Cardinal Lineup Due for Alteration , Ripper Says First-Sacker Collins Predicts Pepper Will Move to Right Field: Sees Youngsters Making Good.

BY HARRY GRAYSON NT A Service Nport* Editor ST LOUIS. Nov 20 —James Anthony Collins believes that Charley Orlbert will do practically all the third basine for the St. Louis Cardinals in 1036 with the redoubtable Pepper Martin switching his activities to right field. Ownei Sam Breadon has announced that Martin would return to

center. "But just what is Frank Frisch going to do with Terry Moore?” asks Ripper Collins. "Martin can't begin to play center field with Moore, and Terry was leading our club in hitting when we returned from our final swing through the East Moore is the fastest man in baseball, and is destined to become one of the great stars of the game.” Collins, who plays so much first base for the Red Birds, explains that Martin is definitely through as an infielder. Pepper's injured throwing arm brought about wild throws that cost the Cardinals a half dozen precious games in 1935. Martin is a remarkable ball player with a grand spirit, but he doesn’t know how to take care of himself," explains Collins. "He drove a midget auto racer through the streets of St. Louis when he should have been doctoring his arm" Collins believes that Outfielders Jack Rothrock and Ernie Orsatti will be disposed of. King, who came up late last season, is a year or two away, in his opinion. an tt Frisch Out us Regular sees Frisch as only a * part-time plaver in 1936, with Burgess Whithead taking the old Fordham Flash’s place at second base. The Ripper asserts that Lyle Judy, the base-pilfering youngster who reported from Springfield of the Western Association during the closing days, has a fine chance despite his lack of size, provided he Ray Makes Short Work of Levinskv Wrestler Steele Pins Boxer in 35 Seconds. By United Press ST. LOUIS, Nov. 20.—Ray Steele, heavyweight wrestler, pinned King Levinsky, title contender in the heavyweight fight game, in 35 seconds of their mixed match here last night. The event, first mixed match to be held between contenders of prominence, drew a house of approximately 11.000. Levinsky caught Steele with two hard roundhouse blows to the face at the start, drawing blood from the wrestler’s eye. Steele got a grip from behind, around the King’s midsection. He attempted to toss the fighter out of the ring, but Levinsky clung to the ropes with noth hands. Referee Walter Heisner parted the men and then Steele pinned the boxer to the canvas for the count. Levinsky was smiling and waving to fans as he left the ring, far from disheartened by his short shift against Steele. Both weighed 205 at the start.

Jimmy (Ripper) Collins

comes out of a tragic automobile accident intact. "Why, that kid steals bases even when the opposition knows he is going down,” beams Collins. The Cardinals are likely to carry a third catcher in young Ogrodowski, recalled from Columbus. Bill DeLancey’s severe illness may retard him somewhat in the early going. U tt a McGee Looks Good BILL McGEE, the large righthanded pitcher who turned in such a fine performance against the Chicago Cubs in the finish which was so heart-breaking for the Cards, is fairly certain to stick around. McGee figures to be the most valuable of all the new men, for the Cardinal problem, even though the outfit is blessed with the two Deans, is that of most every other team —pitching. Shufflin’ Phil Collins isn’t likely to be around in the spring. Ed Heusser will be carried, but scarcely can be classed as dependable. Harrell, Kleinke and Mays Copeland, of whom so much was expected, were disappointments even when farmed out. a t> u Ogrodowski in Demand S' PEAKING of Ogrodowski, the Pittsburgh Pirates want him badly, but can do no business with Branch Rickey. “Ogrodow'rki is the only minor league catcher I know of who has much of a chance of making a go of it in the majors,” declares Pie Traynor. Traynor says that neither Tommy Padden, Earl Grace, nor Aubrey Epps throws well enough to help the Pirates to first place. "Give the Pirates a first-class catcher and a big strong pitcher and they’ll hear from us,” asserts Traynor. The boss of the Buccaneers points to the fact that Bush and Red Lucas have reached that stage of their careers where they can give a club nothing more than a 50-50 break iff the victories and defeats. tt M tt Can't Stop the Rabbit TRAYNOR says that the Pirates will be set everywhere except in the battery positions, even though he is unable to work the kink out of his right shoulder. “Lavagetto solved our third basing problem toward the end of the 1935 campaign, and we have Tommy Thevenow to fall back on,” explains Traynor. "There is only one thing certain about the Boston Braves.” chirps Walter James Maranville, just turned 44. “and that is that Maranville will be back at second base.” It appears that nothing can stop the Rabbit—not even a shattered leg at 42.

12 Purdue Men Close College Play at I. U. Seniors Make Final Bid for Grid Glory Against Traditional Foe. LAFAYETTE, Ind., Nov. 20. Twelve Purdue seniors, most of whom have seen frequent action on the gridiron this fall, will close their coll'giate football careers Saturday when the Boilermakers tackle Indiana at Bloomington in the thirty-eighth renewal of the traditional series. The Boilermakers will suffer their heaviest losses in the forward wall where three guards, three ends and one tackle will make their final bid for gridiron glory. The senior wingmen include Frank (Butch) Loebs, iron-man right end who has played more minutes this season than any man on the squad; Howard Guirl, rangy left end, and Colby Reed. At guards, three men whose fastcharging play against the heavy Hawkeye line was a big factor in the Purdue victory, will be playing their final game, including Fred Voss, Wayne Sandefur and George Dennis. The senior forward w'ali contingent is completed by Ted Fehring, tackle. Although the line losses are the heaviest, no less than five back field man, including Tony Wright, whose all-around play was bright in the Fordham victory, will see their final action against Indiana. The other senior back fielders include Hewitt East, hard-running half back; Leon Dailey, half back, Dick Sandefur, full back, and Robert Vaughan-Catt, half back. Defensive positions were stressed in an indoor workout after light practice outside on a muddy field yesterday. New plays to be used against Indiana w'ere explained. Bo Orders Secrecy By United Press BLO ’TINGTON, Ind., Nov. 20. No ne, as to Indiana’s preparations fer the Purdue tilt here next Saturday is leaking out of the Hoosier camp this week, for Coach Bo McMillin has ordered the strictest secrecy for the daily workouts. The Crimson will take few scrimmage drills, to prevent the possibility of additional injuries, and the defense will be thoroughly schooled in maneuvers to stop the hard running Purdue back field. It is doubtful that Corby Davis, full back, will be able to see action in the game, for he received a revere shoulder injury in Chicago. Ray Fox, Willie Anderson and Ettore Antonini, all hurt in the Chicago tilt, are expected to be in shape. Coach McMillin refused to make comment on the Purdue game, except that, "We’ll have to use everything we have if we expect to stay with them.” I . the game here Saturday. Indiana will be out to win its first game at Bloomington since 1923, when Wilkins booted a long drop kick to win a 3-0 decision. Capt. Reed Kelso, w'ho booted a field goal and tw’o points after touchdown against Chicago, is being groomed to repeat his performance. He is one of seven Indiana seniors who will be playing their final collegiate football game. The others are Wendel Walker, half back; Antonini, end; Bob Keck, back; Chuck Burton, back; Ided Johnson, guard, and Harry Nelson, center.

Cochran Rallies to Take Second World Cue Title Lead Changes Nine Times as Veteran Hoppe Loses Again: Plays for Runnerup Honors Tonight. By United Prats CHICAGO, Nov. 20.—Willie Hoppe, bitterly disappointed over his fourth failure to win the world's three-cushion billiard tournament, will meet Arthur Thurnblad tonight in a playoff for second place. The former “boy wonde r ” was defeated by Welker Cochran. San Francisco, another former ‘ boy wonder,” in the finals, 50 to 46, before a capacity crowd last night. j

Hoppe first wielded a cue at the age of 7. Cochran took up the game at 8. The former now is grayhaired and 48. The latter is blackhaired and 39. Cochran made seven straight billiards to run out on Hoppe after trailing, 43 to 46, at the end of 44 innings. The lead changed nine times and both missed many shots by the barest fraction of an inch. The world's three-cushion title is the only major championship which

Francis louis layden, pictured here, w'ho travels under the nickname Mike, will be among 17 Notre Dame football veterans who will play their last game for the Irish Saturday against Southern California in Notre Dame Stadium. Mike Layden’s swan'song, coming as it does against Southern Cal. is interesting for the reason that Mike scored both Notre Dame touchdowns against the Trojans last year. Up until then. Mike was known to the football w'orld chiefly as the brother of Coach Elmer Layden. At Notre Dame he was known as a 6-foot-one-inch, 180-pound half back with great open field and pass-tossing ability. a a tt MIKE knew when his brother was made coach that he would have to show more skill than any other back on the team in order to see action. When George Melinkovich w'as hurt late last season the younger Layden was given his chance at right half back and he accounted for the dowmfall of the Trojans. Hounded by injuries this season, he never has let down in spirit. He scored against Navy and Ohio State on passes that were sorely needed. He caught four passes in the Buckeye game for 37 yards and completed the only one he threw, to Pilney for nine yards. He W'as hurt in the Kansas game when, leaping for a pass, he smashed into the goal posts. The injury recurred in the Carnegie Tech fray and he was unable to play for three w'eeks. Since then the injury has bothered him, but failed to stop him. a a a SHAKESPEARE. Layden, Carideo—three justly famous names—make up the back field which will line up behind Quarter Back Wally Fromhart for the last time Saturday before an expected crowd of 50,000. And to his credit, it may be said that none ever has expected any favors on the basis of his family name, least of all Mike Layden, brother of Notre Dame’s ‘‘skipper.” Other seniors on the squad are Fromhart, Andy Pilney, Tony Mazziotti, Don Elser. Frankie Gaul, Henry Pojman, Fred Solari, Wayne Millner, Marty Peters, Matt Themes, Dick Pfefferle, John Michuta, Ken Stilley and Sonny Church.

passes, particularly those of Bill Shakespeare, was stressed today and after the workout Coach Jones was still insistent that, if his boys played with the same mental attitude against Notre Dame that they did against Washington State, they would defeat the Irish in one of the biggest upsets of the season. Since 1926 wlien the series between the two schools opened Notre Dame has won five games and U. S. C. four. The Irish won four of the first five and the Trojans three of the last four, the Irish winning last year at Los Angeles, 14-0. Southern California will stop tomorrow at Hutchinson.

Killefer Off to Fast Start at Dayton Confab, Obtains Pitcher Tinning for Tribe

Former Big League Hurler Acquired From Columbus for Waiver Price: Hoosier Pilot Searching for Outfielders; Cooney. Sherlock ‘Deadline’ Set Up. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor DAYTON. O. Nov. 20.—Pitcher Bud Tinning an experienced righthander. was added to the Indianapolis roster today in Manager Wade Killefer s first move to bolster the Indians with player stock and place him in a more favorable position to enter the trading market in his search for outfielders. ■—-

Tinning was obtained from the Columbus Red Birds on waivers for the sum of S3OOO. Third Baseman Bob Faucett. drafted by Indianapolis from Galveston sometime ago. cost the Hoosiers $4500, making the total outlay $7500 as a beginner {or the Indians in their efforts to build a pennant winner for the 1936 American Association season. Tinning performed in the majors with the Chicago Cubs and St. Louis Cardinals. Outfielder Johnnny Cooney and second baseman Vincent Sherlock, sold to Brooklyn on trial last fall, have until April 15 to prove they are of big league caliber, otherwise they will be returned to Indianapolis. In the event the two tribe pastimers are retained by Brooklyn, the Dodgers will be required to deliver four players to the Indians, or a cash sum. The first agreement between the Hoosiers and Brooklyn stipulated that the national league club would have until May 15 to pass judgment on Cooney and Sherlock. Faucett Impresses Wade Manager Killefer is convinced that Faucett of Galveston will make good, and if this happens the veteran Fred Bedore will be sold or traded. The American Association is expected to open on Sunday next spring and the guess is that Kansas City will be the visiting attraction at Perry Stadium, Indianapolis. It will be something new for Indianapolis fans and if the plan goes through the stadium doubtless will be packed when the curtain goes up. The A. A. also w'ants to go back to the play-off arrangement and is thinking of adopting a four-club play-off similar to the system followed by the International League, w'hich will mean the “little world series” again will be placed on the baseball calendar. ‘‘Heat” on Hickey The A. A. will not hold its regular winter meeting until Dec. 10 in Chicago, but the league politicians are active at the Dayton convention trying to unseat President Thomas J. Hickey, who has been in the saddle for years. But Hickey is in Dayton repairing his fences to offer a hard fight. Billy Evans, w'ho resigned recently as Cleveland business manager, is the latest “name” candidate to be mentioned. Veteran observers believe, however, that when the showdowm comes, Hickey will top the field. He carried the league through the depression when it w'as on shaky legs during two seasons. Ex-Indian Pilots on Hand

Former Indianapolis managers attending the convention are Jack Hendricks, Johnnie Corriden. Ownie Bush, Bruno Betzel. Charlie O'Leary and Bob Allen. The last-named piloted the Hoosiers in the nineties. He is now president of the Knoxville club of the Southern Association and has as his manager, Jess Petty, former Indianapolis southpaw hurler. Milwaukee today announced the sale of Catcher Paul Florence to Galveston. He formerly caught for the Indians. The Hoosier capital has heavy representation in Dayton, including Owner Norman A. Perry of the tribesters. Manager Killefer, Road Secretary Dale Miller. Ownie Bush. Johnny Corriden. Jim Pierce and Barney Kelly. Umpire Harry Geisel was due today.
