Frick Facing
Tough Decision

MIAMI BEACH, Fla, Dec
8 CAP). - Baseball Commits
sioner Ford Frick may face the
toughest decision of his career
during the next four days.
Frick will have to decide
whether to take action on his
own If the American League
ignores his suggestion to take
a definite stand on expansion
at Mondays meeting.
I'll play it by ear" Frick
said today. How can l COM
ment until I know what action
VIII be taken at the meetings?"
1t was learned that the
American League will announce
merely that it plans to explore
further the possibility of ex-
pansion on the recommended
ton of its three-man fact
finding committee.
The f1ve-team Continental
League, which scheduled a
meeting here Tuesday. un-
doubtedly will have some acid
comment to make if the Ameri-
can ducks a positive answer.
A Continental League fran
chise-holder, who asked not to

Joe Cronin, president of the
American League, explained
why the league would not ask
hastily.
Il don't see how anybody
can tell us to give a definite
yes or no on expansion right
now" Cronin said. They don't
seem to realize all the problsms
involved.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. S
(AP).-The defending cham
pion Baltimore Colts meet the
Forty-Niners at Kezar Stadium
today before a sellout crowd of
more than $4,000 in a nation
ally televised game that could
decide the National Football
Leagues Western Division race.
(The game will be seen in
/ Washington on WTOP-9,
starting at 4::3O p.m0.
With the two teams dead
locked for first place with 7-3
records, the winner will be as
sured of tie for the division
title. The Chicago Bears are
one game back with a GA rec
ord, and play the Pittsburgh
Steelers tomorrow in Chicago.
Giants Meet Browns
The Bears game is one of
five on the Sunday schedule.
which is headlined by the
Cleveland Browns invasion of
New York. where the Giants
hope to pin down Eastern Di-
vision laurels. Either a victory
or a tie would do it.
The Colts, Six-point favorites
today, never have won a game
in San Francisco, but Coach
Weeb Ewbank doesn't consider
his team jinxed. Blocking,
tackling, the passing of Johnny
Unitas and the running of
Lenny Moore and Alan Ameche
count more with Ewbank than
a jinX.
Unitas, with 26 touchdown
passes this season, needs only
two more to match a league rec
ord set by Sid Luckman of the
Bears in l943. He also has a
string of 35 games in which he
has thrown a touchdown pass.
The Forty-NinerS never have
won their division champion
ship, although they tied Detroit
in 1887 and lost a 31-27 playoff
game. They were Inundated by
the Colts in Baltimore two
weeks ago. 45-14, and it was
doubly painful when Quarter
back Y. A. little suffered a
knee injury that has kept him
on the bench since.
BrOdie at Quarterback
Titles place today will be
taken by John Brodie, former
Stanford star, who piloted the
team to a 21-2O upset over the
Browns last Sunday to keep San
FranciSco's title hopes alive.
The Forty-N.ners have added
c. r. Roberts. 2to-pound full
back, to their roster for the last
two games-just for insurance.
To make room for Roberts, who
was released by the Pittsburgh
Steelers and also played in
Cana d a. Coach Red Hickey
dropped Halfback Billy Atkins.
Tomorrow'S schedule also lists
the Green Bay Packers at Los
Angeles. Chicago Cardinals at
Detroit and Philadelphia at
Washington.

Syracuse and Colts
Foyored in Todoy's
2 Big Games on TV.

.. LOS ANGELES. Dec. S (AP)
{. 1.-The Bruins of UCLA are at
tempting to play the role OF
giant-killer again today in
tackling Syracuse, the Nations
top-ranked. unbeaten football
team.
The Bruins played the part
successfully two weeks age
when they belted Southern
California's TrojanS out of the
undefeated ranks, 1913.
Sixty thousand or more fans
are expected to sit in person at
the game in Memorial Coliseum.
, Waiting, too, is an armchair
audience stretched across the
country, able to watch the ac-
tivlties on television via the
National Broadcasting Co. net
work. (The game will be seen
IN Washington over WRC-4,
starting at 4 p.m.)
Nothing to Lose
The West Coast team, winner
OF five, loser Of three and tied
in another, went into the inter-
sectional struggle with virtu-
ally nothing to lose.
But a victory over the vaunted
Orangemen from the East. the
UCLA hackers felt, would be
almost as gratifying as the
Bruins win over the hated
rivals from across town, South
ern Cal.
syracuse was rated a 14-point
tavorite to make this its 10th
straight triumph of the regular
season. The Orange plays
Texas in the Cotton Bowl New
Years Day.
There was every evidence
that the Syracuse forces were
on the anxious side, despite the
aWesome statistics and the
teams great personnel and
depth. Many a fan here
thought, Let's see if they
really are that good"
Coach Ben Schwartzwalder
definitely was not underesti-
mating the Bruins. He said his
scouts reported they were the
fastest team on the Orange
schedule.
First Single Wing Team
He also pointed out that this
is the first single wing team
Syracuse has met since it
played a TT tie with Iowa
State in 1857.
There were many interest
ing angles and individuals to
watch.
1nere was the "SiZeable
seven," Syracuse'S big, shifty
line, which numbered two ALL
America performers, Right End
Fred Mautino and Left Guard
Roger Davis.
And there was an array of
backs, including Right Half
Ernie Davis, who has been
likened to an all-time great of
Syracuse football history, Full
back Jimmy Brown of the
Cleveland Browns.
UCLA has its heroes, too.
notably Halfbacks Bill Kilmer.
a triple-threat man, and Bobby
Smith, an elusive runner; Full
back Ray Smith, a great clutch
plunger, and a line that was
outweighed but noted for its
quick hitting power.

Coach Adolph Rupp prob
ably heaved a sigh of relief
after his Kentucky Wildcats
pulled out a 68-66 victory over
UCLA in the first game of a
weekend visit to the West
Coast.
Tonight the Wildcats play
Southern California. a 64-61
upset victim of Santa Clara in
the first game of last nights
double-header in Los Angeles
that featured Kentucky.
The Wildcats, expected to
be one of college baSketbal's
powers this season, nipped the
spirited Bruins on some clutch
shooting by Sid Cohen.
Meanwhile. California, the
defending NCAA champion.
and West Virginia, the team
the Bears defeated, ITO, for
the title last March, both
posted impressive victories.
California overpowered Cali

Bears 18th straight.

All-America Jerry West and
Lee Patrone spearheaded West
Virginia to a 98-76 decision
over The Citadel at Charleston,
S. c. The success stretched
the Mountaineers' Southern
Conference winning streak to
81 games.
Cohen, a backcourt general
from Brooklyn, took charge in
the last 80 seconds to pull out
the Kentucky squeaker. With
the score tied, 64-all, the g.
foot-1 senior scored on three
point play. Cohen scored only
five points, but he got them all
in the last 80 seconds.
The Wildcats, who ranked
second in the Associated Press
poll last season, overcame a
34-28 halftime deficit. Bill
Lickert's % points were high
for Kentucky.
California controlled the
backboardS against the under
manned Santa Barbara team,
while hitting on ass of its field

$4,000 for Fullmer

The Associated Press card
showed 146-142.
$4,000 for Fullmer
Fullmer, receiving 40 per cent
of the approximate $780, 900 gate
from a capacity crowd of 7.10O
and of 100000 TV money, will
collect about $4,000. Webb will
get $4,000. along with his
blasted dreams.
II wouldn't exactly say I won
every round" Fullmer de-
clared in the dressing room.
But he added he felt he was
the clear winner.
Manager Jenson talked of
two possible big-money shots
| for his f1ghter-Moore or Rob-
inSon and perhaps Bobo Olson
in a non-title affair.
WED go for that" Jenson
said of a possible Moore bout.
Earlier he'd said Fullmer
wanted a crack at Archie.
Robinson comes into the pic
ture since he still holds recog-
milton as the 160-pound cham
Ipion in New York and MaSSa-
chusetts. If Ray beats Paul
Pender in their January bout,
JenSon indicated Fullmer would
be more than pleased to tackle
Robinson again.
Olson comes into the talk
for a bout in San Francisco,
since Gene wants to fight a
light-heavyweight before try
ing Moore. Olson, former mid
dleweight champion, currently
is trying a comeback as a l75-
FOUNDER.
No Mistakes Made
Against Webb, the champion
didn't make any mistakes of
the type that cost him the un-
disputed title on May |, 1857,
when Robinson knocked him
out with a left hook to regain
the crown that Gene had taken
from Sugar Ray the previous
January 2.
Fullmer crashed body blows
and punched hard shots to the
head. Webb opened a small
cut over Fullmer's left eye in
the second round and another
over his right in the 18th. Webb
appeared unmarked as he wept
in disappointment in his dress
ing room.
Il thought I won that fight.
that's for sure" the defeated
fighter declared. The chal-
lenger thought ne had knocked
Fullmer down in the fourth
round, but Referee Shulsen
ruled it a slip. All the officials
hail from Utah, and Shulsen is
from Fullmer's home town.
Manager Hec Knowles and
Trainer Carl Nelson both
claimed Webb had won. but a
poll of ringside newspapermen.
showed only one had Webb
ahead.
Fullmer felt he had fought
a tougher man last August %
when he won the NBA title by
stopping Carmen Basilio in the
14th round at San Francisco.
Il don't think Webb was as
good as he was the last time
we fought" the champion said.
Fullmer had won a 10-round
decision a year ago. The NBA
required him to fight Webb as
part OF its effort to clear the
middleweight picture, but won't
