Reluctant End

Paluck is another matter. The
reluctant defensive end doesn't
answer letters, ignores his con-
tract and leaves word that he's
gone fishin'" when the tele-
phone rings. There is a good
chance that Paluck will be
traded If McPeak can get any,
thing for him.
With only three weeks to

Floyd knocked out the Swede in
the fifth round, June 20, 1860.
Both Liston and Patterson
are in good physical condition,
apparently completely healed
from the knee and finger in
juries that forced the post
ponements.
They will undergo their final
pre-fight physical tomorrow
before the Nevada State Ath-
letic Commission.
Under Nevada rules, two
judges and a referee, to be
named at ringside, will judge
the fight, using a five-point
must system. The winner of a
round gets five points and the
loser four or less. Even rounds
are scored SIS.
The fighters will wear g.
ounce gloves.
Sonny to Weigh 215
Liston, who now admits he
is 80, a year older than the
record book says, had been
reported grossly overweight at
Miami in March. Unofficial re-
ports said he was 218 earlier
in the week and would come
in at 215 pounds.
Sonny Boy, known here
abouts as the "big bear"
weighed 214 last September.
He has won q straight and
owns a BAL record with "a
knockouts. His only defeat
came in his eighth pro fight,
an eight-round decision by
Marty Marshall at Detroit, Sept.
Z, 1854. He later stopped Mar
shall, who had broken his jaw.
Patterson. grimly determined
to vindicate himself for his
complete collapse last year, has
been working hard in the 105-
degree heat. He expects to come
in at 1874 or 1876 as compared
to the 189 for the first Liston
fight.
Floyd has a 1873 record for
Al starts since he won the
Olympic title in 1852. He has
knocked out 20 opponents and
has been stopped twice.

-Four Veterans
Sill Unsigned
By Redskins
BY LEWIS F. ATCHISON
Star staff Writer

The Redskins have no official
holdouts, but four veterans will
report unsigned this week to
training camp at Dickinson
College, Carlisle, Pa. One, End
John Paluck, has been a chronic
e arly-season headache for
Washington coaches.
The others, Defensive Tackle
Bob Toneff, Defensive Halfback
Jim Steffen and Linebacker
Gene Cronin, want more money,
but Coach Bill McPeak antici-
pateS no serious trouble with
them. All three hail from Cali
fornia.
"They don't like to negotiate
by mall" McPeak said. "They
prefer to sit down with me and
talk it over and we won't have
any trouble reaching an agree
ment."

one-in-a-million shot succeeded Denman
Thompson as sports boss Of The Star,
Thompson having also launched his own
career on the same South Bend paper when
it merely was called The NetDS.
Egan idolized the Notre Danes of
Rockne, but he blew cold after Frank Leahy
and Terry Brennan took over as coaches.
Football next to racing, probably was his
favorite sport Back in 1887, first year for
the Redskins in Washington, he rode a
day coach for a day and a night in order
to attend the championship playoff with
the Bears.
The rumpled, shaggy passenger merely
was assistant city editor, If memory serves,
and he was paying his own way. In later
years he often passed up expense-account
trips and dispatched young sports reporters
in his stead. IF they don't see anything"
he would grumble, what good are they?"
THE VETERAN JOCKEY, Steve Brooks,
never had more dedicated champion than
Egan, who forever was prefacing tales
with II remember the date exactly because
had SIS going on Brooksie :" 1t always
was "Brooksie," as If he were kinfolk or
something.
AS matter Of fact Egan had
voluminous and practically infallible
memory, but he had his own private file.
He was a walking record book, yet he knew
few if any of the heroes whose achieve
mentS rolled so easily off his tongue.
Once a cub sports writer answered
telephone call from a subscriber who
wanted to know when the Senators last won
a pennant.

Everybody knows it was 1888"
That was how Chuck Egan measured
the years . by Kentucky Derby winners.
Eisenhower wasn't elected in 1882 He be-
came President of the United States In
Hill Calls year."
FOR AN EDITOR WHO spoke so cut
tingly to subordinates, peers and superiors
alike, Egan was painfully shy when staff
member attempted to take him into ball
clubs dressing room or dugout, or -.
Well, there was this time in Louisville.
After all of his years of worship at the
altar of Steve Brooks Eddie Arcaro and
Johnny Longden had faults, but not

lucky Derby social and sporting exercise
he never missed
In the lobby of the Kentucky Hotel he
began to talk volubly about the proves of
Brooks, who was to ride a horse for
Calumet.
"I don't like Calumet any more than
like the Yankees" Chuck said, "but Brook
sic is guy I've got to bet on"
WELL" said companion pointing to
the Cardinal Room, which presents a pic
ture- window that exposes diners to the
lobbyists, there's your friend, eating
snack with his agent. Let's talk to him."
That's Brooks?" asked Egan, the re-
porter-eater who must have spent small
fortune betting on the jockey "Oh, no, I
wouldn't want to bother him"
you've never met Brooks?"
II know how he rides" Egan replied,
a humble man.
He was shy in this respect, but never
in the shop. He was an Editor. Also

VIM LOSE OR DRAW
This Was Chuck Egon,
Born to Be an Editor

49, CHARLES MICHAEL EGAN, who has
Just left us to fill in his old friend Knute
Rockne on recent developments, was the
kind of newspaperman that people in the
business aren't likely to forget in a hurry
He was born editor not by-line type
guy, and unjustifiably the memory of his
prowess will be limited
o~s That this memory will be restricted
to pros wouldn't have diSpleased Chuck
who died at IS Friday after a lingering
illness which forced him to abandon sports
editorship of The Star. In some ways Egan
was out of "The Front Page" except that
instead of the wisecracking tilted-hat re-
porter created by Charlie Macarthur and
Ben Hecht he was the unseen, nearly un-
known tyrant on the desk who made the
Lee Tracy-type puppets dance.
There were times when Egan seemed
as hard on the outside as he assuredly was
soft and sentimental on the inside. He
barked at and chewed on his reporters
cityside or Sports-but he was the editor
who banged his big fist on the desks of
higher editors, and even owners, in defense
Of the same personnel
All of his life, particularly when he
switched from news editor to sports, he was
locked in constant battle between Editor
and Buff. Until the paper was put to bed
Editor invariably won. Thereafter -.
t,'. %%&%
p EGAN ONCE REMARKED of one of his
sports writers, Hes probably the best re-
porter in his field in America, but he could
not cover a marble match without taking
sides" What he was doing, consciously or
otherwise, was describing himself
Only the editor in Egan-and it must
have been an innate gift-Saved him. He
actively disliked such as Ty Cobb and
Rogers HornSby as personalities, yet never
treated them unfairly, nor attempted to
belittle their records. If any Of his own
prejudice was reflected by reporter with
applepolishing tendencies, he brought the
culpit up short.
"Damnation," he would roar. Look
at the recordS If they weren't great who
WASP" Later, possibly in friendly tavern,
Chuck would confide that in his opinion
Cobb was a mean and hidebound man and
that Hornsby'S only asset, aside from a re-
mafkable batting eye, was an addiction for
betting on horses.
Al summons, WHO wash 1IlSH dI al,
was his favorite ball player. After Sim
mons at least among the moderns
he leaned toward Jim Piersall, who is mostly
French.
Once Chuck was asked why he took
shine to Piersall well, he never ran away
from fight in his life" he replied, land
don't think he ever won one. And come TO
think of it, I believe my record was about
the same"

HORSE RACING WAS CHUCK'S cup of
tea, an expression of which he was fond It
was Egan who organized The Stars extern
siVe coverage of the tracks Racing and
Notre Dame reigned supreme e. at least
for long period of time.
Chuck was large man of determined
Irish chin who originally came out of
Delphi, Ind, attended Notre Dame as
freshman, got involved with the Navy in
World War and never achieved his pri-
mary objective, which involved a law
degree. Instead, he got to be sports editor

has Times are changing.
THERE IS NO QUESTION, whatever, that we have
come a long way that through the years4we learned much,
and produced some Of the finest public servants to be found
anywhere. Much information was handed down from genera

sound methods, and generally good government, .esas.
BUT CHANCE will not permit US to stand still. The horse

speed Of sound. All this requires a typeof training which mere
apprenticeship cannot solve, and though some may scott at
wnar is called new" and extol the methods Of the past, yet the
facts of life must be faced. Training must be had to meet the
challenge of the day.
THEN THERE is the question of tomorrow. With life
ever increasing in its complexities what were once simple
household goods have become technical and complicated. The
artisans Of today must be trained to meet this demand. Today,
ahigh school education is the minimum for most jobs. College
education is being requared in the great majority fsklled po-
stonS, and especially nthe teaching profession. .sasg
TITS GOOD that we have a college, for it was needed.
Shortly, we shall be able to initiate programs Of all kinds, and
