Sanders Heading
For U.C.L.A. Post
. LOS ANGELES, Jan. 21. — (AP) — Henry R. (Red)
§anders, reluctantly released by Vanderbilt University,
preparcd today to take over the football reins at UCLA—
one of the nation’s stormiest grid centers.
Sanders, head coach at Van
derbilt since 1940, was named to
the UCLA post last night — and
then sweated it out while Vandy
officials reportedly made him a
lucrative counter-offer, and fi
nally released him from the re
maining four years of his con
tract.
It was reliably reported that
Sanders moves West on a three
year’ contract calling for no less
than $15,000 a year.
But the popular, 44-year-old
pride of Nashville faces one of
the toughest coaching jobs in the
nation. Up and coming UCLA
went to the Rose Bowl in 1942
under Babe IHorrall, yet fired him
in 1945* went to the Rose Bowl
again January 1, 1947, under Bert
Laßrucherie, who resigned under
pressure last month.
The Coast Conference, step-‘
ping up its pace to recover glim
mering prestige, is a tough lea
gue to breal into and keep up
with. Laßrucherie, after winning
1€ straight in his second season,
won three and lost seven last
vear. |
One of SEC’s Best |
# Sanders brings with kim a rep
utation as one of the Soutneast’s
top coaches and a record of eight
iriumphs, two losses and a tie in
1948 He was selected for the
post over a crack ficld which
UCLA Athletic Director Wilbur
Johns said included 41 applicants.
The rew Bruin head man, who
also gives up his post as Vander
bilt athleitc divectdr, said he will
fly out from Nashville next
week to map out sprirg practice
plans. It was reported that three
members of his Commodore
coaching staff—Tommy Prothro,
Jim Meyers and Mike Balitsaris
—-évill come with Sanders to the
UCLA staff. Laßrucherie’s assist
ants also left in the general
housecleaning.
" Banders played quarterback un
r the late Dan McGugin at
anderbilt in the 1920’s and his
ach once tagged him as “one
of the brainiest players I've ever
wn.
. His subsequent record as Van
head coach brought him
“Coach of the Year” honors in
& Southeastern Conference in
h 1941 and 1946.
" Sanders will inherit a squad of
' lettermen and will be faced
th the problem of reconverting
:r‘m the T-formation to the sin
le wing he favors,

'End Another
- CHICAGO, Jan. 21—(AP)—
Peace machinery between the Na
tional Football League and the
All-America Conference ap
peared to have bogged down today
without producing resultts.
Even plans for AAC operations
in 1949 apparently have been
stymied.
“We still have hopes for peace,”
and “the AAC will operate in
1949,” those have been the only
statements issued. Neither an
nouncement, however, had shown
signs of becoming fact last night
when the AAC ended another
fruitless parley.
Meanwhile, the NFL has gone
along under the heading of “bus
iness as usual.” Commissioner
Bert Bell was granted a new 10-
year contract at $30,000 annually
—no appreciably raise. He had
three years to go on a pact given
him in 1947.
At the same time the guaran
teed take for visiting teams was
boosted from a minimum of $15,-
000 to $20,000, which was another
gesture of confidence tossed by
the NFL at the AAC.

Jack Kramer, who accidentally be

nothing better than to reserve
Madison Square Garden now for
the first match of a pro series with
Pancho Gonzales . . . Kramer pro

current amateur champion “needs
a lot of work” before he’ll become
a great player . . . “He’s a natural,”
says Jack. “Some people rise to
the occasion when they got to the
stadium at Forest Hills or Wimble

Angeles. . They play their best be
fore a crowd. I think Gonzales is
one of them.” . , . Also Gonzales

NEW YORK — Barbara Ann
Scott finds skating professionally
like getting out of school.
“You're so free,” said the 20-
year-old girl who won on Olym
pic championship last summer
then gave it up to turn profess
ional. “At first,” she went on, “I
looked at myself in the mirror to
see if 1 was any different. I kept
thinking, “How strange; I'm do
ing what I have always done—
but getting paid for it.”
Being an amateur, the Cana
dian Snowflake said, was like liv
ing in a strait-jacket. “If I accep
ted a soft drink, I would have to
hide the label from the photogra
phers. I-couldn’t speak to motion
picture people. I had to move
through a world of people and
remain apirt from them.”
Barbara®™ Ann Scott has great
personal beauty. She is blonde
and blue-eyed and 20, though she
looks 17. y
Her professoinal debut was as
the star of a show at the Roxy
theater on Broadway. Her dress
ing room revealed mementoes
people from everywhere sent or
brought in.
Skating on a tiny stage rink
was a new experience for Bar
bara Ann at first. She had to be
careful to keep from landing in
the third row. Now she is leaving
for Washington, to rehearse on a
large out-doors rink.
Tiny, feminine, beautifully pro
portioned, bright as a maple leaf,
Barbara Ann Scott began skating
at six. When she was seven, she
received her first pair of single
runner skates. This was at Christ
mas. Having the measles, she
wore them in bed.
Suggs Among
Leaders In
Florida Golf
TAMPA, Fla., Jen. 21—(AP)—
Babe Zaharias’ stock in the
Tampa Women’s Apen Golf Tour
nament has fallen several points
just as her score rose yesterday.
The Babe, who had smacked
out a 66 and a 67 in practice, took
a 78 on the opening round, four
more than the leaders, Louise
Suggs, Peggy Kirk and Marjorie
Lindsay. Men’s par for the 6,093-
yard Palma Ceia Course is 70;
woman's par 75.
For the first nine the Babe was
even with Miss Suggs and Miss
Kirk with 38, but she couldn’t
hold the pace. One under par on
each of the 10th and 11th holes,
she was one over on five of the
next six holes and wound up two
over on the 18th.
Miss Suggs plugged steadily
away for a 36 on the last nine and
Miss Kirk, not quite so steady but
sharp in the pinches, matched it.
Miss Lindsay, former Illinois
|women’s champion from Decatur,
'lll., had 37-37.
Louis Trains
For Ray Bout
MIAMI, Fla., Jan. 21—(AP)—
World’s heavyweight champion
Joe Louis arrives here today from
Chicago for a brief period of
training before meeting heavy
weight contender Elmer (Violent)
Ray in a six round exhibition bout
in the Orange Bowl Jan. 25.
The Brown Bomber has sched
uled four exhibitio nmatches in
Florida.
During his stay here he will
confer with Mike Jacobs, who
promoted all of Louis’ champion
ship fights. The exact subject of
their conference is not known, but
arrangements of ‘a June title
match in New York — and discus
sion of an opponent — probably
will be the main topic.

When she was nine she saw
Sonja Henie, and ever since she
has dreamed of the glamor of
that night. “Of course 1 was in
fluenced,” she said. “All little
girls dream of white boots and
beauty on ice.”
When she was 10 she entered
her first competition for the Jun
(ior Canadian championships. And
‘at 15 she was the lady skating
lchampion of Canada. She was 16
|when she won the North Ameri
ican championship in Madison
"ISquare Garden.
Miss Scott went to Europe in
11947 and won the European title.
{lnto her title bag, too, went. the
championship of the eastern and

[summer she won the Olympic
title. L
' In addition to her skating, Miss
‘Scott is a pilot and holds a stu

Free Throw
Should Count
Two--Hobson
NEW HAVEN, Conn., Jan, 21 —
(AP)—A national basketball au
thority suggested today the penal
ty for a foul be made more severe
—that its scoring value to the ag
grieved team be doubled from one
to two points. .
Howard Hobson of Yale is sure
the effect will tend to decrease the
number of fouls committed by the
players and called by the officials.
Hobson, past president of the
National College Basketball
Coaches Association, insists “the
player will think about it—and so
will the official before he blows
his whistle, if the conversion
counts two points.”
The way it is, says Hobson, the
percentage is with the team that
fouls.

Three Elberton Cage Teams
Invade Athens Gym Tonighi
All three of Athens High's basketball squads will be
seeking to add another victory to their records here to
night, when the local school plays host to Elberton High
in a hardwood triple-header. .
Elberton will be the first team
to engage the Trojans for the sec
ond time this season. All three
Athens aggregations triumphed
handily in the first meeting with
the Blue Devils, with the varsity
Trojans running up a 57-10 count
against the Devils in the Elberton
gym.
The Athens “Bees” raise the
curtain on things inm the local gym
nasium at 6:30 as they take the
floor against the Junior Blue Dev
ils. The much-improved Baby Tro
jans, now sporting a record of
seven wins and five losses, can al
ways be depended on to turn in a
good game.
Coach Mrs. Joe Barone’s Tro
janettes, losers in only two of their
eight contests tc date, will attempt
a second win over the Elberton
sextet in the 7:30 game.
Feaiure Game
The Trojan-Blue Devis varsity
tilt is scheduled to open at 8:30, or
very soon after, and will find the
local five shooting for their ele
venth win to offset three defeats.
Coach Arnold DeLaPerriere sent
the squad through an extensive
scrimmage yesterday afternoon in
preparation for the game tonight,
emphasizing offense. The drills
were highlighted by the bulls-eye
accuracy of Forwards Ted Short,
Frederick Leathers, and Don Sea
graves, superb under-the-basket
play by Center John Marshall, and
consistent defensive games by
Tommy Lovern and Warren Thur
mond. |
Reserves Bobby Moody, Carlton
Mell, Dickie Carteaux, Bill Comp
tor,, C. W. Marlow, Buddy Bowden,
Nelson Hitchcock, and Billy Cook
looked improved in most phases of
the game, and most of them are
likely to see some action tonight.
“Y” Plays Five
Week-end Tilts
Two Athens Y. M. C. A. basket
ball teams will take to the road
tonight with the Intermediates
playing the Hartwell High School
“B” team in that city and the Preps
meeting Braselton in Braselton.
Both games begin at 6:30 o’clock
and are preliminary tilts to other
games.
A full afternoon of court activi
ty is on tab for Sattirday at the
“Y” gym 'here with the Cubs,
Preps, and Midgets slated to meet
three teams from Dacula. This
will be one of the largest and
probably most exciting displays of
basketball action staged at the
“Y"” this season. The first tilt be
gins at 2 o’clock, and the public is
invited to attend the games.
LSU Dumps
‘Bama, 51 -44
BATON ROUGE, La., Jan. 21—
(AP) — The basketball Tigers of
LSU made it three out of four in
Southeastern Conference play last
night by defeating Alabama 51
to 44.
Three fast field goals by Dick
McKenzie, classy guagrd, gave Ala
bama an early lead, but LSU lost
little time in catehing up and the
score at the half was 24 to 22 in
the Tigers’ favor.
The half-time edge followed a
disputed goal by forward Bobby
Meador cf LSU. Meador dropped
in a fast goil just as the bell
sounded. At first it was ruled no
goal, but after a heated argument
the chief score allowed the mark
er, which gave the Tigers their
two-point lead.
- LSU was never headed in the
isecond half.
~ Rebel Steiner, Alabama for
‘'ward, topped the scorers with 15
\points, two ahead of Bobby Bog

Celebrates
57th Birthday
NEW YORK, Jan. 21—(AP)—
Basketball bounced past another
birthday last night without so
much as a timeout being called
to blow out the.candles.
It's now a big, gawky youncter
of 57,
The game was born Jan. 20,
1892. That’s when Dr., James A.
Naismith, physical director of Y.
M. C. A, College in Springfield,
Mass., hung up the peach baskets
and let the boys take aim.
As pastimes go, the sport
should still be an infant tugging
at its cradles bars. Instead, phe
nomenal growth has made it an
awesome giant.
Basketball is the world’s No. 1
spectator sport. Between 75,000,-
000 and 90,000,000 pay to watch
the games annually.
No other competitive sport
matches it in the number of
players. It is building back to its
pre-war peak when 20,000,000
throughout the world participated
and the rules were translated in
30 languages.
Wouldn’t Know It
Dr. Naismith, who died in 1939
in Lawrence, Kas., at the age of
79, would hardly recognize his
brainchild today.
From a slow, methodical con
test in which the athletes passed
and shot with ladylike grace, it
has evolved into a madcap, fire
engine affair with astronomical
scoring.
It has become highly commer
cialized. Major professional cir
cuits and minor money leagues
operate around the country.
The college teams play before
packed houses in such arenas as
New York’s Madison Square Gar
den, Philadelphia’s Convention
Hall, the Chicago Stadium and
San Francisco’s Cow Palace.
The first college game in 1897
was played in semi-privacy. Yale
defeated Pennsylvania, 32-10. To
day a star player counts it an off
night if he doesn’t personally
make almost as many points.
The first contests were played
with seven on a side, then nine
and later eight before finally get
.ting five.
Basketball was devised as a
gym sport for the middle aged
and the first rules were strict in
regard to bodily contact. As the
young stalwarts took over, the re
strictions were eased.
