SAN ANTONIO. Texas (AP) Just
what this year's American league pen
nant race holds for my team la a mys
tery, but I am aure that the Box
will be an entirely different ball club
from the one of last season.
My club la atarllng this year with
numerous new players. 1 know noth
ing of several of them. If they live
tin to advance notices from our
scouts, we'll ha somewhere up among
the first division teams.
My team Is far from being set. Most
of the positions are still wide open. I
have not determined on a certain
player for a certain position and will
not until the fag days of our spring
training. All new playera are going
to get careful consideration and I
firmly believe some of them will land
aa regulara.
Million Muck Agnln
In the outfield I have Harold An
derson from Bt. Paul, and Mel Si
mons, back again from Toledo after
a good year there. Bruce Campbell,
a husky youngster from Little Rock,
haa a reputation of being a powerful
hitter.
My new lnfleldera are John Ryan
from Bt. Paul. Mlnter Hayea from
Washington, Gregory Mulleavy from
Toledo, and Carey Belph drafted from
Houston.
I Intend to do considerable experi
menting with these now playera. X
feel aure some sort of a winning
combination can be found along with
the material held over from last year.
Box pitching thla year will be much
stronger. With Ted Lyons, VIo Fraaer,
Irving Hadley. Alphonse Thomas, Ur
ban Faber, Milton Gaston, Cecil Cara
way, Harold McKaln, along with aev
eral promising recrulta, I consider my
mound ataff one of the best balanced
In the American league.
We may lack a little batting punch
at the present time, however you can
count on the Box having a hustling
ball club with the possibilities to
surprise many people thla season.
My catehlnsc should prove satis
factory with Benny Tata and Prank
Orube coming along great. There
la a chance that Bmead Jolly might
make a good catcher, lie la now hard
at work with the ahln guards and
big mitt. I plan to leave him behind
the bat for alx weeka or more. If
he doesn't develop enough promise aa
a catcher he will be returned to one
of the outfield positions.
Hope fur Holdovers
' As for our holdovers on tho Infield,
t believe boya like Chalmer Clasell,
Lu nine. Joe Sullivan and Luke Ap
pling are in for plenty of baaehall
this year.
Of the recruit pitchers, Ralph
Krlokson from Da I Ins of the Texas
league la a aouthpaw who haa re
vealed promise of being a winner.
We'll be ready to go April 12 when
the pennant race starts, and by ready.

MAJORS FACING RED INK
IN GATE RECEIPTS TAX
Ily ALAN (KM U
Associated Preaa Hports Editor
NEW YORK, April l-(AP) Faced
with 10 per cent taxation on their
tickets and the risks of uncertain
gate receipts, major league bnaeball
clubs will need to play their drawing
cards skillfully this year to keep from
dipping any further Into the red ink.
Only seven of the lfl Amerlonn and
National league organizations show
ed a profit at the close of 11)31. The
lop-sided character of tho two pen
nant racea waa largely responsible
for the slump in gnto receipts but
the national game, like every other
sport, haa felt the pinch of the times.
Player snlnrlea have been reduced
and the player limit cut, to bring
about a eavlng est turn ted at about
7 50.000. but It will tako addltlonnl
measures to prevent further ftnitnclal
embarrassment for the magnates,
John McOraw, blaming the um
pires for too much pacifism, believes
the fans will turn out to ace the ball
playera exhlblt the scrappy spirit
characteristic of McQraw'a own play
ing days.
One of the club owners told me In
Florida; "So long as the fans like
It and will pay to see It, we will not
object to clowning or a rent show of
aggresslvenesa by the players, provid
ing of course they don't let it Inter
fere with giving their best efforts on
the field. 1 believe the fans like
colorful action In any sport; In other
words, a good show aa well aa a good
game. We will try to gtve It to them."
Besides their drawing power aa
world champions, the Cardinals are
well fixed for providing a "good
show" with playera such aa Pepper
Martin and Dizzy Dean. Martin waa
tho big attraction of the grapefruit
circuit this spring and already has
shown flashes of the speed and hit
ting that made him the hero of the
1031 world series. Dctin, ir he gets
away to a good start, will help the
clubs caah In on his ballyhoo.
The Yankees, besides the perennial
ace of all drawing cards Babe Ruth
i have a widely heralded young atar
In Frank Croacttl to attract the folks
In tho Bronx. Across the bridge,
Brooklyn figures Hnck Wilson's come
buck attempt will draw enough at
the gato to offset nt least hla pur
chase price 940,000.
The Boston Braves will allow Art
Shires to do all the broad coating he
desires so long aa he playa a satis
factory first base.

FOES OF STALL
Opponents of 'Strategical
Passivity' Cite Menace to
Game Will Ask Rule to
Overcome Travesties
By Charles Grumlch
KANSAS CITY (9P) That popu
lar American phrase "there ought to
be a law" will be applied to the so
called "stall" when the National
Basketball Rules committee gather at
New York In mid-April.
Opponents of "strategical passiv
ity" are determined to legislate the
stall out of basketball on the ground
that It Is ruining the game from the
spectators' viewpoint.
Locker-room dissertations for and
against the stall abound on the Pa
clflo coast and In the midwest Beth
of these sections and others have
been exposed to examples of the In
activity possible under the present
rules.
Tigers Cite Rule
The Universities of Kansas and
Mlsaourt played a game recently In
which Missouri controlled the ball
12 minutes without attempting to
score. In the far west, two teams
defied each other longer than that
and neither would "knock off the
chip" to precipitate action.
George R. Edwards, Missouri ?oach,
whose team uses "a delayed offense."
cites the coaches' association's own
Interpretation to prove he waa within
the lew when hla cagers held the bajl.
Allen Orders Travesty
The Interpretation, drafted by Ed
wards and seconded on adoption by
Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen of Kansas,
asserts "stalling la the refusal of the
team which la behind In the score
to play aggressive basketball." There
la no penalty except Jeers from the
crowds at times.
The Missouri mentor holds that
since his team led Kansas by two
points the burden of aggresslvenesa
fel! upon the Jayhawker quintet,
which presented a 5-man phalanx
about the Tiger basket and refused
to go after the ball In the Kansas
offensive territory.
During the 12 minutes preceding
the halftlme intermission Kansas
players reclined on the floor and Mis
sourlans Idly toyed with the ball or
passed it among themselves.
Coach Edwards contends the odds
were too great against his team ao
long aa Kansas played only defens
ively. Coach Allen aaya hla playera aat
down, adding travesty to the spec
tacle. In order to test the rule and
show what a ludicrous performance
was possible.
Demands 40 Minutes' Action
C. L Brewer, Missouri athletic di
rector and 6th district chairman of
the rules committee, believes some
thing should be done to assure 40
minutes of activity in every basket
ball game.
Allen says he Is certain the rules
body will take up the stall at Its
next session.
"The members of the National Bas
ketball Coaches' association emphat
ically declared that stalling was a
menace, Allen aaya. "My impression
la that the stall will kill Interest in
ihe game."
