Ten Expands Freshman Athletics

CHICAGO (A')-The Big Tent
formally endorsed freshman inter-
collegiate competition in all sports
yesterday at a non-varsity level
for a two-year period, effective
the second semester or quarter-
around Feb. 1-in 1967.
Athletic directors and faculty
representatives, o p e n i n g the
league's annual winter meeting,
aproved Friday-Saturday seven-
ining double headers with eight
4 conference rivals and a Friday-
Saturday set of single nine-inning
games with one traditional rival.
Athletic director H. 0. (Fritz)
Crizler and faculty representative
Prof. Marcus Plant were Michi-
gan's representatives to the meet-
ing.
Freshman football was installed
in 1966 with two games granted
for each university in November.
This program will remain with
these4 other sports included:
Basketball, three games: base-
ball, three playing dates; hockey,
soccer, lacrosse and crew, three
meetings; two meets each for cross
country, fencing, gymnastics, golf,
swimming, wrestling and track.
Policy Decision
Whether all Big Ten members

week of September. Heretofore,
they could begin only when classes
opened at their respective schools.
Athletic directors proposed a
football traveling squad boosted
from 40 to 44. The matter was
tabled until the March business
meetings.
Eligibility Grants
An additional one-year varsity
eligibility was granted tackle Stan
Broadnax and end Tom Pullen of
Michigan and seven other Big Ten
gridders who sat out the season
for injury or illness.
Game Increase
In addition, the Big Ten ex-
panded conference baseball com-
petition from 15 to 18 games, re-,
vising the format of scheduling
for next spring.
The directors also approved a
recommendation by baseball coach-
as that the conference drop in-
clusion of a tie game in the
league standings as a half-game
won and half-game lost.
Under the schedule revision, the
weekend set of single games with
one traditional or neighborhood

rival would have such pairings as
Michigan-Michigan State; Illinois-
Purdue; Wisconsin-Northwestern;
Minesota-Iowa and Ohio State-
Indiana.
Seeking to stimulate league in-
terest in hockey, the directors rec-
ommended that Commissioner Bill

Reed explore the possibility of a
conference -- sponsored tourna-
ment.
The tournament would not nec-
essarily determine a conference
champion because outside schools
may be needed to round out the
field.

an institutional policy, said com-
missioner Bill Reed.
Freshman football practices in
1967 will begin on the first day

NEW YORK (AP)-The New York
Yankees traded outfielder Roger
Maris, the former home run king
and etwo-time America, League
Most Valuable Player, to the St.
Louis Cards yesterday for infielder
Charlie Smith, a former Met.
It was no secret that the Yanks,
who dropped to the cellar last sea-
son, were trying to unload the
32-year-old right fielder who broke
Babe Ruth's home run record of
60 in a season by clouting 61 in
1961. Maris that year drove in
142 runs and batted .269 in cap-
turing the MVP award for the sec-
ond straight season.
He won it first in 1960, his first
year with the Yankees afer being
traded by Kansas City, when he
clouted 39 homers, drove in 112,
runs and batted .283.

In the last couple of years he
has been bothered by an injured
right hand and has played spar-
ingly.
Last season he hit only .233 in
119 games with 13 homers and 43
RBI. He has a lifetime average
of .260.
Smith, 29, is a third baseman
who will try and fill the hole left
by the Yank's trade of slick-field-
ing Clete Boyer to Atlanta for
outfielder Bill Robinson.
He hit 10 homers, drove in 43
runs and batted .266 in 116 games
for the Cards last season.
A pro since 1967, he played
briefly for the Dodgers Phils and
White Sox before coming to the
Mets in 1964.
