Yorktown is the heavy favor
ite in today's Louisiana Derby
at the Fair Grounds.
Bally Aches performance in
the Flamingo makes him one
of the early choices for tbs
Churchill Downs classic. The
colts time of LAB in the Fla
mingo was the second fastest

race.
Warfare is out Of action for
at least three weeks. He was
sent to the sidelines after he
finished second in a 6-furlong
race at Santa Anita early in
January.
Adding foreign flavor to the
nominees are Victoria Park and
Round Tree.
Victoria Park. carrying the
silks of Windfields Farm Of
Toronto, already has beaten
some of the best 3-year- -olds in
this country including Bally
Ache.
Round Tree is from the
Enrique Soto Rivera stud in
Caracas and the first Venezue-

Track crews at Bowie still

strip for workouts at the snow

The decision not to try to
reopen Bowie until Wednesday
was made yesterday after John

and Joseph Flanagan, steward
representing the Maryland Rae
ing Commission, surveyed the
track area. They agreed it
would be best to set a definite
date next week to resume in
stead of calling the shots day
by day.
If the track gets back in
business on Wednesday it will
have surrendered six days of
the scheduled 4O-day session
to the weather.
The Bowie management is
in favor of making up the six
lost days at next years meeting
on its home grounds, but the
Maryland Racing Commission
has indicated it will resched-
ule the days at Laurel in Oc-
tober.
However. the commission has
amended its rules to allow
Bowie to hold 10-race pro-
grams on four of it's remain
ing dates in order to make up
for those lost when a snow
storm forced cancellation of
part of the February 13 card.
One extra race will be held
on each of the three remain
ing Saturdays and another on
a weekday.
Cancelled at Bowie today was
the featured ninth running of
the $25,000 Barbara Fritchie
Handicap. for which Tinka-
lero, last years winner, was a
heavy favorite. The filly and
mare handicap will be dropped
entirely this year, as was the

ACTION STILL CAN BE REVERSED
Big Ten EmbroiIed
By Post-Seoson Ban

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Mar. 5
(AP) The 64-year-old West
ern Conference was embroiled
in a ee-for-all family fight
today-a scrap which may end
with the powerful loop conf1n-
ing all sports to its own back
yard.
Rebellious Big Ten athletic
directors set off the explosion
yesterday.
Shorn of Pasadena's pomp,
pageantry and prestige-plus a
100000 annual payoff-by
faculty votes which yesterday
killed the 14-year-old Rose
Bowl football pact, the sports
chiefs struck back.
They came up with a start
ling resolution urging that
poSt-season events in all sports
be banned-not just in football
Faculty representatives i'm
mediately approved it.
The conference rules on ma
jor legislation provide a 60-day
cooling off" period before it
becomes effective. Thus a new
vote is practically assured at
the May 1921 session in East
Lansing. Mich, after the faculty
men get new instructions from
their universities.
Other Sports Affected
A majority vote at East Lam
sing is necessary to change the
action.
But if the members split SIS
as they did in outlaWing the
Rose Bowl pact, then out the
window go post-season partici-
patton in the NCAA basketball
tournaments, AAU meets, and
late tennis, baseball, golf
wrestling, swimming and other
competitions.
Lone exception is Olympic
tryouts, once every four years
Rejection Of the Rose Bowl
pact had been expected. But
the directors hit the roof when
Indiana shifted its vote and
gave a GA majority to erase a
clause which would have given
individual members the privi-
lege of accepting a Rose Bowl
invitation.
NCAA Relations Good
Although the Rose Bowl
pact is dead, the proposal that
a member could go on an invi-
rational basis is still breathing
slightly. 1t is possible. Assist

said, that it could come up fol
another vote at the East
Lansing session.
Reed said the ban on post
season competition "is not tC
be taken as a revolt against
the NCAA. Our relations are
as strong and good now as
they have been for years."
He cited the fact that the
Big Ten had rejected a million
dollar television deal for next
year because it would have been
in defiance of NCAA regula-
tions governing such sports
broadcasts.
Another offcialSaid the post
season ban was approved as a
matter of consistency with the
overall thinking which led tc
the Rose Bowl ban. He said

ture, one director said, was
concern with certain aspects
of the NCAA championship
program-especially the basket
ball and the selection of some
OF the at-large teams for the
the tournament"
Walter Byers, executive direc-
tor of the NCAA, said in Kan
Sas City:
Il have no comment until
we receive some official COM
munication from the Big Ter
Conference on the matter"
Amid all the off-the-record
talk about how the post-seasor
ban would cost the Big Ter
heavily in the athlete recruit
ing field, slash its prestige and
finances, and bring about a
lingering sports faculty cole
war, was a barb aimed al
Northwestern.
One athletic director said
there was doubt the faculty
was in control of athletics al
the Evanston University. He
charged that President j. Ros-
coe Miller had overruled the
Athletic Board which favored
a Rose Bowl pact with the
West Coast, and that there is
bitterness among athletic di-
rectors as we'll as faculty

In Salary Fight
BY the Associated Press

A miffed Mickey Mantle, his
pride injured and his pocket
book threatened, bombed back
at his New York Yankee bosses
last night in his holdout war.
Mantle had a hard time re-
laXing at his home in Dallas
as he assured a reporter that
I'm not bluffing!" g.
Mantle apparently stiffened
his stand against a $4,000 cut
in his $4,000 yearly salary as
Yankee General Manager
George Weiss blasted the hold
out campaign of New York
stars.
Weiss adopted a toughened
policy against Mantle and other
Yankee holdouts that resulted
in two of the players-Relief
Pitcher Ryne Duren and Out
fielder Ken Hunt-showing up
at camp in st. Petersburg, Fla.
Duren signed for a reported
$4,000 increase to $4,000. Hunt
was expected to sign momen-
tarily.
Kubek Staying Home
But Mantle said he would
remain in Dallas, and Infielder
Tony Kubek stayed at his Mil
waukee home. Infielder Andy
Carey is in ST. Petersburg, but
he is staying away from the
Yankee training quarters.
This is the year Mantle
must learn the facts of life"
Weiss snapped. He must learn
he can't bulldoze us into meet
ing his terms. He must come
in and talk everything over
reasonably"
Mantle, shown the Weiss
statement, exploded. Il don't
know what he means by bull
doing. but I'll tell you this.
I'm not trying to bulldoze any
one. I'm not trying to bluff
them, either"
Mantle, who earlier this
week said, II don't even know
if l mind being traded or not"
declared the reported salary
cut was too much.
We've been pampering this
boy for nine years, and I think
its about time he acted like a
man." Weiss said. I've said
right along I'm more than
willing to discuss this salary
question with him, but not
over telephone. We're not
calling anybody"
This doesn't change what I
have already said" Mantle shot
back. Il will say it again. I
am not contracting them. Why
should I go down there and
meet them? If there was a
good reason to go, I would go.

ITS time he became a man."
Weiss said. I'VE always have
treated him fairly"
Mantle chided the Yankees
for not contracting him sooner
after he returned the proffered
contract in January.
i wrote them a nice letter
when they sent me that con-
tract back in January and told
them what I'd sign for. l didn t
hear from them for a month.
Now they say it's important.
Seems to me it was important
then, too"
Mantle has said several
times he expects to take a cut
this year. But he still main
talnS the offered salary for
the 1860 season is too much
under last years. Il wasn't
that bad," he insists.
Kubek seems headed for a

and let the Yankees make the
first move" he said.

RALEIGH. N. c., Mar. S.
Basketball has been a most un-
predictabfe game ever since DR..
Naismith hung up the first
peach basket. The Duke Uni
versity team will buy that
statement today, and it hopes
to re-emphasize it tonight when
it meets Wake Forest for the
Atlantic Coast Conference title.
The Blue Devils had only
hope going for them last night
against North Carolina, a team
that had beaten them by %,
"a and Is points in three pre-
vious games, but Duke scored
an astonishing 1859 victory in
an iron-man performance. Four
starters went all the way and
the other was rested only four
minutes.
Wake Forest. which proabbly
has played its two poorest
games in a row of the season
in the tournament, staggered
to the free throw line often
enough to beat North Carolina
State, 1855.
DeaconS Won Twice
Duke will be bucking about
the same type odds tonight.
The Blue Devils played Wake
Forest twice during the sea-
son and lost by II and l9
points.
Tonight's winner will meet
an Ivy League representative
in the first round of the NCAA
playoffs Tuesday night in New
York, and if victorious there
will meet st. Joseph's. an at
large team, in the second
round next Friday in Char
lotte.
The ACC tournament tempo
picked up last night after the
four sided. flrst-round
games. The Duke-North Caro-
lima thriller went down to the
last second. and some livid
name calling and a short fight
enlivened the last few min
utes of the Wake ForeSt-N. C.
State clash.
Dave Budd. who has been
involved in fights with Oscar
Robertson of Cincinnati and
Lee Shaffer of North Carolina
in his basketball career at
Wake Forest, and who is play
ing on probation, was tossed
out of the game along with
Anton Muehlbauer of N. c..

remaining.
Both Land Punch
Budd and Muehlbauer each
landed a solid punch. and as
they wrestled to the floor
Charlie Forte of Wake Forest
took a running dive on top of
them. Players from both
benches rushed to the court,
along with several policemen.
A few minutes earlier Russ
Marvel of N. c. State left the
game with a mouth and nose
bleed after he was bumped by
Jerry Steele in what appeared
to be an accident. But he had
to be restrained, and later tried
to hurdle the bench to get at a
fan who was heckling him.
Commissioner Jim Weaver of
the conference had left the
game a few minutes before the
fight. but he is not expected to
keep Budd out of the final to-
night even though Budd is on
probation.
1t was a rough. poorly Of
ficiated game and Coac
Everett Case of N. c. State
was so incensed with the of
ficiating he had difficulty in
speaking coherently.
Wake Forest is a big, rough
team and has not displayed the
polish here that it did in win
ming its last eight games of
the season, finishing with a
1875 record and tying North
Carolina for first place in the
standing with a 1872 record.
Good Game Looms
The Deacons have more 60
ing for them tonight than the
II and l9-point victories over
Duke. They still haven't played
to their capabilities. have had
two poor shooting perform
ances, and Duke will be COM
ing off of it's best game since
it upset Utah's Skyline Con-
ference champions in the Dixie
Classic.
For Duke. Carroll Youngkin,
the 6-foot-6 Junior from Win
Ston-Salem, never changed
expression or uttered a word
as he poured home 80 points
and almost doubled the re-
bounds of any of the Tar Heels.
Howard Hurt was the co-play-
maker with John Frye and
