NIL Scores Beut Over A-A
Bv Grabbing FuI|buck Daley

Daley's action, which was not
wholly unexpected, was the third
telling blow struck at the ALL
America by the National League
within the last 10 days. Bidwlll's
Cardinals landed Georgias Char
lev Trippi, the most widely pub
licized college star of the 1946 sea-
son, and George Halas signed Okla
homa's Bob Fenimore for the
Bears.
Big BuiIdup Last Year.
But Daley's bolt had more sting
because of the tremendous buildup
he received when he signed with
Bill Cox's Brooklyn team. The
former Minnesota All-America was
the No. 2 player on the list of ma
tionally prominent collegians sought
by the junior circuit. Organizers
of the new loop announced that
they were out to buy up talent at
any price, and Daley reportedly
got fat figure on his contract.
But fate was unkind to the Co.
pher star. He injured his leg
training for the Bear-All-Star
game at Chicago last August and
didn't get back in action until late
in the season. He played only
part of a game for Brooklyn. That
team, its home season completed,
then assigned his contract to Miami.
Daley Joined the Seahawks, but in
dicated that his first year would be
his last with the conference.
Daley today emphasized the ALL
America had no claim on him.
st have no contractual obllga-
tions to Miami" he told reporters.
Peculiarly, Daley was claimed for
the Steelers by Commissioner Bell
when he was part owner of the
Pittsburgh club. That was at the
end of the. 1914 season, which Bill
spent with the Fort Pierce (Fla.)
Navy eleven. He was All-America
fullback at Minnesota in 1912 ano
the following season played for Mich
igan while stationed there in the
Navy's Viz program. Autumn OF
1945 found him serving as assistant
atheletic officer of the 7th Fleet in
the Pacific.
Club owners late this morning still
were deadlocked over the 194I
schedule and it was agreed that
unless agreement was reached by

to Commissioner Bell, with his

Hogan, Winner Again.
Metz Is RebeIIious
By the Assoeioted Press

PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 27.-Par
Master Ben Hogan today appeared
bound for an even more successful
trip down the PGA tournament
trail this year than he enjoyed last
year.
The hitting little SHOEMAKER
from Hershey, Pa, yesterday cap
tured the Phoenix Open Golf Tour
nament for the second successive
year with a 72-hole 270, IA strokes
under par for the Phoenix Country
Club Course, a new tournament
record here.
|. AS the golfers prepared to leave
Phoenix for Tucson, Dick Metz OF
Arkansas City, Kans., announced
that he intends to take part in the
Tucson Open, from which he has
been barred by the PGA Tourna-
ment Committee.
The PGA committee, headed by
George Schneiter of Ogden, Utah,
was equally insistent that the links
star could not compete or at least
would be denied any share of the
prize money should he win.
Metz was suspended last week
from participation in the Phoenix
and Tucson Opens as a result OF an
alteration he had recently with

Grid Star Returning
To Alma Mater for
FuII-Ttime Berth
By the Assoe;o,ed Press

! CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va, Jan
27.-Bill Dudley, 1916 backfield star
of the Pittsburgh Steelers of the
National Professional League, today
quit professional football to become
backfield coach at the University of
Virginia, his alma mater.
The announcement of Dudley's
decision was made by Capt. Norton
G. Pritchett, director of atheletics
at Virginia.
Dudley will assume his new duties
at Virginia Immediately. His new
job is a full-time one. His actual
duties probably will not begin until
spring drills in March.
Quit Steelers Saturday.
It already was known that the
former Cavalier All-America half
back, who was known throughout
his collegiate career as the "Blue-
field Bullet" had conferred last
Saturday with Pritchett and Head
Coach Art Guepe.
The same day Dudley had notified
officials of the Pittsburgh club that
he desired to be traded to another
club, and Steeler Owner Art Rooney
already was awaiting bids from
other league members.
Dudley gave no reason for his
decision that he wouldn't play an
other year of football for the Pitts
burgh team. He had averaged so
minutes a game for the Steelers
last season, however, and had ex-
posed himself to plenty of punish
ment as the only real scoring threat
the Steelers had.
| Injured in Final Game.
Dudley was injured in the last
I3 minutes of the Steelers' final
game of the campaign against the
Philadelphia Eagles and had to be
carried from the field on stretcher.
He expressed the opinion that he
was "too small for professional
| football.
There has been backfield coach
ing vacancy here since Guepe moved
up from that job to head football
coach last year when Frank Muir
ray returned to Marquette Univer-
sity.

President Bill Veeck of the Cleve-
land Indians has submitted a diff
ferent deal for Clark Griffith's con-
sideration and has been promised a
decision by the Mats boss within a
few days" Although neither Griffith
nor Veeck would reveal the princi-
pals involved, the Cleveland presi-
dent admitted today upon arrival in
Cleveland that he left Griffith with
"a whale Of an offer" when huddling
with him yesterday at Orlando, Fla.
Refused by Griffith was a Veeck
offer to dispatch Third Baseman
Ken Keltner, Pitcher Steve Gromek
and Outfelders George Case and
Felix Mackiewicz to the Washing
ton Baseball Club for Outfielder
Stan Spence and either Pitcher
Roger Wolff or Pitcher Walter Mas
terson. Gromek, a 19-game winner
in 1945 who won five and lost Is
games with the Indians last season,
is a new figure in Griffith Veeck
d1SCuSSlOflS.
Griffith told Veeck yesterday at
Orlando that he was reluctant to
break up his outfield by parting with
Spence, but agreed to ponder Weeks
latest offer. Griffith said today he
would not trade Spence unless I
get an offer I can't turn down"
Griffith said he believed" he was
through talking with Veeck and
Cleveland sources quoted Veeck as
being discouraged over his visit to
Orlando, where the Mats president
is vacationing.
Principals many deal between the
Mats and Indians would be Spence
and Keltner. Cleveland admittedly
is anxious to land the Mats out
fielder and Washington officials are

eager to obtain Keltner, but thus
far Veeck hasn't tempted Griffith
with the other players he has Of
fered.
Cleveland officials feel Griffith is
holding off on trading Spence pend
ing further discussions with the New
York Yankees, who would relish get
ting Mickey Vernon, the Mats first
baseman. Last week, though, Grit
fifth professed there isn't enough
money in New York to buy Vernon"
Weeks flying trip to Orlando was
termed "last-minute effort as clos
ing deal with Washington by the
Cleveland president, who will head
for New York next week for trade
talk with the Yankees.

League BeIters Happy

By s4,e Associated Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-Charley
Keller, Rudy York, Dick Wakefield,
Mickey Vernon, Dom Maggie and
ether American League sluggers
were looking forward to the ls47
baseball season with a great deal
more relief today. All because Bob
Feller has announced he will con-
centrate more on trying to win 80
games than in seeking to better
his strikeout record.
"I set q strikeout record as my
goal last year, and naturally ! was
very happy to make it." said Feller
the other day. II do not intend to
concentrate so much on strikeouts
this coming season. But ! would
like to win 80 games. never have
won 80. But maybe this year,
think we have better ball club"
Fan Seven Times Apiece.
The aforementioned gentlemen
were among Feller's most consistent
victims last year, when Rapid Rob-
eM established his modern strike
out record of 348. Each went down
swinging seven times against the
Cleveland aces fast ball and sharp
breaking curve. Only Bob Savage,
a pitcher with the Philadelphia
Athletics, whitfield more times, eight.
Chuck Stevens of the st. Louis
Browns, Hal Trosky of the Chicago
White Sox, Pitcher Floyd Bevens Of
the New York Yankees and JEFF
Heath, who divided his playing be-
tween the Washington Senator'S and
the Browns, also were whitfield seven
times by Feller.
Feller's time victims included
George Stirnweiss and Nick Etten
of the Yankees, Bobby Doerr Of the
Boston Red Sox and Thurman
Tucker of the White Sox. Eleven
players, headed by Hank Greenberg.
fell victim to Feller's fast ball five
times.
In all Feller struck out 122 players
at least once, not counting the trio
of National Leaguers he whitfield in
the All-Star game. Not single
regular performer was able to get
by Feller without striking out at
least once.
Chisox Easiest Prey.
The White Sox were Feller's
easiest prey, 66 of the Pale Hose
missing the third strike In eight
games. The Tigers were the toughest
| for Feller to fan, only 81 strolling
back to the bench for that long
drink of water.
Among the individual batsmen,
Ted Williams of the Red Sox, George
Kell of the Tigers and Vernon
(Junior) Stephens of the Browns
proved the most troublesome to Bob.
Each whitfield only once.
Williams, in particular, was a
nemesis to Bob. He faced Feller 26
times, walked four times, whitfield
once and banged out nine safeties in
% official times at bat for 400
batting mark. In addition Williams
belted Bob for three doubles, triple
and two homerS,

clared ineligible by Judge w. G..
Bramham will take their cases to

Judge Bramham said Saturday he
had placed the following on base

post-season series between Houma,
La. and Abbeville La:
Playing Manager Paul Fugit,
Third Raseman Alvin w. Kaiser,
Centerfielder Leonard Pecou and
ace hurler w. G. Thomas, all OF the
Houma team, and Don Vetorel OF
the Abbeville club.
Vetorel said at his Georgetown
(Ill.) home he was ready ito fight
this to the finish because never
have gannbled at home or away from
home"
Admits Mixing With Gamblers.
Pecou, at his home here, said that
whereas he had admitted having
bet on race horses and having "hob-
nobbed with gamblers" he did not
feel he should be barred for life"
and would appeal to Chandler Tor
reinstatement.
Kaiser, also at home here, said he
had not decided what course he
would follow pending receipt OF Of
fetal word from Bramham.
IT wrote him and told all I know
about it," Kaiser said, "and now
am waiting to hear from him."
Fugit could not be reached at
his Fayetteville (Ark0 home nor
could Thomas be contacted at
Houma, where he works.
Meanwhile the league watched to
see what other heads would roll,
for Judge Bramham said his action
was not complete and he was turn
ing the case over to George Traut-
man, incoming president Of the
National Association (minor leagues)
for such action as he saw f1t.
Other Heads May Fall.
"There are other parties con-
nected with the Evangeline League

advised of Bramham's action, COM

"We can take care Of the ball
players, but we can't reach the
gamblers. Most gamblers have a

He blamed Louisiana bookies for
creating the Evangeline League
situation and said he felt sure or
ganized baseball would help obtain
passage of q bill before Congress to
make it illegal for a gambler to

Greenberg, the American League
home run king, who was sold by
Detroit to the Pittsburgh Pirates
January 1S, revealed in a radio
broadcast last night that he had
applied for an executive job with
the Tigers.
The latest revelation OF the
Greenberg case, which has stirred
the interest of fans all over the

reports that Greenberg had ex-
pressed desire to play for the New
York Yankees in 1947.
1t has been intimated that this
statement attributed to the home
run slugger had so "angered and
hurt" Tiger Owner Walter o. Briggs,
that ne ordered Greenberg's inlme-
diate sale.
Makes Letter Public.
As a guest on the "We the Peo-
pie" radio program over the Colum-
bia broadcasting system, Greenberg
made public letter he had written
to Briggs after he had learned that
the job of general manager had been
vacated by George Trautman.
Greenberg read the letter on the
air as follows:
"As you know have spent my en-
tire playing career with the Detroit
Baseball Club and proudly feel that
I have helped contribute to it's sue
cess. Since plan to retire from the
active playing ranks in the near fu-
