It was only six years ago that Richards picked up the Portsmouth franchise, and moved it to Detroit, where it became one of the most profitable in the league. For the past three years Richards has had to remain in California for his health and direct the team by telephone and wire.

Wisconsin, one of the most progressive of our northern states in matters of outdoor sport, is deve-oping a broad winter sport program that will this year attract many midwestern snow and ice sport fans. LaCrosse, on the upper Mississippi, entertains hundreds of visitors each week-end, particularly skiers. Bcloit has a 128-foot ski slide, junior slides and a six acre lagoon for skaters. At Delavan here are ice-boat races every week-end into Wisconsin Rapids has new trails for downhill and slalom skiing. There are ski tows at both Land O'Lakes and Wausau (Rib Mountain).

At Land O'Lakes there is nighttime skating on an illuminated rink with music, and skiing near- For those who don't know the usual lording grounds, swale or swamp borders, weed patches, bushy fence-rows and protected sides of wood-lots or ravines are good places to put out feed. Grain placed under dense clumps of evergreens or at bases of large trees will often be available to birds, even after considerable snowfall. Whole or cracked corn, wheat. barley, buckwheat or millet can be used.

The new owners said George (Polsy) Clark, who coached tha Lions to the national title in 1935, would return as head coach. Clark's contract with the Brooklyn Dodgers expired after last son. Chaplin, an executive of tha New York Giants for several years, plans to live in Detroit, and Man-del, who has retired from active duty in the Chicago department store which bears his name, will live here about six months of the year. Formal transfer of the franchise to the new owners must await a two-thirds vote of the other clubs in the league, but there is no doubt that the sale will be approved since League President Carl Storcle helped arrange and gave his approval to the deal. The Scott County Sportsmen's association, following the week end of storm, mailed requests to 38 cooperating farmers asking that six feet in height, and has a good chance to take the 118 pound championship which has been held for three years by Rothchild Gooding, Davenport negro.

Ford went to the Chicago tournament for the first time last February. In his first bout he ran into Al Noto, C. Y. O. champion, and was on his way to victory when Noto turned on a burst of speed in the final round to eke out a split decision.

Had Ford gotten past the best 112 pounder in Chicago he may have gone a long way in the elimination tournament. This year, if he wihs in the local tourney, he'll have more confidence in Chicago and the added weight will help him when he invades the ranks of the bantams.

The Moline kid will have plenty of competition in the 118 pound class when the gloves begin to fly at the Moline field house. Although Gooding, the champion, may have to move into the 126 pound class, Ford will have to get past such stars as Jesse Castel, Davenport Elks veteran; Weldon Sparks, of the Kewanee A.

The tilt with Augustana, postponed at a late hour yesterday afternoon, has not been rescheduled for a definite date as yet but authorities indicated today that the game would be played during the early part of February. The return meeting at Davenport between the Vikings and Saints is scheduled for Feb. 27. The delay came as a welcome token in the St. Ambrose camp where the already none-too-potent Saints "were in a weakened condition.

Augustana's cagers would also be in no shape for a crucial encounter with St. Ambrose after reaching Rock Island only yesterday from Jacksonville, 111., where the Vikings whipped Illinois college Saturday night. The Norse were marooned in Macomb since Sunday due to the snow-bound roads. In addition to the loss of Jim Oakey, high-scoring forward, who injured his left knee in the Simpson tilt Friday, the St. Ambrose team might have been minus the services tonight of Bob Carton, star guard, and Stan Sosnouski, regular center.

Ambrose cagers tonight, the travel weary Augustana Vikings will stick to their school books and radiators until Saturday evening when they entertain the Wheaton conference foes on the Rock Island hardwoods. With tri-city weather conditions making the featured clash with the Ambrose collegians almost impossible from the Tans' viewpoint, officials of the two institutions met yesterday afternoon and postponed the traditional classic to a date to be decided upon in the near future. When the Augustana team plowed its way into Rock Island yesterday noon, all the players in sound health and good spirits, but showed the effect of being snowbound in Macomb since Sunday. Even though they were tired from pushing automobiles through the drifts that had blockaded the passage to Rock Island for Uk'q days, most of the boys attended classes the remainder of Tuesday afternoon. It was the threat of final examinations which begin at the Lutheran school Friday morning that caused much of the anxiety as they were marooned in first Jacksonville and then Macomb.

None of the boys had school books or classroom assignments with them and they have to meet high scholastic requirements to remain eligible for further athletic competition. In Macomb Coach Harold V. "Shorty" Almquist made an effort to sharpen the Augie basket eyes, which came to life in the Illinois college game as Augie upset their conference rivals, 29-24, by drilling in the spacious gymnasium on the campus of Western State Teachers. The three carloads of Vikings left Jacksonville Sunday morning following their league triumph the nighf before. Soon they were forced to battle the blizzard which has petrified normal activity in this entire section of the country and under severe hardships reached Macomb where they harbored Sunday night.

Monday they attempted to push on, but were forced to return to Macomb after progressing only about half the disance to Monmouth. Then leaving at eight o'clock Tuesday morning, Drivers "Buck" Wheat, Bob Friestat, and Coach Almquist guided their machines along the path opened by snow plows to reach Rock Island at noon.

Boston Bruins in Hockey Lead After Beating Canadiens Valley Conference Standings Frankie Nelson Is Beaten in Philly MONTREAL (UP) The Boston Bruins held sole possession of the National league hockey lead today. They rapped Montreal's Canadiens 6-1 last night to climb two points ahead of the idle New York Rangers. After Dit Clapper pushed home the first goal in the first two minutes, the Bruins were out in front and never threatened.
