GRID TICKETS ON INSTALLMENT PLAN
The University of Tulsa has launched something new and
seemingly popular in its pre-season sales of football tickets.
Hurricane officials arc bidding for increased attendance at home
games next fall by offering season tickets on the installment
plan— "$2 down, six months to pay balance, and no carrying
charge.”
Dr. Edward Small, athletic director of the school, said, “I believe
it is high time something be done to spur the sale of season tickets.
Some of the fans themselves suggested it might help if we offered
the tickets for a little down and payments until Sept. 1.”
Five thousand tickets, ranging in price from $13.50 to $21 for
seven home games, have been set aside for the sale. An additional
1,000 ducats at $9.75 have been made available to children.
We believe the Tulsa innovation has definite possibilities, espe-
cially for Southwest conference schools where single game football
tickets sell for $3.60._ Thousands of grid fans would probably take
advantage of such an offer in the Southwest each year to avail
themselves of the season tickets.

There would be as many foot-

cut off, and the competition
would be just as good, but there
wouldn’t be as much to write
about. However, you’d have bet-

50-yard line.

Some may be so unkind as to
say that Austin college the past j
few years has been on an ama-
teur basis anyway, if you look
over its football record. But that
really isn’t the point.
Austin college has been losing
money on football in gobs. Dr.
W. B. Guerrant, president of the
college, says other small schools
like Austin also are dropping
cash on football and he wouldn’t
be surprised if most of the big
colleges aren’t doing the same
thing.

MESA, Ariz., March 27 (AP) —
If the Chicago White Sox are
going anywhere this baseball
season they’ll do it in haste.
Last year Manager Paul Rich-
ards came up with Minnie Mino-
so, who led the league in stolen
bases with 31. Then there was
Jim Busby who was runner-up
in the circuit with 26.
Now another speeaster seems
to have won a job with the Sox.
He’s Hector- Rodriguez, the Cu-
ban third sacker who led the In-
ternational league in ;
bases in 1951 with 26.
Another whiz w n o
the strictly ‘amateur’ athlete to
do it.”
He means the kind of football
your correspondent knew —
eight games in October and No-
vember with friends and rela-
tives coming out to see the
games but with no red ink nec-
essary on the school budget.
Dr. Guerrant says he has
heard from one college that fa-
vors the plan. He hasn’t named
that school. In fact, Austin col-
lege doesn’t propose to form the
“amateur” league until a couple
of years from now — if enough
colleges come in to make it pos-
sible.
He also says he finds many of
the athletes favor the plan.
“Under the present system of
athletic scholarships, there is
no such thing as a basis of
need,” Dr. Guerrant declares.
“The rich man’s son gets a schol-
arship if he’s a star football
player the same as the boy who
actually needs the aid to go to
school.”
And the poor boy who is ca-
pable of playing football in an
amateur league but isn’t good
enough for high-pressure foot-
ball of today, doesn’t get the
aid. And the boys who aren’t top
gridders don’t even get to come

SEATTLE, March 27 (/P) 1—
Basketball’s rules doctors will
operate today on late - game
stalling and cheap fouls — and
in the opinion of most coaches
who watched a trial run last
night it should be major sur-
gery.
It seemed certain that the
rules body — the National Bas-
ketball committee of the United
States and Canada—would come
up with something along the
line of last night’s experiment
in the Illinois-Santa Clara con-
solation game at the NCAA
championships, won by the 11-
lini, 67-64.
Briefly, here were the changes
tried:
1. All foul shots had to be
taken. Present rules permit a
fouled team to take the bailout
of bounds and retain possession,
instead of shooting,
2. A second shot was awarded
when the first was missed on any

reason I flunked out with the
Brooklyn Dodgers three times in
their spring training camps. One
look at me, and I was dropped
like a hot stove lid.”

3. In the final three minutes,
every foul was considered in-
tentional and worth two shots.
The ball remained in play if
the last foul shot was- missed. It
went to the opposing team , if
the toss was made.
Howard Hobson, Yale coach,
had this to say:
“It certainly didn’t hurt the
game and made it faster, with
a better finish. There was the
same ball hawking. In my opin-
ion the trial was very success-
ful.”
Harry A. Combes, coach of the
Big Ten champs from Illinois,
called the changes “very fine.”
“They had a lot of merit from
the spectators’ standpoint and
took the ’ pressure off the offi-
cials. We experimented with the
same rule in the Big Ten two
years ago and liked it,” he added.
Bill Morris, assistant coach at
Washington, thought the revision
was well balanced because
“forced shooting of all free
throws gives the team behind a
chance to catch up, while two
shots on all fouls in the final
three minutes also helps a team
deliberately fouled.”
The major dissenter was Santa
Clara’s coach, Bobbie Feerick,
who thought the idea would in-
crease, rather than curtail, stall-
ing. He said a team ahead, know-
ing it would get two shots in
the closing minutes, would in-
vite fouls by hanging onto the
ball. That’s what his team tried
to do, and failed, with the score
5.8-58 at the three-minute mark.
The crowd watching the Illi-
nois-Santa Clara encounter did
not seem to notice that free
throws could not be waived.
None of the coaches questioned
made any mention of this phase
of the experimental rule change.
However, the National Asso-
ciation of Basketball Coaches
went resoundingly on record,
45-5, yesterday in favor of ban-
ning the waiver of foul shots.
They sent this recommendation
along to the National Rules
committee, along with several
others in the same vein as those
tried last night.

Austin college now has two of
the outstanding big-time coaches
of the country. But one of them
won’t do any coaching and the
other is a backer of the “ama-
teur” plan where by the college
would cut out aid to athletes
and make it a matter for the
“students.”
Henry Frnka is going to Aus-
tin college as vice-president in
charge of promotion, to wit:
raising money and endowments,
et cetera. Frnka coached at Van-
derbilt, Temple, Tulsa and Tu-
lane. He was a better than a
fair hand at getting the top ath-
letes and winning bowl games
and championships.
Already at Austin college is
Ray Morrison, the man who
started Southern Methodist to
fame in football and who
coached at Vanderbilt and Tem-
ple before quitting the big-time
to coach and direct athletics at
the Sherman college. He got
tired of the pressure.
Now Morrison is a backer of
the Austin college “amateur”
plan which consists of getting
other colleges interested in a
conference that bans athletic
scholarships.
Johnny Logan and Sibby Sisti.
Behind them are Leo Righetti on
short with Harry Hanebrink on
second. Hanebrink is a left-
handed batter and I liked him at
Hartford where he hit .309. Di-
ghetti is good field no hit. John
Dittmer is also getting a
thorough trial lon second and he
might be the best hitter of the
lot. He hit .334 at Atlanta and
drove in 105 runs.
“Earl Torgenson is being given
a fight for first base by George
Crowe, the tall Negro lad who
hit .339 at Milwaukee, batted in
119 runs and hit 24 homers. If
we bring Crowe up and Torgy
returns to his old form, don’t be
surprised if Crowe plays the out-
field.”
Homes is going to try every
possible combination in the hopes
of regaining patronage for the
Braves and a long-term contract
for himself.
“Boy,” Tommy enthuses,- “I
could play a team of eight left-
handed hitters with Crowe in the
outfield and Ebba St. Claire
catching. He’s good enough to
be No. 1 but Walker Cooper will
be back. Forget those trade ru-
mors. Coop played great ball for
us last year. But with St. Claire
Yankees know. Noren’s history
“and they still want him. So do
I. That’s why a deal wasn’t
made last month.”

the T&O league, announced today that Bill Perrin, former Big State
league hurler for Gainesville, has agreed to serve as playing mana-
ger of the local team.
Though many prospective candidates for the club have
turned out for drills during the past week, there is still a dire
shortage of experienced diamond performers. Reed said that
several former college baseball players were believed to be sta-
tioned here permanently with seismograph crews and it was
hoped that these men would join the Owls.
Preliminary plans for the organization of the team s roster call
for the line-up to be split between amateurs and professionals, if
enough of the latter are available in this area. However, any play-

pate in the workouts each afternoon at Locke field.

The Dallas Hornets came from
behind in the last three minutes
to upset Rocky Mountain Tile of
Denver, Clo., 33-31.
Jackson was in control all the

and Gordon could wind up as
Holmes' third baseman. Bob
Elliott, once Mr. Team, has
slowed down and his place is up
^r grabs.
No. 1 rookie for the job is
Ed Mathews who, they say, has
as much power as Babe Ruth
and Ted Williams. “He drove in
106 runs and hit 32 homes for
Atlanta in 1950 and I’ve got to
go along with a boy like that. He
can fly. He’s only 20,” says
Holmes.
Mathews was signed by the
Braves in 1949 the night he was
graduated from high school
while close to a dozen scouts sat
in a hotel lobby. Ed spent much
of 1951 in the navy but managed
to hit .289 in 37 games for At-
lanta and .333 in 12 games for
Milwaukee. In back of him, the
Braves have- Bill Klaus, rated
another Billy Cox in the field at
23. He hit .285 at Milwaukee.
Both Mathews and Klaus are
left-handed batters.

my trouble spots,” says Holmes.
