Only two new skippers are noticed | collecting their cohorts for the south- land trip this season. Pat Moran | has taken the place of sorrel-topped Charley Dooin at weilding the baton over the Phunny Phills, and Rajah Bresnahan, the portly ex-director of the Cards, is going to take a whirl at the Cubs. Rajah is no stranger to the Na- tional league strategists, if there be such things. His methods were pretty well noised amound when he § was serving a St. Louis sentence and & also while he was with the Cubs last i i year. | Moran is somewhat of an unknown quantity. But looking over the nu- cleus he has to start with, it doesn’t appear as though he were going to put very many straws in the paths of George Stallings, Jawn McGraw and the rest of the crew. The Phil's two # mainstays with the stick, Sherwood Magee and Hans Lobert, have been let go in trades to Boston and New York. His pitching staff, from this early yviewpoint doesn’t look calculated to make the other managers green with envy, especially when it is considered what backed it up. Grover Cleve- land Alexander is, of course, the real noise. Rixey and Mayers should prove good men; Demaree is rather an unknown quantity. Bresnahan is more fortunate. He is taking the field with practically the same crowd he worked with last year and one that on paper should be a contender all the way.

' Merchandise Will Be Sold For Cash, and Cash Only ting and fielding strength is back . of it. Some of the old tricks of the ring still are in use despite the frigid : looks of the boxing public and the new generation of fighters. Of course, the days when a boxer could work his man around to the wings so some sec- ond could slam hinr with a board and put him to sleep, are past. But there are several leading boxers who owe 4 great deal of their “cleverness” to the little aids, perfectly harmless, probably, but still aids. Need any oelp?

An event that will always be remembered as Minnesota’s most sensational mercantile movement, greatest sacrifice of high class merchandise. Nothing Like It Before Ever Attempted INVESTIGATION IS THE FORE RUNNER OF KNOWLEDGE s One of the most common of all is the use of grease. A fighter who greases his body can slip in and out of clinches about ten times as easy as he could were his skin not so slip- pery. From the viewpoint of the average fan he appears cleverer and quicker on his feet. In Willie Beecher’s recent ten- round fiasco with Champion Freddie Welsh at the Garlen, the East Side boy was as slippery as an eel. He appeared much faster than he really is and he got away with it in good shape. The referee could have dis- qualified him had he so minded, but so long as Welsh or his seconds didn’t offer objections, Willie stayed greased. Another aged wheeze still in prac- tice is that of plastering their hair down with camphor ice. There are two objects in this: One, that it keeps the hair from dropping down over their eyes, and, two, camphor ice when in close proximity to the eyes has a tendency to make them blink and water a little. It isn’t harmful, but certainly is annoying. In a clinch when their heads are close together the fumes are sure to have. some effect. Many boxers still make use of Stanley Ketchel's old trick. The man-killer used to rub oil into his pores before’'going into the ring. The stuff wasn’t noticeable at first, but when he began to perspire he became the proverbial ‘“chain of greased lightning,” sliding in and out of clinches with amazing speed.
