Attending all meetings will be Tug Wilson, who will retire July 1 as Big Ten commissioner, and Bill Reed, the present assistant commissioner who will succeed him at that time.

The Yankees cooled off the Detroit Tigers at least temporarily Sunday with their doubleheader sweep at Yankee Stadium, but the Tigers' early head of steam in the American league pennant race has still been the top story of the first month of major league baseball. The long, long season is still in its infancy and the Tigers still have 130 games to go, yet early indications are that a lot of so-called experts may have guessed wrong again on the Tigers. During the last 15 years or so, probably no team in session here. Iowa is playing host to the outdoor track meet for the Minnesota, the school believed to be most apt to change Its vote and thus break a current 5-5 deadlock, has delayed a fac first time in 35 years and this is the first time one of the Big Ten business meetings has been held here since then.

And each fall the Tigers have been in the second division more often than not. The trouble is, it seems, that the Tigers have often had a lot of stars, but have seldom had a team. The Tigers haven't won a pennant now sine 1945, and that was during the tailend of World War II when all major league ball clubs were rather sickly outfits.

In fact, the World Series that year, between the Tigers and Cubs, Is still remembered as the one in which one writer said he didn't think either team would have the strength to win.
