LEAGUE MAKES MANY RECORDS, 1336 Broke Twenty-four, Tied Fourteen—Seven Club Marks Shattered CHICAGO, 111, Dec. 30—The base- ball campaign of 1936 will go down in history as the American League’s greatest in either breaking or tying previous records. American Leaguers, in '36, broke twenty-four and tied fourteen major league marks. They set twenty-six and tied eleven American League | records. The New York Yankees| broke sixteen and tied eight world series records. In addition, seven | club marks were shattered. Starring in the creation of either Major or American League records were Lou Gehrig, the “Iron Horse"| of the Yankees; his team mates, Joe Di Maggio and Tony Lazzeri; Rob- ert Grove, the great southpaw of the Boston Red Sox; Bob Feller, the| seventeen-year-old pitcher of the| Cleveland Indiens; Frank Hayes, youthful catcher of the Philadelphia | Athletics; Luke Appling, champion batsman of the League; Lewell Dean | of the Athletics, and Ed Coleman and James Bottomley of the St.!

He neither brags, nor alibis, |in vietory or defeat. | On occasions the utter silence of the Scot has aroused the ire of the opposition and brought accusations to the effect Sutherland is a ma- chine with no ideals and no pas- sicn for the game “for sport’s sake.” | Sutherland was born in Scotland. | Big and b , he became a great guard at Pitt under Warner and his assistant, Joe Duff. In four years at college, Sutherland played in only | one losing game. He graduated with a degree of doctor of dental surgery, served overseas during the World War and began his coaching career lat Lafayette College. After five years there he succeeded Warner at Pitt. | The Pitt campus regards him as (an institution.

In the spring, we usually have more than 150. It does a boy good just to run around the field and associate with his school’s representatives, even if he never gets in a game. ‘And I think a football player is one of the best representa- tives that a school can have.” Next year, his team probably will be more powerful than the 1936 Rose Bowl outfit. Most of his aces will be back, including the irresistible Sophomore ball-carrier, Marshall Goldberg, and the greater part of the impregnable line that turned back all opponents except Duquesne and got a tie with Fordham'’s gran- ite wall.” Dr. Sutherland met criticism from the West and South over selection of Pitt to play against Washington with the usual answer—silence. But Don Harrison director of ath- ; letics, probably spoke the veteran's i 1 when he said: he Pitt team will give the an- swer to that on New Year's Day.” e, T.
