BY NORMAN Z. BROWN

Winter baseball moved in hectic
fashion during the month Of Deeem-
Der with the major league meetings,
numerous trades. and q proposed re.
vision TO the stsid baseball rules, all
figuring in the headlines.
Glen W~rightwas ira ded by Pitts
burgh TO the Brooklyn Robins for
Harry Riconds and Jess Petty.
George Uhle. star Cleveland pitcher
since 1919, went 20 the Detroit Tig-
ers in exchange for Shortstop Tav-
ener and Pitcher Kenneth Holloway.
Although Uhle had not gone we'll for
two eason il was hard for Cleve-
land to partw it'll him, but the ac-
QUESTION Of Tavener plugged n yawn-
ing esp in their inner dcferte.
Vic Aldridge vas sold to Newark
by the New York Giants.
IL took an outlay of five players
for the Senators TO bring Buddy Ny.
er back from the Boston Red Sex,
when only a little more than e year
ago they were glad 10 get rid of him.
To bring Buddy back 10 the fold the
Senators gave Pitchers Horsce Lis
enbee and Milton CASTOR, I~nfielders
Grant ellis and Bob Reeves, and an
outfielder, Elliott Bigelow, whom
they had acquired from the Southern
league.
At the annual meeHinE Of the Ma
tionsl league John A. Heydler was
reelected league president for a
term OF four years. Shortly after
his reelection Heydler created a
sensation by proposing o drastic
change in the rules, suggesting that
another player be added to the now
nine-man seams. Briefly, this extra
player wolld act as batter for the
pitcher. relieving the %moundsmsn
from hitting and base running re-
disapproval by the American league
heads.
In football the superiority Of the
west coast elsvens owe eastern and
mid-weStern teams was again being
demonstrated. Two big intersection
al clashes were staged Dec. II. when
Pop Warner took his Stanford team
10 New York to drub the Army ESQ,
while EotrG Dame was taking 9 27-1t
licking from Southern California in
their annual tussle at Pasadena.
The fight game, just recovering
from a series Of upsets the month
before, saw IN ven greater surprise
in December when Knute Hansen,
Danish fighter. was knocked out in
Cleveland by X. o. Christner. Ham
sen had been bsllyhooed as the sue
cessor to Gene Tunney. Legal battles
had been fought 10 determine who
was Hansen's manager and when Bill
" Gibson was finally awarded his
contract he breathed u sigh OF re-
lief. He anticipated earning q for
tune with the big Dane. Taking him
TO Cleveland for a bout with Christ
ner, an unknown, was meant 10 be
just q varmup for Hansen. But the
tables were turned. Christner plant
ed a right on Hansen's jaw in the
seventh round that put the Dane 10
sleep for Is minutes. That was the
end for Knute. He probably never
will be able to regain his lost pres
tizs.
