 Ten Year Blank

Unless the protest committee of the IRA basketball league rules in favor of American Brass, eliminat- ing it's 50-46 defeat by U. s. Rubber of Naugatuck last night, the Water bury outfit is just about out of the running for first round honors.
 The written complaint filed by Player-Coach Joe Boley of Ameri- can Brass, charging misinterpreta- ton of rule by Referee Joe Mobile, was the second of the evening, Seth Thcmas having protested the Wa terbury Companies 33-23 victory in the first of two games, charging that the winners used an ineligible play CT, Radke by name,
 Many Fouls
 With two referees providing plenty of whistle in the Rubber Brass game, nearly 50 personal fouls were called; the losers scoring Is points on free throws; but outShot 20 to 16 in field goals. The Brassies were six points behind as the final quar- ter opened, but had a 4l-40 lead when the argument got hot after Farrar and Rinaldi were charged with pushing each other as the teams lined up for free throw by CieSelWski, USR manager, who had to get into uniform when fe lost two players on fouls with three others having four each up to that time. Rubbermen led 20 to l3 at half time but Brass finished strong tied the score, went ahead and then lost the game in the last two minutes; after notification of the protest was given Farrar of Rubber having four personal fouls at the time of the pushing inci- dent under the west basket.
 The win puts the borough team back at the top of the league -un- l1 the ABC protest is ruled upon, 1 Chet Wojack and Prank Edmonos accounted for 26 USR points; Al Monti and Joe Boley, 2l for the Brassmen, Score:

United Press Stah COrrespOndent)
 New York, Fep. 1.-(UP)-Asa $. Bushnell, executive director of the central office for eastern intercol- legiate athletics, warned today that changing the sites of college basket ball games will not cure the betting evil.
 Conservative Bushnell, whose of- flee serves 19 collegiate organiZa- tionS in the east, cautioned: Those who demand loudly that colleges withdraw their teams from large arenas like Madison Square Garden are merely evading the gambling issue. They are not facing the facts. They are trying to grab a quick solution out of the air.
 T take exception to their state ments because they are danger ously misleading at time like this when a thorough investigation and intelligent consideration is neces- sary before we can even hope for a solution. Would that the situa- tion were as simple as the site changers describe. In that case, would be the first to accept their Care-all. I would be the first to say, Take the games away from the big arenas and the promoters But unfortunately it's not that sim pie, because the sites have virtually nothing to do with the problem. |"
 Bushnell speaks with authority on the situation not only because of his key position in eastern col lege athletics but also because he was member of the National Col, legiate associations three-man in- vestigating committee which turned in report on gambling at last months NC.A.A. convention al Columbus, O.
 He emphasized today that investi. gation disclosed most big betting on basketball games as occurring away from the buildings where games are played, although some wagering is done on the premises" Most transactions are made before the games in offices, hotels, tavernS and on the streets, he said.
 Bushnell continued, Handicap ping SerVlceS quote prlceS on campus games, just as they do on games staged in New York, Philadelphia Boston and other large cities. It's almost as easy for man in Bethle- hem, Pa, to bet on a game at Madi- son Square Garden, as it is for a New Yorker to bet on a Lehigh-La- fayette game at Bethlehem. The sites are incidental to the situation, and whether it would be easier for gamblers to attempt preliminary telephone contacts with athletes on campus or in city is purely a matter of opinion"
 Bushnell's warning was issued to combat efforts of back to- the campus apostles like pr. Forrest c. tPhog) Allen of Kansas U.; Bill Alexander. recently resigned foot ball coach of Georgia Tech; and U. s. Representative Donald l.. OToole of Brooklyn. These men are urging return to the college gymnasiumS as preventive of gambling and collision, such as was disclosed in the recent Brook

McPhoiI, Barrow Weiss Confer

New York, Feb. l-CUP)-Col Le- land s. Darry) McPhail, who will take over the New York Yankees next month as head of a three -man syndicate, conferred today with Edward G. Barrow, retiring pres ident, and George Weiss, director of the Yankee Farm system.
 Both Barrow and Weiss will re- main with the Yankee organiza- tion, the former as chairman of the board of directors and the latter as director of the farm clubs.
 Barrow, in a statement said he recommended the deal proposed by MacPhail and his associates, Capt. Dan Topping and Del Webb, al- though their price ($2 800 ,O0O) was much too low"
 When l agreed to approve the sale of the club, knew it would be a severe blow to my pride but he (McPhaiD said no such thing that l could have any office I wanted. told him we could not both be head man and that l would stay as chair man of the board as long as my health would permit.
 Advisor
 "As my policy is never to inter- fere, am sure we will get along without friction. told him that he should be president and run things and l would stay in an advisory capacity I will support him when he is in the right, but when he is wrong l will simply keep my mouth shut
 Barrow is believed to have issued the statement because many base ball men felt he would step out of the game once MacPhail takes over Feb. 10 when the new buyer will be placed on inactive army duty.

 Bushnell concluded, Advocates of a return to the college gymnasiums probably are speaking in good faith: They may mean well; but I hope the nations college athletic direc- tors do not listen to them.
