May Boycott Rocket Games

~ Pro Loop to ‘Take Up’ McKeever's Action

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 13 (UP)—The Ed McKeever bombshell continued to sputter and sizzle on the campus of the University of San Francisco today--but gave all indications it may explode like a booby trap under the coach’s own chair. The former USF coach—now with the professional Chicago Rockets—tossed. his time bomb Wednesday in the form of a “white letter” accusing the San Francisco institution of using a score of ineligible players and

its athletes. First indication that the coach's blast may shake the foundations of his own pro football job came yesterday from Tony Morabito, president of the San Francisco 49’ers, who sald McKeever's action would be “taken up” at an All-America Conference meeting {in Chicago this week-end. Twenty Players Eligible San Francisco fans were |threatening to boycott McKeever's i Rockets when they come to play {the 49'ers here this year in an leffort to force him out of his | professional coaching spot.

After trailing, 25-21, at the half, Indianapolis came back in the third quarter to make 20 straight points and gain the lead until the final minutes of the fourth stanza. Oshkosh made a quick recovery and tied the game at 54-54 as the gun sounded.

Stanky Wants More $$, Not Baseball Knowledge

By CARL LUNDQUIST, United Press Sports Writer .." NEW YORK, Feb, 13-- Branch Rickey was working his way up to the letter “S8" today at which time he expects to havea full head of steam to deal with Second Basemin Eddie Stanky in his alphabetical disposal of Brooklyn Dodger salary problems. -

Aside from Jackie Robinson, in order to provide an appropriat birthday, Rickey has been signing his players more or less in alphabetical order. Thus far he has gotten to Cal Abrams, Dan Bankhead, Jack Banta, Hank Behrman, Bobby Bragan, Ralph Branca, Tom Brown and Hugh Casey, in just about that order. The methodical master of the Dodger destinies virtually wound up the “B-C" section of negotiations yesterday without resorting to headache powder when he revealed that his portly relief pitcher, Casey, had gone on the doted line for about $17,000. Rob-

paying “substantial salaries” to!inson, the “guest star” in the

“B-C"_ group said he was “very pleased” with his new contract, which was believed to be for about $15,000. Rickey, who admitted he might have a “few holdouts” also was expected to have trouble when he got to Pete Reiser, his veteran outfielder who wants $20,000 or a raise of about $5000: Stanky, who said at his home in Mobile,

Ala, that he was offered “about

$40,000 worth of baseball knowledge and a very small raise” in a conference with Rickey indicated he was “sitting tight.” Meanwhile, holdout trouble plagued Cleveland's Bill Veeck for the first time since he took over the Indians. Jim Hegan, first string catcher who got $7500 last year and was offered $11,000 for 1948, refused to sign and Veeck reluctantly tagged him a holdout. The Philadelphia Athletics acquired First Baseman Rudy York from the free agent ranks, state ing he was picked up for pinch hitting purposes.
