Potent Alumni Squad Favored Tomorrow
Thirty-four KU grads will take the field at 3 p.m. tomorrow in an effort to whip the varsity in the annual varsity--alumni grid clash, and with two professionals, one former pro, and more than a half dozen all-conference men, the alums will be favored by one or two touchdowns.
The alum roster rose to 24 today with the late addition of 1952 center Bud Roberts, who played against the grads last spring when the varsity won 14-0. In the first engagement in 1951, the alums came out on top 13-6.
Coach J. V. Sikes' lineup, with five freshmen slated to start, will find the going tough against the veterans. The varsity will have a slim one-pound per man heavier line, 204 to 203, but will be at a slight weight disadvantage in the backfield, averaging 180-pounds to the alums' 185. The alumni defensive unit averages 208 in the line and 181 in the backfield.
Five men counted on to help next year will miss the game. Fullback John Anderson will be confined to the sidelines because of a mildcussion he suffered in last week's intra-squad contest, and co-captain
BOB HANTLA
and guard Bob Hantla may see only limited action because of a twisted knee.
JOE FINK
Veteran co-captain end Morris Kav, halfbacks Donn Hess and Frank
Cindrich, and guard Dick Knowles are participating in track for coach Bill Easton, and halfback John Konek has spent the spring with the baseball team.

Rocky Favored to Whip Jersey Joe
Chicago — (U,P) — Rocky Marciano, the first perfect-record heavyweight champion and perhaps the hardest puncher in ring history, will make his first defense of the title tonight against wily old Jersey Joe Walcott, who was defeating "The Rock" when knocked out last September.
Despite Walcott's magnificent performance while losing the title, Marciano was a lop-sided favorite
at 17-5 today. And there was little or no support for the Camden challenger from writers or boxing men.
Unbeaten, untied Marciano, who slides in slugging with both fists, will try to prove that his knockout at Philadelphia on Sept. 23 was no mistake—that he can again blast the 39-year-old "miracle man" into the resin dust, despite the latter's ring guile and explosiveness.
It's Almost Time to Go Home--the netters defeated Missouri here the same day, 5-2, and should repeat tomorrow. Wednesday, against Washburn, KU received its worst liking of the year, 1-6, at the hands of the CIC champions. Gene Powell, No. 1 man in the con-

Their contrasting styles and prowess under the Philadelphia stars provided one of the ring's all-time great battles, and they could achieve another classic tonight during their 15-round fight at Chicago stadium for sport's most valuable trophy—the million-dollar crown.
Balding, bull-shouldered Jersey Joe—father of six children—may be keyed to the highest determination pitch of his 22-year career as he tries to become the first man in ring history to recapture the heavy-weight crown. He desperately wants the glory and gold attached to such a victory for his family and himself.
Whether the ancient warrior from Camden, N.J., will attempt to repeat his knockdown of Rocky in the first round and try for a kayo in every session thereafter is one of the big questions of the contest.
