6 Frankie ST, LOUIS CAPTAIN Frisch THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 21. 1931 Called Most Valuable Player in National League SELECTED BY GROUP OF SPORTS WRITERS Chuck Klein, Phillie Outtielder,| Is Second Choice With 55 Points | POLL IS UNOFFICIAL Bill Terry, First Baseman With Giants, Runs Close Third eee New York, Oct. 21—(?)}—The Na- tional League's “most valuable play- er” for 1931 is Frankie Frisch, captain and second baseman of the St. Louis Cardinals, champions of the world. Frisch received 65 points out of a maximum of 80 in the vote of a com- ‘mittee of baseball writers to win the} ° award by ten points from Chuck Klein, Phillies’ outfielder, with Bill ‘Terry, first baseman of the New York Giants a close third with 53. Officially the practice of naming annually the “most valuable player” was dropped in 1929 by the National Teague. In 1930, Hack Wilson of the Chicago Cubs was elected by an un- official poll conducted by the Associ- ated Press and the Cubs recognized the award by handing Wiling Wilson the customary $1,000. This year the poll. was conducted, unofficially again, by the Baseball Writers’ Asso- ciation of America of which William J. Slocum of New York is president. In the eight years that @ most val- uable player has been selected in the Heydler loop, St. Louis players have been adjudged the winners four times. Frisch has been a contender for the honor thrice previously. GABBY STREET ELATED BY HONOR TO FRISCH Jopli Mo., Oct. 21—(?)—Charles “Gabby” Street said today he was “mighty proud and happy” that Frankie Frisch had been selected as the National League's most valuable player for 1931. “Frankie is a great player,” the Cardinal manager said. gies Brush Up en Defenses Preparing for the Second Con-} ference Game; Jackrabbits Are Opponents — Fargo, N. D., Oct. 21—(P)—The for- ward pass got attention from both sides of the line of scrimmage in: North Dakota Agricultural college football camp where Casey Finnegan ‘and Bob Lowe are getting their Bison charges ready for their second North, Central conference contast against the South Dakota State Jackrabbits here Saturday. The Bison tutors gave particular attention to Paul Bunt, George Fair- fhead and Johnny Fisher on the! throwing end of the offense. Viv ‘McKay and Milton Jacobson, backs, were tutored in receiving. Cy Lons- brought, also got the attention of the coaches. ‘The secondary defense was given & ong drill against the pass. "The offensive pass attack of the ‘Bison was satisfactory to the coaches ‘but the defense against an overhead attack still has not come up to stand- ard. Bunt, Fisher and Fairhead tossed their passes accurately and the receiving was far better than in the ‘Morningside game when receivers dropped the ball no less than four times. Finnegan anticipates an aerial at-| tack when the Jackrabbits come here} for the annual homecoming encoun- ter. ‘The Bison freshman team was) drilled well into darkness Monday in} preparation for its second meeting; of the season with the University of) North Dakota yearlings on Dacotah Field at 8 p. m. Friday. Sanction Refused | On Carnera Fight New York Commission Says Uzcudun Not Big Enough to Meet Italian New York, Oct. 21—(P)—The New York State Athletic commission has turned thumbs down on a_heavy- weight bout between Primo Carnera and Paulino Uzcudun on the grounds it would be a “step-ladder” match. Listen to William Muldoon on the subject: “In the future we will insist that the heavy matched phy n other respects. Carnera should fight men his own size like Victorio Cam- ‘polo, Arthur De Kuh, and Jose San- ta, we don’t want any more step- Jadder matches, where one of the I was against the, Walker-Sharkey match for that mat- ter and only approved it against. my better judgment.” Carnera and Uzcudun were matched for a ten rounder at Madison Square Garden Nov. 13 for a theatrical emamty sponsored by Daniel Froh- man. Uzcudun, despite his lack of height, gave Primo a close battle ago. WAHPETON MAN WINS Fargo, N.

Oct, 21 —(P)—j Willie Heston, Jr., who wishes some- ; times his name were Smith, is said by his friends to have given up football.’ Willie Heston has been a name to; conjure with at Michigan since a stal- wart of that name plunged his way | into the headlines and onto Walter Camp's All-American football team a! quarter of a century ago. A lot of fans joined Willie, Sr., in hoping Willie, Jr., (they call him Bill) would carve the name anew on the; football annals of this generation. Bill came to Michigan in 1929 after @ much published prep-school grid- iron career in Detroit and at Manlius academy, New York State. This year he was assigned to the “B” squad. When he didn’t appear| {for practice this week, someone asked | him why. He said he needed the time for his studies. He expects to gradu- | ate in June. His friends believe the responsibill- ties his name carried have ruined! whatever chances he had to become a football star because coaches and‘ fans expected too much of him. Some | remarks he made a few years ago during his prep-schocl days. would) indicate he agrees with them. i “I play halfback, the same position ; \dad played, but that’s as far as the resemblance goes,” he said then. “When they give me the ball they ex- pect a touchdown every time, just be- i ‘weight boxing championship, is now ‘oxing in the heavyweight division.

It's great} ly rile | Washington state semi-pro basebail; shown here with his new automo- used to make touchdowns, but it would be a lot easier if my name was Smith.” Jack Heston, a sophomore brother, still is a varsity halfback—a hard plunging, fast stepping runner and capable punter who may yet retrieve the Heston football fortunes. Players Are Eligible Forks Coach Asserts) Grand Forks, N. D., Oct. 21—W—| Ed Bohnhoff, football coach at Grand Yorks Central High school, said he had heard nothing of a rumored pro- test by Fargo on Central's 13 to 7 victory there October 10. Both Ber- nard Rostberg, regular guard, and Ben Blanchette, captain and fullback, whose cligibilities are in question, are under the age limit for high school competition, Bohnhoff asserted. Birth certificates of both men have been leoked at by Central High School authorities, he said. HOT STUFF Seattle, Wash.—Police, two of them, overheard a telephone conversation in-a downtown hotel.

Meenan, one of Hanley’s prize backfield aces, was badly crushed in a scrimmage Tuesday night and it: was extremely doubtful whether he would be able to start in the all-im- portant game against the Buckeyes ‘at Columbus Saturday. The muscles in his left side were torn and he breathed with great difficulty. The extent of his injuries may not be known for two days but Coach Hanley was worried and rightly so as Meenan’s loss would rob him of one of the best ground gainers of 1931 football. Meenan’s injury spoiled one of the ‘best drills of the season in the Wild- cat camp last night. “Pug” Rentner, his star passer, and Ollie Olson, his best punter, returned after a few days on the injured list. Coach Sam Willaman and his Ohio State team were busy throwing up a defense for the Wildcats. Smarting under criticism for their showing against Ohio State last week, Michigan’s Wolverines were in a dan- ‘Wisconsin game, Coach Noble Kizer was busy making shifts in his Purdue Uneup for the Carnegie Tech game. ‘Wisconsin, too, had bruises to mend so Coach Thistlethwaite drilled his reserves for the Pennsylvania inva- sion. All the Badger regulars were expected to start in the Penn game, however. Minnesota easedup on its training for fear of injuries while Iowe drilled on_ blocking. There was considerable activity in the Chicago and Indiana camps sole- ly for the reason two coaches want that game Saturday. Charles Lappenbusch, a tackle on the University of Washington foot- ball team last year, is helping coach at the school this season.

It will be the second engagement between the two teams, Flasher hay- ing battled the locals to a scoreless tie Oct. 9. The Imps have rounded off a week of strenuous practice in preparation for the contest under the direction of A. C. Van Wyck, their mentor, and have shown considerable progress. Flasher boasts a scrappy team that is slated to give the Imps a battle. While Van Wyck has not, announced what players would start, it was ex- pected that the following players would get the starting berths: Bey- lund and Benser, ends; Engen and Lawyer, tackles; Welliver and Weis- enberger, guards; McCroirie, center; Sorsdahl and Neff, halfbacks; Lee, quarterback; and Brauer, fullback.
