PAGE TWO THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON MONDAY, JANUARY 16. 1950 Pro Grid Status Still Uncertain Despite Truce By Stan Opotownsky . (United FreM SporU WrlUr) New York, Jan. 16 tPi Some rip-roaring conference room bat tles may wilt professional foot ball's olive branch before the National-American league finally is established this week. The new circuit," made up of some former members of the all America football conference and all members of the national foot ball league, will be organized at Philadelphia ' beginning Thurs day. Certain AAC 'entries are the Cleveland Browns and San Fran cisco Forty-Niners and Baltimore Colts from the old AAC and the New York Giants, New York Bulldogs, Chicago Bears, Chica go Cardinals, Los Angeles Rams, Green Bay Packers, Washington Redskins, Pittsburgh Steelers, Philadelphia Eagles and'Detroit Lions.' '. ' ' Others to Apply . Buffalo, N.- Y., a former AAC team killed by the original merg er plan but revived by insistent Buffalo fans, and Houston, Tex,, backed by millionaire Glenn Mc Carthy, also will apply for mem bership. ? . ' .': Buffalo has an excellent chance but Houston's hopes faded when Rice university said it would not permit a pro team use of its new 70,000-capacity stadium, 1 The biggest- headache facing i the-new league is assigning play- j rs from the defunct America conference teams. All New York Yankee players went to the Bull dogs, except six (as yet unidenti fied) who go to the giants. Other wise, it's A muddle. Some club owners want a new draft of those players .on the loose. Others want these players to return to the National league team which drafted them when they graduated from college. , riowever, the prospect of new franchises clouds even those pos sibilities. If Buffalo is admitted, presumably the old bill roster will remain Intact except that star '. passer George Ratterman said he was Joining the. Bulldogs whether or ; not the grid- war ended. ' , ' , i "J Houston ProMoih ';.! ) I Then, ' it .iHditfton-'i admitted, where will it get its players? One guess is from the Los Angeles Don and Chicago Hornet rosters. The new league will be divided into two divisions, the National and the American, .each operating pretty much as a separate Cir cuit.' ". "V :V . ,': There is no division yet, but It was learned the Cleveland Browns want to be In the American di vision with the Chicago Cards, Pittsburgh, the New York Giants, Philadelphia ' and Washington. Another team must be added if Buffalo gets in to make a 14 team circuit. That would leave the Bulldogs, Forty-Nlnors, Dons, Bears. Colts. Lions and Packers in the other division.

Jon. 16 HI'' Anyone looking for n line on the Chicago Cubs needn't bother ask ing Manager Frankie Frisch. "I don't know myself," the per plexed pilot admitted today. No ma jor league manager is as eager for the start of the spring training season as Frisch, who claims to be "in the dark" about his team's prospects for 1950. "1 don't know the first thing about a lot of the fellows we'll have in camp," Frisch said. "They tell me we're going to have two great prospects In Carl sawatsio and Boh Borkowski, who are corn ing up from Nashville, hut I have to go by what 1 hear because never saw either of 'em play ball." The quickest way to irritate Frisch is to ask him where he thinks his Cubs will finish In '50. We know hoeauso we asked him. "Me make a prediction?" snort ed the Fordham flash. "Not on your life! Maybe I'll be able to get a line on the club In spring train ing but right now I don't know anything about the fellows who are cominR up with us." There was one Item, however, that Krisch was optimistic about. That was the Cubs' ageci -rath- j behemoths who pack the stnrii or, the lack of It. ! urns. They nrc honest about help- 'We II have'a verv younn club." beamed Frisch with obvious rel ish. l.t fl HI II.DIXi 111 KNS . Portland. Jan.

Sport Parade By Oscar Fraley (UnlUii Prwa Sports Writer) New York, Jan. 16 UP)--Sports Journalism received its greatest boost today from a couple of knocks thanks to the solid south and the shy larceny which was neither late nor latent In the NCAA. The nation's sportswrlters were put on the pan by one Ralph W. Algler of Michigan and Clarence Houston of Tufts, as they fought for the expulsion of seven schools from tl'e NCAA for providing too much aid to athletes. : In pvhorttn'; evnnls'on '; In grandiose prof- Alilr assorted that 'rprcording 'to.-tre 'Wwgpsn pers, the c-e Rfi'ir subsidies Is net rnnular." Houston charg ed that "tu'p attitude of the press has not been one of enthusiasm but has been almost derisive." Press Derisive The rascally sportsw r 1 1 e r s hinted, it swms, that the "sinful seven" Virginia, VMI, VPI. Maryland, Boston College, Villan ova and the CitKlel would not bo expelled. Thev also quoted various officials that the seven were In difficulty because they honestlv admitted their faults and too many other non-confessors wore doing the same thing. "Fortunately," Algler intoned In what turned out to be an un fortunate remark, "the decision rests with a highly respected group." So the "highly selected group" Immediately voted not to expel the seven. That was a victory for the south. And thoy turned It Into a complete rout by having the sanity code limiting aid to athletes .suspended for a year. As long as Algler was digging a hole, he didn't stop with a little one. He admitted himself that "only the naive would claim there Is no subsidization and we are not trusting enough to think there aren't some violations." Integrity at Stake Could It he that he was ques tioning the -integrity of all. those other college presidents and nth letio directors who claimed to be as pure as the driven snow? Then he backtracked, maybe unconsciously, and indignantly nsi-M-ted that "the writers rhnrgo hyproclsy but when questioned won't divulge the source of their information." I can personally tell Algler that after his expulsion forces were routed like Jeh Stuart's boy seat tot"v some other Yankees, one southern official snt In his hotel room and warned his victorious cohorts: "Punt sit hack and beam. Start making pl.uts.for next year. Let's make sure that our friends are at the next annual meting in Dallas to vote for us. In Pallas we'll be among friends and we should have no trouble getting the votes to win again." Anil I won't tell Algler who said it but it's true. The southern bloc doesn't agree with the sanltv code uermitting 1 tuition and one meal. It wants to ! f'vo room and hoard and tnayho : J.'W or SI0 a mont'i to the bruised !

If there Is complete honesty Hogan, Snead Set For Golf Playoff Match Tuesday Pebble Beach, Calif., Jan. 16 IB Sammy,. Snead and Ben Hogan, the two major "color guys" of golfdom, head today for Los An geles and their play-off for one of the richest pots o'gold in links history. They will meet Wednesday for $4,500 plus the gate receipts. The winner will get $2,600, the loser $1,900, and they also get 50 per cent of the gate receipts. If the weather is good, a crowd of 10,000 Is expected. Snead finished the annual Blng Crosby $10,000 na tional pro-amateur tournament, yesterday in a four way time for first place and collected $1,237.50 for his efforts. Hogan Bags 72 Hogan, making his second try since his near fatal auto accident of a year, ago, finished out of the money but still playing good golf, he had a 72 yesterday com pared with Snead's final 73. Deadlocked with the West Vir ginia hill-billy for first place money, were Dave Douglas, Wil mington, Del., little Jackie Burke, White Plains, N. Y., and Smiley Quick, Los Angeles. Along with Slamming Sammy, they each compiled 214 totals, three strikes better than the rest of the close ly bunched field. It was putting miseries that cost Snead the undisputed title. Me nad complained of having trouble on the greens on his first round here, despite the fact he shot a 69. But as play continued he got worse. In yesterday's round, he three putted two greens and missed an eight footer on the 17th and again on the 18th either one of which would have given him the crown that he had won three times pre viously. . , Douglas had the best round of the day on Pebble beach, with a two under par 70. Quick had a 73 and Burke an even par 72. A record-breaking crowd of 15,. 000 roamed the fairways in near perfect weather. '; Ad Liska Named!

Two Platoon System Due For Action Plnehurst, N.C., Jan. 16 (IP) Approval of football's two-platoon system was the principal Issue as the National Collegiate Ath letic association rules committee opened its meeting here today. The Football Coaches associa tion .rules committee has recom mended that two-platoon football be okayed for at least one more season, and that even more sub stitutes be allowed in order to help the smaller colleges. The NCAA group will act on that rec ommendation during its three or four day session. William J. Bingham of Har vard, chairman of the committee. said the group will conduct closed meetings and probably will make no announcement on Its decisions until Wednesday. The coaches suggested that the rules be changed to allow one player to enter the game between each play. Under the present rules, an unlimited number of substitutions may be made during time-outs "and when the ball changes hands, but at no other time. Helps Small Schools This proposed change is design ed to help the smaller schools with limited manpower. If the rule is adonted. a star player could be pulled out of the game ior a rear, yei sent uacri in aa soon as he is needed. Other proposed chanpes under consideration here would: 1. Conduct the coin toss 15 minutes before the start of the game to allow coaches to an nounce their starting lineups (of fensive or defensive) before the klckoff. 2. Change the position of the officials so they can get a better look at offsides. 3. Forbid an offensive blocker from striking an opponent on the head, neck or face with locked hands.
