catches, compared to Wilkins"
520 yards in 1948 on the same
number of receptions.
Wilkinson also scored 10 times

known conference mark. His
60 points placed him in a tie
for second spot in the league
scoring department.
Sophomore Bill Sheffold of
Oregon State tied the conference

Hogan's Fate Boosts
Snead to Golfing Peak
By OSCAR FARLEY

New York U.R Slammtn'
Sammy .Snead, .the .hot-shot
hill-billy from the Virginia
mountains, was the golfer of the
year in 1949 thanks to the
fates which struck low Ben Ho-
ran Just as the mighty mite of
the fairways apparently had
reached his peak.
The bantam Benjay was rid
ing high holder of both the
National Open and the P.G.A.
championships when he was:
critically injured in an auto
mobile accident last February
while en route to his Fort
Worth, Tex., home after the
Phoenix Open.
There still Is a question,
almost a year later, whether
the little mechanical man ever
will play again. Certainly
he never will be able at the
age of 38, to recapture his
deadly tournament touch
after being gone from the
grind so long.
But Snead, the balding, 35-year-old
stylist, took up much
of the slack in the mad scramble
for Hogan's throne And he had
all he could do to beat out red
hot Cary Middlecoff, who crash
ed through to win the National
Open.
Snead 'Wins $30,893.83
Snead wound up on top, how
ever, as the year's leading money
winner ($30,893.83) and golfer
of the year. He took the laurels
by capturing the P.G.A. match

Locke Wins British Open
The much - sought British

After winning the British
crown, Locke canceled a com

"so that the British could see
their champion for a while."

Drop Kick Grid Great
Succumbs to Heart III
New York, Dec. 29 VP)
Charlie Brickley of Harvard, one
of the greatest drop kickers In
American football history, died
from a heart attack last night at
the age of 58.
He was twice an all-America
halfback in 1913 and 1914
and in his three years for the
Crimson set records that have
never been surpassed. 1
In the 1913 Yale game, at the
height of the Crimson's football
heyday, he kicked five field goals
for Harvard's only scoring and a
15-5 victory.
Two of his records still
stand. His 13 field goals in
1913 were the most ever
ever kicked by a varsity play-,
er in a single season. He also
held the over-all record of 34
goals out of 37 attempts for his
three varsity years starting In
1911.
After graduating' from Har
vard he entered the brokerage
business and in late years was
an advertising salesman in New
York.
His death was discovered last
night when a friend at the
George Washington hotel heard
groans coming from Bnckley's
room-and called the house doc
tor. They entered with a pass
key and lound the former grid
star lying on the floor. He was
pronounced dead by Dr. Alan
Moody, ambulance surgeon from
Bellevue hospital.
His son, Charles E. Brickley.
Jr., said his father had been ill
for a year but would not give
up work.
"He just wouldn't rest, he
wouldn't give up ... he was a
champ right to the end," the
younger Brickley said.
Father and son had appeared

Thos. Kay Woolen Mills

in mid-Manhattan court yester
day to have charges of disorder
ly conduct against them dismissed.
Their arrests grew out of a
football argument that turned
into a fight at Reuben's restau
rant, 6 E. 58th street on Dec. 14.
The trouble started when a
patron pointed out the elder
Brickley to a friend, who ex
claimed, "You mean that old
bald-headed man is the great
Charlie Brickley?"
Brickley took exception to
the remark, and before it was
over it took 10 policemen to
subdue father and son. Brick
ley laughed it off, saying "fame
is fleetin' ... it happens all
the time." The restaurant own
er, an old friend, refused to
press the charges.
Giants and Yanks
Agree to Swap
Training Sites
New York, Dec. 29 U.R) The
New York Giants and the New
York Yankees agreed today to
swap spring training sites in
1951 so that baseball fans in
the far west will have a chance
to see the Yankees in action. .
The clubs announced yester
day that the Giants will work
out at the Yankees' base in St.
Petersburg in the spring of 1951
while the Bombers take over the
base in Phoenix, Ariz. From
there the Yanks will be able to
travel to the west coast for ex
hibition ffamee flt Ran frani-iGpn
Joe DiMaggio's home town; Oak-

of Del Webb, co-owner, of the
Yankees, who lives in Phoenix.
