Louis Status Dubious Following Unspectacular Win Over Brion
CHICAGO (AP)—Joe Louis still is wearing boxing gloves, but whether he'll ever use them again in a title bout was as big a question today as ever.
A slim Chicago stadium crowd of 8866 which saw former heavyweight champion Louis score a methodical 10-round "comeback" win over Cesar Brion last night, could agree with Joe's admission that "my timing was off."
Not Talking
Louis, as a matter of fact, isn't even talking about a return match with title-holder Ezzard Charles, who gave him a 15-round trimming at New York last Sept. 27.
"I want two or three more fights, and I want them right away," Louis said after his unanimous, but plodding decision over Brion, 13 years younger than the no-longer dreaded Brown Bomber. "I want to be in tip-top condition before I even think about Charles."
IBC Hit at Gate
The International Boxing club, which again took its lumps at the gate because last night's bout was televised, was to confer today over Joe's next foe.
Joe, 36 and weighing 216 pounds, was a shadow of his former stalking, slashing self in the 10th round. He had Brion in trouble with a furious barrage of lefts and rights. The South American weighed 196.
But as Joe mumbled in the dressing room: "I just couldn't get the combination going." And Brion is the type of fighter Joe used to get the "combination" going against with murderous precision in his hey-day.
Shows No Fear
Brion, 23-year-old South American who showed no fear of Louis from start to finish, conceded that Louis was his toughest opponent in 35 fights. Through an interpreter Brion also said Joe's timing was off, but that he might be able to get it back in two or three more fights.
Referee Frank Gilmer voted 56 to 44 for the former champion, while the judges made it 55 to 45 for Louis. Brion was awarded the fourth, sixth' and eighth rounds.
From the gross gate of $47,420, Joe took a slice of approximately $14,000, including a flat $1000 fee from the radio and television swag.
Varsity Colonists 43-27
Tustin Tomorrow
At first, fumbling as off their football brethren did them, and then occasionally ing wee flashes of the forepected of them, Anaheim's nists walked to an easy corner of a hapless Valencia squad yesterday by a 43-27 count in Anaheim gym.
Obviously overanxious to press, the Colonists could hold only eight points in the first latter. Settling a bit thereafter added 15 more in the second riod and another 17 in the stanza until reserves came finish out the game.
Valencia, had it had any ing power at all, could have up a lead in the early midst but the Tigers, although left to shoot, simply could not find basket.
Anaheim did not shoot w in this opening stage for the ple reason that wild passes gave thumbed ball handling dom set-up an opportunity to a shot. Yet, despite this, the nists were in command through out, never being threatened by the Tigers.
Forward Rel Schmitt co the opening bucket of the after a full two minutes of when he dropped in a one-hit from the corner. It put Anaheim

From the gross gate of $47,420 Joe took a slice of approximately $14,000, including a flat $1000 fee from the radio and television swag.
Forward Rel Schmitt coached the opening bucket of the after a full two minutes of when he dropped in a one-half from the corner. It put Anahad ahead to stay, and that b was joined by single field by Ira Webber, Dennis Denny, Sheldon Welch before the quarter ended.
Welch took command in the end period scoring over half his teams' points in that period with four field goals. It was only the second outburst of the ternoon until center Rafaulkner came along to bat three straight field goals during the third period.
Center Willard Danker was only Tiger (able to) Mit with sixity. He grabbed three goals and seven free throws in the three quarters in which played to take high point for the day with 13 points.
Both coaches dugged up their reserves in the final pitch with the net result of not scoring. The Tigers "mon" quarter 4-3.
The Colonists are expected get a slightly stiffer test row when they face Tustin in AUHS gym. Tiller Coach Sullivan brings an all-letter squad to town, although he be missing 1949-50 all-league ward Bob Harris.
Bob Cramley is the only st back from last year, and he be joined by Ronald Storey, Moore, Manuel Ruiz and Tatum.

Irish to Rule Solid Choice Over Tr
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Notre Dame's football forces fly here late today and Coach Frank Leahy will hear what he doubtless already knows—that his team is a solid favorite to whip Southern California in their 22nd clash on the gridiron Saturday.
Advance reports say the Irish team, no ball of fire itself this season, will be in top shape for the fray and picked to dump the Trojans by 10 or more points in the season's wind-up for both elevens.
SC, unless some of its cripples achieve miraculous recoveries, can not say the same, because Coach Jeff Cravath is still plagued by injured and probable absentees.
Two regulars, fullback Ralph Pucci and left end Hal Hatfield, who could be of great help on defense as well as offense, may see little or no action.
Cravath has several explosive halfbacks, including Al Carmichael and Jim Sears, but unless they get better blocking than in
HAL HATFIELD

DeMolay also warned team managers that all rosters must be in the hands of the league director by Jan. 22. Any team not turning in a roster by that time will automatically forfeit all games until one is turned in.

NEW YORK (AP)—Ted Daffer,
star guard on Tennessee's Cotton
Bowl bound eleven, is the Lineman of the Week in the final Assoiated Press poll of the season.
Daffer's fine play helped the Vols upset Kentucky last week. His constant rushing of Kentucky's star passer, Vito Parilli, brought Daffer a major share of the credit as Kentucky was dumped from the ranks of the unbeaten and untied.
Daffer is the fourth guard to win the weekly award this season. Bernie Lemonick of Pennsylvania, Bud McFadin of Texas, and Les Richter of California are the others.
Openers With Valencia
Over Trojans
previous games this season, they figure to get nowhere against a Notre Dame line that is usually tough.
The Trojan passing has been below par all year and there appears to be no one around who can give the Irish's crack thrower, Bobby Williams, much of an argument in this department.
SC apparently has no receiver, either, who can match Notre Dame's right end, Jim Mutscheller. He has snagged 33 throws and earned 409 yards and seven touchdowns via the air.
Los Angeles fans will remember Bill Gay, the halfback whose spectacular runback of a kick set the stage for a touchdown which gave Notre Dame a 14-14 tie here two years ago.
SC, winner of only one game in eight starts, shapes up as being hard put to narrow the gap in the series with Notre Dame. The Irish have won 13, SC has won six and two games ended in ties.
Bees Show Strong Reserves in Downing Tigers 50-25; Tillers First Road Game
Exactly doubling their opponents, the Anaheim Bees romped to an easy 50-25 win over Valencia yesterday afternoon in the local 1950 season curtain raiser.
Sweeping once down the bench, and then doubling back again, Coach Bill Hunstock found a scoring combination at every turn. The Colonists powered to an opening-minute 6-1 lead, were stalled temporarily when the Tigers took to a zone defense, but soon mastered this to roll unhindered to the win.
In all, 11 different Colonists hit the scoring column for at least two points with Kenny Coen's nine winding up as the day's top effort. Lenny Kolb of the starters was second with eight, but two subs—Dave Moody and Pat Roberts—came off the bench to grab third with six each.
The Tigers were certainly no match for the Colonist regulars, and, as far as that goes, were not even up to par with any of the eventual reserve lineups.
With the onlookers chanting, "Make it 50" Roberts did it with less than a minute remaining After canning two long set shots, he grabbed a loose ball and raced from half court for the desired lay-in shot.
