(JP) The Eastern all-star football, squad which will engage a picked team from the West in the annual Shrine hospital benefit at San Francisco New Year's day, today was headed westward.

The squad received its first workout yesterday at Dyche Stadium, Northwestern University, under the direction of Coaches Dan Hanley, of Northwestern, and Andy Kerr, of Colgate. All 22 men invited started on the long journey to Talo Alto, where the squad will remain until the day of the game, no stop-overs for practice having been planned. tap of the bell he leaped like a panther from his corner, rocking the "big bear" with a storm of wild rights and lefts. But Trafton weathered the storm and carried the attack to Shires thereafter. Three times in the first round, Trafton's looping left books sent the Texan to the canvas.

After that round and what actual punches the two tired fighters could propel, it was all Trafton. Three or four times in each of the remaining rounds he gave Shires a few healthy- smashes and then walked around like any bear in a zoo with the very tired Mr. Shires walking after him, five feet away. Crowd Satisfied But the large crowd, which paid more than $15,000 to see the fight was more than satisfied, realizing the two bad fought every ounce of their vitality. The little arena was in an 'uproar, which was deafening when the two started each round by toe-to-loe miling.

Friends of both climbed to their corners between rounds offering advice. Women and men stood up during the fight swing ing their fists to convey more advice and twice the noise was so great that Arthur and George fought over time because the referee couldn't hear the bell. The two met in the shower baths after the fight, shook hands, complimented each other for "making suck ers out of those fight fans," and then went arm in arm to a night club. Trafton was in a jovial mood. "I'll fight anybody for another 11,000," he chuckled.

"That's an easy game. How long has this been going on?" S. I. A. A.

The pale Briton, meanwhile, remains among the three or four leading candidates for the headless heavyweight crown From the British angle, the workings of the master minds of American boxing may seem a trifle extraordinary. They would appear com pletely baffling, however, should! there be a sustained move to shuffle Scott out of the heavyweight competition merely because, after being fouled by Von Porat, the Briton refused to stand up, and be knocked out to satisfy the more blood-thirsty partisans of the ring, Knute Bockne's remarkable record at Notre Dame needs few, if any, endorsements, but a little rapid figuring shows the impressive record of 105 victories, 13 defeats and 3 ties in 13 years of Bock's coaching for a percentage of .889. This year marked the fourth unbeaten season for the Fighting Irish since Jimmy Phelan, now Purdue's successful head coach, captained the first Itockne-coached eleven in 191T.

From all angles, the greatest years were 1920, when George-Gipp's spectacular play beat both the Army and Nebraska 1924, when the Four Horsemen, captained by Adam Walsh, wrote an indelible record upon the game's history, and 1929, when the Irish campaigned success fully against opposition from coast to coast With "Rock" ill at home most of the season.

She is training for the national contest to be held at the Roman pools at Miami Beach in March and for the Olympic contests to be held at Los Angeles in 1932. Katherine can do the required dives, such as the swan, jack-knife, front and back, and the half -gainer. She is the eldest of five children, all of them being at home in the water. The others are Evelyn, 10; Dorothy, Sonny, and Teggy.

I By ALLAN The case of Philip Suffling, alias Phil Scott, may hate to be referred to a special investigator before a definite conclusion can be The British heavyweight champion baffled' Scotland Yard by a pe-l culiar habit of remaining vertical longer than any other English pugi list has done in years. Phil now has non-plussed the best American ex perts by defying the laws of gravity as well as all attempts to shuffle him out of the heavyweight picture. Just where he belongs in the picture at the moment is not quite clear, but he -is there, nevertheless, and regardless of an effort to ignore him. The critics gathered to see Victorio Campolo, the leaning tower of the Argentine, lean heavily upon Scott, but the agile Briton won on points without once hitting the floor. Again, the experts picked Otto Von Porat to dispose of Phil, "but Otto made the mistake of aiming a left hook too low, and Referee Jack Dempsey, in some confusion, was obligedto mark up another victory for the invader.

This brings up a curious coincidence in Scott's record. It shows he has lost four decisions, been knocked out four times, figured in four draws and won four times on a foul in the last three years. Except as boxer who has improved in American competition, Seott has yet to impress the critics with his ability. He lacks aggressiveness," and it Is a question whether he can "take it."
