Oregon to Play Louisiana State f Sport Slants By Alan J. Gould (Associated Press Sport Editor) It and when they are brought to gether, whether In Miami in the win ter or the Madison Square Garden Bowl next spring, the two Maxes of the heavyweight division, Schmellng of Germany and Boer of California, ehould furnish one of the beat slug gtng parties we have Been In many moon. It seems ' Questionable whether Max Baer has Improved as con sistently and effectively as has Max . schmellng within tne past year and a half but the rangy Callfornlan certainly has fought his way back to a contending position. Baer was - Just a big good- natured clown, with a round-house wallop from the hips, when ne first came to the Big Town. Hpent more time thinking about his haberdashery, his high-powered cars and good times than he did about his fistic technique. Tho stories of Boer's eccentrici ties outside the ring made good copy, for a while, but his equally erratic work In the ring soon left the customers as well as the ex fluenced by necessity or real anv perta somewhat cold. - Whether In bltlon, he apparently has settled down to do some earnest scrap ping. Until some one . comes along, however, to prove . otherwise, the conclusion Is Inescapable that Schmellng is the best heavyweight In the rlne today. He lost the world championship to Jack Sharkey on a highly questionable decision. Even the pro-Sharkey element conceded Schmellng was on the up grade and Sharkey decidedly on the down. Tne margin 01 superiority In the German's favor should bo even more -decisive In another year, during which Sharkey will had no Intermediate action ever. have what- FOOTBALb AGAIN College football, moving back In- GAMH ARRANGED TODAY I PORTLAND, ore..

The an up" an almost complete new cast nouncement was made here today oy nugn Kosson, Oregon graduate. of satellites this season, In every section, outstanding players of the last two or three years, who consistently grabbed the headlines, have disappeared Into the ranks of the coaches, the movie stars or the struggling young business men. A small per centage will try to keep their fame alive on the professional gridirons. This may bo quite satisfactory to the deflationists but It doesn't help tho graduate managers and pub licity men trying to stimulate box office business. It takes more than a few broken field dashes to find replacements for players like Alble Booth, Barry Wood, Mnrchle Schwartz, Ernie Plnckert, Jerry Dnlrymple, "Cat fish" Smith, BUI Morton, and Gene McEver. . manager, This year's game will be played Dec. 10 at Baton Rouge. The return game will be In Portland. Negotiations had been In progress for several weeks. KKNTNKIt NT ILL A ROUND Ernest "Pug" Rentner of North western Is the only member of the 1931 All-America back fie Id cast still In the collegiate gridiron picture this fall. The WUcat star figures to be one of the hardest men to stop around the Big Ten whirl but until the Michigan game he was kept pretty much under wraps by Head Coach Dick Hanlev. He was sent Into the lost stngeB of the opening game with Missouri and exhibited enough stuff to satisfy the critics In Chicago that he's just as formid able an all-round threat as he was last year. The Big Ten, one of the best balanced football groups In the country-over a long period of years, anticipates another hot fight for the championship all the way. There's always plenty of the un expected In this fast company.
