Two interesting contests are scheduled Saturday night. The Monmouth Eagles will host the Adams Central Greyhounds at Mon mouth, and the Berne Bears will travel to New Haven to battle the Bulldogs. ~ -—oOo—- — county basketball, with the season only a week old, ha* already produced a season freak, one which, however, is drawing unfavorable criticism. That was the stall game at Pleasant Mills Friday night, when the Spartans edged the Berne Bears 5-4. —oOb —- • There were only 11 field goal! attempts made during the entire, game, six by Berne and five by Pleasant Mills, Bodily contact was at a minimum, with only three fouls called on Berne and two on Pleasant Mills. (Might be more pertinent to say bodily movement* was *t minimum.); . — -UoOOM* ■ whiartniq I We have never made any at* tempt to tell any teoach how to run his ball club or second guess tactics. However. Basketbawl feels strongly on this “stalling” gained Many such performances could well either ruin the game of basketball or lead to drastic rules changes; Wonder how many of the fans who paid their admission Friday night would continue to shell out their cash for a continuation of such games. —oOo—- — Reed, veteran sports editor, of the Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette, has this.to say about the affair: “Do the boys who play the game want to play it this way? Do the people who come out to see a game and pay their money for basketball entertainment enjoy this sort of thing? It’s grossly unfair to both, in our opinion. “That leaves it pretty much up to the coaches who order or tolerate such tactics. Do they get any real satisfaction I a a victory? What has been proved ‘(vhen ft’s all over, when the kids have been deprived of the opportunity to play the game the way it was meant to be play ed and the fans who have paid their way at the box office have been deliberately defrauded. "The basketball professionals. | who need customers and more of | them, in order to exist, and know I ing that inaction was tbeir own worst enemy, inserted a rule this year requiring the offensive team to take a shot within 24 seconds 1 Even that may be tod long but j it has helped to speed up the game | immensely.” --0 O0 — Results one year ago this week: Huntington Catholic 60.

American Loop Owners Meet Again Today NEW YORK (INS) — The American Leaghe meets to decide the fate of the, Philadelphia Athletics today and six affirmative votes will send the A’s to Kansas City. The AL session at New York's Commodore hotel, is the fourth in a little over a month regarding the sale of the A’s franchise to Chicago businessman Arnold Johnson for transfer to Missouri or to a Philadelphia syndicate. The league met Sept. 28 with no decision reached, met Oct. 12 to approve the switch to Kansas City if and when the A’s decided to sell out and again on Oct. 28 to reject a 14.000.000 bid to buy the club by a syndicate 1 to eight Philadelphia businessmen. Today's meeting may prove as futile if Washington Senators President Clark Griffith ’ succeeds in mustering enough support to Week the franchise shNt. Griffith and Detroit owner Spike Briggs are openly opposed to the switch and the 84-year-old patriarch of thd Senators has declared he thinks he knows where the third vote is, although Cleveland and Boston are remaining noncommittal. New York, Baltimore and Chicago definitely favor the shift. Griffith had ’ promised to make capital of the report that Kansas City wants out if the A’s fail' to draw a million fans yearly and of the fact that Johnson owns two ball parks. But Johnson, who bought the A’s from Connie Mack and his sons Thursday for $3,375,000, as sured the league Saturday that the Kansas City government is guaranteeing an annual attend-anee-ef--a-million a year for at least three years. - And baseball commissioner Ford Frick stated he saw nothing wrong with Johnson's retaining ownership of Yankee Stadium so long as he had nothing to do w-ith the club Itself. Baseball doesn't permit an individual to have financial interests in two big league clubs.
