ShaW. a 185-DOUnri tht-nwin- hpM. who led the nation's major colleg- s u wuu uuea&e, was me sur prise bonus pick of the Baltimore Colts in yesterdays prolonged pro fessional draft, enabling the Wash burn neositins gleefully to pluck the AH America GugUelmi. , Wilbur Ewbank, the Baltimore luara,, explained his choice of "J1-""" All America, over the highly touted engineer of Notre Dame's fighting Irish. The But . ' -We think Shaw is the best quar terback, in the country, barring none," he said. "We know he is great passer he proved it with losing team. We weren't too sure about the oa.in of Gutrlielmi be- . cause Notre Dame isn't essential ly a passing team." The Colts in their first regular pick seized Alan (The Horse) Ameche, stampeding All America fcillback from Wisconsin, giving them a potent' one-two punch oh the ground and in the air.

Wall.ck's Sitdown Brings Him Bout Big, tough Leo Wallick's sit down strike between the semi-final and main events at the Ar mory last week has paid off for him in a main event match with Pepper Gomez this week. The veteran Crippler was so per sistent in his demands that he have a chance at the winner oi the Gomez-LaChapelle engagement that he refused to leave the ring until Armory police were forced to remove him so the main event could go on. Settle Score Gomez defeated LaChapelle last week and is out to settle the score with Wallick. who lost a referee's decision to LaChapelle two weeks ago. jsui ijomez wants to leave no stones unturned in his quest to meeting world's champion Frank Stojack in a match here in the near future. He is currently the number one contender in these parts after nil most recent triumph and is con vinced that he can landle the strong Wallick. Wallick, the rugged ring master. will be trying to put Gomez away, of course, with his deathly pile driver, such as he used to wreck George Strickland last week. Matchmaker Elton Owen announc ed that another referee would han dle Saturday night's main event because he felt that he could not be as impartial as he would like to be where Wallick is involved. Curtis, Frenchman Set The evening's semi-final engage ment brings together Bud Curtis, strongman from Indiana, and the veteran LaChapelle. The big, mean Curtis lived up to advance notices last week when he dumped Jim LaRock with a full nelson. La Chapelle gained many supporters last week after he shook bands with Gomez following their rug ged bout. In the one-fall or best of three falls opener, popular Jack Kiser is back in action against up and coming Gene Detton. Kiser is now wrestling in the junior heavy ranks.

Marquette's Streak Boosted To 14 Wins . By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Even Marquette Coach Jack Nagle must be surprised over Hie Hiiltoppers' basketball success this season after their mediocre show ing a year ago. Marquette, the nation's 11th ranking team, has put together a M-game winning streak longest in collegiate circles this 'season after an opening loss to Michigan State. The Hiiltoppers extended their skein with a 73-70 victory over Loyola of the South last night. The streak will be on the line when the teams meet again in New Orleans tonight. Nagle took over the helm at Marquette last season and hi s team won 11 and lost 15. Although Marquette had 10 lettermen re turning for the 1954-55 campaign, Nagle never figured that his club would improve as much as it has. Last night the Hiiltoppers were hard-pressed to repel Loyola. Mar quette piled up a 36-22 halftime bul?e, but then had to withstand a last-half surge by the New Orleans club. Rube Sehultz led the Marquette attack with 5 points. Action again was l'sht last ni', with most of the major teams still idle due to midyear examinations. Denver broke an 11-game Sky line Conference losing streak by (in-iin' "hsmnjon Col orado A&M 73-69.
