Records To Be Submitted
At A AU Convention Dec 4
NEW YORK, Nov. 30 — liW —
Eighty-four marks, including
five world’s records, set by
United States athletes during
the past year wil lbe sub
mitted to the Amateur Athletic
Union for approval at its annual
convention in Omaha this week.
James M. Roche of New
Haven. chairman of the
National AAU records commit
tee, said applications had been
made for these international
standards:
The 0:46.3 for the 440-yard run
set by Herbert McKinley of the
University of Illinois in the Big
Ten-Pacific Coast dual meet at
Berkeley, Calif., June 28.
Don DeForrest’s 1:00.5 for the
100-yard breast stroke
The 2:16.4 for 200 yards and
2.35 for 200 meters bres*. stroke
set by Joseph Verdeur of La
Salle College, Philadelphia.
The 5:09.6 for 500 meters
backstroke recorded by Harry
Holiday of Michigan.
McKinley was credi with
a 0.46.2 performance for the 440
in the NCAA championships at
Salt Lake City last June but no
application for a record was
asked because there was
a strong wind on the occasion.
Of the American records to be
studied perhaps the outstanding
is the javelin toss of 248 feet,
10 inches made by Stephen Sey
mour of the Los Angeles A. C.
in- the National AAU out
door championships at Lin
coln, Nebr. This is almost 15
feet farther than any American
has flung the spear before.
Harrison Dillard, Baldwin
Wallace’s great hurdler, has
five miscellaneous indoor and
outdoor marks up for considera
tion. Also filed for McKinley are
indoor dirt track records
of 0.30.3 for 300 yards and 0.47.9
for 440 yards.
The biggest assault on
the record books was made by
swimmers. Seven applications
are entered for Verdaur and six
for Holidayl.
One of the top water marks
up for approval is the 0.57.6 for
100 meters free style (long
course) by Wally Ris of Iowa.
There’s another record that
would be presented for an in
ternational standard if the event
hadn’t been dropped from the
world list. That’s Frank Berst’s
41 foot-six inch throw of the 5f
pound weight, which bests all
previous performances. It will
be considered for a new Ameri
can record.
The AAU convention will open
Dec. 4 and continue through
Dec. 7,
Louis To Defend Title
For 24th Time Friday
NEW YORK, Nov. 30—Iff)—Joe
Louis, the busiest heavyweight
champion of them all, puts his
crown on the block tor the 24th
time Friday night when he
meets Jersey Joe Walcott in a
15-rounder in Madison Square
Garden.
Like Mel Ott of baseball’s New
York Giants, Louis sets a re
cord every time he steps into
the ring. The Bronx Bomber has
put his crown up for grabs more
times than all the other former
heavyweight kings together.
Having picked the opposition
virtually clean, this will be
Louis’ first bout since he stop
ped Tami Mauriello in one round
Sept. 18, 1946.
And since Louis seems headed
for retirement after one more
outdoor show this summer, the
fight'faithful are rushing to the
boxoffice in such numbers that
the Garden indoor record gate
of $201,613 seems on its way out.
(Fla.) last night before winning
21-6. But Kansas, co-champions
of the Big Six with Oklahoma,
flattened Arizona 54-28. Ray
Evans, Kansas’ splendid back,
had a hand in six of the Jay
hawks’ touchdowns.
Another outstanding indiv
ual performance was turned in
by chucking Charley Conerly
who completed 13 of 18 passes
for 180 yeards to lead Missis
sippi to a 33-14 victory over Mis
sissippi State that gave Ole Miss
its first undisputed Southeast
ern Conference title.
A third conference champion
ship was sewed up yesterday.
Texas Tech, by upsetting
Hardin-Simmons, 14-6, not only
won the Border Conference pen
nant but placed itself in the Sun
Bowl.
There were five other form
reversals of major and minor
proportions. Holy Cross, playing
its last game for the resigned
coach, Ox Dagrosa, surprised
Boston College 20-6; underdog
North Carolina State played
Maryland to an 0-0 tie; Oregon
State, paced by dashing Dick
Gray, upended Nebraska. 27-6;
and Fordham fought New York
U. to jsl 13-13 tie in the battle
of New York.
Besides Dagrosa, another
coach ended his reign on
a triumphant notre. Bill Kern,
resigned west Virginia Mentor,
saw his Mountaineers wallop
Pittsburgh 17-2 for the first
West Virginia win over a pan
the squad since 1928.
In other important games yes
terday, North Carolina
trampled Virginia 40-7; Rice
buried Baylor in the last half,
34-6; Tennessee made it three in
a row in a late season come
back campaign by downing
Vanderbilt, 12-7; Florida suffer
ed its 26th straight loss, 25-7;
Oklahoma came surging from
behind to conquer Oklahoma A.
& M. 21-13; Michigan State cele
brated its Hawaiian invasion by
rolling over Hawaii, 58—19; and
West Texas State halted New
Mexico, 28-18. _
A crowd of around 18,000 is
expected to watch the great
champion perform against Wal
cott. The fight is slated for 15
rounds but the heaviest part of
the wagering is on how far the
Bomber will let Walcott go.
For an 8 to 1 underdog, the
Camden, N.J., veteran is show
ing plenty of signs of life. This
is Walcott’s biggest money shot
and in the stillness of his Gren
loch, N.J., training camp, the
head of one of boxing’s largest
families— Walcott has six chil
dren—is working and pray
ing for victory.
A triumph for Walcott would
be even more of an upset than
that recorded by Jimmy Brad
dock. boxing’s original “Cinder
ella Man” back in ’35, when he
lifted the title from Maxie
Baer’s brow.
Walcott’s hopes rest on a
“cute” style with which he plans
to puzzle the champion. The Jer
sey comeback man—he will be
34 in January and is a few
months older than Louis—
figures to bob and weave around
the champion. He’s planning to
counter with lefts to the bodv
and overhand rights to the head.
Louis, however, is planning to
get things over with quick. The
■Bomber says “you can’t fool
around with anyone. Sometimes
;even a second-rated lands and
then you’re in trouble.”
Eouis is preparing for trouble
although few observers believe
he will be seriously threatened.
.The champ has trained himself
'finely for the bout and his work
outs show he has his oldtime
power.
The champ will carry a weight
advantage of around 18 pounds—
210 to 192 — and a reach and
eight advantage of two inches.

DIMAGGIO “MOST VALUABLE PLAYER”—Joe DiMaggio,
New York Yankees outfielder and slugger, has been voted by the
Baseball Writers Association of America as the most valuable
player in the American League this year. He won the same honor
in 1939 and 1941. His arm encased in a cast from a recent opera

Winchell Says Dodgers
Have Signed Durocher
Walter Winchell, American Broadcasting company
commentator reported on his broadcast last night that
the Brooklyn Dodgers have signed Leo “Lippy” Duro
cher as manager of the Dodgers for next season.
The Associated Press was unable to locate Branch
Rickey or Durocher for comment last night. One report
said that Rickey and Durocher have not agreed on
terms.
Duroicher was suspended from organized baseball
last year by commissioner A. B. Chandler.
HOLE IN ONE
SMITHFIELD, Nov. 30—W
—the hole in one, that rare
incident in golfing circles for
the top-flight and the duffer
alike, has apparently become
part of Ed Sayer’s routine
exercise on the links.
The Smithfield golfer yes
terday fired the third ace of
his career in golfing. Sayre’s
latest hole-in-one rolled into
the cup on the 196-yard par
three ninth hole at the John
ston County Country Club.
Sayre was playing a match
with his father, C. N. Sayre.
Tabor City Stars
Slate Hallsboro
TABOR CITY, Nov. 30.—Tabor
City’s all-star basketball teams
will open their 1947-48 schedule
on Tuesday night, at 7:30 p. m.,
when they meet the Hallsboro
cage aggregations. Teams from
both towns have been practicing
for several weeks and keen com
petition is expected, since the
rivalry is strong.
Among the leaders in the girls
game will be Betty Wright, Aline
Cox, Nona Shelley, and May
Young, of Tabor City; and Max
ine Lewis, Elizabeth Creech,
Margaret Smith, and Mildred
Gore, of the Hallsboro six.
Outstanding cagesters among
the boys will be the Wright
brothers, Albert, Linwood, and
Bobby; Max and Pod Spivey,
Don Jernigan, and Don Taylor,
all of Tabor City.
While for Hallsboro it will be
Ramon and Leach Creech, Jim
Thompson, Homer Thomas, Dave
Hooks, Royce Ray (playing man
ager) and the Russ brothers,
Herb and Ted.
The Hallsboro female outfit is
in reality the old Whiteville All
Stars aggregation which play
ed last season under the colors of
Tabor City ,along with the TC
quint. So the local gals will be
out to show the visiting team
that the Tabor team of this sea
son is better than the one of
’46-’47.

crowd of 4,000 fans.
Nevada scored in every quar

Referee William G. Fischer,

Tar Heels Will Not

Play Bowl Contest
Southern Conference
Turns To Basketball
RICHMOND, Va., Nov. 30—W
—Most of the 16 members of the
Southern Conference hung out
the “ closed for the winter” sign
today on their football activities
and prepared to usher in the 1947
48 basketball campaign.
William and Mary’s champion
Indians and possibly the Uni
versity of Maryland’s Terps were
a couple of exceptions.
The Indians, who wound up
their regular season with a record
of nine victories and one defeat,
will play in the Dixie Bowl at
Birmingham, Ala., on New Year’s
afternoon. Their opponent had
not been named late today, but
there was considerable specula
tion that the Dixie Bowl commit
tee was ready to invite Louisiana
State.
Maryland’s Terps, who fought
to a scoreless deadlock yesterday
with North Carolina State, looked
forward to receiving a bowl bid,
and the Gator Bowl committee
was reported ready to extend the
invitation to the Terps and Geor
gia. The Terps won seven, bowed
to North Carolina and Duke and
played one tie.
At least one other 16op eleven,
North Carolina’s Tar Heels, who
yesterday finished their regular
campaign by routing Virginia, 40
7, had the opportunity to partici
pate in post-season games, but
the University’s faculty commit
tee turned thumbs down on any
such contests late today. The Tar
Heel spuad had voted to play in
a post-season game yesterday
after it had trampled the Cava
liers. *
William and Mary had its best
season on the gridiron since R.
N. (Rube) McCray succeeded Carl
(Dutch) Voyles, now at Auburn,
as head coach in 1944. In addition
to downing seven of its eight
league opponentes, the Tribe
thrashed Boston University and
State University of Bowling
Green, Ohio.
William and Mary’s only loss
of the season was a 13-7 defeat
by North Carolina, the leagues
No. 2 team.
Meanwhile, George Washing
ton’s basketball Colonials will
raise the curtain on Southern
Conference cage activities Mon
day night when they journey to
the Quantico Marine Base.
North Carolina State’s defend
ing champion Wolfpack began
its year Wednesday night, defeat
ing the 82nd Airborn spuad, 77
43, and last night downed Chat
ham Mills of Elkin, N. C„ 79-83.
State's “Hoosier Hot-Shots” tan
gled with the Hanes Hosiery five
at Winston-Salem, N. C., next
Tuesday night.
Two conference games will be
played Saturday night, William
and Mary invading The Citadel
and Wake Forest traveling to
George Washington.
This week’s basketball card:
Monday night—George Wash
ington at Quantico Marine Base.
Tuesday night—North Carolina
State at Hanes Hosiery.
Wednesday night—McCrary
Eagles at Wake Forest; Catawba
at North Carolina.
Thursday night—Catawba at

Pacific Coast League
Proposal Is Defeated
MIAMI, Fla., Nov. 30 W—
Baseball opened its winter meet
ings today, three days before the
National Association convention
starts with a series of preliminary
sessions designed to clarify the
Pacific Coast League’s gloomy big
league ambitions.
In five short minutes the Am
erican Association tossed cold wa
ter on the Coast’s proposal for a
special major-minor status, turn
ing down its resolution by a un
animous 8-0 vote.
The International League is ex
pected to follow with some more
of the same at its annual session
because president Frank Shaugh
nessy has blasted the idea pub
licity several times.
Clarence Rowland, president of
the Pacific Coast league, called
a special session of his loop today
and then went into a huddle
with George Trautman, president
of the National Association.
The Coast league is asking the
right to be called the Pacific
Coast major league, still remain
ing a part of the major league
organization. However it would
be under the direct jurisdiction
of Commissioner A. B. Chandler
and the Major League Executive
Council.
This special major-minor sta
tus would be created for a five
year period subject to cancella
tion, if and when, full maior
league status should be awarded.
In the meantime, the coast lea
gue asks that the draft price of
its players be increased from $10 -
000 to $25 000 and six years ser
vice required.
No matter what action finallv
is taken at the Miami meetings.
The real showdown will come in
New York where the Majors hold
their winter sessions starting next
week. It is regarded as almost
certain that the majors will not
accept president Clarence Row
land’s proposal.
Another controversial subject
causing much discussion is the
amendment offered bv the South
ern Association, backed by the
Philadelphia Phillies, to elimin
ate the “bonus rule.” This rule,
in effect for only one year, was
designed to discourage huge bonus
payments free agents. However
such payments have continued.
The Jersey City club of the In
ternational League, a New York
Giants’ farm, fcas proposed a re
solution asking for a uniform
ball In all leagues. This was de
feated a year or two back but
now has a good chance of sur
vival.

vote during Thursday’s close<
session.
During that meeting, most o
the important action of the con
vention will be taken, includini
a vote on the coast league’s re
solution.
While the minors were unravel

in hotel suites.
