In addition, he had the most putouts. 20, and the most assists, 4SS.
 George Kell of the Tigers, who paced all American League third basemen in hitting, did the same thing in fielding with Q .9SS mark. Kell handled more assists and more putoutS than any hot corner cus- todian and showed but seven mis- cues in SiS chances. His average missed beating Cleveland Willie KammS league standard by one point
 Cleveland1s playing pilot Lou Bou- dreau was the finest defensive Shortstop with a .970 mark, reached with 7G2 chances and only 22 errors, Boudresu was high man in putouts, SIS, and Luke Appiing of the White Sox was credited with most assists. 505.

6 Colleges Form Yonk Conference

Amherst, Mass, Dec. le-CUP)- New England's six state colleges and universities have formed a new ath- letic association to be known as the Yankee Conference.
 President Hugh P. Baker of Mass achusetts State College, chairman of the organization said that the new conference would grant preference to member schools in scheduling football, baseball, basketball and other games.
 The Yankee Conference is com prised of the Universities of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and Con- necticut, and the Rhode Island and Massachusetts State Colleges.
 Dr. Baker said members had adopted a common set of rules for athletic relations, and had agreed on a method Of selecting conference champions. The conference will en- force a freshman rule" requiring students to be in residence one year before becoming eligible for varsity competition.
 The new league is an outgrowth of the New England College confer ence on intercollegiate athletics which was founded in 1923. However it has been extended by the addi- tion of the University of Vermont and broadened by provisions for championship selection.

Bv OSCAR FRALEY

New York, Dec. ls-Cup)-Maj.- Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor, the U. s. Military Academy superintendent, came up today with & fine three point program for cleaning up col- lege football-out 1t won't work:
 The general suggested taking ath- letic control away from the ath- letic directors and turning it over to the college presidents; periodic open house on the college financial books, and definite assurance that athletes are bona flde students working earnestly for degrees,
 It won't work simply because General Taylor is one of the two college presidents in the nation who outrank their athletic directors. Lawrence (Bif) Jones, keeper ot the footballs at West Point, is only a colonel.
 "Td like to see Bin tell me what our athletic policy is going to be," !" the General laughed, the two stars glinting on his shoulder.
 Jones smiled self-consciouSly be- hind the General, probably think ing at the same moment, about his days at Nebraska, They don't have generals there.
 Taylor, who was involved in a rhubarb sometime ago with the powers-that-be at Mississippi State over who stole who's football player has 6 fine program there. The only thing is that it's like the ethics they teach you in business school codes of conduct which survive about 29 minutes on Wall Street. Coaches Could Rest The coaches undoubtedly would be in favor of having the college president responsible for the schoo athletic program. For the first time in years they could sleer peacefully at night, directing the alumni wolfpack with graceful ges- lures in the general direction of the presidents study. The mortality rate among football educator; would drop tremendously and the rate conversely leap among the ranks of the presidents
 It probably would get so bad thai football coaches would have tc carry their own presidents with them.
 The current rate of swivel -hippec halfbacks and keg-legged guards to corn some phrases, would be en. tertaining and educational. Ths

The Big Five CNseAD
Notes

ENVeNE
 Each week, folks, the Rollers look more and more like they mean busi- ness in their drive to the top. They strengthened this impression again last Friday night by sweeping three games from Bill Germans Headers, thus extending their latest winning streak to six in row. The shutout enabled them to go five games In front of the Inspectors and Auto- matics, second place tenants, who were both suffering double set- back. Slick Vic Manello, also re- ferred to as "The Broom" and Golden Boy Guarini did some neat clutch bowling for the Rollers, as, needless to say, did Tony Garafano.
 Tessie Holme, who of late seems to be the only star in the Packers blue heaven, rolled the best three game set, for a girl, in the history of the B-J circuit, a scintillating $40 score. This fine performance enabled the Packers to win a 2-l decision over the mauled Machin- istS.
 c. c, Great Cowhand) Skilton was handed a shocking surprise by the ramparts of what was sup posed to be Threaders team. The Plymouth posSun was anticipating a three-game victory over Nick Col angelo's crippled team. What with Paul Burgio and Rocky Marcan- tonic on the sick list, who wouldn't. Instead he took a 2-l beating.
 Of course the confident cowboy didn't know that Virginia Sheperd would fail to show up or that Barb Tripp would have one of her best nights of the season to completely smother that 79 handicap that Sheperd was penalized. SRilton outdid himself with the nights best score a neat 36S total. Jack Cough lin who has designs on copping that Glass c title, was certainly in a class by himself last Friday and it wasn't c. It was more like G; any way Captain Skilton didn't appre- ciate his efforts. Could it he that the Plymouth strongboy is tiring under that tremendous load he has to carry every week.
 Ctpriano beat Gugliotti in theii much match but that dio not stop the Slotters from upset ting the Automatics by 2-l score thanks to Ace Danisevich who es' tablished a girls high single rec ord of i30 and 6 3S4 total. Googit pressed the Prospect Prophet bu | in each game Clip came througf strong in the last couple of frames

 Pres Oppose Scheme
 But General Taylor's demand for bona fide students working toward degrees is even more intriguing,
 The only way you can solve that and still have a top-flight football team worth $450 ticket is to create that RF degree. For the General admits that studying hard, as the Cadets do at West Point, and playing football on top of 1t is . gruelhng chore.
 The professional leagues probably would lobby against this with tierc-

GOSPEL TALKS
BY r. C. Valentine
Postor. Presbyterian Church

"Canst thou by searching find out
God? Canst t h u find out the AL
mighty unto perfection? 1t is high
as heaven the measure thereof
is longer than the earth, and broader
than the sea-" Job ll:7-9.
Travelling along the beautiful
coastllne of California this week, we
ENJOYED seeing again the vast Paci-
fic ocean stretching as far as the
eye could see. While we could not
see more than a few miles of that
expansive body of water, we knew
that 1t covered a large fraction of
the earth's surface and the waters
that were tapping the shore at our
feet were also embracing strange
lands thousands of miles away. We
knew that we could never see the
whole of that ocean nor could we
enclose 1t in any container. 1t was
vast-too vast for us to comprehend.
SO is our God. We can never
search out all His ways or compre-
bend His being. His projections are
broader than the sea. We who are
finite can never expect to compre-
bend the infinite. Yet, God has re-
vealed Himself so that we can know
Him. What we could never find out
by searching, He has revealed to us.
Thus, in His Word we learn that He
alone is God and that He is just
and righteous God. We also are told
of His great love wherewith He has
loved us. In His love He sent His
Son to die for the sins of His crea-
lures. BY faith in the Sons saving
grace, we become children of God
and know H m intimately as our
Father. So, while we cannot COM
prehend Him in our finite minds, we
can know Him as our God and
Father and trust Him to save and
keep us as His children.

she was named to Pi Delta Epsilon,
national journalism fraternity.
Perhaps the quality W h ich has
more than anything else enabled her
to achieve such distinction has been
the underlying philosophy which
has given Georgene an appreciation
for the good, the true, and the
beautiful This appreciation is made
manifest in the SEA cabinet and in
her participation in the Presby terrain
Fellowship.
Georgene has proved her ability
in many varied activities. She was
a member of the Presidents Council,
she headed the lighting crew for the
dance programs, she played in the
orchestra for two years, and she be-
longed to Chemistry Club and to
Maskers. This year she was named
to Who's Who Among Students in
American Universities and Colleges.
