Indians to Check
Heart Often
By the Associated Press

CLEVELAND, Feb. 3.-Lanky
Russ Christopher can pitch one
more season for the Cleveland
Indians, but he'll have to take it
easy because of a bad heart, the
Tribe management says.
For Christopher, the world
champions said, that will mean:
Pitching only a few innings in
any one game; skipping spring
training; physical checkups every
six weeks by specialists hired by
the club; no violent exercise"
This was the second decision by
President Bill Veeck of the In
dians to allow one of his pitchers
to stay with the team on the
basis Of a medical examination.
Last week end he signed Don
Black after a specialist told him
Black had completely recovered
from serious brain injury.
The decision to keep Christo-
pher, who already has signed his
1949 contract, was made after the
Indians received a medical report
from DR.. Myron Prinzmetal Of
Los Angeles. Christopher Is a
native of Port Richmond, Calf.

At the same time, Bennigsen

Parker joined the Cardinals in

Parker Is IS years old.
Handler, 40, joined the Cardinals
in 1890, a top-fiight guard from

nicknamed Swish" did just that to
eight set shots and Ray Corley, who

scorer of the past two seasons, led
the Tigers with IA points and with
George Sella, one of Princeton's star

five.
One factor that impressed the
press-radio row inhabitants was the
gentlemanly behavior Of Coach
Cappy Cappon and the Princeton
team. Cappon never changed his
expression during the game, did
no coaching from the bench, and
neither Cappon nor his players on
the bench made a single outcry.

taking their clippings too seriously?
Selecting an Ai-District COL

Ray Adler, a Sleepy-eyed, lumber
ing basket ball giant from Brook
lyn, and Johnny Brown, a workman
like, but usually inconspicuous per-
former who scored only SO points all
last season, are the main reasons
why George Washington and
Georgetown own their first double
triumph in three double e-headers-
two this year and one last.
Adler was not G. WIS high scorer,
but he was their top performer as
the Colonials finished fast to defeat
the University of Virginia, $3.50. at
the National Guard Armory last
night. Brown was Georgetown S
clutch point-maker and their top
man with "a points as the Hoyas
