BASEBALL MOVES into its second 100 years this

spring and they're still trying to break up the Yankees

« « « The Bronx Bombers keep step as time marches on

and there’s no telling how long they’ll rule the American League and World Series competition. In the National League a far different situation is presented . . . In the last three years three different

clubs have been the pennant winners—New York Giants repeating in 1937, Chicago Cubs in 1938 and the Cincinnati Reds in 1939 : :

For the new year, the outlook is better than fair for the return

- of the St. Louis Cardinals to the pennant post in the senior major . . . They have not figured in a World Series since 193¢ when

THE COMING season will find night baseball a more vital factor than ever in the big show . . over to the arc lights and several clubs are on the fence . .. Last year the American League approved after-dark play for the first time . . . When the Reds got permission from the National League to operate under lights and were followed by the Brooklyn-Dodgers, the American League took a somewhat patronizing attitude. But last summer the Philadelphia, Cleveland and Chicago clubs of the American League and the Phillies of the Natianal joined the Reds and Dodgers in catering to the large clientele which delights .in the thrills of baseball in the cool of the evening...

Attendance and Receipts Soar

WITH THE aid of a growing interest in night ball, the major leagues are heading for all-time high in attendance and receipts . ... They enjoyed an 800.000 increase in paid admissions in 1938 and and added to that advantage in 193% . .. Only the St. Louis Browns in the American League present a disturbing problem; otherwise the big-time is in fine condition. In 1939, Joe DiMaggiq was the batting champion of the majors and he may go on to bigger things . . . Bucky Walters, Paul Derringer and Bob Feller were the outstanding pitchers and the three probably will show the way again this year with Feller tabbed to be No. 1...

THE RULE adopted last nmionth that bars the pennant winner in the American League from making a trade with any ether club in the circuit probably will be legislated out of the books at next winter's major convention. That's the opinion of Ed Barrow, president of the champions . . . The rule, proposed by Clarke Griffith of Washington, was aimed at the Yanks, but after passing it the club owners realized they had blundered and sentiment is growing to rescind it . . . It's not a sound rule and youll see it off the books after one year’, Barrow predicted the other day.

“Of course, right now, it prevents us from making any deals,.

but we hadn't planned any, so we aren't hurt. Furthermore,’ our players will have an extra incentive for going out and throttling those seven other clubs next season. I look for the Yankeés to win their fifth straight pennant with just! as much ease as they did in 1939", :

Leonard Discusses Heavyweight Situation BENNY LEONARD, the old lightweight champ who still is active

; in boxing as a referee, predicts that if Heavyweight King Joe Louis: ¢ KP toppled during 1940 it will be by a boxer, not a puncher . , .

Discussing Joe's immediate future Benny says: “1 definitely don’t line up with those who say the man to beat

Louis must be a man who can slug with him and knock him out.

Quite the contrary.. It is boxing history that great sluggers have eir biggest trouble with clever men”. vq " “I think the cleverest heavyweight challenger today is. Bob Pastor. If he fights Joe again he won't make the mistake of.permitting himself to be hit early. He was able to go eleven rounds after almost being knocked out in the first. Why coul t he outbox Louis over 15 or 20 if he keeps his strength and speed?

LEONARD RULES out. Light Heavyweight Champion Billy

. Conn as a heavyweight threat—and not on’ poundage. “An aggressive 175-pounder with a fair punch can stand on even terms with 180 or 200 pound fighters. Conn, to my mind, is purely a defensive fighter. That's all right with men your size. But you can’t counter-fight against an opponent who .can haul you around and take other liberties.” :

Good Weather Indicated for Rose Gridiron Classic.

+ ROSE BOWL, PASADENA, Cal, Jan. 1 (U, P.).—Tennessees fast, smart, and with its goal uncrossed all season, went up against Southern California's three teams ~ of young giants today in the 26th ver-

| |sion of the granddaddy of all bowl

football games. The ‘weather was forecast as “clear: to slightly cloudy.” Good football weather was indicated, in any event. A crowd thick with film stars and other celebrities jam-packed the big, rose-strewn concrete bowl. The game was a sellout, and hundreds gathered hopefully in the .aroyo seco near the bowl in hopes of buying somebbdy’s spare ducat. Scalpers were asking $50 a pair, and few

| to be had.

The game was to start at 4:15 p. m. (Indianapolis Time).

Lots of Money Bet

Southern California ruled a slight pregame favorite, despite its less impressive record of two tie games. Betting odds started out with the Trojans top-heavy favorites. . The odds swung up to almost even money by this week-end on the basis of the sharpness the Overnight they seemed to be jelling at about 5 to 6. ; Lots of money was bet. Special trains brought 1000 or so fans from the Smoky Mountains with their hands full of it and eager to bet. What advantage the Trojans had was chiefly in their ability to keep pouring big, good men into the game. And each team just about as good as the last one. It was the famous. Trojan power, which has worn down many an opposing team that might have stood up and won on a basis of 11 men against 11 men. The Trojans outweighed the Vols 10 pounds per man.

Trojans in Top Shape

U. 8. Cs coach, Howard Jones, said his boys were in top shape, and he had no. alibis whatever happened. After winding up training Saturday, the Southern Californians rested Sunday in a Pasadena hotel overlooking the Rose Bowl. Maj. Bob Neyland, Tennessee's head coach, said “we're ready.” But George (Bad News) Cafego, the allAmerican quarterback, was feared to be good for no more than a quarter, perhaps even less if some tough Trojan stopped him hard and hurt his bad knee. Bob Suffridge, 2l1tAmeriea guard, also had a trick ee

Both Have Good Records The game brought together two teams with great records. The Vols have won 23 successive games. They haven't lost a game since back in 1937, and the last time they were scored on was hy Louisiana State midway in- 1938.. During the past season they swept through 10 games scoring 212 points to a blank for the opposition.

Southern California has come to|

look on the Rose Bowl as a sort of a second home playing field. This is their fifth trip there and they

‘have yet to be beaten on a Jan. 1.

They whipped Pittsburgh, 47 to 14, in 1930; defeated Tulane, 21 to 12, two - years later; steam-rollered Pittsburgh, 35 to 0, in 1933 and

{sneaked past Duke, 7 to 3, last year.

With Macaluso|

Operating the mat card at the Armory tomorrow night will be a one-fall meeting between Ray Eckert, 234, St. Louis, and Len Macaluso, 227, former Colgate. grid star Macaluso has become a favorite with Armory fans.

Washington's Five Favored

Drawings Made for Annual City Cage Tourney.

Washington High School's basket-

‘ball team, possessor of a good early-

season record and benefited by the

draw, appeared the favorite today

for the annual city tournament, to be held Jan. 11-13 at the Tech gym. The Continentals will make their first appearance in the tournament Saturday afternoon, Jan. 13, meet-. ing the Manual Redskins, defending champions. - In the other game that afternoon, the winner of the Tech-Broad Ripple game on Thursday night, Jan. 11, will oppose the winner of the Shortridge-Howe contest, to be played Friday, Jan. 12. The two Saturday afternoon victors will come together in the title contest that evening.

Tech Given Edge

Although | the Tech cagers have had little success during their December campaign, they will be given an edge over the Rockets, while the dope favors Shortridge to advance at the expense of Howe, entered in the annual get-together for the first time. ; Barring upsets, this will bring Tech and Shortridge together in the semi-finals, and a lively battle is promised. The two teams met last week, with the Blue Devils carrying off a 28-26 decision, mainly because Rey were able to convert at the foul ne. I While the Continentals are favored over Manual, the Redskins may surprise much as they did in 1939 when they came out of nowhere to ride to the championship.

Reserve Teams to Play

Besides the varsity contests, the eters teams of the six schools will play. : ; Tickets, priced at $1 for the series and 40 cents for a single session, will go on sale next Monday at the various schools. Players lists are to be submitted by each school a few days before the tournament. Here are the pairings: VARSITY Thursday, Jan. 11 Game 1—8 P. M.—Tech vs. Broad Ripple. 7 Friday, Jan. 12 Game 2—8 P.

which brings together Logansport, Anderson, Muncie Central and New Castle, the latter two fully deserving to rank with the top half-dozen teams in the state.

Second to this battle is the series at Bloomington which calls into action Martinsville, Mitchell, Columbus and the host Bloomington five. All four teams are acknowledged to be tough; Martinsville rates with the best in the state and Blooming-

Four Meet at Peru Third major tournamen:s is the melee at Peru where Mishawaka, tied for the lead in the eastern division of the Northern Indiana high school conference, Rochester, Wa-

bash and Peru meet. ' The latter three clubs are not so strong this year, but can present a gaod struggle, no matter whom they're up against.

The few single games on the docket tonight are definitely headed by the Kokomo-Marion battle on the Giants’ court. This is the rubber battle between the pair, as Kokomo took a two-point decision in the first contest at Marion and the Giants came back to sink the Kats, 27 to 21, at Kokomo last Friday.

Alices Flash Power

The early holiday tourneys ended Saturday night with Vincennes, Muncie Burris and La Porte flashing the most stuff. The Alices, trimmed

more than once already, went to the Jasper battle and took the host five, 24 to 22, in an overtime battle in the afternoon. Then in the evening they dished out a 36 to 34 defeat to Washington to win the major award. Burris, with only one defeat on its record, went to Elwood, downing the host five, 52 to 28, in the first game and then rampaging through Tip-

+» | ton, 48 to 32, in the final. La Porte

won its honors at Valparaiso, taking Valpo, 31 to 29, in an overtime in the first round, and downing Michigan City, 36 to 31, for the tourney title,

Cotton Tilt

Boston-Clemson Clash.

By STEVE SNIDER United Press Staff Correspondent DALLAS, Tex. Jan. 1.—A man who made his dream come true in the face of bitter opposition stages his fourth annual Cotton Bowl

football classic today with a bigtop splurge characteristic of Barnum himself. In the center ring are little Clemson College of South Carolina and Boston College, the pride of ‘New England. The ringmaster is J. Curtis Sanford, who dreamed up the idea and made it stick. An estimated 35,000 will pour into the Cotton Bowl and all but a handful are picking Clemson. Fair, warmer weather was forecast.

Dixie’s Favorite

Clemson, victor over Navy, possessor of a halfback named on many All-America teams, and a record marred only by a one-point defeat by Tulane, was the logical Texas favorite because of its Southern location. They know -all about Clemson down here and Boston College is just another school with a fine football team. There was little wagering by Texans, but. the litflte was at even money. Elsewhere Clemson was. a 2 to 3 favorite. Halfback Banks McFadden, one of the most graceful athletes ever to don football armor, is the reason for the high record accorded to Clemson.” McFadden runs, punts and passes with the best.

Plenty of Entertainment

Boston: College, with a special pass defense designed in mid-season by Coach Frank Leahy, may stop McFadden in the air but “Daddy Longlegs” is just as dangerous on the ground. Boston's Charlie O'Rourke and Vito Ananis, leading passing and scoring combination in the East this season, will carry the offensive load for the New Englanders. Sanford’s show opens shortly after noon with a gigantic parade to the Cotton Bowl, led by 5000 high school musicians. Simple flagraising ceremonies aren’t enough for him. Hell rock the bowl with a bomb barrage and a special San ford skyrocket and will explode a huge parachuted flag over the stadium. Then the national anthem. Then football.

Record Crowd Out for Sun Clash

EL PASO, Tex., Jan. 1 (U. P)—A record crowd was here today for the fifth annual Sun Bowl football game between, Catholic University of Washington, D. C., and Arizona State College of Tempe, Ariz. More than 13,500 spectators were expected to jam the bowl for what promised to be a wide open battle, with plenty of deception, speed and aerial barrages thrown by the opposing teams, The expected stars of the game— Wayne (Ripper Pitts, Arizona State fullback, and Rocco Pirro, Catholic U. fullback—announced that they were in top condition. Catholic’s

Flying Cardinals remained 7-5 choice to win their first game in the deep south.

More Support Given Missouri for Orange Contest..

MIAMI, Fla. Jan. 1 (U. P.) —New Year’s Day came up cool and clear for Georgia Tech and Missouri, which clash today in the battle of the Orange Bowl, and with the kickoff only a matter.of hours away, the betting odds swung over to 6-and-5 “and take your choice.” ; Growing respect for the passing

ability of Missouri's All-America - {Paul

Christman. and the brisk weather, which was expected fo benefit the Midwesterners more than Tech, caused the late shift in the odds. Tech had been a 2-0-3 favorite. A holiday crowd of ‘38,000 was expected to cram every cranny of the palm fringed stadium to see this game in which the accent will be on colorful and eye-pleasing football. With Christman and little Johnny Bosch, Tech’s tiny, 147-pound halfback, in the game, the experts looked. for the major part of the battle to be fought in the air. Bosch’s ladmirers feel he has been underrated and expect him to be more than a match for Christman. | Both squads listed injuries, but these will not hamper their chances. Tech, which tolds a one-third interest in the Southeastern Conference crown, and Missouri's Big Six champions will open with the lineups that started most of their regular season games. f > Tech’s forward wall will average

'193 pounds, three more than Mis-

souri’s. Missouri's ball - carrying quartet, however, will average a shade over 185 pounds and outweigh Tech’s backfield by 19 pounds per man. : Neither Coach Bill Alexander of Tech nor Don Faurot, who may announce his decision after the game on a coaching offer he reportedly received from Stanford, would make any predictions. © ~~

Define Grid Abuses Before Seeking Cure, Layden Urges

By ELMER LAYDEN Notre Dame Football Coach LOS ANGELES, Jan. 1—In 1939 the few but loud and insistent opponents of intercollegiate. athletics kept up the howl of “commercialization.” They pointed the finger of censure particularly at the big “gates” and subsidization. : It would be foolish to deny that any institution, including intercollegiate athletics, is wholly free from abuses from within. What constitutes an abuse is another thing. Take subsidization. To say baldly that an athlete should not be helped through college is to advocate discrimination. A debater or a band boy apparently may-be subsidized without jeopardy to his soul or. anyhody else’s—why not an athlete? The real concern is, what form shall the subsidy take—keeping the best interests of the boy foremost in mind? oy Some who subscribe to the thoroughly American principle of helping the worth student-athlete attain a college education, insist, as

e we do, that he do work

penses. Others believe an out-and-out scholarship should be awarded for athletic ability. The problem is to decide upon a uniform arrangement which is of greatest lasting benefit to the boy. Terry McGovern of the Carnegie Foundation once publicly said that a boy whose first ambition is to get an education, who establishes himself in his preparatory courses as capable of carrying an undergraduate college schedule, who maintains in college a satisfactory scholastic standard, may properly receive any reasonable help the alumni of his school or his friends are prepared to extend, regardless of whether or not he is an athlete. ‘Certainly, high scholastic requirements go far toward weeding out the misguided boys who contemplate going to college mainly for athletic competition. At the same time, the main abuse, overemphasis of athletics, is automatically reduced to a minimum. * Some radical de-emphasizers con= tend that the only proper athletic activity in college is intramural. The trouble with the de-emphasizers is,

they forget human destiny, W large sense a

new worlds to conquer. Specifically, they ignore the fact that the competitive spirit and powers of some boys, be they athletes or debaters, will be satisfied by nothing less than contests with the representatives of other schools. A wellrounded program, athletic and academic, recognizes these differences in the competitive sense and ability of the students. As for subsidization’s twin, the big gate—it just happens that millions of persons every Saturday afternoon enjoy watching intercol= legiate football games. As for the money John Q. Public pays, I challenge the de-emphasizers to name the moral principle violated by the following common uses of foot! revenues: i 1. To pay salaries to coaches, who, in drilling teams to win football games, are charged with an important part in developing | qualities of character useful i life after college. i = 2. To buy modérn equipment which enables the boys who want to play football to do so with far

less

3. To build stadiums, if you please, providing not only a place for the players to play but space for more persons to watch them play. : 4. To support other representative sports, which, at the moment, may not have enough public appeal to be self-sustaining. boi 5. To hanes oi intramural program of athletics. I Some critics attack intercollegiate sports because muckraking pays by the word or in terms of notoriety.

70,000 at Sugar Tilt

Texas Cash Shoves Aggies Into Favorite’s Role.

By LESLIE AVERY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 1 (U. P.).— The annual Sugar Bowl football game brought the powerful Texas Aggies into battle today against an equally rugged Tulane eleven before a record ‘Southern crowd of 70,000. ‘There is so little to choose between these two great teams which: went through the 1939 season un< defeated that the odds were even— 11 to 10 and take your pick in the gambling © shops—until a heavy week-end influx of Texas oil and cattle money shoved the Aggies into 8-5 favorites with prospects of the price reaching 2-1 kickoff time at 1:15 p. m. There will be no further question of the South’s largest sports crowd after today’s game because this huge outpouring of fans will top any previous claims by more than

,000.

Coaches Predict Tough One

Both clubs are so well balanced offensively and defensively that Coaches Homer Norton of the Aggies and ‘Lowell (Red) Dawson of Tulane predict the toughest game of the season for their respective teams

Tulane almost was toppled off the

undefeated pedestal when North

Caroling passed its way to two late touchdowns for a 14-14 tie, and it was only the margin of a point after touchdown that enabled the Green Wave to roll over Clemson: 7-6 in its opening game of the sea=’ son. The Aggies also got a “little concerned” when their offense was checked, and they barely nosed Santa Clara, 7-3, and 8S. M. U,, 6-2, Aggies Go on Ground ‘

For a Southwestren Conference champion, Texas A, and M. used: the pass so little this year that most: fans accredit Norton's success to & determined return to the fundamental blocking and tackling factics he employed at Centenary, but Nor~ ton, himself, denies: this. He ex=. plains that “effective use” of the pass to improve the Aggies’ running attack, has enabled his team to hold areial maneuvers, and “throwing the ball around” to a minimum. However, in blasting through a tough 10-game intersectional schedule the Aggies, with Marion Pugli doing m of the tossing, let go 166 passes to gain 948 yards. Tuelane tried but 47 aerials, which were good for 215 yards, but the Green Wave was vastly superior when it came to a running attack, piling up 2343 yards to the Aggies’ 1504, Texas was a better defensive club, holding opponents to 412 yards and 54 first downs compared tq 448 yards and 70 first downs allowed by Tulane. >

Tech All Alone in

Tech’s basketball team was all alone in the cellar of the North Central Conference today after lose ing a week-end encounter to Riche mond’s Red Devils, 30-26, at the East Side gym. 5 iY The triumph was the Red Devil's first in league competition, while the defeat was the sixth of the season for Tech, which hasn't turned in a victory since its opener in November against Cathedral. The Big Green team made its b threat early in the third quarter, cutting the visitors’ margin to 17-14, but Richmond jumped away after that and held a 23-16 edge at the three-quarter mark. The Red Devils ended another Tech by “freezing” the ball - during| the last few minutes of the | : i : :
