Scott's drawing power never has ticular desire to turn handsprings, but the Cowboy’s courageous but losing stand against Joe Rivers here on the turnstiles when the trans- planted Texan crawls through the ropes to face the rather handsome Having skidded from third to ninth ranking among the world’s light- weights in recent months due to & to Chino Alvarez and Rivers in his last three starts, Scott now is seeking to regain a measure of his vanishing D.

Mascia Two-Fisted Fighter. ASCIA looms as a serious obstacle in Scott’s path to more moneyed matches. A graduate of the Golden Gloves tourney in New York, Pete hails from a tough Brooklyn sector where fighting is as essential as eating. His two-fisted style of swinging makes for an excellent match against Scott, who is & polished counter-puncher. Many ring worms feel Scott will be an improved battler following his loss to Rivers, pointing out that Howard now knows he can be floored and yet come back and hand out a deadly fusillade of mittens. Rivers dropped Scott for a nine count at the end of the second round, but the Cowboy launched a counter attack in the fifth frame that nearly floored his Mexican rival. Rivers apparently has no desire to face Scott again, having asked Match- maker Goldie Ahearn for a $500 guar- antee, which is considered prohibitive by Ahearn. Goldie still is seeking a rematch, however, hoping that Scott and Rivers will duplicate one of the most hectic brawls of the season. Pete Has Fought Good Ones. hlASCIA has shown to best advan- tage against the world's most highly regarded lightweights, He has lost close decisions to Lou Ambers, ruler of the 135-pound division; Al Roth and Pedro Montanez. Montanez and Mascia drew a $22,000 gate at Dykeman's Oval, New York, when Pete cut Pedro's eye so severely that Mon- tanez was forced on the shelf for several weeks. Pete has trimmed Leonard Del Genlo and Eddie Brink twice and only two weeks ago smashed Lew Feldman to the canvas twice in winning a decision. He has beaten Jose Santos, Frankie Hogan, Joe Doherty and many others of lesser note. Four six-round preliminaries will feature a pair of newcomers in Mike Danner, a Baltimore light heavyweight, who will stak up against Buddy Scott, local larruper, and Country Boy Bag- gett, Tennessee 175-pounder, who will clash with Rusty (Canvasback) Baker | of Baltimore. Other encounters list Joey Straigis, promising Camden lightweight, bat- tling Jimmy Tramberia of Baltimore and Vincent Solther, Baltimore light- weight, fighting Al Narcisco of Cam- den. Action will get under way at 8:30 o'clock. CLEMSON IS TOPPED BY KENTUCKY, 7 T0 6 Fights to Get 87 Yards, Score With Two Passes Following Wildeats’ Tally. BY the Associated Press. EXINGTON, Ky., November 14— By the slimmest of margins, 7 to | 6. the Kentucky Wildcats defeated the | Clemson College Tigers here today in one of the hardest-fought games ever seen on Stoll Field. Kentucky chalked up its lone marker in the second period and was hard- pressed from then on. Clemson tallied late in the fourth quarter on a drive that started on the Tigers' 4-yard line and saw two mighty forward passes net 87 yards for the Southern Conference eleven. Kentucky's touchdown drive started midway in the second quarter when Bob Davis, fleet halfback, intercepted a Clemson pass on his 1-yard line and ran to midfield before being dropped by Berry, Clemson quarter- back. Four successive plunges by Bert Johnson, Kentucky halfback, picked up 12 yards, and a pass from Johnson to Davis was good for 32 to the Clemson 6. On the next play Johnson plunged over and Simpson place- kicked what proved the winning point.

Generals Urging Graham Plan Ban LEX!NGTON‘ Va., November 14 (#)—Declaring the Graham plan governing the eligibility of Southern Conference athletes is “unworkable, too complex and too full of loop-holes to be enforced,” the Ring Tum Phi, student publi- cation of Washington and Lee University, called today for re- pudiation of the plan. As a substitute for what the paper describes as “admirable in principle,” the paper suggested & “C" scholastic average as the | bulwark of eligibility. “Such a plan,” the paper held, “will eliminate the tramp athlete and the professional foot ball | player,” as well as those men who | are ‘“enrolled primarily for the sake of athletics.” AGTIONIS DELAYED ONBRADDOCKTILT Taylor Confident Contest | With Louis Will Be Ali Set This Week. BY the Associated Press. EW YORK, November 14— There was a.decided lull to-| day in the frenzied negotia- tions to match James J. Brad- dock and Joe Louis in a mo-decision contest in Atlantic City next Febru- After announcing from the New Jersey resort that the match was 991, per cent settled, Herman (Muggsy) Taylor, the promoter, re- turned to Philadelphia confident everything will be signed, sealed and delivered early next week. ‘While Taylor was counting out the | $100,000 he says he will pay Brad- dock for the champion’s signature, the other principals in the venture turned to rest and relaxation. Mike Jacobs of the Twentieth Cen- tury Sporting Club, who has Louis under contract, went to Red Bank, N. J, for a week end among his tulips. Kilpatrick Points to Contract. JOE GOULD, Braddock’s manager, after waiting all morning for a message of some sort from Taylor, spent the afternoon on the golf course, Col. John Reed Kilpatrick, presi- dent of Madison Square Garden, which has Braddock under contract to fight Max Schmeling for the heavy- weight title next June, went to the Yale-Princeton foot ball game. Taylor said last night he planned to come here today to talk with Kilpatrick with a view to clearing away any legal obstacles, but the Gar- den head said it was news to him. “I am not paying much attention to talk about an Atlantic City fight,” he said. “We have Braddock under contract for the first defense of his title. If Louis and Braddock fight anything but an exhibition match, Braddock will be risking his title and that will be & breach of our con- tract.” — RALLIES TO GAIN TIE.

Little Change in Nationals’ Cast of 1936 Is Seen Unless Boss Griffith Goes to Mart BY FRANCIS E. STAN. ball firm markets heavily at the trading counters U Winter the Nationals will go South next February with virtually the same cast of characters that fin- ished so close to second place and yet more than 20 games behind the pennant-winning Yankees. Drawing up a tentative list of athletes siated to accompany Manager Bucky Harris to Florida, Owner Clark Griffith yes- terday disclosed that the smallest and, possibly, the greenest band of recruits of recent years will compose the van- guard. Of the dubious lot of rookie pitchers, Dick Lanahan and Ray Phebus will stand out and a year ago Lanahan was deemed not good enough for the Nationals while Phebus, in Detroit's Spring training camp at that time, also was cut loose. Lanahan did all his pitching last season with Chatta- nooga of the Southern Association but failed to finish the campaign | because of an arm aiiment. Phebus went from the Tigers' training camp to Albany and then to Washington, where he wound up the 1936 season. Kendall Chase, & southpaw who got a trial with the Nationals in Oriando last Spring, will return, as will Joe Krakauskas. The only other rookie pitcher slated to be taken to training camp will be Harry Kelley (no rel tion to the A's Kelley). The Griffs' Kelley is from Albany. Early Is Up too Soon. NLY one rookle catcher is to be carried to camp and he is a young- ster whose first name is unknown to the Washington club front office and whose ability is admitted to be not up to big-league standard as yet. ‘The kid's name is Early. He's from Jacksonville of the Georgia-Florida League. Alex Sabo, the former Ford- ham foot ball player who was carried for a brief period last year, is a train- ing camp possibility. Johnny Mihalic, the Chattanooga second baseman who finished the sea- son for the Nationals, is the only rookie infielder slated to be carried South and, excluding Fréd Sington, only two rookie outfielders will go. They are Howard MacFarland from Albeny and Taft Wright from Chatta- NOOogA. Of the entire group, excluding Sing- ton and Mihalic, only Phebus and Lenahan seem to stand any chance of retention. Because the Nationals were in the running for second-place money at the time he was brought up from Albany, the right-handed Phebus was given few opportunities to prove his ability. He has a good fast ball and considerable poise, but otherwise he did not show much. Lanahan was believed to be ready when he was brought up in 1935, but last Spring in Orlando Richard was no model of behavior on occasions and had trouble getting the ball over the plate. Back to Chattanooga he was sent and there he did so well that the Jookouts' bosses used him too fre- quently. As s Tesult he developed & sore arm and was forced to forego a second trial with the Nationals during the playing season. Chase Has Speed, No Curve, CHAB‘lho'ed‘zoodlmh‘llin camp last year, but he had no curve and‘was wild. Chattanooga also got this southpaw, eventuslly, but the lookouts used him little due to his inexperience. Thus he will entrain for Florida next year with no record to flourish, He definitely is doubtful. Krakauskas received little attention last year and is not likely to be con- sidered seriously next February and March. He did his 1936 pitching in the Canadian League and was not mueh. There is no line on Kelley. -who have seen Taft Wright say that he will make the grade, and 4 NLESS the Washington base | this | | in the light of this touting he may be the most interesting of the rookies in camp. Wright is a short, stocky youngster, built along the lines of | Cleveland’s Roy Weatherly. He had | a good batting average and 3 swell | runs-batted-in mark with Chatta- | nooga, many critics in the Southern ! Association halling him as a better prospect than Sington. | Virtually nothing is known of Mac- Farland, the Albany fiy-chasing rook Brownle Owners Please Griff. | GRIP'F’ITH returned yesterday from | Chicago, where he convened | with other American League club owners, to pass judgment on the rew owners of the Browns. The Old Fox returned well pleased with the group | of St. Louis business men who are | taking over the Mound City fran- | chise, and more than enthusiastic | over the possibility of the Browns playing night base ball. On no other subject, probably, has Griff been more misquoted than on the topic of nocturnal base ball. He definitely does not favor it for Wash- ington or New York or Detroit, or ! any other city where fans will lay | dough on the line to see a ball game. | But for the Browns, where the Na- tionals have not even made expenses | for the last few years, Griff is all for night base ball in limited quantities. “I'd say the Browns ought to be permitted to play about five or six games a year,” declared Griff. “The Cards, too, are going to play at night, at least according to preseni plans. Night base ball is a great thing—but only in St. Louis.” < Dixie Stake and $500. Smith of D. C.
