With Gamblers
By Call Lumlqulst
(United Preu Siaff Correspondent).
New York, Jan. 30 lPi A sweep
ing nationwide investigation ol
big time collegiate basketball ap-
Deared certain toaay iouuwuis
revelation that five Brooklyn Col
Wo nlavers had admitted con
spiring with gamblers to throw
a eame aeainst Akron University
at Boston tomorrow night for
$3 000
It was the first specific rcvola-
tion that any players actually naa
been involved in dealings with
gamblers, although there have
been persistent rumors for some
time that bookmakers had been
making "killings" on major col
legiate games, here and in other
large cities.
Held By Attorney
The players held for question
ing by Assistant District Attorney
Edward A. Heffernan of Kings
county (Brooklyn) were Bernard
Barnett, Bob Leder, the team cap
tain and its leading scorer; Larry
Pearlstein, Jerry Green, and Stan
ley Simon. Heffernan said they
would be used as material wit
nesses against the alleged gam
blers, Harvey Stemmer and Hen
ry Rosen, whom he said would
be arraigned on charges of bri
bery and conspiracy.
Barnett and Pearlstein, the first
players to be apprehended, admit
ted, Heffernan said, that they re
ceived a series of mysterious tele
phone calls by persons who said
they could "make some quick
dough" by throwing basketball
games. They admitted getting in
touch eventually with Rosen and
after a brief discussion on Jan. 22,
each of the five players involved
was given a $100 bill. The next
day, Barnett said, one of them re
ceived. $500, which he divided
equally among himself and the
others.
Some On Books
That amount was advanced on
account with the remaining $2,000
to be delivered after the game,
they said. -
Heffernan said the players told
him that they had agreed not only
to drop the game, but that they
would do It with a "given number
of points." Thus bookmakers nol
in on the deal would be subjected
to heavy losses u plans went
through as contemplated.
Heffernan emphasized that Ak
ron's players were "absolutely In
the clear and In no way Involved."
The players also admitted they
had made preliminary plans.. for
Brooklyn College to throw its
game against St. Francis College,
one of the weaker metropolitan
teams, in a scheduled game at
Madison Square Garden on
Feb. 10.

Today's Sport Parade
By Jack Cuddy
(United Preu SUft Correspondent)
New York, Jan. 30 UPiAsa S.
Bushnell, executive director of
the central office for eastern In
tercollegiate athletics, declared to
day that the Brooklyn College
basketball scandal will force ath
letic directors of the nation's col
leges to "organize in strength" to
protect their games and players
from gamblers.
Did Bushnell infer that tne Na
tional Athletic association should
hire a staff of investigators or de
tectives to prevent repetitions of
tho Brooklyn incident in which
five players admitted conspiring
with gamblers to "throw" basket
ball games for money?
1 am making no suggestions
as to the exact preventive meas-
u r e s necessary, Bushnell re
plied. "That Is a matter which
probably will be decided by a spe-'
clal N.C.A.A. .committee to be ap
pointed sooty a committee that
will, continue the work of the
three -man investigating commit
tee which made its reports on
gambling at. the recent N.C.A.A.
meeting at Columbus." Bushnell
was a member of the latter com
mittee.
When Informed of the Brooklyn
incident by the United Press,
Bushnell made this statement:
"This deplorable happening
casts an undeserved slur upon the
overwhelming great majority of
players in intercollegiate basket
ballthe thousands of boys who
would not be vulnerable to any
temptations put in their way by
(jamming imcrcsis.
"Collegiate athletic authorities
have naturally been worried about
the menace created by the stead
ily increasing amount of profes
sionally directed betting on col
lege sports, but they have been

Gambling Charge
Held no Surprise
Lawrence, Kan.. Jan. 30. mi
Dr. Forrest. C. Allen, University
of Kansas basketball coach, said
today that the admission by five
Brooklyn College players that
they had conspired to throw a
game, bore out his charges that
"professional gamblers have ap
proached players in Madison
Square Garden games."
"This revelation should come as
no surprise to any intelligent
coach," he said. "They have known
these things were going on all
along. Most of them were afraid
lo say anything about it."
Allen said that only yesterday
he had received from a New York
spoils authority several printed
sheets listing odds on collegiate
games, inviting the recipient to
place bets through given tele
phone numbers.

confident that attempts at tam
pering could not succeed.
These athletic directors must
now organize in strength to pro
tect college games and the under
graduates who play them. They
must find the means of eliminat
ing the gamblers completely from
the picture."
Bushnell said his office has no
jurisdiction over Brooklyn Col
lege, which is a member only of a
metropolitan basketball league.
However, he emphasized that the
long-sought proof of actual col
lusion between gamblers and col
lege athletes would serve, as a
warning to all collegiate orgahiza
tions that "where there has been
so much smoke recently there
may have been some fire."
The N.C.A.A. s special commit
tee, on which Bushnell was a
member, made a lengthy Investi
gation of the gambling situation
before submitting its report to the
annual N.C.A.A. convention at
Columbus, O., Jan. ,13. The com
mittee failed to unearth anv ac
tual cases In which gamblers at

in basketball or other sports.
However, the committees re
port which was adopted by the
N.C.A.A. oxpresscd "regret" at
tne prevalence of gambling on col
lege games and called upon all
members of the organization to
"co-operate in the establishment
of remedial measures." It pro
posed that gamblers be barred
from college games, and that
sources of information for gam
mers- lorm sheets bo "dried ud."
Nine days after this report was

lyn College players entered Into

lusion that was discovered acci
dentally by Brooklyn police. This
development indicated that police

Two Fives Seeking
Role of Underdog
For Tonight's Fray
Two potentially strong Central
Oregon basketball teams, Red
mond s alert Panthers and Bend s
tall Bears, today made a final bid
to be cast in the underdog role
as they stood by for their special
"extra" game, billed 'for the
Bears' home court tonight at 7:30.
The backers of each squad pre
sented data Indicating that the
rival team, Is far the better,
eacn coacn, so it seems, is c9
dent tliat t,he opposing ieaV jff j
Rut fans nrA Tint w Cr7
vinced they will seerf

play only on a hosL....li court or
in an underdog league.
The controversy about the rela
tive underdog merits of the-two
teams started over the week-end
when "dope" originating In Bend
"played up" the Panther squad
as one of the finest to represent
Redmond in many years. On the
Panther team, the Bend dope said,
was Elmer Hoffstetter, lofty pivot
man who has been acclaimed by
Coach John Warren of the Uni
versity of Oregon as one of the
best college prospects In the state.
Flanking Hoffstetter, the dope
continued, were stars capable of
scattering Bear fur over any Ore
gon court.
. . Not Superman
Coach Chick Peden of the Pan
thers read about the reference to
his team as a "superman" squad,
and, at the cost of a long distance
telephone call, took emphatic ex
ceptions. He denied he has a super-team,
and . referred to the
Bend "dope" about Redmond as
an attempt to put the Panthers
on the spot. If Bend should win,
it was pointed out, the Bears can
pat themselves on their collective
backs as victors over a great
team. And if Bend should be beat
en, tne Bears can say: "Well, we i
told you so
Redmond has a
great team and It was no disgrace
to be licked." Also, it was inferred
there might be some intention of
developing in the Panthers a
spirit of over-confidence.
In Bend it was emphatically de
nied there was any intention of
casting the Redmond boys in a
super-man role. Redmond, It was
pointed out, has a fine record:
Nine games won, only two lost.
But, says Coach Peden of the
Panthers, practically all of Red
mond's games have been against
squads that have lacked power of
teams, such as Eugene, that have
bowled over Bend.
And then Bend backers counr
tered with the assertion that'
against Burns the Panthers made
a better showing than did Bend.
In one of the Burns clashes, the
Bears emerged winners by a scant
four-point margin, 35 to 31. Red
mond won from Burns 26 to 17
and 29 to 14. On this basis, Bend
fans say, the Bears should be
given the underdog roles by about
five points!
Then, in a final bid to cinch an
underdog role for his team. Coach
Peden revealed that Hoffstetter
recently suffered a badly twisted
knee, and may not even see any
action against the Bears tonight.
Bend backers, still In the running
for underdog honors, countered
with the announcement that Har
old Smith, star of the Bend team
and veteran of state tournament
play, is nursing a badly sprained
ankle, and will see no action to
night. The two teams will go Into ac
tion at 7:30 o'clock tonight, and
just before game time, with the
underdog argument still under
way, it appeared that the winner
will-be the loser.
Improvement Due
City's RaH Line .
Prineville, Jan. 30 (Special)
Paul B. Kelly, Prineville lumlier
man and head of the railway com
mission for the City of Prineville
railway, has announced the letting
of the contract for rebuilding the
road to the Morrison-Knuclson
company of Seattle, Washington.
The shipping of lumber from
the mills here necessary for the
war effort has been considerably
curtailed for some lime because
of the condition of the road and
the laeK of suitable locomotives,
it Is explained. Both of these con
ditions will be remedied as speedi
ly as the weather and available
materials will permit, Kelly said.
Over 260 public-works projects
have been completed in Colombia
during the past four years and
over 1,200 others are In the proc
ess of completion.

Milk Meeting
(Continued from Page One)
more than two years for just one
milk tank.
Report Made
The inspectors' report, made
I early in January, dwelt upon the
use of ditch water -at eacn
dairy. In scoring the dairies, four
points were charged against each
establishment because of this.
Sanitarian Thompson, however,
reported he had found that the
dairies were using chlorinated
water for rinsing their utensils
and equipment.
"Since we can't get any other
kind of water, I suppose the gov
ernment would like to abolish all
dairies in Central Oregon!" Eby
observed. "Probably we had better
shut down and let the people of
Central Oregon drink pasteurized
dish water," adding that he was
serious about abandoning the
dairy business if government reg
ulations persist in hampering the
Business.
Dr. Ramsey after remarking
that he believed there were "un
safe and not unsanitary" condi
tions in the dairies, said that the
only goal health authorities were
after was "safe milk." He said it
was just a matter of "good house
keeping, and there is room for
improvement yet."
"Pasteurization is the only an-

swer," Dr. Ramsey concluded
Lay, of Medo-Land creamery,
questioned how dairies could
make the elaborate improvements
as suggested by the inspectors,
when "we have only an 8 per cent
margin of profit to work with and
they ask for equipment running
into thousands of dollars." He said
that he was even unable to buy
lumber to make racks, and said
that the cost of pipe and other
equipment which is not "frozen"
is prohibitive. He scored the OPA
for the rigid ceiling rates.
Bradetich, after pointing out
that he had been rated low for
selling raw milk, remarked:
"I'll bet you there are plenty of
boys on the battle fronts of the
south Pacific and in Europe who
were raised on raw milk!"
Problems Presented
He caused a ripple of laughter
when he pointed out that state
officials and college technicians
had assisted him in building "thei
most modern dairy in Oregon,"!
and "now what do they do? They
come along and contradict them
selves. Bradetich particularly as
sailed the manpower problBm,
claiming tha.t he could forsee a
30 per cent reduction in produc
tion if conditions do not change.
He said that the present draft of
youths from the farms would seri
ously cripple the dairy industry.
County Agent Smith said that
"by and large the dairymen are
doing I he best job they can with
the help they have, and with the
priority gags and other handicaps
that are imposed upon them. They
