OPTIMISTIC is the word for o.
~ car Witt, manager Of the Cleve-
land Indians, who went on record
recently as one of the first big
league shippers to predict, with res
ervations, the collapse of the New
York Yankees in 1910. 9
Wits representations are built
around Bill Dickey, Yank catcher.
As Dickey goes, according to Witt,

pions. Without him, the Yanks
would founder. With all due respect
to Joe DiMaggiO, the Indian man.

indispensable man ON the team.
Therefore, an injury to Dickey will
spell curtains for the champs.
The teams that might do the job?
Witt picks his Indians as one of the
teams, and selected the Boston Red
Sox as the other possibility.
The only fly in the ointment is the
fact that Dickey probably will be
functioning as perfectly as ever
next year.

Bear this in mind always. Perfect

proach to the foul line.
A four or FIVE step approach is
recommended because IL represents
an approach in which the body, with
the aid Of correct timing, throws the
ball rather than the arm alone as
in . three step delivery. The four
or FIVE step delivery can be de-
scribed as a fast walk, a slow run or
a glide to the foul line. These de-
liveries result in a straight slide on
the last step, with the ball leaving
the hand simultaneously. OF the
two, the four step is recommended
for beginners.
Approach the foul line in a straight
line, avoiding zig-zag pathway.
In your approach, keep the knees
slightly bent and the body relaxed
at all times. Do not allow your
back swing to get too high as it
tends to throw you off balance. Try
to make your steps and ball swing
deliberate. thus bringing the bowl
ing hand and the left foot to the
foul line at the same time in a free.

Tie games do not count in the
standings.
The jumbled conference race is
symbolized by this strange outcome:
Illinois and Minnesota were the two
teams which whipped the Wolver-
ines and kept Michigan from an
unbeaten year. Ohio State then pro-
ceeded to defeat both Illinois and
the Gophers, but lost in the clos
ing game to Michigan. Northwest
ern's tie with Iowa allowed the
Buckeyes to claim the Big Ten title.
Season Of Upsets
Altogether, It was . season Of up
sets and surprises. One Of the out
standing developments was the phe-
nomenal rise Of Iowa under Coach
Eddie Anderson, who IL serving his
first year with Iowa. In each of
their seven major games the Hawk
eyes had to be figured a. the short
enders. They were the underdogs
because Of manpower shortage.
Another surprise was the collapse
Of Michigan's wonder team" Both
Illinois and Minnesota took charge
of affairs and whipped the Wolver.
ines without great deal Of trouble.
Northwestern failed to live up to
its preseason rating. Coach Lynn
Waldorf wasn't too enthusiastic
about the great amount Of publicity
given his potential An-America can
didates, remarking that We're not
as good on grass as we are on news
print"
Other events which upset early
fall predictions were the consistent
disappointments Of Wisconsin and
Purdue, the relatively poor show
ing made by Minnesota for the
first time in six years, and the Uni
versity Of Chicago's dismal record
against conference competition.
Spotlight Turns
The upset games in which heav-
lily favored teams lost, included: H.
linois 16, Michigan z: Iowa 7, Notre
Dame, 6; Iowa Is, Minnesota 9:
Iowa 4, Purdue o; Michigan 81, Ohio
State IA; Purdue 8. Northwestern 0.
Failure Of the Big Ten teams to
maintain their usual pace turned
the spotlight in other directions. Cor
nell did much to re-establish the
East's claim to gridiron greatness.
Tennessee's great record, though
made against mediocre talent
brought cheers from the nation S
football addicts. Another great team
was Texas A. g. M. Authorities
were loud in their praise Of South
ern California, unquestionably one
Of the greatest Of grid machines.
Though Big Ten teams lost in the
war against outsiders, interest in
conference struggles was greater
than ever. Nothing could be taken
for granted. The race was close
enough to thrill every downtown
quarterback, and the final result
was In doubt until the last whistle
had blown.

Special Session
Is Unnecessary,
|OCOnOr Declares
Arrangements Now Being
Made With Social Security
Heads To Save Extra Tax

Governor O'Conor declared this
week that it would be unnecessary
to call a special session of the
General Assembly in order to save
Maryland employers payment of
an extra $1,OOO,OOO in Social Sc
curity taxes during the coming
year.
1t had been estimated that the
extra sum would have to be paid
because of discrepancy between
the State and Federal Social Sc
curity acts, and numerous groups
had urged the Governor to SUM-
mon the Legislature to amend the
State law. If no such action
were taken until the next regular
session, State Social Security off
Gals estimated. superfluous taxes
amounting to between 100000
and $1,250,000 would be collected
from employers in 1910. The
Federal statute was amended after
the Maryland Legislature adj
journed last April.
1t is the Governors belief, he
said, that this sum can be saved
without calling the special session.
Arrangements have been tenta-
lively completed, he announced,
with officials in Washington, in
line with arrangements effected
by several other states, by which
the due date of the tax on salar-
les over $4,000 per year will be
postponed until April, 1941. The
arrangement would be made with
the understanding that the State
act would be amended at the next
regular session of the Legislature
in 1871.
Congress amended the Federal
law last summer to tax only the
first $4,000 of each individual
salary. The Maryland law, not
amended since it was passed by
the General Assembly in 1886,
levies a tax on entire payrolls,
regardless of the amount of indi-
vidual salaries.
Immediately upon discovering
this situation" said Governor
O'Conor, 81 took steps to see that
every effort was exerted to pre-
vent the payment of unnecessary
taxes by Maryland employers. The
Maryland Unemployment Compen-
sentation Board has had numerous
conferences with Social Security
officials, and 1 have taken part in
discussions with the various Off
Gals.
While approval of the State Law
Department was required by the
Social Security Board in Washing
ton as a necessary condition, this
approval has been given by Deputy
Attorney General Henderson in his
ruling that the Maryland Board has
the right to issue regulations as to
when and how the tax is to be col
lected.
ut will, of course, be most graft
flying, the Governor declared, eff
this suggested plan, after being APP
proved by the Social Security
Board, can be put into practice.
thereby obviating the necessity of
the special session of the General
Assembly which would be quite ex-
pensive. 1 am determined that
every precaution be taken to see
that the fund is maintained as Sc
cure as possible, and at the same
time that the Maryland tax payers
are saved the burden of unneces-
