missioner. Tills committee, uppolnlod by
thu league presidents, Is expect
ed to muku u report by Febru
ury. It la believed the new agree
ment will bo streamlined, clar
ifying eortnln hazy rules, and
will deny thu new commissioner
some of the wide powers granted
to the Into K. M. Unclls.
Meanwhile, busobull . will bo
governed by the advisory coun
cil comprised of Will Ilarrldge,
president of tho American
league, ford Frlck, Nallonnl
leiigim head, and Lcsllti M.
O'Connor, secretary - treasurer
under Liindis, who will uel us
chalrninn.
Tho council will oporale with
nil tho powers and duties ot tho
commissioner as provided by
the major league agreement of
1U21. They will act on all mat
ters except any case involving a
player's claim against a club or
catjuo. In this event, the league
houds will not have any volo
and O'Connor will make the de
cision. On tho other hand,
O'Connor will not vote on any
other matter until the two
league presidents disagree.
Today's separate National and
American league meetings deal
with tho amendments handed to
them by the minor leagues with
the draft and territorial prob
lems the most important. The
minors want a 33 13 per cent
Increase In the draft price and
the right for any minor league
club to take over the franchise
of any major league team which
Intends to invade said team's ter
ritory. The question of pro
football interfering with the
busebull schedule will also be
discussed as will the number of
night games to bo played.
Uowlng to the wishes of Lan
dls, who asked that no memorial
be planned for him, the two
leagues voted to establish a Lan.
(lis award to be presented to the
most valuable players of each
league. The playors will bo se
lected by the Baseball Writers
Association of America.
f'rlek, whose four-year term
as National league president ex
pired yesterday, was reelected
for four years, with Snm Broa
den, president of the St. Louis
Cardinals, named vice president
for a one-year term. Clark Grif
fith, Washington head, was
elected vice president of the
American league for one year.
It was announced Hint the
104S all-star game will bo played
In Fenway Park, Boston, July
10. As Boston has no lights, it
will be the first all-star day
game since 1041 when the game
was held In IX'trolt.
The only deal that developed
out of n flock of rumors was tho
New York-Chicago trrtdo involv
ing two leflhnnded pitchers. The
Yankees gave up Johnny John

year, to the White Sox for Jake
Wade, who won two and lost
four.

To Be Kept Out
Of Olympic Tilts
NEW YORK, Dec, 12 (VP)
Germany and Japan should not
be invited to compete in the
Olympic games until after a
"cooling olf period," as was done
after World War I.
That decision was voted by
approximately 150 representa
tives of the U. S. A. Sports Fed
eration, successor to the Olympic
games committee, last night at
the first meeting since 1942.
Germany was not invited to
either the 1920 or 1924 games
but wus host to the athletes in
193(1.
Col. Evan Hunter of the Brit
ish army and secretary of the
British Olympic committee, re
newed his plea that the first
games after the present war be
held in London. Avery Brund
agc of Chicago, president of the
USASF, read a five-page letter
from Lord Abnrdare of England,
supporting Hunter's invitation.

Former Texan
Wins Kegling
CHICAGO, Doc. 12 W)
Buddy Bomar, pin-toppling form
er Texan who now operates his
own bowling alleys in Chicago,
was ready today to meet chal
lengers for his newly-won na
tional match game champion-,

He hoped the title he won
Sunday night in the finals of the
fourth annual all-star match
game tournament would stay
with him longer than with its
previous owner, Paul Krumske
if Chicago, but. he was willing
to risk it with the best in the
land. .
Bomar toppled 13,171 pins, an
average of slightly less than 206
per game, in the 64-game finals
of the tournament sponsored by
the Bowling Proprietors' associa
tion of America and the Chicago
Tribune Charities, Inc., to win
the crown and a $2000 cash
prize. Bombar's score under the'
Peterson point system was
304.46.
Krumske, who had lifted the
title from Ned Day of West
Allis, Wis., just 14 days before
in a challenge series, finished
seventh among the 16 finalists of
an original field of 125 entrants
from 54 cities in 20 states all
of them champions of their cities
or leagues.
Bomar beat out Pvt. Joe Wil

Giants Clash
With Packers
For Pro Title
By JIMMY JORDAN
CHICAGO. Dee. 12 (tP
You'd have had a hard time con
vincing anybody four months
ago that it might happen, but
nevertheless those opportunists
who play under the banner of the
New York Giants have a date
next Sunday with the Green Bay
Packers to settle the world pro
fessional football championship.
The .Giants, relegated to the
limbo of the also-rans in the
National Football league in pre
season prognostications, squel
ched the eastern division title
hopes of both Philadelphia and
Washington yesterday by beating
the Redskins; 31-0, in the season
finale to grab the berth in the
playoff game. :
It took them only six minutes
to seuie ine issue. A weeK pre
vious, on their own gridiron,
they edged out a 16-13 victory
over Washington.
- Meanwhile. Philadelnhia. still
with a chance at the crown, was
beating Cleveland 26-13. That
victory was somewhat hollow,
however. The Eagles would have
taken the eastern division if
New York had lost to Washing
ton, but the Giants could not be
denied.

Mills made most of his total on
lay-ins on the break.
. Semsky; All-Star center,
sparked a losing cause, working
like a demon under the basket,
besides hitting the hooD for 12
points.
Coach Israel stated after the
game that he is confident the
University of Oregon is in for
a surprise Friday night at Eu
