A month ago, Mack's Athletics

Many things have happened in

much more than a piece of the
ball on his bat to ride it out of
the park.
He raped some drives out OF
the Reds training grounds at
Tampa this spring which were
really eye-f1lling. Unless I'm
badly fooled, I think Kluszewski
will be right up there with the best
of the National League hitters
this year.
Kluszewski is so big and power
full that he doesn't have to pull
the ball to give it a long ride. He
can punch a drive to left center
which will soar out of almost any
ball park. AS a matter of fact,
the longest drives I saw him hit
this spring went to the left of
center. This is unusual, of course,
for a left-handed batter.

With these worries on his mind,
Mack embarked on the anniver-

which likely never will be

Hash Night Lowers
Billy Ke||y's Record
In Hartford Handicap
By Lewis F. Atchison
Sior Stoff Correspondent

HAVRE DE GRACE, April 13.-
Some older heads thought the six
furlong Hartford Handicap might
be too short for Hash Night here
yesterday. Hash, his sire, was a
router, they pointed out, and there
were some mighty fast horses in
the race. Then, too. Johnny Gill
bert, who rode the 5-year-old,
was two pounds over the ia as
signed.
Magnet, who ran the fastest six
furlongs ever witnessed on a
Maryland track at Laurel 10 days
ago, and Wine List, with Ted At
kinson in the saddle, commanded
a lot of respect. But the colors
that crossed the finish line first
were the blue and gold of the
Palatine Stable, worn by Gilbert.
Hash Nights time of I'LL fiat es-
tablished a new record for the
race, beating tn 1:111s made by
Billy Kelly in 1921 when he won
the Hartford for the second
straight time with Jockey Jimmy
Butwell up.
A couple Of railbirds who had
moved to an advantageous spot at
the head of the stretch to watch
Atkinson's whip technique, saw
him give the Greentree colt a cou-
pie of resounding whacks and
then give up. For Ted knew he
couldn't win. Ray Shufelt on
Magnet had other ideas, taking
over the lead as the seven-horse
field moved into the stretch. But
Gilbert. even though he had to
take Hash Night to the outside
for racing room, found enough run
in him to make up the lost ground
and come pounding home two
lengths in front for an $11.80 mu-
tuel.
1t was Gilbert's second winner
Of the day as he also had the
mount on the 2-year-old Sailing
High in the second race, which
paid $7.20. Sailing High and
Happy Count, a $3.50 pay-off in
the opener. were worth $188.80 in
the daily double.

Football TeIevision
To Be Discussed at
Meeting in Chicago
BY the AsSo<iotsd Press

CHICAGO, April l3.-The Big
Ten. talking it over with Notre
Dame. Pittsburgh. Nebraska and
Marquette. will try to Ak foot
ball television policy this week
end.
The Saturday Sunday session
primarily is huddle of Big Ten
athletic directors. but representa-
tives of the other four schools
were invited to join the forum on
the vexing video subject. All
four outside schools have more or
less football traffic with the Big
Ten.
The National Collegiate Ath-
letic Association marked time on
the subject at its annual meeting
in New York last January, but
instructed members to limit tele-
vision commitments to one year.
This week ends meeting may
accomplish considerable spade
work for possible NCAA action on
television at It's 1851 convention
in Dallas next January.
Hamilton to Attend.
At least two Of the three men,
Der active survey" committee ap-
pointed yesterday by Hugh Will
lett, NCAA president. to study all
phases of television are expected
to attend the meeting here. They
are Chairman Tom Hamilton,
who also will represent Pittsburgh
where he is athletic director, and
Willis o. Hunter. Southern Cali
fornia athletic director.
The third member is Ralph
Furey. Columbia University ath-
letic director. This committee
was proposed at the New York
NCAA convention to dig up such
facts as the effect of television on
athletic gate receipts and the po-
tential coverage of television as
reflected by the number of tele-
vision sets and servicing cables
now in operation.
All except three Big Ten schools
Purdue, Iowa and Indiana
televised football last year and
those three now have facilities
available to do so next fall.
Notre Dame regularly has tele-
yised on a network basis. The
Dumont network announced yes
terday it has signed a contract
with the South Bend school to
telecast exclusively all of its 1850
home games. The home schedule
includes North Carolina, Septem-
Der 80: Purdue, October 7; Michi-
gan State, October %; Navy at
Cleveland. November 4, and Pitts
burgh, November IL.
May Plans Restrictions.
College leaders, we'll aware that
television Is here to stay, want to
try to figure out how much to
charge uniformly for telecast
rights and what territorial re-
strictions may be necessary.
The discussions here will con-
Germ both live" television of
games and post-game showing of
movies. The group also may set
policy for televising of sports
other than football.
