MONDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1942. ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH PAGE 4B ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH: Might to Replace Lee Tevis in Bears9 Starting Backfield 1 They Stopped Clark, But Not the Bears 4 Breadon Says He'll Sell No Players Before Next Spring Sam Breadon, returned from a trip to Chicago, where he was thought to be considering player deals, said today there would be no Cardinals sold this fall and indicated that unless there were unforeseen circumstances, all players would be kept until spring training time. Star's Poor Showing In Aggie Game Given As Reason by Gorman By Robert Morrison A shakeup in the Washington University football team began today with backfield ace Lee Tevis being made to play second fiddle to the up-and-coming Jim Hight, heretofore Tevis understudy. "The uncertainties would make it foolish to sell a player this fall," Breadon said.

"We don't know what we'll have and we won't know until time for spring training next year." This was an answer to a statement by the departing general manager, Branch Rickey, that the Cardinals could profit to the extent of $100,000 by selling players whose loss would not hurt the club at all. "I'm not going to contradict Mr. Rickey," Breadon said. "He is a man of lot of experience in baseball. But we're not going to sell anybody." The possibility of the draft taking some players was the uncertain contingency Breadon had in mind.

Enos Slaughter thus far is the only world champion Redbird in the Army but there are others who possibly may be reclassified into 1-A. E3 w- Anderson or Johnsos To Succeed Halas as HARRY CLARK, Chicago Bears halfback, dashes around right to make a gain of eight yards against the Philadelphia Eagles, in the first period of yesterday's pro league game at Chicago. He was stopped by BOB DAVIS and LOUIS TOMASETTI of the Eagles before he could get in the clear. The Bears won, 45 to 14. Pro Champions' Coach Displeased with the Bears' 40-7 defeat by the Oklahoma Aggies, Head Coach Tom Gorman began a cracking down action by announcing that the Bears' biggest name player had lost his starting Job.

"That's right, Tevis didn't play much in the Aggie game and the reason was that he played poorly," Gorman said. "Jim Hight will replace Tevis as a starting back until further notice. Tevis' poor performance, coupled with Hight's good play, makes this necessary." Gorman's disappointment with the Bears' showing was keen this despite the fact that partly responsible for it was a systemic Infection that put Tackle Mode Soule completely out of action and variously afflicted about 10 others on the Washington team before and through the Aggie game. Soule's Loss Serious. "Winkler, Wisman, Brinkley, Seith, Eberhardt, Tracey and others were affected by it, and the loss of Soule really was serious because I had no replacement for left tackle equal to stopping the Aggies on that side of the line," Gorman reported.

"But even considering their Illness, they should have played better." Gorman believed the Aggies had a better running attack than Tulsa, which defeated the Bears just as badly the week before, but that the Aggies aren't as good as Tulsa, which should win when the two meet. "The difference, of course, Is Dobbs," the Washington coach said. "The Tulsa defense was no stronger than the Aggies'." No Rest for Players. The Bears, idle this week and not due to return to action until the following week against Kansas of the Big Six, were due for Illinois Player Only Four Remain Listed as missing today among the district's undefeated and un tied high school football teams was East St Louis, which appar ently went not only out of town, but out of its class over the weekend. Decatur (111.) High School put a 26-6 black mark on the otherwise spotless record of East St Louis, and this left only four district teams in the upper class of all- winning schedules JB eiieviiie, Granite City, St.

Louis U. High and St Charles. Belleville continued as the scor ing leader of the district with a total of 275 points against opponents' 19 in six games, while St Louis U. High is the standout on this side of the Mississippi River with 188 points to 38 in the same number of contests. About even were the other two undefeated, untied squads Gran ite City with a total score of 115 to 22 in six games, and St Charles with 106 to 12 in five games.

After winning the city championship from Belleville Cathedral by a 39-0 count, Belleville Township returns to the Southwestern Illinois Conference this week for a game at Edwardsville. Granite City goes to Wood River and East St. Louis, still undefeated in the league, entertains the tail-end Coliinsville club. C. S.

"We'll go back to work today and start from scratch," he said. "There may be even a couple more changes in the lineup this week." Several members of the team came out of the Aggie game with injuries. End. Gene O'Rourke broke his right thumb. End John Tracey injured his nose and End Bill Pufalt had to leave the game early with a bruised hip, which further weakened that left side of the line.

And that's where the Aggies chose to run many of their plays. Is Star Los Angeles. membered that University of Call fornia of the Pacific Coast Con ference was able to beat St Mary's only by 6-0. "Their team (Loyola) is practically intact from last year," Duford said, recalling that the Billi kens were at their peak when they defeated Loyola at Los Angeles a year ago, 21-13. "Vince Pacewic, who was a sophomore sensation last season, is their big star," Duford continued.

"He comes from just across the river in Wilsonville, 111, and there should be a lot of people over there interested in seeing him." Can Expect Anything. The Billikens can expect almost anything from Loyola, the coach said. "They play the Notre Dame system with a number of variations, some of them with wide flankers and other plays Marty Brill gave them," he added. Brill, former Notre Dame star, has been inducted into the Army and the Loyola team is now being coached by one of his assistants. The St.

Louis squad came out of the Tulsa game in. fairly good condition. Guard Vern Kenny suffered a bruised shoulder but he was the only one to be injured to any extent "Tulsa had a great ball club," Duford said of the 41-0 defeat "I saw the Notre Dame-Illinois game Saturday and neither of those teams had a back to compare with that Glenn Dobbs." Of Billikens' Next Rival 5 Dukes Duford and his St. Louis University Billikens had one consolation this week after successive wallopings from Miami and Tulsa they'll have a little more time to prepare for the next game, CHICAGO, Oct. 26 (AP).

The mighty heritage of the Chicago Bears one of football's greatest organizations will pass on to a new head coach this week. Speculation centered on either Luke Johnsos or Heartly (Hunk) Anderson as the man to maintain the pro grid dynasty built "around the formation by George Halas, who expects to take up duties in a few days at a Midwestern naval aviation base as a lieutenant commander. "I will name my successor Thurs day or Friday," Halas said, after watching his Bears give him a sendoff by smashing the Philadel phia Eagles 45 to 14 yesterday. Anderson beeame Halas' line coach in 1940 after tutoring the Detroit Lions forwards for two years. Prior to that he had been head coach at Notre Dame, St Louis University and North Caro lina State and assistant at Cin cinnati University and Michigan.

Johnsos joined the Bears in 1928 after three years of varsity ball at Northwestern. He played end for eight seasons before being ap pointed to the coaching staff in 1937. After organizing a team at Deca tur, 111, Halas moved it to Chicago in 1921, called it the Bears, and began the tedious and expensive job of educating the public to ap preciate the pro game. Owns Numerous Records. He has coached the Bears to five national championships.

Now they appear headed for their third in a row, being the only unbeaten team in the National football league and boasting an 18-game victory chain, including 12 league wins, five this fall. Among the numerous records the Bears have compiled, the 1941 team-which Halas tabs as "my best" rolled up six; 396 points in 11 games; 56 touchdowns; 45 points after touchdowns; 181 first downs; 4265 yards gained; 2002 yards gained by passing. The club may set another scor ing mark this fall. Thanks to the 45 points against the Eagles' 14 yesterday, the Bruins are averag ing slightly more than 35 a game, compared to last year's average of 36. Five different men rambled to touchdowns mostly through the passing efforts of Sid Luckman and Charlie O'Rourke to hand Philadelphia its sixth defeat in seven contests.

The Bears meet the hapless Lions in Wrigley Field next Sunday while the Chicago Cardinals go to Green Bay, Cleveland to Brooklyn, Pittsburgh to New York and Philadel phia to Washington.

Hockey Loops to Sign A New Agreement WINNIPEG, Oct 26 (AP).

Frank Sargent of Port Arthur, president of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association, said last night a new agreement between the C. A. H. A. and the directors of the National Hockey' League concerning the transfer of ama teur players to the professional ranks "probably will be signed in the next couple of days." Sargent, speaking to the annual meeting of the Manitoba Amateur Hockey Association, told of efforts of the C.

A. H. A. in reaching agreement with N. H.

L. officials, He said that last year the N. H. L. paid $17,000 to the C.

A. H. A. for amateur players, compared with a little more than $6000 the previous year. The money was distributed to various clubs, with more than $13, 000 to clubs in Canada, he said.

Sargent said he expected the number of registered players with the C. A. H. A. this season would De "arouna lu.uuo.

And his mate, Norv Hunthausen, ex-Notre Dame pitching star, was equally effective at right fullback.

Armstrong And Zivic To Battle SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 28 (AP). iienry Armstrong, the littli brown tornado who once held thrtt boxing championships, gets his long awaited chance tonight. He squares off at the Civic Au ditorium with Fritzie Zivic, thi tough Pittsburgh boy who beat him out of his welterweight title I a couple of years ago and battered mm into retirement in a return match. The 10-round bout is the most attractive ring engagement lined up here in years, and gate re- reipts, with an $8 top, are expect ed to reach more than $30,000.

Zivic, as confident as the day late in 1940 when he lifted thi last of Armstrong's world crowmj from the Negro's head, predicts tj he would give his opponent in-other lacing. Ia his two New York meetings with Armstrong, won the title in 15 rounds, thtn stopped the former champ in 12 rounds a few months afterward.

Coast Loyola Drops Out of Unbeaten Class LOS ANGELES, Oct 26 Angeles out of the select circle c'i undefeated football teams yesterday by scoring a well earned 13 to 0 victory before a crowd of 20,000 at Gilmore field. Loyola held a slight edge through the first half but the Gaels began to crack down on the Lions' left tackle spot in the third quarter, and with fullback Tony Compagno leading the charge, pounded 3 yards to a touchdown. This scoring drive started pass on St. Mary's 40 and returned 27 yards.

It was Compagno who set up th second touchdown in the fourth quarter. Gonzalo Morales "hot a pass to Tony on the Lions' 18 to climax an assault at the left Morales passed to end Ray Curry on the 2, and Gonzales scored on the next play. Loyola tried hard to get back in the ball game and Halfback Frea Beyrouth found a hole at tackle and ran 49 yards across Mary's goal, only to have the py nullified by an offside penalty.

Silent John Titus, Philadelphia National League outfielder at the turn of the century and the last big leaguer to sport a handlebar mustache, has two strikes on him in his fight against paralysis but he's still In there swinging.

"I've got two strikes on me but I'm not giving up. You never can tell in baseball until the last man is out and I'm far from out," said the 66-year-old former ball player today at his home in this Pennsyl vania anthracite section. He has amazed doctors by his fight for life after a stroke paralyzed his left side several weeks ago. And the eyes which Manager Hans Lobert of the Phils, a former teammate of Silent John's, called "the best batter's eyes I ever saw," now are almost blinded by cata racts. Wichita Commandos Beat Randolph Field WICHITA, Kan, Oct 26 (AP).

The Aero Commandos of Wichita outclassed a fighting team of flying cadets from Randolph Field Tex, here yesterday to take their third straight football game, 55 to 0. Ralph Miller and Bert Hayes, leading scorers for the Commandos were on the sidelines when the game started, but Doug McEnulty Tip Mooney and other Commandos could not be stopped by a lighter Army team. The heavy Comman dos line turned back every threat that even remotely indicated a pos sible Army score. The Wichitans stacked up margin of 232 yards gained in rushing to 80 for the Texans. The Kansans led 17 to 7 in first downs and completed seven out of 14 passes for 166 yards compared with the Cadets' three completions out of 20 tries for 21 yards.

THE LINEUPS "We have half a dozen players at the Field who would work an improvement in our lineup," explained Corp. Paul Lehman, who directed the team. "Trouble is we couldn't get off K-P duty long enough to play this game." The two Army teams met in the first game of a doubleheader arranged by the Soccer Players' Benevolent Association. A disappointing crowd of 1002 paid to see the show. The Raftery-Eagans, holders of the Municipal League championship, defeated the Schumachers in the second game, 1 to 0.

Almost as nippy as they were at the close of last season, the Rafterys were the stronger looking team and despite the loss of several stars of their title team, two of them lined up with the Schumachers, they look like flag contenders again. Peter McNab, at which is Sunday, with Loyola of The California team will oppose the Billikens here in what will be the Billikens' first Sunday game in Walsh Stadium, and the St Louis U. athletic officials will watch with interest the size of the crowd that will turn out. "With many working orf Saturdays and having other interests Friday nights, there should be a great many able to attend a Sunday game that never get out on other days," Duford Lost One Game. "And Loyola is a good team undefeated before yesterday," he added.

Loyola's 13-0 defeat by St. Mary's was its first setback in five games this season which has produced victories for the Californians over Redlands, Occidental, 25-0; San Francisco, 7-2, and Alameda Coast Guard, As a comparison, it may be re- Alsab May Be Starter In Special BALTIMORE, Oct. 26 (AP). The sixth running of the famed Pimlico Special two days hence shaped up today as either a second match race between Whirlaway and Alsab or simply a $10,000 stroll for the longtailed Calumet comet Although eight thoroughbreds won races which would qualify them to rua in the event, Pimlico, officials said their owners had apparently been frightened by the weight for age conditions. Thus, every four-year-old or up must carry 126 pounds and every three-year-old 120 pounds over the mile and three-sixteenths course.

Al Sabath, whose wife owns Alsab, told track officials he would decide today whether he would start the three-year-old which holds two victories out of the three races against Whirlaway. He said he would make his decision after examining the weights assigned for the running of the Westchester Handi cap at Empire City next Saturday. A victory in this race would make Alsab the top money winning horse of the year. A win over Whirly in the Special would still leave him shy of the mark. Trainer Ben Jones said Whirlaway was in top shape after his $14,350 victory in the Washington Handicap at Laurel Park Saturday and that the money-winning champ could be regarded as a sure Special starter.
