Bucceroni Favored
In TV Fight Tonight
By the Associated Press

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 18.-Dan
Bucceroni of Philadelphia faces
aging Freddie Beshore of Los
Angeles tonight in a 10-round
heavyweight fight for the enter
tainment of a national television
audience and as many local fans
as can be lured into Olympic
Auditorium.
(The bout will be seen in
in Washington over WTOP-
TV, Channel 9, beginning at
10 p.m.)
Bucceroni, 26. and at 6-foot-3,
much taller than the 31-year-
CID Beshore. is the decided IA
vorite. Youth and a harder
punch are in his favor.
But whether the Philadel-
phian, who hopes to land a title
fight with Champion Rocky
Marciano next year, can put
Freddie on the deck remains to
be seen.
Bucceroni, appearing in Los
Angeles for the first time. is
having a good year. He has
beaten Tommy Harrison and
Jimmy Slade and his total rec
ord of At bouts shows 81 VIC
tories by knockouts and only
three losses.

Earn Lust-Minute
Win Over Western
By Bob Hanson

Eastern, safely over one hurdle
with its last-minute, 60 victory
over Western yesterday, will at
tempt to wrap up the Eastern
Division title of the Interhigh
League when it plays Anacostia
at 2:30 pm. today at Eastern's
Stadium.
The winner will play Roose-
velt. Western Division titlist,
Friday night at Griffith Stadium
for the league championship.
For Eastern, today's game will
be the third in six days, while
Anacostia has been idle since last
Friday. The Indians rested yes
terday while Eastern and West
ern battled it out in the first
round of the division playof and
as a result should be in top con-
dition. In a previous meeting
between the two teams, Anacos-
tia came from behind to snatch
1914 victory. Eastern. West
ern and Anacostia all finished
the league schedule with 80
records.
The Ramblers are a bit bat
tered and bruised, but if they
put up the determined battle
they displayed in yesterdays
hard-fought contest the Indians
may get scalped. Carmel Hys-
lette and Gay Clark, reserve half
backs, suffered leg injuries and
neither is expected to play to-
day. Hyslette was taken to
Georgetown Hospital for X-rayS
of a possible bone chip in his
right leg. Clark was less seri-
ously hurt.
Clutch Players Matched.
Today's, game will match two
clutch players who had promi-
nent roles in snarling the divi-
sion race.
Charley Secrist, 6-foot-1 Ana
costa end, has shown several
times this season that he can
rise to the occasion with dra-
matte plays. His most memor-
able one came a few weeks ago
when the Indians rallied to beat
Eastern. In that game, Charlie,
playing as an offensive end for
the first time, snagged pass for
a 53-yard gain to set up one
score and added another touch
down on a 35-yard aerial with
less than 2 minutes to play.
Eastern's IMAM of the hour"
is Quarterback Ed Mulligan, g.
foot-3, 180-pounder. who is an
outfielder on the schools cham
pionship baseball team.
Twice in five days Mulligan
has turned the tide against
Western. Last Friday, with the
score tied at 6-6 and only few
minutes left, he sliced off tackle
for the touchdown that beat
Western. Yesterday his perform
ance was even more dramatic.

studied from the standpoint of

Young says that the preventive
measure for bloat used most often
is feeding hay before pasturing.
However, this will not prevent
bloat in all cases. Sudan grass hay
has been found to be most effective
when fed during the IL hours be-
fore turning cattle on pasture.
Generally, feeding II to 18 pounds
of good quality hay during these II
hours will help reduce incidence of
bloat. Regular feeding of silage be-

help.
