By the Associated Press. T. LOUIS, January 20—In the old days when the University of Chicago had crack foot teams, Stagg feared Purdue Now that the St. Louis Cardinals are | world champions, Branch Rickey fears practically the whole National League. Unwilling to be beaten even in the | matter of bear stories, the Card busi- ness manager, who has won a reputa- tion for judging base ball talent, as-| sumed a worried expression when & reporter visited his office. I'm sincere about it “There are aspects about the coming on that worry me no little New York, of course, is the club I fear most.” However, Rickey contends that veral” other clubs must be classified ‘dangerous, potential pennant win- unmask Rogers v right here and now,” Rickey ed, “Hornsby is spreading propaganda designed to create the im- pression, especially in Chicago, that the v chance to finish first belief. “I might as well his true taff is going to win a pennant.” there are the Dodgers. “With y developing speed and a k, they may have to be with clear to the finish" d a gloomy outlook for the s Rickey describes it.

TORONTO, Ontario, January 29 (#) —Western Racing Association, Ltd., which operates Devonshire Park race course at Windsor, Ontarlo, has been adjudged bankrupt, The Trust and Guarantee Company, Ltd, has been appointed custodian of the Racing Association’s estate. Basket Ball Tips Herc's a clever bit of basket ball strategy that the Minnesota Gophers are using in their Conference bat- tles: Right guard (5) has the ball on a floor play. He shoots 't ahead to right forward (3) as the latter breaks toward him. No 5 rushes at full speed sround 3 and the latter pivots as though to hand him the ball. Instead, he makes a back- hand pass to his center (1). Just as 3 fakes this pass to 5, left guard (4) cuts down the opposite sideiine for the basket. Al the same moment, left forward (2) swings back to block off 4's op- ponent. This move brings 4 into the open space at the left of the basket, just as 1 receives the back- handed pass from 3. So 1 relays the ball to 4 for a close-up shot. (Copyright, 1932.) High Ind. Game. Purdy . 106 142 165 .136 135 124 League. A. G. O. Women's Agricultural .. Automotive . Commercial . Lyons .
