BOTH TEAMS STDOO AT RISIO ATTENTION WHILE THE CHIEF PASSED* ------SPORT L IG H T --------------------------------------------- Chicago Fans See Gloomy 1951 By GRANTLAND RICE--------------------------- T his unhappy baseball city (Chicago), once the home of F ra n k Chance, the peerless leader, and his famous Cubs, is again tu rn ing to "n e x t y e a r” w ith o u t too m any golden dreams. Both the Cubs and White Sox have known th e ir fam e—but not lately. F rank F risch has done a ll anyone could expect him to w ith w hat he has and it's s till m a te ria l shortage fo r the White Sox that cuts them down. One question asked around here is this— “ What w ill B ranch Rickey do fo r the P i rates?” In the firs t place he can’ t do them any h a r m , since they are as low as a team can get. R ickey is ce rta in to be a big help by 1952 i f not in 1951. He s till has m ore Grantland Rice a c t u a l baseball brains than anyone connected w ith the game, when you look back over his experience. But not even a R ickey can do every thing at once. I t m ight be rem embered also th a t w ar clouds and the d ra ft can make a te rrific difference in the two 1951 races. A lready a num ber of shining young stars have traded baseball uniform s fo r khaki—the bat fo r a gun. This w ill soon begin to double and redouble. It w ill w ork hard er on younger team s than old e r teams. Looking over the two leagues how can any one expect any of the sec ond division teams to break into the upper four? Yankees, Tigers, Indians and Red Sox w ill s till be the class in the A m erican league next spring. P hillies, Dodgers, Giants and Braves w ill re m a in in the firs t division of the N ational as fa r as anyone can te ll, except th a t the Giants have a good chance to w in the flag. They had the best team in th e ir league down the stretch. The loss of Branch R ickey is n 't going to help B rooklyn although Fresco Thompson is a capable fie ld hand. B u t years are needed to get any baseball savvy—and this means years of actual w ork as the head party. B rooklyn fans want a glamorous, gang of fighters lik e they were in the old days, but they also w ant to w in flags. • • • Notre Dame and Next Year Chicago is a hot N otre Dame city. This affection goes back to the e a rly years of Knute Rockne. A bad Notre Dame year is a bad football year fo r m any Chicago football fans. Now they are wondering about Notre Dame and 1951. F o r one thing Bob W illia m s w ill be m issing and Bob W il liam s. the star fro m B a ltim o re , was the te a m ’s m ain star in 1949 and 1950. H is passing was about 70 o r 80 per cent of Notre Dame's a ttack w ith the back- field m a te ria l le ft. Sitkos and such don't come along every week. There are strong rum ors around that N otre Dame is getting ready to shed p a rt of her football glory. Scholarships have been reduced quite heavily, we are told. One point is that N otre Dame is re a lly a m a g n ifice n t u n ive rsity. M any of her leaders th in k the edu cational and c u ltu ra l side has been overshadowed by football great ness. This, at least, is the idea you hear. F ro m now on N otre Dame w ill have good football teams, but they won’t be so over whelm ing. N otre Dame loses good men after this season and so fa r apparently no H arts, Connors or L u ja cks are on the freshm an squad. It is lucky th a t N otre Dame s till has F ra n k Leahy and his able coaching staff. Leahy did all anyone could do w ith lim ite d m a te ria l as fu ll proof that a ll too often it is s till the m a te ria l th a t w rites most of the winning story. N otre Dame has an even tougher schedule next year. As we under stand it the South Bend platoon takes on S.M.U. and other strong southwestern teams, where foot ball m ay have its deepest strength. Indiana w ill be better. So w ill M ichigan State. So w ill Purdue and Iowa. I t is much too e a rly to s ta rt w ritin g N otre Dam e out fo r 1951. B ut it w ill be a big jo b to go through next season's hard m arch w ithout a few defeats. • • • The Pittsburgh M ystery P ittsburgh turns out to be one of the deeper m ysteries of base b a ll—and this m yste ry w ill last through 1951. Three years ago a new crop of owners a rriv e d and started scattering coin in every known direction. H aving no fa rm system ready to d e live r young stars, the P irates paid high prices fo r anything they could get. B ut around September 12 of 1948 the P irates suddenly turned in the d irection of bottom The odd p a rt is that P ittsburgh fans d id n 't desert them . The P irates drew well over a m illio n fans in 1949' and 1950 in spite of th e ir low ly state. Each ye a r they started slow ly and then got worse. But the gate rem ained above m any other teams th a t were in the race from s ta rt to finish.

And the p o litic a l cycle a q u a rte r of a century ago has some interesting comparisons w ith that today. In fact, it's alm ost s im ila r. A q u a rte r of a century ago, in the election of 1926. C a lvin Coolidge, supposedly supreme in the White House, almost lost co in tro l of con gress. He retained the senate by e xactly the same m a jo rity as H a rry T rum an today—one vote. The house he kept by a m a rg in of 42. Today T ru m a n ’ s m a rg in there is 34. Some interesting figures popped up in that surprise election of 1926. A young man from M a ryla n d named M illa rd Tydings, son of a Susque hanna riv e r boatman and hitherto unknown, was elected to the senate. A q u a rte r of a century la te r, T yd ings, in another surprise election, bowed out. The man who defeated him . John M a rshall B utler, was equally unknown. A nother interesting fig u re swept into the senate in th a t 1926 surprise election was a re la tiv e newcomer fro m K entucky named Alben B a rk ley. He defeated Republican Sen. R ichard P. E rnst, chairm an of the privileges and elections com m ittee and considered a sure bet to win.

Another upstart Dem ocrat who surprised the senate In 1926 was Robert Wagner of New Y ork, a G erm an-born boy who rose to sponsor our most im portant social legislation. Wag ner defeated a pow erful Repub lican leader. Sen. James Wads w orth, chairm an of the m ilita ry a ffa irs com m ittee, who had the courage to come back to con gress in a reduced rank, as a m em ber of the house, and this year re tire s fro m politics.

Duck Population According to current reports fro m Ducks U n lim ite d , the duck population fo r 1950 is about the same as last year The goose pop ulation, however, is said to be at a high level and s till showing an upward trend Favorable conditions throughout September and Octo ber brought the abnorm ally lute hatch through safely. Thus fears o f heavy losses proved prem ature. A notable reduction in pintails was reported, but other species had suc cessful seasons. There was a steady m ig ra tio n of ducks and geese from the north and a pile-up of birds in the south ern parts of the provinces where the w eather was m ild and sm all waters were not frozen. W hile there was a steady non- spectacular m ig ra tio n south across the border and some birds from the north going rig h t through, there was s till a heavy population of ducks and geese in the country. Fields were m ostly bare and where snow had fallen It had melted again, so ducks chiefly m a lla rd s and p intails, were finding rich liv ing at the expense of farm ers whose late harvest had been de layed by re cu rrin g snow and rain —p a rtic u la rly in southern Alberta. No serious botulism outbreaks were reported In any part of the west. In cip ie nt outbreaks at White- w ater Lake and the N etley-Libau Marshes in Manitoba were ap parently checked by s u b n o rm a l tem peratures in August and Sep tem ber. Ducks U n lim ite d (Canada) have completed 23 new duck factories to the end of October. Eleven m ore are under construction.
