Ind. (UPI>—A resolution to take judges out of politics was adopted by the Indiana State Bar Association’s House of Delegates here Thursday at the opening of the group’s 62nd annual convention, ■ - The resolution, long advocated by the attorneys, would call for election of circuit, superior, probate, criminal and juvenile court judges on non-partisan ballots. Under existing law, judges run for office on a party ticket. The resolution will be presented to the 1959 Legislature for its consideration. In. a surprise move, the association passed a resolution calling for a reduction in penalties asagainst drunken drivers. It recommended that the penalty for drunken driving be reduced to suspension of driving li-< cense for 90 days instead of the current penalty of one year. It also would change the present law by reducing from two years to life to one year the time a license is suspended for a second offense. The House also voted to increase the tenure of all but circuit judges to six years. They now serve terms of four years, two less than that served by circuit judges. A resolution asking that the Indiana Appellate Court bench be increased from six to nine judges was passed. Nothing was said about the five justices on the Indiana Supreme Court. Removal of judges from politics and a change in tenure would require constitutional amendments. It would have to pass tv|o sessions of the Legislature and a referendum vote at a general election. That would take at least eight years. The association also moved to have the amount to be considered in grand larceny changed from the current $25 to SIOO. Election of officers will highlight today’s agenda.

Daugherty Sees Michigan Slate As Good Team e CHICAGO (UPIk — Michigan State lost one of the finest backs e in the country through injury, Coach Duffy Daugherty said, but a his Spartans still should be a good B football team and perhaps a great one. j Blanche Martin was the victim 1 of a broken bone in his left knee, - suffered in spring practice, and 1 the injury fqrced Daugherty to i revise all his plans. 1 “Martin would be better on one - leg than most backs,” he said, s “In the spring he showed us the finest looking fullbacking live ever s seen. Then he broke that bone.” 5 Only the matter of reserve : strength hampers Daugherty from c thinking he’ll have a great team. 1 “I’m encouraged by the strength 1 of the first unit, but it’s all rela--1 five and we have a lot of unknown c quantities,” he said. > Good Year Seen But this should be no lean year I for the Spartans. Last year’s sec- ' ond team backfield, which out-| 1 shone the regulars, moved up in-. ’ tact wi t h quarterback Mike] 1 Panith, halfbacks Dean Look and • Art Johnson, and fullback Bob ■ Bercich. 1 Daugherty said the first team • line “will be the most agile line ■ we’ve ever had. Seven men up ’ front, with the exception of Dick ■ Barker, were good football play--1 ers last year, and Barker was the 1 most pleasant surprise of spring " practice. He's a strong, rugged 5 kid and had played. fullback, line 1 backer and guard, and he made ’ the switch to end with the most : ease of any player we’ve ever moved.” Other linemen will be end Samjmy Williams. 218 pounds, rated by Daugherty as potentially the “finest end in the country,” tackles Fran O'Brien, 228. and Palmer Pyle, 240, guards John Middleton. 195, and Ellison Kelly, 231, and center Arch Matsos, 191. Won’t Help Scouts Several sophomores could help, notably guard Mickey Walker, whom Daugherty said was the “finest guard-line backer prospect as a sophomore that I've seen since Don Coleman. He s hard--1 nosed, loves contact and hits with f a terrific plump, and he’s breath- • ing right down M id d 1 eto n ’ s : throat.” Other rookies in the “po--1 tential” category were end Fred 1 Arbanas and Jason Harness, and halfback Herb Addedy 2a. runner 1 of the Clarehce Peaks type with speed and power. ' The Spartans will have a slight--Ily changed offense, Daugherty • said, but “California will have to 1 find out about it in our opening game, and the rest of our oppo'fnents can scout us.” Scouting won't help the foes too much. Daugherty said his offense ’ will be "varied,” rather than mul- > tiple, and he listed 15 different formations he can and will use. “The onlv constant thing will be ’ that we’ll have an unbalanced <s Jine on every play,” he said. : Del Flanagan Wins 1 Over Virgil Akins ST. PAUL. Minn. <UPI* — Del Flanagan, a veteran with an ac- ’ curate left hand, upset the big- ’ money plans of world welterweight champion Virgil Akins ' Thursday night by scoring a ■ unanimous win in a 10-round, nontitle bout.

Junior High Teams Play Again Tonight The junior high teams, Purple and Gold, will again play a preliminary football game tonight beginning at 6:30 o'clock. The teams will meet for their second intrasquad game before the GarrettDecatur contest. The Gold team defeated the Purple team in their first meeting last week before the Jackets and Bulldogs battled. The two teams will combine to play New Haven Thursday at the New Haven field, with the game scheduled for 6 o’clock. Rush Wins As Braves Reduce Magic Number , By MILTON RICHMAN United Press International The Braves can wrap up the whole box of biscuits tonight. All they need is a victory over the Redlegs plus an accompanying triumph by the Phillies over the second - place Pirates to clinch- their second straight National League pennant. The Braves, who had to wait until Sept. 23 to win last year, will send rookie Carlton Willey against Cincinnati tonight and if he doesn’t get the job done, they’ve got Lew Burdette and Warren Spahn ready to go against the Redlegs during the week end. The still - hopeful Pirates got "the official go - ahead from Commissioner Ford Frick to order printing plates for World Series tickets Thursday, but the Braves made it a rather empty gesture by beating the Cardinals, 9-3. Thursday night. Big Bob Rush posted the victory that reduced the Braves’ magic number to “two” and increased their lead over the Pirates to six games. Milwaukee and Pittsburgh each have seven games to play. Red Schoendienst paced Milwaukee’s 13-hit attack with three doubles and a single while Johnny Logan and Andy Pafko contributed homers. Pafko hit his with two on in the ninth off reliever Nels Chittum. St. Louis starter Sam Jones was kayoed in the fourth inning and suffered his 12th loss. The victory for Rush, who gave up 11 hits, was his 10th against six losse. That was the only game scheduled in the National League. Only two were played in the American L e e, with the. White Sox. beating tne Orioles, 6-2, and the Athletics defeating the Red Sox, 4-1. Rookie Barry Latman turned in a fine relief effort in helping the White Sox strengthen their hold on second place. He entered the game in the first inning after Ray Moore was knocked out and limited Baltimore to three hits and no runs until the ninth. Then, after walking the first batter, he was relieved by Turk Lown, who retired the next three in a row. Bill Tuttle and Roger Maris got Kansas City off to a good start with back-to-back homers in the first inning, and as it that was all winner Bud Daley needed. The Southpaw knucklebailer held th Red Sox .to five hits. Minor League Playoffs American Association Minneapolis 10, Denver 1 (Minneapolis leads best-of-seven final series, 1-0 >.

Some Coaches May Gamble On Extra Points By ED BAfNSBURY United Press International CHICAGO (UPJ)— Sixth grade mathematics holds the cue on what Big Ten football coaches are going to do about the point after touchdown this year. The new rule provides that if the ball is kicked over the goal post the scoring team gets one point; if the ball is run o rpa point; if the ball is run or passed over the goal line, from its position on the three yard line, it's worth two points. Every Big Ten coach has considered the matter and the concensus is that, ignoring the time to play and the score, there’s a 30 per cent chance to make the three yards by rushing or passing and an 80 or 90 per cent chance to make the kick. Thus the gamble on rushing or passing is that you’ll make six points for every 10 touchdowns, and on kicking that you’ll make eight or nine points. Hardest Three Yards “The chances, of getting one point are improved by the new formation,” Ohio State Coach Woody Hayes said, “because there’s only going to be seven rushing instead of 11. But I feel it's going to be pretty tough to get that three yards.” “I don’t think there are going to be many two pointers,” Ray Eliot of Illinois said. “I think that's the hardest three yards in the world to get. Nobody knows whether it’s a good rule or a bad one. but the losing team is damn near never out of the game.” Milt Bruhn of Wisconsin, Forest Evashevski of lowa and Jack Mollenkopf of Purdue v believed their decision would depend on their success moving tire ball downfield. Depends on Situation “We won’t go for the two points if we didn’t average three yards per play from the 10 yard line in,” Bruhn said. “But we’ll take into consideration the score and the time to play. We developed three good conversion kickers, and then they bring in this rule.” “We’re going to play it by ear,” Evashevski said. “If we can’t move the ball and have a sputtering attack, and we happen to score, I’ll feel inclined to go for the point. If we eat up yardage, I’ll be inclined to go for two.” “We’ll kick early in the game. If we score the first touchdown,” Mollenkopf said, “but subsequently it’ll depend on the situation. If we're having an easy time getting three or four yards, we’ll probably go for it, and if it’s a tough defensive game, we'U probably continue to kick.” More Appeal For Fans Both Murray Warririath of Minnesota and Ara Parseghian of Northwestern anticipated a more wide open attack. “We might move it out to the hash marker because we’ve got Dutch Purdin, who can drop kick, throw and run, and we, could put a pretty good burden on the defense,” Parseghian said. “It’s another thorn, on the coach,” Warmath said. “It’s going to create more spectacular games and give more spectator appeal.” Eliot, a member of the rules committee which approved the change from the old constant one point, summed up the problem neatly. “There’s going to be criticism of the coach,” he said, "but it won’t be any different. If you fail at whatever you try, you should have tried the other.” Over *,,500 Dany Democrats are sold and delivered in Decatur each day.

Oregon Slate, Southern Cal t Meet Tonight By JOHN GRIFFIN United Press International Oregon State, touted in the “early line’ as a slight preseason favorite to win the West Coast berth in the Rose Bowl, tackles Southern California Friday night to touch off the first big week end of the 1958 college football season. Games this week end are the first "real test of the college game’s new extra - point rule—two points for running or passing to a conversion, one point for a place kick — and that adds new spice to the opening program. Detroit - George Washington and Davidson - Catawba are the only other games of note Friday night, but the old pigskin starts taking a lot of new bounces Saturday when many of the nation’s top teams swing into action, including UCLA, Pittsburgh, Penn State. North Carolina. Rice and

Texas Christian. Oregon State tied for the Pacific Coast Conference title last year and, despite the logs of gee back Joe Francis, is expected to be perhaps the strongest of that doomed league’s bowl - eligible teams this year. Southern Cal comes up with a team that relies heavily on sophomores but is rated much faster than last year. > UCLA, still under bowl suspension by the NCAA, is a 7poiqt pick as host to Pittsburgh in one of Saturday’s big intersectional games, although Pitt is reportedly stronger than the squad that had a 4-6 mark last year. In other big intersectionals Saturday: Missouri is a one-point favorite over Vanderbilt in a nationally televised game from Columbia, Mo.; Oklahoma State is favored by 7 over Denver in a regionally televised game; Penn State, rated one of the three best teams in the East (with Army and Navy) is picked by 13 over Nebraska at Lincoln; Texas Christian, highly touted in the Southwest Conference, is favored by 7 over Kansas; Rice, loser in last year's Cotton Bowl game, is picked by 6 to get back on the right trail over Louisiana State, and Texas is a 7- point pick over Georgia in a night gajne.
