A The scores were 6-2, 6-3. 1. Agawam and Acorns Doomed On Saturday Leonardi Teams Face Double Defeat; Navy, Dartmouth, Princeton to Fall BV MAJOR AMOS B. HOOPLE (Football's First Gang Tackler) "Give me liberty or give me death." Awfff spttt! No, folks, I'm not brushing up for the thespian playoffs at the Owls Club.
Rather, I'm only echoing the pleas of Joe Bellino as he tries to talk his commander at Newport Naval Station into a short week- end pass so that he may do battle with Providence against the Springfield Acorns Saturday night at the Pynchon playground. Hmmmmm. Spreads Out Talents Introducing Bellino into this sacred space is just my sneaky. way of saying that your vorite seer--and mineturned pro. Yes, you readers sound mind and good taste, I have decided that I have been a professional shut-in too long.
I must spread out, not sit on my talents. (Eds. note: We didn't know there was a bar stool that this first week of faultless forecasting among the more rugged gladiators of our national contact pastime, I shall make a peek-a-boo appearance limiting my selections to those heroes from the "Hill," the Acorns. Unfortunately, hruumph, this means that Harry, Leonardi will be hit by a double Zounds, friends, poor Harry is doomed. In the afternoon he'll be clawed and at night he'll be steamrollered when, on Saturday, his AgaHighs are by his Acorn ACFLs are amthe Cathedral Panthers" and bushed by the Providence Steamrollers.
Awwkkk! heart, my faithful followers, all is not lost for Western Mass. The collegiatesblessed by the thoughtful hand of the schedule makers can't possibly make this a complete black Saturday for their root-' ers. Amherst plays AIC and may I say, "pass the band aids" in this overmatch during which the Jeffs will, stuff themselves with. touchdowns. Springfield meets Williams and this, too, could be murder as the Maroons make merry.
Now if only UMass had scheduled Mt. Holyoke, I would have myself another automatic pick. However, the Redmen are down to play Bucknell-a team of bountiful ability which, alas, will make the afternoon long and miserable for the Fusia folk singers. Hedgehopping across great land of ours I see such unusual developments as Columbia and Archie Roberts roughing up Princeton, Pennsylvania putting Dartmouth to rest, Michigan making Navy seasick and Michigan State taking Southern Cal right out of the national picture. "In passing, might I mention that last week you read it here; that Oklahoma would shock Southern Cal and Nebraska would knock out Minnesota.
With these gems the record among the colleges zoomed to 42-14 while the schools--whose antics proved most embarrassing, out 18-6. Before you continue along to the rest of what coast-to-coast readers insist is the greatest buy in the country for seven feast yourself on my other' selections. Aren't they the greatest? Fap!

Grid Teams Make Changes AIC, Springfield, UMass, Williams Plan New Starters for Saturday Tilts By JERRY RADDING Except for Amherst, which reason to stand pat, the Western Mass.
colleges have made a changes for Saturday's gridiron games. This week's WM menu has home choice of flavor. three City games, one at Pratt Field and two minutes away in Amherst, takes care of, the entire flock. Prindle Ready to Start Springfield is at home, for third straight week, taking Williams this time. Amherst host American International Massachusetts will entertain Bucknell.
Injury recoveries and change of heart have caused the coaches to make some moves. Springfield's Ted Dunn nounced Thursday that regular left tackle Paul Prindle is ready to assume a starting role again. Prindle had a shoulder separation in pre-season drills. He action last week against Amherst. The 220-pound senior from Sharon, Conn.
will replace sophom*ore Doug Coupe. Only other possible starting change in the Maroons' lineup at left halfback, where Dunn hinted that Tom Ryan could return "if he's strong enough to go both Despite a bad ankle, Ryan raced 60 yards with an interceptpass for a touchdown last He'll definitely play on de fense, with soph Harold Vasvari continuing on offense if Ryan isn't ready. Couple of Switches At AIC, there are a couple switches in the line. Right end Ron Cournoyer sprained his ankle Hofstra and will be out of action until next week. Soph Pete Babichicos Chicopee is taking place.
And City boy Ray Jodoin appears to have won back left guard job from veteran Tavares. Only other area of doubt is at fullback, where Coach Gay Salvucci is still pondering whether keep Dick Pasquini in there or giving Agawam sophom*ore Roy Benjamin a chance. Benjamin injured earlier, but saw some service last week. UMass coach Vic Fusia, displeased with his offense in the two games, has promoted Bobby Ellis and Ken Palm to the starting halfback positions in place of Fred Lewis and Phil DeRose. Ellis was the Redmen's best-looking back in the scoretie at Harvard last week.
Dallas at Center Up front, Fusia has elevated promising sophom*ore Bernie Dalto the No. 1 center spot in places of a Charlie fire-eating Scialdone. linebacker. DalRegular center Al Hagemen right halfback Ken of whom sat out last week's with injuries, will be starters for Williams Saturday. Hageman, the 6-6, 240-pound middleman, is over his foot troubles.
Soph Lee Comfort, the top. man at right half, will be back, but only for limited work. "We. were flat last week. just weren't ready," says Eph coach Frank Navarro.
"We expect much better shape this week's game." Navarro feels that his team's loss to Trinity shouldn't have been as one-sided as the 27-0 score would seem to indicate. EXTRA POINTS -Pass defense has been the big project at AIC and UMass this Aces were beaten through the airways both Vermont and Hofstra. They've given up five TD's on passes. Redmen have to respect Bucknell's Don Rogers, who has completed 23 out of 29 for 255 yards and four touchdowns Suffolk Mutuels 1-2-6-7 Races $259.00 RAcES $299.00 7 Races $368.40 Three Races $174.00 Five Races $240.40 Seven Races $368.40 New Players Missing as Indians Tangle With Hub Bruins Twice By GENE McCORMICK The Springfield Indians--minus five players expected dress the club's new look--open home-and-home exhibition series against the Boston Bruins tonight at 8 in the Boston Garden.

Boddy stayed two days and word. left camp without saying a Rinkside visitors. Thursday were disappointed, however, when they asked each other: "Where's Bruce Gamble?" For the former Bruins goalie had been in training camp right from the start and the last word from Stamford for was that he was heading Springfield. Becomes Holdout Gamble, though, isn't here and won't be unless he and the others have a change of heart. The goalie reportedly became miffed because he didn't play in Tuesday night's exhibition game against the Minneapolis Bruins.
Thus, he joins the holdout brigade that mounts to dangerous proportions in terms of potential quality when it comes to evaluating the strength of the Indians as of now. said Thursday that defenseman Barry Trapp didn't sign a contract either, although he did go to Rochester to pick up rates his wife. Trapp presently of as either the fifth or sixth defenseman on the club. Whether he turns up today or Saturday remains to be seen.
