Dr. Petrolle. That is what the! fans will call him. More than any other man, Billy Petrolle can put boxing back on its fect, for he i not only one of the greatest light- weights but also one of the greatest crowd pleasers in the big show to- day. The Petrolle-Jones affray will mark the resumption of an old feud Three years ago, Ru Jones, then fighting for Johnny Salvatore of St. Paul, took a decision from the Ex- press. Petrolle intends to punch this splotch off his escutcheon while Jones is confident again beat Mandell’s conqueror. While Petrolle was battling in New York and Los Angeles in 1925, gaining a national reputation, Jones headed for the great Southwest where he forgot the ring for over a year when he was bitten by the “oil bug.” He had deserted a promising fistic path through Fistiana for the lure of casy money. Petrolle Worthy of Toga Today Petrolle is regarded as the logical successor of the Rockford Shiek, a fighter wort of the toga of Benny Leonard w! nes, disil- lusioned, has been reclimb- ing the ring ladder in the arenas of Denver, Kansas City, St. Louis, Texas, Oklahoma, and other south- western fight centers. i That Jones is back is evidenced by| his draw with Roscoe Hall in Des Moines on Jan. 24.

Promoter Is Mystery And to further set the cauliflower 1 kingdom of western North Dakota buzzing is the “Mysterious Promo- ter” who has stirred the imagina- tions of all true ring lo’ with his “Revival” in a so-called “impos- sible fight spot.” Yy Conjectures as to the unknown j promoter are many. Some claim that Tex Rickard has an agent out here sponsoring shows in search for heavyweight material. Others claim) Mike Collins, Minneapolis promoter, or Jack Hurley, Fargo promoter ., The difficulty in uncovering the identity of the “Mysterious Promo- ter?-is that he has never appeared in person but has donc all of his business through an agent.

An almost new staff of pitching | talent is the first ptoblem the Brew- ers have to face. Ossie Orwoll and Claud Jonnard were acquired by the Athletics. Paul Johnson, went to the Yankees. Dennis” Gearin was sold to Atlanta and these comprised the cream of the Brewers’ mound staff. Orwoll was the league’s leading twirler for 1927, and in be- tween turns on the hill, he per- formed very creditably in the out- field and at bat. Orwoll Was Star Coming from the sandlots of North Dakota, Orwoll was a big factor in carrying the Brewers into second place in the percentage column last season. In place of these mound stars will be Ernest Wingard of the St. Louis Cardinals. Ed Stelecki of the Lincoln club of the Western League, and some of the surplus stock of both the Ath- letics and the Browns. z Eddleman, Sanders and Willis, the remainder of the 1927 pitching corps, will be back again and the indications are that Eddleman_ will have to be the mainstay of the staff. Denison and Humbler, both of whom were given tryouts last year, will be given another oppor- tunity to display their wares in the spring training camp at Hot Springs in March.

That statement wouldn’t border on the unusual were it not for the fact that the slugging oufielder slrcady j has been under 13 different pilots since he came to the majors back in 1912. Cy without a doubt has worked for more big league bosses than any other player in the pastime. He started with the ‘alo Frank Chance of the old Cubs sixteen years ago after matriculating at Notre Dame University. In 1913 he toiled for Johnny Evers on tie same club and the following year saw service with Hank O’Day, wio has tossed up his umpire’s job in the old league to manage the Cubs. In 1915 Williams played with Roger Bresnahan, one-time battery- mate of the famous Christy Ma- thewson and “Iron Man” Joe Mc- Ginnity.
