before long
they're going to hurt somebody.
I just hope it isn't u.s." is the way
Prendergast sums it up.
The Hoyas after Saturdays loss
to Maryland took things fairly
easy at the Hilltop yesterday.
Sophomores were excused from
the drill so they could take a rest,
but except for Halfback Art Gulla
they are in fair physical shape.
Gulla received a back injury early
in last Saturdays game and prob
ably will be missing for a month.

Charles Faces Barone
Nov. 28 in First Fight
AS 14-Karaf Champ
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK. Oct. 17.-Ezzard
Charles will fight as a 14-karat
champion for the first time in his
career when he defends his
heavyweight title against Nick
Barone in a 15-round bout at
Cincinnati November %.
Jake Mintz, Charles manager
made the announcement yester-
day.
Charles won the NBA title in
June. 1949, when he defeated
Jersey Joe Walcott. He was rec
ognized in all States but New
York and there we're some who re-
fused to recognize him at all. Not
while Joe Louis was around, they
said.
But Charles whipped the Brown
Bomber and earned National rec
ognition. So from now on he will
pick up the champions share OF
the purse, which will be 4212 per
cent this time.
BarOne, a native OF syracuse,
N. Y. will get 17l2 per cent. plus
an unexpected crack at the big
geSt prize of all.
| Ranked sixth among the light
heavyweights, he is crowd
pleasing fighter with a stiff right
punch, but short on experience.
The receipts, Promoter Sam
Becker predicted, should hit $780,
600. Prices for the 15,000-capacity
Cincinnati Garden will be scaled
from $3.50 to Sis.
The fight. believed to be the
first heavyweight title bout in Gin
cinnati history, will mark Charles
first appearance before the home
folks since he defeated Walcott

Meanwhile the Germans tied up their de-

All this holds solemn warning for America
