IT’S A FOOTBALL, GENTS—Waco, Tex .—George Sauer (left) and Sam Boydexamine a football as though they’d never seen one before after hearing thenews that Bbyd had been named head coach at Baylor University, succeedingSauer. The latter, former head coach a t Navy before coming to Baylor, retainedthe post of athletic director. Boyd, a B aylor alumnus, was end coach of theBears, whose supporters have been increasingly dissatisfied with Sauer’s rec-ord. Under the former Nebraska back Baylor won 38 games, lost 21 and tied 3.The Bears had a 5-5 record this season. —AP Wirephoto. *

Sam Boyd 'Speechless'Over Succeeding Sauer

WACO, Tex., Dec. 6 UP) —SamBoyd, who said. “I'm the luck-iest son-of-a-gun that ever livedto get this job." tcek over today

as head football coach of Bay-;lor University, his alma mater.

He succeeded George Sauer,who retired from coaching butwill continue as athletic direc-tor. Boyd was given a three-year contract at an undisclosedsalary.

In a move so sudden it leftBoyd virtually speechless except'

to say that he would take thejob. the athletic committee ofthe university yesterday votedunanimously to elevate Boydfrom end coach to head coachand to meet Sauer’s request thathe be relieved of parts of hisdual job as coach and athleticdirector.

Dr. W. R. White, president of|Baylor, said Sauer made therequest prior to the footballgame with Southern MethodistNovember 19. But it had beena well-guarded secret.

Boyd was a star end on Baylorlteams of 1936. 1937 and 1936. 1and the passing combination ofBilly Patterson to Sam Boydwrote bright history in Golden!Bear gridiron annals. In 1938 1

he caught 40 passes from Pat-terson. He played pro footballwith the Pittsburgh Steelers in1939-40. was in the Navy four:

years, was in business at Hous-ton for three years, then wentto Baylor in 1949. working in adrive to raise funds for Baylor’s;50.000-seat stadium. Boyd be-came freshman coach in 1950and m four years compiled arecord of 16 victories in 20games, having an undefeatedteam in 1953.

Sauer, who has a five-year

contract starting next year, wascoach of Baylor for six seasons,showing a record of 38 victories.19 defeats and three ties. Baylor

lost fewer games than any otherschool except Texas in the South-iwest Conference during thatperiod. Texas also lost 19. Sauer,came to Baylor from Navy in1950. He previously had coachedat New Hampshire and Kansas.

The 41-year-old Boyd, a tall,lanky blond, said it would beseveral days before he could

i complete hts staff and he prob-ably would release some mem-bers and add some. But the

•change will be only in football.•Coaches of all other sports willinot be disturbed. 1

tions announced last Saturdayof Athletic Director Pat Preston *and Football Coach Tom Rogers.!and the fact students fear anathletic de-emphasis program isunderway at the college.

While police and highwaypatrolmen the crowd infairly good order. Dr. Tribblespoke to it for about a half-hour.

Dr. Tribble, constantly pep-pered with questions, told thestudents: "No effort is being

made at Wake Forest to de-emphasize athletics.”

He assured them he personallyfavored the retention of Rogersand the entire athletic staff. Hespecifically mentioned, in addi-tion to the football coach. Base-ball Coach Taylor Sanford, Pres-ton, and Basketball Coach Mur-ray Greason.

During his talk the crowd re-peatedly hurled such questions

land statements as: "We don’twant to be in the North StateConference,” and “Why can’twe get great athletes like weused to?”

The North State is a con-ference of smaller colleges in'North Carolina. .

Minors Suffer in TransitionBut Won't Die, Trautman Says

CHICAGO. Dec. 8 (A*).—GeorgeTrautman. head of the 30 strug-gling minor leagues, said todaythe minors were in a period oftransition but he didn't thinkanybody was going to permitminor league baseball to be dis-solved.

“Six years ago the majorsowned 207 minor league clube,"Trautman said at a press con-ference. “Now the majors ownonly 40 clubs but still control,the same number of players.

“Maybe the majors havespread their talent a little too'thin in the minors. If the onlyidea of the minors is to channeltalent to the majors, we are toowidespread. I know where wewant to come out—we want topreserve our structure.

“A major league scout is in-terested in only one thing: ‘lsthe player a potential majorleaguer?’ There are plenty ofgood ball players who wouldmake fine minor league players

but do not have major leaguepotential.

“Some think we have toO|many leagues, although we havedropped to 30 from an all-timeIhigh of 59 in 1949. When sixcities come to you with interestin forming a league, it is a diffi-cult thing to say no.

ITerp Five GelsScare BeforeTopping Alumni

Maryland’s basketball teamifailed to take the alumni seri-ously last night, excusablyenough, and the footloose andfancy-free style of the grads

gave the Terps a scare beforethe varsity finally won, 75-61.

As somebody said later, aboutall the game proved was thatBozey Berger, Maryland’s first;All-American, became the firstplayer to have played competi-tive basketball In all three ofMaryland's gyms.

He played In old gym-armory,In Ritchie Coliseum and lastnight in the new fieldhouse.Berger scored two field goals,too, so he has scored in all threegyms.

The Alumni had a pretty good;ball club on the floor most of!the time, with most of the play-!ers in pretty good condition, and;led, 35-34. at halftime. Bob:Everett, Bob Dllworth, DaveWebster, Morris Levin and Lee;Brawley clicked as a unit and!they scored 53 of the points.

Bob O’Brien hit for 25 for the!varsity', making nine out of 14;shots and seven out of eight

from the free-throw line. Bob|Kessler and John Sandboweradded 14 and 12 points and again

were the top men off the back-; boards.

i Maryland plays William andMary Thursday night. Everett,who is assistant to Coach BudMilliken this year, will scout theIndians against George Wash-;ington tonight. Maryland alsoplays at home Saturday night!against North Carolina.

Irish Might Have GotSooners' Best Back

By MERRELL WHITTLESEY ,If one family vote had gone!

The letter was one of apprecia-

McDonald, a junior who made;the AP’s All-America team, set{state records in football, basket-ball and track In high school and,according to his mother, hadmany college scholarship offers.

He scored 16 touchdowns forthe Sooners this year, the samenumber Ed Vereb scored forMaryland.

Jimmy Harris, the Oklahomaquarterback, is the most danger-ous runner Coach Bud Wilkin-son has had at that position.

Last year Harris had a 5.8rushing average as a sophomoreland this year he averaged 4.1yards per carry. However, theOklahoma quarterbacks do verylittle passing, and he escapesthe frequent losses that ruin thel-ushing averages of most split-Tquarterbacks.- The Oklahoma halfbacks domost of the passing. Harristhrew only 20 all year, four fewer ithan McDonald.

Frick DisclosesU. 5. Denial ofTYTesfCase

. Continued From Page C-lhave exhausted every idea. We’reopen for suggestions.

“We‘worked all summer longto get ground rules for the big

; test,” he said, “and just when we. thought ne’d be able to gothrough with It, they pulled out

' the rug from under us. They; said you can’t do this and if you

. do. you’re open to suit. But theywon't tell us what you can do.

{ lt’s not the Justice Department! we’re concerned about, but those; radio stations. Even if you win' every one of those suits, you can

, go broke."Frick did not go into details

i regarding the majors’ proposalto the Government, but it was

i believed the plan called for re-I striction of telecasts and, broad-i casts of big league games out-i side a club's home territory limitiof 50 miles. The majors hadplanned to offset that by tele-

; casting a “game of the week”i over a national network. ThisPlan, if consummated, would

' have brought in $3 million, half1 of which was to have been tick-eted to the minors. That pro-

-1 posal. too. reportedly was re-jected by the Justice Department.

; For years the minor* havebeen urging the commissioner toundertake a test case on radio

1 and TV, but fear of the JusticeDepartment’s interpretation of“conspiracy and collusion” has

1 held Frick back.1 “It’s almost Impossible to passa major-minor league rule,”Frick said, "because that is con-strued as collusion.”

Many Appreve Fee TVThe problem of harnessing

radio and television broadcastsi also was an important item onthe baseball survey. A total of

i 20.000 interviews were sampledi at a cost of 86,000, plus expenses.They showed that about half ofthose Interviewed would favor aradio-TV blackout if baseballwas being threatened by thetelecasts and 37 per cent weuldbe willing to pay a nominal fee(25 to 50 cents) to view gameson a “pay-as-you-eee” plan,

i The survey also showed that. 69 per cent felt radio and tele-

I vision of baseball increased in-. terest in the game. There was

• a definite feeling that telecast-I lng of the games in minor league

[ areas was harmful to the minors’; attendance.

It indicated, said the report,’ that general interest in baseball

. is increasing, with more par-. ticlpants than ever playing un-. der better conditions.

Halfback Scooter Scudero, ’whose eye was gashed in a head-
