Once Managed Dodgers
By the Associofed Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 7.-Bill Dah-
len, 70, for many years an out
standing National League short
stop and later manager of the
Dodgers, will be buried here today.
Dahlen, a contemporary of the
late John j. McGraw and Christy
Mathewson. died Tuesday at Kings
County Hospital.
Dahlen was a member of Brook
lyn's pennant-winning teams of
1899 and 1900. He was a Brook
lyn shortstop until 1904, then
joined the Giants and played on
the 1905 team which won the
World Series. Later he played
with the Braves before becoming
manager of the Dodgers in 1909.
Dahlen broke into professional
baseball with the Cobleskill club
of the New York State League in
1890 and played for Pop Anson' S
Colts in Chicago before moving to
Brooklyn. He was a scout for the
Giants for many years.

Presidential CupRivoIs Due
To Arrive Here Tomorrow

The Georgia and Texas A. and
M. football squads which meet
Saturday in the first Presidential
Cup game are to arrive in Wash
ington tomorrow in time for a
final tune-up at Byrd Stadium at
the University of Maryland, where
the game will be played.
Georgia's Bulldogs will be first
on the scene, arriving by train at
$50 am. from Athens, Ga. The
Texas Aggies are scheduled to fly
in, arriving at National Airport
at 2:30 pm. The Aggies are ex-
pected to go directly to the sta
dium while the Georgia squad will
work out earlier.
Four Officials Named.
Meanwhile, Dave Herman, man
aging director of the game, an
nounced the appointment of four
officials to handle the game. The
referee will be Fred Roster of
Louisville University. Charles
Hawn of Texas will serve as UNI
pire. Jim Higgins of Southern
Methodist field judge and
Charlie Wood of Georgia Tech
as head linesman.
Word from Texas is that the
Aggies readily accepted the Presi-
Dental Cup game invitation as o
reward for an excellent season
in Coach Harry Stiteler's third
year as head coach.
Their record of six victories and
four defeats against rugged oppo-
sition snapped a string of dismal
seasons and this is the first Aggie
team that is actually a Stiteler
production. In his first two years
at his alma mater he inherited
little material from the Homer
Norton regime.
The Aggies started out by
humping Nevada, 1918, but had
to work harder the next week be-
fore beating Texas Tech, 34-13.
Nearly Beat Oklahoma.
For the first time since their
Cotton Bowl team Of 1914. the
Aggies got national attention the
following week when Oklahoma s
unbeaten team had to come from
behind in the last minute of play
to win, 1923.
A VMI team that defeated Will
liam and Mary and Georgia Tech
in a winning season was routed
$40, by the Aggies the next week
The Aggies scored four times in
the last period to beat Texas
Christian late in October, 1923, a
typical Southwest Conference
score.
The Baylor game was the Aggies
only real disappointment of the
year. Bob Smith, third among
the Nations running backs, raced
Sc yards for a touchdown against
Baylor On the first play and the
Aggies thought it was going to be
easy. But Baylor came back to
win 27-20.
1nasmuch as Arkansas beat
Baylor and Baylor beat the Ag-
gies. the Razorbacks were solid
| favorites over the Aggies the fol-
lowing week. But again compare
tive scores meant nothing. The
Texans won, 42-13.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla, Dec. 7.
The minor leagues today killed

The 81 minor baseball leagues

This action followed a two-year

There was practically no discus

The two major leagues still have
to approve the action at their

will be a mere formality.
Meanwhile, the harried minor

According to Trautman, the
