PAGE THREE 9' 1INIAA BR1AINVDD SLFISH': Pro Ball Will Bell Blasts Crisler for Pro Ball Stand Take Ritter AJ Bert Bell, commissioner of the National Football League, lashed out at members of the National Collegiate Athletic Association in a statement concerning the rela- tions between the two organiza- tions. Four high college officials were stamped as "ringleaders" in a move to "severe years of harmo- nious relations between college and pro ball." The list of men who were called "isolationists and selfish men" in- cluded Herbert O. (Fritz) Crisler, the University of Michigan's athlet- Jensen Sets Unenviable Mark BOSTON (JP)-Jackie Jensen of the Boston Red Sox got into the lajor League record books yes- terday, but he isn't going to cele- brate the event. Jensen hit into his 32nd,-double play of the year in the first inning of the first game of a doubleheader with the Philadelphia Athletics at Fenway Park. The previous major league high for a season was 31 set by Bobby 41 Doerr, formerly of the Red Sox. ic director; Kenneth L. (Tug) Wil- son, commissioner of the Big Ten; Tom Hamilton, athletic director at the University of Pittsburgh; and Ted Payseur, athletic direc- tor at Northwestern University. Bell Defends NFL Apparently angered at recent attacks on the pro league's new policy to televise games on Satur- day afternoons and evenings, Bell spoke out against the four off i- cials, stating that they were upset over the National League's "elab- borate nationwide television pro- gram." Bell added that the NFL in- tends to "give the public all the television we can." Crisler termed Bell's steam-let- ting at himself and the three other officials as nothing to get excited over. "We're not declaring war on professional football. We are try- ing to separate all that is extra- neous from college football, and if trying to promote our own game is isolationist, I presume we are guilty." Bell announced further that Wil- son, Payseur, Hamilton and Crisler and others are set against unlimit- ed television of grid games because Notre Dame would undoubtedly get most of the offers for televis- ing of their games, "These selfish r ;' I t T 1 t l men have banded together to' keep Notre Dame in the same boat with them," he explained, and added that "they hide behind that 'pro- tect the small college' stuff, but When th you don't notice them scheduling around wl small colleges to help out, do Fisher will you?" he had cou Crisler argued Bell's point on igan in its the question of restricted televi- Ten Confe sion.
