Six NFL, Five AAC Players On AP All-Pro Team Sports Section Dec. 12, 1D4T Page 17 Comics, Radio, Classified Press Box By BILL LUCAS This writer can readily understand why Bill Veeck, prexy of the Cleveland Indians, is disgruntled over the latest Boston Red Sox deal in which the Bosox lured speedy Stan Spence, Senator outfielder, for only a reserve outfielder and a rookie second baseman. Veeck attempted to get Spence last spring, Manager Lou Boudreau admitting to this writer that he could make good use of him in the Tribe outer garden. is quoted as saying he offered Clark Griffith a deal that would sound fantastic in view of the players it got from Boston. It was only Tuesday that Veeck acquired Second Backer oJhnny Ber, ardino from the Browns for Outfielder George Mctkovich and $50,000.

But any theory that Veeck Intended to use Bcrardino as bait for Spence can be knocked into a cocked hat as Johnny had announced he was quitting bascbnll for the movies when the Brownies sent him to tho Senators for Second Baseman Gerry Priddy, Commissioner Chandler subsequently ruling that Priddy be returned to Washington. Tho Indians can't use two second basemen. So the other theory is that Veeck was ready to part with Joe Gordon for Spence despite the fact that this would break np the great Lou Boudroau- Gordon double play combine. The tribe made great progress last year despite the fact that Bobby Feller didn't equal his 1946 performance. In 1946 the Tribe finished in sixth place, games behind the pace-setting Red Sox.

This year they placed fourth, 17 games behind the front-running Yankees. Cleveland's great need is another good outfielder and one or two more winning pitchers. Veeck knows that but just can't seem to click on a deal to get them. The recent Red Sox deals will make Joe McCarthy's gang the team to beat next year. Even the Yanks arc moaning over the recent trades.

Nobody was surprised when the majors turned down Coast league request to be regarded as a third major circuit. The proposed plan to include two Coast teams in each major loop will also probably be rejected. Enke Close To Mark NEW YORK, Dec. 12. (IP)--Half back Fred Enke, of the University of Arizona, a sharpshooter with the pigskin, zoomed from obscurity at the start of the season to become the nation's leader in total offense.

In 10 games, Enke piled up 1,941 yards by passing and rushing, the second highest mark in collegiate football history, the National Collegiate Athletic bureau reported. His accomplishment had been exceeded only by Frankie Sinkwich of Georgia, who gained 2,187 yards in 1D42. When tho 1047 season began, Enkc was sitting on the Arizona bench as a reserve. He quickly began rolling up yardage, mainly through the aerial route, and assumed the offensive leadership of tho Wildcats. The skillful halfback ran up 1,406 yards in gains on 8S pass completions in 184 attempts and netted 535 yards on 145 rushes.

He tossed for 11 touchdowns and scored nine himself. Enke's most impressive performance was against the co-champion of Hie Big Six, Kansas. In that game he was responsible for a total gain of 364 yards. His performance was the second best of the season in a single game. Top record was 374 by Bob Gage of Clemson against Auburn.

In the final game of the season, against Utah, Enke passed Charley Conerly of Mississippi, who had been the nation's total offense leader for seven consecutive weeks. Conerly finished the season with 1,784 yards to Ills credit. Kn.ke accounted for 58.9 per cent of Arizona's total offense. NY Rangers In Tie For Fourth By ASSOCIATED PRESS The New York Rangers personally are attempting to bring about their managers' preseason prediction that the Montreal Canadlens will not make the National hockey league's Stanley cup playoffs this season. Manngcr Frank "Boucher's Rnngors, striving for their first playoff berth in six campaigns, pulled Into a fourth place tie with Montreal last night by dc- frnting llio Canadians, '1-2.

The win was the Rangers' fourth over the Canacliens in five starts. They battled the Canadicns, who have won tho circuit's last four pennants, to a 4-4 tie in their only other meeting Wednesday night. Phil Watson, a native of Montreal and former member of tho fading champions, sparked tho Hanger attack by scoring throe goals. Grunt Warwick, whoso last minute enabled the Rangers to tie the Canadicns Wednesday, scored the other goal and also drew two assists. Watson's three goals brought his total for the current campaign to six, the same number he collected during the entire 184647 season.

Wildcats Open Against Alumni The University of Arizona cagers will tune up for next Thursday's battle.with Baylor with games here tonight and tomorrow against an Alumni team headed by Marvin Borodkin, varsity guard on last year's team. The main game will start at 8:30 with the preliminary between Frank Sancet's squad and the Williams field Fliers carded for 8:30 p.m. Coach Fred Enko lias indicated that Morris "Udnll and Johnny Padclford will be at forward, Jumping Joo Cherry at center, and Johnny Mclntyre and Billy Mann at guard. Footballers Link Richmond and Cecil Crouch, for- wnnls; Junior Crinn, center; and Fred Enkc, and Marvin Scott, subsequently enter the ga7iic. Interest will be centered around Richmond, who is handicapped by a bad knee injured in football.

He was the leading scorer on the team last year and if it is indicated in tonight's game that his knee cannot stand competition it will be a serious blow to Wildcat cage hopes. The Alumni went through a tune- up Wednesday night when they downed Davis-Monthan, 56-33, at the air base gym with Center Boyd Morse setting the pace with 17 points. Borodkin clumped in 1C and forward Leo Voyles 12. Others who will see action with ho Alumni are Al Klvel, Tommy Allin, Shorty Stephens, Hilly Peterson, and Art Schaefer. Several of the Alumni are not grads but have boon recruited to help tho cause.

Williams field turned up for the squad by downing Davis-Monthan, 47-36, last night at the air base. A. Alberts and Schozzer led the Fliers with 13 and eight points, respectively, while' Thorsen paced the locals with 10. Badgers Invade Tempe Tonight By SKIBO M'KAY Coach Bud Doolen takes his Tucson high Badger cagers to Tempe for their first out-of- town game when they meet the Buffs at 8 p. m.

today. Tomorrow they journey to play the North Phoenix quintet. The team will leave directly from Tempe for Phoenix. The starting lineup will be the same that first faced the Nogales Apaches last week in a 63-29 Badger win. Only five reserves will make the trip along with the starters.

They will be: Rudy Castro, who played a nice game in the final quarter against Nogales, Ed Fender, Bill Kimmeries, Gayle Smith and George Nicholson. The manager will be Bill Pay ton. Roger Johnson and Jim Johnston will start at the forward posts, Brit Smith and Syl Taylor will hold down the guards and Ned Darnell will jump at center. Most of the practice week has been devoted to the fundamentals of the game and correcting of mistakes made last week; Comprising one of the tallest teams in the state with an average starting height of six feet one inch, the Badgers still had trouble under the basket. This week Doolen stressed the value of the height and of keeping the ball over their heads when shooting from that particular position.

A lot will depend on the point makers--Darnell and Johnson. Last year they were both good for 12-15 points each game. Things known for sure about the Buffs is that Coach Chet McNabb has four returning lettermen and a fast scrappy club.

The closest score of the afternoon and also the lowest was totaled on the Safford court where' the home team Rockets dropped a 10-6 game to the visiting Mansfeld Vets.

So effective was the Vet defense that the losers failed to tally until the last quarter. As it was, the fast- finishing Rockets threw a scare into the winners before the game ended, but the Mansfelds, paced by the seven points of Alex Vergara. -had mough edge to come out on top. At Mansfeld, the most lop-sided game of the day was between the Safford Leopards and the Mansfeld Wildcats. The Leopards were off to a flying start and triumphed 49-2.

Fernando Flmbres racked up 20 points in leading the Leopards to victory and Dan Tobias was the lone scorer for the losers. Another game that was a shutout until the final period was the tussle between the Roskruge Termites and the Mansfeld Jackrabbits.

Haas Leads In Miami Tourney By WILBUR MIAMI, Dec. 12. Fred Haas, of'New Orleans, believes good wood shots straight down the middle pay off as well as putting in-this game of golf. But yesterday, i-Iaas put the two together and, came up with a five under par 65 to lead the field of 230 golfers at the end of the first 18 holes of play in.the $10,000 Miami Open golf tournament, Haas, son of a veteran pro and an insurance salesman, didn't get around to insuring his game, for 44 other golfers who equalled par 70 or better over the Miami Springs course were breathing hard on his neck.

Virtually daring the former National intercollegiate champion to falter was sturdy Ed Furgol of Detroit, who like Haas hasn't done a whole lot since he turned pro. Furgol has a 6, which included a 31 on the back nine. Sammy Byrrl, of Detroit, who once was a baseball player for the New York Yankees, was two strokes behind Haas. Still another stroke away at OS were Glenn Teal of Jacksonville, Walt Burkemo of Detroit; Bob Plamilton of Evanston, Jimmy Demaret of Ojai, 'Amateur Frank Stranahari of Toledo, Ohio; and Jim Milward of Three Lakes, Wis.

WILDCATS ENKE, SMITH QRW RECOGNITION Fair Truckle May Enter Match Race By GAIL FOWLER NEW YORK, Dec. 12. (fl)--The National Collegiate Athletic 'bureau wrote down Charley Conerly and Barney Poole of Mississippi as the greatest collegiate football battery" in modern history. Never before, recited the bureau, did the same school provide the champion in both classifies- tions, and never before did both set all-time records. The year 1947 also supplies two other great statistical batteries Johnny Ranch and "catcher" Dan Edwards of Georgia, who finished second in their respective classification; and hurl- cr Pred Enke, and receiver John Smith of Arizona, who finished third and fourth in their listings, respectively.

Conerly set a new record in pass completions with 133 out of 233 attempts, to smash the old mark of 114 set by Wilson "Bud" Schwenk of Washington university (St. Louis) in 1941. His completion percentage of 57.1 per cent erased the all-time record, of 55.7 by Davey O'Brien of Texas Christian in 193S for passers throwing 150 or more. 1941 and his passes caught out for eight were Poole's 52 catches rubbed Henry Stanton's mark of 50 Arizona in touchdown high for the year. Enke's were the most productive, bringing 1,406 yards, only 51 short of the all-time Jiiark of 1,457 shared by O'Brien in 1.938 and Schwenk in 1941.

Only other hurler ahead of Enke is Paul Governali of Columbia, who passed for 1,442 yards in 1942. Arizona's receiver Smith was the 1947 top man In yards with 568. All-American- Halfback Bob Chap- pwis of Michigan, although ranking 2Sth on competitions, set an all-time record for what the bureau calls "economy in forward passing" by getting the "most for the least." He completed 48 of 84 for 976 yards and -11 touchdowns, for an average per attempt of 11.6 yards. The old mark was 11.2 set by Hal McCullough of Cornell in yardage was To Chandler, Ajo seventh Of the top five touchdown passers, only two were among ers back. the leaders--Conerly with 18 and Ranch with 10.

Others were John Capnto, Utah State, 12; Chappuis and Frank Burns, Rut- gcrs, 11 each and Bobby Gage, Clemson, 10. Caputo only completed 42 passes, but if you can figure out a way to have half a completion, one out of every three and a half Caputo completions went for a touchdown. Bucky Hatchett of Rutgers was runnerup to Poole in touchdown passes caught with seven, followed by John Smith of Arizona and Vito Ragazzo, also of Rutgers, with six PRO SECOND TEAM E--Ken Kavanaugh, Chicago Bears.

Ends Prom Conference Both ends, Mac Speedie of the By DOUGLAS LOVELACE HONOLULU, Dec. 12. gambling in the Pacific coast professional foot' ball league was under investigation by league officials today.

Detective Capt. Eugene Kennedy said "several players" on the Hawaiian Warriors club admitted betting on themselves to win. Ken- ford of the Yankees, are from the conference as is Bruno Banducci, a guard with San Francisco 49ers. Two National league tackles, Al Wistert of Philadelphia Eagles and Dick Huffman of the Los Angeles Rams, were selected. Riley Matheson of the Los Angeles Rams made the team as guard for the fourth straight year while Clyde "Bulldog" Turner of the Chicago Bean; was chosen as center for.the fifth time.

Wistert made the first team for the fourth straight season. The team consists of 10 men who are at least six feet tall, Banducci of the 49ers being the smallest at five-eleven. In weight the 11 men chosen average 208 pounds with the, line averaging 214 pounds and the backfield 190. Beside Matheson and Wistert tho only repeaters from 194.S are Sanders and Turner. Four players who drew the most support were Sanders, Van Buren, Turner and Matheson with Wistert and Speedie close behind.

Sanders, most valuable man on the Yankees and possible in the entire conference, was a real triple threat during the season. Besides calling the plays from single wing he punted, passed and ran the pigskin. Set Scoring Mark Sanders set a new pro record in his 13th game of the season when he scored three touchdowns against Buffalo- for a total of 19, surpassing the mark of IS set 10 games by Van Buren 1945. Among Sanders' other outstanding feats of the campaign was his 98- yard 'return of -a kickoff' against the Los Angeles Dons and.a record 84-yard punt against Cleveland. Van Buren, one of the leading touchdown scorers in the National league, was the big gun for the Philadelphia Eagles all season.

He was a bear at returning kickoffs. The one best remembered was his 95-yard runback for a touchdown against'the Washington Redskins late in September. A workhorse at carrying the ball, the former Louisiana state player topped the National league backs in yardage along the ground. For formation quarterbacking a coach with such an All- Pro team at his command could alternate between Luckman of the Bears and Graham of the Browns. Graham was practically nnam- mously chosen as the best conference passer in a circuit that featured such aerial artists as Bud Schwenk of the Baltimore Colts, Frankie Albert of San Francisco and George Ratterman of the Buffalo Bills.

Graham had only six of his first 202 passes intercepted and was Browns to division title in the conference. Luckman barely beat out Sammy Washington Red- and Joe Muffly each have won Baugh two legs on the Mansfeld-Adams skins, we 101 trophy and only require another the TM win for permanent possession, a Lerua has two legs on the Acme to Baugh, more successful team. When award. Merle Stowe's record on the two stars met October, is Luckman led the Bears to a 5Q-20 231x250 net. Both matches" will victory, completing 22 out of 31 passes.

League Passers Other National league passers who starred during the season were Tommy Thompson of the Eagles, Paul of -the Now York Giants, Paul Christman of the The ends feature two brilliant under a territorial statute making it a misdemeanor to wager on an athletic contest. Kennedy said no bribery was involved. The Warriors won the Pacific Coast league championship Sunday by defeating the Los Angeles Bulldogs 7 to 6. An exhibition game scheduled for next Sunday was called off when the Warriors' board of directors received reports that some squad members were gambling on games. The team's general manager, Francis J.

Brickncr, said all of them denied placing bets on any opposing team. He emphasized that players of the Los Angeles Bulldogs were not Involved in any way. Bricker said the case probably will have to be reviewed by a national professional league commissioner, because the Pacific Coast league operates under tho rules of that organization. The national rules were tightened after a bribery attempt scandal in New York a year ago, on the eve of the title game between the New York Giants and tho Chicago Bears. The National league players.

Merle Hapes and Frank Filchock, were suspended indefinitely by Commissioner Bert Bell, who found them guilty "of actions detrimental to the welfare" of the league and professional football. This was an outgrowth of an attempt by Alvin Paris to fix the game. Paris and three associates were convicted of attempted bribery. Rufus Pacific Coast league commissioner, is expected to arrive- tonight from San Francisco to aid in the local investigation, according to President Ben. Dillingham the Hawaiian Athletic Corp.

The corporation owns the Warriors. Hawaiian gamblers made the hometown Warriors an 18-point favorite for last Sunday's title game--a game they took by one point--despite the fact the Warriors lost to Los Angeles 34 to 35 the preceding week. Brickner said players him they thought themselves three touchdowns better than the Bulldogs, and that some acknowledged betting on themselves. Phoenix Works On Match Race PHOENIX, Dec. 12.
