In the opposite bracket, a hard-hitting dark horse, Meda list Louise Suggs of Atlanta, Ga., collided with the 1944 runner up, Phyllis Otto of Atlantic, la. Miss Germain, a tousled haired lass from Philadelphia, was gambling a shot at her third straight amateur crown as she squared off against the Los An geles veteran Who 'trimmed her in the finals of the last two Women's Western .Open tour neys. Dottv's most recent humilia tion at the hands of the versatile Babe was a 4 and 2 defeat in the 1945 Open at Indianapolis in June. Last year, Mrs. Zaharias crushed Miss Germain, 7 and 5, in the title match of the Western Open at Park Ridge, 111. .

Oddly, the Jersey redhead who likely will be outweighed by 10 pounds, may be the sen timental favorite of the crowd. Before meeting Rocky, Cochrane was regarded in some quarters as a "cheese" champion. His gallant showing on June 29, however, demonstrated he was "no bum." His followers in creased when he offered no alibi. "I iust got nailed, that's all." he said referring to his 10th knock out alter being floored in the ninth. . For Sale . .

When the two grapplcrs col lide head-on it will be for all the gore, glory and gold that the grappling grab-bag can provide and consequently neither of the boys will stop short of mat may hem. When Dusette attempted to shake hands with Jack in the ring last week, Lipscomb an swered with a snarl and a kick which didn't tend to breed any feeling of brotherly love be tween the two bitter rivals. The glance that Dusette shot at Lips comb after this incident would have put the chill on a full grown grizzly bear and Georges is not likely to forget when the two musclers square off tonight. Added police protection will be provided for the safety of all concerned as Lipscomb has vowed that Dusette will leave the ring in only one way and that's feet first.
