But chiefly, while people asked him questions about himself, Con- nie wanted to talk about baseball, its past, its present and its future. “Baseball isn’t down,” he said, “far from it. We've had these slumps before, and now I feel the worst is over. The fans will come back to the parks next year and see new faces, young faces and better races.

Catch- er Ray Hayworth of Detroit also pro- vided a season's fielding high spot by handling 347 putouts and 53 assists in 92 games before making his first er- {ror of the season during the second |game of Aug. 29. Hayworth made three errors in the next 13 games to finish with a season's average of .991. Sam West of Washington was the busiest outfielder of the year with 459 putouts and 15 assists.

The only remaining question was whether Er- win Rudolph of Cleveland, a former title holder who wasn't eliminated from the race for this year’s crown until Wednesday night, would take second place all alone or would enter a three-way tie with Andrew Ponzi of Philadelphia and Jimmy Caras of Wilmington, Del. The concluding match of the tour- nament Thursday night sends Ru- dolph against. Greenleaf in what might have been a battle for the championship but for the skill of Ponzi. The chubby Philadelphian outlasted Rudolph on a duel of safeties and scratches Wednesday night and final- ly defeated him 125 to 78 in 28 inn- ings to clinch the title for Greenleaf. The defending champion won his eighth straight triumph in the after- noon match, turning back Pasquale Natalie of Chicago 125 to 57 in 18 inn. ings and finished up his quest for his llth title with the tournament record run of 106. Greenleaf made one scratch after another in the early innings of his match with Natalie, then, with his score minus 23, he flashed his great run of 106 to take the lead and never lose it again. Hammond Resigns From Sport Jobs Development Follows Disagree- ment With Carey, Head of Madison Garden New York, Dec. 22—(#)—Col. John 8. Hammond, the silver-haired for- ;mer army officer who helped fulfill Tex Rickard’s great ambition to have “the best people’ attend sports events, has taken his place on the sidelines of sport as an interested stockholder in the Madison Square Garden corporation and a keen fol- lower of hockey. One of the last survivors of the Rickard regime, Hammond resigned his positions as president of the New York Rangers Hockey club and vice because of “disagreement with the actions and policies of the presi- dent.” His place was taken by Les- ter Patrick, manager of the Rangers since 1926 and one of the outstand- ing figures in hockey since his days as @ great player and later as a lead- er.of the Pacific Coast Hockey league when it was rated as the equal of the National league. What the “action and_ policies” were was not explained as Hammond denied reports that he and William F. Carey, president of the organiza- tion, had disagreed over a reduction in the prices of hockey tickets. But at the same time a 33 1-3 per cent cut in prices was announced, put- ting the “tops” at $2.

Before ‘starting scrimmage Coach Sutherland plans to show his squad Democratic Chairman Is Slated For Job in Roosevelt's New Cabinet New York, Dec. 22—(7)—James A. Parley—“Big Jim” to the boxing. business, chairman of the national Democratic committee and “king maker” to the rest of the nation— has decided definitely to retire from the New York state athletic commis-| sion. Thus does the six-foot, 2%3-inch,' 220-pound perpetual motion machine, who can look down from the heights on many of the heavyweights he has bent to the will of the commission in seven years as its chairman, take leave of a job that always has fasci- nated him, a job without pay, but a job he hates to give up. “AS much as I regret it, I must leave boxing sooner or later,” hesaid Thursday as he settled back for a moment from the ceaseless activity of the national Democratic head- quarters. “I will be too busy to handle it, but I will hate to make this deci- sion. It’s a grand game, boxing, a sport for the ambitious, a game that gives everyone an equal chance. It develops the Tunneys and the Demp- seys, the Leonards and the Dundees, and there is no limit to the ambi- tions that courage cannot realize. Has Met Big Men “It has given me the opportunity to meet big men who held in com- mon a deep fecling for clean, rugged sport. I can't thank boxing too much.” The public at large, and the po- litical minds of the country in par- ticular, already have decided for him that he is to be the next postmaster general in the cabinet of the man whose campaign he directed success- fully, President-Elect Franklin D. Roosevelt, But as to that, James A. Farley has nothing to say. Sitting there by a desk piled high with other problems of politics, it’s a strange leap back to other torrid days in the career of “Jim” Farley, to 1926 and another flat, glass-top- ped desk where his mettle first was tested as chairman of the state ath- letic commission.

Kansas Jockey In Hall of Fame New Orleans, Dec. 22—(P)—A 17- year-old youngster from by Johnny Gilbert, has assured himself @ place in the jockeys’ hall of fame by riding his 201st winner of the year. By scoring a triple Wednesday at Jefferson Park to pass the 200 mark, Johnny became the 13th American jockey since 1896 and the third since 1910 to reach that height. He also increased his margin in his duel with Hank Mills for the year’s jockey hon- ors. Although Mills had two winners Wednesday, he was left seven behind Gilbert. —_—_—_——_——__ NOTICE OF MORTGAGE FORECLO- SURE SALE BY ADVERTISEMENT NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, That default has occurred in the terms and conditions of that certain real estate mortgage made, executed and deliv- ered by Lena Boelter and George Boelter, her husband, whose postoffice address is Bigmarck, Burleigh County, North Dakota, mortgagors, to Fidelity Building and Loan Association, a corp- oration, whose postoffice address is Valley City, Barnes County, North Da- kota, as 4mortgagee, dated May 2ist, 1928, filed for record in the office of the Register of Deeds of Burleigh County, North Dakota, on May 31st, 1928, at 11:30 o'clock A.

Feared ‘Mixed’ Matches’ “Old Texas” feared “mixed” matches, perhaps from his memories of turbulent scenes following the Jack Johnson-Jim Jeffries duel in Reno in 1910. He was trying to shelve Wills in favor of Gene Tun- ney, scarcely considered then a fit opponent for the man mauler. Farley led the drive then to give the Negro the opportunity he had won by whipping Luis Firpo. He never weakened on that stand, though tremendous was brought to bear. And in the end he forced Rickard to take to Philadel- phia the bout that made Tunney a champion. Yet in the presidential campaign of last fall, Tunney fought at Far- ley’s side as an active speaker for the Democratic party. Dempsey dropped in at headquarters to offer his services at any time. More recently at the head of the flat-topped table Farley forced Max Schmeling to give Jack Sharkey an- other chance at the heavyweight title the German won on a foul in a dis- appointing show in 1930, insisting to the point of forcing Madison Square Garden to take a championship match with Young Strfoling toCleve- land before Schmeling gave in.
