Tilden, national tennis champion, who, resigned from the Davis cup and Olympic teams following the publication of a report by the Ama- teur Rules committee of the Tennis Association, which, he alleges, re- ferred to him as ‘‘an evil influence" because of his writing, has been in- vited to meet with the Davis Cup committee Friday to “talk things over.”” In the letter of invitation Julian 8. Myrick, chairman of the Davis Cup Committee, expressed surprise at the possibility,that an American tennis champion Would refuse to rep- resent his country in international competition when called upon. “You have been invited to play for your country as an American cham- pion and it never crossed the minds of the committee that you would re- fuse or even hesitate,” the letter read. “You are eligible to represent this country in the contests mention. ed. “Inasmuch as you were present at one of the recent meetings of the Davis Cup Committee, it is difficult to conceive your having any doubt whatsoever with regard to your eligi- bility or to the committee's view in this regar oe ES RE Another effort to merge all the shoe workers’ unions in the United States into one big organization will be made at a convention which has been called to meet in’ Boston the first of May.

Recently in this column it» was suggested that the success of the haphazard Venture into new fields would result in an organied effort to make a big thing out of spring base- ball and might eventually reach a stage where the regular champion- ship schedule would be opened in the south and played on an itinerant schedule until the weather was set- ued sufficiently to open the parks of the regular major league sched- ules. John A. Heydier, president of the National League, commenting on the subject a few days ago, said it was possible that the regular season might be extended at some time in the futuré to provide for regular games in the south, but that {t was improbable He suggested, however, that the major league club owners were cer tain to organize a better schedule o! southern games next spring and to make more serious efforts to give the soythern fans a real major league baseball, It is possible, he said, that the major league club own- ers may get together next winter and draw up a real schedule for the spring games. It is Mr. Heydler’s idea that a real schedule can be arranged, because so many permanent training camps are being established by the mag- nates in Florida and for the reason that these camps are being pitched in groups where traveling expenses can be reduced to a minimum, The idea that some of the smaller southern cltles might become fed up on exhibition baseball was not borne out this year, when, in several in stances, the same cities were visited by three and four sets" of touring teams. The games all drew generous support. “ee Garry Herrmann, president of the Cincinnati Reds, protested this year against National League teams play- ing National League teams in ex- sonal reply enclose a stamped, (Copyright, 1924, Question—There is _ runner on third, pitcher throws ball to catcher in attempt to catch runner stealing home.

To Garry’s credit, he backed up his opinion by refusing to schedule the Reds against any Na- tional League clubs. John McGraw said, toward the end of the Giants’ exhibition tour, that he had protested against the schedul.« ing of intra-league games, but that he had been persuaded by the busi- ness office to withdraw his objec- tion. He intimated that he would not consent if the same question came up again. In some remote instances the reg: ular business of a club may be hurt by the spring exhibition games. It is very well for the managers to put on the front that they are practice games and mean nothing, but those intimate with major league baseball, know that the clubs play just as hard as they do in the championship season that, in some cases, the spirit is even more intense, The Broolyn Robins were given a terrible pasting by the New York Yankees during their exhibition series, and Brooklyn fans began squawking about the poor class of their team. They did not accept the alibi that they were exhibition games and meant nothing. ‘When the series started between the two clubs, the Robin manage- ment made a gesture that the games were just being played to give young Players a chance, but when the team Was beaten a couple of times, the star pitchers were thrown in just as they would have been during the championship season. The Yanks used their championship lineup, be- cause they didn't have any young- sters to work out. The series between the two clubs is not held up as the horrible ex- ample, or with the desire to criticize the Tinest manager in the game. It was held up because the facts were better known and use ft might be taken as a general example and applied to several other cl The possibility of injuries to play- ers might be held as an argument against the exploitation of spring baseball, but the accident factor can- not be controlled whether the clubs are playing games in their camp with the regulars opposing the rook- ies or on the road with the regulars playing major league opposition. pester Tagcesw alt Sa Sport Gossip The American Baseball League rates {ts thirtieth anniversary this year.

First in News Of All Events MITCHELL GETS HGHT SURPRISE Coast Battler , Claims Junior Welter Title On Late Victory. : By FAIR PLAY. Copyright, 1924, The Casper Tribune NEW. YORK, April 23.—Pinkey Mitchell is the subject of a good story that came from the Pacific coast today, The elongated Mil. waukeean took a trip to the far west and finally landed in Frisco, where he announced himself as the juntor welterweight champion of the world. As a matter of fact Pinckey has been called that—or at least has so himself without public opinion, Any- way no one kicked about his claims in the vicinity of the golden gate. Least of all was Jimmy Dufty (Hyman Gold) dissatisfied. For he was scheduled to meet Pinkey in a four-round bout over in Oakland and evidently Mitchell though Duffy so much of a setup that he didn't bother to insist upon a provision that no decision be rendered. California four-round bouts are de. cision affairs and under the law only amateurs may fight. But, as has already been pointed out tn this column, professionals do fight and seem to get away with it. Duffy had all the better of three of the four rounds of the bout and Mitchell got no better than an even break in the other. So the referee and the two judges gave the verdict to Duffy. Now Duffy !s claiming to be the earth's junior welterweight champion and Pinkey'’s friends, while admitting he was outpointed, say that since professional bouts are prohibited in California it was as im: possible for him to engage in a bout in wihch his title was at stake. This is a matter for some fistic Solomon to decide. The writers own view is that the law says there shall be no pro bouts tn Calffornia, so it must be assumed that no fessional bout was held. Pinkey may have some doubt as to this view in view of the pounding he re- ceived. But the matter !s technical and apparently must be settled tn a technical manner, Sport Calendar Better Hide Mr. Demp aoe This fierce looking gent is a bull- fighter from Spain, His name is Andrew Balsa and he aspires to fame as a fistic gladi- ator. “I whip the bull, why not the man?" he asks.
