Matthews
Winner in
2nd Round
OMAHA. Dec. 14 — ■I' — Light
heavyweight Harry <Kid» Matthews
scored a second round knockout
over heavyweight Art Henri here
last night and today his manager,
Jack Hurley, was New York bound
to talk about "a big fight” for the
Kid.
Actually, the summons to New'
York came in a phene call just be
fore the Matthews-Henri fight.
It brought a quick shift in Hur
ley's plans to return to Seattle with
his fighter. Instead, he said he
would leave early today for New
Yolk on "a matter of importance.”
Hurley parried questions about
whether he meant a talk with In
ternational Boxing Club represen
tatives about a fight for Matthews
with the lightheavyweight title
holder, Joey Maxim.
“After all,” Hurley said, “we're i
interested in the heavyweight title, ■
too.”
Matthews disposed of Henri in:
his best fashion. He kept the New
York Negro back-tracking through- :
out the bout. Only with some fancy
left-hand punching in the first
round did Henri delay the knock- .
out.
Shortly after the bell for the
second, Matthews battered Henri
with a furious series of lefts and
rights. A right-cross to the chin
finished Henri at 2:17 of the sec
ond.
Klosterman Rated
Chief Passer,
Record Breaker
By MURRAY ROSE
NEW YORK, Dec 14 — (£1 — Don
Klosterman, L o y o 1 a's one-man
bombing squadron, topped the na
tion’s major college passers during
the past season and set eight re
cords in the process.
The 21-year-old senior at the Los
Angeles university threw 315 times
and completed 159 in nine games,
breaking records for both the num
ber of tosses and for completions.
Football passing came easy to the
freckle-faced youngster who got in
plenty of practice passing the food
around the Klosterman dining table.
Don is the 12th of 15 children in
Klo.sty ought to get the junior
achievement award for his industry
in Loyola’s game with Florida on
Oct. 6. All Don did that day was
to pitch 63 times, complete 33 and
gain 372 yards, breaking records
for one game on all three counts.
Loyola lost that game, incidentally,
40-7.

Stir Up Started
In De-emphasis
Sport Program
WASHINGTON, Dec. 14 — Vft —
J The men who run the bowl games
: and some of the men who direct
college athletic programs let it be
i known today they don’t think much |
! of a football de-emphasis program
laid down by ten college presidents.
The presidents, members of a j
special committee set up by the'
American Council on Education, to!
study what’s wrong with college
sports, recommended these strong
measures:
1. Abolition of all bowl games.
2. Barring of freshmen from var
sity sports.
3. Refusing alumni and other.
booster groups permission to give!
[scholarship, directly to athletes.
Three hour, after the president’s j
program was announced yesterday,1
Southeastern Conference athletic
directors, in session at New Orleans,
voted “almost unanimously” to tell;
j the college presidents to keep their
hands off the bowl policies of that j
conference.
Representatives of the Rose, Cot- !
ton and Orange Bowls questioned,!
in varying degrees, the wisdom or j
necessity for the presidents’ anti
bowl proposal. A Shrine Bowl rep
resentative said he was sure they
weren’t after this charity game.
No one commented for the Sugar
Bowl.
Professor H. P. Everett of the
University of Washington, acting as
official spokesman for the Pacific
Coast conference, said his group "is
way ahead" of the college presidents
who spoke up in Washington.
PC Conference
Satisfied with j
Rose Bowl Plans
CARMEL, Calif., Dec. 14 — <Jt)
The Pacific Coast conference is sat- j
isfied with its Rose Bowl arrange
ment, says the PCC president, Or- I
lando Hollis of Oregon University. I
He gave that answer to university ‘
pre-idents, who recommended ban
ning all bowl games.
“This matter was studied tby the
PCC) last January at Riverside and
again in February at San Fran
cisco," he : aid as the PCC midwinter
meeting broke up.' “We have signed
three contracts — with the Big
Ten, the Tournameat of Roses
committee and the National Broad
casting Co. — all extending over a
three year period. The contract
speaks for itself as to our attitude.”
