Many Big Ten
Rules Dropped

Chicago, June 25.-(UP)-TheB Big
Ten Conference, recognizing that
the armed services have assumed
command of the collegiate sports
scene for the duration, decreed to-
day that it's events no longer will
be described as intercollegiate"
The conference faculty committee
ruled that Big Ten athletes
whether they be freshmen, soldiers,
sailors, marines or holders of AZ
draft cards-will hereafter compete
for the physical benefits only, not
for competitive recognition.
Accordingly the committee turned
over the responsibility of determin-
ing eligibility of individual athletes
to the member schools, waving all
but two of the Big Tens restric-
lions.
The Conference henceforth will
demand only that the competing
athlete be a regularly enrolled
scholar and that he must not re-
ceive compensation for his athletic
services.

Leagues Not
To Fold Says
Bill Horridge
BY JACK CUDDY
UNITED Press STAFF CorrespOndenty

UNITED Press STAFF COrrespOndent)
New York, June 25.-Some misin-
formed pessimist apparently have
given Babe Ruth false data on the
current major league attendance
situation.
The Bambino, while visiting Cleve-
land Wednesday, expressed doubt
that the majors would survive the
present season. He said: "It all
depends on how long the owners
care to keep losing money"
These remarks mystified many
baseball people, particularly Messrs.
Ford Prick and William Harridge,
presidents of the National and
American leagues, respectively, who
are mildly gratified over attendance.
It's not as bad as expected.
Harridge said last night via the
telephone from Chicago: II don't
know where Babe Ruth got his in
formation, but can assure you that
no club in the American league will
fold up this season for financial
reasons"
1.-The American league certainly
will finish the season unless the
government begins taking fathers
with children for military service
or unless the transportation of play
ers is additionally restricted" Har-
ridge added. Naturally our attend
ance will not be up to last season,
when the American league drew
close to 100000 persons. But We
are having a good year, under the
circumstances. Even in banner
years, some clubs lose money. We
expect that"
In New York Prick almost dupli-
Gated Harridge's statement. He said:
GAS far as attendance is concerned,
the National league will finish the
season all right. AS matter Of
fact, I'm quite pleased with our
attendance. Before the season
opened, we expected it to be off
from 20 to 25 per cent. But it's
not that bad, although we had the
worst weather I can remember dur
ing the first month Of play. -Four
of our clubs are ahead of last year
at the gate, and four are off,"
The two presidents emphasized
that everyone expected attendance
to be smaller this season because
more than 100000 potential fans
are in service and because of trans
portation difficulties for fans in
certain areas They agreed, how
ever, that attendance has been
helped by transporta ton restrictions
almost as much as it has been han
dicapped, because the restrictions
prevented fans from migrating from
major league cities to the country
on week-ends during the summer.
What are the prospects for play
ing next season?
Prick and Harridge. said those
prospects depended entirely upon
the progress of the war and upon
government needs-not upon this
seasons attendance.

New York, June 25.-Clark Grif-
fifth, the Old Fox, outfoXed the
Yankees when he slipped them Bill
zuber, run-of-mine pitcher who
has been around since 1882, for
Jerry Priddy and Milo Candini.
Priddy is no longer the confused
youngster who could not make a
place for himself in the New York
infield. Given a green light at
second base, told that the position
was his regardless, Priddy made the
washington infield. He's all over
it like a tarpaulin on a rainy day.
Candini's seventh straight victory
was a six-hit shutout of his old
teammates which took the Sena-
tors to within one game of the Yam
KEGS and a tie for the league lead.
He hit home run over Tuck Stain
backs head in center field and in
side of the park and double.
Magician Candini deals a fast
ball from the bottom of the deck.
Candini stands six feet, weighs 1870
pounds. A tight delivery makes
him appear awkward, but he has
control and stuff. He walked only
one Yankee, was in complete COM
mands all the way along the route.
Candini injured his strong right
arms in the same exhibition game
in which Marius Russo of the Yam
KEGS hurt his two training seasons
ago. He says the Newark club
gave him no chance to cure, his
soupbone, worked him day after day
until he could comb his hair.
His arm trouble was the princi-
IRl reason the Yankees chucked
him in the Zuber deal.
Mike Martin, veteran Washington
trainer, patiently rubbed the sore
ness out of Candidi's arm, put him
on a conditioning program-and
presto! Clark Griffith had the best
pitcher in baseball this season to
date

Baseball Receipts Not AS Bad As Expected
Roy ToIcott
Makes Debut

BY COLLIE SMALL
UNITED Press Staff Correspondent


New York, June 25.-UP)--The
st. Louis Cardinals rode the crest
of a game and a half lead in the
National league today, the Brook
lyn Dodgers having been sucked I'M
der for the nonce by the undertow
of a defeat at the hands of the
New York Giants.
Harry Gumbert's puzzling wham-
my on the Cincinnati Reds held
good for the third straight time
yesterday as the Cardinals won a
swing shift game, 81, for a two-to-
one edge in the series. Bucky Wal
tiers went under in trying to get
over the hump to his fourth vic
tory, making the six successive time
he had missed.
Long Cliff Melton's fast ball blew
the Dodgers into a 81 defeat. The
Brooks were permitted only three
hits over the stretch, while the
Giants scored their two decisive
runs off Ed Head in the eighth and
ninth innings after he had relieved
Whit Wyatt, who was lifted for a
pinch-hitter.
The Pittsburgh Pirates helped Rip
Sewell to his ninth pitching vic
tory and his fifth in a row over
the Chicago Cubs by winning a 81
decision. In outduelling big Bill
Lee, Chicago Highlander, Sewell
permitted II hits, three of them
from the bat of Bill Nicholson.
Tho philode1pT1ia phillieS squared
their series with the Boston Braves
by unloading Is hits for 1875 tri-
umph. Veteran ST Johnson went
the distance for the Phillies in re-
cording his seventh victory of the
season while the Braves were using
four pitchers-Dave Odom, Roy
Talcott, Allyn Stout and Kirby Far
rell, whose forte actually is playing
first base.
