ALTHOUGH the erican Association in 1940 boasted a powerful array sluggers and long distance clouters, not one in the le~gue‘was able to collect a home run in every one of the eight parks. ... No one, in fact,

even missed in only one inclosure. Ab Wright of Minneapolis, leading hitter of the league and also the No. 1 purveyor of home runs, with 39 to his credit, collected 30 of that number in his home park, four more in St. Paul, two each in Indianapolis and Louisville and one in Columbus, while failing to negotiate the barrier in Toledo, Kansas City and ‘Milwaukee. : ; a Bobby - Estalella, Minneapolis, and Fred Sington and George Lady, both of Louisville, were the only players in the league who chalked home runs in as many as six of the eight parks. Estalella, who accounted for 32 circuit drives, missed out in Toledo and Columbus; Sington, who got 10, missed in Columbus and his own park, and Lacy, with eight for the season, missed out in

“Joe Fears for Yankee Pals

Off to Dallas Grid Festival

By JOE WILLIAMS NEW YORK, Dec. 26.—It won't be so tough on the football play-

ers, who will be subject to certain health-forming restraints, but we think in all fairness ‘the war correspondents accompanying the Fordham team should have been warned. You don’t just drop into a town like Dallas, especially on a sporting expedition, casually or as a matter of course. If you do you are not long for this worst of all possible worlds. Already - some hint of what the onrushing strangers must face on 7 their srivel ho 1 morrow has sifted Williams through the adroitly devised censorship which veils the fiendish operations of the gay blades of Dallas. Coach James Crowley and his men, who are to face the Texas Aggies in the Cotton Bowl New Year's, are to be hauled through the streets in the “reddest and biggest fire engine in the state of Texas.” This is just a come-on, a blind to ensnare the war correspondents inte a feeling of innocent gaiety. Fireworks Later

That's the way the trouble always starts in Dallas. On a mild if not somewhat garish note. After that come the fireworks which proceed on a progressively devastating scale until, after two or three days and nights, the innocent victims, having had no sleep or food, find themselves screaming for protective custody. This invasion threatens fo be particularly destructive to the human mind and body because of the prominence of one Dick Andrade in the Cotton Bowl picture. Mr. Andrade is listed as vice president in charge of hell raising. Having observed the tall New Jersey fugitive in operation at close range, the helpless war correspondents have our profound sympathy. They may get over it but theyll never -Jook the same. Like a good race horse, Mr. Andrade doesn’t have to carry his track around with him. He's a fast breaker and a stayer ‘in any kind of going, on the road or the home grounds. He's the gentleman who turned Louisville upside down the week Lawrin won the Derby, and anybody who's beén in Louisville during Derby week, knows this takes a lot of turning.

Paraded for Horse

Mr. Andrade was strictly a Lawrin man. The night before the race he sponsored a parade through the downtown streets. It was paced by two Negroes carrying a hanner which spanned the street. It read: “pon’t be a sucker. Bet on Lawrin.” As you can see, Mr. Andrade is not a man who keeps a good thing all for himself. : 5 Ever since Fordham was selected, Mr. Andrade has been on .the long distance phone seeking to entice New York gullibles into his web of

You can be reasonably sure the gentleman will still be talking when you get up at noon, ¢ He'll Have Help

By now you may be disposed to agree that Mr. Andrade, working alone, is dangerous encugh, but when we tell you he is to be assisted in entertaining (which is the tender euphemism they use in Dallas)by one E, E. or Buddy Fogelson, you will get a better appreciation of how really grim the situation is. If there is any difference between Mr. Andrade and Mr. Fogelson as an enemy to longevity it is very slight and lies in the determination of one to out-do the other. You may recall that Mr. Fogelson was around here last winter leading the sports drive of the Finnish relief fund. This required contact with some of the town’s most expert stay-ups. Mr. Fogelson seemed to sense he was meeting no popovers. Instead of being discouraged he accepted this as a challenge. Before the campaign had entered the second week Mr. Fogelson had the field completely to himself. What's more the demand for relief had grown. Besides the Finns, Mr. Fogelson now had an army of battered and dazed sun dodgers to nurse back to something approximating life. We fear the remains of some of his victims are still turning to gray ashes under tables in Johnny Hogan’s Irish House.. We went down to the station to see the war correspondents off for Dallas. Most of them are old, close friends. We never expect to see them again; if so we know we won't be able to recognize them. It was all very sad, like saying good-bye to blood kin off to war.

Confirmation of Blaik’s ‘acceptance of the Army offer came last night from Brig. Gen. Robert L. Eichelberger, superintendent of the academy. “The uncertainty of being able to secure desired Army officer football coaches during the existing national

‘| emergency, was one factor consid-

ered in making the change,” Gen. Eichelberger said.

Goes to Ft. Bliss

Blaik succeeds Capt. William Wood, who completed his threeyear coaching assignment this season, and will return to.active duty at Ft. Bliss, Tex., in February. Of the Jour civilian assistants Blaik is bringing to the Point, line coach Harry O. Ellinger also has an Army background. He entered West Point in 1921 on an appointment from the Pennsylvania National Guard and was a guard on the football team alongside Army’s great center Ed Garbisch. Both Blaik and Ellinger were assistant football coaches at’ West Point for several years. They served under Biff Jones, Maj. Ralph Sasse and Lieut. Gar Davidson until Blaik was made head coach at Dartmouth in 1933 and Ellinger followed him there.

Made Fine Record

Blaik also is bringing to West Point backfield coach Andy Gustafson, end coach Frank Moore, and freshman coach Averill Daniell. In his seven seasons at Dartmouth, Blaik’s teams won 45 games, lost 15 and tied four. His 1937 club was undefeated. Meanwhile at Hanover, Dartmouth officials were so stunned by Blaik’s resignation, that they have had no time to think of his successor as head football coach, a spokesman said. William H. McCarter, director of athletics, said: “We regret that Coach Earl Blaik has felt it his duty to go to West Point, and con-

Caps Lose Fisher as Wings Replace Injured Carveth

Joe Fisher, flashy Capital forward, was called to service by the Detroit Red Wings, Indianapolis’ parent club, today to replace ‘Joe Carveth, who suffered a possible fracture of the left leg last night as the Wings beat’ the Toronto Maple Leafs, 3 to 2.

wingman, was out-of action most of last season because of a fracture at almost the identical spot. The injury last night came in a collision with Hank Goldup of Toronto. As the National Leagues club moved to bloster its chances for the ennant, the Indianapolis icers were speeding home from the East to prepare for their game with the Cleveland Barons in the Coliseum

Incidentally, Fisher was the only Capital to get a goal last night as the Rhode Island Reds of Providence staged their own private little klitzkrieg against the Hooseri team and. plastered a 6 to 1 defeat on the record of the locals. Off to a rousing start with two goals in the first period, the Rhode Islanders never were headed and broke down the Capitals’ resistance with a flashy passing attack. Although injuries forced the Easterners- to form new combinations against the Caps, the result was never in doubt. " An air-tight defense held the Caps helpless except for one spurt which resulted in the goal for Fisher with assists from Butch McDonald and Connie Brown. . It was an off night for Les Douglas and Archie Wilder who rejoined

of a deal with the Red Wings Monday. Neither of the flashy per-

shots. The game was the only mid-week contest for the Capitals. The Caps will have a full evening on their hands Sunday night, if last night's display by the Cleveland Barons is indicative. The Barons went on a rampage at Philadelphia last night and humbled the Ram-

Blaik Answers Army’s Call And Quits Dartmouth Post To Coach at The Point

Returns to Academy as First Civilian Football Mentor and Takes His Assistants With Him

WEST POINT, N. Y., Dec. 26 (U. P.).—The Army to|day put its football destinies into civilian hands, the big, capable hands of Earl (Red) Blaik, a U. S. Military Academy graduate who has been released from his coaching con-

tract at Dartmouth to take over the West Point assignment. Blaik, who graduated with a second lieutenant’s commission ‘in 1920, will bring his entire staff from Dartmouth sometime during ‘the winter to be ready to take full charge of spring football practice.

CORAL GABLES, Fla., Dec. 26 (U. P.).—Jockey Earl Dew of Sac City, Iowa, was still three up over Walter Lee Taylor of Houston, Tex., in the race toward the national riding championship today—but at fisticuffs he could get nothing better © than a draw. The two 19-year-olds swung punches after the third race at " Tropical Park here yesterdy, but they fought to no decision. The embroglio grew out of the duel between Dew, astride Molest, and Taylor, who was up on Best Quality. Other riders stepped in and stopped . the flare-up, and Chief Steward Tom Thorp attributed the outbreak to “competitive spirit.” The riding race remained at the status quo when Dew romped home aboard Hazel F. in the second event and Taylor countered with a last-minute score on Endymion in the eighth. At the end of the day the count was—Dew 283, Taylor 280. There are six more riding days until the end of the year, since Dew will fly to California tomorrow night to take advantage of the Agua Caliente program on Sunday.

It is difficult to leave, put in these times, to return to West Point is not only a challenge, but a duty and a privilege.”

Miami Anglers Bait the Hooks

By JACK WOLISTON United Press Staff Correspondent

MIAMI, Fla. Dec. 26 (U., P.)— A parade of gaily-decorated fishing cruisers down Biscayne Bay Jan. 7 will touch off metropolitan Miami's

considered the greatest single competitive sports event in the nation. Thomas Aitken, director of the event, estimated today that more than 200,000 persons of both sexes would ‘fish the waters adjacent to this winter resort during the 99day tournament, which closes April 217. : 3 The participants will seek more than $15,000 in prizes, including the coveted $1500 silver sailfish statuette, now in the possession of Ruth W. Edmonds, of Newton Center, Mass., who won it in 1939 with a Her catch was

the trophy will remain in her pos-

session until her feat is surpassed.

Offers Prizes Galore

Aitken said 80 grand prizes for 42 species of game fish will be awarded at the close of competition this year. In addition, he said, there will be about 500 daily, weekly and special prizes. : The tournament drew 161,000 participants from every state in the nation and several foreign countries in 1940, a 30 per cent increase over the preceding year. Only 2500 anglers participated in the first tournament in 1936. Forty per cent of the entries in 1940 were women, and it was a woman, Mrs. Milton Lusk, of Falmouth, Mass., who landed the big= gest fish of the tournament—a 621pound blue marlin. Aitken believed there would be even a bigger representation of women in the 1941 competition. In its flve-year history the tournament has produced two men’s world record catches—a 161-pound

white marlin, boated by L. F, Hoop-

er, New York banker, in 1938, and a 263% -pound bonita, landed by Billy McConnell, of Bristol, Va., in 1940. Lands a Whopper

In addition to the world’s record hung up by’Miss Edmonds with her sailfish, another world’s record for women was made by Mrs. Richard . obson, of Miami Beach, ;in ‘1939. She landed a 34%-pound crevalle, which topped the old record by eight ounces. Among new trophies to be added this yean, Aitken said, will be one donated by Philip Wylie, magazine writer and novelist, which will be dubbed the “tough luck trophy.” It will go to the angler best describing in writing “the one that got away.” : The tournament again is divided into two divisions. Prizes will be awarded for 30 species of fish in the Florida division and for 12

Opening day of the tournament is a colorful affair. Scores of cruisers, decorated with flags and flowers,. move down Biscayne Bay to the fishing grounds in the Atlantic. Hundreds of spectators line the causeway between = Miami and Miami Beach and airplares overhead and drop garlands of flowers in the path of the fleet.

Lewis Morrill, university vice president and chairman of the athletic board: Holman and Faurot are to meef with them late today. St. John said he had the “consent” of Frank McCormick, Minnesota athletic director, to talk to Hauser as soon as convenient. The Minnesota line tutor will attend the Rose Bowl game in California and likely will not see the Ohio State heads until afterwards.

St. John observed that Hauser|

“has expressed some interest in our position.” . St. John Says ‘Wait’ « A final selection for the Buckeye gridiron post will be made “as soon as it is expeditious,” St. John said. “Any conference naturally has some significance but should not lead to the drawing of conclusions either for the person being interviewed nor to the detriment of others who may be interviewed,” he added. Schmidt and his entire corps of assistants “resigned” on Dec. 16, shortly after it was reported the athletic board would ask formally for them to quit.

Nebraska’s Vucinich Is Doubtful Starter

" By HENRY M’LEMORE United Press Staff ‘Correspondent

PASADENA, Cal., Dec. 26 —Clark Shaughnessy left the University of Chicago to get away from six-man football, but now it looks as if that is what he might have to play in the Rose Bowl. Shaughnessy’s Stanford Indians really are the vanish-

' ling Americans. They have

been vanishing from the practice field to the doctor's office and the hospital at the rate

of two and three a day. They're not specializing on any one ailment, either, but ratiter they are playing the field. Some have had the flu, some have had colds, and some have had both of these plus tendon, ligament and kneecap, trouble. : Vucinich’s Leg Injured

Fullback Milt Vucinioh was still hobbling with a leg jnjury suffered in a scrimmage pileup and it is doubtful he will be able to play against Nebraska. Shaughnessy is clinging to the hope that all the. other ailing Indians will be able to. play. : ~The Stanfords (with a huge red cross painted atop their special car, I presume) are scheduled to gather in this city of roses today. In order to carry on an intelligent conversation witn the coaching staff and players I have been reading up on medicine in my almanac. From what I've heard the boys don’t discuss football much anymore, but spend their time exchanging recipes for cough syrup, discussing the merits of kerosene and sugar, framing their X-ray plates and autographing one another's mustard plasters. Even Coach Shaughnessy is said to have been influenced by the medical talk and is considering scrapping the famed T formation for a Rose Bowl offense based on Harvey's theory of the circulation of the blood. Doctor For a Scout

What a break it would have been for Nebraska if Coach Biff Jones had been: far-sighted enough to have engaged a competent doctor to scout the Indians. A doctor could have brought back a much more comprehensive diagnosis than any ordinary football scout. This may be an extraordinary football game between Stanford and Nebraska on New Year's day, at that. From Phoenix, where the Nebraska team has turned cesert rat and is toughening itself by scrimmaging midst the cacti, word comes that sickness and injury have hit .the Cornhuskers and that they, too, may stagger into the bowl from the workings of an ambulance. Flu has hit some of the players and camp followers and “there is much coughing and sneezing going on. 3 . v Beware of Sneezes

However, the Nebraska squad was cheered with the return of Quarter= . back Harry Hopp to the lineup. Hopp has recovered from an attack of influenza. Unless the two teams regain their health before kick-off time, certain

‘|changes in the rules for the games

will have to be made.. For instance, there will have to be a penalty written in for the illegal use of the sneeze. It would be unfair for an ailing tackle on one team to threaten a healthy opposing tackle ‘with a sneeze that might send him to bed for a week with an attack of grippe. Too, there will have to be a rule
