OldfieId, Pioneer Auto Racer at IS Discovers
He Can Enjoy Life Without Riskinq His Neck
Once Daredevil Driver,
Barney Now Aims to Be

BY FRANK FRAWLEY,
Associated Press Sports Writer,

Associated Press Sports Writer
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 30.-The
years are doing things to that one
time automobile speed demon, Bar
ney Oldfeld.
Barney, cigar chewing daredevil
of the dirt tracks in the linen duster
and Kerosene head lamp era. was
65 yesterday. He admits he has

1t took hundreds of brushes with
death, scores Of accidents and busi-

every venture that came along.
The Oldf1eld who had nerve
enough to drive Henry Ford's first
racer. the 1899" is committed
stanchly to a national traffic safety
program. He thinks the best thing
that's happened to the country in
a long while is the 35-mile- hour
speed limit.
No, Barney hasn't gone sour on
auto racing. He thinks it's great
game. Says, however, that If he
had his life to live over again he'd
be speed flyer and test pilot,
mainly for the thrill. partly because
flying offers more to the young
man than driving.
Now "Pessimistic Optimist."
But I have lived to become a
pessimistic optimist," Barney ex-
plains with a roguish smile. Il

think the car of the future is
going to be for transportation rath-
er than luxury. There'll probably
be tax on horsepower. There is
on everything else.
I'VE are learning to get along
without luxuries and like it. We're
forming some good habits in this
war. We will demand and get
postwar auto that is much cheaper
to operate than any we now know"
Barney was the first auto race
driver. In 1902 he drove Ford's
cumbersome contraption at a mile
a-minute clip equaling the best
time of the fastest trains. For Is
years he engaged in match and open
races with the best drivers in the
game.

Today Oldfleld owns a country

uated miles from Hollywood and
embraces II acres. 1t has catered
to barbecues, picnics and dances.

But these aren't country club
days." Barney points out. "and my
wife and I are converting the club
into ranch. She has started with
some chickens and a few cows.
That's long, long Jump from auto
racing, all right, but In trying to
get the postwar slant 1t looks all
right to me.
ITS not as exciting as losing a
quarter of million on the stock
market, which I did in 1929; it's
slower. 1t takes longer to lose

Knox Taking Big Risk
In Fighting Conway
tomorrow Night
Not in Good Trim, Buddy
Will Foee Heavy With
Punch in Both Hands

Buddy Knox. youthful trial horse,
may have bitten of more than he
can chew in accepting the assign
ment against Client Conway tomor-
row night at Turner's Arena. On
the form sheet, he figures to find the
eight-round route too tough against
an up-and-coming fighter OF the
colored boys caliber.
Knox, old in the ways Of the ring
despite his comparative youth. is
past his peak and has no illusions
about his fistic future. but the Boil
ing Field soldier thinks himself still
capable of handling the brand of
competition usually found around a
small fight club and thereby adding
to his Army pay. But 1t is In the
small clubs that ring rockies put
their foot on the first rung OF the
ladder and beating one-time rank
ing fighters is the surest way up.
Conway Is listed as promising
young heavyweight. In previous ap-
pearances here against Buddy Ko-
mar and King Kong he has shown
he can punch with either hand. take
a good belt on the whiskers and box
fairly we'll. He shouldn't find Knox
as easy as some previous opponents,
but he has the necessary equipment
to win.
Knox isn't in the best condition.
A solid smash to the tllmmy by
Buddy Moore flattened him and
shattered his hopes of a comeback
last November. He is smart and
careful, but against Conway he'll be
at disadvantage in height and reach.
The winner Of this scrap probably
| will be matched with Komar.
Danny Petro, rising young feath-
erweight star, and Wayman Stewart
will mingle in the eight-round semi
final with Tuffy Cummings and Roy
Lewis down for a six-rounder that
seems to be the best OF the pre-
liminaries. =.

DALLAS, Tex, Jan. 30.-"Not too

That's the way Pinky Higgins,
veteran third baseman Of the De-

American League race.
Higgins, who reports March Is to
Evansville, Ind. for spring train

taken so many stars the big leagues

This doesn't worry Pinky. 1t just

fuses to guess which club will come
out on top.
Higgins believes that this year a
player should stay in condition
throughout the winter instead of
spending a furious month trying to
whip of the fat.
II always have contended that if
a man is going to depend upon
baseball for living ne should go
about it in a businesslike manner"
Higgins declared.
Pinky, weighing 100 and appear
ing in top condition, said he had
pursued his usual policy OF doing a
lot of work and walking during the
fall and winter months.

Become BasebaII's
Busiest Traders
Roster Of Loop Champs
Bereft of Old Sturs
During OFF Season
BY JUDSON BAILEY.
Associated Press Sports Writer

aSSoClated Press sports Writer.
NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-The New
York Yankees who used to spend
the winters in regal aloofness to-
ward the trading efforts of the other
major league clubs, have become
the busiest barterers in baseball.
This month the American League
champions completed two trades
and the sale Of Vernon Gefty)
Gomez within eight days and pre-
viously had maneuvered the WIN
ter's biggest multiple player swap
with the Cleveland Indians.
1t all goes to show how times
have changed and how different the
Yankees are going to look next sea-
son.. They now have 30 players on
their reserve list, the fewest in
years, and about half of these are
newcomers. Other changes yet may
come.
New Yanks Unspectacular.
Gone from last years familiar ar
ray are Gomez, who was sold to the
Boston Braves for an estimated ST.
500: Inflelder Gerry Priddv, who
was traded to Washington yester-
Gay along with Milo Candini a
minor league pitcher: Catcher
Buddy Rosar and Outfielder Roy
Cullenbine, who were traded TO
Cleveland; Infelder Red Rolfe. who
has voluntarily retired to coach
basketball and baseball at Yale, and
Pitcher Red Ruffing, First Baseman
Buddy Hassett and Outfielders Tom
Heinrich and George Selkirk, all of
whcm have entered military service.
To compensate for this big turn
over the YankS have obtained an
unspectacular assortment of refills,
including Pitcher Bill Zuber from
Washington, where he won nine and
lost nine last year: Outfelder. Roy
Weatherly and Infielder Oscar
Grimes from Cleveland, where they
batted .258 and .179, respectively:
First Baseman Nick Etten, who hit
.264 for the Phils, and Infielder Billy
Knickerbocker. free agent who was
with the Yanks once before without
distinguishing himself.
Banks on Several Farm Hands.
The Yanks also are banking on
several Of their farm hands called
up from minor league affiliates-
such prospects as Pitchers Rinaldo
Ardizoia and Tom Byrnes, Infielders
George Stirnweiss and Bill johnson.
and Outfielder Bud Metheny. But
the pickings are slim because the
Yanks' minor league holdings are
having troubles of their own.
Aside from the Yankee deals, the
biggest business of the winter has
included the Cincinnati Reds ex-
changing Eddie Joost, Nate Andrews
and cash for Shortstop Eddie Miller
OF the Boston Braves; the Reds
sale of Paul Derringer, their big
pitching dean, and Outfielder Ival
Goodman to the Chicago Cubs in
separate transactions; Brooklyn
sending Johnny Allen and $4,000
to the Phils for Pitcher Rube Melton
the Dodgers signing sOutfielders Paul
Waner and Johnny Cooney after
they had been released by the Boston
Braves, and < Washington swapping
Paul Dean to- the st, Louis Browns
for Pitcher Elden Auker, who sub
sequently said he was quitting base
ball.
Other clubs also have augmented
their squads by signing free agents
-Estel Crabtree going to the Reds
and Mike Kreevich to the Browns in
this manner.
