QUICK KICKS By CIIET SMITH Written for NEA Service When Bronco Nagurskl was help ing rival clubs keep hospital bills at an all-time high, the Chicago Bears' fullback had evervbodv in the National League thinking out ucienses to slop mm. A week before this one tea was scheduled to tackle Oeorge naias- Daa boys, its coach an nounced to his hired hands that they would play a normal game and forget about concentrating on iiHgursai. This seemed to disturb a re. crult halfback, who was expect ing special schooling on the sub. Ject. He had never even seen the uronc. Finally, the day before the game, the rookie asked his coach, plaintively. "Will you at least tell me what Nagurskl looks like and how he cuts, so I'll know where to look lor him in the second, ary?" "Don't worry, young man." the coach replied. "You won't have to g looking for Bronco. "He'll find you." Tom Davies, an All-America back of the 1920' who went on to hang up a not undistinguished record as a coach, likes to tell about the day his Western Re. serve team was playing a south, western opponent. "We had a halfback," recalls Davies, "who was lightning on the getaway. He could start as fast as any boy I ever saw. But on this occasion he got me Into an argument with the referee that I lost. "Several times during the first half we were penalised for back, field in motion, with this speed ster guilty. Between halves I thought I'd apeak to the official about It. " 'I don't think my player Is beating the gun,' I told him. 'He's Just so quick on the break that he fools you.' "The referee never batted an eye. " 'Coach.' he said, 'I'm not pen alizing your boy for being in mo tion I'm penalizing the other 10 players for delaying the game.' " Herman Hickman recalls the day he put a thin Yale team on the Held to meet Vanderbilt. It was In 1948 and Red Sand ers, now running the UCLA pow erhouse, was coaching the Com modores. Before the game, Sanders and Hickman shook hands and talked for a bit. Passing off a few com ments, Sanders turned to go. "May the best team win," he Mid. The erudite Hickman saw n chance here. "You mean, Red, may the bet ter team win," he smiled. "No, I mean best," Red Sand ers answered. "We've got three of them and we're gonna use them all." Bums Debating On Alston; Robbie On Block SAN JUAN.

A magazine piece convinced Gormley, a stock Irishman of 49. that Smith might gel somewhere if handled properly. There had been a long time between pavdavs. He had to be kept from jumping out or rings, among other things. When Gormley decided to take over, he didn't fool with any of the small fry.

That's what Trinidad's Hector Constance was saying Saturday after beating favored Ralph (Ti ger) Jones and his enthusiasm was unbounded. "The crowd cheers me here," said the puzzled but happy 26' year-old welterweight contender. "In England tney booed me ior fighting this kind of & fight." Hector was referring to his close quarter exchanges with the aggressive but sluggirh Tiger in the last half of their 10-rounder nt Madison Square Garden Fri day night. Through the first five rounds, the rangy West Indian fought a retreating, side-stepping, counter punching fight. Jones would come In and Hector would move, pop ping his incoming rival whenever ho could. For this type of fight, he trailed on the scorecards of two of the three officials. But from the filth on, Constance played it Jonesy's way and beat the Tiger at his own game. Con stance had been trapped and whaled at the ropes in the llfth frame. Apparently he learned his lesson. He swept the seventh, the eighth and ninth rounds from the puffing, tired Yonkers, N.Y., mid dleweight to gain a split decision in the almost clinch-free bout. There were no knockdowns but a lot of leather was thrown. The fans liked it. Referee Al Berl and Arthur Susskind each voted for Con stance, 6-4. Judge Frank Forbes had It a draw, giving each five rounds and six points. The AP had Constance ahead, 6-3-1. Mountaineers Defeated By Yakima Valley YAKIMA UI Yakima- Valley Junior College Capitalized on an intercepted pass and a recovered fumble for two touchdowns and a 13-0 first half lfad, then went on to defeat Eastern Oregon Col lege of Education, 19-7, in a non ennterence football game Friday.
