Four Games Separate
First Division Clubs:
Brooklyn Gains
BY BILL WHITE,
Associated Press Stan Writer.

If things don't get better for the
Cleveland Indians pretty soon, they
may have to include Manager Oscar
Witt in their board d-of strategy
meetings.
After losing four straight-and
giving the Tigers, Yankees and Red
Sox renewed pennant hopes, the
Injuns decided to leave old Ossie
out of the meetings before the cru
cial third game of the series with
Detroit yesterday.
The result-Detroit, 10; Cleveland,
5-was the fifth straight setback for
the jittery league leaders.
So the American League pennant
chase is scrambled badly with only
four games separating the first.

HoItviIIe Seeks
End Upset Win
Over Spartans

Holtville high schools var
iety football team planned a
rude reception for the Ei
Centre Spartans in practice
this week as the Vikings
stiffened defense and elaborated its
defense to attempt to score a second
straight upset win Friday night in
Holtville.
The Vikings, who knocked over
Brawley, 10, in their last appear
ance, will be slight underdogs in
the betting though many observ-
ers were of the opinion Ell Centro's
defeat at Calexico took something
out of the Spartans.
Coach Raleigh Holt of Ell Centre
eased up on drills this week in
order to assure an intact lineup
come Friday night.
Ell Centre must win this one to
remain in the league race and Holt
vile needs the victory to maintain
its chances to end the season with
a 800 standing.

to break into the win column and
even the most ardent Tiger rooter
will claim there's more than an out
side chance to dump the Bulldog
gridders.
But. as usual, the Imperial grid
ders will be there to play the best
brand of football they know and
observers will point out to you that
Calexico only managed to defeat
Imperial, 60, on break in their
first meeting.
Then there is always the posslbll-
ity that the Calexico eleven, riding
high after its 60, win over Ell Cen
tro last week, might bog down
against the last place Tigers.
CaleXicans pay little attention to
the above arguments, however, be-
cause all have extreme confidence
in Coach Ed Covington and his abil-
ity to overcome any such problems.

Purdue Vote
Dins Big Ten
Rose Bowl Hopes

CHICAGO. Nov. &c. UP)-An
unexpected no vote by Purdue
faculty members all but ended hopes
today that the Big Ten would send
its football champion to the Rose
Bowl New Years day.
Long a leader in a small Clique
favoring a permanent Rose Bowl
agreement between the Big Ten and
Pacific Coast conference, Purdue
switched its stand suddenly last
night and voted rs to 81 against
any poStseaSon football.
Officially. the vote now stands
two to one against participation.
Unofficially, it's five to four against
it.
Wisconsin turned in a unanimous
mo" vote three weeks ago and last
night, few hours before Purdue's
announcement, Iowa decided in ia
vor of a Rose Bowl agreement.
Those are the only schools def
initely committed. 1t was reported,
however, that Minnesota, North
western, and Illinois are dead set
against any further football after
the conference season has closed.
Iowa, and probably Indiana, Ohio
State and Michigan favor post-sea-
son football. Michigan's faculty
votes Saturday.
If the other schools elect to keep
their vote secret their actual stand
won't be known until conference
faculty representatives hold their
annual winter meeting Dec. 6-7 A
mo" vote by any of the four teams
believed in favor of the proposal
however, would be the clincher.
