The four squads worked on both offense and de fense in an effort to smooth out the aerial attack. Major Jones stated that the squad will engage in regular scrimmage on both Thursday and Saturday afternoon.

D., and Raymond Czirr, 1S5 pound center from Hardy in this elate. The six man game, invented only a few short years ago by Stephen Epler, a former Nebraska U. man, has spread like wildfire throughout the country, and for the past two years All-American squads have been named. Strangely enough, Nebraska, where six man football was orig inated, had never drawn any ma terial from six man football schools, but judging from the high school performances of Sather and Czirr, they are going in for quality In a big way. Czirr, who ia 6 feet 1 inch tall, was a member of the undefeated, untied Hardy high team, which won the state championship by defeat ing Cathedral of Lincoln. Ho was a member of the Hardy basketball team which made a good showing in the class B slate basketball tournament, and spent the sum mer working in a local mortuary. Sather, who is nearly 5-11, is undecided as to whether he will report for football this fall or not because of his lack of weight. Pos sessor of a fine scholastic record in high school, he may concentrate on his studies until the basketball season, when he will make his bid for a starting berth on the fresh man team. Sather was also a track Ptar of no mean ability, and plans to report for the cinder sport here.

Lou as ECO's Bob Pastor in eleventh 45,000 crowd Briggs stadium to view 8th 'Bomber' title defense Joe Louis Knocked out Bob Pastor in the eleventh round of the 20 round championship bout, fought before 45,000 onlookers last night at Briggs stadium m Detroit. After hitting the mat three times in the first ronnd and once in the second, twice to the count of nine, Pastor sought to kerp away from- Louis' devastating blows. In the fifth, a volley of head blows momentarily d&xed the champion, giving the New Yorker courage to make a desperate t tack. Pastor began for the first time in the fight an aggresaive on slaught, thia starting in the eighth and lasting through the tenth rounds. Bob charged Louis, throw ing hard punches and landing a few as the stadiuia soared. Louis waa driven to the ropes. Anybody's fight. As the eleventh atid last round opened it was anybody's fight Pastor and Louis met in the center of the ring, threw a few jabs and danced around with the freshness of the first round. Louis at last finding the chance for which he had been waiting stepped in and threw the punch that sent Pastor to the mat. The latter lifted him self to his knees, but on the count of eight gave up and fell back onto his elbows. Jne Louis remained the champion of the world. WALLACE Football to be faster PHILADELPHIA. College foot ball this fall will be faster than ever, with more touchdowns and more passing, according to Francis Wallace, noted sports authority, in his annual "pigskin preview' today in the Saturday Evening Post, "The accent for 1939 ia on speed more speed from opening to closing whistles, more plays per game, more scoring plays, fewer time-outs, less lagging all along the line,'' says Wallace. "Every thing I've, been able to gather from a ground crew composed of the best football coaches in the country adds up to this conclu sion." Wallace, a& U hia annual civs- torn, lifts players from the more important colleges who, in his es timation will be this year's stars. , Wallace i-eports that there is pow erful sentiment in favor of rule ; changes to speed up the game, and some suggestions would re strict time-outs, especially in the closing minutes of play, and others would deal with unorthodox de fense. Pass may be overdone , J "The groat danger is that the trend to passing this season will j be overdone," says Wallace. "Pass ing may be overdone, as ra?.nle d.iz?.le was overdone. The wise coach will go all the way out on passing only when he has the parsers and receivers. He will con tinue to fit his style of play to hia material. But he will also try to get hacks abl to pass and emts able to snare the heaves. "Another trend which may speed the game is a movement away from the huddle and back to sig nal calling. This Is very slight as yet. "Whier use of linemen as backs al.o will make for more big gains and more scoring. "In the field of subsidization there la a general settling process. The national trend la definitely away from excess, except in the south." Cobs to discuss plans at meeting tomorrow Corn Cobs will moot tomorrow evening at 7:30 in Union 313. Pres ident Ralph Reed says it is urgent that all actives and officers be present. A discussion of the plans for the year, including pledge plans, will take place.
