Grid Comeback

New York, OF. 28-(AP)-
There's talk around New York
University that the Violets may
be plotting a football comeback.
Such speculation was given
momentum yesterday with thu
appointment of John E. (Bing)
Miller, former NYU tackle, as
graduate manager of athletics.
Miller's appointment was an
nounced by Prof. John F. Sui
livan, the new chairman Of the
university board of athletic con-
troll.
There was no confirmation
from official quarters that N.Y.
planned a new emphasis on foot
ball but the activity in the front
office has created some buzzing.
NYU, with 28-man squad uff-
der Coach Hook Mylin, has won
only one of four starts this year.
The Violets have dropped into
the small-time class after once
being a power under such
coaches as Chick Meehan and
DR.. Nal Stevens.
Miller formerly coached at
Manhattan College, Habart and
Long Island University but has
been out of football for the last
ten years.

new college football battery is
threatening to erase the all-time
sky-writing records set last year
by Mississippi's Charlie Conerly

The present duo belongs to un-

Latest figures compiled by the
National Collegiate Athletic

caught % passes in five games
for total of 1874 yards.
This, the bureau says, makes
the sure-fingered Nevadan the

Beasley replaced John O'Quinr

Beasley's whip-armed partner,
Heath, has IS pass compilations

gain of 1918 yards.
With the season little more
than half gone, the Nevadans
have a chance to match the re.
markable feats which Conerly

Boston Braves Alvin Dark Is
National Loop Rookie OF The Year

! Al played In Is games for the
Braves in '46, but that did not
disqualify him for rookie honors
in '48.
The Sill. 185-pound youngster,
in his first full season in pro-
fessional baseball, batted 1903
for the Brewers, led the circuit
in doubles and total base hits,
and was hailed as the top A.A.
rookie.
When Dark reported to the
Braves in Bradenton, Fla, last
spring, he Immediately caught
the eye of manager Billy South
worth, and was informed the
shortstop berth was his if he
could hold it.
The responsibility proved too
much for the kid at first. His
hitting fell off and his fielding
suffered, as result. Two weeks
after the opening of the regular
campaign, the ex-Marine found
himself on the bench while
Sibby Sisti taking over the regu-
lar shortstop duties.
An injury to Sisti gave Dark
} another chance. Although Sisti
soon recovered, Dark never a.
gain gave him another opportun
J ity to return to the shortstop
| post. Tutored considerably by
Eddie Stanky, his keystone part
, ner, Dark soon began to show

!: New York, Oct. 28A(AP)-Al-
vim Dark, brilliant young short
stop Of the Boston Braves, was
voted today the National League
rookie of the year.
It was a virtual landslide for
the 25-year-old native Of Lake
Charles, La. In a nationwide
poll conducted by the Associated
Press. Dark romped in as the
No. / freshman Of 1948 with 100
out of a possible 220 votes.
Only four other players recel-
we'd consideration from the base
ball experts. Richie Ashburn,
Flashy Philadelphia outfielder,
was a poor second with 81 votes
Pitcher Robin Roberts and Fly
chaser Johnny Blatnik, team
mates Of Ashburn, each got one
vote as did outfielder Hank
Sauer of the Cincinnati Reds.
Dark gained the distinction
by his fine batting his skill in
the field, his speed afoot and
his colorful all-around play. In
1887 games, the former ALA
round athlete at Louisiana State
University batted 1922 to finish
third among the regulars.
It was the second time in his
brief career that Dark has been
acclaimed as the No. l fresh
man of his league. Signed by
the Braves in the summer o1

figure, Dark was sent to the Mil
