CIV. Likely lJnderdoq
Against W&M Friday
In First Home Game
BY George Huber

George Washington this week
starts its home football sched-
ule of three straight Friday
night games at Griffith Stadium,
bringing in William Srd Mary
for the first game with Rich
mond and Virginia Tech to fol-
low.
Comparative records likely will
install the visiting Indians as
favorites- they've won two and
lost two while CIV has a Ia
figure-but the Colonials hope
that the new turn for the better
in their football fortunes will
take them safely past a team
they should have beaten last
year. but didn't.
There's a new air of conf
dence around the CIV practice
field now that the Colonials
have found they can win. They
broke their four-game losing
string last week by hanging on
for a 1927 decision over Penn,
showing more scoring punch than
in all other 1854 games COM
bined.
Hope for Crowd Increase.
Last year. the GWs dropped
a 1877 decision to the Indians
at Williamsburg that still is
hard to digest. William and Mary
got away from in front of its
own goal posts only twice all
afternoon and made good with
both drives, while CIV spent
most of the game pounding on
the door without getting in. The
Colonials had a 21-9 edge in
first downs and something SIM
liar in other statistics. yet had
to use an intercepted pass as
the springboard for their only
score.
CIV was so deep in W&M ter
ritory most of the time that only
three times did it have to punt
Yet the scoreboard said 1877 fol
W&M at the end, and there still
are some players on the CIV
team who don't believe it.
The Colonials hope to have
a bigger crowd than usual Fri.
day night, and have put in 9
number of gimmicks to attract
customers. There even is some
talk of as many as 10000 com.

be a 10000 football game.

this game and the next two.
More than 500 tickets also are
being distributed for servicemen
and some Boy Scouts also art
getting ducats. The whole ides
is that CIV officials hope the
folks getting in to this game vii
like CIV football enough to pay
their way to future contests.

Minis 2-to-1 Favorite
Over Lee Tonight in
Turner'S HeadIiner
star stan Photo.

Holly Minis is a 2-to-1 favorite
over Bobby Lee of Baltimore in
tonight's 10-round middleweight
fight that heads the Turner's
Arena boxing program.
Promoter Vince Mcmahon,
putting on his second show in
as many weeks in an effort to
establish boxing on regular
basis in Washington. expects a
crowd of well over 1000 to see
Washington's leading middle
weight contender in action.
Minis, a hometown favorite
since he started boxing in 1948,
is a workmanlike fighter who
keeps the pressure on his op-
ponents all the way. He's not
a flashy type with waste motion
and fancy footwork to impress
the judges; instead, he just
moves in and starts hitting.
In fights here this year, Minis

five rounds and worked to a draw
with Bobby Dykes. The latter
was regarded by most of the
customers as a very bad decision.
Lees record indicates he
should give Minis, an argument,
and, of course, there has been
the usual talk from Baltimore
about how he's going to beat
Minis. Lee lasted 10 rounds
against both Sugar Ray Robin
son and Kid Gavilan, and he has
defeated Gene Burton and Terry
Moore, two men who two years
ago took split decisions over
Minis.
The supporting card will have
two of last weeks winners back
for more action, Featherweight
Harold Smith and Heavyweight
Chuck Saucer.

long since President Harding hit
the first ball there-Rock Creek
finally has an official course rec
ord. the one-under-par 65 shot
by Baltimore's Andy Gibson yes
terday in a Mid-Atlantic PGA
Prc-Amateur.
The pros never had played the
hilly uptown public course in
competition and, although Claude
Rippy once shot a So and there
have been sub-30 scores on the
mines, nobody has broken 20 un-
der competitive conditions in the
amateur events.
And Rock Greek had some sell
dom-used tees in play for the
pro-am that stretched the
course to about $500 yards. It
has a par of Sc, recently reduced
from 81.
Gibson was the only par
breaker as he won his third pro
sweeps of the season. He is far
behind last years record. but has
had 66s at Hagerstown and
Washington G&1CC. and current
ly is a finalist in the Baltimore
Match Play Open. The title
match with Charley BaSsler will
be played tomorrow.
Gibson scored a 1-2-3 sweep
in the pro-am for the first time
that had been done since Bassler

Joe went on to point to other
seasons in the National Football
League when the teams now on
top weren't doing so well. In
1948. for example, the now all
conquering Detroit Lions won
two games and lost 10. In 1912
the Lions didn't win a game and
the Eagles, now riding high, wide
and handsome, won two.
They all have their ups and
downs, Joe noted, and the Red
skins just happen to be down.

The trouble is, however, that
the Redskins have been dowr

have won only 90 games in the

Grated by John Blick, and never
again rolled enough games in
official competition to qualify for
"a ranking. One season, however,
his average was higher than that
of the man who received the top
rating, and Whalen was made
honorary No. l..
In 1929, he tied with Howard
Campbell of Washington for the
singles title in the national
championships, losing in a roll

that if Whalen chose, he could,
in short order, regain his place

Whalen came to mind recently
in a discussion of bowling form.
The venerable John P. Evans,
who has watched every duckpin
shooter of note since the game
was introduced a half century
ago, was renarking on the cum
bersome deliveries of some of the
current crop of high-average
duckpinners.
"You wonder" Evans said,
"how much better some of these
fellows might be if they did
things on a bowling alley as
simply as Jack Whalen."
Yesterday, we asked Whalen
about it.
II haven't seen many of the
present good Ones" he said, "but
what Evans says of them was
true of a few of the best in my
time, too"

remained in a slump for long

piled:

say he's slipping. but that's not
SO. He's a great fighter. I'm

He likes to set his own pace.
Let him fight his way and he
can beat anybody. But I'm going
to keep after him every second
of the way.

What you put into anything
Is what you get out" Saxton
went on. IF a kid takes money
out of his piggy bank-well,
then there's less in there. I've
put everything into those four
months and I feel good and
ready. Some people think that
because I'm going Is rounds for
the first time that I'll be handi-
capped. That's not so. I think
I'll be better off with Is rounds" Z"
Saxton finished his training
yesterday with some light exer-
cises. After it was over he
stepped on the scales and
weighed a shade under the lat
pounds he must make at noon
tomorrow.
Gavilan said he weighed 148
after he completed his training
in his camp near Summit, NJ.
Gavilan Promises Surprise.
The 28-year-old champion not
only was confident of victory but
said. I'm going to surprise the
whole world" =
That could only mean that he
expected to knock out the cocky
challenger, who never has been
stopped before. Saxton, as
matter of fact, has been f1oored
only twice-by Virgil Atkins and
Bud Smith-in II fights. He beat
Atkins and drew with Smith. His
only losses were by split decisions
to Gil Turner and Del Flanagan
in the home towns of the two
victors.
Maybe he give me trouble for
five rounds" Gavilan said of
Saxton. II fight all style fighters.
I know what I'd do. But want
to know what he can do. After
five rounds I find out. Then it
will be like Johnny Bratton at
Chicago (Gavilan drubbed Brat
