The new managers, all notable ajor league, performers in their day, are Mel Ott at Oakland, Rogers | Hornsby at Seattle Joe Gordon at Sacramento and Stan Hack at Los Angeles. A. B.

That was decided yesterday when the presidents of Manhattan, New York University and St. John's uni- { versity announced “it is our firm conviction that college basketball can be played in the Garden with- out our student-players succumbing to corruption as disclosed in the re- cent scandal.” The college heads, in a joint state- ment, declared that the idea that “Madison Square Garden is respon- sible for the present status of inter- collegiate basketball in metropoli- tan New York, and that the col- lege gymnasium is a panacea for this evi] is a myth. “In spite of the college corrup- tion, in spite even of education per- meated with ehtical, cultural and religious principles, it is still pos- sible to have corruption, if the in- dividual does not exercise courag- eously the powers of his own person- ality.” The statement was issued after a meeting of the Very Rev. John A. Flynn, C. M. president of St. John’s; Brother Bonaventure Thomas, F. S. C., president of Manhattan; and James M. Madden, acting chancel- lor at New York university, with Brig. Gen. John Reed Kilpatrick, president of the Garden, and Ber- nard Gimbel, who represented the Garden Board of Directors. | ; "Stinking Situation” Discussed MINNEAPOLIS, March 27 —(®— Fully aware that they can’t do the EEA S T tmm.:x;‘s@ffx, _FOR CORRUPTION, | GAMES OF SPORTS WASHINGTON, March 27 —(#— Senator William Fulbright (D-Ark) has accused the colleges of currupt- ing their “hired” athletes and stu- dent bodies with “the cynical, 1m moral doctrine that one must win at any cost.” | He criticized the schools and their alumni alike, showering on them blame for the recent college basketball scandals centered in New York.

In his passionately stated indict- ment of public morals, Fulbright included the nation’s athletics- minded colleges and universities, blaming the “cynical, immoral doc= trine that one must win at all costs” for scandals such as bribing of basketball players. 4 Fulbright said investigation after investigation has shown up evil that is. “beyond the reach of the law.” Now, he added, it is time to seek remedies. He renewed a demand that Con- gress turn to “private citizens of outstanding character and achieve- ment, whose integrity is beyond re- proach,” for the answers.
