That Shuffle Off to Buffalo Has Caught Up With Buddy
By JACK CUDDY United Press Staff’ Correspondent
NEW YORK, Dec. 18.—Naturally the New York Yankees are trying to build back to world championship strength, but in yesterday’s four player deal with the Cléveland Indians that sent Catcher Buddy Rosar to the Ohio metropolis, we sensed discipline. During the hot days of last July, Rosar tried to buck two of the strictest disciplinarians in baseball—Manager Joe McCarthy and Presi-

TRIKE S
. By FRED FITZSIMMONS A Big League Bowler, Too BECOME FORM conscious. The test of this is your position at the foul line after you have released the ball and followed through. The outstanding characteristic of. a bowler who shoots for perfection is his position at this point. His farthest foot is always the same distance from the line. He is not dancing on one foot to avoid a foul. The arm should be brought down in a straight and natural motion. The ball itself, at the height of the swing, is two or three inches above the shoulder. Do not twist the arm.
Keep it the same distance from the body to insure control. If the arm is brought ‘straight down, without
any lateral motion, you will know
where the ball is going.
8 t 4 #” : AT THE LINE you should still be
erect in respect to your torso, with the left leg bent at the knee and the right extending back .and balanced in a semi-split.
’
The shoulders should: be parallel with the foul line, the head and ‘body pointed directly at the pins. The left, or free arm, may be extended either to the right or left for balance, or rested on the left
The. ‘entire . motion and finish should be smooth, without exertion. This will come with the bowler’s determination to achieve a form pattern which must be practiced until it is mechanical. Next: The hook.

Buddy Rosar
dent Ed Barrow of the ‘Yanks. Rosar got away with his goofy, in dependent move—temporarily. But all of the writers who knew McCarthy and Barrow predicted that Rosar’s mid-summer trip to Buffalo, N. Y., would catch up with him. And it did yesterday. We happened to be sitting in the press box at Yankee stadium that Sunday afternoon when the Rosar story broke—when it was announced that Buddy Rosar had jumped the club and shuffled off to Buffalo to take an examination for the Buffalo police force. And that Rollie Hemsley had been brought in to take over the Yanks’ back-stopping duties in place of injured’ Bill Dickey. Hemsley, a confirmed “bad boy” of baseball, had been given his outright release by Cincinnati. But
lhe arrived at Yankee stadium and
caught both ends of a double-head-er against the Chicago White Sox. Did Grand Jeb When that twin bill was over— and Hemsley did a grand catching job—we cornered McCarthy in. his little cubicle off the Yanks’ dress“What about Rosar?” McCarthy, whose home town also| Ind is Buffalo, was sore as a boil. But
he muffled his smouldering anger, Bi “I don’t know what action| Central
and said: will be taken against Rosar, but something will be’ done.”
It was. Rosar was find $250 be-| ZY!
‘fore he rejoined the Yankee squad. But he wasn’t suspended. McCarthy
needed him, but McCarthy wasn’t|{E
finished with him, nor was Ed Barrow. Buddy had flaunted their authority in a crisis. He had asked permission to go to Buffalo, and McCarthy had told him he couldn’t do it because of Bill Dickey’s injury. Groomed to Take Over Rosar, playing his fourth season with the Yanks, returned to the club and distinguished himself as perhaps the best catcher in the American league. Although he batted only about .230 in 69 games, he made only one error and was charged with only two passed balls. Under normal conditions, the Yanks would have folded: Rosar to their bosom, because veteran Bill
Dickey, the first-string catcher, was
beginning to fade, after 13 seasons behind the Yankee plate. And Rosar was being groomed to take over.
But Rosar is gone now--gone to
the Indians, with no catching re-
placement being made in the Cleve-| land deal. President Barrow seemed quite calm about the whole affair last night. He emphasized that the Yanks can call upon Ken Sears of the Kansas Oity club and Aaron Robinson of Newark’s farm. “We'll be all right behind the plate,” Barrow said. But Barrow admitted this fourplayer deal was only the first in a robust attempt to strengthen the Yanks. What was the next deal he and McCarthy were contemplating? Barrow evaded with this question: “Can you play first base?” . “No—only left field,” we replied. “That's too bad,” Barrow concluded. “Our big problem still is unsolved.” -

‘Fire Wagon Basketball Will Get Acid Test
Purdue’s clash with undefeated Notre Dame tomorrow night offers significant insight into the Boilermakers’ 1942-43 basketball destinies
‘las Piggy Lambert's modified ver-
sion of “fire wagon” play gets its acid test. Reports have made the rounds that the wily Lambert, realizing his
material was not of the world-beat-
ing variety, sought to inject a dase of the old “set play” style into Purdue’s usual ultra-fast break. It has proved effective as the Boilermakers defeated Wabash and Butler,
. |but Piggy's boys have found it dif-
ficult to hold their play to a set style after serving years as exponents of the fire-wagon brand. The Irish, boasting outstanding triumphs over Ball State, Western Michigan, Northwestern and Wisconsin, used fast breaking and swift passing to rack up 223 points, almost 56 per game. So, it will be a case of two bitter rivals matching their fire-wagon style, with Purdue adding a dash of the old set play. Background Game Two college conference contests

Beau Jack Is
NEW YORK, Dec. 18 (U. P.).— Beau Jack, Negro ex-bootblack of Augusta, Ga., is favored at 8-5 to beat Tippy Larkin of Garfield, N. J, tonight at Madison Square garden for the vacated lightweight championship of the world. Jack is favored because of his youth, ruggedness and “perpetual motion” style in what probably is the strangest tilt in the history of the 135-pound division. The lightweight throne is vacant because champion Sammy Angott of Washington, Pa., retired due to recurrent hand injuries. It was alleged in certain quarters that Angott retired because of gangster pressure—that he quit because he wouldn't “do business” in his fights. Angott and his manager, Charley Jones, have denied these charges.
8-5 Favorite
Angott retired .on the same day that Beau Jack became No. 1 challenger by stopping top-rated Allie Stolz at the ‘garden.
The New York Boxing commission and the National Boxing association immediately united in planning a lightweight tourney in which the ultimate winner would be king (5 of the 135-pounders. But the ink scarcely was dry on that announcement, when the New York commission announced that the Beau Jack-Larkin winner would be champion and would defend the title later against the winner of:a tourney among other contenders. The National Boxing association shrieked that it had been ‘“doublecrossed” on this plan. And only yesterday, the California commission
engagement, Ball State opens its leaglle season at Franklin, and Manchester faces a strong Huntington five. Manchester's narrow victory over Valparaiso Wednesday gave the Spartans two loop wins and no defeats. Huntington has maintained a .667 average by winning four out of six games, more than any other loop team has played. The Irish-Boilermaker tussle was expected to feature Allen Menke of Purdue and Bobby Faught of Notre Dame in the high scoring roles. Menke, brother of Indiana’s Bill and Bob Menke, has scored 34 points in three games to mainstay Lambert's attack. Faught, 6-feet-5-inch junior center, hiked his total|’ to 42 by hitting for 18 points in the overtime triumph over Wisconn Two of the nation’s veteran coaches, Lambert and George Keogan, have a big stake in the game for rivalry reasons. Lambert, starting his 26th year as Boilermaker coach, has won six Big Ten crowns, shared five and was runner-up four times. Keogan, in his 20th season has 319 victories and 95 losses for
