Did Southwest Conference coaches "blackball" some veteran football officials? lixe Fort Worth Star-Telegram today reported they did at a in Dallas nearly five months ago. Some officials said they did not know wnetner tney were Black balled," but said they were not working any Southwest Conference games this season ior ine nrsx time in years. Baylor Coach Bob Woodruff said there was "no that the coaches just agreed on officials at a meeting rather than submit ting a list of those they desired to work their games to the conference executive secretary. This has been the past practice. John Barnhill, coach of tne uni versity of Arkansas, said the con ference changed its system ol selecting football officials In an effort "to Improve the officiating," I heartily approve the new method," he said.

"Because some of our officiating hasn't been too good." "If what we're trying this year doesn't work, we'll probably try something else next year." Barnhill said most of the Southwest coaches believed that if one coach "blackballed" an official, that official probably would not be de sirable for calling games or otner coaches. Besides we don't need as many officials as we've had in the past. None of the action is going to hurt' Arkansas." He said the coaches hoped to "get some younger men into officiating" in the conference. James H. Stewart, the executive secretary of the conference, was in New England and could not be reached for comment.

The Star-Telegram said 6uch veteran officials as Gehe Bedford, Charles Hawn. Earl Dayvault, Harry Viner, Charles Swartz, and O. N. Yeary were "blackballed." Records of the Southwest Conference show Dayvault, Bedford, and Hawn will not work any conference games this fall. All, however, are officiating in intersectional and other non-conference games.

Viner and Swartz are listed as re tiring this year. Yeary -is listed as working some Lone Star Conference games Stewart also makes assignments of officials for this conference. The Star-Telegram said the meeting of coaches was held March 6. The paper said the coaches put into effect a "sudden death black ball system that drastically reduced the length of lists of officials eli gible for work in their games." The newspaper said only one negative vote was required to keep an official out of all conference games for one year. Individual member schools of the conference have received the list of officials assigned to their games No complete list has been made public.

Howard Grubbs, athletic director of Texas Christian University, denied knowledge of any "blackball" meeting. But he said Viner. Swartz, Dayvault, Bedford, Hawn and Yeary are. not working any TCU games this. year.

"I can't say about the others," Grubbs said, "I haven't seen the list but I do understand there is a desire to work more young officials into the schedules." Maxey Hart of San Antonio, president of the Southwest Football Officials Association, said his official comments have been filed with Stewart. "We do not question the right of the conference to select its officials as it pleases," Hart said. "It did seem a little unjust to take the action without discussing the matter with us first." Bedford said he is certain the matter will be brought up at the association's meeting in Dallas, Aug. 27-28. "I have 10 games lined up for next season," Dayvault said at Houston, "includin such Intersectional tilts as Notre Dame-SMU, Texas A.

and M. and Oklahoma. "I certainly think its an outrage when one coach can tell you that you can't officiate a game in which he has no part." The Star-Telegram said in the March meeting at Dallas the coaches sought to shorten the eligible list by requiring three negative votes for elimination. The paper said this did not produce the desired results. Then, it said, unanimous approval was required.

Any coach who didn't like any official eligible to work his games could, by turning thumbs down, keep that official out of all conference games. Canadian Boat Reported Ready for Trophy Race INGERSOLL, July 25 UP). Miss Canada IV, only Canadian entry in the Harmsworth Trophy international power boat races on the Detroit river next week-end, is in "perfect" condition and "plenty fast," Owner E. A. Wilson of Inger-soll said today.

Wilson, whose son Harold will pilot the boat, said the sleek motor-boat went through a 50-mile run yesterday at Gravenhurst, and "everything was perfect." 54 36 .600 3 40 41 .544 8 49 43 .533 48 44 .522 10 39 53 .430 lSlfc 34 S3 .391 31 '4 31 59 .344 36 Combine to Best Losers Vic Raschi NEW YORK, July 25 (jp). The Cleveland Indians defeated the New York Yankees, 4-2, tonight, to cut the Bronx Bombers first place lead in the American League race to three games. Early Wynn, witb the help of Satchel Paige in the eighth, bested Vic Raschi before a paid attendance of 71,354. Left fielder Dale Mitchell was the batting star for the Indians, driving in Cleveland's first run with a long liner to center, and scoring the second run after belting a tre mendous triple to left center. What proved to be the winning runs, however, resulted from a passed ball and a wild pitch.

After Mickey Vernon had brought in Mitchell from third with a long fly in the fifth, Yankee catcher Gus Niarhos allowed a pitch by Raschi to get away from him and Thurman Tucker scored all the way from second. In the eighth, Manager Lou Bou-dreau singled, was sacrificed to sec ond moved to third on an infield out, and scored when Raschi un corked a wild pitch. It took two singles and a double to provide the Yankees with their first run in the third. George Stirnweiss followed a single by Raschi with another one, but Raschi was caught trying to back to second after rounding the bag too far. Phil Rizzuto then doubled to score Stirnweiss.

The Yankees tallied again in the eighth and sent Wynn to the showers. Rizzuto and Tommy Hen- rich singled, with the little shortstop racing to third. Paige relieved Wynn at this point and retired the next three men in order, with Rizzuto crossing the plate on Joe DiMaggio's fly.

PLAY 44 TIE WITH DODGERS Contest is Called at End Of Ninth to Allow.

Clubs Make Train Connections BROOKLYN. July 25 (P). The clock called a halt to the- National League pennant race today, leaving the St. Louis Cardinals and Brooklyn Dodgers locked in a 4-4 tie when their game had to be called at the end of nine innings to make train connections. By mutual agreement between the two top contenders, no new inning was to start after 3:00 p.

m. (EST) because both the Cards and Dodgers had to hustle west for tomorrow's games. When the last Dodger out was recorded in the last of ninth. with two men left on base, it was 3:11 p. m.

(EST). Extra innings wert out of the question. The Cardinals, who swept the first three games of the series to snatch the league lead by a half game, rai led to save their slender margin in a three-run sixth inning. Up to then it looked as though the Brooks might start their third Western swing in first place. St.

Louis is scheduled to play night at home against the Phillies tomororw night and the Dodgers must make an early train to get to Chicago in time for tomorrow afternoon's game. Today game. originally scheduled and rained out May 10. will be fitted into the Cards final Eastern swing in late August. Today was to have been a com plete open date in the National but the game was "written in to care of the earlier postponement.

The time deadline was -announced previously but when it was repeated over the Ebbets Field loud speaker before the game it drew boos from the crowd of 27,058. The game was carried down to the final out when Spider Jorgen-sen delivered a pinch single off Fred Martin, fourth Card pitcher, with two out in the last of the ninth. Martin walked Jackie Rob inson, but made Gil Hodges hit into a force play to end the game. Once again Stan Musial was the big man in the Card attack, coming through with a single, double and triple in another big batting day at the expense of Brooklyn pitching. This boosted his average from .299 to .304.

Musial's first inning triple, after Ralph walked Lou Klein, gave the Cards an early lead. The Dodgers came back with two in the third on two walks by Max Lanier, the reinstated Mexican jumper, and singles by Carl Furillo and Robinson and a fly ball. Roy Campanella walked, stole second and scored on Pee Wee Reese's single in the fourth to make it 3-1. Then, came Musial again, doubling with two out in the sixth. Branca, walked Enos Slaughter and gave up successive doubles to Ron Northey and Rocky Nelson, driving in three runs.

Gene Hermanski'a pinch homer off Ted Wilks tied the score in the Dodger sixth. ST.

Majeski hit the most triDles id Mitchell the most es' I2. and jjiiiigi icu I no sti L7m AD JL Match Friday By MARTY LEVIN Morning News Sports Edito Australia's veteran Davis Cupper, seeking, to regain the bowl they lost to the United States in 1946, started drilling in earnest yesterday for -their American Zone finals match with Mexico which will be played on the Wilmington Country Club's grass courts starting this Friday. It is almost a certainty that Ro lando and Armando Vega will handle both the singles and doubles assignments for the Mexicans, but Clifford Sproule, manager of the Aussie netmen, was non-committal on how his team would line up. The draw for the first two singles matches will probably be made Thursday afternoon at the Wil mington Country Club, and the opening test has been scheduled for 2 p. m.

Friday. The jovial Mexicans, performing on 'grass for the first time this year, are hopeful of putting up a good struggle, but Armando explained that it would be quite difficult to become adapted to the new surface virtually overnight. "Well, probably be well -accustomed to grass by the time the matches are over," he stated. Sedffman No. 1 Player Sproule, at one time one of Australia's top-ranking netmen, is the sole spokesman for the Aussies.

"We have a strict rule," he ex plained, "that no member of the team, other than the manager, may issue any statement relative to our tennis activity." Trank Sedgman is our national champion and in all probability will play our No. 1 position, while Billy Sidwell and John Bromwich are on a virtual par. One of the reasons we had a little trouble with the Canadian team," he continued, "was the fact that the balls used for our matches were inflated to a much greater pressure than Ve had been accustomed to. The American balls take just about the same bounce as ours, and I feel sure well be able to play at our best here." Armando was of the opinion that the weather conditions here were more suited to the Australians than the Mexicans. "Of course we have hot weather, in Mexcio, but the air Is very dry inasmuch as we are situated so much higher.

One does not feel the heat in Mexico City where we have done most of our tennis, playing." The Australians were joined by a fellow-countryman. George Worthington, who been competing in tournaments in the United States and England. Worthington, who will workout with the team, recently went to the doubles finals at East Hampton with Sidney Wood where they were opposed by Billy Talbert and Gardnar Mulloy. The- Mexicans, it was noted, do not play the fiery brand of tennis exemplified by American tournament performers, but are mostly concerned with keeping the ball in play from a base-line position. The Australians, on the other hand, and particularly Sedgman, rely on a strong overhead and powerful serv ice to roll up their points.

Winner Opposes Italy This is Sedgman's first year on the Aussie team and he appears one of the Anzac's best prospects since Dinny Pails turned professional. He extended Ted Schroeder to five sets in the quarter-final round of the Wimbledon tournament, and swept both his singles matches against Canada, and also shared in the doubles victory with Bromwich. The winner of this match will qualify to meet Italy, victor in the European Zone, in the Inter-Zone final at the Westchester Country Club. Rye. N.

Italy today won the European round of the Davis Cup tennis eliminations by conquering France, 3-2, in a bitterly fought series. The honor of clinching Italy's first post-war victory went to Giani Cucelli, their No. 1 player, who out-steadied Marcel Bernard, French ace, 8-6, 3-6, 4-6, 6-0, 6-1.

Previously Robert Abdesselam, French No. 2 man, downed Marcello Del Bello, 6-3, 6-4, 6-2, to square the match count at 2 -all. Four of the five matches in the series went to five sets under a tor rid sun and today's play reflected the fatigue of the players. As a result of its victory, Italy will meet the winner of the Amer lean Zone final between Australia and Mexico to decide who will challenge the United States for the cup, The Australia-Mexico finals will be played July 29-31 at Wilmington, wiui tne inter-zone nnai scheduled for Rye, N. Aug.

The survivor will face the United States team at Forest Hills, N. Aug. 26-28. Bernard played brilliantly to win two of the first three sets but he came back after the intermission completely out of steam. He could not find the range from the net or baseline and the Italian had little trouble running out the match.

Cucelli, a scrambling player with the style of BItsy Grant, was overshadowed but never outclassed in the first part of the match. The lefthanded Bernard was occasionally brilliant with-his net play but he was erratic. Scrambling for every point, Cucelli seemed to weaken when he dropped the third set but he came back steady after the intermission. He won the first four games in the fourth set and Bernard then tried to save his strength for the final, losing 6-0. In the fifth set, Bernard won the opening game but that was alL Three days of hard- tennis were telling on his 36 years and he couldn't keep the ball in court or run for Cucelli's well-placed returns.

The Abdesselam-Del Bello match was largely a baseline duel. Del Bello was extremely erratic and lost the match on his mistakes. Italy won the European Zone on two previous occasions in 1928 and 1930. Both times -it was defeated by the United States in the inter-zone round. The Davis Cup was then held by the French team of Henri Cochet and Jean Borotra.

If it weren't for six teen age girls, Washington's baseball Senators would have crept into town today as unnoticed as so many, government clerks. The little group was all that remained of more than 1000 cheering fans who trooped down to Union Station the morning of May 13 to welcome their conquering heroes after the Nats had won 10-in-a-row. Screaming like Sinatra style bobby-soxers, the six waved a large placard which read: "Lose or win, dont give in Don't be blue, we're with you!" The only other people who showed the slightest interest in the goings-on were seven wives half the usual number and two reporters.

Even the traveling baseball writers weren't with the club when it returned. They came in by plane after yesterday's games In Cleveland. Turnex Will Seek Kayo Over Douglas Tomorrow Kell and Williams Tied For A. L. Batting Lead CHICAGO.

The pair of 147-pounders will tangle in the feature bout of the weekly amateur show tomorrow night at the Blue Hen Arena, Third and Scott Streets. Turner holds two decisions over his Philadelphia rival, and will also be protecting a string of nine consecutive victories.

George Kell of Detroit and Ted Williams of Boston tied for the lead with .342 averages to shade Dom Dl-Maggio of Boston, last week's leader, who was hot on their heels with .341.

Other leaders, in games includ ing tnose of yesterday, are: Bob Difiinger, of St. Louis, who leaped from 10th place last week to follow DiMaggio this week, with Roy Sievers, St. Louis, department with nine.
