You Be the
Quarterback
ANSWER

4. Forward-lateral pass. No!
Failure on this involved play
would only tend to demoralize
your team further. Chances for
success on this one not good.
3. Fullback plunge. Not a bad
play but other calls can bring
more yardage.
2. Reverse. Usually a depend
able play on any good single
wing.
/. Tailback of tackle. Best call
You have a fine single wing at
tack. This is your bread-and-
butter play. Nothing except a
quick score will raise morale as
quickly as having your pet plays
go.

Knockout OF johnson
Projects Smith Into
175-Pound Spotlight
BY the Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA. Oct. g.
Boardwalk Billy Smith bombed
his way into the forefront of
the light-heavyweight ranks here
last night with one solid punch.
The 33-year-old transplanted
Californian-he now makes his
home in Atlantic City, N. j.
knocked out Harold johnson in
1:22 of the second round. It
took Champion Archie Moore IA
rounds to accomplish the same
feat last August.
Smith. 17312, caught the No.
! light-heavyweight title con-
tender with a right hand on
the side of his face that pitched
26-year-old Harold to the deck
as if he'd been pole-axed. The
174-pound Philadelphian lurched
forward. then staggered back
ward and finally sat down on
his launches.
Punch Really Hurt.
johnson tried to get up but
he couldn't move. He said in
his dressing room after the ma
tionally televised bout, THE
punch really hurt. I tried to
get up but I was stunned. I'm
still daZed."
Smith was a 2-to-1 underdog
and considered stepping stone
for johnson in the latter's cam
paign to earn another crack at
Moore. The veteran campaigner
spotted johnson speed, skill ard
youth.
Johnson began the scheduled
10-roundcr in his usual style,
sticking Smith with a sharp left
jab and tying up his slower op-
ponent when they moved inside.
He landed a hard right hand at
the first-round bell that seemed
to hurt Smith.
The second round took the
same course, johnson stabbing
and Smith plodding around the
ring looking for an opening.
Suddenly, Smith Iashed out with
his right and to the amaZement
of sparse Arena crowd-t the
promoters didn't announce the
attendance or gate-Johnson
went down and out.
Looking to HeavyweightS.
The jubilant Smith, a prelimi-
nary fighter during most of his
13-year boxing career, said he
saw the opening for his right
in the first round and told his
handlers so between rounds.
"He Johnson) drops his left.
When he did it again in the
second. that was it. 1t was a
short rights. the best punch of
my life" said the smiling Negro
who formerly made Oakland,
Calf, his home.
The winner was so happy that
even the news his purse was
being held up because of a legal
suit failed to dampen his spirits.
A San Francisco man, Joaquin
Andrade, filed the suit, claim
ing he is Smiths rightful man.

Smiths manager, Sheriff Jerry
Gormley of Atlantic City, said

Richardson, president of the

Just before his statement
came one from John McShain

of the club. McShain said he
wanted out of the deal, that

But Richardson said, If they
(the owners) give me the pack
age, can go out and sell it,
adding:
"These people want to know
what they are buying"
He said he would keep the cluk
in Philadelphia if it was sup.
ported. However, he said, il
Philadelphia wouldn't support
the AS. he would move them tt
one of six other cities.
He listed the cities as Toronto
Montreal, Los Angeles, San Fran.
cisco, Houston and St. Paul.
He declined to give the num-
ber or names of the men in the
group willing to buy the AS il
they give me the right DEAL"
McShain, a close friend OF
Roy's, who has loaned the clut
money before, said fatty he hac
lost interest in the proposition
The nationally known Phila-
delphia builder said he had tried
to help out but was rebuffed by
Earle Mack.
Earle Mack Backed Out.
"It's ancient history now" Nc
Shain said last night. I'VE had
arrangements made with all
three Macks, even had the papers
signed. But the next day Earle
asked to be relieved and that was
that.
II have never given Roy any
encouragement from that day to
this. When Earle asked to be
released lost interest" McShain
said.
The builder said that Roy did
come to him after the recent
American League meeting in New
York and asked him to reopen
the question. II had to tell him
my attitude had not changed
The same goes now, and I can
see no future time when it might

McShain's withdrawal as q
possible investor in the Athletics
is believed to shatter Roy's last
hope to retain control of the club

past 81 years. Unless Roy has

ter of Chinese father and a
Filipino mother, she was born
in the Philippines. but due to
her fathers nationality she is
a citizen of China. She came
here in 1850 on a visitors visa
which has expired. She is now

Grace said she knew why she
was there, in the big bare room
in the Old Post Office Building.
"To come to the court" she said.
On the record, it was "to show
cause why she should not be
deported." A private bill intro

which would have kept the girl
in this country. failed to pass in

Mrs. Hobby Sees Aid
To Schools Now as
Delay 10 Local Action

Secretary of Welfare Hobby
said today that any drop in
the bucket" appropriations by
Congress for school construc-
ton needs probably would actu-
ally deter" local districts from
undertaking their own building
programs.
At a press conference, Mrs.
Hobby contended that local Of
f1cials were likely to take a watt
and-see attitude if a few mil
lions Of dollars were voted before
the proper formula for Govern
ment aid is found.
Need for $12 Billion.
She said that no Federal aid
to education bill would be sent
to Congress by the department
until a formula is found which
will establish proven need and
lack of fiscal capacity" She
estimated school construction
needs at $12-$16 billion.
Mrs Hobby pointedly re-
marked that many Of the 60, 900
school districts in the United
States which need new schools
have 1t within their own power
to build them.
But they won't raise real
estate assessments or vote to
increase their bonded indebted
ness in order to do it" she said.
Integration Next Year.
Mrs. Hobby said that by The
fall of 1855 all schools on Fed
eral property would be inte-
grated.
The Secretary told reporters
that the main legislative effort
Of the department in the next
Congress would be on health.
She said that a new health re-
insurance bill would be intro
duced which would spell out
more clearly what groups Of the
population can be helped and
that she hoped ''very much" that
the American Medical Associa-
ton would support it.
