Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Dec. 18.—A committee supposedly representing the Nacoms, a secret society at Columbia, charges In one edition and denies In the next that the football team at Columbia largely Is professional. This obviously is what is or should be known as the Nacoms shift. I am Retting a bit bored and I imagine the readers are too with all of this vague, unsubstantiated talk about professionalism in college athletics. I think it is about time that all the boys took their curls down. In other words, are Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, and others of his distinguished ilk paying the half backs or not? In these around-the-corner-and-under-the-tree controversies, I have noticed that the heads of the universities usually decide to remain steadfastly stiff lipped. Why can't they say yes or no once in a while? On the broad, common sense basis that the Dr. Butlers of the country ought to know more about what is going on in their universities than the student managers or the student editors, I would be mote Inclined to give ear to their remarks, but for some reason these gentlemen seem to prefer to Ignore campus rumblings, and generally on the score of dignity. From this are you to deduce that they don't know what is going on? A FEW days ago, Chancellor Brown of New York university was compelled to face a very embarrassing situation. Overnight practically the university had gone pious in an athletic sense, and Chick Meehan, the footbal coach, who had been brought in for the specific purpose of building up a big time eleven, was shown that he had no other alternative but to resign. I thought the chancellor faced this situation with a commendable frankness in , admitting that the university had made mistakes and that It hoped to profit by them in the future To be sure, he chancellor could have been more outspoken and said that the experiment of stressing football for gate receipts and university publicity was in error, or at best, crudely done, but chancellors have their own chaste phraseology for such meanings and in this instance the net result was satisfactory enough. I haven’t the slightest doubt but that there is a lot of proselyting and recruiting among the colleges, all of them. I have the notion, too. that the all-America football player does all right by himself, whether he Is playing with Millsaps or Yale. But somehow this doesn't outrage my sense of ethics or values. When I say this I do not mean to Include such colleges—and I believe they con ititute a very small minority—as are frankly semi-pro-fessional In athletics. Os these colleges. I say let them play among themselves, tar against tar. and may the best salaried team win.

Off The Backboard

THERE are a few teams in Indiana who are among the front-runners year after year. Two of ’em are Anderson and Muncie. It naturally follows that when these two rivals get together, they should provide one of the season’s major attractions. * ft m That’s Just what fans are expecting when the Indiana and Bearcats wind on and let fly over at the Wigwam city tonight. Mancie’s title defenders are unbeaten. Anderson has been humbled by Alexandria and Tech. But there are many who will tell yon that tonight it belongs to the Indians and that Fete Jolly’s Mann

Few Replacements Needed, Is V iew of Manager. Connie Mack

BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Tress Stall Correspondent CHICAGO, Dec. 18.—Any intention on the part of Connie Mack to break up the Philadelphia Athletics, dethroned world champions, as he did his 1914 team after losing to the Boston Braves isn’t reflected in the list of new players acquired by the 1929-30-31 American League tilte holders. A compilation of the new American League players for 1932, shows the Athletics have added only eleven new men to the team which showed signs of deteriorating in the world series against the St. Louis Cardinals. Detroit and New York, each with twenty-two new players, top the list, while the Athletics’ small group places them sixth. St. Louis is last, having auded only four new men. While Connie Mack hasn't gone in for quantity, he has picked four players who are expected to bolster the Athletics. It would not be a surprise to see two, or even three, of this new quartet move into regular berths. Three of the four were with the Portland Pacific Coast League club last season and the other with St. Paul, American Association champions. The A s purchased outfielder Eddie Coleman and Joe Bowman, right-handed pitcher, apd recalled outfielder Bob Johnson from Portland. From St. Paul they bought first baseman Oscar Roettger. The other seven players acquired by the A’s are decidedly uncertain quantities. Roettger batted .357, made 217 hits and drove in 121 runs. With the 37-year-old Bing Miller

PITT FIVE SET FOR PURDUE AND BUTLER BATTLES

Panthers Get Tests Conquerors of 1. U. Face Boilermakers Tonight; Here Saturday. By Times Special LAFAYETTE, Ind., Dec. 18—Refreshed by a brief rest, Pittsburgh’s eastern championship court squad was ready for its second battle with a Hoosier foe here tonight. Purdue’s Boilermakers, ranked at the top of the Big Ten pre-race title favorites, will attempt to avenge a setback handed them at the Smoky City last year, in tonight’s encounter with the Panthers. In its first Hoosier stop, Doc Carlson’s invaders nosed out Indiana U, on Wednesday night in an overtime encounter. Wooden To Play Johnny Wooden, who missed last year’s battle with Pittsburgh due to an injury, will be in action tonight, and with Harry Kellar, dim- ' inutive forward, will lead the Boilermaker attack. Purdue’s impressive early season performance largely is due to the improved play of Charles Stewart, the big center, Ray Eddy, forward, and Ralph Parmenter, back guard! All are juniors and have shown great improvement over the form displayed last year in their first “big time” competition. Wooden and Kellar, co-captains, have continued the pace which made them all-Big Ten choices last year. Midget Forwards Shine W. Kowallis and Lawry, midget forwards and co-captains of the Pittsburgh five, will lead the attack tonight. They starred against I. U. Ochsenhirt, Smith and McCamants will complete the starting lineup. After tonight’s struggle, the; Panthers will move into Indianap- 1 olis, where they take on Tony Hinkle’s fast-stepping Butler tossers Saturday. Blue Builds Defense A long drill on defensive formations to stop Pittsburgh’s speedy basket snipers featured Butler’s drill Thursday for Saturday’s tilt with the Panthers at the fieldhouse at 8:30. A scrimmage with the reserve squad topped the drill. A light session today will wind up the Bulldogs’ preparations.

and boys are in for a lacing of first-class quality. * * * Up at Anderson, they’re forgetting Amos ‘n Andv. From now on its Amos n’ Evvy. Amos Staggs finds ’em in the grade schools, and Evvy Case makes championship teams out of ’em when they get to high school. At least that’s the way it’s supposed to work out. tt a THIS Everett Case is an unusual chap. There isn’t a Hoosier basketball fan who hasn’t heard something about Case. Maybe it’s good, maybe bad—but they’ve had their eardrums tickled with some sort of tale about the ex-Frankfort mentor, who annually produces championship contenders.

slowing up, there is an excellent chance for Coleman, who batted .358 and was the runner-up for the Pacific Coast League batting title, or Johnson, who batted .331, to win the right field berth. Roettger is expected to give Foxx hot competition at first base. Bowman, who completed his third season in organized baseball last year and won 18 games and lost 11 for Portland, may hang on to the pitching staff which will again depend- largely on Grove, Earnshaw, Walberg and Mahaffey. The number of new players acquired by each American League team, exclusive of exchanges of players in recent trades, is as follows: Detroit drafted none, bought ten, recalled twelve. The Yankees drafted one. bought eight, recalled twelve and signed one free agent. Cleveland drafted none, bought nine, recalled nine. Chicago drafted one, bought three, recalled seven and signed three free agents. Washington drafted none, bought five, recalled eight. The Athletics drafted none, bought four, recalled six and signed one free agent. Boston drafted none, bought four, recalled four and signed two free agents. St. Louis drafted one, bought three, recalled none. CHESTERS’ FIVE COPS By Times Special HILLSDALE, Mich., Dec. 18.— Piling up a big lead in the first half, Manchester college hardwood team thumped Hillsdale here Thursday, 26 to 18. The invaders staged a late rally which accounted for eight points in the last six minutes, but could not overcome the big Chester margin. Davis, Welsh and Mattern led the victors.

Bad Break

BEING a finished golfer, Horton Smith knows as well as the rest of them that the left hand dominates the golf swing. But that doesn’t mean you can break your right wrist and still get along in the money in these winter tournaments on the coast. Horton fractured his the other day while helping Joe Kirkwood get his car out of tight parking place. He was leading the qualifiers in a $7,500 ’Frisco tourney at the time, so the injury pained him in more than one place. He is shown above with the costly fracture. FRANK UPHOLDS SPORTS President of Wisconsin U. Urges Better Intercollegiate Athletics. By United Press MADISON, Wis., Dec. 18.—When a compromise between “professionalism and sand-lot play” is found, intercollegiate athletics will be on a firm basis, Glenn Frank, president of the University of Wisconsin, declared at the annual football banquet Thursday night. Frank characterized football as the “banquo’s ghost that sits forever without moving at the head of the table of education.”

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Phils Drop Big Arlett Giant Outfielder Is Traded to Baltimore Club for Scarritt. By Times Special PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 18—A deal that will surprise many baseball sharpshooters was completed by the Philly Nationals today when the giant outfielder, Russell (Buzz) Arlett, was traded to the Baltimore Internationals so: outfielder Russell Scarritt. Arlett came to the Phililes last winter from Oakland of the Pacific Coast League where he had played thirteen years. Scarritt, formerly of St. Paul, was with the Boston Red Sox at the start of the 1931 campaign, batting .154 in ten games. Scarritt was released to Chattanooga of the Southern Association where he batted .295 in 106 games. The Lookouts used him in a deal with Baltimore and he batted .256 in eleven games with the Orioles. In 1930, in 113 games with Boston, Scarritt batted .289. Arlett batted about .312 for the Phillies this year in 120 games. Arlett is 33 and Scarritt 28. If a cash sum exchanged hands in the trade, it was not disclosed. Scarritt bats lefthanded and Arlett is a “turn” hitter, batting both ways. Buzz is one of the heavyweights of baseball, standing 6 feet 4 inches and weighing more than 225 pounds.

Stove League Chatter BY EDDIE ASH ’

THE big leagues have begun to tone down on depression talk and are taking a more cheerful slant now that the magnates are back in their home towns. The owners lost their grip at the Chicago powwow and put out too much economy conversation and declarations. According to John Heydler, National League prexy, there will be no wholesale slashing of player salaries and the big boss predicts some clubs won’t cut a single player and perhaps will boost wages here and there. n Only the highest salaried boys will be affected, Heydler says, leaving the average pastimer out of the path of the reduction ax. The umpires are smiling again. The threat to go back to the two-umpire system in the majors was marked off the list of economy moves and was shelved. The moguls decided it would be unwise to let go of a lot of experienced men. tt tt tt Hans Lobert, star infielder of days gone by. has been appointed manager of the Jersey City International League team. The Dutchman was a real ace in his day and one of the most popular big leaguers of all time. The big job in Jersey City is to keep the ball park intact. Chairs are kept locked up and are brought out only as tickets are sold. Petty thieves have the club officials in hot water all summer. PAUL DERRINGER. St. Louis Cardinals’ youthful right hander, has joined the colony of ball players wintering in Sarasota, Fla. That’s the charming spot on the Florida west coast where the Indianapolis club does its spring training. The Cardinals train at Bradenton, a few miles north of Sarasota, and Derringer will fish, golf and swim until the Cards go to camp. Several big league and Class AA pastimers are wintering in Sarasota. The thermometer batted 82 down there the other day. tt tt tt There is some talk in Boston of a trade of catchers between the Braves and the Chicago Cubs. Rogers Hornsby is an ardent admirer of A1 Spohrer and Gabby Hartnett enjoys widespread popularity in Beantown. He was brought up in that district. Hornsby was compelled to bench Gabby several times this year when the big fellow losct his batting eye. The Bruin catcher outbatted Spohrer, however, hitting about .280 to about .240 for Al. tt it it Pittsburgh and the two Philadelphia clubs are criticising the action of the big league directors in shaving the 1932 schedules a full week. The number of games to be plaved remains the same and the Pennsylvania teams are up against it for choice dates to make up for the loss of Sunday dates. Baseball on the Sabbath is not permitted in the Keystone state. tt tt tt THE National League was unusually active in the player market this year. Exclusive of recent trades, a checkup on players drafted, bought and recalled by the eight senior loop clubs shows the following: The Cubs drafted two, bought eight and recalled six. The Braves drafted five, bought four and recalled four. Brooklyn failed to score in the draft, bought one and recalled eleven. Cincinnati drafted one, bought seven and recalled two. The Pirates drafted one, bought seven and recalled two. Philadelphia drafted two. bought three and recalled four. The Giants drafted two, bought five and recalled one. St. Louis passed np the draft, bought one and recalled seven.

Demoted

Russell (Buzz) Arlett THE veteran heavyweight outfielder, Buzz Arlett, was a long time reaching the majors, and now he is the minors again, after one year of service in the big show. The Phillies traded him today to Baltimore for outfielder Russell Scarritt.

Brooklyn has become enterprising and desires to increase its holdings outside the majors. Negotiations are on with both Atlanta of the Southern Association and Jersey City of the International loop. The Dodgers have asked for “lowest terms.” Hartford is a Dodger farm and will oe retained. That club developed some promising talent this vear. The success of th£ St. Louis Cardinals in chain store baseball has led other teams to reach out and copy the scheme. If Brooklyn gains control of the Crackers it will be necessary to leave Johnny Dobbs in the pilot seat or pav him off for a full year. His contract extends through 1932. PITTSBURGH Is on the lookout to bolster its catching staff. The Pirates were trying to deal with Cincinnati for Clyde Sukeforth before the star Red backstop was injured while hunting. It will be some time before ’’Sulcie” will know if he will be able to stay in baseball. Other Cincy receivers are Asby and Manion, the latter drafted from Milwaukee. tt tt tt Lefty Gomez set a remarkable record for a young hurler this year. Winning twenty-one games against nine losses represents super pitching. The Yankees bought him in 1930. optioned him to St. Paul and 1931 was his first complete sear son in the majors. The young southpaw turned in an earned run mark of 2.63 and that sets him oft as the real goods. He worked 213 innings and saw service in forty games. He is the answer to the Yankee fans’ prayer for another Pennock. SC H WARTZ TO MISS TILT Irish Half Back Acc Out of Charity Game With Injury. By United Press EVANSTON, 111., Dec. 18.—Dick Hanley, Northwestern football coach, said today he had not yet determined who would be named to replace Marchy Schwartz, Notre Dame’s all-America half back in the East-West shrine charity game at San Francisco New Year’s day. Schwartz has been advised not to play for more than two months due to a back injury. COHEN CUE WINNER Ruben Cohen defeated Joe Fox, 50 to 4G in 100 innings in the state three-cushion billiard , tournament at Cooler’s parlor Thursday night. Both are new entries in the title play.

The Tigers took the lead at the start and were in front all the way, stopping several Quaker rallies. The invaders were in front 11 to 8 at the intermission.

DEC. 18, 1931

Georgia finally was given the edge ; in consideration of the schedule he ; had to face, which included ten j hard games and almost no respite from one week to another. Wood at Quarter The comment of the judges on their other selections is as follows: j Naturally, the back field battle was close. II Shaver had been placed at quarter. ! back. Gene McEver of Tennesse would have drawn the full back assignment. Morton ; of Dartmouth was nearest Wood in the east, but Wood rose to greater heights at times and his all-around effectiveness as a team director was more consistent Ray Stocker of the Army and Crickard of Harvard were two other outstanding stars. It has been a long time since any allAmerica back field had such a diversity of skill as Rentner. Schwartz and Shaver can show. Each of the backs selected was forced to face a heavy schedule. The battle for line positions was Just as keen as the battle of the backs. The final selection brought out one remarkable turn —this is probably the heaviest all-America line ever selected, and yet one of the fastest and one of the most aggressive. The average weight of the line from tackle to tackle is 215 pounds and vet there isn’t a slow-moving man in the group. I In addition to the eleven men named for the awards, the following players were judged to be “of all-America caliber,” and were considered in making the final choice: HALF BACKS—Booth. Yale: Steck'-r. Army; McEver. Tennessee: Piuckert. Southern California: Zimmerman. Tulane: Auker. Kansas State: Kov. Texas: Mason. S. ?!. U.: Crickkard. Harvard: Murnhv.
