Balancing Schedules College Sports' Big Task One of the toughest assignments now at hand in college sport is the arrangement of schedules that will prevent at least part of the slaughter which took place last fall, especially when Navy trainees w-ere thrown against young civilians. Many schedules already have been completed, but many others still are in the making. It is Frank Leahy’s belief there will be no outstanding college teams this season, outside of West Point and Annapolis. "They lose good men,” the Notre Dame coach says, "but they have many good men back, with other good men coming in. When they meet it will be for the national championship. "Notre Dame loses practically every member of its squad. Most of the others will be just as hard hit. This means there will be better-matched teams all along the line. There w’ill be other 17 year-old kids coming along, as there w'ere this last fall—many who were real stars. I agree with you that it’s a mistake to overmatch these kids, especially those who are not so good.” The 17-year-old Tulsa sensation, 147-pound Ford, would have starred on any team. His 76-yard run against Georgia Tech came from a combination of perfect faking, speed, poise and running smartness. College Football Due Pros' Full Respect We have a squawk fo offer against those college players who take up pro football and then get busy telling every one that it is the cleaner, harder, more interesting game in which the player can have much more fun. I can see no sense nor sportsmanship in using pro football to knock the college g*me. Any football player with the right spirit should still be for his college and the game that gave him a chance to turn pro. Profes sional baseball can get along without college baseball, although you’d be surprised to know how many big league stars are ex-college men. But pro football coudn’t possibly survive without the help of col lege play. Practically every name on every professional roster came from a former college line-up. These men had been well-coached, well trained and ably-developed in most cases before they ever turned pro. If anything happened to college football there would either be no pro league or it strictly would be third class. Professionals Seen Talking for Pay Checks Most of those who tell the world how much better in every way the pro game is are merely trying to curry favor with the pav-check. Pro football has the greater playing strength. It should have this quality. It is a fine game and an improving game. But for all that you don't see any 80,000 or 90,000 crowds watching the top professional shows. Smart pros should be the biggest boosters college football has. In regard to football for 1944, I am in full agreement with Lou Little about needed rule changes. The sooner wrong things are made right, the better off the game will be. Three Changes Urged in College Game College football could stand for three essential rule changes be fore next season rolls around: 1. An out-of-bounds kick-off should give the opponents the ball on the 50-yard line. 2. Permit forward passing at any point back of the scrimmage line. 3. Permit any one recovering a fumble to run with the ball. There is no sense in taking any arbitrary stand that the rules must be set as they are for the duration. If these changes would help football—and most of the coaches, most of the players and most of the spectators think they would—they should be made as quickly as possible.

Speaker Fears Major Baseball Wont Operate This Year Former Great Player | Doesn't Think Clubs Can Muster Talent By LARRY SMITH, Associated Press Sports Writer, CLEVELAND, Jan. 20. — Tils Speaker, one of the original electees to baseball's hall of fame at Coopers town, N. Y., is doubtful about the major leagues' ability to operate this year. Now a member of a local draft board, the famed Gray Eagle says he: "would like to sefe baseball go on,’ and if it can overcome the manpower j handicaps, more power to it. But I'll have to be shown.” Hasn’t Lost His Enthusiasm. Speaker doesn’t want any one to deduce from his statement that he’s lost his enthusiasm for the game. He still goes to the ball park as often as the press of hts steel business per mits. He’s also a fight fan, a foot-; ball fan and a hockey fan. But he'sj pessimistic about the coming season. "They played last year with a lot of 3-As and a few 4-Fs,” he explains. “This year there won’t be any 3-As. The boys either will be 1-A or they'll be given 2-A or 2-B deferments be cause of jobs contributing to the war effort. If they leave those jobs to play ball they'll be 1-A so quick it'll make 'em dizzy.” Lauds Present-Dav Players. The man who piloted the Cleve land Indians to its only world cham pionship in 1920 isn’t one of those oldtimers who believe present-day ball players are inferior to those of his generation. "Sometimes I think big money comes too easily nowadays, and so lessens incentive, but don't let any body tell you all the great ball players are dead." Tris still gets requests for auto graphs and loves it. "The fellow who says he doesn't either is lying or missing something. At the World Series last fall a bunch of kids mobbed me for my autograph and it made me feel good for a week." Barons Take 20th Game Cleveland is the first team in ttie American Hockey League to hang up 20 victories. The Barons did the trick last night by shading the Pittsburgh Hornets, 4-3.

NEW YORK, Jan. 20.—Boxing be gan to count noses today after one of its biggest stocktaking jobs and the score card showed praise for the nose-mashing industry as the “place where democracy works best" and a warning that it's time to get “poli tics out of the fight game." These bouquets and belts in the eye were tossed around last night by a collection of such experts as former Mayor Jimmy Walker, Na tional Boxing AssociaUon President Abe Greene and Ring Magazine Publisher Nat Fleischer. The toss ing was done at the annual award dinner of the Boxing Writers' Asso ciation of New York, at which the Edward J. Neil Memorial Plaque was presented to the 4,100 boxers in the armed forces in appreciation of what they’ve done for the sport of smash ing snouts. Greene and Fleischer both plead ed to have control of the sport free from politics. Fleischer also received an award from the writers for long service to the sport. Both he and Greene suggested that one way to iron matters would be to have regular boxing writers— “men with practical experience”— named to every boxing commission in the country.

When Gordon came home again he had to start from scratch and explain things. He believes that the majors will fold in 1944 because too much man power will have been drained by the armed services. Joe, who has twc children—Judy, 3'2 years, and Jo seph Michael, 1|2—reasoned that he probably wouldn't survive the fathei draft. Hence his remark about hanging up his uniform. Individualist on Training. Joe also has his own ideas about conditioning. He contends he can get into better shape in Western ^ Oregon's mild climate than at the i Yankee's wartime camp in New , Jersey. If, by chance, he were back In 1944, he planned to skip training , camp—with the consent of Manager Joe McCarthy, who says Joe always keeps in prime condition anyway. That accounted for Gordon’s say ing he wouldn't be around fot spring training. At the time the rumor factory began production, he say he hac nothing more on his mind. But recently the Yankee ace announced his intention of enlisting in some branch of service, and now he think? he never may play with the Yanks again. He may be too old when 1 the war ends.

COLLEGE STATION, Tex., Jan. 20.—Aggieland has said good-by to Reveille—a dog that won her way into the hearts of thousands to become a symbol of fighting spirit. The little black and white mascot of Texas A. and M., termed “more than an animal; she is a tradition,” died of old age in the veterinary hospital. The Aggie Band played “The Spirit of-Aggieland” and “Silver Taps” when they buried Rev in the center of Kyle Field, where the dog loved to cavort during ] half-time drills at football games. Reveille’s collar will be placed in a case and a plaque will be affixed to the entrance of the stadium. _ Not long ago, when the cadets were raising money to have Reveille designated a general, they also contributed funds to have her portrait done in oil. It hangs where every cadet may see. Reveille was picked up one night in 1931 by some Aggies on a road south of the campus. A leg hurt was dressed and she was taken to a dormitory. She im mediately was adopted by the Cadet Corps as its mascot. She made trips with the corps; she frolicked in and out the for mations, and when the band put on a show she wore an Aggie blanket. Said President F. G. Bolton: •To many a homesick fresh man Reveille represented the dog he left at home; that dumb friend that always could be depended upon for a wag of the tail and a friendly bark, no matter how dark the clouds or how negligent were other friends. Reveille was a tangible, visible connecting link with a carefree boyhood." Ace Ringmen Carded In Three Big Shows By the Associated Press. NEW HAVEN.
