When a mansger can give smart player like Freddie Lindstrom his release, with the athlete in question fresh from helping the club cop the £onialon, he mdefd is sitting pretty.

"Talk of Lindstrom having managerial aspirations is ridiculous," explains Grimm. "We arc the besl of friends. When I engineered the deal with the Pirates that gnvc us Landy winter, I intended to ii.se him on third base. "I wasn't sure about Stanley Hack. Bud Parmelee.

"But what developed was this. lindstrorn no longer could pliiv a lull season at third bnse, aim couldn't field as he did in his days with thi- Giants, Meanwhile, Hack's wrist inenaed perfectly, and he developed into a ccrking pood third baseman. "liindstrom filled in beautifully at center field during the piirt of the 1935 campaign, but there is only one player to look after thai position now. He is Augie Frank Demaree will start in left held, and Chuck Klein in right." In addition to the five who packed the pitching burden last WarneJce, Bill Lee, Lai-ry French.

Hartnett, Ken O'Dea. and Walter Stepher.son gave the Cubs remarkable catching in 1935, and the scouting etaff has come up with another fine-looking prospect in Harolci Stieme, who spent last, seaf.on with the Pine Bluff, team. tt'eU With Phil Cavarretta, not yet 19 yearr, of age, is certain to be better than ever at ixrst base.

Sports Editor. Emporia Gazette Now that the basketballs and uniforms have been tucked away in the central conference schools, it is time for the annual mortem. In our opinion, honorable mention is due the entire conference as a reward for staging one of tlio most brilliant cage races in years. Not one of the teams, including the lowly but willing Emporia Teachers, conceded an inch to opponents all season and the result a succession of stirring battles. Here in Bmpovia at least, it is the opinion that Southwestern won a well-earned tille.

The Builder team well-balanced which is evidenced by the fact that it, got only one man 0:1 the first all-conference team as selected by this writer. Caywood has been an outstanding player during his entire Southwestern career and because of his unusual ability rates a forward berth even though he is nosed out of his regular center post by Staab of Port Hays. Staab probably will be the unanimous choice of writers around the The Probable Lineups. HaslccH POS. K.

Another Fort Hays, man malees the grade at a guard position. Mitchell's ability is enhanced by his height and reach, of course, but judging solely on the basis of results obtained it seems ho deserves a defensive berth.

To team with Mitchell, we nominate Charles Bailey of the Emporia Teachers. Besides playing a polished defensive game Bailey is one of the high scorers of the league and possesses a keen long range basket eye. Wilson of Wichita, nominated for the other forward post, was the No. 1 man on a Shocker team that some observers believe should have finished higher than it did. Another Wichita man.

Gawthrop, probably would have rated a high ranking, if he had not flunked out at midterm. A Capable Second Team. The second team also is a talented crew that might win a high percentage of games with the No. 1 team. This, is a crew of veterans who play steadily and dependably.

Shields may be kept off some listings because he played only the last semester but feel his ability, which helped bring the Horhets out ot a long slump, deserves recognition. A formidable team also could be built from the honorable mention Hst. which contains several players which we wish we could find room for among the first 10. CARDS BACK TO BRADENTON.

Kansas City, March 9 the Central Intercollegiate confer- once basketball championship tucked away in nothing more important in Kansas college cage elides was at stake in the final game this week than the question of whether one team or three teams would occupy second place in the Kansas conference.

College of Emparla and McPherson meet Wednesday. A McPherson victory would give that team undisputed possession of second place. A College of Emporia victory would mean a three-way deadlock between Emporia, McPherson and Kansas Wcsleyan. Scuthwcslern Takes Title. Coming through with a great stretch drive last week as its only title rival, Fort Hays, was folding up, Southwestern won the C.

C. crown by a comfortable margin. Southwestern started the week in second place. It needed victories in its three remaining: games to even tie for the title if Port Hays won its two remaining games with Pitts- burg. The Moimdtmilders disposed of Emporia Teachers in their two- game series, 41 to 28 and 37 to 23, and thus took rather weak hold on the lead.

It was then that the unpredictable Pittsburg Gorillas took the role of spoiler. They took both games from Fort Hays, 32 to 28 and 45 to 30, thus handing Southwestern the titjc on a silver platter. To make it con- elusive and win on their merits, however, the Moundbuilders spanked a good Wichita team Saturday night, 34 to 25, to breast the tape two full games in front. Baker cleared its last hurdle when it defeated Ottawa. 42 to 21.

McPherson, which had a chance to tie for the Kansas conference crown, lost that chance when it was defeated by Kansas Weslcyan, 27 to 26. Had McPherson won that game, then went OH to defeat College of Emporia next Wednesday, it would have matched Baker's record of eight victories against two defeats.
