Cards to Remove
Rightfield Screen
For More Homers

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 12.-When
baseball season begins, those hits
which for years have been
bouncing of the screen on the
rightfield pavilion at Busch Sta
dium will be home runs.
The Cardinals announced to-
day the screen, an old friend of
the pitchers, will be removed in
the interest of home run pro-
duction.
This year a drive win require
IS feet 2 inches less loft to be a
homer. However, st. Louis hon.
ers will be as respectable as those
in several other National League
parks. The rightfield foul line
measures 3l9 feet, compared to
257 in New York, 297 in Brook
lyn. 300 in Pittsburgh and 315
IN Milwaukee.
The club has been keeping tab
on the number of balls bouncing
of the screen and. not just in
cidentally, who hit them. Last
year the Cards batted the ball
against the screen 35 times, the
opposition only 18 times.
Stan Musial stands to benefit
most. He hit the screen 10 times
last season.

fault the Hoyas.
A 71-67 victory over New York

only three losses. a considerably
better record than the schools

New Foul Rule

Six Comes Decided
At Free Throw Line;
Aggie Upset on List
BY the A..eeisssd Press

The gents who are yelling foul
over college basketball's current
free-throw rule have a neat
package Of protest today-with
the winners In six major con-
tests last night scoring fewer COR.
at best, one more) field goals
than the losers.
Duke, Yale, Wake Forest. Me-

agara were the teams which
added to their victory totals
without a clear-cut verdict from
the field.
Duke defeated Clemson, 1886.
but had only a 1924 field goal
edge; Yale picked up its first VIC
tory of the season, 1868, over
Brown. but was outscored, 1925,
from the field; Wake Forest
topped Seton Hall, Tics. but
trailed the Pirates, 1921, in field
goals; Nebraska surprised Kan

21-20 field goal edge, and Mag.
ara beat Canisius. 1864, al-
though outshot, 1920.
Only Is Goals Apiece.
But the biggest talking point
for those protesting the rule was
the Oklahoma Aggie-Wichita
game. The Aggies and Wichita
were even-up with 13 field goals
apiece-yet the Aggies won it In
a waltz by Is points, 69-53.
