r JH'IIE team that finished in seventh place in the 1932 Amer
ican Association race, the St. Paul Saints, was high over
all in fielding, official averages disclose, proving the boys must
-show some punch at the plate no matter how well they shine
on defense. Minneapolis, the pennant winner, was second in
club fielding as well as in club batting.
Indianapolis wound up fourth in team fielding, sixth in club bat
tling and fifth in the standing, indicating the Hoosiers hit off some sort
of a balance in hitting and fielding and position in the running. St. Paul
fielded .976 to top the Hickey loop; Minneapolis was next with .971;
Milwaukee third with .969 and Indianapoiis next with .965.
St. Paul executed 205 double plays for high; Milwaukee was second
with 174, and Indianapolis was sixth with 145. The lone triple play was
turned in by the Saints. Todt of St. Paul led regular first sackers with
.996. McCann of the Indians, in only fifty-four games, tied Todt; Lowell
of the Indians, in thirteen games, played errorless ball; Cooney of the
Indians had a mark of .994 in twenty games and Wingard of the Indians
, fielded .985 in eighty-five games. Todt played 168 games.
Sigafoos of the Indians topped the regular second sackcrs with a
mark of .980 and Jefferies of St. Paul was second among regulars with
.975. Whitehead, Columbus, and Connolly, Milwaukee, were others well
up. Ganzel of Minneapolis was best among third basemen with .958.
Beck of St. Paul led the shortstops with .959 and Goldman of the
Indians was far down the list with .920. In the outfield the high men
were Durst, St. Paul, .991; Mowry, Minneapolis. .984, and Layne, Louis
ville, .984. Tw’clve pitchers escaped without a miscue and best fielding
catchers were Griffin, Minneapolis, .993; Pytlak, Toledo, .992, and Sprinz,
Columbus, .991. Angley of the Indians fielded .980 and Riddle was
down to .960.

PARMELEE TOPS PITCHERS IN A. A.
BUD PARMELEE, Columbus, won 14 games and lost 1, to top the
pitchers of the A. A. on won and lost basis. It will be impossible
to produce the earned run averages of the pitchers on account of the fact
no official scores were received on games ployed in Columbus.
Other high regular moundsmen were Benton, Mineapoiis, 18 and 7;
Polli, Milwaukee, 14 and 6; W. Lee, Columbus, 20 and 9; H. Smith, Kan
sas City, 17 and 8; William Thomas, Indianapolis, 12 and 6; Vanden
berg, Minneapolis, 11 and 6; Ryan, Minneapolis, 22 and 13.
Joe Hcving of Indianapolis won 15 games and lost 9; Cooney was
10 and 6; Horne, 1 and nothing; Buttzerger, 1 and nothing; Berly, 4
and 1; Wingard, 7 and 7; Barnhart, 5 and 5; Bolen, 7 and 11; Burwell,
and 8; Campbell. 10 and 19; G. Smith, nothing and 1.
Bean of Toledo won 20 and lost 14; and Van Alta of St Paul won
22 and 17. Bean pitched 304 innings, and Van Atta worked 303. Slim
. Harriss, St. Paul, worked 310 innings and won 13 games and lost 22.
Slim saw service in 50 games. Ryan of Minneapolis was in 60, but only
’iii 196 innings. Petty of Minneapolis won 16 and lost 10 and was in 52
games.

NEW GRID WIZARD ONCE COACHED BUCKS
EVERY time Southern California university wins a football game, a lot
of Ohio State alumni run for the headache tablets. The Trojans
have won twenty tilts in a row and haven’t been on the down side of
the score since St. Mary's of Oakland knocked ’em off in the early part
pf the 1931 season, 13 to 7.
The coach of Southern California is Howard Jones and he is hailed
as the successor to the late Knute Rockne as the big grid chief over all
In the country. Jones was grid mentor at Ohio State in 1910 and finished
the season with one defeat and three tied games to mar his record.
The setback was at the hands of Case, 14 to 10.
Jones’ Bucks tied Michigan university, and the Michigan eleven in
t,hose days feared no team and seldom was a victim of anybody’s cleats.
However, Jones lasted just the one season. He resigned, or was asked
to seek other pastures. Anyway, he wasn’t back at Ohio State in 1911.
The university at Columbus has a reputation for being tough on
football coaches, but it probably would welcome the return of Mr. H.
Jones, the new wizard of the white lines.

THE depression has been a hard blow to big league coaches. The
Chicago White Sox abolished the position, releasing Butler and
Gunningnam; the Cubs cast adrift the veteran Charlie O’Leary and now
even Jimmy Burke no longer is with the Yankees. The long friendship
between Burke and Manager Joe McCarthy failed to save the rotund and
-smiling James. Burke has lived on the fat of the land with Cubs and
Yankees and it will be something strange to see McCarthy without Burke
dogging his steps.
a a a a a a
The Yankees were liberal with catcher Bill Dickey last year, how
~cver. It is said the club paid the SI,OOO fine and also his salary during
the thirty days he was suspended for breaking Carl Reynolds’ jaw.
a a a a a a
IT'OR the past seven years the leading pitcher of the National League
has slumped the following season. The jinx climbed aboard Dazzy
'Vance in 1925 and in successive seasons the same fate knocked off Ray
Kremer, Jess Haines, Larry Benton, Charlie Root, Fred Fitzsimmons and
Claude Derringer. After learning of this unusual situation Lon Warneke
will have something to worry about down in the Arkansas hills this winter.

ROWLAND has bobbed up as g prospective purchaser of
J the defunct Toledo Club. It is said Rowland wants to get out of
.. Albany of the International League. The Toledo franchise is in the
hands of a receiver and can be purchased for $60,000, but a group of
Toledo citizens is trying to gain control and so far Rowland has been
•• stymied. The Hen franchise was valued at $300,000 a few years ago.
The club will have to be rebuilt entirely, if it is to operate. Cleveland
was in charge there last year and took away all of the talent.

" t ' c Three members of the mound staff of the Philly Nationals met in
Chicago the other day and the conversation indicated there might have
been some New Year cheer handy. Said Snipe Hansen: “The old Sniper
is going to win twenty games this year. ’ Said Ed Holley: “You can put
me down for eighteen.” Phil Collins, veteran, poured a little cold water
on the hot stove session and said: “Well, 111 be satisfied with fourteen.”

Williams Breaks Sprint Records to Get Drink —(of Tea)
BY JOE WILLIAMS
New York World-Tfirgram Sports Editor
NEW YORK, Jan. 10.—There is
another English fighter in our
midst, one Seaman Watson.
Strangely, Watson is called Seaman
because he has been to sea. He
used to be a member of the King's
navee. He's over here to fight Kid
Chocolate for the featherweight
championship. And to pick up a
few stray shillings.
1 No one seems to know whether
Watson can fight or not. The box
ing commission has its doubts. Ac
cordingly, it has been arranged for
the Englishman to give a formal
exhibition of his skill before a crit
ical jury. He is to appear in a gym
nasium against a picked opponent.
On the outcome of this clinical dem
onstration depends, supposedly, his
American debut.

CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Jan.
10.—Butler's Bulldogs, displaying
more power than in any of their
early-season home games, tripped a
battling Wabash five here Monday
night, 31 to 27.

Monday. Butler's margin of tri

BY GEORGE H. BEALE
Press Staff Correspondent
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 10.—Led by
big Craig Wood, who carried the
cash for first place in the Los An
geles open, the golfers making the
annual Pacific coast tournament
swing were en route to Agua Cali
ente today for the border resort’s
$7,500 open which starts Wednes
day.
And most of the divot diggers, if
the truth be told, felt like swinging
their brassies at Wood's blond head,
for when he breezed in ahead of
the field at Wilshire Country Club
Monday he won his third coast
tournament in as many starts.
He took first money at San Fran

four strokes the next best scores
here.

collegiate ball, gave the capital city
performers a very busy evening.
Joyce, speedy forward, also per

with Baird taking down second

It was a rough game, nineteen
personal fouls being called. Five
times in the first half the teams

the Bulldogs rushed ahead. 18 to 13,
at intermission. In the last half,
after the score was tied at 21-all.
the lead changed hands several
times.
Two Wabash regular pastimers
were missing from the action. Cris

Land and Holdout War Rumbles
BY JACK CUDDY
United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Jan. 10.—The big
league seasonal holdout war was
rumbling on all fronts today.
A survey of the salary and hold
out situation in the major clubs
showed curves with players’ salaries
trending down and prospects of loud
howls going up. One line remains
constant: The price line for grand
stand and bleacher seat, f. o. b.
This survey reveals that when
player contracts are mailed this
week, some athletes on virtually
every club in the major circuits
will receive salary cuts, and that
owners anticipate considerable
skirmishing before they march back
to the fold.
Sidney Weil, president of the
Cincinnati Reds, crystallized the sit
uation perfectly when he reported:
“It’s no secret that players’ sala
ries will'be cut, not only by the Cin
cinnati club, but by every major
league club.”

CHICAGO, Jan. 10.—Western
conference basketball teams have
until Saturday to recover from their
confusion and set about resuming
their titular wrangle.
The defeat of Purdue by North
western Monday night at Evanston,

Sarazen Is
Flu Victim
By Times Special
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 10.—Gene
Sarazen. British and United States
open golf champion, was recovering
here today from an attack of in
fluenza. He was forced to with
draw from the Los Angeles open

round Monday.
He was in a state of collapse when

not know we had a flyweight cham
pion.
Mason was ordinary and Wilde
won without much exertion, putting
forth a fine exhibition, none the less.
The day before the fight I was
sitting in the hotel lobby with Ed
Smith, the veteran referee. Wilde
came along. “Would you gentlemen
like a little drink?” he inquired
courteously.
Smith and myself broke the A.
A. U. record for all the dashes in
our rush for the elevator. Reaching
his suite, Wilde explained that it
would take a few moments to pre
pare the drink. Smith and myself
exchanged glances. "These British
ers know how’ to do things,” we
smiled in anticipation.
Presently Wilde called out: “Do
you wish lemon or cream?”
Still as tea goes, it was not bad.

Three Crimson Stars Out of
Action, but Sophs
Show Form.
By Times Special
BLOOMINGTON. Ind., Jan. 10
Brilliant play by two sophomores
gave Indiana a 34 to 21 triumph
over Chicago in a Big Ten cage
tilt here Monday.
The Hoosiers completely out
classed the Maroons despite the ab
sence of three regular pastimers
Jack Heavenridge, lanky Crimson
sophomore guard, carried off in
dividual honors with six field goals
and two free throws.
Hodson and Weir, veteran Hoosier
forwards, were missing from action,
Hodson playing only a few minutes
due to illness. Kehrt, ex-Shelby
ville star, took his place and snagged
four field goals. Bob Porter, flashy
rookie backguard, was kept out of
action by illness.
Constant fumbling and fouling
marked play in the first half, which *
ended with Hoosiers in front, II to
7. The Maroons went ahead, 13 to
11, but Dickey led an Indiana rally
which sent the Crimson to victory.

While this owner-player battle is
brewing in the "big time,” owners
of the International League were
showing a progressive spirit at their
meeting her? today by trying to
map out a show that would lure
more customers through the turn
stiles.
Several plans were considered, but
the one attracting most attention
was that offered by Frank Shaugh
nessy of the Montreal Royals. This
would divide the circuit into two
sections, with Montreal, Toronto.
Buffalo and Rochester in the north,
and Baltimore, Newark, Jersey City
and Albany in the south.
At the end of a shortened sched
ule, the teams finishing first in each
section would play a five-game se
ries.
At the same time the two clubs
finishing second would engage in a
similar series. Winners of both se
ries would then play a seven-game
series for the league pennant.
