Franklin Fullback Has Broken Hand
Times Special : FRANKLIN, Ind, Oct. 23.—An injury suffered in the De Pauw game two weeks ago will make it impossible for Bob Grannan, Franklin College fullback, to start against
Rickey, vice president and general manager of the St. Louis Cards.
The master-mind of the Red Bird baseball organization occupied the top spot¢on the program and for fully an hour and three-quarters expounded his athletic philosophy— garnished with colorful bits of sport lore—to the assembled mentors to win going away the somewhat mythical and fanciful title of A. D. 8. E.—after-dinner-speaker- extraordinary. Mr. Rickey laid the ground-work for his informal address by request-
ing and receiving from the coaches |- E
questions whicheach held uppermost in his mind regarding the subject of athletics; football, basebal basketball, professional or amateur. But first he paused to pay tribute to the men who made up his audience. Lauds Coaches
“No where could I gather together a group of men with a superior cleanliness of approach, a greater modesty in success, a finer alertness of mind or a more magnificent opportunity - for leadership than I have before me this evening,” the baseball leader declared. “No teacher of Latin, no professor of mathematics, no instructor of philosophy—however, sincere and admirable is the work of these particular persons—has such a chance to transfer impressions of a leader to a boy as you men have.” “When you face a group of boys in a dressing room you hear the slap, slap, of untrammeled emotions, of true impulse, not designed, premeditated reactions. You coaches as a group have a wonderful opportunity for pedagogy; you, most of any of us, can touch virulent blood streams of the boys who years from now will control this country. Stresses Physical Fitness
Mr. Rickey’s opening arguments were in answer to the question, “What is your opinion regarding athletes smoking?” “Smoking is bad for any one who puts any store by physical fitness,” he asserted firmly. “If you're paid in victories or in money for your physical fitness then why not in the name of common sense resist the temptation to smoke.” “Are you going to sell Diz?” another coach asked. “The answer to that is no. I'm not going to sell Dean but if I am offered a contract exchange that would be advantageous to the St. Louis ball club, then I might consider it.” “Are the Cardinal players underpaid?” another querried. Top Pay One Year “Well, for the last 11 years the Cardinals ‘never have finished below the first division in the.amount of money paid to its players,” Rickey replied. “One year it ranked first. During the other 10 years the Cardinals received more money from baseball than any other team.” “Discuss reasons for more high school and amateur baseball?” At this juncture, Mr, Rickey hit upon the subject about which he feels very sincerely and deeply and he enlarged to great extent in answering the question. “If I owned a school and wanted a sport that would offer the most in respect to the minimum of physcal danger as related to the maximum of physical advantage obtained; a sport which would let in all boys; a sport which had in it a great technique and great skill; an ideal sport which doesnt put too excessive a pressure upon the heart and endurance of the youngsters, that would be baseball,” he said. “If any sport really deserved to be called the great American pastime, baseball is it. “That's my answer. If you keep a boy busy and playing hard in sport

and send him to bed at night tired and worn out you're turning back the inevitable challenge of “idleness in youth, the great, restless, devastating and character - destroying force of idleness. In short, you're preventing spiritual bankruptcy, and in so doing you are driving at the root of our crime problem.”
Suggests “College Rule”
Discussing the proselyting of outstanding college and university athletes by professional organizations, Mr. Rickey said he favored “enactment of a rule that no college athlete would be permitted to go into professional football until after the date of graduation of the class with which he entered school.” “That would prevent signing up college stars right after they've had a good season in the amateur fanks,” he said. “But the rule will have to be applied to all clubs, because one organization can't : meet competition by observing a rule that is ignored by others.”

WHAT MAKES FOLKS
city’s justly & celebrated air, I climbed the steep hill leading to the athletic offices of the University of Pittsburgh yesterday, in search of Coach Jock Sutherland. Coach Sutherland’s boys, who are known as Panthers, play the Irish of Notre Dame at football tomor-
usual batch of stereotyped questions sports writers always ask when they arrive to cover a game, namely, who's hurt, who isn’t hurt, who's gonna win, who's not gonna win, who may tie?
1 didn’t get a chance to put these pregnant questions to Sutherland as he was in an improvised studio studying pictures of last Saturday’s game which Pitt lost to Duquesne, 7 to 0. I could have gone into the studio and seen him, of course, but frankly I'm not that brave. Interviewing Sutherland right after he unexpectedly inherited $10,000,000 would be tough enough, and the Sabughy of trying to talk to him while he was watching pictures of his team being beaten by a tean which should never have done it, quailed even so resolute a heart as mine, 28 2 ycomTally. there is. gossip in this town by the Monongahela that the Marquis of Queensbury would have been a bit shocked by the rude tactics of the Duquesne players. I heard from one of the well-known “men on the street” that the referee should have rung the bell after teach three minutes of play if only to make the Duquesne boys feel at home,
But to get back on the hill. Unable—or rather unwilling—to see Sutherland, 1 obtained a PittNotre Dame player roster. 1 had not read more than half of it when I came to this very definite, conclusion: Coach Sutherland and Coach El mer Layden of Notre Dame must be the two outstanding football coaches in America today.
” » ” F OW else, along with having to teach football tactics to their squads, could they possibly remember the names of the men who form the bulk of their material? On the field for Pittsburgh tomorrow there will be this possible eleven:

For a coach to teach an involved spinner play to players named Brown, Smith and Jones is difficult enough.
