BOWLING GREEN, Ky. April 9. —The arrival in training camp to-

| §

day of Buck Fausett, regular third | §

baseman, was eagerly awaited by Wade Killefer, tribe chieftain, who | is anxious to learn the kind of shape | the last of the Indian holdouts is in. Killefer is in a bad fix on the infield situation and may have to | use Fausett at shortstop on open- | ing day and in other early games | of the regular American Association race. Cold, rainy weather has retarded the conditioning of Francis (Salty) Parker, regular shortstop, | who has been ill, substituting. at

Hal has been ordered to consult a |

Times Special NEW YORK. April 9.—Members 'of thi Falls City Hi-Brus, Indiani apolis’ quintet, will have to post some classy totals in today’s minor events if they expect to nab any titles in this year's American Bowlling Congress tournament. | The team failed to click in last ‘night's appearance in the five-man ‘event and relinquished their cham- | pionship title, won in the 1936 tournament in Indianapolis with a 3039. { The champions turned in games of 1940, 879 and 922 for a 2711 total {that is far down the list of team | standings.

Lieber Beer, dark horse entrant {from the Hoosier capital, fared much better than the 1936 cham- | pions, | that is good for eighth position in the present standings.

Two classy soio counts were turned in by Printcraft League pastimers, also in action at Pritchett’s. Lou Fahrbach pounded the maples for a 667 that was good for honors. He had 226, 219 and 222, leading Rapid Rollers to two wins over Quality Flowers. George Vale's 646 featured for the losers. Jack Hunt, who Wednesday night posted a season record, was still in a striking mood and tossed games of 225, 192 and 245 for a 662. He received little support from his teammates and Rolles Printing lost twice to Advance Electrotype. Hinchman’s 653, that paced Clayborn Corp. to a shutout over Indianapolis Star and Larry Bradley's 634 for the unopposed Bingham Rollers were other honor totals of the loop.

Paul Moore continued his heavy scoring with a 623 that was good for runnerup honors, Joe Argus Jr., the North Side youth, who is rivaling his brother, Frank, for popularity in the tenpin game, made further progress last night when he topped the scoring of the Intermediate League at the Uptown Alleys. He tossed a 647 to take the honors The lone 643 shooter of the huge Industrial League, rolling at the Indiana Alleys, was Joe Hughes, who featured a 231 middle game in posting a 621.

North Central Says Betting Is Increasing

Association Claims College

Contests Are Basis for Much Gambling. «

By United Press CHICAGO, April 9.—The athletic committee of the North Central Association of colleges and secondary schools reported today that subsidizing and proselyting of athletes had increased during the last year and warned against an “alarming increase in gambling on college contests.” The report cited no specific cases and contained no “blacklist.” It was interpreted, however, as a general warning.

fessional contests in contrast with college athletics. “Much has been written and said in vague terminology about ‘overemphasis,’ ‘subsidizing,’ ‘recruiting,’ and ‘professionalism.’ but the public’s kasic confidence in the integrity of the athletic contests themselves remains unshaken,” it said. Wrestling Has Fallen

“By contrast, wrestling has fallen to the low status of a vaudeville act; boxing is in about the same disreputée as (horse racing, even baseball has had its scandals of major consequence; but no one has ever suggested that the outcome of a university game was predetermined or ‘fixed.’ “We believe | the broad picture of

The report criticized sharply pro- |

college athletics is far from disheartening. It remains for us as educators to continue a vigorous fight against the noxious practices described in the 1937 report. Particularly, there must be no com-

promise with the alarming spread

of gambling on college contests.” Dr. B. I,. Stradley, dean of arts and sciences at the Ohio State University, whose proselyting charges two years ago resulted in widespread investigations, made the report.
