BIG DEALS
IN PLAYERS
ARE MADE
By RALPH RODEN
NEW YORK, Oct. 12—jW—The'
major league’s annual post-season
reconstruction project is moving
along in high gear today.
Six teams have done some vig
orous house cleaning with the New
York Giants wielding the biggest
broom.
The Giants who finished a strong
third in the National League, pulled
off a $125,000 deal involving seven
minor league players.
In a drive to bolster their reserve
strength, the Polo Grounders pried
three players from the Champion
Oakland Oaks of the Pacific Coast
League.
Coming to the Giants are Cuban
Negro Catcher Ray Noble; Artie
Wilson, a Negro shortstop; and vet
eran righthander Allen Gettel.
Come to Coast
In exchange the Giants shipped
Cash, outfielder-first baseman Joe
Lafata and Bert Hass and right
handed pitchers Wes Bailey and
Bill Ayers from their pennant win
ning Minneapolis American Associa
tion farm to Oakland.
A quirk of the transaction is that
the Giants sold Noble to the Oaks
last year for probably less than
$10,000. Noble, valued at approxi
mately $75,000 by Oakland, was re
garded as the best catcher in the
Coast League. He hit .316 alid drove
in 79 runs.
Deal by Phillies
The Philadelphia Phillies also
snapped the rubber band on Presi
dent Bob Carpenter’s bankroll by
shelling out $40,000 to land a highly ('
regarded prospect, Tom Casagrande
cf Fordham University.
Casagrande, a 20-year-old left
hander, was sought by 10 other
major league clubs. He also is a
terrific hitter.
The majority of the remaining |
deals involved major league clubs!
and their farm units. The prime
motive was to protect prospects from
the minor league draft.
Another for Coast
Brooklyn sent pitcher Mai Mal
lette and cash to their Hollywood
Coast League affiliate for Jim Baxes,
one of the best fielding third base
men in the minors.
The Boston Red Sox sold the
contract of their former star right
hander Dave (Boo) Ferriss to their j
Louisville farm in the American j
Association.
The Sox also purchased A1
Richter, good-field no-hit shortstop j
and pitcher Ben Flowers from Louis- j
ville.
HUSKY HALFBACK
SUFFERS INJURY
SEATTLE, Oct. 12—UR—As it must
to all football coaches, injury has
come to plague Washington’s coach
Howie Odell.
Leo Lokovsek, defensive halfback
from Enumclaw, Wash., suffered a
chest injury in a stiff scrimmage
yesterday afternoon and may be
out of Saturday’s tilt with Oregon
State at Portland.

FOOTBALL
PICKINGS
By HAROLD CLAASSEN
NEW YORK, Oct. 12—And
you think that Coach Frank Leahy
should fee) bad because Purdue de
feated Notre Dame last Saturday?
That was only one defeat. This
pillar of pigskin prognostication had
25 such setbacks the same day—its
worst record in eight years.
But Notre Dame hopes to start
\ new victory string Saturday.
Army vs Michigan: The Cadets
appear to have the edge. Army.
Oklahoma vs Texas: Texas is re
ported to have only mediocre backs
but the best line, from end to end,
.n college football. That should be
more than enough to end the Okla
homa victory string at 23. Texas.
Santa Clara vs Stanford: This
simply isn’t the Santa Clara team
of last year. Stanford.
Ohio State vs Indiana: Ohio State.
Miami vs Purdue: Purdue.
Notre Dame vs Tulane: Tulane
would like to avenge that 46-7 past
ing of a year ago but a new Notre
Dame victory string should be
started here. Notre Dame.
Mississippi vs Vanderbilt: Van
derbilt.
California vs Southern California:
Pappy Waldorf has 33 in shape for
his one. He should get almost as
nany points. California.
Wake Forest vs North Carolina:
North Carolina.
Navy vs Princeton: Princeton.
Oklahoma A. and M. vs Southern
Methodist: Southern Methodist.
Mississippi State vs Georgia:
Georgia.
Holy Cross vs Colgate: Holy Cross.
William and Mary vs Michigan
State: Michigan State.
Cornell vs Harvard: Some easterr
critics think Cornell is Army’s equal
in football ability, Cornell.
Washington over Oregon State
Washington State over Montana.
The others, in a hurry:
Friday Night
Alabama over Furman, Boston U
over St. Bonaventure. Denver over
Utah, Detroit over Marquette, Illi
nois over UCLA.

HEAVYWEIGHT
COAST CHAMP
MAY BE BEAN
SPOKANE, Wash., Oct. 12—(^1—If
the Washington and California Box
ing Commissions don’t change their
minds, Willie Bean, 207-pound Los
Angeles mauler, is the new coast
heavyweight champion.
Bean scored a technical kayo over
196-pound Frank Buford, Oakland
in the fifth round of a scheduled
12-rounder last night.
The end came when Buford sank
to his knees after a gash had Ween
opened over his right eye with a
left hook by Bean.
Prior to the fight, the California
and Washington commissions an
nounced they would recognize the
winner as coast champion. Oregon
has no commission.
NEW MANAGER OF
WHITE SOX WILL
HAVE FREE REIN
CHICAGO, Oct. 12 — i£i — Paul
Richards’ first task as the new Chi
cago White Sox Manager—the fifth ;
in five years—will be selection of a ;
coaching staff.
If Richards reshuffles, one of
those who might get the ax is the
White Sox perennial, Luke Appling.,
What to do with Luke, who has;
been with the organization since |
1930, may prove to be Richards’ ]
most touchy task in his debut as j
pilot.
The 41-year-old Richards (he’ll
be 42 in November) apparently is
the type who gets what he wants. j
Appreciating the fact that Sox man
agers seem to li^e short lives, Rich- 1
ards demanded and finally received
a two-year contract. A two-year
pact was not offered him a year j
ago when the Sox were thinking
of luring him away from Seattle
in the Pacific Coast League to re- |
olace Jack Onslow.
Richards also has said that he
picks his coaches only on the basis j
of ability and with no regard to |
personal likes and dislikes.
General Manager Frank Lane
and Vice President Chuck Comiskey
if the Sox emphasized in announc- i
ng Richards appointment that the
veteran minor league skipper would
lave free rein.
Corriden, who guided the Paleho.se .
to sixth place this season is ex
oected to return to the Sox coach- ^
ing lines.
Richards is quite a versatile ger.t.
He was a big league catcher with
the Philadelphia Athletics, Detroit
Tigers. New York Giants and had
a three game whirl with the Brook
lyn Dodgers before making his first
managerial attempt at Atlanta.
While there, from 1939 to 1942, his
Atlanta club won two Southern
Association pennants and one post- j
season playoff.
Richards piloted Buffalo in 1947- j
1948 and 1949, taking one Interna- i
tional League pennant. Last season ;
his Seattle team landed in sixth,
place in the PCL.

OREGON SIATESS
ON HURT LiSTS
CORVALLIS, Ore.. Oct. 12—UPI—
Kip Taylor scraped the bottom of
the Oregon State barrel for replace
ments for two injured quarterbacks
and came up today with a former
defensive player and an untried but
promising sophomore.
Out of Saturday’s game in Port
land with the Washington Huskies
are Gene Morrow, a top-rate passer,
and Carlos Houck. Taylor says he’ll
probably start Newt Schneider
against the Huskies and hold Perry
Sargeant, the sophomore, for re
lief work.
