Led by the veteran BUZZ" Doll,

the Bruins shellacked the Maple

thus erased some of the sting of

CHICAGO, Nov. 24.-At an age
when most men have retired to . life
Of quietude, leaving the affairs Of
business to those younger tn years,
the amazing 77-year-old Kenesaw
Mountain Lands still Is vigorously
riding herd over the baseball
industry.
Recently feeble rumors have been
heard that perhaps the commits
sioner Of basbau should retire, leav-
ing the inference that younger blood
may be needed.
But the crisp-speaking, 129-pound
baseball chief still remains the SYM
Dol Of integrity and honesty. keeping
vigil over the ind,stry's code, en-
forcing regulations with q mailed
'fist and with strict impartiality.
This has been . great, active year
for Lands as he successfully guided
the big business through a crisis
imposed by the war. The Landis-
Eastman line for spring training In
the North was his nrst enterprising
step, the firing Of william D. Cox
his second.
Acts After Long Probe.
Lands concluded q three month
investigation yesterday. It resulted
in Cox, former president and direc-
tor Of the Philadelphia Phils, being
barred from baseball for life for bet
ting on games in which his club was
involved. Although Lands previous
ly had ousted players, broken up
farm systems and, in general, ruled
baseball with an iron hand during
his 22-year tenure, this is the first
time he dismissed q club owner or
president.
Cox, wealthy 34-year- -old New
York lumberman, bought the finan-
cially embarrassed Phillies from the
National League on February 20.
He jumped into baseball with both
feet, hiring Stanley "Bucky" Harris
as manager and beginning a cam
paign Of player deals. Harris, vet
eran American League pilot, gave
the team fine start. and by July 4
the "rejuvenated Phillies" (they
finally wound up the season in
seventh place. had packed in more
spectators at home than they did
during the entire 1942 season. Late
In July, Cox startled the baseball
world by discharging Harris and
Coach Earl Whitehiu.
Resigns on November Is.
In a formal 850-word statement,
Lands yesterday disclosed that Cox
had resigned as president and d.
rector Of the club November Is Ito

business; that the probe had started
in August, and that Cox was notified
to report for a hearing on the bet
ting charges in New York Decem-
Der 4.
Cox, however, refused to attend the
hearing. declaring, "' =" do not
see any useful purpose could be
served by my attending any further
hearing before you"
Lands said that Cox first asserted
that the allegations he had bet on
games were ridiculous" but later
on November ) in New York had ad-
mitted placing approximately is to
20 bets" of from $25 to 500 per game
on Philadelphia to win.
Cox said he had quit wagering

Important high school football
games are scheduled on two fronts
tomorrow with Tech and Wilson

Stadium to decide second place in
the District high school series and
Washington-Lee and George Wash
ington tangling at 10:30 o'clock in
the morning at Alexandria in the
annual Old Oaken Bucket series
game.
Tech has been listed a very slight
favorite to beat Wilson. This is
based on the fact that the Maroons
this time will have Whitley Emswel-
Ter, passing, kicking and running
backfield ace, who was missing
when they played Wilson q scoreless
tie during the seasons round robin.
Wilson Backned Weakened.
Wilson also will be handicapped
by the absence, at least part Of the
time, of Russ Keith and Pearce
Godfrey, both valuable backs. God
frey almost beat Tech in the earlier
game when he intercepted q pass
and ran IS yards to Techs /. The
halftime whistle blew before the
Tigers could cash in on this break,
however. Wilson has an especially
good line, though, that may put 4
crimp in Techs T attack.
Tomorrow's winner will play Cool
idge next Tuesday for the title.
The nearby Virginia Old Oaken
Bucket series goes back to 1885, but
the old series between George Wash
ington and Washington-Lee started
in 1926. Washington-Lee has won
nine games and George Washing
ton eight, while two others were

The Presidents, however, since last
