Pro Tackle Discounts
Own Abilities in Suit
BY the Associated Press

CLEVELAND, Aug. 29.-The Cleve-
land Browns of the All-America
Conference discount the abilities of
Tackle Chef Adams, although they're
engaged in court battle for his
services.
In Federal Court here yesterday
Assistant Coach William r. Conk-
right described Adams as an cratic
kicker given to booting the ball over
the sidehnes and at present a
second-team player.
The champion Los Angeles Rams
OF the National Football League
have filed an injunction suit seek
ing to prevent Adams from playing
with the Browns. Adams signed a
contract with the Rams before the
franchise was moved to Los Angeles
and later signed to play with the
Browns.
Testifying in court, Adams follow
ed the cue of his attorneys who in
a day-long testimony sought to
prove that he was not a player of
unique ability" as the suit filed by
the Rams claims.
Adams declared that leg injuries
suffered in the College All-Star-
Green Bay Packer game a year ago
impaired his abilities as a profess
sional league tackle and prevents
him from playing his best football.

But Still Search for
Capable Centers

Size Of the University Of Mary

appreciably yesterday, when two
more hefty candidates reported to
Chief Assistant Coach AL Heagy
They are Jim Goodman, a 275-
pound tackle and fullback from
Mount st. Joseph's in Baltimore,
and Chris Matthews, 210-pounder
and another Baltimorean who re-
ceived his scholastic experience. as
a tackle at Patterson Park High
School.
AS far as Maryland records show
Goodman is the heftiest gridder
ever to turn out there. In his high
school days he won the shot and
discus events at the 1941 Maryland
interscholastic track and field meet
Old Line coaches are more con-
cerned about the center position
than any other spot on the team
There are players galore for all
other posts, but among the centers
Art Simpson, a newcomer who fig
ured in spring drills, is the only one
on whom they have any real line
He'll tall and husky and scales 2o8

Monday, when Head Coach Clark
ShaughneSsy takes over the squad
Glenn Cox, 195-pound 6-footer

He's from Newell, w. Va. Other

PasqueI's Suit Seeks
S127,5OO From Owen;
Mexico Bars TripIet
by the Assesioisd Press

SPRINGFIELD, Mo-, Aug. 49,
Crossing the Rio Grande. already an
expensive pastime, will cose Mickey
Owen another $127,500 If Jorge
Pasquel, the Mexican baseball over
lord, can collect 1t.
Pasquel sued the Missouri farmer
and former Brooklyn Dodger now
barred from organized baseball, for
that amount yesterday in Federal
Court. Pasquel claims Mickey vio-
lated flve-year contract to play in
the Mexican League. He asked
100000 damages for the alleged
breach Of contract and the return
of 1900 he claimed was advanced
to Owen as salary and bonus.
Even as he was filing the breach
Of contract suit, Senior Pasquel was
doing q bit of contract cancelling
himself. He slammed the door In
the face Of Hooper Triplett, late OF
the Columbus (Ga.) Cardinals, bar
red for life from organized ball In
the United States on a charge OF
betting against his own team.
Trtplett had contracted with the
Nuevo Laredo Juntas on one
month trial basis at 1000. Pasquel
ordered the agreement Cancelled.
The Mexican League president
sent telegram to Nueva Laredo
club president, Erasmo Flores, and
to other league heads stating that
'in order to preserve the prestige OF
the Mexican Baseball League we
cannot under any circumstances &C
cept Hooper Triplett in view Of the
fact he has been expelled by the
United States baseball on a charge
Of betting against his club"
Triplett had been scheduled to
play with the Juntas against Mon
terrey today.
Thus Triplett, like Owen, has been
exiled from organized diamonds on
both sides OF the international
boundary-but for an entirely diff
ferent reason.
Mickey's fall from grace came
with his desertion of the Brooks on
his release from the Navy last April
Later when he got fed up" with the
cactus country, Owen came back to
the United States and asked to be
reinstated. Commissioner A. B
Chandler denied his appeal.
