Ciemniecki SideIined
GWU 10 Start Safer
Against West Virginia

John Skinny Safer, a 5-foot-
2. 165-pound freshman from Fair
fax High, will get a starting as
signment at left halfback on the
George Washington football team
tomorrow when it plays West Vir-
ginia in the Mountaineers' home
coming game at Morgantown.
Safer will replace the injured
Len Ciemniecki. the freshman
flash of the early season, who will
be out of action because of a knee
injury.
Safer doesn't have Ciemniecki's
speed-Len is the fastest boy on
the squad-but he has talent. He
scored on a 53-yard run the first
time he had his hands on the ball
in varsity competition in the
opening game at North Carolina
State. Last week he tried passing
for the first time and completed
three for three, one for touch
down.
The ColonialS are as much as
three-touchdown underdogs to the
Mountaineers who scored a major
upset last week with their 1910
triumph over Pittsburgh, and in
juries have complicated their
plans. Being left behind in addi-
ton to Ciemniecki are Guard
Frank Continetti, a veteran regu-
lar of the defensive line, and Bill
Weaver, a No. sub in the de-
fensive backfield.
Johnny Prach, a 200-pound
utility lineman. and Dick Drake.
another 200-pounder who gen.
orally is a starter on offense. will
take turns filing in for Conti-I
netti.
The Colonials leave by bus early
this afternoon for the West Vir-
ginia game, and will stay over
night at Uniontwon. Pa. Making
an out-of-town trip for the first
time with the ColonialS will be
Halfback Dick Phillips and Tackle
Oscar Hinshaw, both freshmen.
Also added to the travelling roster
was Guard Ed KirSchner, another
freshman, who previously had one
out-of town jaunt to North Caro-
lima State.

Yankees Are Aroused
By Proposed Rule on
Inter|eague Waivers
BY the Associated Press

| NEW YORK, Oct. 31.-The
world champion Yankees were up
in arms today at what they termed
a legislative attempt to curb their
winning habits.
isn't it about time it became
clear that pennants are won on a
ball ~f1eld?" George M. Weiss,
Yankee general manager, asked
in commenting on a proposed new
interleague waiver rule.
Weiss got his dander up because
he considers the new rule is aimed
at the Yankees. Players obtained
from the National League have
helped New York win four straight
pennants and four straight World
Series.
Among them were hard hitting
Johnny Mize in 1919; Johnny
Hopp, another first baseman. in
1850, and two pitchers. Johnny
Sain in 1851 and Ewell Blackwell
this year.
Vote Due in December.
The new rule. drawn up by the
Major-Minor Executive Council
here Wednesday, provides that all
clubs in both major leagues must
waive on a player before he can
be- sold to a club in the other
league after July 81. It will be
voted on at the winter baseball
meetings in Phoenix in December.
Under the current rule a player
needs only to be waived by the
clubs in his own circuit. Then he
can be sold to the highest bidder
in the other league.
"Once again the Yankees have
been cast in a bad light" Weiss
asserted. despite the fact the
Yankees have never obtained q
ballplayer by going behind or be-
yond the rules of baseball"
Passed Up Scarborough.
Weiss pointed out in state
ment the Cleveland Indians, who
finished second by two games to
the Yankees in the 1852 race,
passed up Pitcher Ray Scarbor-
ough of the Red Sox when waivers
were asked on him by the Sox.
scarborough came to the YAM
KEGS after every other club in the
American League waived on him, y
Weiss said. scarborough won five
games for the Yankees. Were
these five victories transferred to
the Indians, Cleveland might have
been champion"
Not only that, Weiss pointed
out, but the Yankees obtained
Blackwell from Cincinnati this
year by outbidding Cleveland as
well as other clubs.
Blackwell pitched in five games
for the Yankees" Weiss said,
HE hurled a total of Is innings
and contributed one victory to
our pennant triumph. I
Indians Purchased Three.
ION the other hand Cleveland
purchased three players who had
been waived out of the National
League, George Strickland, short
stop: Wally Westlake, outflelder.
and Ted Wilks. relief pitcher.
Strickland played in 81 games
and was Cleveland's regular short
stop down the stretch. Westlake
played in 80 games. Wilkes re-
lieved in six games. That is q
total Of 81 games against Is in
nings Of pitching. Just how far
back of the Yankees the runner
up Cleveland club would have been
without the aid of these three
players is problematical.
ut should be added that two
OF the three players could have
been purchased by the Yankees
but we passed them up.
"We have always lived by the
rules passed at major league meet
ings and we will live by any rules
passed at the next one"

More Dollars Offered
|By Bowls With Fewer
Top Teams Eligible
BY the Assoeiaied Press

| ATLANTA, sOcC. 3l.-InereS q
shortage of football teams per-
mitted to play in a bowl New
Years Day, but there's no short
age in dollars to induce the will
ing.
With television networks dump
ling additional cash into Miami
New Orleans, Dallas and PaSa-
dena for the right to put the bowl
shows on the air, the payof per
team this winter will be bigger
than ever.
All of which is fine for members
of the Southwest and Southeast
ern Conferences and a scattering
of independent colleges through
out the country. Those leagues
and teams see no more wrong with
tplaying football on New Years
Day than they do on Saturday ir
October or November.
The Big Seven, Skyline, South
ern and Ivy leagues have banned
bowls. Only one Pacific Coast
team and one member of the Big
Ten can play and they must play
each other III Pasadena's Rose
Bowl.
Promoters Less ChOOsy.
With the bowl field cut so dras-
tically. Bowl promoters and scouts
are finding once and twice de-
feated teams a lot more attractive.
And promoters see nothing
wrong with inviting the same team
two years running. Oklahoma
went to the Sugar Bowl three
years in a row, but on the third
visit merchants in New Orleans
noted a sharp drop in the amount
OF money in circulation.
Irwin Poche, Sugar Bowl presi-
dent, said Maryland and Tennes-
see received $4,000 each for last
January's game. Television may
bring more per team this year, he
added. Three networks are bid
ding.
"We just want outstanding
teams" Poche said, indicating a
team playing two years in a row
suited him.
Its quite possible the four
major bowls will have teams that
have been beaten" he added. "Ar
undefeated record is not a re-
quirement for a bid"
Observes Conference Bans.
It's understood that the Cotton
Bowl in Dallas would not invite q
team from any conference ban
ming a bowl under any circum-
stances.
The Southwest Conference cham
pion picks an opponent for the
Cotton Bowl and here again, pick
ings are lean.
Georgia Tech and Baylor got
a little more than $4,000 each
in Miami's Orange Bowl last Jan
ary. r. D. Freeman, Orange
schedule chairman. says each team
this year will get more than $780,
O00."
Freeman has no objection to in
viting the same team two years in
a row but, he says, the Orange
Bowl will observe conference bans
Maryland and Clemson of the
Southern Conference were pena-
lized for playing in the Sugar and
Gator Bowls last January.
Since no television is planned
for Jaeksonville's Gator Bowl. the
pAyof is expected to remain In
the neighborhood Of 100000 per
team. The Gator does not believe
III inviting the same team twice
in row, unless there's a huge
local following.
