By Eddie Ash Earl Bruce High Picker in Tough Field mm* He Scores 25 Winners on Nov. 17 Games

was a tough group of games to handicap last Saturday and it was hard going for the Perfect Picker Petes. Thirty games were listed on the selection blank for Times readers to wrestle with and high picker was Earl E. Eiuce, 2211 East Tenth street, who turned in twenty-five winners against only five misses. Next high picker was Jim Stahl, 1510 South Meridian street, with twenty-four right and six on the wrong side of the books. Mr. Bruce, therefore, was “tops over all” in the pJck ’em league on the college “problems ’ of Nov. 17. It wtas quite an accomplishment to land right side up with so many toss-up games to tackle. Three shared the honors of picking twenty-three winners against seven miscues. They were Cornelius D. Feld, 116 Monument Circle, Lester H. Frost, 1004 Southeastern avenue, and Lee M. Morse, Newcastle, Ind. aaa a a a THE high ‘'expert'’ of the week. Earl E Bruce, miscued on the follow - ins five canv” Pauw\ Wisconsin-Illinois, Yale-Prince-to®.

Many of The Times’ amateur pickers scored twenty-one wins, many others twenty and then the experts fell off into the "heavy loser groups. TdQ many long shots went over last Saturday to give the average prognosticator a chance to clean up on the field, but its a lot of fun, anyway, to tackle a tough field. In other words, it’s good brain exercise. Several of the upsets last Saturday were predicted by the Picker Petes, including the tough ones of Wabash-De Pauw, Corncll-Dartmouth, Wisconsin-Illinois and Yale-Princeton. ana a a a THE Perfect Picker Pete slate for games of Nov. 24 will be arranged today and will be published in this column tomorrow. Many of the secondary colleges have closed their schedules, but there will be a pretty fair “slate” offered. The score blank will appear in all editions tomorrow. Be sure and clip it because it may not appear again.

Purdue has managed to pile up a substantial edge in the thirty-six games played. The Boilermakers have tallied twenty-one victories against eleven for the Crimson, and four of the tilts have ended in ties.

Boxing to Reopen Here Under "Merit System 9 New Plan. Suggested by Al Feeney, to Be Tried Out in City Under Direction of Lloyd Carter. BY VERN BOXELL Boxing, “dead” here for the last two or three years, is going to get “a shot in the arm” and if the hypodermic works as its sponsors predict, the beak-busting sport may return to the high popularity it once held.

A1 Feeney, state athletic commissioner. and Lloyd Carter. Hercules A C. promoter, are the •‘doctors" who hope to revive the fisticuff industry. Their plan is a simple one. which should prove pleasing to both customers and clouters. It has been urged nationally by Jack Dampsey and tried successfully in the state of California. A1 Feeney suggested that the arrangement be given a test here. It involves a series of weekly mitt cards, with ten four-round bouts involving all Hoosier battlers, staged at prices. Action Will Be Keynote Mr Feeney believes this type of entertainment will provide more action than the present system of “name" cards. In addition to bringing back entertainment for the loyal nnc followers of the city. Mr. Feeney points out. the plan also will provide a little cash for the Hoosier knuckle-dusters who have been living on coffee and doughnuts lor less for many months. A merit system is included in the plan, with the young fighters working their wav up in the matter of wages and program spots on their ability as crowd pleasers. Action will be the keynote. The rounds will be of two and one-half minutes’ duration, and the boys will be forced to step lively throughout the four stanzas to gam places on future cards. Poor showings will resul* in the offenders being dropped from the programs. Hoosier Talent to Be I'sed For the opening program. Mr. Carter hopes to line up several of the prominent local fighters—Scotty Sootten. Paul Lee. Henry Hook. Jimmy Fox—with others coming from Terre Haute. Evansville, Vincennes. Muncie. Anderson, Ft. Wayne, Gary. Clinton and other cities. Mr. Carter has indicated that the first card will be staged soon at the Armory, with reasonable prices scheduled. If this type of fistic entertainment proves successful and it all depends on the fighters and the cash customers—Mr Feeney and Mr. Carter have indicated that

GRIMM AND TERRY CONFER ON PLAYERS

Pilots of National League Clubs Expected to Discuss Deals at Louisville Session Cincinnati Reds Announce Signing of Two New Coaches; Fate of ‘Little World Series’ at Stake as Minor League Heads Hold Annual Gathering. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent LOUISVILLE, Ky.. Nov. 20 —Arrival of the Chicago Cubs’ delegation, headed by Charles J. Grimm, with a free rein on the Wrigley money bags and the power to act, promised to stir up interest today on the eve of the thirty-third annual convention of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (the minors;. The meeting runs through Friday and there will be plenty of entertainment.

Hickey Stays A. A. Re-Elects Veteran; Norman Perry Named on Committee.

By L nitrd Pre* T OUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 20. Thomas Jefferson Hickey, 73, yesterday was re-elected president of the American Association for a one-year term —his twenty-second—

at the annual meeting of the club owners. He also w r as re-elect-ed secretary and treasurer. Hickey announced that the last season showed a 15 per cent increase over 1933. A com mi t tee composed of R. J. Connery, St. Paul; Norman A. Perry,

Indianapolis, and George M. Troutman. Columbus, was appointed ;o confer with a committee from :he International League to discuss the play-offs in each league and ‘the little world series” between the two pennant winners. Salary Limit Desired An attempt also will be made to >et a uniform salary limit for both leagues. The new St. Paul organization, of w'hich Lou McKenna, sports editor of the St. Paul Pioneer Press-Dispatch, is business maniger, w'as officially admitted. Henry Bcndinger, president of the Milwaukee club, who bought into the league after the 1934 season opened, was officially approved in his new position. The American Association voted ;o continue the all-star game again next season. It was held last year for the first time. Details will be arranged at today's meeting. A 154game schedule, with the season opening April 16, is expected to be adopted. a a a THE American Association may yet abandon the pennant playoff arrangement and return to the straightaway eight-club race to determine the champion. Indianapolis and Louisville are known to favor the present system, with high club in the east meeting high club in the western half. Minneapolis is rounding up support to have the league return to the old method. an a With the Louisville Colonels training at Union city, Tenn., next spring and the Indianapolis Indians pitching their camp at Mayfield, Ky., it is said the respective managers, Ken Penner and Red Killefer, will arrange a number of practice games between the teams late in March and in early April. The Indians also may play Memphis and other Southern Association teams. nan The American Association headquarters at the convention in Louisville are at the Kentucky hotel. General headquarters of the National Association convention will be at the Brown hotel. b a a BROOKLYN, Washington Senators and Chicago White Sox have approached the Indianapolis club with feelers on a prospective deal for outfielder Vernon Washington. He batted .368 this year and the White Sox tried to land him in the draft. Later it was brought out he was a draft ineligible. Chief Killefer is listening to all offers that would bring playing strength to the Indians. The Brooklyn Nationals appear to have the best chance of landing the Tribe swatter.

Four /. U. Players Nurse Grid Injuries By Cnited Press BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Nov. 20. Walker and Keck, backs, and Captain Sprauer and Stevenson, linemen, of the Indiana squad are nursing injuries suffered in the Maryland game. Coach Bo McMillin plans no lineup changes for Saturday's final with Purdue. The Hoosiers are adding new plays to their offense. Tanski to Encounter Smith on Hall Mat Another college football player who has gained recognition in the mat game is billed to grapple here Friday night, with the signing today of Vic Tanski to tangle with Jack Smith in the semi-final of the wrestling show at Tomlinson hall. Tanski performed on the gridiron for Ohio State in the 1931-32 seasons. Smith triumphed in the semiwindup last Friday in straight falls, though his tactics carried him into disfavor with local fans. The matchmaker still is seeking a suitable opponent for Clete Kauffman of Marion, 0., for the main event. Kauffman was disqualified last week for foul tactics against Curley Donehin.

INDIANAPOLIS, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1934

The National Association is a minor league gathering, but practically all the major league clubs are represented here and seveial of them are talking trade and transfer in a large way. Frequently the managers and magnates never get beyond the talking stage at this annual conclave. That’s where Grimm, manager and vice-president of the Cubs, comes in. Grimm, under the new P. K. Wrigley regime, has more authority than any other major league manager. Wrigley’s only orders to Grimm are to get together the strongest club possible. Cub Pilot Eyes Stars Grimm covets several players, including pitchers Hal Schumacher and Carl Hubbell of the Giants, Van Mungo of Brooklyn and Larry French, Pittsburgh southpaw. He has more cash to spend than any other National League manager, and plenty of trading material. When Grimm was elevated recently to the vice-presidency he was empowered to make his own deals as he saw fit. He doesn’t have to ask anybody’s advice, unless he wants it. Last year tre Cubs’ front office made a trade on him at a critical time in the pennant race and didn’t tell him about it until two hours later. Grimm had an appointment today with Bill Terry, who is tearing apart the former world champion Giants, and something may come of the meeting. If no deals result here, the groundwork may be laid for a big trade at the major league meeting next month in New York. Combs Rumors Are Ended The first major league news here was the announcement that the Cincinnati Reds have signed Long George Kelly, former first baseman of the Giants and Reds, and Thomas Sheehan, pitcher with the Hollywood Pacific Coast League club last season, as Cincinnati coaches, Burt Shotton, Reds coach last year, was dropped. Shotton, who formerly managed the Phillies, still is being paid his full salary, said to be $15,000 a year, by the Phillies. That contract does not expire until the end of the 1935 season. It is believed Shotton will line up with the Cardinals’ chain system in some capacity. Earl Combs, New York Yankees’ outfielder, who was seriously injured last year when he collided with the outfield wall at St. Louis, was honor guest at a testimonial dinner last night at which Joe McCarthy, Yankees’ manager; Frankie Frisch, Cardinals’ manager, and Charlie Dressen, Cincinnati manager, were speakers. McCarthy said he expected Combs to be back in the Yankee outfield next season, ending rumors that Combs would never play ball again. Dixie Series at Stake The fate of two minor league championship playoffs—the “little world series” between the American Association and International League pennant winners, and the Dixie series between the Texas League and Southern Association pennant winners—hung in the balance today. The American Association is not keen about continuing the “little world series” under the present system of “play-offs” in each league before the series is begun. The Southern Association wants to have a full season of 154 games without any playoff in its own ranks, while the Texas League wants to have a playoff involving the first four clubs. If both stick to their present intentions the Dixie series probably will be temporarily abandoned.

Purdue Gives the East an Idea

<• ; : ' ..-'?M , . .

THE sturdy Boilermakers of Purdue invaded the east last Saturday and illustrated the fashion of football taught by coach Noble Kizer. Fordham was taken into camp, 7 to 0, and it was the next to the last game for Purdue. The Boilermakers, sharing the Big Ten lead with Minnesota, will wind up their schedule Saturday in the annual Hoosier classic at Lafayette, playing Bo McMillin’s Indiana crew. Picture shows Duane Purvis, a member of the firm of Purvis and Carter, the “touchdown twins,” scooting for a short gain around end. He is holding the ball as if it was a loaf of bread.

Hoosier Big Three Holds Grid Interest This Week Indiana and Purdue to Clash While Irish Oppose Army in East: Hanover Entertains Georgetown. BY DICK MILLER The shadow's are fast falling over the Indiana college football season. Only five teams remain in action. Two of them—lndiana and Purdue—will wind up the campaign with their traditional scrap at West Lafayette, Saturday, and Notre Dame travels east to tackle her rival of long standing, Army, at the Polo Grounds in New York. Hanover will entertain Georgetown (Ky.) on the Hanover campus. Rose Poly tackles James Millikin on Thanksgiving day and Hanover takes on Illinois Wesleyan the same date. Notre Dame w-ill rest until the Irish head west to tackle Southern California in the final windup for Hoosier elevens, Dec. 8.

All eyes of Hoosierdom are on the two major tilts. Victory for the Kizermen over Indiana will give Purdue a mathematical tie with Minnesota, providing the Gophers are not upset by Wisconsin. Purdue figures to win over Indiana, but dope does not hold in games between the two. Purdue still recalls very vividly how its Boilermakers were figured to win by a wide margin in 1930, only to have the boys from down on the Monon come up and smite them 7-6. Last Games for Stars Coach Noble Kizer brushed the dust off ox that one this week and told the story over and over again. It will be the last game for the tw'O great Purdue half backs, Duane Purvis and Jim Carter, and doubtlessly they will be out there turning on the steam. Some give the Boilermakers a two-touchdown edge, but the way Indiana came back from the Minnesota trouncing to defeat Maryland and escape both games without injury should spur the Crimson on this week. Several boys from Indiana and Purdue will be playing their last game and that always makes for more effort. A host of Crimson fans will be pulling for Bo McMillin to get away with a victory over Purdue in his first year as coach of the Crimson. On the other hand, there will be just as many pulling for Noble Kizer to come through with a tie in the title race with Minnesota. Kizer has brought the Boilermakers along fast after two opening season setbacks at the hands of Rice and Notre Dame. Irish Feared By Cadets Elmer Layden and his band of Irish will travel east this week decidedly in a different position than they were a year ago when they scored the season’s most startling upset by downing the Cadets, 13-12, as windup of an otherwise disastrous season for the Irish. The Notre D&me team, then coached by Hunk Anderson, had taken it on the nose regularly after the second game of the season. They went to New York with every one conceding them a drubbing and even some of the players resigned to the fate. The half closed with the Cadets leading, 12-0. What those Fighting Irish said to one another in the intermission is known only to them, but fighting back savagely in the last half, they came from behind to win, 13-12. The Army knows all about the Irish teams and the fact that Layden’s crew has victories over Purdue, Carnegie Tech, Wisconsin and Northwestern this fall. They realize the Irish lost to Texas in the season opener in a game they were not ready for; to Navy, a team they consistently outplayed all afternoon, and bowed only to Pittsburgh's vaunted eleven by a decisive count, 19-0. Navy took a worse licking from Pitt last Saturday and so have

other teams supposed to be stronger than the Irish. So it will be a feared Irish team that trots out for battle with the Cadets this year and there are not a few W'ho feel Elmer Layden, one of the famous Four Horsemen, one of the players who helped build the Irish to the great attraction they are in New York, will bring his team along just one notch farther this week and score another triumph. Hanover against Georgetown appears to be all Hanover. Coach John Van Liew undoubtedly will give some of his reserves a trial in this one, since De Pauw trounced the Kentuckians decisively. The big game for the Panthers is with Illinois Wesleyan on Thanksgiving. The foxy Hanover mentor probably will use Hay, Arnold, Hammond, Stines and other stars to pile up a lead Saturday and then attempt to get a line on what he will have next season. The dope favors Hanover by a wide margin.

By Unitert Press SHIZUOKA, Japan, Nov. 20.—Lou Gehrig's seventh-inning home run produced the only run today in the tightest game the American League all-stars have played against Japanese opponents on their tour of the Orient.

What promises to be one of the best heavyweight wrestling matches of the year is scheduled for the Armory tonight and brings together Joe Savoldi, the former Notre Dame grid ace, and Abe (Half Pint' Coleman. who is recognized as the best Jewish mat husky In the world. The two nationally-known wrestlers, both of whom have gone undefeated in local rings, are expected to attract a large turnout of local and state fans. There is to be no increase in prices for the show, according to matchmaker Lloyd Carter of the Hercules A. C. The tussle is viewed as a ring “natural” with odds about even despite the fact Savoldi will outweigh his opponent by some twelve pounds. Abe, who scales 205 and stands but five feet, four inches tall, is rated the “smallest big fellow” in the game. The “Jumper" weighs 218 to 220 and is a “six-footer.” Coleman is expected to defend chiefly upon his highly-touted "kangaroo kick” to lead him to victory tonight, while Savoldi is figured to use his widely heralded “drop kick” as his chief weapon of offense. Matchmaker Carter has lined up two other heavyweight matches for his supporting card. The semiwindup will see the return of Tom (Bad Wolf) Marvin, the Oklahoma Indian. Marvin tangles with Jack League, popular young Texan. The opener at 8:30 brings together Gentleman Jack Smith, a newcomer from Chicago, and Sid Nabors of Memphis.
