Wolverines Pin Track Title Hopes on Ward Chicago, May 16—(4)—Glawillis Ward will just about have to duplicate the feat of a Michigan star 15 years ago, Carl Johnson, if the Wolverines win a third straight western confer- ence track championship Saturday. In the 1919 meet Johnson won the 100 yard dash, the 120 yard high hurdles, the high jump and the broad jump for 20 points.

Forty-year-old Burleigh Grimes, hard-bitten right hander, and 39- year-old Joe Judge, in his heyday one of baseball’s finest fielding first base- men, were cut adrift by the St. Louis Cardinals and Boston Red Sox, re- spectively. In his 19 years in the big leagues, Grimes served with every National League club except Cincinnati and Philadelphia and he may complete the swing before he's ready to call it a career. Judge can charge his uncon- ditional release to the trade whereby the Red Sox parted with about $20,- 000 cash and Fred Muller, rookie in- fielder, to the New York Yankees for Jim Weaver, six foot six inch right hander, was turned back to Newark by the St. Louis Browns Tuesday and ® few hours later was sold to the Chi- cago Cubs. Other releases made necessary by the 23-player limit rule saw the Brooklyn Dodgers sell Southpaw Phil Page to Kansas City, and dispose of Outfielder Glen Chapman to Albany; the Boston Braves send Pitchers Bill Barrett and Lew Krausse to Albany and Harrisburg, Pa., respectively; the Detroit Tigers farm out Steve Larkin, promising pitcher to Toledo, and Cleveland release Catcher Roy Spen- Clan Levindly in Manhunt for King Promoters Join Search for Miss- ing Fighter Who Checked Lasky Bout Chicago, May 16—(?)—A manhunt —not for John Dillinger but for King Levinsky—had the Maxwell street sector in the throes of excitement ‘Wednesday. Three physicians, their stethoscopes primed for action, and members of the powerful clan Levinsky, were on the lookout. A number of others, in- cluding Promoters Lou Daro and Tom Gallery of Los Angeles, for whom the King was to have fought Art Lasky of Minneapolis, Tuesday night, waited hopefully. Last reports from the celebrated Kingfish came from Tucumcari, N. M. He passed through there in a big black sedan, Chicago-bound. Non-traveling members of the clan Levinsky said they had heard nothing from the and Lena, his sister-manager, oe sdmitted they were very wor- ried.” They were worried because the all- too-few reports said the King—their King—was sick.

He talked so persuasively that the commission wasted no time in lifting the indefinite suspension it had plas- tered on Baer and his mnger, Ancil Hoffman, for their failure to appear ‘on time. Then Max almost spoiled it all again.
