Training Camp Briefs
St. Petersburg, Fla., March 4—(UP)—Rookie Glenn Nelson, leading hitter of the Piedmont league last year, was being given a thorough trial at first base today by the St. Louis Cardinals while regular Stan Musial continued his holdout.
The Cardinals all had the same complaints today—blisters, sore muscles, and aching backs. Manager Eddie Dyer chuckled at his players' disconfiture and said he wouldn't worry unless something more serious occurred. He sent the Cards through infield, outfield, and batting practice Wednesday under a blazing sun.

Jumping to a seven-point lead in the first quarter, the Aces High played the "Y" on even terms for the rest of the contest to come through with their win. Bob Clark, hustling forward for the Aces, tallied 15 points to lead the winners to victory. DeLuna played well for the winners as he marked up seven points. Bob Payne swished the nets for 12 points to lead the "Y" and Hardy Scheuerman racked in seven for second place honors. The Aces will meet Beta Theta Pi, fraternity "A" champions, in a playoff game tonight for the championship.
A terrific last half rally by the Trousdale Tigers earned them the "B" ream championship. Trailing 20 to 6 at the midway point, the Tigers suddenly caught fire and outscored the Phi Delt's 25 to 9 in the last half to win the contest. Gurtner counted 13 points, all in the sizzling last half, to lead the Tigers to their championship. McIntire racked in nine points for second honors.
The ordinarily smooth working Phi Delt's were completely baffled by the Tigers defense in the last half and scored only three field goals in that period. Hedrick marked up eight points for the Phi Delt's.
Bradenton, Fla. — The Boston Braves' holdout list was reduced to three players today after outfielder Myron McCormick and rookie pitcher Al Treichel agreed to terms by long distance telephone. Still outside the fold are pitcher Johnny Sain, infielder Nanny Fernandez, and outfieldier Carvel "Bama" Rowell.

Tampa, Fin.—The signing of pitcher Johnny Vander Meer and Catcher Ray Lamanno today left only two members of the Cincinnati Reds still not in camp—Augie Galan and Dutch Mele.
Move Cat-Ag Game To Stillwater
The playoff battle between Kansas State and Oklahoma A. and M., originally scheduled for Kansas City's Municipal auditorium March 15, will be played in Stillwater, Okla. "sometime before March 15," it was reliably reported in Kansas City today.
The reason for the change is that the loser of the game will be invited to play in the New York invitational which starts on Mar. 11. No neutral court is available for the Wildcat-Cowboy game before March 15.
NAIB Field Swells To 21
Kansas City, Mo., March 4—(UP)
Manhattan college of New York pulled out of the N.A.I.B. tourney because of a Kansas City racial discrimination clause, but five more teams had entered the event today to swell the list to 21.
Manhattan's director of athletics announced the withdrawal Wednesday, and said the action was based solely on their racial issue. There are no Negroes on the Manhattan team, but Manhattan felt compelled to withdraw in protest of the clause.
Manhattan was replaced immediately by Siena college of Loudonville, N.Y. Siena (21-6) will represent the New York-New Jersey area.
A sizzling Kirksville Teachers' team stormed into the tournament as the Missouri entry with a runaway win last night over Central college of Fayette, Mo., in a playoff tilt. Kirksville boasts a 29-1 record.
Denver university Pioneers were certified among the five new entries. Denver enjoyed a great season with victories over such teams as Notre Dame, St. Johns of Brooklyn, Eastern Kentucky and Marshall college.
Century-old St. Francis college
as did the University of Montana.
E. S. Liston, tournament secretary, announced Wednesday night that no team will be seeded. He said 31 or 32 states would be represented in the tournament which will be played March 8-13.
