16 THE TROY RECORD, MONPAY MORNING, JANUARY 21, IMS 4 Oldlimers Voted Into Baseball Hall Of Fame A JEPTHA RIXEY New York (AP) Four baseball starj of Hie golden pas1 outfielders Sam Rice and Elmer Flick, and pitchers Bppa (Jeptha) Rixey and John Clarkson, were named to the Hall of Fame yesterday by the unanimous vote cf the 12-man veterans' committee. The four, to be inducted formally Aug. 5 at the Hail of: Fame in Cooperstown, brought the total membership to 94. Clarkscn died in 1909, while Flick. 87.

Rice, 72, and Rixey, 71. still are alive. The veterans' group, headed bv chairman Warren Brown of Chicago, considers only players who have been inactive for at least 20 years. The Baseball Writers vote every 1 other year have jurisdiction over players active within the last 20 years. The writers do not vote in 1963.

Paul Kerr, president of the Hall of Fame, announced the unanimous vote the committee after an hour meeting yesterday. Clarkson and Flick come from the backlog of old- timers who played before 1931. Rice and Rixey were in the group that played between 1931 and 1943. Until last year, the writers' jurisdiction stretched 'back 30 years. Rice had been and Rixey fifth in their 19S2 voting.

Rice, born on farm near Morocco, now living in Ashton, played with Washington from 1915 through 1933 and finished with Cleveland in 1934. He sported a lifetime batting average of .322 and was just 13 hits shy of 3,000 when he quit. He also stole 351 bases. A great defensive outfielder who threw right-handed and batted left, Rice made a ELMER FLICK highly controversial catch in the 1925 World Series when he dived into the bleachers to snare a drive by Earl Smith. He played in three World Series with the Senators and batted .364.

Flick, now living in Warrensville Heights, Ohio, batted .315 for 13 seasons in the majors with Philadelphia in the National League and Cleveland in the American League. He won the American League batting title with .306, the lowest ever, in 1905, yet hit .378 in 1900 with Philadelphia and didn't win the championship. Flick, a left-handed hitter, was a fine fielder with a strong arm. He stole 342 bases. "You're fooling me," Flick said over the phone when Branch Rickey, a member of the veterans' committee, con'(acted him to tell him the news.

"I can't believe it. I had given up all hope. When Sam Crawford was voted in, he sent me a letter and said he couldn't see how he was getting in before me." At one time is was reported that Cleveland was offered a trade of Ty Cobb for Flick but turned it down. Clarkson, a righ-handed pitcher, compiled an incredible record of 54 victories and 16 defeats for the Chicago National League team in 1885 when he pitched 622 innings and wound up with a career record of 328-176. He pitched for Worcester, Chicago, Boston and Cleveland in the National League from 1882 to 1894.

He is one of 13 pitchers to win 300 or more games. Eight of the others are in the Hall of Fame. A key pitcher on championship teams in both Chicago and Boston, Clarkson's sale to Boston for $10,000, following the sale for the same price of King Kelly, caused a sensation in 1833. Rixey, a tall, gangling south-; paw with herky-jerky motion won 266 and lost 251 with the Phillies and Cincinnati in the National League from 1912 through 1933. He held the league record for games won by a lefty until Warren Spahn came along.

Although he was 42 when he quit, he still was competent pitcher. He retired with the complaint that the manager wasn't giving him enough work and was pitching him only against Pittsburgh. Rickey now lives in Terrace Park. Ohio. When contacted at his Maryland home, Rice said, "It's all right.

I knew it was coming sometime if 1 lived long enough- I'm glad it came now rather than in lour or five years." SAM RICE Celts Lakers Rap Knicks; Hawks Nip Boston (AP) Hot-shooting by rookie John Havlicek and veteran Clyde Lovellette helped the Boston Celtics forge a big early lead and the. champions then coasted to a 123-110 National Basketball Association victory over New York yesterday. Boston went into the second period leadin 30-20. In the next 8 minutes Havlicek and Lovellette accounted -for 23 of Boston's 28 points as New York fell 26 points behind, 58-32. The Knicks never got closer than 13 points.

Havlicek was the game's top scorer with 26 points. Lovellette contributed 14 more to Boston's well-balanced attack. Richie Guerin scored 20 points to pace New York. The Knicks played without rookie center Paul Hogue, who was. rushed back to New York after being stricken with appendicitis.

Hogue was operated on acute appendicitis shortly after arriving in New York and is expected to be out the rest of the season. NEW 3 11 HeinMhn 4 2 i 2 I 16 Resell 7 2 1 2 5.

Old Strike Zone Returns New York (AP)--Baseball finally decided, to give the pitchers a break after years of catering the hitters when the playing rules committee voted Saturday to restore the old shoulder-4o-k-nee strike zone. Charley Segar, chairman of the committee, pointed out that most recent rules had benefitted-'the batter.

The unanimous action of his 10- man committee indicadted thift in 'thinking. The rules in effect since 1950 defined the strike zone as the space above home plate between the batter's armpits and the top of his knees when he assumes his normal stance. The new rule, which will be effective this season, alters the rule to limit the strike- zone to the space "between the top of the batters shoulder and his knees." There is no top of the knee or bottom of the knee limitation in the new rules. Simply the knee. Cal Hubbard, supervisor of American League umpires and a member of the rules committee, said the new rules could make as much as 10 to 12 inches in the call of a pitch.

He pointed out that the wording about ''the knee" permitted the umpires to be. more flexible in their judgment. Ford Fleig, supervisor of National League umpires, who sat in on the meeting with the -proxy vote from absent Joe Brown of the Pittsburgh Pirates, said the poll of managers showed a consensus favored increasing the size of the strike zone. The pitchers did get a little setback, especially the no- windup 'men like Bob Turley, Don Larsen, Joey Jay and Harvey Haddix. The rules were changed to clarify their set and windup position in order to prevent them from taking unfair advantage of the baserunners.

Plante kicked out 23 shots, 10 in the final frame. Frank Mahovlieh increased his league-leading goal output, to 2S in the Toronto victory.
