Bowerman was unable to aay today
whether the playing season will get

ily outlined the following factors
that will have to be overcome:
Lack of paasera to take the place

lack of sparkplugs to take the place
of Kunzman and Smith; laek of ex

How much chance would an oral
narlly strong man have in a tussle
with a professional wrestler? . Not
much, we'd imagine, and Johnny Boos
says none at all. Recently, while
working In gold mine with his
brother while on a vacation in Idaho,
Boos was called upon to furnish en
tertalnment for a large group on
holiday excursion.
The blrgest and strongest man
In the outfit was chosen as his
opponent. A gent named Elmer
Bchraft, a miner, who tipped tne
beam at 240 pounds, Rous dis
posed of him In Just six minutes.
Then they threw In another 240
pounder, who herded sheep In his
off moments. Johnny downed
him In five minutes. That's 480
pounds of man in 11 minutes, not
a bad record.
Before leaving the wreatling subject
we'd like to make Just one plea to
Promoter Mack Llllard. That la
match Dude Chick with someone who
can give him a tussle either Boo
Montgomery or Joe Hubka. Either
one would make a good match, and
whoever Is chosen we'd like to eee the
other have a go with the big cow-

possible.
