By Tim*/) Bpeciol FT. MYERS. Fla., March 3. Pinky Higgins, star third sacker. has joined Jimmy Foxx as a holdout on Connie Mack, manager of the Philadelphia Athletics. Higgins is rated as the coming outstanding hot corner guardian in the major leagues. He had a good season in 1933 and was a timely hitter. Doc Cramer, young outfielder, accepted terms last night. He refused to report for the first spring training workout here. Mack said today his offer of $15,000 to Foxx is final. Jimmy is demanding $25,000 for the coming campaign. The veteran leader of the Athletics offered his star slugger $15,000 and a bonus of SIO,OOO if the team drew a million fans at home this year. Foxx answered with the statement that he can not picture box office

Whenever Johnny Townsend, Tech’s star center, is blockaded by two or three men of an opposing team, keep your eyes peeled for some trickery. The big Tech pivot man has a weird knack of skipping the ball to other members of the Tech quintet to let them pile up the score while he is roundedThis trick has made Hutt, Hair and Woerner all threats to any Tech opponent that decides it’s worthwhile to use a couple of men to keep Johnny covered up. The east side lads were reported to be in fine shape today as they w r ent into battle in the sectional semi-finals against Shortridge’s fine team.

Mai Stevens Takes Up Gridiron Job at N. Y. U.

Violets Will Maintain Old Policy of Football De-Emphasis. BY JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. March 3 —Dr. Marvin A. (Mai) Stevens, one of the swellest fellows in the football business. seems to have jumped from the frying pan into the fire. Mai Stevens, who was head coach at Yale for five years and president of the American Football Coaches' Association for the usual one-year term, has accepted the appointment of head football coach at New York university. He succeeds Howard Cann, who resigned on Feb. 1 (after a bombardment from the alumni), but who remains with N. Y. U. as assistant director of physical training and basketballl coach. Cann is sending his unbeaten Violet quintet against the unbeaten C. C. N. Y. five tonight. Cann was a victim of gridiron circumstances. He succeeded Chick Meehan late in 1931, when the school turned ‘ lily white,” swept by a wave of reform, and decided to do away with b*r-time football; with proselyting, subsidizing and the like. Under the de-emphasis program Cann found it difficult to win football games in 1932 and 1933, so he resigned under pressure. It seems the alumni demanded winning football teams regardless of any reformations. In announcing last night that Dr. Stevens had been appointed, the chairman of the board of athletic control. Professor Philip O. Badger, emphasized that N. Y. U. had not changed its policy regarding deernphasis. In accepting the N. Y. U. job Stevens said: 'T am heartily in sympathy with the university’s present athletic policy. I expect the squad to play to win and to exhibit a rugged and intelligent brand of football.’ Friends figure that at least five teams on the 1934 N. Y. U. schedule may cause Stevens some embarrassment. They are; West Virginia Wesleyan. Lafayette. Carnegie Tech, Rutgers and Fordham.
