Only one of the holes in the in- field caused last fall by draft, sale and recall, has been remedied, and Muehlbach is currying ‘the lists of available players for a second and third baseman. Securing of these, together with a capable southpaw pitcher, would re- lieve the owner’s mind, and strength- en his belief that the Blues would finish as strong or perhaps stronger than last year. The team landed in a second }lace tie with Milwaukee last September. Howard Freigau, third baseman, was drawn by Brooklyn in the draft dium. and Joe Hausez, first baseman, of- Bismarck ten called the best first sacker in the FG F |circuit, was recalled by the Athletics.

PETER MANNING IS PREPARING AGAIN FOR TRACK RETURN Fastest Trotter World Has Known, 12 Years Old, Will Assault Old Marks Macon, Ga., Feb. 11.—Those dev- otees of the trotter who tarry at the mile track here and watch train- ers putting their pupils through their winter exercises will recognize an old campaigner flashily striding up the stretch. He is no other than Peter Manning, the fastest trotter the world has known. Old Peter, now 12 years of age, is being prepared for another assault on world, state and track records. He is in charge of Tommy Berry, train- er for the Hanover Shoe. Farms of Hanover, Pa., which own him. ‘i Despite his age, Peter Manning is coming along nicely in his work and conseqtently there is every indica- tion he will be as good as ever. Three World’s Records The career of Peter Manning con- stitutes one of the brightest chap- ters in light harness history. He is the holder of nine world trotting rec- ords, more than any other perform- er, not to mention innumerable state and track marks he has set. If the son of Azoff and Glendora G. had been awarded a trophy or medal for every record he established, there would be a sufficient quantity to fill a museum. a Kentuckians and the visiting le- gion of horsemen never will forget that memorable day in October, 1921, at Lexington when Peter Manning broke the world record of 1:58, held by the Black demon, Uhlan, by.trot- ting in 1:57 3-4. Tommy Murphy held the re Then the following year at the same course, he reduced it with a mile in 1:56 3-4, Murphy again doing the driving. Here are the world marks Peter is credited with: Mile Track Mile—1156 3-4. Three-quarters— 1:28 1-4. Two miles—4:10 1-4. Fast- est gelding—1:56 1-4. Fastest four- year-old gelding—2:02 1-2 (tied with Guy Ozark). Fastest five-year-old gelding—1:57 3-4. Half-Mile Track Mile—2:02 1-4. ‘Three-quarters— 1:33 1-4. Two miles—4:23, Berry will drive Peter Manning in the majority of his exhibitions this season. Peter will be sent particu- larly after the marks on half-niile tracks. the Hanover Shoe Farms also will drive the gelding in several exhibi- tions. The latter graciously has con- sented to let the son of Azoff trot exhibitions at all the tracks in the new William Penn Racing Circuit, comprised of Allentown, Pottsville, Reading, Hanover and Hatfield, Pa., and Harrington, Del., without cost to the associations there. Peter Manning was bred in Lake County, Ilinois, by W. M. Wright of Chicago, owner of the Calumet Stock Farm at Lexington, Ky., one of the largest trotting nurseries in the world.

Sheppard of] The from Bismarck High ght Champ WINS 45-ROUND BATTLE WITH BENNY BASS Brooklyn Youth Nearly Knocks Out Philadelphia Fighter in Third Round BASS IS SAVED BY BELL Benny Goes Through Most of Bout With Dislocated Shoul- der—Now in Hospital New York, Feb, 11—(@)—Tony Canzoneri assumed undisputed rec- ogniticn as featherweight champion of the world today but only after a fierce 15-round struggle with Benny Bass of Philadelphia, who boxed most of the distance with a dislocated right shoulder. fore a crowd of about 14,000 in Madison Square Garden last night, Canzoneri opened up with a rapid fire fusilade of rights and lefts to the head, which nearly knocked out Bass in the third round. The Philadelphia boxer went down for a count of eight and was on his knee when the bell ended the round. Taken to Hospital The injury to Bass was not dis- closed until after the hout when a large swelling appeared about the shoulder. Dr. W. G. Fralick said the shoulder was dislocated and the right collarbone possibly fractured. Bass was taken ta a hospital. The Philadelphian said he sustained the injury in the third round when he missed Canzoneri with a hard right and that there- after he was compelled to rely on his left hand for his attack. Canzoneri piled up a big lead on ints up to the 10th round, when ss, handicaped by his injury, be- gan to land effectively with lefts to the chin, one of which sent the Brooklyn youth staggering to the ropes for support. Bass made a t rally in the next five rounds. oth boxers abandoned defensive tactics and ring finesse, pummeling one another in savage fashion. Fans Approve Verdict The judges’ verdict met with popular approval from the throng. gate receipts were $62.656. Canzoneri weighed 125 1-2 pounds, his rival 126. By gaining the decision, Can- zoneri brought to an end a long controversy in the featherweight division, Canzoneri was the stand- ard bearer of the class acknowledged by the New York state athletic commission while Bass was the reigning champion of the National * Boxing association, which has a membership in 26 ~ states, not in- cluding New York. ,The universally acclaimed cham- pion, Canzoneri, was born in New Orlears on November 6, 1905, of Italian-American parentage. His 1:3e to the top of the featherweight ranks was a three-year career as a pessoa boxer which is said to pod netted him more than $200,- Iowan Beats German in 1,00-meter Race Chicago, Feb, 11.—(#)—Germany’s blonde streak of the cinder hg Dr. Otto Peltzer, who says his pri mal motive for invading Ameri tracks is to acquire knowledge, learned one lesson from an unas- suming athlete from the tall corn state of Iowa, Ray Conger. Before a wild cheering throng of 5,000 spectators last night in the Tanbark arena of the Chicago Rid- ing club, Conger beat the German ace to the tape in the 1,000-meter race by @ good 10 yards. It was Peltzer’s second race in America and his first defeat. The time, 2:37, was comparative- ly slow. The world’s indoor record for the event, held by Lloyd Hahn of Boston Athletic club, is 2:26 2-5. “I have nothing to say about thi defeat,” Peltzer replied fs Gueeae and consolations, “All I can say is that I hope Mr. Conger and I can meet once again.
