Four Ten-Round Main Events is Olympia Package
Summerlin,
Duke Harris
Included
I Four ten-round main events,
each strong enough to top
most fight shows!
That is th« punch packed
fistic bargain which Director
of Promotions Nick Londos
offers for tho next ring at
traction at the Olympia
Tuesday, Nov. 1.
The best of Detroit's good
young sci-appers will get their
chance on this show, where Lon
rjrs hopes to give these young-
Kcis the opportunity to show
Bhat they can do against tough
competition. The card:
Won 10 of M
Johnny Summerlin, outstanding
Detroit heavyweight vs. Ben
Thomas. Chicago, belter who has
won 10 of his first 14 starts
through 1954.
Duke Harris, fast-rising local
welterweight vs. Andy Watkins
ot Indianapolis, who has won 10,
fought a draw and lost twice in
13 outings.
Ken Mike Hammer, one-time
Joldcn Boy of the amateur ranks
ho has developed into a sturdy
ro vs. Larry Watson, Chicago
navy weight who has posted 16
numphs in 28 starts against
tugged foes.
Beat Satterfield
I Marty Marshall, Michigan light
heavyweight champion, who up
set Bob Satterfield last year. vs.
S*a n Mylinski, Chicago battler
who has won 15, fought three
draws and lost four through 1954.
All four Detroit belters are
rung men of exceptional poise
jnd punch but Summerlin and
Harris are probably the most
highly regarded of the quartet. In
judifc*r«nt of most competent
Wit m**., both Summerlin and
Harri> are ready to take only
[ irvbody in their divisions.
Each made his debut as an
Olympia main eventcr with a
flouri.-h this Fall. Harris showed
hi- fondness for the Olympia by
Hopping Frank Smith ip six tor
rid round? in September. Sum
merlin disposed of Neil Welch in
tight earlier this month.

WESTSIDE CITY LEAGUE GRID
CROWN A SCRAMBLE FOR SIX
M'ford Nips
Redford in
12-6 Upset
The 1954 City League Co
s Mumford High, which
has been looking more like a
cellar-dweller, sprung a surprise
12-6 upset over Redford last Fri
day evening, forcing the cham
pionship race to be one of the
wildest in history.
When the smoke cleared after
other West Side battles, there
was only one unbeaten left,
Cooley, who has been tied twice
and was idle over the weekend.
With only a week left after
play this weekend, there’s cham
pionship possibilities for six of
the 11-team sectional loop.
East Side Different
It was a different story, how
ever, on the East Side as un
beaten Pershing continued un
hampered towards its third
straight championship by trounc
ing Eastern, 39 to 0. Miller was
upended by Southeastern, 26-13,
while Northeastern smothered
victoryless Northern, 25-0, in the
other Eastern sectional games.
Teams with championship pos
sibilities are Redford, Western,
Cooley. Mumford, U. of D. t and
Cody, but Wescrn seems to be
favored by the schedule since it
faces Cody then Norhwestern.
Western is powerful offensively
as shown last Friday when it
steamrolled Mackenzie out of con
tention by the humiliating score
of 49 to 19. The other west side
games included a freely-scoring
one for U. of D. which defeated
Chadsey, 45-0, a tight 16 to 14
Cody win over Northwestern, and
Southwestern taking Central, 7
to 0.
The U. of D. team, also a 1954
co-champion. had its champion
ship fever cooled earlier when it
lost an upset to Western, but the
Cubs still have a slim chance to
get by if they can take Cooley
and Mumford, both of whom are
plenty tough.
How Mumford Made Score
•Here's how Mumford scored its
upset against Redford:
The score was tied at 6-6 when
Quarterback Sain Stone fumbled
on the seven-yard line of Mum
ford as he hit a solid forward
wall. The ball rolled back to the
19 where it was. scooped up by
Mike Schlff on the run, who
went over for a touchdown in the
opposite end zone without a hand
being laid on him during an 81-
yu- and sprint. 4
Alvin Copeland returned a
kickoff 85 yards for a touchdown
to Mart the Western riot of Mac
kenzie, putting his team *ut in
pent 12 to 7 late in the first
period.
Leads 32-0 At Half
U. of’D. had an easy time with
Chadsey, taking things easy after
building up a 32-0 halftime lead.
Cody dumped Northwestern on
a third-plav safety as Cody bnt
tled back after a 14-0 deficit built
up on pay-dirt runs of North
western’s Gee Frazier of 65 and
five yards each.
Calvin Hawkins sped 22 yards
in the first period to give South-

Hollek h,is been and ung mast of
his wrestling on the east coast

On the East Side, Fred Julian

aided with two touchdowns.

then and less easily disturbed.
Hunting and good eating at

Some of the birds are popular
because their feathers make chic
ornaments for ladies' hats. There

hunters, Professor Chase relates.

The Terrapins of Maryland replaced them chiefly by rolling

Many can recall that it was tlm Michigan-born tackle who par
ticularly made two key tackles in the la t moments of the game
when it seemed that the Fighting Irish were headed f. r p .v-dn t to
slow’ their attack, and on another occasion intercepted a pass deep
in the opposition’s territory to smear another.
Certainly this was enough for the affable guy to gain soma
mention for top-flight defense work, but evidently the brilliant
play of other teammates overshadowed his performance.
Forgot to mention, 100. that Robinson almost magged another
lush pass in the last minutes. He batted it down howevei. and
caused the Irish to kick. See why this corner goes for the guv.
