To Beat Fiore Again

NEW YORK, Sept. l0.-Car-
men Basilio is q Stool favorite
to beat Carmine Fiore for the
second time tonight in Madison
Square Garden and keep alive
his chances for a welterweight
title shot.
,tThe 10-round bout will be

Basilio, No. welter contender
from Canastota. N. Y. has been
virtually promised a shot at
the winner of the October title
fight between Champion Kid
Gayilan and Johnny Saxton.
The 27-year-old contender
fioored Gayilan while losing a
split decision to the champion
in Syracuse a year ago. That's
the only defeat suffered by Ba-
silio in his last 16 bouts.
Among the victories in that
string was a ninth-round tech
meal knockout over Fiore in
Syracuse II months ago. Fiore,
a 25-year-old from Brooklyn,
put up q good battle while II
lasted.
Fiore, who packs q lot Of dy-
Mantle in his left hook, won
eight in a row after that loss,
He had the string snapped by
Ramon Fuentes, No. 8 welter-
weight contender, in Los Angeles

from Coach Tom johnson is
that 1t will be a trough" one.
The drill at 2 pm. viii be open

Seventeen lettermen are among

fact, the lineups for tomorrow's
scrimmage list only two starters
from last year on what could
be considered the first team.
They are Van Whitfield at cen
ter and Clyde Howard at guard.
Both are Dunbar products.
Two former linesmen con-
verted to backs are listed with
the first eleven, Jim Boddie. q
200-pound former tackle, and
Hillary Thompson. 205-pound
former end. The first hackfield
includes one freshman, George

was the only time we were
in the championship" Stewart
says. rejecting on his IL past
seasons at the helm of Anacostia
football. The Indians, after los
ing the first three games. pulled
away to q 4-4.l record in 1853,
which included their l4-0 loss to
Roosevelt in the title game.
What Stewart means by "bet-
ter OF" this time is the condition
of his material. I'VE have more
kids who seem like they can
handle themselves and who look
like ball players. They have big
ger legs and more coordination,
but of course they're q little
green" Stewart says.
For q while. anyway, the
greenness should show every
where except in the perform
ances of Charles Juliano, Dan
Droze and Don Goings. Juliano
is the only first-string lineman
back from the 1853 club. He's
a slim 160-pounder and q good
defensive guard. Droze, q little
heavier now at 100. was selected
to The Stars ALL High team for
his speed and broken-field run
ming out of tailback. Goings,
165- pound wingback, is track
man. a very good blocker and an
alert defensive player. Both
Droze and Goings ought to have
good years." Stewart confides.
Billy Richardson, assistant to
Stewart for the third year, has
the task for finding a replace
ment for Jim Gamer, a line
crashing fullback now at Mary
land University. The most likely
candidate is Wayne Thomerson,
a 6-foot-2. 185-pound punter and
basketball player who played
behind Gamer last year.
Other second-stringers ex-
pected to move up are Tackles
Byron Minard and Danny Hum
minick, Guard Norman Garri-
son, Center Jack Staub and Ends
Eddie Vincent and Charlie
Secrist. Stewart says that Min
ard has been digging graves all
summer and hasn't any fat
among his 200 pounds. Secrist
was the surprise hero of the
Eastern game last year when he
came off the bench and caught
two passes for the tying and
winning touchdowns.
Ronnie Droze is a solid little
145-pounder who hopes to fol-
low his older brother at tail
back. Bill Smith is tall and has
good hands to make another
end. Tommy Cook, senior block
ing back, also is a newcomer.
Stewart has about IS boys in
suits and pads at present. Its
too many to work with unless I

Stewart, "but I think I'll just

CENTREVILLE. Md, Sept. 10.
"A pair Of New Jersey shippers
led the way today as the 18th
annual international comet sail
ing championship went into the
third race under a stepped-up
program.
Howard Lippincott of Riyerton
and Larry Low of Raritan. N. j.,
tied for the lead after each took
a first and a third in yesterdays
two races on the Chester River.
Regatta officials, afraid the
fivs-race series might be upset
by foul weather, decided to hold
two events yesterday instead Of
the scheduled one. They hoped
to wind up with two races today
and a single race Saturday in
stead of stretching the races
through Sunday.
The program changes were
made as result of reports that
hurricane Edna, newest in the
series of storm systems sweeping
along the Atlantic Coast, made
weather uncertain from North

Third in the point standings

three weeks each, would not alter
his plans. The injured players
are Wayne Ballard and Ernie

knee.
The Generals are expected to
start with Tom Bransford and

Hilbert Hayslett and Joe Shaef-
fer. ends; Chester Webb and
Larry Boyer, tackles; Bob Hall

Dennis King, center. Hall,
Birch and Rust are making

opponents an edge in weight
while Pulliam cited his lack of
reserve strength.
The game will be broadcast

We frequently hear such ques-
tons as ''How old must a rockfish
be to weigh six pounds?" and
How much should a 24-inch
rockfish weigh?" Several years
ago, DR.. E. c. Raney of Cornell
University who is an authority
on the stripers, worked out the
following tables showing the
relationships among weights,
lengths and ages Of the rock. DR..
Raney cautions that these figures
will not be entirely accurate, es-
pecially as the size of the fish
increases with the years. They
are, however. an excellent guide
and we thought you'd like to
have them for your notebook,

fore the big rock are hitting

in familiar waters. In addition.
he has hung up an outstanding
record this year, including win
ming the Potomac River title,
the class territorials which en-
braced all of the Chesapeake,
and numerous regattas this
summer.
He and his wife are old hands
at class internationals, and
when the going is light. as it

FORE AND AFT
By Malcolm Lomborne. il.

Despite the high casualty rate
among the Gold Cup boats at
Detroit's Silver Cup classic
Labor Day. there should be q
very good turnout Of the big un-
limiteds for the Presidents Cup
race next week end.
Owners, drivers and mechanics
have nearly two weeks In which
to make repairs and start on
the road for Washington. Gen.
erai Chairman Horace Walker
is counting on some of the boats
arriving here by next Thurs
day.
Horace Dodge's surprise VIC
tory at Detroit recalls that this
was his first major win since
taking home the Presidents Cup
in 1949. That was the year Bill
Cantrell drove his My Sweetie
to q single heat win. amid some
talk that the cup shouldn't have
been awarded for just one heat.
It blew great guns that week
end and when the wind failed to
| let up for Sundays two heats, a
pom Of the drivers showed they
were against risking boats and
bones. Accordingly the trophy
was presented to Dodge and
Cantrell on the basis of Satur-
days single heat which was
clearly won by the great Can
trell.
Dodge has been in this Gold
Cup business for at least 81
years. Back in 1927 his Miss
Syndicate, driven by d. D. Baker
at an average speed OF 51.62
m.p.h., won the Presidents Cup
in the second annual regatta.
Scarcely a year has gone by since
that Dodge hasn't shown up
with at least one boat.

From time to time we've

fish being caught and the record
tossed away because the angler
did not realize what a prize he

an angler could know his fish

he had no scales handy.
There is a method by which
one can determine the approx
mate weight of a fish if he has a
tape measure or some means of
obtaining its girth and length.
The formula is simple. Square

EVANSTON, ILL.,, Oct. 30
Spunky Northwestern's pass de-

ters, suddenly collapsed in the
fourth period today, and Dave
Leggett lofted a 24-yard touch
down pitch to Bob Watkins to
give No. Thanked Ohio State a
hard-pressed 14-7 victory.
Ohio State thus took the un-
disputed Big Ten lead.
The Wildcats, playing before
41,650 homecoming patrons,
threw a scare into Ohio State,
which had been favored by IA
points, by holding the Associ-
ated Press top-rated team to
a TT standstill until the decisive
Leggett pass.
The toss Kept the Buckeyes
unbeaten in six games this sea-
son and pinned a five-game los
ing streak on Northwestern. The
Wildcats have beaten Ohio State
only once in 10 years and have
failed to win a Big Ten game
since 1852.
The Ohio State victory, how
ever, was a rather hollow one as
the Buckeyes did not look like
potential national champions to-
day. A Northwestern sophomore
quarterback from Rock Island,
ILL.,. Jack Ellis. stole individual
honors in his first collegiate
appearance.
