accepted money to "fix"- a game.
Earlier Monday, Spivey had
been accused of taking bribes to
fix three games, including a
game against St. Louis in the
Sugar Bowl tournament at New
Orleans, Dec. 29, 1950.
It was not on the charge of

Four-Man Trade
Slated by Browns
Cleveland, Ohio (U.R) The
Cleveland Browns have announc
ed a three-for-one trade with the
Green Bay Packers, sending vet
eran tackle Chubby Grigg and
two rookies to the northerners
in return for linebacker Walt
Michaels.

Michaels, dubbed the
"Big Train" at Washington &
Lee, should fill the Browns' de
fensive vacuum caused by the
anticipated retirement of Tony
Ariamle to study medicine. He
was traded by Cleveland to the
Packers before the season began
last year.

Fail To Repeat
Milwaukee U.R The oft-
told tale of the failure of Amer
ican Bowling Congress cham
pions to stay within the favored
circle held true after two of last
year's titlists flunked out trying
to retain their crowns.
Lee Jouglard of Detroit, who
set the all-time singles record of
775 at St. Paul in 1951, rolled
a meager 637 Monday.
When it came to the other
events he was even in worse
form. In the team event he rolled
577 then took a mere 521 in the
doubles.
One of Jouglard's teammates,
Tony Lindeman, another De
troiter on the Stroh Squad, came
out of the all-events competition
with a 1,735, a drop of almost
300 points below the 2,005 that
won him the nine-game crown
last year.
the 1951 season for the Medford
Rogues of the Far West Baseball
league.

A full slate of games was

action.
About 4,500 fans were on hand
to see Vancouver open its home
season by downing the Yakima
Bears, 8-1. Yakima scored its
lone run in the first inning on
Bill Andring's triple and Charles
Malmberg's single.
But the Capilanos roared back
in their half of the inning to tie
the score on a walk and a triple
by Len Tran, who was obtained
only a few hours before from
Seattle of the Pacific Coast
league.
The Caps picked up two more
runs in the second and never
were in serious trouble.
Charles Malmberg was the
