By Eddie Ash Kelley Wants Old Race Plan Restored tt tt tt Millers Threaten Trouble in League m tt tt Hoosier Net Teams Mix in Thrillers

W HEN the American Association magnates adopted their revolutionary arrangement of determining the 1933 championship by a playoff series between high club in the west and high club in the east, it was announced the vote was Bto 0 in favor of the proposal. The vote was taken at the big minor league meeting in Columbus early last month. It now develops there was opposition to the plan. Larry MacFhail, president of the Columous Red Birds, was credited with inventing the idea, and apparently outtalked the league as he shoved his pet measure through. Newspaper men were given little chance to think over the matter as MacPhail said: "There it is and it has been ratifiied.” Mike Kelley, president of the Minneapolis Miliers, now comes to bat with a loud squawk with the belated word that he opposed the change in the first place. The Miller prexy said Sunday he is going to campaign against the play-off proposal and endeavor to nave it rescinded when the league holds another fireworks session in Chicago late this month. Kelley probably is too late with his counter-attack, but it will be interesting to watch the outcome of his driive. He doesn't like the idea of the possibility of a fifth-place club winnihg the title from a team that finished first during the regular season of 154 games. History of the league shows the chance is extremely remote for a team running fifth to land in the proposed seven-game play-off, but the possibility is there, and Kelley goes on the old theory you can' take nothing foi granted in baseball. In the 1929 A. A race, the clubs finished as follows: Kansas City, St. Paul, Minneapolis, Indianapolis, Louisville, Columbus, Milwaukee, Toledo. The Indians, fourth, were high team in the east, but were thirtythree games behind Kansas City, pennant winner and high in the west. Kansas City won 111 games and lost 56; Indianapolis won 78 and lost 89. Under the MacPhail 1933 system, Blues and Indians would have met to decide the title in best four out of seven games. St. Paul, second in 1929, won 102 games and lost 64, and was eight and one-half games behind Kansas City and twenty-four and one-half games ahead of Indianapolis. The McPhail plan makes no provision for a second place team in the play-off if it is not high in its geographical group. tt tt n tt tt tt SAYS INTEREST CAN NOT RE MANUFACTURED LAST season Minneapolis, the pennant winner, was high in the west and Columbus finishing second, was high in the east. Under the MacPhail plan that will operate in 1933, there would have been a sevengame series last fall between the Millers and Red Birds and the series winner would have represented the American Association in the little world series. Therefore, the Birds, if lucky, could have been in position to walk off with the league crown in seven extra games despite the fact Minneapolis finished far out in front after a hard fight over the 168-game route. Mike Kelley wants to stick to the old rules and fight it out from April until September which will compell every club owner to put forth his best efforts to possess a contender. Supporters of the MacPhail proposal say his play-off plan will stimulate and prolong interest on the part of fans and players, but Kelley claims interest can not be manufactured except by the old-fashioned way of trying to win the pennant from the outset and sink or swim during the long grind. If the two groups of A A. teams, east and west, finished the 154 games, that will be the regular schedule this year, with four of the same group in the same division, the fifth place club would hop over the fourth, third and second and compete for the official flag in the play-off. The "remote danger” would come to the surface if the regular race ended in this manner: Columbus, Indianapolis, Toledo, Louisville, St. Paul, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Kansas City. Columbus would be high over all and high among eastern teams. St. Paul, finishing fifth, would be high among the western teams. The play-off, therefore, would place St. Paul against Columbus. tt tt tt Ban STATE “BIG THREE” FIVES GO DOWN THE so-called ‘ big three” of Hoosier state intercollegiate athletics, Purdue, Notre Dame and Indiana, engaged in some strenuous basketball battles Saturday night, but it was a bad evening for the trio. You will have to go back a long way in the history of the college net sport to find an upset to equal the one that knocked ’em dizzy at Purdue when lowa rallied to beat the Boilermakers, 35-33. Purdue held a lead of 15 to 4 at one time. Up at South Bend Butler nosed out Notre Dame, 27-25, in a wild thriller, and down at Bloomington Wisconsin defeated Indiana by a whisker in an overtime tilt, 38-37. The three contests supplied the fans with an extra share of entertainment and no doubt there were many of the customers too limp to speak much above a whisper at the conclusion of action. When it comes to the basketball sport, Butler is entitled to have it made a “big four” in this state instead of a “big three.” Tony Hinkle is a first flight cage coach. tt tt St tt tt tt HERE are some items picked up at random by the United Press: Billy Arnold, auto speed ace, offered the loan of two racing motors by Gar Wood, plans to assemble a car and take a shot at Sir Malcolm Campbell’s straight-away auto record. Billy hopes to make the run down Dayton's sands sometime this year. . . . Craig Wood, the big blond who has been burning up winter golf courses, smokes a pack of cigarets a round, dotes on mystery stories and fast automobiles. . . . Johnny (Tarzant Weismuller was once a tailor's assistant, cutting pants instead of capers. . . . Andy Kerr. Colgate coach, rewards back field men who make a touchdown and linemen who block a kick, with a hat. . . . Pie Traynor says Lefty O'Doul, Brooklyn outfielder, ,s the smartest batsman in the National League . . . Braves field. Boston, sagged so much this fall under the thunder feet of the professional footballers that 240 cubic yards of loam have been used to lift its face for the 1933 baseball season. . . . The French Academy of Sports gold medal and ?5.000-franc purse, awarded annually to the athlete who turns in the outstanding achievement, is expected to go to Jean Borotra, the “Bounding Basque” of tennis.

The Mineralite team of Chicago rolled a total of 2.977. but lost its match to the Barbasol quintet of Indianapolis by a margin of MS pins, the Barbasol team rolling 1,050, 1.019 and 1.053 for a score of 3,122. Frank Hueber finished with a brilliant 278 game to total 690 and led the local boys. Johnson foiled 661, Pritchett. 643, and Fehr, 609. For the visitors Steers was best, a 258 finish giving him a total of 665 Fliger rolled 608. The match was rolled on the Tritchett alleys. Frank Hueber gave a wonderful exhibition of bunching strikes, twenty of his twenty-two coming in clusters of nine, seven and four that gave him the 690 total despite six open frames. The game was broadcast over WKBF. this being the first time in the history of local bowling that a match game went on over the air route. The program was well received, but the little fat boy, Ralph Elvin. would insist on calling it the one-two pocket at the start. Rtiell Moore helped out. however, and he soon located the onethree. Harrv Steers, the Windy City yet who rolled 665 for the visitors, has a record that has never been equalled in the bowling game. For twenty-one seasons Steers has rolled in the fast Randolph League in Chicago, and has never missed a game. Frank Wright, who is carrving one of the best averages in league play in Chicago. failed to get his ball to working, and as a result stopped at 542. a disappointing showing to the large crowd that expected great things from this boy. Chuck Klein was the official scorekeeper for the match. Mike Morrissey. Ownie Bush. Connie and Harry Bason were also interested spectators. ' Immediately following the team event. Johnson and Hueber rolled Fliger and Kartheiser. a special doubles match, and it certainly was a thriller, the local boys emerging with a win bv a margin of eight pins i 304 to 1.296 Hueber continued to show the same ability to locate the pocket

City Pugs Seek Top Both Baker and Brown Want Final Spot on Armory Bill. A controversy has arisen between managers of the two local fighters scheduled for action on Tuesday night's "triple ten" mitt program at the armory.

Wisconsin, Ohio Lead

Badgers and Buckeyes Only Unbeaten Big Ten Quintets. By United Prex CHICAGO. Jan. 16.—Wisconsin and Ohio State, top teams in the Western Conference basketball race, find their clean records threatened tonight. The Badgers, owning three straight victories, invade Evanston to tangle with Northwestern's powerful Wildcats, and Illinois meets Ohio at Columbus. Other games tonight bring lowa and Chicago together here and Minnesota against Purdue at Lafayette. After dropping their opener to Illinois, Northwestern recovered rapidly and dealt out drubbings to Purdue and Chicago. The Wildcat defense has tightened and Captain Joe Reiff has reached his old time scoring stride. He piled up 29 points against Chicago Saturday. Wisconsin, with an all-sophomore lineup, managed to eke out a onepoint overtime victory at Indiana. Northwestern is the favorite tonight. Purdue Hopes Fade Illinois is notoriously strong at home and erratic on foreign courts. After two victories at Champaign the Illini lost to Michigan at Ann Arbor, and tonight face the troublesome problem of meeting the Buckeyes at Columbus. Purdue's hopes of repeating in the race were hammered down by lowa Saturday, but Minnesota faces trouble trying to hand the Boilermakers their second straight defeat at Lafayette tonight. Chicago’s weak team is not expected to give lowa much opposition. Competition fades this week end when all but four teams enter examination periods. Only Two Unbeaten Illinois invades Evanston to play its return game against Northwestern, and Michigan meets Chicago at the midway fieldhouse on Saturday. No Big Ten team has played over three games, but only two—Ohio State and Wisconsin—are undefeated. Northwestern, Michigan and Illinois are tied with two victories and one defeat each.
