University of Maryland hopes to

open it, but Athletic Director Geary
Eppley knows nothing about rumors
that Southern California would be
the team to come here for that

Clark Shaughnessy (then football
coach) about possibly playing some
West Coast school," Eppley said.
He talked to a lot of schools out

NEW YORK, Jan. 22.-Bobby
Feller has signed for an estimated
$4,000 salary for 1947, which ties
Babe Ruth's top wages, but when it
comes to take-home pay, the superb
Singer of the Indians still is far
back of the great Bambino, who
used to take it home in carload lots.
For the Babe made his $4,000
in 1930-31 when the buck still was
a buck. According to the monetary
experts, Ruth's real earnings on that
per annum wage would be about
the equivalent of $150,000 salary
today.
Besides, the Babe made huge
fortune on movies. transforming,
ghosted articles, Endorsements and
what have you. In 1880, for in
stance, he collected $130,000 from all
his enterprises.
Near 100000 in 1916.
Feller, too, has good eye toward
the dollar and has picked up his
share in extra-curricular events.
The major leagues strikeout king
recently estimated his total 1916
earnings "between $95 900 and $780,
900. He received $45, 900 in straight
salary, another $4,000 in bonus
payments and the rest in indorse-
ments and transforming.
Although no actual figures were
announced, President Bill Veeck of
the Indians said Feller's contract
contained six bonus clauses. all
based on attendance figures. 1t was
believed that his base salary called
for about $4,000" Ruth's $4,000
incidentally, was a straight salary
A check with the Bureau of Labor
Statistics in Washington revealed
that the 1880 dollar is worth $1.40
today. The New York office OF the
Bureau of Internal Revenue esti-
mated that Uncle Sam collected
approximately $10,500 on an 100000
salary in 1890 and '31-the year
Babe received that much from the
Yankees. The same bureau esti-
mated that SAC, 500 would be collected
on similar salary in 1947, such as
Feller's.
Before Feller signed his 80-grand
contract, Hank Greenberg's 100000
in 1916 came closest to the Babes
figure. The former Tiger slugger,
who recently was sold to the Pitts
burgh Pirates, has not disclosed
how much he would ask for this
year.
Ty Cobb Got $4,000.
Next in line to Greenberg is Ty
Cobb, the Tigers great outflelder,
who received in excess of $50,000 by
Connie Mack to play for the Phila-
delphia Athletics in 1927.
Hal Newhouser, rival of Feller
for pitching honors in the major
leagues, repeatedly was paid $45 900
for winning Is games for the Tigers

Western Kentucky State, which

and its 10th in IL starts last night
at New York by beating st. Johns

Hoyas will take a two-game losing
streak into the Western Kentucky

Hockey Lions Puzzled
Trying 10 Figure Out
Reason for Losses
By GEORGE Huber

What's wrong with the Lions?
81 wish I knew" said glum Coach
Jack Riley after last nights affair
at Uline's. Tonight we were the
worst team in the league. We're
as good as any of them, but you
could never tell it from the way we
played tonight
vt happens to hockey teams
sometimes" chimed in Defenseman
Tommy Campbell Look at the
Chicago Blackhawks-last year they
led the National League and this
wear with the same players they're
getting pushed around by every
body"
We're just STALE" inserted an
other player. I'VE get a week S
layoff soon (the Ice-Cycles come
here for a week starting February
Il and what we all ought to do is
60 home and loaf and not even
think about hockey
That's not it at all" rejoined
another player. "It isn't that we're
stale, it's the other way around.
What we need is lots of practice.
When we get that layoff we ought
to go up to Hershey, the whole
bunch of us, and practice twice
day"
Added still another player: cat
this time of year no hockey team
should need practice. After Christ
mas no hockey player should need
any more work than just those
three or four games week. That's
enough for anybody. We're just In
a rut, but all of a sudden we'll snap
out of it. We're as good as any club
in this league, but we're just not
clicking"
The Lions absorbed 1915 licking
from last-place Boston. They were
shorthanded and Riley, Campbell
and Phil Vitale had to do double
duty on defense. In the second
period Vitale got a 10-minute mis-
conduct penalty, and Riley and
Campbell had to spend the whole
10 minutes on the ice without re-
lief, which is too long.
In the third period most of the
damage was done as the Pics pulled
out the cork and sent in four sue
cessive goals that changed 5-3 lead
into an uncatchable 9-3 edge before
the Lions scored again.
incidentally the last two Lion
scores late in the game were by Nick

Marshall Wants Line
Drawn Between Two
Divisions Of NFL
BY the Assoeioied Press

CHICAGO, Jan. 22.-Wlth George

of the Washington Redskins and
Detroit Lions. respectively, propos-
ing schedule innovations, represent
atives of the National Football
League begin a three-day schedule
charting session for 1947 tomorrow
with the hope of pleasing everybody.
Marshall said he would like to
keep the Eastern and Western Dl-
visions of the league fully separated,
with the five clubs in each bracket
playing a home -and-home schedule
or possibly three games against each
other without stepping over the di-
visional line for league games.
Mandel is campaigning for a
round-robin schedule with clubs
playing home-and-home dates with
in their respective sections and
meeting each club in the other
sections once for 13-game season.
Last year the league teams each
played II games, eight within their
own division, which left only three
dates for interdivision competition.
This arrangement prevented fans
from regularly seeing many OF the
leagues teams, Mandel contends in
seeking a more balanced schedule
as we'll as more games. He believes
added contests are an economic
necessity because Of increases in
player salaries and other expenses.
Also slated for action are more
than a dozen proposed playing rule
changes. A discussion on the feasl-
bility of utilizing baseball parks of
the American Association to expand

Philadelphia Wizard,
Top League Scorer,
Is Biq Attraction

Joe Fulks, skinny, silent gum
chewing future teacher who is the
top professional basket ball scorer
today and possibly the greatest ever
in the business, will lead the improv-
ing Philadelphia Warriors against
the league-leading Washington
Capitols tonight at Uline Arena at
$3.50 O'Clock.
The Caps have won Is games and
lost six, but the bait for an antici-
pated capacity crowd tonight will
be Fulks. His spectacular scoring
has boosted the Warriors toward
second place in the Eastern Division
of the Basket Ball Association OF
America.
Lanky Bones Mckinney will be
assigned the job Of attempting to
stop Fulks, who scored % points in
a previous appearance here.
Ladies' Night at Arena.
1t will be ladies' night at Uline's
and Coach Red Auerbach Of the
Caps expects considerable soprano
screeching as Washington tries to
halt the Warriors, who trounced the
Boston Celtics, 59-43, last night as
F'ulks scored % points. To most
fans, however, the game will be
sidelight as they focus attention on
F1llks, who says, Il just love to
shoot"
OF course, that's nothing unusual
in a basket ball player. A guy who
can't make the basket strings swish
isn't worth his weight on basket
ball court.
Yet it's different with Fulks. He's
team player, not ball hog or a
basket hanger, and he attributes his
phenominal point making to his love
for offensive basket ball."
1T takes points to win games" the
lanky, pokerface ex-Marine sergeant
says, "and since I want most to win
| I shoot"
Al Points in One Game.
The 24tyear-old Kuttawa (Ky)
ace-a graduate of Murray State
Teachers-holds the BAA record for
the most points in a single game:
Al against Toronto. In 80 games this
season he has scored 731 points, in
Guiding 256 field goals and 219 fouls
Basket Ball Association opponents
and coaches, together with court ex-
perts throughout the country, are
unanimous in the opinion that F'ulks
is the best SHOEMAKER to cross the
horizon since Willie Hummer of the
Connellsville (Pa.) club in the old
Central League.
Hummer, who shot all his teams
fouls "a practice in those days.,
dumped in 1.404 points in 62 games
during the 1911-12 season. For this
he claims the world pro scoring rec
ord. RUNNERS total included 938
fouls and 233 field goals.
If Fulks continues to average Is
points in his remaining 81 games
he's cinch to erase RUNNERS 35-
year-old mark.
Seven times Fulks has scored more
than 80 points in single game. He
makes at least one of every three
shots he tosses toward the basket,
mark that brings this comment
from Warriors Coach Eddie Gott-
lieb:
"Fulks rarely throws bad shot.
He is the greatest offensive player
