St. Louis, Dec. 28—(P)—New per- sonalities, full of attraction for fans, ‘will be seen in the 1932 lineup of the world champion St. Louis Cardinals. Chief among the additions are Hack ‘Wilson, former Cub fence-buster, and Dizzy Dean, eccentric mound star. ‘Wilson always has been a drawing card. Hack is confident he can re- gain his lost batting prestige and he blames his 1931 debacle on “manager trouble.” Dean, who admits “I might be dizzy off the ball field but I’m not dizzy out there on the mound,” turn- ed in 26 victories for the Houston Buffaloes last season with an earned run average of 1.53 per nine innings. Eleven of his victories were shutouts. Other newcomers will includ Lee Cunningham, third baseman from Danville, Tll.; Pat Crawford, Colum- ‘pus first-sacker who led the American Association last season in homers and runs batted in; Eddie Delker, infielder with Rochester last year; Joel Hunt, fleet-footed Columbus outfielder; Tex Carleton, Houston hurler, who won CHRISTMAS FUMIGATORS ELSE “HE MEN ARE GINNING UP SMOKING ! du) Nae wa.v. 8. ©1931 BY NEA SERVICE, IC, ROPES IN HERE? his last 13 starts in the 1931 season; Ray Starr, rangy pitcher coming up from Rochester; and Bud Teachout, southpaw moundsman obtained from Chicago in the Grimes-Wilson deal. ‘With the exception of Grimes and Andy High, utility third baseman, and Wally Roettger, outfielder sold to Cincinnati, the 1931 Cardinal squad bids fair to report in force for the coming season.

In point of effectiveness, the three leaders in the older circuit all are southpaws—Bill Walker and Carl Hubell of the New York Giants and Ed Brandt of the Boston Braves.

The coach has ‘been under fire since the close of the football season. A subcommittee has been working on plans for a reorganization of the athletic department but Prof. Pyre ‘was unable to say whether it will be ready to report Monday night. Be- cause of a need for economy, the sub- committee is expected to recommend either the football or basketball coach take over the duties of athletic direc- tor. In this connection the name of Dr. Walter E. Meanwell, basketball coach, has been mentioned as the next director of athletics. ‘Meanwell was the director of ath- Yetics at the University’of Missouri several years ago and was recently ‘quoted as saying he is not adverse to director here in addition to carrying on his duties as coach, Southerners Stake Hopes on Sandbags Clarksdale, Miss, Dec. 28.—()—The Expected to Accept Resignation of Little as Athletic ’ Director Madison, Wis., Dec. 28.()—Conven- ing in special session, the University of Wisconsin athletic council was ex- pected to accept the resignation of George Little, director of athletics, Monday night. and 8 defeats.

CHICAGO CARD CALLED OFF |Jacobs Plans to Open Negotia- tions With Manassa Mauler in May New York, Dec, 28.—()—Max Schmeling plans two defenses of his heavyweight championship this year, the first, definitely, against Mickey Walker in Miami in February; the second, tentatively, against either Jack Dempsey or Jack Sharkey in June or September. And the promo- ter in each case will be Madison Square Garden. Articles for the Miami match will be signed either Tuesday or Wednes- day, says Joe Jacobs, manager of Schmeling. They will call for a 15- round bout the last week in February. The exact date will be fixed later. Arrangements for the second match necessarily will have to await the outcome of the battle of Miami, Ja- cobs and the Garden, however, plan to open negotiations with Dempsey around May 1, proposing @ match in June. If Dempsey asks for a little more time in which to get into condi- tion the match will be held over un- til September. If all efforts to get Dempsey into line should fail then Schmeling plans to give Sharkey a “shot” at the title.
