Frick Tells Nat Umps to
Ignore New Strike Rule
By LEO H. PETERSEN
(United Press Sport. Editor)
Bradenton, Fla., March 3 UB
President Ford Frick of the
National league revealed today
that he had instructed his um
pires to disregard the new strike
zone.
'I have told them to call the
balls and strikes this coming
season the same as they did last
year," he said. "The National
league is not going to be a party
in establishing a new twilight
zone for umpires.
"The game has done pretty
well with the strike zone as it
used to be so we are not
changing it, no matter what
the rule book says."
The new rule describes the
strike zone as that area between
the batter's arm pits and his
knees. That narrowed it down

Dick DasBil4el' College Basketball Power Index
EXPLANATION Tht Power Index provides a direct comparison of the -elative strength
of any two teams for this season to date. Thus, a 50.0 team has been 10 scoring points
stron r than a 40.0 team on their comparative records, in vhlch scoring margin has
been weighed agalnut strength of opposition, 'tills 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 Dunk el system correlates records of
all college teams and was started In 1929.
. When Ohio State's basketball
team wound up its season by
licking Michigan, 69-58, last
Monday, the Bucks still topped
the nation's 775 quintets with a
Power Index of 78.9.
Un compiling their 19-3 record,
they had met opponents with av
erage rating of 69.8, and, against
that opposition, had set an aver
age scoring margin of plus 9.1.
ihose two factors add to 78.9.
IZ However, there still was a
chance that this rating could be
topped by others not only in
remaining scheduled games, but
also in tne post-season tourna
ments. As Big Nine champions,
the Buckeyes were in as the
!bistrict 4 representatives in the
WCAA play-offs.
"No. 2 Holy Cross (77.2) and
;W2. 3 Bradley (76.0) had the
Ibest chances to catch the Scar
let and Gray. The Crusaders, al
ready named to the NCAA tour
ney, had won 24 straight, and
:till must play New York AC
(57.9) tonight, Columbia (64.5)
tomorrow, and Yale (66.3) next
Wednesday.
I Bradley finishes its regular
eason tomorrow with Drake
1(59.3), and then enters the NIT.
- No. 4 La Salle (75.8) had an
1 18-3 record, was awaiting a
tournament bid, and still had to
Iplay Boston College (62.2) and
-Muhlenberg (57.2).
- No. 5 Kansas State (75.6) was
'tied with Nebraska for the Big
, Seven lead, and still has to play
Missouri (68.6) tonight and
; Kansas (73.6) next Tuesday.
No. 6 Indiana (74.3) had com
pleted its season, while No. 7
Kentucky (74.1) is the favorite,
as usual, in the current SEC
tourney.
'. No. 8 Duquesne (74.0) had a
' 22-1 record and had already ac
cepted an NIT bid.
No. 9 UCLA (73.8) and No.
10 Kansas (73.6) completed the
Top ten at that time.

His Students Know
Their Stuff
for the beneiit of the hitters
about three and a half inches
less than it used to be. Under
the old regulation the strike
zone was the area between the
top of the batter's shoulders and
his knees.
"That old rule, which has
been in the books ever since
the (fame has been played, es
tablished a set area for strikes
as far as umpires were con
cerned," Frick explained as he
watched the Boston Braves
work out "As a result, there
came into being a sort of a
twilight zone with the top of
the shoulder the boundary
line.
"Nothing above that ever
was caled a "strike" he ex
plained. "But now, the rules ask
the umpires to change their per
spective and establish a new
strike zone.
"Well, we are not going to do
it. Our strikes and balls this
season will be the same as they
always have been."
Frick said the new strike
zone rule also was open to cri
ticism because of "unfortunate
wording" in the description of
a batter's crouch.
Under the new regulation,
adopted in the revised playing
code, the stipulation is that a
batter's "normal crouch" must
be considered when the strike
zone area is considered. In
other words, a batter could
come crouched to the plate so
low that a pitcher would have
very limited space in which
to throw a strike.
"We would see the biggest
crop of crouching batters in
history if we followed that
rule," the league prexy declar
ed. "No one ever would be able

Angry Cuban Heavyweight
Vows to Retire Wolcott
By OSCAR FARLEY
(United Press Sports Editor)
New York, March 3 CU.R)
Angry Omelio Agramonte, Cu
ban heavyweight with dreams of
a world title shot, vowed today
to "retire old Jersey Joe Wal-
cott and do his family a favor"
because his veteran rival talked
too much.
Aramonte, who tackles Wal-
cott at Madison Square Garden
on Friday night, was all steam
ed up as he finished training be
cause his aged opponent claimed
that he had kayoed the Cuban
in a 1946 exhibition with pillow
like 16-ounce gloves. '
"She's never happened," Ag
ramonte growled in his bat
tered English. "That Wal
cott he's put me down but I
am up again and finish the
box. At the finish he is having
so much as he can handles."
Shaking a right fist the size
of a full-fledged triphammer, a
paw which has powdered 19 of
his 33 pro opponents into dream
land, Omelio added that this time
it would-be waleott on the re
ceiving end.
"He should be leaving the
box to younger and better
men. Waleott says he is 36.
At the 36 he is, the legs can't
be what she used to was."
Agramonte added that .there
was "nothing personal" in Ms
remarks "except how I feel
about heem." . .

With that firmly understood,
Omelio started to smile again
and reminisced of his youth in
Camaguey, Cuba, where he final
ly had to make a decision wheth
er he wanted to be a boxer or a
baseball player.
"I was the good baseball play
er," he insisted. Omelio he could
play the centerfield fine and
good hit, too. Only, I figure out,
I hit better in the box."
At 25, the five-foot, 11-inch
slugger has been moving rapidly
upward, losing only five bouts in
his 33 as a pro.
