You Be the
Quarterback
ANSWER

4. Flat pass. Dangerous. Espe-
cially since it was used very sue
cessfully few minutes before
3. Quick opener. Could hardly
expect to pick up four yards.
2. Fullback pitchout. Gould
produce first down more easily
than the quick opener.
l. Best call-the Sally Rand
A play of this type is always q
gamble, but you can afford tc
gamble here. The defense might
play the open side of the field
enabling your quarterback to gel
started down the near sideline.

Possible Shot at Title
Spurs Norkus, Powell
For NFight Tonight
BY the Assoeiofed Press

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. O.
Spurred by the announcement
that the winner will be consid-
cred a contender for a shot at
Rocky Marciano's title. Heavy
weights Charley Norkus of Port
Washington, N. Y, and Charlie
Powell. San Diego, battle it out
here tonight in scheduled 10
rounder.
It promises to be a brawl. The
pair are swingers with not much
in the way of ring science.
The fight will be nationally
televised from the Civic Auditor
ium. Ut will be shown in Wash
ington over station WTOP-TV,
Channel 9. at 10 p.mo
Al WE'LL, manager of Marciano,
announced here yesterday he
would consider the winner con-
tender for possible crack at the
crown next summer. Marciano
is here to referee one of the
preliminaries and will take a
good look at the main eventers.
Powell's TV Debut.
Powell, a 6-foot-3 fast puncher
will be making his TV debut after
scoring knockouts in his last 10
bouts. He's strictly on the green
side with only 33 rounds of
fighting behind him but he
throws leather swifter than any
heavy seen around here in years.
Norkus, 6-foot-1a-inch. will
give away height and weight but
it doesn't bother him. He's had
a lot more. experience and has
faced better opposition than
Powell. The Fastener is expected
to weigh between 190-93 and
Powell, 212.
IT like to fight big guys" he
said. They're easier to hit on
the Jaw. That's where I'll be
aiming" His manager, "Ghee"
Laico, says his 26-year-old pro-
tege is in tip-top shape.
Last month Norkus beat Cesar
Brion, big fellow from the Ar
gentine.
Last January at Miami Beach,
when he was given little chance
to win, he knocked out Danny
Nardico when the latter was be-
ing doomed for a title bout with
Marciano.
Powell Is Favorite.
Powell. former San Francisco
Forty Miners football player,
hasn't been tagged with hard
ones to the chin in his dozen
bouts. Experts want to see If he
can take it. Norkus is the hard;
est hitter he's met. This may be
the big test for the 22-year-old
san DlSgan.
Although it doesn't seem to
add up, fighter with IL matches
going up against one who has
been to the post 36 times with
superior opposition, Powell has
been established the favorite.
In fact, Jimmy Murray. CO.
promoting with the international
Boxing Club, announced that If
Powell wins he will be matched
with former Champion Ezzard
Charles for a televised contest
here next January.
