S. Barnard and Manager Tris Speaker. “Our team has a lot of possibill- ties,” ‘Cris agreed, “Due to injuries Jast season, our club finished sixth, jower than its playing strength justified,” With few exceptions none of the men had his job clinched for 1925, Bpeaker said, Charley Jamieson, out- fielder, Sewell, shortstop, and Glenn Myatt, entcher, are the outstanding exceptions, he said, Speaker hopes to get a winning combination out of 34 players who will report at the spring training camp, This list includes fourteen pitchers, elght infielder and nine outfielders, Finding last year's experiment of neriding all of his battery men to Hot Springs for preliminary work- uots, unsatisfactory, only Pitchers George Uhle, Sherry Smith, Jim Ed- wards, Joe Shaute and Ben Karr, and Catcher Allie Walters will be sent to the Arkansas resort. Uhle, although only 26, is the vet- teran of the staff, having been with the team since he graduated from the Cleveland sand lots six years ago, but the real veteran is Sherry Smith, former Brooklyn southpaw. The catching staff will be the same as last year with Gl@n Myatt, a heavy hitter, doing the bulk of receiving, aided by Luke, Sewell and Walters. Two men, George Bunrs and Bob Knode will try out for first base. Three second baseman, Chick Fewster, Stephenson and Joe Klug- man, will try out. Joe Sewell, at shortstop, and Wal- ter Lutzke at third base, look like fixtures. Outfielders ordered to report are last year’s regulars, Jamieson, Summa and.

Vinnie Richards failed to show up once at one of the elite tournaments ang he was “turned in” to the as sociation. It was learned later that Richards had not entered the tourna- ment and that the couldn't be charg ed with even a breach of etiquette, ‘The tennis, association, however, uses the money derived from tourna- ments in which it shares in the re ceipts for the promotion of tenni It takes a lot of money to maintain the efficient organization it has, to finance foreign trips of American teams and to promote the Davis Cup competition.

It is doubtful if any other world's champion in any line would have at- tempted what Nurmi did when he made ® 2,000 mile journey to and from Chicago and run tn three races within forty-éight hours’ time. Not only that, but he was pushed around as no other athlete has ever been pushed.

He did not arrive WELL, well, MRS. PAU CRKE, in Chicago until an hour before the race. To make room for a bigger crowd the size of the track had been ceduced to twelve laps and the start of the race was delayed until Nurmi had only forty minutes to change clothes, get a bath and rubdown, eat his stpper and drive two miles to the train. The race was not started on time because Jole Ray was ten minutes e in reporting and another thirty minutes was consumed while Ra was showered with flowers and her- alded gs the “world's greatest run- ner,” while Nurmi wag waiting at the starting line It will be said, of course, that the wack wag reduced in size so that every one who wanted to ‘see the star runner might be accomodated.

A.—A favorite practiceds to send a teani down the floor with short passes then suddenly shoot a man to a corner for a long pass, while under cover of this another man gets undér the goal on a quick dash and takes the throw from the man in the corner who got the long pass, or else takes the toss direct, the man in the corner being sent there merély as a decoy.

CHAMPION AND BY KEARNS AT BY FAIR PLAY NEW YORK, Jan. 30—Stories of a break between Jack Dempsey and Jack Kearns are sjfe in San Fran- cisco. The explanation as usually given refers to the crack given by Kearns after Dempsey'’s engagement was formally announced. Kearns {s reported to have said that the wedding “might never take place." This it is stated, has made Dempsey a8 sore as a crab; but It all may be a piece of similar stories of a Kearns-Dempsey break heisid from time to time in the past. There is only one thing Marullo lacks to put him on top of the pug- {istic heap, and that {s good hands. If Marullo’s hands stand up when he meets Berlenbach, the fans can rest assured that they will see enough action to bring them to their toes.
