Sports Promoters To Clean House
M Measure Introduced To
Make Bribery OF Players
Federal Offense

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10 - Up -
FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover said
Monday that promoters and ath-
letes have a Sacred duty" to
keep sports clean and Rep. Herbert
D-La) introduced a measure to
make bribery of players or officials
a federal offense.
Hoover expressed the view it is
up to the promoters and perform
ers to '"Clean house and keep it
clean" themselves. He told an in
terviewer that legislation Should
be a matter of last resort and
should be enacted only if absolute
ly necessary
Herbert said in a statement that
Sports is big business and the
public must be protected from the
fixers, the chiselers and the graft
ers." His measure would provide
a maximum penalty of ten years in
prison and $40, 900 fine for bribery
OF attempted bribery.
1t was introduced, he said, as a
result of the scandal. involving the
conviction of Alvin Paris, of New
York, for attempting to rig the Ma
tional Football Leagues champion
ship playoff. League commission
er Bert Bell announced last week
end the Professional group would
seek federal, state and local legls-
1ation.
Hoover asserted that keeping
sports clean and above the ugly
rumors Of fixes and control by
gamblers is an absolute necessity"
and added:
"Clean sports is one Of the fine
and effective means of developing
good citizenship, particularly upon
the part of our youth.
1.-The recent exposure Of attempt
ed dishonesty in the field of pro-
fessional football and the sight OF
the cum of gamblers that have
frequented all professional sports
contests, even practicing their
activities in the very arenas where
the contests are in progress, has
stunned the fair play conscience OF
the great body of the American
public.
1.-The average American, partic-
ularly the youth, takes his sports
seriously and wants them clean
and uncontaminated."
The FBI director said Definite
and determined effort should be
made by Those directly respon-
sible for the development of sport
ing events, and the participants OF
athletic contests, to keep sports
above reproache." And he added:
They will be the first to suffer

In some instances, Father Cava-
naugh said, he suspected the re
formers protest too much, that
their zeal may be an excuse for
their own negligence in reforming
Themselves"
The American people, who wor-
ship a winner SO long as he wins
honestly according to the rules" he
continued, "'are not easily misled
by such accusations.
"x x x we at Notre Dame make
no apologies about wanting winners.
We want our students to go out

and in the much more important
battles of life. We shall always

IN THE SPORTS PAN
BY Roy Cook

We have been asked to explain the position of the
club owners of the Wilmington Pirates on the possible
ty of the local team being placed in the Tri-State
league.
We have often talked with representatives of the
local team and at all times they appeared to be in
favor of Wilmington advancing into the Class B circuit.
They have held conferences with representatives of the
Tri-State loop on several occasions, the most recent
was last Saturday night, but no definite results have
been reached.
The Pirate owners are anxious to give wilmington
the best possible type of baseball, of this We are sure.
But they also have many things to iron out before
even thinking of entering a higher class league.
We were told yesterday afternoon that they, the
local owners, are not seeking to keep a higher class
league from obtaining a franchise here, but are only
interested in giving the Port City a wei! rounded base
ball program. One of the officials of the league, who
did not want to be quoted said, IF any person or group
Of persons want to take over the franchise and operate
aCass B team here, we are willing to sell right now.
Ad ne went on to explain that the operation OF a Class
b team could not be done here due to the TACT OF the
added expenses of travelling and hotel bills Tor the
players.
| would like to make one thing clear to the readers
OF this column, l am not opposed to a higher class
league in Wilmington, but l share the opinion OF the
Plfate owners, wilmington will not support a Class
Bteam."
The Wilmington owners seemed to be under the
impression that many of the local fans were OF the
opinion that they, the Buccanneer owners, were
opposed to getting into a higher CHS league. was
asked to please point out that the owners are STRIVING

NE best possible.
The meeting here Saturday night with President
Mewellyn and Wilmington owners did not even come
q~se to offering a solution to the question Wnat
League will Wilmington be in this season?
The Tri-State Prexy in his wire to local OFFICIALS
saa he had a proposition to offer them and during the
ourse of the meeting, a Pirate spokesman said, nothing
was offered by the Tri-State. They simply wanted TO
ahOw If Wilmington was interested in entering the
circuit.
We reported yesterday morning in this column that
t nheSelyn said Wilmington was not ready to DO business He1
ID is what the Tri-State Mogul told us. But, VIII
ffa.ng1on owners said they were ready to listen TO any
oassssSlole proposition offered, but added that no suen
