I I I )l I 0 i ft TOMMY HOLMES Tfiere Once Were Two Frencfimen- Rickey to Announce Dodger Trade Today Major League Magnates Finally Wake Up To Danger of Rotten Condition in Minors A AT THE B'WAY I sat at the ringside at the old Broad-Way the other evening while Herbie Kronowitz was fixing to put the slug on some blond kid named Baxter when I felt a sharp elbow in my ribs and there was Abe Yager, the demon press agent. "Do you remember, that boxing Judge over there?" Mr. Yager wanted to know. The man in question was (and is) a dark-haired fellow easily identified as Charley Rosen. In the middle 20's he Was a pretty fair lightweight.

"I remember the night in this very ring that he boxed Lucien Vinez," I answered. "That was a funny one." By HAROLD C. BURR Staff Correspondent of the Eagle Los Angeles, Dec. 6 The Merry Magnates are beginning to wake up to the realization that old Judge Bill Bramham said a mouthful in exposing the rotten conditions prevailing in baseball's minor leagues. The chief criticism against the Judge was for not speaking up sooner, but all were in accord that something ought to be done to wipe out the gambling evil.

Many of the owners have big league affiliations with their widespread farms and working agreements and must protect themselves from the crooked ball player or the whole structure of baseball will topple and fall. i. "Ho, ho, ho," roared the demon press agent and he VAIN TRY FOR SCORE Hugo Herman, Lafayette, getting around Dick Pheiffer, Grover Cleveland, in their P. S. A.

L. city soccer championship match yesterday at Brooklyn Col President Branch Rickey, flying 0. Boro Fives Paced By Pass Masters kept it up so long that I thought Mr. Yager had blown his top. What I remembered was funny enough but not that funny.

BOUT CHANGED THE RULES Vine? was a Jab-and-get-away boxer who kept a feather duster left in Rosen's face for the first seven rounds of a 12-round fight. After that Rosen got to the Frenchman and whammed the whey out of his body with left hooks. Vinez took a bad beating in the late stages of the fight but got the decision and the fans wanted to tear the joint apart. There was such an uproar over the verdict that the whole kit and kaboodle were hauled up before the Boxing Commission. That august body not only upheld the decision of its officials but forthwith ruled that all futuia decisions be rendered in favor of the gladiator who won the greater number of rounds.

For 20 years or until Eddie Eagan, the Rhodes scholar, came up with his point system bouts in New York were judged on the rounds-won basis. That was what I remembered and that didn't account for Mr. Yager's hysterics. I didn't learn the reason for that until on hnnr nr sn lat.pr whpn dp worp washlnc down salami Br GEORGE COLEMAN Lafayette Booters Retain City Crown By JAMES J. MUBPHY Good burghers of Bensonhurst want to Install SI Yudell mayor of the section.

The first citizen of the community Increased his civic popularity yesterday by guiding Lafayette High School to its third straight P. S. A. L. city soccer championship.

The successful defense of the coveted laurels was Miller McGuire, Master-Passers of Basketball, last night, staged their winning act before 17,283 admiring Garden fans. Not since the days of tomers watched an MPB do Dutch Garflnkel have the cus his deadly work. Last night, they saw a double-feature. In the St. John's and crackers at Carl Firestone's suds Darlor around the ii IN! corner, THE OTHER STORY "Do you mean to tell me that you don't know how we got Vinez into the Broadway ring that night?" said the demon press agent, and only then did I learn we had two different sets of recollections.

It seems that Vinez was lightweight champion of France. He came to this country matched to box Sid Terrls at the Garden, accompanied by Albert Badoud, an old fighter, and his manager. Said manager was a chunky, menacing-looking guy with handlebar mustaches. (Yager called him "an Well, Badoud knew Dan McKettrick and McKettrick turned them over to the tender mercies of Andy Nelder-reiter, Tony Martello, who was known as the count of Court and A. Yager.

A tune-up bout with Rosen was suggested but the Frenchmen, not wishing to blow the Terrls match, weren't keen for it until they discovered what a marvelous arena Brooklyn had. WHAT AN ARENA! "We convinced them," said the demon press agent, "by bringing them over to Brooklyn and showing them the 106th Regiment Armory at Bedford and Atlantic." "Oui, oui," said Vinez, "magniflque." "Tres blen," grunted the Apache. (This, of course, is assuming that those words mean what Abe Yager thinks they do.) Anyway, the night of the fight arrived and Martello waited for the Frenchmen on the armory steps. When they arrived he hurriedly explained that the cops had closed the joint, bundled them back in the cab and took them out to the old Broadway. And that's all there is to the story except that Vinez 66 43 victory over Georgia they marveled as Dick McGuire did more with a basketball than Thurston the magician, did with a top hat and rabbits.

Then, In the Long island 7152 conquest Val paraiso, they saw Nat Miller out do McGuire. With McGuire, and Len Doctor, too, throwing passes to each other and to Hank Boykoff, the Redmen had less trouble than General Sher man had marching through Georgia. Before the tilt was 15 minutes old, the Indians enjoyed a 14 edge ana the Dearay Tribe's reserves were doing the playing while the regulars rested. It wasn't much of a contest but the fans were watch ing McGuire, not the game. Miller had only one other per' former in his act last night.

He did most of the flipping to Dick Holub, who netted 24 points, and had Valparaiso's Al Chelich out of the game on personal fouls before the initial half was a dozen minutes old. The banishment of 6-foot-5 Chelich crippled the Vols' defense against long, lean Holub. Rushes His Shots Generally, Miller, like McGuire, has along with the big pivotman, a sharpshooter like the Redmen's Doctor. The pass-master did, at the start. Jackie Goldsmith was in there throwing, but, not with his usual William Tell accuracy.

The metropolitan high scorer of '46 was rushing his shots and after trying 11, making only one on a layup, Coach Clair Bee sat Jackie beside him on the bench. Later, when the Blackbirds were on the long end of a 5034 count, Jackie returned to action for the final five minutes. Miller and McGuire give their respective fives not only top back- court men on the defense but also double-threat offense. Boykoff and Holub are at the peak of the nation's list of pivotmen. Big cagers who require two men to stop them.

But when that happens, these men merely return the ball to the back- court where it is then flipped to the popshot artist, on I. U. it's Goldsmith, on St. John's it's Doctor. Most likely neither the Georgia nor the Valparaiso players yet, know what happened to them last night.

For, Southerners and Westerners know little about passing as it's done by MPB's. Out of the East, except at Notre Dame, McGuire and Miller would probably be cut off the squad after the first tryouts. But MPB's are as scare as 7-foot cagers who can really run lege Field. Lafayette won, 3 Establish Cerdan 7-5 Ring Choice In Garden Brawl By PAUL GOULD Considering that Marcel Cerdan has never been seen In action on these shores, boxing's betting fraternity will voice an unusual vote of confidence tonight when the Frenchman skips through the ropes for his 10-round Madison Square Garden engagement with Georgie Abrams. Sight unseen, Cerdan has sold himself to the American public and established himself as a 75 favorite.

But this is only natural. La Belle France has produced some disthv guished gamecocks in her day and Marcel is a natural successor to a long line that includes Carpentler Routis, Thll and Criqui. The undercurrent of sentiment that boosted Cerdan into the spotlight overseas has swelled to a mighty wave since the former sailor arrived here. In his local workouts, he provided a convincing glimpse of the form that carried him to 94 victories in 96 bouts and the European title. Fifty three of those triumphs were registered via kayoes and on the only occasions he was defeated he was declared the loser on iouis.

Thirty years of age, comparatively short of a middleweight ne stanas five feet, seven inches he is an aggressive puncher, a clever boxer, possessing stamina and is strong and rugged. The Ols who saw nun in the ETO testified that he was the goods in whipping Cleto Loca te U. Saverlo Turieilo, Gus Humery, LaiTy Clsneros, Holman Williams and others. Never in all his en counters in the squared circle has he been floored. The engagement is the second of the projected 20th Century Sporting Club extravaganzas involving Euro pean aces, and Marcel comes here bally hooed more than any invader since the days of Carpentler.

Bruce Woodcock impressed despite his kayo by Taml Mauriello and now Cerdan is likely to cut himself a handsome hunk of melon, too. As many as 17,000 fans are likely to pay 190,000 for the privilege of watching the two bang away. As Mike Jacobs lies grappling with his life, the Casablanca clouter will be seeking to establish himself as a formost contender in his 'Clique and earn a shot for an outdoor go with either Tony Zale or Rocky Graziano. Like Marcel, Abrams is a former tar who demonstrated In beating Steve Belloise that he is rounding into shape again after four years in bellbottom trousers. Brooklyn's Larry Fontana is featured In the semi-final eight with Villa Vlcencio of Mexico, while a pair of sixes pair Howie Brodt of Oneida, N.

But the Mahatma of the Dodgers has called a press conference for this afternoon at which he expects to have another Brooklyn deal to announce.

George Trautman was duly elected yesterday to become the laundry- man to wash the dirty linen of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues that was left behind in the tub by Bramham. Trautman is the new prexy of the NAPBL for the next five years at a wage of $25,000 per annum. One group of serious thinkers contend that Trautman is being groomed to take over Happy Chandler's job at the expiration of the commissioner's term of office. Chandler's seven-year contract runs out at the same time. It's no secret that there's a bloc against the gentleman from Kentucky and that they regret hiring him in the first place, "I've just read Judge Bramham's report." said Trautman.

"It's a problem for all baseball to tackle. But I don't take office until January, and I don't know yet Just how wide spread the practice has become, it may be only tin-horn gambling stuff." Changes His Mind After a night's sleep Chandler ad mitted that the revelations must be investigated. "Baseball has enjoyed two years of integrity. Each of the World Series in my regime went to seven games, added the Czar, ad vancing the old bromide on the honesty of the game. Trautman is going to move the headquarters of the NAPBL from Durham, North Carolina, to Colum bus, Ohio, his home for the past 36 years.

Speculation continues on his successor as the general manager of the Detroit Tigers. Jack Zellers could have it, but he resigned from the post once. Other candidates rrt George Weiss of the Yankee farm system, Wish Eagan, Tiger scout, Earl Mann, president of the Atlanta Crackers, and Billy Evans, president of the Southern League. But Weiss Is alleged to nave the Inside track. George hat had nil.

tiffs with laughing Larry MacPhall, but they have all been smoothed over. As previously reported in these dispatches, his Yankee contract stui has a year of life. But that could be easily adjusted. President Will Harrldge confirmed the contention that Chandler could act if he had the inclination and President Horace Stoneham asked Bramham, the accuser, that he name names. While MacPhail thought that 14 years the Judge's span on the Job was too long to hold silence.

"Human nature is weak," said Bill Veeck, youthful president of the Cleveland Indians. "I don't see what can be done except to police the parks and if they get the goods on any player throw him out of baseball." "If you have a mess like that there's no sense in trying to hide it by kicking it under the sofa," said Singin' Sam Breadon of Cardinals. the Snead Leads Golf Field Into Second Round Miami, Dec. 6 (U.R) Sammy Snead, British Open champion and sixth among the year's money-winners, held a two-stroke lead as the field moved into the second round today in the $10,000 Miami Open, final stop on the 1946 golf tournament swing. Senad had a five-under-par 65 yesterday, two strokes better than Herman Barron of White Plains, N.

and Al Smith of Danville, Va. Ben Hogan, pre-tournament favorite and the 1946 money-winning champ, took a 68. Tied with Hogan at 68 were nine other big-name linksmen Herman Keiser, Jim Demaret, Sam Byrd, Johnny Palmer, Dutch Harrison, Jim Fert-ier, Claude Harmon, Joe Kirkwood and Charley Ward, the English star. got the decision over Rosen Yanks Get Mack, Lollar in Swap With Cleveland Los Angeles, Dec. 6 The Yankees took their turn yesterday at announcing the deal ol the day.

Laughing Larry MacPhall has put over another one with the Cleve land Indians. This time he gets Ray Mack, infielder. and Sherman Lol' lar. a young catcher, for Allen Get tel and Gene Bearden pitchers, and outfielder Hal Peck. Gettel was a Yankee last year but- Bearden hurled for Oakland out' here in the Pacific Coast League.

Mack came up to the Indians in mid-season of 1939 from Buffalo with Lou Boudreau. He had a good year in 1940 when he hit 280. It's believed that the Yankees took him as Insurance against George Stlrnwelss bogging down at the midway. The newcomer to the Stadium can't play any place around the crescent of dirt except at second. Lollar was the batting champion of International League in 1945.

But vas in only 28 American League games last year, and was returned to the Orioles on option. Cleveland disposed of Butch Meyer at Newark. He came up orig inally with Detroit as a shortstop and after a hitch in the service of Uncle Sam hit .292 for Cleveland in 1945. He did 'ery little playing last year. The Indians, those busy Ab' origines, sold pitcher Pete Center to Baltimore and sent southpaw Charley Gassaway to Oakland.

Gas saway was brought from Oakland last Summer, on the promise to send the Pacific Coast League club a player in exchange. But they just sent Gassaway back and let it go at that The White Sox have signed Charley Ruffing and Port' land has done the same by Tommy Bridges Bill Posedel, goes from the Braves to Seattle as a player-coach and the Reds have added a third in Jack Knott, former Brownie and Athletic moundsman George Castor, the pitcher without a wind-up, has drawn his unconditional release by Detroit.

Bafle SporU Picture accompiisnea against, urover thieve- land High School of Queens before 1,000 rooters at Brooklyn College Field, 3 to 0. It was the fourth time under Yudell's regime that, the Frenchies have ruled Pappy Knickerbocker's roost in the booting game and the sixth time Si has turned the trick. On the other two occasions he was mentor of New Utrecht High School's booters. The Maroon and White closed out the eventful campaign with a record of 16 wins and two ties, seven triumphs and one draw on the march to the Brooklyn honors. Cleveland annexed eight straight In drawing down the premier honors In Queens, and 11 in a row all told.

Incidentally, Bill Ruocco, Lafayette's goalie, maintained his enviable record of not having a goal made against him in all of his league combats. As a result of the well deserved victory, Max Plncus, head of the Health Education Dept. of Lafayette and chairman of the P. 6. A.

L. soccer committee, was so proud of the feat and threw out his chest to such an extent that he burst the buttons on his vest. It was a cherished success and a big disappointment to Cleveland, which considered the Brooklyn College layout its lucky field after winning the P. S. A.

L. city baseball championship on it from James Madison last Spring. Hard Pill to Swallow The pill was all the more hard to take because the Indians wanted to avenge the setback they suffered at the hands of the Frenchies for the title two years ago. On that occasion there was a dispute over officials, and as a consequence the Brown and White withdrew from the competition but returned this season with Joey Singer, back from the armed forces, at the helm as mentor. It was sort of a grudge affair on account of the old dispute, but the game was clean and hard fought over the entire route.

It was obvious at the outset that Lafayette was the better team. With the wind and sun against them in the first half, which was scoreless, the Frenchies centered the action in Cleveland's territory. With the blow in their favor and Old Sol at their back, Lafayette did all of the damage In the second half. The period was exactly 15 minutes old when Jerry Fried broke the ice in the matter of scoring. Five minutes later Barry Shack found the range, and with but three minutes remaining, Marvin Gensler toed in the goal that made matters secure.

Hugo Herman, leading scorer of the champs, who was kept under close surveillance all afternoon, tricked the opposition on each tallying play by getting the assist when the Indians were looking for him to try for points. Lafayette gained the final by disposing of Commerce, the Manhat tan and Bronx titlist, after a playoff, their first encounter ending in a scoreless tie. Cleveland advanced at the expense of Stuyvesant, run ner-up in the over-the-river hanks, which are much larger than the two divisions on this side of the spans. The lineups: Pos.

THEY MAY BE SMART All this leads to a notion that the advisers of Marcel Cerdan may have known what they were doing when they kept their man practically in hiding while training for his 10-round bout with Georgie Abrams at the Garden tonight. Times have changed in the ring racket but there is no sense in taking chances. Sight unseen, Cerdan has been established as the favorite over Abrams. This seems inconsistent but then there are a lot of Inconsistencies in Cerdan's background. Marcel is called the French middleweight champion although his father was a Spaniard.

He is called the European middleweight champion although he was born in Algiers and lives in Morocco. His home, in fact, is in Casablanca but I don't know whether or not this makes him as tough as Humphrey Bogart. Sammy Rlchman, who escorted Holman Williams to Paris, where Williams lost a decision to Cerdan, tells me that the foreigner Is "a good club fighter who is likely to be too strong for Abrams."
