Chicago Race Tracks
Make House Cleaning
"CHICAGO Ifl A campaign by
two major Chicago race tracks to
rid themselves of hoodlums who
make book on the premises has
netted a blacklist of more than 30
men now barred from the race
tracks.
The Chicago Tribune said in a
story Tuesday the individuals
have been barred from Arlington
and Washington Park t r acks
where they were reported to have
been doing a business at the rate
of $100,000 a day." The two tracks
have summer meetings of about a
month's duration.

Football
Notes
NEW YORK lD With the
football season turning into the
second and most important half
for the ambitious clubs, a con
ference title, a trip to a bowl and
national ranking can be lost by
a missed signal, an offside, a
turned ankle or a bad bounce in
the open.
It is therefore refreshing as well
as entertaining .to read what
George Mason, Alabama tackle,
engineering student and young
father, has to say: "Nothing wor
Ties me and when It does I don't
think about It."
A philosopher of the same mould
is West Virginia corffch Art (Pap
py) Lewis. His Mountaineers are
unbeaten and he was asked if he
thought the club could make it
through the season without a de
feat .
"Honest." he said, "I'm not
worried about anything right now
except VMI for next Saturday and
the grocery bill."
Notre Dame coach Terry Bren
nan may not have realized It but
he hung a big funeral wreath
about the neck of two-platoon foot
ball when he explained why six of
his regular muscle-guys played CO
minutes against Michigan State
in Saturday's 20-19 victory. Said
Ttrry:
"We had to go with men who
had the most experience and once,
we were functioning as a unit I
didn't want to change."
Not specialists, just rugged
blocker and runrr"'; won for
Notre Dame. Seventeen men did
all the work.
Georgia Tech coach Bobby Dodd
explains the many football upsets
this season, saying: "Constance
exchange of game motion pictures
makes scouting thorough and cuts
down tremendously on the surprise
element."
This figures because Stanford's
Chuck Taylor explained his 0-12
defeat to UCLA with the remark.
"They did what we expected them
to do but they did it better and
more often."
Pro Ball
Becomes
Pass Crazy
CHICAGO W Professional foot
ball teams have become pass
crazy in the last decade, but there
is nothing like a balanced attack,
says George Hulas, owner-coach
of the Chicago Bears.
Halas sholud know. He saw his
Bears shackle San' Francisco for
30 minutes Sunday only to fold un
der the 49ers' devastating ground
game.
Are the pros returning to run
ning? "They never left it," said Halas
in an interview. "Any team that
has a good ground game will util
ize it and San Francisco has a
great running game."
GOOD PASSING
"But remember, they've got
some pretty good passing. We had
thorn bottled up Sunday but they've
got balance and it paid off."
The Bears stymied San Fran
cisco's passing attack in the first
half and walked off the field with
a 11-14 lead. The 49ers. although
outplayed, had scored once on an
Intercepted pass and again when
Hugh McElhenny broke loose for a
long touchdown run.
Other Ulan those two plays, it
was strictly Chicagos game. Y.
A. Tittle's passes weren't clicking
and it looked like a bad afternoon
for the Californlans.
Then San Francisco, with rookie
Mauris Duncan leading, pounded
the left side of the Bear line mer
cilessly and scored a quick 17
points in the third quarter to Ice
the contest. The 49ers won 31-24.
And they did it by running.
McElhenny, John Henry Johnson
and Jet Joe Perry left the seers
who cry "You can't run in pro
football" with their jaws hanging.
WITNESSED
Not since the days of George Mc
Afee. Hugh Gallamau and Norm
Standlee had Bear fans witnessed
such running power.
Before the nightmarish quarter
had even ended. Bear rooters want
ed to know why their team wasn't
running.
Aside from the fact that he has
no McElhennys, Johnsons or Per
rys. Halas said, "We've got a good
passing team and we've done well
with passing."
The Bears have two victories In
four games and unquestionably will
improve last years record of three
triumphs in 11 games.
per said, are ex-convicts believed
connected with the city's' gambling
operations.
The individuals were ba r r e d
permanently after track police
said they were seen soliciting and
accepting bets on races, the Tri
bune said. The practice of making
book at race tracks deprives the
federal government, the state and
track owneis of thousands of dol
lars in revenue.
Among the barred men were
several previously arrested on
charges in Chicago. These include
Joseph (Crackers) Mendino, 45;
Frank Cerone, 36: Rocco Colucio,
58; John McDonald: Charles Eng
lish, and his brother, Sam.
OUT-OF-STATE
Several out-of-state Individuals
also were among those listed as
barred by the newspaper.
The Illinois State Racing Board
last week said it had found "some
indication of gangster .presence"
in horse racing In the state.
Board chairman Paul,Seidar said
his agency had been investigating
the situation and reports that mob
sters owned thoroughbred horses,
own stock in tracks and raced
horses under the names of
"stooges."

Avid Fan
MARENGO, 111. uH ' Edward
Zenk, 28, considers himself one
of Notre Dame's most avid foot
ball fans.
He attends every home game
of the Irish for which he can get
tickets and always carries a port
able radio.
Zenk is blind.
"All my life I've followed Notre
Dame football, ne saia. ' I piayea
guard on Uie Marengo High School
team and dreamed of going to
Notre Dame. A month after 1 was
graduated in 1043 I was drafted.
In April of 1945. a Jap grenade
exploded in front of me. That was
outside Manila. I haven't been
able to see since then.
Since 1946 I've attended every
Noire Dame game I can. The
hardest thing about it all Is getting
tickets.
"It's difficult to explain what
a big kick I get out of the games
although I am blind. Sure, I could
listen to the radio at home. But
there's nothing like taking my
portable along and sitting in the
stands with the crowd, and listen
ing to all those cheers. That color
is something you can t get in the
living room of your home with a
radio.
Zenk married In 1946 and the
couple has two boys, eddie 7, and
Billy, 5.
Zenk s wife attends all games
with him.
She knows a lot about football,
but when we go 'to Notre Dame
I prefer to listen -to the report on
the radio rather than have her
tell me what's going on. But at
Marengo High School games, she's
right there beside me giving me a
play-by-play.''
Zenk worked in a factory after
his marriage, then operated
bowling alley. At present he owns
tobacco shop.
