When Johnny squarebl-lggs sends his Prince of W-ales Welshmen out against Legionaires in next Tuesday night's hockey encounter at the Forum fans will see a squad that has been practically rebuilt from lust year with only three of last- yeafs team dotting the lineup. The game, originally scheduled for Thursday. was post- poned by the league executive yes- tcnzlly. ll- i- O l- But lust in case any doubt ex- ability Coach Squarebrlggs cleared that angle up pretty well last evening when he stated that the squad would be just as good as last year's edition. That was a. long speech from Snug but one that he meant and it. de- finitely clears up the doubt that has surrounded this year's Prince of Wales team ever since the sea- son got underway. i- 4- 0

Despite the fact that last year's Wclshmen could win but one game while tying a couple more, they were always furnishing the stout- est of competition to the other league members and although their popular coach is not expect- ing any wonders this season nev- ertheless the squad he has under his charge will prove no “setups?

It has meant a lot of hard, pa- tient work during the past month to build up the team to its pre- sent status. No doubt about lt the Prince of wiles team looked definitely weak 1n their first few workouts but with several gaps on the forward and defence lines plugged with members of other Wellhmen teams and clu-eful coaching of the newcomers, the team has developed even beyond the expectation of the club offic- isls.

Prince of Wales teams have al- ways proved big drawing cards in City League Competition. Particu- larly was this so when they clash-

slcs and although Saints are still the pick o1 this year's pack they can still expect plenty of trouble when faced by the blue and red clad warriors representing the City college. ll- II Q-

Suggests Jury For Bhalnpionship Fights

PORTLAND, Me, Dec. 9' —(AP) —Cogni1.axlt of the hue and cry over the Joe Louis-Jersey Joe Wal- cott fight decision, Worthen C. (Bud) Cornish, Portland Evening Express sports editor, today came up with the suggestion for s jury to set in championship bouts, Counlsh would have s jury of 12 to-pfllght boxing writers frcm Press associations and newspapers sup- plalnt the two judges now used. The referee would continue in his present role.

“The cost against the gates of such fights,’ said Cornish, “would be little to protect the sport frcm the black eye of cries of ‘robbery’ such as have followed the decision given Louis over Walcott last Fri- day night in New York."

Bill Nlosienko To Play Again Tonight ‘

CHICAGO, Dec. 9—- (AD-Bill Mosienko, Winnipeg-born left winger with Chicago Black Hawks out of the game because of a broken ankle suffered in the All- star game Oct. 13, will play his his first regularly scheduled Nu- tlonsl Hockey League game of ‘one night against Boston Bruins in the season for the Hawks tomorrow Chicago Stadium.

Baseball Trade ls Announced

NEW YORK, Dec. 8—0utflelder Dixie Walker and pitchers Vic Lombardi and Hal Gregg were traded to Pittsburgh by Brooklyn Dodgers today 1n return gfor shortstop Billy cox, pitcher Elwin (Preacher) Roe and infielder Gene Mauch as the wlntenmsjor league baseball meetings opened with a. flurry of activity.

New Life. Put Into Heavyweight Boxing

NEW YORK. Doc. 0-1.4?)- Thl heavyweight boxing division was humming like s wartime ship- yard today all because of chomp ion Joe Louis’ showing against Jersey Joe Wllcoi/t last Friday Right

Louis’ hollow triumph over Jer- sey Joe has emboldened both managers and their heavyweight charges like a shot oi’ klckapoo juice. This doesn't mean that the ring pilots lrc breaking clown the doors of the Twentieth Century sporting Club to clamor for title shots.

They all know that the chomp and the Camden, N. J., pups. of six are going to do it all over again outdoors 1n June and with- out much doubt the site will be Yankee Stadium. They realize that Walcott is entitled to this big money shot but, win, lose or draw, they want to get in on what happens after.

If Louis wins the chances are that he will retire ll the un- detected champion of ilhc world. The Brown Bomber has his heart set on this and his shaky victory Friday has strengthened his re- solve to go down in ring history with the title "champion" before his name. Louis’ handlers. Mar- shal] Miles and John Roxborough, have indicated that the champ still may continue after the June bout. But. if the gate hits the expected $1,500,000 or more, Louis most 1lkely will collect and call it a. day.

If Louis should lose. to Walcotl, the yspplng of the hounds will be heard in loud discord. In boxing circles the talk chiefly centres around Louis’ inept performance and the sudden uplift oi spirit among the potential challengers.

Few are undezrating Walcott. either. The crafty fight he waged against Louis has boosted his pres- tige to r. high level. And despite his sidestepping, backpedalinl tac- tics oglinst Louis, he displayed l. hefty right hand punch.

Then too, Jersey Joe had done s pretty fair job of mopping up most o1 the better heavyweights srolmd including Curtis (Hatchet- man) Sheppard, Lee Q. Murray, Tommy Gomez, Jimmy Blvins, Joe Maxlm_ Lee Oma and Elmer Ray in the last two years.

Just the same the names of light heavyweight champion Gus Lesnsvioh ; light heavyweight

"Bznrd Charles who wilt fight Gus

for the 175-pound title soon; Olle Tandberg, tbeswedish battler who upset Joe Baksl, and Italy's Gino Buonvino were being mentioned with increasing boldness.

Others shrugged off these name cloutars and declared the coming champion will have to come from the young group which includes Jackie Cranford and Bernie Rey- nolds among others.

Lslt but not least is Billy Oonn, twice beaten by Louis but ltill a youngster at 31 compared to some of the veteran fighters in the ring now. The one-time Fancy Dan of the ring said today he had received l lot of offers llnse Louis’ narrow squelk over Wol- cott lnd declared he "might think of l comeback."

He added, however, "I might lust go right on thinking lboui. 1t forever.”

Pacific Coast Clubs May Bo in Majors Soon

NEW YORK, Dec. 9 -(AP)—The presence of the Pacific Coast teams 1n hhb ‘major baseball leagues in the near future become l dis- tinct posslbilrty today when it was learned that the National and American Leagues will suggest to the Coast League Thursday to bring in four of its big clubs for the purpose of forcnlng two IO-team major leagues.

A reliable source told the As- sociated Press that the Majors will lnforlm Pacific Coast representat- ives they are willing to take in the cities of San Francisco. Los Angeles, Hollywood and Oakland provided obese clubs can obtain territorial releases from the Paci- fie Coast League.

At the same time. according to the source. the majors will tlrrn down the Coast League's No. 1 pro- posal request to be granted s high- er classification. The latter would give the Coast League l. ranking between its present triple-A rating and the big leagues.

Under the IO-tcam setup. the National League probably would ex- pand to include Los AflBcles and Oakland, and the American Lesgue would expand to include San Fran- cisco and Hollywood. . '

Mexicans Learn Hard Way About Big Time Ball

MEXICO CITY, Dec. ' —(AP)-—- Mexican baseball angels have paid out $800,000 in two years to learn that l roster of expensive imported stars does not make the game.

This is the hard-cash reason for the cactus circuit’: decision to re- turn to tlhe less spectaculor-—and more profitable-days of 1940 when clubs depended on native talent, with only s scattering of Cubsnl. United States minor lelguerl and negroes.

though neither title Mexican League nor its clubs publish fin- ancial statements, the game's best students keep close check 0n the figy-fig-dgy m; office and secret terms of players’ contracts. Under- ground reports from the six tenths in the 1947 season add up to a 1.- SOODOO-peso ($300,000) loss.

This was shared among five teams. willh only one, the chomp- lon Monterrey nine, bresldng even.
