'Bucs With Greenberq
To Have Majors Two
|Top Homer Hihers
BY the Assoeioted Press

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 2O.-The
most dangerous club in the major
leagues this year may well be the
lowly seventh-place Pittsburgh Pi-
rates, owners of the two 1916 home
run kings.
The Pirates already had the Ma
tional Leagues home run champion
in rookie outf1elder Ralph Kiner,
who slugged out % circuit blows.
The purchase of Hank Greenberg
from Detroit-who topped American
League swatters with 44-gives the
Buccos a one-two punch that bodies
no good for rivals.
What's more, the Pittsburgh out
field also has Jim Russell, making
it the hardest-nitting fielders' crew
seen here since the 1927 days of the
two Waners and Woody Jensen.
Purchase of the 36-year-old
Greenberg from the Tgers-the
price was understood to be $50, 1000
gives the Pirates one of the games
biggest drawing cards. The seven
other American League clubs waived
all rights to Greenberg. ..-
No salary trouble was anticipated
with the first baseman-outfielder
who repeatedly received $4,000 from
the Tigers last season and planned
to ask $4,000 this year.
Roy Hamey, Pirate general mana
ger, asked if the Pirates had any
plans to move the left field score
board in Forbes Field to benefit
the home run slugger, replied: mo
not this season, at least"
The left-field line distance at
Forbes Field is 365 feet compared
with $40 at Briggs Stadium in De-
troit where Greenberg hammered
out most of his 311 home runs in
eight seasons.

Buourus and Mrs. FiIchock Back
In Capital, Silent on Rumors
By Lewis F. Atchison

Steve Bagarus and Mrs. Frank
Filchock both were back in Wash
ington today, but neither would
confirm rumors that they will be
married after Mrs. Filchock obtains
a divorce.
Mrs. Filchock, a comely brunette
who was Anna Merritt before her
marriage to the suspended New
York Giants quarterback, confirmed
the report that she intends to seek
divorce. But she has not filed
suit, she said, and does not know
when or where the papers would
be filed.
Beyond that I don't have any
future plans concerning anything"
she said.
Mrs. Filchock said she would ask
for custody of the couples two
young children but would not ask
for any financial settlement OF
alimony.
Stories "New" to Her.
Published stories linking her name
with Bagarus, who only last Satur-
day was traded by the. Redskins to
the Los Angeles Rams, were "all
very new to me-" she said. She said
she had seen Bagarus on the West
Coast last week, however. She re-
turned East by plane while Steve
made the trip by auto.
Bagarus, after talking with Mrs
Filchock by telephone this morning
concurred in her statement that
their future plans we're indefinite.
Bagarus checked in at down.
town hotel, while Mrs. Filchock went
to the home of her mother at 214C
N street NV.
Filchock, who has been caring fol
the children at his apartment at
2619 Forty second street NV, since
his wife's departure, would not COM
ment on the situation. He professeo
mild interest in the news that Mrs
Filchock and Bagarus were in the
city.
!. Bagarus expects to go to Baltimore
tomorrow to confer with officials OF
the Baltimore Bullets, professional
basket bail club, with which he
signed before suddenly departing fol
the West Coast earlier this month
Steve said he would finish out the
campaign with the Bullets, who are
leading the American Basket Ball
League.
Bagarus said he thought he would
like to play football for the Los
Angeles Rams, although he had not
talked with General Manager Chill
Walsh Of that club.
Minimizes His Injury.
"He probably doesn't know where
I am," Steve said, But guess he'll
get in touch with me in few days. u
The player said he did not think
the leg injury he incurred last year
before the start of regular league
play would bother him with the

sit was only a groin injury-it
only bothered me before games,
he said.
Bagarus said he was we'll satisfied
with his treatment by the Redskins
and left the club with no hard feel

Marshall had treated him we'll and
that he was leaving the team on
the best of terms with him.

Road Getting Rougher
For College Quints;
II More ToppIed
By the A.seeioisd Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-The road
gets rocker and rocker for the col
lege basket ball powers playing the
usual tough schedules and, although
there still are a number of major
fives boasting unblemished records,
the chances are slim that they'll
be flying the unconquered pennant
come tournament time.
With most of the ranking Quin-
tets playing Is and 80 game sched-
ules, and a majority of the con-
tests against foes of equal or near
equal caliber, it just takes little
miss to mean the difference between
victory and defeat.
For instance, one basket was the
difference between a perfect slate
and a 14-1 won and lost record for
powerful Texas. The Longhorns'
only setback this season came at
the hands of Oklahoma A.. & NJ,
40-39.. The Aggies, too, would have
made a clean sweep Of their first
II games had they not bowed to
Long Island University by one point
:,ast month. Since then, they drop
Sed another game, to st. Louis Uni
versity.,
Eleven Teams TOppled.
In all, II teams, including two
ranking quintets, toppled from the
unbeaten list last week, leaving only
13 with clean states. OF these only
seven are of top-fight caliber. They
are Seton Hall OF New Jersey, $50:
Marshall CIV. Va), 14-0; Duquesne
(Pa.), lilo; Eastern Kentucky, 11-0;
Alabama, 100; West Virginia, TO,
and Army, 40. The other unbeaten
teams include Kirksville (Mo)
Teachers, 1870; Wheaton Ull0, 80;
Mankato (Minn.) Teachers, 90;
Washington & Jefferson (Pa) TO;
Trinity Comm, TO, and Slippery
Rock Pa) Teachers, SO.
Those which got knocked off for
the first time were headed by Wash
ington of Seattle, winner of its first
IL games, and Rhode Island State,
which had won nine. Washington
was turned back twice by Washing
ton State in Pacific Coast Confer
epce games, SLAB and 1854, while
the Rams were upset Saturday night
by st. Joseph's of Philadelphia,
69-59.
Others Get First LickingS.
The other clubs to taste their first
licking of the season included La
fayette, Lawrence (Mich) Tech,
Monmouth Qll), Capital, Heidel-
berg, Washington & Lee, Bucknel,
Ursinus and Dubuque.
The New York and New England
sections suffered the worst. Follow
ing on the heels of North Cardinals
upset of strong New York Univer-
sity earlier in the week, five of the
sectors best clubs went down to
defeat. Cornell, counted On to play
an important role in the Eastern
intercollegiate race, was humbled by
a weak Yale five, Syracuse bowed to
Temple, Colgate lost to Army, Can
isius was dumped by Western Ken
lucky, Manhattan was licked by
Syracuse and Villanova, and Rhode
Island was whacked by st. Joe.
Cornell's defeat left Columbia and
Princeton tied for the lead in the
Ivy League with two victories apiece.
The Big Red is tied for third place
with Penn at 2-1.

THESE ARE DAYS WHEN
DECISIONS MUST BE MADE

TO say that the government of
the. United States is making some
of the gravest decisions in its his
tory in the field Of foreign policy,
is to repeat the obvious. The Presi-
dents speech of March IL was simp-
ly one more momentous step along
q road whose end no one can fore
see. Mr.. Truman put into somber
words a set Of principles which,
whether one likes them or not, are
clear, basic and unequivocal. There
will be changes in details-as, for
instance, in how much money will
be appropriated for the aid of
Greece, Turkey or other nations.
But il seems certain that after the
tumult and the shouting die, the
broad principles will remain.
Il is worth nothing that Senator
Vandenberg, the principal Repub-
hcan congressional authority on
foreign affairs, approved the Presi-
dents declaration.
It is plain that we are gradually
assuming the position in the world
which was once held by Great
Britain. England emerged from the
first war strong and rich, and re-
gained her traditional role as a world
power on which the sun never set.
A victorious and proud France was
her main ally in Europe. The emf
Of the second war saw an incredible
England is weak and
hungry, relying on American dol
lars for her subsistence, and the
greatest Empire the modern world
has known is in the weary process
of disintegration And little is left
of the old France.
