Schissler at Oregon State College next year will prob- ably be content with a salary about $5000 less than that paid the stater's retiring football men- tor. Coach Schissler’s contract called for $8,000 a year, $5000 of this amount was paid by the student body and the remainder came from the college budget for work as athletic director. Indications are that the future coach will be relieved of the du- ties of athletic director along with the money set aside for that work. Harry Rogers, chairman of the school athletic board of control, announced at the time of Schlis- sler’s resignation recently that the school finances would demand a reduction in coaching salaries. A member of the board or high- er education also declared it de- sirable to recognize home talent by filling the coaching job from the ranks of Oregon State’s ath- letic department. P. C. L. HOME CLUBS TO SET OWN PRICES SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Jan. 25. The Pacific Coast baseball league probably will adopt a system of allowing each of the home clubs to set its own admission prices for games, rather than have the league adopt one regular price in 1933. Of course the visiting club will get a certain share of each admission taken in at the game. MUSSOLINI SEEKS GRID TEAM TOUR HARRISBURG, Pa. Jan. 25.— Premier Mussolini has .invited Joe Savoldi, formerly of Notre Dame, to bring a football team of Irish players and an Italian eleven to Francis Healy, young Giant catcher, is shown above with his younger brother, Bernie, one of his pupils on the St. Jerome High School cage team at Holyoke, Mass. Francis, formerly an all- around star at the school, is on the right. HOLYOKE, Mass, Jan. 25— Far be it from an amateur ob- server to say if rasslin’s a racket or a good clean sport, but it cer- tainly has qualities to keep its participanis young. | Take Fd Strangler Lewis. On second thought, perhaps, you had better not take him without some preliminary preparation. 1 Recently the old Strangler was said to be all washed up, finished, ready for the wrestling discard. It was a matter of record that he was 41 years old and had been moving with more or less speed across assorted mats in every sec- tion of the United States for 21 years. Now the famous Kentuckian secems to boast the physical condi- tion of a young fellow in his early 30’s, trying to get along and in a fair way to do just that. He says Heinie Groh has admitted a manager. Cincinnati Reds. CINCINNATI, O, Jan. 25 — with pride that his mental condis tion is just as good as the physs ical. ! It was not so long ago that some’ of the exper on rasslin' ruled that the giant Lewis was null and void in a mat w bad legs, bad eyes and no hope of regaining his$ former condition. il i Players who were stars in base- ball's good old days would like to make comebacks as managers. Hans (“Honus"”) Wagner, now running a sporting goods store in Pittsburgh, with “Poe” Traynor as a partner, was one of those who sought the job of managing the Cincinnati Reds. But Donie Bush, of 'a younger school, got the job. Now Heinie Groh, called by Francis Healy, the young man who‘JAPAN NAMES will fight it out with Gus Man-| cuso for the first string back- stopping job with the New York Giants next spring, is spending the offseason coaching the basketball team of St. Jerome high school here. Healy was an all-around athletic star for St. Jerome before going to the Giants on the recommen- dation of “Smiling Mickey” Welch, an old-time Giant hero. His pres- ent quintet has bright prospects in the Parochial League. One of Healy’s pupils is his brother, Bernie, a crack forward. Coaching and playing with the boys is putting Healy into top shape for the approaching base- ball season, assuring him a head start over all rivals for the No. 1 catching berth with thé Giants.| Prospects are he will divide duty " TENNIS TEAM TOKYO, Jan. 25—The Japan {Lawn Tennis Association today lannounced the selection of Jiro Satoh; Ryosuke Numi, Japanese ,champion; Eikichi Tto and Ryuku Miki as its Davis cup team.

Basketball drew 580 of them, of the few in which John Mc- Graw was outsmarted. Joe Tin- ker did the trick in 1913, during a year’s stand as manager of the Reds. Joe shipped Art Fromme to New York in exchange for Groh, Leon Ames and Josh Devore. McGraw had seen Fromme pitch some of the few good games of his career. Impressed, he swapped, but found his expectations fruit- less, While Groh became a world |beater, Ames proved to be a faith- ful standby for the Cincinnati pitching staff, and Devore went to the Phillies for $5,000. “NORTH SIDE” OF ' FT. WORTH OWNS SPORTS RECORD FORT WORTH, Tex., Jan. 25.— If it's true that athletes “just naturally grow” in certain com- munities, Fort Worth's “north side” would like to advance its claims as one of those spots. ‘Within the past decade or two, it has given to the American sport- ing scene the following among others: Madison Bell, former coach of the Haskell Indians, now coach at Texas A. & M. College. Pete Donohue, major league pit- cher. A. N. (Bo) McMillin, all-America quarterback at Centre College and now coach at Kansas State Col- lege. Otto (Tex.)

The Missions collide with the Cubs March 22, 23 and 24 and the White Sox March 25, 26 and 27. The Pacific Coast League season will open April 7. | Fans today still were talking about the determination of the Seals to abandon a spring train- ing trip and do all the prepara- tions at their park here. The Missions probably will go to Woodland, the scene of their 1932 spring training. CLEVELAND GETS EAST BALL ACE CLEVELAND, O., Jan. 25.—For- est Twogood, former Iowa Univer- sity star all-around athlete, who was purchased by Cleveland from ,Toledo, where he won ten and lost 'six, is said to have a wonderful fast ball. | As Cleveland is shy on south- paws, it is a cinch that the Iowa boy will receive a most thorough trial before May 15. Twogood keeps in shape in the winter time by coaching basket- ball and freshman baseball at the University of Southern California. e Eddie Flynn, former Olympic and National A. A.
