Feller Rated Cinch To
Enter 200-Game Class
By OSCAR FRALET
(United Pres. Sport Writer)
New York, Feb. 6 U.R Bob
Feller of the Cleveland Indians
won "only" 15 games last season
and took a $20,000 pay cut,
which leaves him making a mere
45,000 in 1950, but even with
his fast one limping a little, he
(till appears a cinch to enter the
ranks of the 200-game winners
this year.
Feller has a total of 192 vic
tories, leaving him eight short
of becoming the 54th major
league pitcher to hit the 200
mark. Figuring on the price of
per game pitching, he should get
those eight easily. Last season
his wins cost the Indians $4,300
each. If he scored only eight
triumphs this season it would
figure at $5,600 per victory . . .
neither the dollar, nor Feller,
has deteriorated that much . . .
One of the most popular pi
lots in the major leagues is Ed
die Sawyer of the Phillies, and
his strongest boosters are the
men in his own farm system,
They all back Jack Sanford, To
ronto manager, when he says
that the smartest move the par
ent club made was to bring up
Sawyer to handle the young
players. Eddie got a lot out of
the youngsters, as his third place
finish last season proved, and he
New Ski Star Is
Found in World
Champion Jumps
Lake Placid, N. Y., Feb. VP)
The sport of ski jumping,
which enjoys a limited popular
Ity among competitors, had a
brand new star today.
He is Hans Bjornstad, a 21
year-old Norwegian youngster
who was mentioned only as an
afterthought by the experts in
forecasting the result of the
world championship here yes
terday.
If you'd ask about him,
they'd just say: "lie is a good
Jumper."
But Bjornstad outshown
them all yesterday, achieving
both the best form and the
best distance. It's an exceed
ingly rare combination for one
skier to excell in both.
He jumped 224 and 223 feet
In his two trials on the Inter
vales Olympic hill and showed
such perfect form that the judges
gave him 1814 points each,
very fine score.
Bjornstad's total on form and
distance of 220.4 points gave
him a six-point margin over an
other rank outsider, Thure Lind-
gren of Sweden. The week be
fore Bjornstad had placed only
sixth and Lindgren 31st.
One of the National Basket
ball asociation's officials this
year is Morrie Arnovlch, ex-Na
tional League baseball slugger.
Dick DunkelS College Basketball Power Index
EXPLANATION The Power Index provides a direct comparison of Ihe "dative strength
of any two teams for this season to date. Thus, a 50.0 team has been 10 scorinr points
stron: r than a 40.0 team on their comparative records, in hich' scoring margin has
been "weighed against strength of opposition. Vhis does not necessarily mean that a 50.0
team should defeat a 40.0 team by exactly 10 points in the uture. Teams rarely follow
past performance that closely. Furthermore, the ratings are not adjusted for such fac
tors as home court, Injuries and ineligibilities. The Dunkel system correlates records of
all college teams and was started in 1929.

His case parallels that of Ed
die Dyer of the Cardinals. Dy
er handled most of the Cardi
nal stars in the minors and so
was able to make them major
league winners. Sawyer, too,
handled many of the current
Phillies' kids in the bushes .
and they really like him , .
The roller derby now is knock
ing them dead under the stars at
the plush new Miami stadium.
But the word from the Florida
sports front is that, while there
are plenty of visitors, the folks
aren't spending freely but are
shopping around for their sports
entertainment . . .
Rube McCray. William and
Mary football coach, plans to add
the double wing and the "flea-
flicker" series made famous at
SMU to his single wing grid rep
ertoire next season. W. & M.
was fourth in the nation last
fall in forward passing and led
the colleges with 23 touchdown
completions. While passer Bud
dy Lex graduated, Rube still has
one of the finest catching ends
in the nation in Vito Ragazzo

to toss that ball around . .

Nationals Announce New
Record Night Schedules
By FRED DOWN
(United Press Bports Writer)
New York. Feb. 6 (U.R) Led
by the St. Louis Cardinals, who
have scheduled a record 54
games at night including even
their opening game, the national
league today announced an un
precedented total of 205 after
dark contests out of 616 on the
overall schedule for the 1050
season.
In the official schedule re
leased by the league, it was re
vealed that the total even ex
ceeded the American league fi-
eure of 204, also a record, in
spite of the fact that one National
league club, Chicago, doesn't
play night ball at all.
Owner Fred Saigh of the Card
inals has virtually wiped out
weekday afternoon baseball in
his town with only three such
games scheduled, all apparently
at the insistance of visiting club
owners who refused to go for
night games on these days when
their teams leave for another
city.
The breakdown of 77 Card
inal home games reveals in ad
dition to the 54 night games, one
holiday double-header, 11 single
Sunday games and one Sabbath
double bill, Just five out of 12
Saturday afternoon dates (the
other seven being at night), and
those three lonesome little week
day games.
Those novelty occasions in St.
Louis will be on April 20 with
Pittsburg, on May 3 with Brook
lyn and then not again until Aug
28 also with Brooklyn.
All but two other National
league clubs are keeping pace
with the after-dark trend. The
Braves will play 37 night games.
the Phillies 25, the Reds 24, and
the Dodgers, 21. The Giants are
holding the line against the "in
flation" sticking to 14 or Just
two games with each visiting
club while the Cubs, of course,
have none at all.
The Washington Senators,
with 43. and the St. Louis
Browns, with 38, head the Amer
ican league's night-ball partisans.
The Nationals will waste no
time throwing the switch with
the Cardinals opener against
Pittsburgh on April 18.
The remainder of the opening
day card has Boston at New
York, Brooklyn at Philadelphia
and Chicago at Cincinnatti.
Each team has 12 Sunday and
Saturday dates but the number
of scheduled double headers
varies from the Heels' ii to
Brooklyn's one. The lone Dodger
double date is on Memorial day
and President Branch Rickey's
policy is to play a morning-after
noon double header and charge
two admissions,
The Braves and Reds like the
Cardinals also will experiment
with the Saturday-night-game
fad. Boston has scheduled five
such affairs and Cincinnatti, two.
Vikings Return
To Big Six Play
With Corvallis
The Vikings of Salem high re
turn to Big Six league competi
tion Tuesday night at Corvallis
for their only basketball outing
of the week.
Coach Harold Hauk's squad
undefeated in league play, top
pled the Spartans earlier in the
season in a game played in Sa
lem on January 17.
The Viks go into the Tuesday
night game with a record rt six
victories m loop play.

New York, Feb. 6 (& The!
list of "traditional rivals" Bert
Bell is using to set up the 1950
National American football
league schedule is: Cleveland vs.
San Francisco, Green Bay vs.
Washington, Philadelphia vs.
Los Angeles, Bears vs. Cardinals,
Bulldogs vs. Giants and Pitts
burgh vs. Detroit. . . . Apparently
it doesn't take long to create a
tradition in that league. Or, as
Bill Veeck says, they're "those
towns where you can draw some
people."
While we're on the subject,
there should be a heck of a
"traditional" rivalry on the
Pacific coast next fall between
Coaches Kip Taylor of Oregon
State and Forrest Evashevski
of Washington State. . .
They worked up quite a riv
alry as assistants to Biggie
Munn.
The Impossible Takes Longer
Mike Bowerman, Michigan
State's 13-foot pole vaulter, has
a habit of pausing at the head
of the runway and fiddling
around a while before heading
for the takeoff. ... At practice
recently a spectator asked Mike
how come he took so much time.
. . . "Just trying to work up
enough nerve," replied Bower
man. "At first it always looks
impossible."
Sportsmentlon
Don Lofgran, the San Fran
cisco basketball star, fouled out
of a game for the first time in
his career against Southern Cal.
the other night and high-scoring
Chet Giermak of William and
Mary was charged with only 19
personal fouls in 17 games. . .
They're just roughnecks com
pared to Bill Quackenbush of
the Boston Bruins, who played
131 consecutive hockey games
without a penalty. . Don Meade, j
who still hopes to be reinstated!
in Mexico and thus gain a clean
slate in the U. S., is galloping
horses every morning at Hia
leah. . . Time for Villanova's
Paul Arizin to move over: Don
Paulsen, who has scored more
points than any other Iowa
State basketballer, never played
in high school either. And Don
once was dropped from the
freshman squad.

The Dodgers thought they
had the inside track on Paul

Mnother Do-it-Youme(f
American!
New frontiers of opportunity are
still wide open in America... for
folks with ideas, ambition, and
drive. And there are plenty of
people on every Main Street who
are making this "Do-It-Yourself
Spirit" pay off! They don't go for
spoon-fed security. They'd rather
make their own, on their own.
Take the example of Frances
Buss, who hails from St. Louis,
Missouri ...
Hehind the television emmerm
she found a futi-time eareer
ft director-producer at 32!
Watch her work behind the television
cameras, and you'd never know that
Frances Buss had been the studio's recep
tionist a few years ago!
But Fran planned it that way. In 1941
she decided to stake her future on learning
the television business, growing with it.
She got a foot in the door as a reception
ist, then volunteered to tackle any job, on
stage or off.
From signpainting to Bcript-writing . . .
it all pointed toward Fran's goal. She even
learned camera technics on the side. Five
years ago she won her chance to run her
own show. It clicked! And today she's the
only woman director-producer on CBS
TV! "There are plenty of new frontiers for
women today," says Fran, "but you have
to set your goal, and stick at it, on your
own!" And that's how to make the best
security for the future, too.
You'll find most folks in America today
have Fran's "Do-It-Yourself Spirit." One
proof is that 80 million Americans 4 out
of 5 families voluntarily take care of
their own futures through life insurance.
And because life insurance is used by so
many, the life insurance business has nat
urally grown in size.
Yet life insurance serves at an intimate,
personal level. Trained agents bring their
help to families on every Main Street. To
do this, there are 150,000 trained agents,
representing 584 individual, competing
companies helping American families help
themselves.
L(fe Insurance in an open hook...
It's a fact that women and chil
dren have the greatest stako in
life insurance . . , because)
Women themselves hold aboufc
20 of all life insurance in force.
Currently women buy about IS
of the new life insurance issued in
the U. S.
The basia purpose of life insur
ance has always been the protec
tion of the family, with benefits.
upon the death of the breadwinner,
going to widows and motherB, sons
and daughters.
If you have not talked over your
family's insurance plans recently,
do it tonight! Life insurance is a
family affair. To make sure you're
getting the most out of your pres
ent life insurance, see your agent.
