BockfieId Grid Ace

Boston CAMP - The newly or
ganized Boston club of the equally
newly born American Football
League Sunday announced the

ern university's halfback sensation

Burton, who shattered the scor-
ing record of Otto Graham, form

was the No. choice of the Boston
club. He was also No. l on the

Pitcher Sam Jones To
Toll For Sionfs' In 30

Monogah, w. Va. CAMP - Pit
cher Sam Jones, the workhorse of
the New York Giants, who posted
the best earned run average in the
National League last year, has let
it be known that he will go all out
to help the Giants win the pernant
in 1860.
The curve-balling highlander
said he didn't want to predict the
outcome of the pennant race, but
felt the Giants will be a contender
all the way.
Jones was interviewed at his
home here, after the Giants gave
him a substantial pay boost be-
cause of the outstanding job he
turned in last season. He will leave
for spring training at Phoenix,
AriZ., Feb. Is.
Jones was the most dependable
hurler for the Giants last season,
doubling as starter and reliever.
Despite the heavy schedule, how
ever, he posted an enviable 2.s2
earn-run average, and had a Pills
won-lost record. He appeared in
81 games, pitching 271 innings.
Jones also turned in two great
performances last season. He hurl-
ed no-hitter against the st. Louis
Cardinals and a one-hitter against
the Los Angeles Dodgers. The one
hit in the Dodger game came on a
scratch grounder and Jones is still
burned up about it. 81 said before
he (the scorer was wrong in call
ing it a hit and 1 still say it,"
argued Jones.
Jones, who is expected to get
substantial mound help from pit
cheers Billy Loes and Billy O'Dell,
both recently acquired in a trade
with Baltimore of the American
League, said he hopes the breaks
favor the Giants this season. Dur
ing the final two weeks of last
season, he said, everybody in the
league had the breaks but u.s."
Jones wouldn't disclose the size
of the pay boost, but said, II am
perfectly satisfied"

Duquesne Player
Lost ID Pounds
GUARDING bio O"

PlttSDurgh (ANP) - DuqueSne' s
George Brown might never turn in
another performance after the
night he guarded o. Robertson, the
fabulous Big o., and held the
Cincinnati university sharpshooter
to 13 points. He just might not
have it in his system.
Why? Brown, who netted a total
of 10 points to outscore Robertson
in the game, almost wore himself
out chasing the Cincinnatian
throughout the 40 minutes of the
game. AS a result, he lost IA
pounds, and wound up with blood
led knees and a bruised leg.
However, Brown, an obscure
basketballer prior to the encounter,
achieved his objective. Assigned
to guard the Big o" during the
game, he did such a thorough job
that Oscar missed 10 of the IA
shots he attempted from the floor
Struck To Him Like White On Rice
Brown was all over Oscar like
measles and kept a hand in his
face most of the time. He explained
his play this way: Il wasn't tight
but I was emotionally up for the
game. I had to be on the go every
second. 1 couldn't let up for a
minute. I was afraid to take my
eyes off him"
1t was the first time in the three
years Robertson has been the ma
tons leading college scorer that
anybody else has outscored him.
With Robertson being harassed
by Brown, Cincinnati, the nations
No. 1 team, barely managed to
edge Duquesne, 61-5S.
Brown was assigned the task of
guarding Robertson by Duquesne
Coach Red Manning and practiced
for h week on a pattern of play,
called "a skyscraper."
II practiced on the freshmen, "
recalled Brown. II thought about
it all week. how I'd do it. I planned
it. I know he's the best player in
the country but he was going to
have to prove it"

Dick Bdrneff Is
Promising Syracuse
N.B,A. Rookie

Syracuse, N. Y. CAMP - One
Of the most promising rockies in
the National Basketball Associa-
ton this season forgetting Wilt
Chamberlain, Of course) is Dick
Barnett, backcourt and front court
performer Of the Syracuse Nation
ais.
Barnett, former Tennessee State
Star and little All-American selec-
ton last season, did not join the
Nationals until after Is games
He was finishing his six-month
military stint, started last June.
But since he got his baptism,

cuse game and made an imprint
on opponents and teammates.
Here's why:
In q games, he played $50 min
utes, had 12' field goals, SIS foul
points 301 total points, Ill aver
age per game, Sc rebounds and IS
assists. His field goal accuracy
was 1886 and his foul-shooting per-
centage 1896.
Number one draft choice of the
Mats last spring, Barrett joined
the Eastern Division team with the
reputation as one of the classiest
collegiate products of last season
Rated as a standout jump shooter
from a distance, Barnett also was
exceptionally strong as a college
rebounder.
He was drafted to give the Mats
backcourt strength, but Coach
Paul Seymour has found use for
him as a forward.
Tennessee State won the NAIA
title three times in a row, and last
year Barnett was named the tourn-
ey's most valuable player in Kan
sas City.
His college coach, Johnny Nc
Lendon, now of the Sweany Pipers,
Cleveland's entry in the National
Industrial Basketball League, rates
Barnett as a great defensive player
and fine floorman, in addition to
his shooting and rebounding abil-
tiles
Dick holds a wide assortment
of records at his alma mater, in
Guiding total points in a season,
highest career scoring total, most
points in one game and most con-
secutive free throws.
In four seasons at Tennessee
State, he average 23.6 points in a
total of 1876 games.

majored in health and physical
education.

A BOWLING BALL SPEAKS
By Dot Haas-The Woman
Bowler (Jan,)

Bowler (Jan.)
That sleepy looking fellow is
$40. Do you know it is fellows
like him who hold up the league
and make us get home late. His
owner is never on time-she is al
ways away from the bench getting
drink, or on the telephone, or
else talking to her boy friend,
when she gets up she takes too
much time in her delivery by
watching for everybody within four
lanes on each side Of her before
she decides to bowl. The ball Just
can't help taking a nap between
frames.
That grumpy looking fellow is
AL, short for ALIBI. No matter
what happens, we hear an alibi.
Either the pins are no good, the
approaches are sticky, someone
threw him off or he was robbed.
Sometimes I wonder how ever
got mixed up in this game, but
/ guess that is why I was born.
1t all started one day when I was
sitting in a box in a Sporting
Goods store and a woman came
in with a Christmas gift certifi-
cate from her husband. She said
she wanted to be fitted for a
bowling ball. The proprietor pro-
ceeded to measure her by letting
her swing a ball with so many
holes in it that it looked like
Swiss cheese. They evidently came
to some kind of decision for l was
picked out and three holes were
drilled in my side. You hear of
painless dentist and I guess those
ball drillers took lessons at a dental
college for it didn't hurt at all.
I feel sorry for the fellows who
are drilled wrong in the first place
and have to go back for more
drilling or plugging. 1 guess it all
depends on going to a dependable
dealer.
These automatic machines are
really something. I started with
pin boys and I'll tell you-some-
times wish they were back. Ev-
erything is fine until a machine
decides to give us a ride. One
night I got stuck and I thought
all my skin would be rubbed off.
You know it was funny at first
being picked up by metal hands
instead of human ones, even though
those boys were pretty rough.
