Baseball's biggest get-together, the annual meeting of the American and National leagues which draws owners, managers and players from all parti of the country, will be held in New York next week. The majors will hold separate conferences for two days beginning Tuesday, and on Thursday will gather under Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis shelfering wings for a joint session.

As usual, the league business which will be transacted behind closed doors will be sec- Washington, 7 to 0 Bobby Wilson Passes For Victory at St. Louis By the A3oef3ied Press ST. LOUIS, Dee. 8. Southern Methodist university's aerial stunt-ers struck swiftly Saturday for a second period touchdown, then held off Wa-shington University's equally air-minded Bears to a 7-0 victory on a snow-covered gridiron.

Approximately 6000 shivering fans watched the game, played for the benefit of the St. Louis Boys' club, a Catholic character-building orgalfzation. Just before the end of the second period, Bobby Wilson, 150-pund sparkplug of the Mustangs' attack, entered the game, hurled a 14-yard pass to Louis Smith, who stood in the end zone. Maurice Orr place-kicked the extra point. That ended the scoring, although each team had several excellent opportunities, especially the Bears, who had a decided edge in the last half, after being outplayed in the early stages.

Fail On Drivs After a featureless opening period, the Mustangs got their passes going. Jake Smith, Capt. Raymond Fuqua, Johnny Sprague and Harry Shuford soon advanced the ball deep into Washington territory. This foray failed, however, when Shuford fumbled on the Bears' 3 -yard line. While play remained In Washington territory, the Mustangs were unable to do anything lm portant until Wilson swung into action.

Smith, a big end, eluded the Bears and sneaked across the goal line to wait for Bobby's throw. Statistically, the Bears had all the better of it in the second half, but lacked touchdown dynamite. Runs of 43 and 25 yards by Capt. Harry Brown and his substitute, bounding Bob Hudgens. put some life in the freezing spectators and carried the ball deep Into S.M.U.

trritory. Smashing 'Back The Bears gained a first down on the Mustangs' 7-yard line, but their drive failed when Jake Smith leaped high into the air and knocked down a pass Don Wimberly intended for Mike Zboyovsky. Late In the last period Hudgens took a pass from Wimberly on S.M.U.'s 29-yard line, but on the next play Whitey Baccus intercepted a pass. Washington had 8 first downs to the Southerners' 8, totaj yardage of 242 to 269 and total yards from scrimmage of 167 to 120. Washing ton completed 6 of 15 passes for 75 yards, 6 more yards than the Mustangs made by completing out of 12.

Despite omission of several of the year's most conspicuous amateur performers, including W. Lawson Little Jr. of Stamford, holder of the British and American amateur golf championships, the convention of the Amateur Athletic Union Saturday approved restriction of the final list of candidates for the 1934 Sullivan Memorial medal to seven athletes. They were: William R. Bonthron of New York, world record holder for 1500 meters.

Lenore Kight of Pittsburgh, national women's free style swimming champion. Jack Medica of Seattle, men's national free style swimming title-holder.

Mahoney, 56 years old. a former all-around athlete, member of the 1008 American Olympic team and one-time national high jumn champion. Is now chairman of the New York regional labor board.

All three of the New York clubs are in the market for players. Bill Terry of the Giants wants a hitting outfielder, as who doesn't, and despite Bill's denials the boys insist Carl Hubbell is for sale. The Tankees want a slugging outfielder, a dependable pitcher and a second baseman. So does Casey Stengel of the Brooklyn flock.

THE past week saw the following, among others, digging up Andy Zilkefs awefully tended Country or.dary importance to the Frank Layden Scores for Irish Notre Dame Beats Sou Cal 14 to 0 On Coast By the Asuociated Pre LOS ANGELES. Dec. 8. The Layden brothers provided the vital spark as Notre Dame defeated Southern California 14 to 0 Saturday before 50,000 spectators. While Brother Elmer sat on the bench as coach, the younger Frank ran rampant in the first half to score both the Irish centers against the fighting Trojans and play a great defensive game as well.

Remindful of that day 10 years ago when Elmer dashed about the Rose Bowl intercepting Stanford passes, Frank was ail over the huge coliseum Saturday. The most important location he picked out was a spot 21 yards from the Trojans' goal in the first period when the score was nothing to nothing. A long pass from Bill Shakespeare came down and after he caught it, there was no more trouble about across for the score. In the second Frank plunged from over the two yard line after Wayne liner had made a sensational catch of a pass on the rebound. This time Andy Pilney was the pitcher.

Mart Beats Fredericksburg MART, Dee. W5 Led by Clifton, dazzling back, the Mart high school team romped on Fredericks-bnrg today in a Class game. 27-0.

Fields and Haams played good ball for the losers, who were outclassed by a perfectly functioning Mart club. "But certainly," answers this Mr Alfred Hampe. "And furthermore," he continues. "I will also give you, free of all charge, a beautiful bowl with two beautiful goldfish swimming around In it." I already have a couple of elephants In pastel shades, and for all I know they will be swimming around before very long, so I protest, as follows: "But I do not want any goldfish. What will I do with a couple of goldfish? They will not fit in with the scenic effects of Louie's Place, and anyway I am not hungry now." Mr.

Hampe wraps up the aspirin, takes the 48 cents and says firmly, "You have got to take the goldfish. Have you not purchased 49 cents worth of something? The rules state very plainly that you have got to take the goldfish." "I tell you I begin, but Mr. Hampe picks up a bowl with two goldfish in it and says admiringly, "Now, these are two very nice golcfish. I am sure you will iike these goldfiish. They are of the old Toledo goldfishes.

I remember once when I am a little fellow," ne continues, "my grandmother has a couple of these Toledo goldfishes, but she does not have them very long, because one night she forgets to feed the cat." I see that it is no use to argue with Mr, Alfred Hampe while he Is in this frame of mind, so I gather up the bowl with the goldfish in It and walk out. As I pass by the office, Mr. Buck Hood steps out. Seeing the goldfish, he observes in this manner: "Ah, bass! Wait a woment. Mr.

Jack Lamb will be here presently, and he will be very interested in these fine bass." But I have no time to wait for Mr. Jack Lamb, who doubtless will with to make a few expert casts, because I am in a hurry to get back to the scientific research with Lout. i Here's Golf for YOU By Morris Williams WELL, it ts like this. I am standing in Renfro's the other night and the reason I am standing In Renfro's is because I have a headache, and the reason I have this headache is because I spend too much time In Louie's Place, helping Louie decide which stuff to buy to replace his stock for the holiday-trade which Louie suspects will pick up more than somewhat in the next week or so. Louie explains that he has great respect for my scientific Judgment on such matters, and that he will provide his customers with nothing but the very best, unless, of course, he can get a very substantial discount on the other kind.

Now, I am always one to help out my friends in situations like this, so I provide the scientific Judgment while Louie provides the samples. I figure that what with winter coming on and all, that it will not hurt anything to fortify the system against colds and whatnot. Well, after a while Louie r.lso begins to feel like an expert, so we decide to have another of ail the samples we have had before, on the chance that maybe we have overlooked a bet. But by the time we get around to the end we decide that the quality of each and every sample is about tne same, and anyway, after all, what difference does it make? So after fitting ceremonies, I bid Louie good night and walk into Renfro's, as stated. There I see Mr.

Alfred Hampe, the genial clerk, in the back of the establishment and chart a course towards him. I state in well-mod ulated tone: "Alfred, I wish to pur chase some, aspirin. I am now acquiring a very severe headache." Mr. Hampe remarks thought fully, "I have Just what you wish. One hundred tablets for the sum of 40 cents." "Do you think that will be ooughr I Inquire wltn dignity, San Saba Man on First Hunt Bas Two Bucks He Finds in Comb SAN SABA, Dec.
