By Eddie Ash Willard Brown Pushes $lO Up to S6OO a 8 a Luque Tells How He Disposed of Kuhel
'yyiLLARD BROWN, Indianapolis junior welterweight, went west by south and grew up with the turnstiles.
The country already had grown up, but the state of Texas was virgin territory and a promised land for the box fighters. Boxing was legalized early this year in the Lone Star state, and Brown, accompanied by his manager, Arol Atherton, moved in with the fistic pioneers, locating at Dallas. In his first bout in that city on May 17, Brown’s share of the purse was SIO.BO. The sport fans were dubious. Willard kept plugging, however, put on a winning streak and in his seventeenth match in Texas last Thursday, meeting Tracy Cox. also from Indianapolis, Brown’s share of the purse was better than S6OO. On top of that \\ illard established himself as an idol in Texas rings and he’s going back after a short vacation here. nun a 8 8 BROWN'S Texas engagements were distributed among three cities, Dallas. Dennison and San Antonio. He won five of his seventeen scraps by knockouts and his only defeat was by Tracy £ox, on points in ten rounds. In each conflict Brown appeared, the gate showed a healthy Increase and where there wasn't much money in the house, due to low admission fees, Atherton usually picked up extra money by supporting Brown with coin on the line. In a bout with K. O. Castillo at San Antonio, Mexican sports backed Castillo with all of their available cash and Brown not only beat Castillo, but his manager made a “cleaning” in the betting ring. Willard knocked out the well-known Battling Shaw in four rounds and later Cox met Shaw and took down the decision, putting the former junior welter champ on the floor three times. a a a a a a Manager Atherton said Brown is punching better than during his many bouts in Indiana and is taking a rest now merely to recover from a bruised hand. He will meet Erwin Berber at New Orleans Oct. 30, and there also is a feature match pending with Tony Herrera at Dallas or Houston on Oct. 24 or 25. Promoters of Dallas, Houston and San Antonio are running a race to land a return clash between Brown and Cox. Manager Atherton said today that each fighter agreed to a return encounter when articles were signed for the first affair, if the loser desired. Cox was awarded a belt and crowned the junior welter champ of Texas after he outpointed his Hoosier rival at Dallas. 8 8 8 8 8 8 The flashy Brown, only 20 and showing few marks resulting from trading punches, has been moving in the social set at Dallas and has 'been a popular figure around the country club there and at the Dallas Athletic Club. a a a a a a JOE CRONIN won the American League pennant in his first year at the helm and was entitled to be appointed again in spite of the wrong hunches he played in the world series. Owner Clark Griffith announced the new contract is for three years at “about $25,000 yearly.” Few know exactly how managerial contracts read, however. For example, Gabby Street of the Cardinals was dismissed during the past season and was not paid off for the entire year. It was disclosed his agreement carried a ten-day dismissal clause, relieving the club of a full year's payment in the event he was fired. This information was kept a secret when Street was employed. Joe Cronin deserves a measure of credit at that. He took all the blame of his team’s world series mistakes upon himself and suffered through the agony of defeat. Joe took no older members of the Senators into his confidence and when his club was bumped off in four out of five games, none of the responsibility was shifted. a a a a a a If Bill Terry expressed satisfaction with his new contract as manager of the champion Giants it’s a dead cinch Owner Charlie Stoneham was sent to the crying room. Reports say the agreement calls for $40,000 annually for five years. Terry has a reputation for driving hard bargains and $200,000 for five years has all the earmarks of typical Terry terms. He declined to accept a drastic “depression cut” on his 1932 player contract and kept his salary up to $20,000, marked down from $23,000. Moreover he led the player rebels against the way the club was being run and finally was made manager before midseason, when his contract wis boosted to $30,000 for serving as player pilot. Some New York writers ti-.ought it was a joke, but Terry went right ahead and got the boys clicking. His player deals panned out well, but according to Buffalo reports Terry got a break on Blondy Ryan, shortstop. Ryan played with the Bisons in 1932 and it is said he hounded Terry at the winter baseball meetings and practically sold himself to the Giants after using all of the oratory at his command. a a a a a a ADOLFO LUQUE has explained how he struck out Joe Kuhel on three pitched balls in the tenth inning of the final series tilt that gave the championship to the Giants. New York was leading, 4 to 3, two Senators had been erased and the tying and winning runs were on base. The veteran Luque said he noticed Kuhel was standing back in the batter’s box and pitched on the outside corner for the first strike. Backing up between pitches, and never turning his back on the hitter, Luque saw Kuhel edge closer to the plate. The Cuban pitched inside for the second strike and again Kuhel shifted positions, moving back. Adolfo then pitched to Joe outside, the batter swung and missed, and the series ended.
Joe Cronin Signs to Manage Nats 3 Years; Gets Pay Raise
By United Press WASHINGTON, Oct. 11. Joe Cronin, the “boy-manager” w’ho piloted the Washington Senators to the American League championship in his first season at the helm of the club, will manage the Nationals for the next three seasons. The brilliant shortstop will leave Thursday for San Francisco with a new three-year contract in his possession, signed yesterday. Cronin’s salary was not disclosed, but President Clark Griffith emphasized that the Senators’ unexpected STATE PRAISES BUSH Bit Times Special TERRE HAUTE. Ind.. Oct. 11.— “He’s the best quarter back we’ve had in years.” That is the verdict of Arthur L. Strum, Indiana state director of athletics, on Charles Bush, the sophomore quarter back flash from Marshall. 111., who w'ill lead the Sycamores against Manchester college at North Manchester next Saturday afternoon. Bush scored the winning touchdown against Evansville last Saturday with a twenty yard run in the final minute of play. Coach Larry Marks plans only light drills for his State eleven this week.

Bush has been on the injured list for ten days.
What? No Change in 1933 Football Rules!
BY JOE WILLIAMS Times Special Sports Writer NEW YORK. Oct. 11.—About the first thing I do at the beginning of the football season is get out the rule book to see what has happened to the game since I last sat in the press box. It has always been a most exciting adventure, something like reading a first novel. You never could be sure just what you were in for. Invariably the plot was changed sharply. What had been football as you knew it the year before became quite a different slice of kidney and you had to start all over getting the hang of the thing. But something has happened. Either the gentlemen who write the rules reached the end of their inventive powers or else they became physically exhausted. At any rate the old thrill of picking up the book and finding anew gamt to master no longer exists. Only one radical change has been made In the 1033 rules and this
defeat in the world series had not shaken their confidence the slightest in Cronin, and that he was receiving a “substantial increase.” Joe’s salary during* the past season is understood to have been about $17,000. Cronin, who w’ill celebrate his twenty-seventh birthday on Thursday, had shaken off his world series depression entirely and smilingly told reporters he was “mighty pleased" with the new' contract. He even predicted another pennant for the Senators and a different world series result in 1934. Cronin said he w’ould make any changes during the off-season that might help his club, but he didn’t know of any changes now that would improve it. He explained, "You know' we have a pennantwinning club right now." 100 BLUE CAGERS DRILL Approximately 100 candidates answered Coach Kenneth Peterman's initial call for basketball at Shortridge. Jack Berns, veteran forward of two years, was the only letterman present. The following from last year's team were out: Bryant. Burns, Kitzmiller, Merrell, Kolb. Sutton and Stevenson. Hobson. a newcomer who w T as a letterman at the Masonic Home at Franklin, reported. BROI'ILLARD IN ACTION BOSTON, Oct, 11.—Lou Brouillard will defend his world's middleweight championship for the first time when he meets Vince Dundee, Baltimore veteran, in a fifteenround bout at Boston garden on Oct. 30.
! happens to be of such a simple i nature that even I can understand ; it. When the ball goes out of bounds ; or becomes dead within ten yards of the side line it is brought back and put in play at a spot ten yards from the side line. The purpose is to eliminate piling up In an effort to push the ball carrier out of bounds and to end the old custom of automatically wasting a first down. I rather regret the change, because I was always able to call this play in advance. It was the *one play in the game I seldom was wrong on. a a a ONLY those who have watched the evolution of football from a simple problem of advancing the ball from one given point to another. pitting power against power, to the involved patchwork of technicalities it is today, can appreciate what an epochal event this one lone change in the 19C\3 rules represents. “S

Bulldogs to Drill Defense Another lengthy drill on defense was carded for Butler’s gridiron warriors today as they wound up hard practice for the battle with Evansville college under the arcs at Fairview bowl Friday night. Coach Fritz Mackey is attempting to bolster the center of the line, where minor injuries are handicapping varsity performers.

The- Butler back field is all set. with Cecil Ray, Ralph Weger, Jim Stewart and Bob Stewart in the starting quartet.

The Illini I back field will be: Quarter back, I Beynon; half backs, Lindberg and ! Froschauer; full back, Snook. MADISON. Wis., Oct. 11.—Bobby | Schiller, half back, may replace I Captain Hal Smith at full back i against Illinois this week in an eff fort to speed up the Wisconsin attack. Coach Doc Spears emphaj sized speed on both offense and deI sense in yesterday's workout TWO REGULARS HURT By Times Special OAKLAND CITY; Ind.. Oct. 11.— Two regular members of the Oakland City college eleven probably win be missing from the starting lineup against Hanover Friday night. Robert Kell, stellar end, suffered a severe shoulder injury when tackled during yesterday’s scrimmage. and Johnson, left guard, is out with a hand injury. Whitfield, who scored two touchdowns in short order against Cehtral Normal last week, is being moved up to a starting assignment [ in the Oaks back field.
Still, it probably is too much to hope that it means the game has finally reached a point of legislative stability. Habits are not easily cured and the urge of the rules committee to take the game apart at frequent intervals to see what 'makes it tick has long been a habit verging on fanaticism. Because of the boisterous character of the game and the high physical hazards involved. I suppose it is necessary in the interest of safety to make certain changes from time to time, but it is a curious fact that it is the only game known to sports that is continuously in a state of readjustment. Some of the more vital changes have been distinctly beneficial. The forward pass, for one. Nc matter what the old-timers say, I can imagine that in the days of the flying football was a terrible thing to watch. It must have been as wearing on the spectators as the Java men who played it. ;

Tiger Roy Beats Rosy Kid as Ring Fans Yawn for Action
BY EDDIE ASH Times Snorts Editor
Promoter Bill Miller’s effort to bring back boxing to Indianapolis was producing results at the Armory last night until the main go was reached. After that it was just too bad. Tiger Roy Williams, the Negro middleweight from Chicago, had too much class for Rosy (Kid) Baker of Indianapolis and it w'as ten rounds of yawning for the customers. Baker w'as eight pounds short of weight and also short of reach. Williams tried at different times to give the fans a, “show,” but Baker’s crouching tactics took the fun out of the affair. It was merely a w r orkout for the Chicago Negro over the ten-round route. He cuffed lefts and rights when Baker straightened up and Rosy was on the receiving end of a lot of blows. As Williams said wdien the ring fans turned loose the Bronx cheer: “What can I do? He won’t stand up and spar.” Old Class Tells Baker evidently tried his best to save his reputation, but against Williams it was a lost cause. He was in there with a superior foe. The semi-windup was a thriller while it lasted. Tennessee Lee knocked out Tony Conger in the fourth round. The boys started in swift fashion and the first round

Trade Talk

First trade talk since close of the 1933 baseball season involves Bill Cissell, Cleveland shortstop and sec-ond-baseman, left, and Lloyd Brown. Red Sox southpaw’ pitcher. The Indians, without a single lefty, are seeking Brown, and are whiling to part w'ith Cissell to get him. — m WOLVES WORK LIGHT ANN ARBOR, Mich.. Oct. 11.— Fearing injuries to his regulars, Coach Harry Kipke has abandoned scrimmage for the Michigan squad this week. Captain Stan Fay and Estell Tessmer continue to divide time at quarter back, and both will play that position against Cornell Saturday.
JUST the same, I am not naive enough to believe that all the changes were bred of altruism and humanitarianism. The professional coach with his ballyhooed system has been responsible for more than one change primarily designed to increase his own strategic position. This comes under the head of smartness. Which would be all right if it definitely bettered the game. In most instances, it did little more than bring confusion to players and spectators. It rewarded coaching ingenuity and individualism without helping the general scheme. The lateJCnute Rockne in private always charged that the increasing restrictions on the line shift were leveled at him by envious competitor coaches. I am not among those who holu that Rockne rewrote the history of the game, but he was a pace setter—and a pace setter generally is a target.
pulled the fans out of' their seats, but the pace set finally w’arped Conger and he started going down for a rest in the second session. He w'as flattened the first time with a I volley of Lee’s blows and the second j time it looked as though Referee! Clark gave the visitor a break as j well as the customers. It was during another Tennessee rally and from the viewpoint of the ringsiders Conger dropped to the floor for a rest without being hit at the moment. Under the rules this is disqualification. Fling In Towel Conger w'as on the floor twice in the third stanza and at the start of the fourth his corner advisers decided Lee W'as too tough, and when the lad on the losing end swooned at the outset, the towel w'as tossed into the ring, giving Lee a knockout victory. Results of the other conflicts of the evening were as follow's: Four-round curtain raiser: Eddie Allen. Negro middleweight, outpointed Louie Miksell in four rounds. Allen substituted for Noble Wallace and carried the fight to his opponent and won going away. Miksell w r as all in at the closing bell and sat in Allen’s corner until advised that he belonged on the other side. Fox Scores K. O. Bernard Cangany, another substitute, made a courageous effort at the start of the milling w ? ith Jimmy Fox, but ran into too many punches and passed away in the third round. Cangany made one wild flourish, fell short and after that Fox knocked him spinning. Frankie Gierke was on the losing end in the six-rounder with Paul Waggoner. The latter - started fa& and finished strong. The boys earned their “cakes” at that, but both lacked a punch. Attendance at the show fell below expectations, about 750 ring worms taking a chance. Most of the fans stayed in their seats rather than embarrass the maulers in the feature event, but there were a few who w'alked out after the early rounds TABLE TENNIS MEET DATES ARE CHANGED The city high school table tennis tournament has been postponed for one week.

Coach Noble Kizer still is experimenting with his forward wall, which failed to function to his satisfaction against the Bobcats last week. The Gophers boast a powerful line, while the Boilermakers appeared none too strong on defense last week. Blocking and passing plays also have been polished by Kizer. Purdue’s attack had a marked lack of precision against Ohio, but will be in much better shape for Minnesota. Kizer probably will rely on passing for most of the Purdue gains.

Irish Fear I. U. Passes Blocking. Defense Stressed by Anderson in Practice. By Times Special SOUTH BEND, Ind.. Oct. 11.—A defense against Indiana passing plays was to be perfected today w'hen Notre Dame varsity warriors scrimmaged against a yearling eleven using Crimson formations, in preparation for Saturday's struggle at Bloomington. In practice sessions this week, Coach Hunk Anderson has stressed blocking, holding the ball and pass defense, the three chief faults which handicapped the Irish in last Saturday’s scoreless tie upset with Kansas. Considerable progress has been made in blocking, and the Notre Dame plays have clicked better in the drill sessions. Anderson also intends to prevent a repeating, of last week's fumbling, in which seven bobbles robbed the Irish of scoring chances. On pass defense, however, the Irish still lack consistency. When the shock troops were turned loose against the frosh yesterday, they scored a three-touchdown victory, but the rhinies completed six out of fifteen Indiana aerial attempts. Another surprise may be dished out by Anderson next Saturday against Indiana at Bloomington. Nick Lukats, senior star, and Andy Pilney, the ball-toting sophomore sensation, both listed as left half backs, were tried at calling signals yesterday and may direct the Irish attack against the Hoosiers Saturday. Lewis, O’Neal On Mat Card Buck Lewis of Anderson has been signed to meet Speedy O'Neal of Shelbyville in a supporting bout for Friday night’s / wrestling show at Tomlinson hall.
