PROVIDENCE (R.I.) Oct. 26. Navy 121) the Lions reaching their season When Joe McCarthy gets around to rebuilding his New York Yankees for the 1941 American League race many of the experts contend his toughest problem will be behind the plate. And that is where the Yankees haven't had a sign of a worry since Long Bill Dickey worked himself into the first, string catching job several sea-eons ago. All ballplayers reach the end of their string eventually and there are more than a few who believe Dickey not only is on the downgrade but did considerable skidding during the past campaign.

Much of the blame for the downfall of the Yanks this year can be charged to Dickey, who experienced his worst season both behind and at. the plate. The lanky Little Rock receiver wound up with a batting average of only 247, but those who saw hfm in action say Dickey also looked bad in his receiving and his In other words, he didn't look like the Bill Dickey baseball fans have" known and opponents have feared for several seasons. As one baseball critic put it, "1 think Dickey's through as a first-string catcher for a championship ball club. But figure it ou for yourself.

Bill started catching back In 1925 and has been doing a steady job ever Fince. After joining the Yankees in 1928, Dickey caught more than 100 games for 12 straight seasons. He was catching pitchers with plenty of stuff and he took an awful pounding. It was bound to take its toll and it really showed up in Dickey's work this year. He's slowed up an awful lot, too." Only in one season previous to 1940 did Dickey fail to bat over .300.

Further, he was a preat catcher. The Yanks will find him a tough guy to replace. BUXCH OF SISSIES? Far be it from the old X-Ray to cast any. aspersions, hut it would appear the local brand of footballers are just a bunch of sissies. You can't help but adopt that attitude after seeing so many games postponed Friday because of a little rainstorm.

GREAT FINISH After an 84-yard march had produced the first Wisconsin touchdown, the pay-off blow came on a pass from Johnny Tennant to Raymond Kreick when the big clock showed a second to go.

But then the folks out this way are spoiled for their football weather. A couple of drops of rain and the local grid fan will refuse to budge from his fireside. The schools know that, too, so you can't blame 'em for postponing a game for the benefit of the cash customers. After all, the colleges are more interested in luring a few sheckles into the gate than they are in "bettering the breed." They don't care If they never develop any superior mudders on the gridiron. On the other hand you can't condemn the high school officials for postponing games on rainy days.
