The Big Ten plans to have Major John L. Griffith select officials for next season from a base of 40 plus additions. The move centralizes discipline and enforces a stringent ethics code, with schools handling ineligibility cases under an honor system and reporting to the commissioner as needed. Buck McCormick’s 1939 hitting pace is noted, contrasting with the flawed forecast of his earlier adviser Bill Terry.
