LEAGUE TEAMS WANT PLAYERS Boston Red Sox, Detroit Tigers Only Teams Strengthened Chicago. Dee. 13.—LU.R> — Baseball executives continued their frantic search for advantageous player deals today despite conclusion of the annual major TAt'uo baseball meeting. Only two teams, the Detroit Tig i-rs and Boston Red Sox. emerged from the three day session with improved clubs. The Red Sox became a serious contender for the American league flag in 1936 by acquiring Jimmy Foxx, slugging first baseman. and Johnny Marcum, promising young pitcher, from the Philadelphia Athletics. The world's champion Detroit Tigers put out 175.000 lor Al Sim . mens. White Sox outfielder. They were the only major deals. The other transactions can’t conceivably have any bearing on the pennant chase next year. The most disappointed team at the end of the meeting Was the Chicago Cubs Manager Charlie Grimm had hoped to trade Chuck Klein and one of his relief pitchers to the Phillies for Curt Davis, a swell pitcher. The Pn’.lly management insisted on getting cash to boot, however, so the deal fell through. Grimm still wants another starting pitcher and has a feeler out for Fred Frankhouse of the Braves, but so has Branch RiVkey vice president of the St. Louis Cardinals. Rickey tried to make a deal with Boston yesterday which would have involved Frankhouse but a hitch developed at the last minute. Casey Stengel of the Brooklyn Dodgers got several of the club owners excited when he said h<would trade Van Lingle Mungo, brilliant young Dodger pitcher. "But I d have to have a flock of regular pitchers in exchange." he said. 0 Increase in Germany's Sheep BERLIN (U.K)—Germany's flocks of sheep have been increased by a third in the past three years in * WEEK'S SCHEDULE * OF BASKETBALL ♦ ——• Friday Monroeville at Commodores Yellow Jackets at North Side County tourney at Haj Jord Saturday County tourney at Hartford

LOUIS-UZCUDUN FIGHT TONIGHT Joe Louis Heavy Favorite To Defeat Spaniard Tonight New York. Dec. 13. (U.R) One of the most fantastic ring battles ! ever arranged will take place in Madison Square Garden tonight when Joe Louis. Detroit's unbeaten negro heavyweight, meets Paul ' ;lno Vxcudttn. 36-year-old Spaniard.' in u scheduled 15-round bout. The result is a foregone conclus-l lon Louis will wtn in a walk Yet the garden will be packed with n crowd of 18.600 spectators, the "!7rst sellout for the house that Tex Rickard built since the Primo CameraErnie Schaaf bout nearly three years ago. It is a glowing tribute to the 21-year-old negro's ring skill that he can attract a $140,000 gate—largest indoor receipts in seven years and the 12th indoor bout in boxing history to draw more than SIOO.000 with an opponent who is con ceded absolutely no chance of winning. Louis, seeking his 26th straight professional triumph, is one of the long-priced favorites of heavyweight history. The intriguing questions are: <an Louis knock out Paulino? How quick can he do it? The fallowing od.ls rt fleet Just how one-sided the bout shapes up: Louis. 15-1 favorite to win. Louis. 12-5 favorite to win by a K. O. Even money that the referee doesn’t count out Paulino.

The Jackets evidently are in for a tough battle, as North Side recently gave ConI tral a real scare before losing. j oOo — It’s our guess that if the local teams continue to give the fans the hair raising exhibitions we saw at both gymnasiums this week, standing room will be at a premium at both schools before the end of the season. —oOo — With thu changes made in the rules the pust few seasons, both local teams, in common with the vast majority of quintets throughout the state, have abandoned the so-called “slow” game for the fast break. Regardless of personal opinions concerning the two styles ' of play, we cannot argue against the tact that the game this year is : far more attractive from the standpoint of the “regular” fan. And after all. the fan pays the freight. Privately, we have a hunch the boys get more fun out of the game i this year. Seven teams o’ the county will' open the battle for the county championship tonight at the Hart ' ford township gym.
