HOOSIER PREP QUINTETS SWING INTO HEAVY ACTION

Cubs Get Herman for 4 Players and Cash Bob Smith, Moore, Richbourg and Hemsley Go to Cincinnati for Colorful, Slugging Outfielder; Veeck Hints ‘Big Cash’ in Deal. BY GEORGE KIRKSF.Y I'nlted Pre* Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. Dec. I.—Floyd Caves < Babei Herman, eccentric and hardhitting outfielder, today became the property of the Chicago Cubs in the first step toward bolstering the 1032 National League champions. For Herman, the Cubs gave the Cincinnati Reds outfielders Johnny

Moore and Lance Richbourg. Pitcher Bob Smith, Catcher Rollie Hemsley and a "bale of cash” as President William Veeck termed the financial part of the transaction. Herman, ranked one of the greatest hitters in the National League, is expected to add considerable strength to the Cubs’ attack, which dwindled to a whisper in the world series with the New York Yankees. Herman is the first slugging left-handed hitter the Cubs have had in years. All of their great batters of recent years—Hornsby, Cuvier, English. Stephenson, Hack Wilson—have hit from the right side of the plate. In getting Herman, the Cubs obtained the type of player they needed most, and sacrificed doubtful material to obtain him. Bob Smith, who is nearing 35, won only 4 games while losing 3 last season. Hemsley, a brilliant prospect who failed to live up

Rumor Wolverines to Get Big Ten O. K. on Rose Game

fi)l 1 nitrd Press CHICAGO, Dec.: I.—Michigan's prospects of getting the permission of the Big Ten faculty representatives to play Southern California in the Rose Bowl game Jan. 2 appeared today to have reached a crucial stage. Rumors were flying thick and fast from Ann Arbor to Pasadena that Michigan had officially obtained the Big Ten’s sanction, but Western Conference officials remained silent concerning all angles of the situation. Fear was expressed in some quarters that over-eagerness of Michigan alumni in California, the press and California enthusiasm might react against Michigan's chances of getting the game.

Cruising in Sportland—with Eddie Ash

MIKE KELLEY, ■ proxy of the Minneapolis A. A. champions, evidently thinks the depression is going to lift.. When Ownje Buf>h left the Millers to pilot the Cincy Reds it was the guess around the league that Kelley would curtail expenses by employing a playing manager for 1933, but the veteran Mike surprised the boys by giving the job to Dave Bancroft at a salary reported to be in big figures. Miller

fans got a taste of high life when their team won the pennant this year and President Kelley apparently intends to do his best to repeat in the next campaign. Bancroft is a veteran of many years in the game. He was an ace short stop over a long stretch of years in the majors and formerly piloted

Bancroft

the Boston Braves. Last year Bancroft was coach and assistant manager under John McGraw cf the New York Giants and passed out of the New York picture when McGraw stepped down. Dave saw service in four world series, with the Phillies in 1915. and with the Giants in 1921. 1922 and 1923. He broke in with the Phillies in 1915, and was traded to the Giants in 1920. He went to Boston in 1924 as manager and remained there four years, after which he joined Brooklvn. The veteran returned to the Giants as coach in 1929. a a a Hooster stale Big Ten football fans are Coins to get the frigid go by in the way of Western Conference action next Year. All the state drew out out of the 1931 schedule sack was three games, one at Purdue and two at Indiana, and one of the Big Ten tilts at Bloomington will be the annual Purdue-I. I', struggle. The lone Conference game at Purdue will be with lowa, and at Bloomington Ohio State and the Boilermakers will appear. The Hoosier grid customers are sure to feel as though they have been left out on a limb with their two Big Ten teams playing only a total of three Conference tilts within the state. BUB BOTH Purdue and Indiana will play Minnesota at Minnesota in the fall of 1933. The Boilermakers played up there this year. Moreover. Purdue and Indiana again will meet Chicago at Chicago. Indiana will tackle Northwestern at Northvealern and Purdue will mix with Wisconsin at Madison. Exclusive of

Not only is Herman expected to aid the Cubs on the field, but he is calculated to make his presence felt at the turnstiles. Since Hack Wilson left the Cubs, the team has been without a colorful figure for the bleacher bugs to idolize. Herman is expected to fill that gap nicely. He is 6 feet 4 inches in height and weighs 180. Hin rangy build and keen eye made him one of the deadliest hitters in the league as early as 1928, but he was a comic fielder and base runner. Once he stole second with the bases filled. Another time he was hit on the head attempting to catch a fly ball. But by diligent practice, Herman improved his base-running and fielding until he ranked among the leaders in both phases of the game during the last two or three years. He stole only one base in 1928, but in 1929 he stele 21, in 1930, 18, and in 1931, 17. He broke in with Brooklyn in 1926 after having a record of playing with twelve teams in five years previously. He played six years with Brooklyn before being traded, along with Wally Gilbert and Ernie Lombardi, to Cincinnati last year for Joe Stripp, Tony Cuccinello and Clyde Sukeforth. Herman's batting averages in the majors follow: Year p c t. 1929 Brooklyn 319 1927 Brooklyn ' 1528 Brooklyn ’3lO 1929 Brooklyn ... .331 1939 Brooklyn ' * .39s 1931 Brooklyn '3(3 1932 Cincinnati ' jtofi

An official vote on the matter will not come until Saturday wffien the Big Ten faculty representatives meet in Chicago. The fact Michigan opposed granting Northwestern permission to entertain an invitation for last year’s game and that at least one other Big Ten school is strongly against post-season games is causing concern among Michigan officials who are anxious to get the game. ANN ARBOR, Mich., Dec. I. Optimism over Michigan's chances of meeting Southern California in the tournament of roses football game was indicated today by the disclosure that the Wolverine squad is still in training, despite the fact that its 1932 schedule was completed two weeks ago.

the Purdue tilt, Indiana will play four Big Ten games, three away from home. Likewise Purdue, exclusive of the Indiana date, will perform in four Conference games, three in other states.

off the player's head and hopped over the fence for a home run. non It’s a bad omen for nine Big Ten football teams next year. We mean the announcement that Stanley Fay has been elected captain of the Michigan 1933 eleven. He never has played on a losing team, in high school or college. The consolation for the other nine teams is the fact Harry Newman won’t be back with the Wolverines. POTSY CLARK'S Portsmouth eleven in the National Professional Football League is entitled to the name of Iron Men. The league player limit is twenty-two, but Clark has gone along with sixteen warriors and is in second place in the eight-team lctp competing against big fcity machines, all of full-limit power. The former Butler of Indianapolis coach keeps his little group of small-towners in top physical condition and replacements are few. non I "'ROM the looks of that deal between the Cincy Reds and Chicago Cubs the Queen City team surely is hard up for ready money. Smith, Moore. Richbourg and Hemsley all were tagged as on their way out following the close of the 1932 season. Hemsley's conduct at Chicago interfered with his pastiming and aroused the ill will of the club officials. Perhaps Manager Bush can change the youth's habits. In that event Hemsley is almost certain to become a star. However, jolly Rollie went haywire at times with two clubs. Pirates and Bruins. It is said at Cincinnati that Babe Herman hit into too many double plays, despite his ability to smack the ball for .326. You can bet your hat Herman will be a shining light at Chicago and a strong gate attraction. non Jim Murray, former American Association umpire, lost out in his law suit against Thomas J. Hickey, A.

Crowley Looms as Probable New Grid Coach at Fordliam

BY HENRY M’LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Dec. I.—No sooner is one burning sports problem solved than another bobs up to take its place. Not so long ago it was, “who is going to manage the Cincinnati Reds?” That one was answered by the appointment of Donie Bush. Now it's “who is going to coach those Fordhams at football in 1933?” Whoever gets the job will be in a lot sweeter spot than Bush, for Donie, strive as he may, is likely to wind up behind the front porch and seven other teams. But the fellow who gets Fordham, be it Warner, Neyland, Stuhldreher, Joy, Madigan or Crowley, stands a swell chance of snatching the national championship in his first year at the school. A national championship for Fordham next year is entirely within reason. Fordham. once it quit trying to use two and three complete teams a game, got going this year and “went to town.” During the second half of the season it was on a par with the best clubs in the country, as witness its successsiv? defeats of St. Mary’s, Oregon State and N. Y. U. Os all the some forty odd men who wore varsity uniforms this seas*n, only three will be lost by graduation. And only one of these, quarter back Zapustas, was a regular starter. Around these parts it is believed that Jimmy Crowley of Michigan State will be the boy to succeed the ailing Frank Cavanaugh. Also that Cavanaugh, despite his ill health, will move on to Lafayette, with

It would seem only fair that he be given a shot at running the whole show'.

Local H. S. Quintets May Play Home-and-Home Tilts

BY DICK MILLER Indianapolis high school basketball teams, within the near future, may play a round-robin schedule of home-and-home engagements, it was hinted Wednesday at a meeting of city school athletic directors at the Severin. A complete round-robin bill has been arranged for freshman teams this season as an experiment. Although all frosh games will be played in the afternoon, officials feel they can check the attendance, interest and other features to determine if such an arrangement would be acceptable for varsity play. Such an arrangement probably will mean elimination of the annual city tournament and would increase gate receipts, officials hope. The athletic directors believe the cutting of the basketball season to sixteen games and the f ootball campaign to eight games by Paul Stetson, superintendent of schools, and school board members, may prove a big blow to the athletic funds. Thep hope the round-robin plan may bring in the extra cash which will be lost. The Indiana High School Athletic Association allows eighteen basketball games. A poll of the athletic managers indicates that, due to the reduced number of football and basketball games allowed in the two main revenue producing sports, the ultimate result may be the abolishment of baseball, track, golf, tennis, crosscountry running and other minor and intramural contests that are supported entirely by the athletic fund and which are not aided in any way by taxation.
