CHICAGO, Aug. 18. Eddie
Arcaro was named today to ride
Native Dancer in the 100000
American Derby at Washington
Park Saturday.
The veteran jockey became
available when James K. Norris
had his Derby entry, Jamie K,
declared out of the race. Arcaro
was committed to ride Jamie K.
Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt's
Native Dancer, winner of II of
his 1S starts, arrived in Chicago
today from the East. His trainer,
Bill Winfrey, said Arcaro will be
aboard the gray champion in
Saturdays race.
The Derby will mark the first
time Native Dancer has run
without Eric Guerin in the sad
die. Guerin drew a To-day SuS-
pension from stewards at Sara
toga for a foul in last Saturdays
Saratoga Special, making him
unavailable for the Derby.
Norris informed Washington
Park officials he was withdraw

Assurance of Major Team
Sought by Kansas CITY

KANSAS CITY, Aug. 18 (P.-
Mayor William E. Kemp said last
night he would oppose purchase
of Blues Stadium by the city un-
less the city is assured a major
league baseball franchise.
However, he said he was conf
dent such assurance could be OBJ
tanned.
II believe most of the members
Of the council feel the same way"
the Mayor said. "All of us are
enthusiastic over the proposal to
obtain a major league team. But
there would be no point in buy
ing the stadium and enlarging it
without promise of a major
league club"
Parke Carroll, general man
ager of the Kansas City Blues of
the American Association, told
the Mayor that the New York
Yankee organization is willing to
sell the stadium if the city wants
to get into major league baseball.
Mayor Kemp said that if an
agreement is reached on the
price of the stadium, the next
step would be to confer with
owners Of the st. Louis Browns
or other major league clubs about
moving here
There is all the logic in the
world for the Browns to move to
Kansas City," the Mayor re-
marked. THE Browns are not
supported in st. Louis and there
is no wonder that they are a drag
in the league in view of the lack

Injuries Handicap Redskins
On Eve of Game With Rams

LeBaron didn't punt last night
and will skip it again tonight in
the final tune-up on the Coli
scum turf. He likes to rest his
leg a couple of days before a
game if he does the kicking.
Backf1eld Coach Bill Dudley
will be in uniform to kick field
goals and extra points. But
Coach Curly Lambeau is sold on
Bob Dean of Maryland for kick
ing-off. Dean also has impressed
at tackle and is a good bet to
stick with the club.
Crowd May Top $4,000.
The game, with it's f1ve-ring
circus and half-time show fea-
turing Hollywood celebrities, has
aroused so much interest the
attendance may top the 1850
record of 95,625 paid admissions.
Director Paul SchiSsler reported
one-day record sale of more
than $4,000 yesterday. With all
the better seats gone, Schissler
believes the attendance may hit
100000, an all-time pro game
mark.
Meantime, the Redskins luck
with players in the All-Star game
in Chicago ran true to form. It
was bad.
Scarbath, who started at quar-
terback for the collegians against
the Detroit Lions, is temporarily
out of action. A Clipped bone
in his right index finger put the
Maryland passing star on the
bench for tomorrow's game.
George Marshall, Redskins
president, arrived here late yes
terday and Immediately unloosed
a verbal barrage at the Chicago
promoters. He said the public
should have been informed of
Scarbath'S injury before the
game ana CnaC the nnger should
have received better attention.
Hurt 10 Days Before Game.
Scarbath's finger was injured
when ne struck a teammate'S
helmet in a scrimmage about 10
days before the game. He said
the finger was not X-rayed to
determine the full extent of the
injury, although he was given
X-ray treatments.
They shot it>with needles just
before the game" Scarbath said.
Marshall accused Chicago Off

Mats Opening Series
At Their Graveyard;
Schmitz Faces Miller
By Burton Howkins
Stor StoH Correspondent

NEW YORK, Aug. 18.-The
Mats will visit their graveyard
tonight when they open a three
game series at Yankee Stadium,
where they have dropped seven
of eight games and seen their
pitching pounded for Is home
runs.
Johnny Schmitz, AL Sima and
Bob Porterfield will oppose the
Yankees in that order. Bucky
Harris hopes to get better pitch
ing from them than he has seen
here previously this year.
The Mats have yielded SIS home
runs on the road and the Yank-
ees have accounted for more
than their share. Washington's
chief tormentor has been Yogi
Berra, who has clipped the Mats
pitching for seven homerS, in
cluding five here.
Nevertheless, the Mats have
generated excitement in games
here before whiting in the late
innings. On their last visit a
single by Gene Woodling with
two down in the ninth beat them,
The day before Billy Martin
homered in the 10th inning to
whip them. Previously Woodling
had walloped a three-run homer
in the ninth to edge the Mats.
AZ, and Loren Babe delivered
a two-run homer in the eighth
to nip them in another close
one.
Mickey Vernon hopes to make
Yankee Stadium the scene of his
1,800th major league hit. He
needs six more hits to reach that
level. He's the only homegrown
American Lacquer in immediate
striking range of that ambition.
Johnny Mize of the Yankees and
Bob Elliott of the White Sox
both are over the 2,000-hit mark,
but the bulk of their hits were
obtained in the National League.

Series May Match
1OO-Game Winners
For Only Sixth Time
By the Asseeioisd Press

The Yankees and Dodgers,
pulling away in the pennant
races. are working on a little
intramural competition to hold
their interest. Their new goal is
100 victories each.
The Dodgers have 80 games
left and need to win % to hit the
century mark-a figure reached
by only two other Brooklyn clubs
in history. The Yankees will
have to win 81 of their last 38.
Yankee teams in the past have
reached 100 or more victories
eight times, but not in the last
II years.
If both clubs make it, this
would be the first season since
1912 to produce a pair of 100
game champions. In that year
the Yankees won 103 and the
Cardinals took LOG and the World
Series.
Five PrecedentS.
Only five times since they
started playing the World Series
have both contenders gone in
with season records of 100 vic
tories or more.
In 1941 both Brooklyn and the
Yankees were 100-game clubs
and the Yankees won. The Cardi-
mails beat Philadelphia in a meet
ing of 100-game winners in 1881.
The 1912 Red Sox whipped the
Giants and the Athletics of 1910
defeated the Cubs.
Both the Yankees and Dodgers
fattened their margins over
their nearest rivals last night.
The New Yorkers won a pair of
one-sided games from Phila-
delphia 1913 and 90, and
moved nine games in front of
the idle White Sox.
Brooklyn came from behind
on Duke Snider's two-run homer
in the ninth and then beat
Pittsburgh, So, on Gil Hodges
three-run blast in the 18th. The
Dodgers gained half game on
idle Milwaukee and lead by 8h
games.
1855 Fans at Polo Grounds.
In the only other activity the
Giants and Phillies split a pair
in the privacy of the spacious
Polo Grounds. Only 1885 cash
customers watched the Phils win
the first game, So, and bow in
the second, 60. The double
header was the third in three
days between the two clubs. The
Giants won the series, four games
to two.
The Phils clinched the first
game with four runs in the
eighth inning off Dave KoSlo,
who started his first game since
June %. The Giants took the
nightcap from Andy Hansen,
who was making his first start
in three years.
Johnny Lindell tanned the
Dodgers on three hits until
Bobby Morgan opened the ninth
with o single and Snider fol-
lowed on the next pitch with his
28th homer. In the 18th Lin
dell got into immediate trouble
by walking Snider and Jackie
Robinson and running the count
to 8 and / on Hodges. The big
first baSeman then hit his 26th
home run.
The victory was the 10th
straight for the Dodgers and

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 18.-The
Redskins have a starting lineup
problem for tomorrow nights
debut against the Rams. A slight
leg infection threatens to keep
Chuck DraZenovich out of the
offensive fullback role in addi-
tion to the injury that has side
lined Jack Scarbath.
But Drazenovich says the
threat is as slight as the infec-
ton.

star said. Nothing will keep me

infection developed.

ting Drazenovich for the full

to give it good try. They
probably will wind up sharing
the work, especially if Chuck is
needed on defense.
Rykovich's injured knee is an
other problem. It has slowed
him down, although the injury
is not supposed to be serious and
might keep him on the bench.
But Julie, like Chuck, was run

to play regardless.

Veec Says He Can Shift Browns Los Angeles Buys Ball Park
Five More Schools
Reported Involved
In NCAA Charges
By the Associoted Press


CHICAGO, Aug. 18.-With
three schools added to its dis
ciplinary list, the National COL
legiate Athletic Association
turned to other Investigations
today.
A spokesman said five more
schools are involved in charges
of violating the NCAA's athletic
code but that Investigations are
incomplete. The schools were
not named.
Notre Dame. Michigan State
and Arizona State at Temple
were reprimanded by the NCAA's
17-man council. a policy-making
group, at the close of its meet
ing yesterday.
Michigan State already had
been put on probation by the
Big Ten Conference because Of
the activities of an off-campus
foundation" which allegedly
aided athletes The council said
it supported the probation.
Cited Over Tryouts.
It also asked an accounting,
by February %, of the founda-
tion's operations.
All three schools were cited
for permitting campus tryouts of
prospective athletes. Neither
Notre Dame nor Michigan State
received any specific punish
ment, but Arizona State was put
on two years probation.
In addition to permitting try
outs, the Arizona school was
charged with permitting pay to
athletes. AS a further punish
ment, all its athletes were ruled
ineligible for NCAA champion
ship events for the 1884 school
year.
Notre Dame and Arizona State
admitted doing wrong, but
grumbled about the severity Of
the NCAA's action. Michigan
State, which protested loudly
after the Big Tens probation
was announced, reacted mildly to
the NCAA pronouncement. Ralph
Young, athletic direction, said:
We're hoping that the Big
Ten probation will be lifted soon.
We are observing all Big Ten
and NCAA rules in every way,
shape and manner"
NOtre Dame Explains.
The Rev. Edmund P. Joyce.
C. S. c., executive vice president
of Notre Dame, said Irish coaches
had used a modified type Of
tryout." He said the university
stopped the practice when it
learned of it last January and
invoked disciplinary measures"
against the coaches. He added
in a statement:
cit is ironic to be subjected to
public opprobrium for minor
offense which was deciSively
handled on the university level.
There are many areas of really
serious abuses toward which
the NCAA could have much more
profitably turned its attention. 3"
Coach Frank Leahy, terming
Notre Danes offense "the
smallest of venial sins as things
are going" declared:

WrigIey Holds Key
To Proposal Made
To Civic Authorities
BY the Assoeiosed Press


Bill Veeck has promised Los
Angeles County and city off,
cials that if they can purchase
the local baseball park the
American League will permit
him to bring the st. Louis
Browns franchise here next year
the Times said today.
The park is owned by p. K.
Wrigley, who holds the fran
chiSes both for the Los Angeles
Angels of the Pacific Coast
League and the Chicago Cubs.
Paul Zimmerman, sports edi-
tor Of the Times, said Veeck
made his proposition to consti-
tuted authorities here during a
visit several weeks ago.
Last spring Veeck made an
attempt to move the Browns to
Baltimore but other American
League owners turned down his
bid. Later the National League
approved transfer of the Boston
Braves franchise to Milwaukee.
Capacity Now 10000.
zimmerman's front-page story
said that if some civic authority
purchases Wrigley Field, home
Of the Angels, it would be en-
larged at an early date. Present
capacity is 10000.
The Times said:
Veeck returned to Los Angeles
yesterday for further discussions
OF the matter but could not be
reached for comment last night.
In Chicago, Jimmy Gallagher,
business manager of the Cubs,
confirmed receipt of a letter from
a Los Angeles civic representative
inquiring whether Los Angeles
Wrigley Field could be purchased
in order to make Weeks PROPOSE
ton workable.
Gallagher said he didn't know
what Wrigley's reply would be.
Should Wrigley agree to sell,
he could transfer the Angel
franchise elsewhere or demand
that the buyer purchase both
the park and the local franchise
rights.
League Not Improving.
Considering the present un-
satisfactory condition of the Pa
cif1c Coast League. Wrigley
might be induced to sell now,
whereas it was unlikely in other
years" Zimmerman continued.
CThere have been various ru-
mors this season that Wrigley
was considering selling the
Chicago franchiSe.)
Despite the fact that the
league has been given open clas-
sification. it has shown no Wis
ible advancement. Several clubs
are in at least bothersome fl
nancial straits and Paul Pagan,
owner of the San Francisco
Seals, has been quoted as say
ing the league is dying"
Won't Sell Roof Over Heads.
In Chicago, Wrigley said the
sale of Wrigley Field in Los
Angeles "is a question of deal
ing with a corporation, which
owns the Pacific Coast League
franchise"
Il certainly cannot see minor
ity stockholders selling the roof
over their heads" he added.
Frank Lane, general manager
of the Chicago White Sox, said
that Veeck has not yet submitted
any plans to the American
League committee that must pass
on a franchise shift.
Il hope Veeck can effect a
switch of the Browns to a COM
munity where the potentials
justify a major league team"
Lane said. But he must provide
bonafide evidence, such as A.
nancial statements and other
credentials, that he can operate
successfully wherever he moves
before the American League
committee will consider a switch.
Bill apparently is in the process
OF getting such evidence to
submit"
