Sixth Man Arrested
AS Basketball 'fixer'
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK. April 28.-Another
alleged "fixer" was arrested today,
charged with bribing five members
of the City College basketball
team.
Detectives picked up Eli Klu-
kofsky, Alias Eli Kaye, 20. outside
a Miami. Fla0 night club on a
warrant charging him specifi-
cally with "bribing participants in
amateur basketball contests"
Klukofsky's arrest brought to
six the number of flxers arrested
since the scandal first broke.
District Attorney Frank Hogan
said Klukofsky worked through
Norman Mayer, a City College
player. The other players in
volved were Ed Roman, Al Roth,
Erwin Dambrot and Herb Cohen.
Three games were to be fixed,
Hogan said, in the standard man
ner of shaving points" This is
the system whereby the team in
tentionally misses baskets in order
to keep the score close.
In one Of the games-City Col
|lege-Southern Methodist-on De-
Icember s, 1949, Hogan said there
was no payoff because the
Southern Methodist team was $50
inept that the City College players
couldn't possibly keep the winning
differential close without sitting
on the floor" City won. 67-53.

Special Dispe.eh to The s,er

BOWIE, Md, April 28.-Brook-
meade Stables Why Not Now
scored a half-length victory over
King Ranch's On the Mark in
the $4,000 Southern Maryland
Handicap here today. The win
ner's stablemate, War King, was
third, three-quarters of a length
farther back. It was the first
stakes victory Of his career for
the son Of Menow-Astraea.
In duplicating the victory he
scored over On the Mark at Ja-
maica nearly two weeks ago, Why
Not Now ran the mile and q six
teenth in 1:47 with Ronnie Nash
in the irons. The entry was
backed down to 7-to-10 favorit-
ism by the crowd of 1870 fans
who bet a total of $807,393 for
the day.
Sylvester Labrot's Arcave fin
ished fourth after unsuccessfully
attempting a new tactic of setting
the pace. Usually a slow starter,
Arcave beat only Grandview Sta
ble's Balan in the f1ve-horse field.
There was no third-place wager
ing.
Arcave went to the front at the
first turn and held the lead until
the field reached the stretch. The
Brookmeade pair, second and
third on the backstretch, caught
the leader approximately a six
teenth Of a mile from the finish.
On The Mark made a good try
for the money after slipping
through on the rail. but Nash
kept Why Not Now going long
enough to win. The victory was
worth $10.900 to Brookmeade, the
leading money-winning stable Of
the Nation last year.
A daily double combination of
8-12, Shine On, an $3.50 for 50
mutuel In the first race. and Battle
Cry, an $500 winning ticket in
the second, resulted in $568
daily double pay-off. 1t was the
juiciest double of the meeting.
Battle Cry also gave Jockey Willie

Canadian Pro Football Raids
On NFL Expected to Continue

NIL operates. Just how they Cal
successfully outbid the Unite,
States pro teams is revealed b.
the sports editor of the Edmonton
Journal. He advises the Chicago
Daily News:
"Fhe situation is pretty much
like this: Although most players
are on a salary basis, they aren't
tied down to the same extent as
in out-and-out professional cir
cults. Most of them hold down
jobs in addition to playing foot
ball.
"The type Of players the clubs
are locking for are those willing
to establish themselves in steady
employment when their playing
days are over. This is particularly
so in Edmonton. which is in the
center Of an immense oil develop
ment.
Depend on Contributions.
Apart from gate receipts, which
couldn't take care of the overhead
to operate, income is secured
mostly from membership contri-
buttons to Touchdown and Quar-
terback Clubs. from program ad-
Ivertising and from concession rev.
Ienue at the parks.
Running clubs in Western
Canada is pretty much a commu-
nifty venture, with the cost of each
Iclub in the neighborhood of $780,
900 to $125, 900.
Edmonton and Calgary have
the biggest parks, each being able
to accommodate at least $4,000.
Including standing room. Winni-
peg, the biggest city, has the poor
est facilities, a bandbox enclosure
Into which no more than $500 can
be squeezed. Regina can accom-
modate $4,000.
Season ticket sales are good in
jail cities, but rugged weather
conditions bulk large in the sue
cess or otherwise Of the league.
Nobody in the United States
PRO circuit needs worry a great
deal about losing players to the
Western Canada league unless the
players have a grievance and want
to make a move. It's this type
the Canadian promoters are an
Cling for as they seek to fill their
quota of seven imports per team. +"

Of prominent American football
figures. Only. recently, two Los
Angeles stars, Dick Hoerner and
Tom Fears, were reported study
ing high-salary, year-'round job
offers. So was Tony Canadeo of
Green Bay.
Talk of Legal Action.
The possibility of legal action
to balk the raiders" have been
voiced by Ray Benningsen, pres
ident of the Cardinals. This club
holds an option on the services of
Shaw, a crack end. In the event
he plays with the Calgary Rough
Riders, the Cardinals may seek
an injunction and damages be-
fore q Canadian jurist.
BenningSen made the further
revelation that Shaw was offered
twice as much money by the Ca
madam interests as the Cards were
in a position to pay. And you
can say we were paying Shaw
handsomely" Benningsen added.
