Ere RLEa TT SATURDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1948 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE . PAGE FIFTEEN Spicy Bits From Other Sports Cols. Toronto, Oct, 9--(CP)-=The Na- tional Fockey League--the long- dreamed.-of big-'ime to junior hoc- key players--is under fire of a couple of Ontario sports writers over its relations withh young pros- pects and retired players. Chick (Stratford Beacon-Herald) Appel lashed out at the N.H.L. for.[ its treatment of junior players tied up under the controversial "Form Cc." Chick uses this interpretation of the form: "Form C allows, the professional club with which an amateur player is signed to send him to any team of their choosing. It the player does not choose to re- port to the amateur club involved, he has the option of signing a pro- fessional contract for any one .of the professional club's farm teams. Filing that, the professional club has the right to suspend the player." Form C, says Chick, "clearly in- dicates the tentacles a professional hockey club clamps on the unsus- pecting rookie player. It's strictly a one-sided contract, all in favor of the pro club and on the same basis as the horse and rabbit stew --one horse and one rabbit to the t." iis solution is for the Ontario Hockey Association to "approach the NHL, and try to obtain relief for the rookie who signs the form when trying out with a pro club. If nbihing can be done that way then it's "to the courts with a test case." Cradle to Grave . Bill (Owen Sound Sun-Times) Dane was hot under the collar re- cently when he found N.HL, Presi- dent Clarence Campbell comment- ing on the expected application of Dave (Sweeney) Schriner, former big-league star, for reinstatement to amateur ranks. It was too much for Bill when Campbell said: "It is my personal opinion that former professional players who starred in the biz leagues should not return to hoc- key ofice their pro days are over, as they would be unable to show their former greatness, even in amateur ranks, and thus give a false impression of their true ability." Says Bill " . . (Campbell) ap- parently would like to see some sort of 'cradle to grave' system put into operation to keep professionals under the thumb of the big busi- ness moguls who run the moneyed setup." "To anyone who firmly believes " that this is a democratic country in * which all have equal rights, Camp- bell"s remarks represent a threat frem within as far as hockey is concerned." i Sports Roundup By HUGH FULLERTON, JR. Cleveland, Oct. 9--(AP)--A couple of nights ago Mel Ott picked the Braves to win the World Series on _the strength of their relief pitch- ing .'. . Mel had a right smart idea there, but he failed to allow for the fact that Billy Southworth's Boston boys can't score enough runs to make their reliefers useful . . . So far, in three games, Southworth has called on Red Barrett twice in re- lief roles and Nelson Potter and Bill Voiselle: once each. Potter al- lowed one unearned run and the others none at all in a total of 9 1/3 innings. The catch was that the games were lost when they went in . . Maybe things will even up with Steve Gromek pitching against Johnny Sain today but there's some doubt . .. The Braves aren't in a hitting slump, Southworth in- sists, but they're in a heck of a runs-batted-in slump. Hair-Raising Position . Eddie Waitkus of Chicago Cubs showed up on the field before one . World Series game and an ac- quaintance promptly asked him how he liked playing the outfield for the Cubs . .. Eddie pointed at his somewhat shaggy noggin and replied: "I didn't get a haircut. for two weeks so I'd have some pro- tectfon in the outfield. I'm really doing a dodger out there." Lake Front Lisps One slightly cynical observer, reaching Cleveland on the Press Special three hours late and having 2 heck of a time making his way to the registration desk in his hotel, observed: "There are more specs in the hotel lobby here than there were spectators at Braves Field . . . Tommy Holmes turned down a bid to play post-season ex- hibition - with Brooklyn's celebrated semi-pro club, the Bushwicks . . . Report here says that Bill Klem definitely is through as supervisor of National League umpires. A matter of money... "Hec" Phillips Varsity Coach Passes at Home Toronto, Oct. 9 -- (CP) -- "Hee" Phillips, former Canadian Olympic runner and coach of the University "1 of Toranto track and field team for more than 15 years, died Thursday night. He had been ill for more than a year, but continued as coach for Varsity's runners, leading track and field teams to four intercoi- legiate titles last fall.

Hurt were star centres Buddy O'Connor and Edgar La- prade, and defencemen Frankie Bddolls and Bill Moe. O'Connor has possible broken ribs, Eddolls lacer- ations to one knee, Laprade a brok- en nose and Moe a bad head cut. X-rays will determine how serious the matter is for Ranger hopes in the early part of the N.HL. race. O'Connor was runner-up to Mont- real's Elmer Lach for league scor- ing honors last season. ¢ + + The daily hunt for players of N.HL. calibre continued Friday, with Boston Bruins signing Ed Krysankowski, University of To- ronto defence star, to a professional contract. Coach Dit Clapper of the Bruins * + Pd is looking to five second-year men to give that team a big lift. They are Pete Babando, Eddie Sandford, Ed Harrison, Johnny Pierson and Paul Ronty. All but Harrison came up to the big show last year by, way of the Hershey Bears in the Am- erican Hockey League. If these five men deliver, the Bruins believe they will be around the No. 1 position in the league race. FOOTBALL RESULTS U.S. PRO FOOTBALL All-A ri Conf: Los Angeles 49; Chicago Rockets 28.

Bad Crack-up Mars Six-Day Bike Race Buffalo, Oct. 6--(AP)--One of | the worst series of crack-ups in the history of Buffalo International six-day bike races Friday night slashed the fleld to seven teams. Six riders retired or were carried from the track. The mishaps, which followed each other in rapid suc- cession during a wild jam, left the leadersh¥p with Charlie Bergna of Paterson, NJ, and Bill Anderson of Cleveland. The first to go was Tom Saetta of Brooklyn, who cracked up with his partner, Erwin Peden of Chi- cago, as they were attempting a pick-up at the height of the jam. He suffered an injured shoulder. Peden, carried from the track on a stretcher, returned shortly alone, but almost immediately tangled with Hugo Koblet of Switzerland. Jules Audy of Chicago, trying to avoid the spill, swerved, fell and catapulted over the rail into the spectators. Koblet suffered a broken arm; Audy a broken wrist. Angelo Di Bacco cracked up alone coming out of a turn. He was car- ried from the arena with a back injury. Torchy Peden of Canada retired. The Victoria rider's partner, Rene Cyr of Montreal, | teamed with Cesare Moretti, Di Bacco's partner. Walt Diggelman, Koblet's partner, teamed with Henri Surbatis of Greece, Audy's old partner. Sport Shorts From Britain By ALAN HARVEY Canadian Press Staff Writer London, Oct, 9--(CP)--Ice hockey --you have to say "ice" or the na- tives think you mean field hockey --is really taking root in Britain, For years, the game has been popular here with Canadians as puck chasers. Now Jolin Bull is get- ting more ambitious. He's going to take up the game himself. J. F, (Bunny) Aherne, secretary of the British Ice Hockey Associa- tion, reports that plans are crys- tallizing for a county hockey league Qualifications: hockey talent, birth in the British Isles and tree years' county residence, Planned to open in November v..th about seven teams, the new circuit is expected to become a source of home-trained talent. All players will be amateurs. Profits will go to pay expenses. Counties so far enrolled are Mid- dlesex, Sussex, Surrey, Notts, Lon. don, Oxfordshire and Cambridge- shire, Warwidkshire may also enter. So take note, Canada," Maybe Britain (which won the 1936 Olym- pic hockey title with a part-Cana- dian outfit) will win another title some day all on her own. Who Gets the Last Laugh? As a two- and three-year-old, a horse named Mickey the Clown won races for owner J. Stone. Renamed Mickey the Lark last year, he hasn't won a race since. Now Stone has changed the animal's name again --this time to Mickey the Giggle-- and hopes his luck will change. Tesi Twins: . Cricket-playing twin sisters, 24.year-old June and Betty Birch, pack their bags next month and sail for the Antipodes with the Laglish women's team visiting Aus- tralia and New Zealand, Betty is a school teacher, Her only worry is raising £200 ($800) ex- penses, but she says she has given up to help the cause. "If I had been a man, cricket would have peen my life," she says. In the women's "Ashes" to date, England has won three matches and lost one, with two drawn. Around the Circuit: Greyhound owner Fred Trevillion, who recent- ly toured the United States with Giis 1947 champion Trev's Perfec- tion, has decided to reduce his ken- rel strength of more than 200 grey- hounds by 80 per cent.

And at Lafayette, Ind, Michigan, the Big Nine's unbeaten champion of 1947, puts its imposing victory string on the line against a Purdue team that stood up and swapped blows with Notre Dame before bow- ing 28-27. Penn State, top team in the east last year, won its second straight of the campaign and Alabama, once the titan of Dixie, broke into the winning column Friday night. Penn States spurted late to smash Syracuse, 34-14. Alabama, beaten by Tulane and tied 'by Vanderbilt, .| socked Duffuesne, 48-6. ~ In other feature night games, Boston University edged Colgate 14-3; Detroit smothered San Fran- cisco 40-7; Richmond beat Furman, 7-0, and Villanova rallied to down Miami 19-10 in the Orange Bowl before 42,827, largest crowd ever to see a reguld season game in Florida. was just a llmbering-up exercise, but there was plenty of evidence that there would be some big scores rolled up during the season. That ace of Taxi Auto Glass Specialists mathematics; Jack Judge, seems to carry his figures with him by adding a the high score for the evening of 741. The master of "swing," Boyd Val- leau, will bear some watching, as his crescendo drives have every appearance of putting him in the top bracket. Apparently the men are going to be taught a few thirgs about bowling by one of the falr sex, Ann Henderson, who turned in a score of 628. Following are the team captains: Nightmares, "Chick" Hewett; Perkies, Merv Perkin; Gold Bricks, Gould- burn; Gudufuls, Bill Blight. : Members would do well to remember that these games must start at 9 o'clock. | MOTOR CITY CAB PROMPT EFFICIENT SERVICE DUPLATE SOCIAL AND SPORTS This week finds the girls down in bowling but not in spirit.

Honky Tonk FITTINGS SPORTS AND SOCIAL CLUB After looking at last Wednesday night's scores it is apparent that most of the bowlers were "on the ball" and the scores this week were by far bet- ter than last. Of course there were a few who made the lemon league but the majority of players proved them- selves worthy to called members of the Fittings Sports and Soclal Club Bowling League. 'There were a few really nice scores chalked up, namely Betty Griffin tak- ing the ladies' high. triple and high single for this week with 728 (278) and Doug Keeler having three very nice games totalling 864 (357), taking the high triple and high single for the night. Doug's score will be something to beat and should give the bowlers some incentive. "Wee" Willie Robinson who bowled down at the Mushroom Hall last Wed- nesday night commented that he was somewhat afraid of hitting his head on the ceiling and this seemed to be the opinion of some of the others who are over the six-feet mark.
