DYKES IN TRADING MOOD

WHEN the major league trade-and-sell powwow opens in Chicago Tuesday. Jimmy Dykes, above, is expected to be right in the thick of the bartering. Dykes, veteran player and manager of the White Sox, hopes to land a young third baseman to relieve him of that post, outfielder Sammy West and perhaps Jimmy Foxx.

Chisox to Make Strong Club If Deals Materialize Addition of Foxx, English and West Would Convert Chicago Into League Pennant Threat. BY WINTHROP LYMAN United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Dec. 6.—The Chicago White Sox should be a contender for the American League championship in 1936 if all the player deals they are reported to have made finally prove to be facts. The latest rumor says Owner J. Louis Comiskey has paid $75,000 cash to Connie Mack of the Athletics for Jimmy Foxx, slugging first baseman.

Ever since the minor league meeting at Dayton, 0., last month, reports have been current that the Sox have agreed to trade A1 Simmons, of the big batting slump, to Detroit for $25,000 cash, Outfielder Gerald Walker and Infielder Gilbert English. That deal it is said, is the forerunner of another under which the Sox will send Walker to the St. Louis Browns in return for Sammy West. A pitcher and a little cash might be thrown in to compensate the Browns for the loss of West. So far all the reported deals have brought denials from Harry Grabiner. vice president of the Sox. Mickey Cochrane, manager of the Tigers, has denied the Simmons deal. Connie Mack has beeh denying rumors for weeks that Foxx has been disposed of. If Foxx actually has been purchased, Manager Jimmy Dykes of the White Sox will have Zeke Bonura, his regular first baseman, available for another trade. Bonura hit only .295 this year and failed to connect effectively in the pinches. English is a third baseman who once had a tryout with the Giants. He was purchased recently from Portland of the Pacific Coast League by Detroit. Dykes liked the youngster when he saw him play against the Sox in an exhibition game with Portland last spring. , If English could make the grade, he would be available to replace the aging Dykes and give the Sox a rounded infield. The hurling staff will be built around the veteran Ted Lyons and two rookies who earned their spurs last season, Vernon Kennedy and John Whitehead. MAROONS SELECT LEADERS CHICAGO, Dec. 6.—Sam Whiteside, center, and Prescott Jordan, guard, last night were elected cocaptains of the 1936 University of

Chicago football team. Whiteside is from Evanston and Jordan from La Grange, 111.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Purdue Coach Seeks Fresh Court Talent Lambert Rebuilding Team for Another Crack at Big Ten Title. Times Special LAFAYETTE, IND„ Dec. 6.—Lack of height of the squad as a whole, coupled with the loss of a group of outstanding stars from last year’s co-championship quintet, is providing a real problem for Coach Ward Lambert of Purdue as he fashions the Boilermakers’ 1935-3t> hardwood combination. The Boilermakers, who have won or shared in eight championships in the past 15 years, seldom, have experienced as heavy material losses in a single season as this year. Last year’s co-captains, Norman Cotton, All-American forward, and Ed Shaver, brilliant back guard, headline the list of losses. Lambert’s rebuilding problems are aggravated by the severity of the pre-conference schedule, which will demand a finished brand of basketball from the start if the Boilermakers can hope to make a strong showing for the season. Opening against Western State here Monday night, the Boilermakers, who handed DePaul its lone defeat last year, will play a return game with the Windy City crew in Chicago a week from Saturday night, then meet St. Xavier, Butler, Notre Dame, California, N. Y. U., and Temple in order before launching their Big Ten title defense. Among the five hold-over major lettermen from last year’s combination, Bob Kessler, forward and captain, is a standout. Kessler scored 150 points in Big Ten competition last season. Two local product sophomores, John Sines and Jewell Young, are among the leading candidates for the assignment as Kessler’s running mate at forward. Other forward possibilities include John Bruce, Edwin Howard. Vincent Holloway, and Ercell Cummins. Olympic Debate Certain, Is Word By United Press NEW YORK, Dec. 6.—The question of American participation in the German Olympic games positively will be brought up at tomorrow’s general meeting of the Amateur Athletic Union, even if consideration is voted down in committee meeting today, Jeremiah T.

Dec. 6.—John Golemgeske, captain-elect of the 1936 University of Wisconsin football team, today said he had been ’’misled'’ in circulating a petition demanding the resignation of Dr. Clarence W.

Meanwell, athletic director and former basketball coach, it is no secret that Spears believed he would be named athletic director when he came here from Oregon four years ago. Golemgeske said Meanwell, on the train returning from the Northwestern game, suggested that he ascertain how the other players regarded Spears and his methods. The captain-elect said he circulated the petition at the urging of players who had grievances and wanted to express them after talking with Meanwell. “I did not sign the petition,”
