VETERAN PLAYER DISPUTES THORPE’S TITLE OF Rena faye’ -OLD MAN?” OF peagiar-niis ; Bridgeport, Conn., Feb. claimant for the title of “ man of football” has appeared in Ed- die Reilly of this city. Reilly disputes the oft-repeated * sertion that Jim Thorpe, the Car Indian, is the veteran player of the Ame gridiron. Reilly has been digging up New Enelgpe nd eastern pro turfs for 20 yWars. and still holds thé dloom of youth despite his 38 years, featur- ing a score of strenuous compaigns. Season efter season Reilly has led teams made up of former. college stars seeking glory and lyere in professional ranks. e Never once have these crack or- ganizations outshone the individual brilliancy of the veteran. Reilly's shrewd generalship and_never-end- ing speed, has made him known throughout New England and much. EDDIE REILLY 7 of the east-as the “grand old man” of the game. Many offers have been made Reilly to take up college coaching, but he prefers to stick to the professional ranks. In recognition of his great ath- letie ability, he has recently beer made athletic director of the city of Bridgeport. Reilly sttributes his remarkabie physical conditon to his love for sport. He shines not only in foot- ball but ¢n baseball and basketbali as well. Resolves Itself A major league swap can be clas ed.as- a blindfolded lottery without libeling anybody. It is legal in basebal business, but a to the winner and the tloser— well, it is a snatch-grab exchange, with the ultimate result, ‘success ot failure, not known until months later. \ Branch: Rickey, manager of the Se Louis Cardinals, today is laughing and sniffing at Charles E. Ebbets and Wilber Robinson of the Brook- lyn Superbas. And why not? Didn't Rickey exchange Ferdinand Schupp and Harold Janvrin for Ed Pfeffer during’ the summer of 1921? Of course he did! . ‘And didn’t Pfeffer have one of the most prosperous seasons of his long career with the Cardinals during 1922? And at the same time, move your Trading Of Major League Ball ‘Players Into Gamble League players and try to locate Schupp and Janvrin. It can’t be done. Sehupp now is located with Kansas City in the American Association, while Janvrin recently was released to the Seattle club of the Pacific Coast League. Pfeffer was the winning pitcher on the Cardinals’ staff in 1922, winning 19 and losing 12 games, while with an earned run average of 3.58 he surpassed such artists as Alexander, Meadows, McQuillan and Grimes. Of course, there are other trades that are not on the right side of Branch Rickey’s ledgex, There was one of several, years ago with the Phillies, when the Cardinals parted with Lee Meadows, Gene, Paulette and a wad of coin for Elmer Jacobs, Frank Woodward and Douglas Baird. Rickey ‘drew dead timber from the Phillies, while Meadows’ today is finger around the list of National rated in the $50,000 class. Selling and trading ball pl has grown to be quite a busine: leagues, where many purchases and exchanges annually take place be- tween the various teams. Indeed, the sale and barter list is a long one, and for the most part. is used quite frequently by all clubs in an effort to bolster their outfits. However, in the personnel of “the two big circuits last season thero-was one club whose playing ‘roster showed but two players who were obtained by such deals. The club in question was the Detroit Tigets, which outside of George Cutshaw, purchased from Pittsburg, and Roy Moore, got from the Athletics late in the campaign, didn’t haye aman but what-came to the outfit direct from the minors. out of bounds is it illggal for the player so doing to step én the boun- dary line?

Once there was a great carpenter who made for people a most mar- velous gift which would fit itself to the recipients and if the person wished to walk it became shoes for his feet, or a staff for his herd. If he'was called on to engage in battle it became a wonderful sword or 9 suit of inpenetrable’ grmor. When he returned from battle it became a chair or a couch and the returned soldier might rest. This carpenter has many follow- ers who also endeavored’ to méimu- facture this wonderful gift. Some made only chairs and the chairs would be only of one size and, many of the people could not rest therein. Some made swords but the swords would not stand the ‘test of battic, and were discarded except for par- ades, Some made shoes whic cramped the feet of those who wore them, but most of them made chairs and couches which did fit sor of the people and they chose to rest therein.
