MONDAY, MARCH 9, 1925 World Results By Leased Wire AVALON, TRAINING SPOT FOR CUBS, REVELS IN BEAUTY OF MOUNTAINS AND TURF DIAMOND By JOHN B, FOSTER. (Copyright, 1925, Casper Tribune.) AVALON, SANTA CATALINA ISLAND. Calif, Mareh 9,—Florida in her sunniest moods and California at her hest would be hard put to {t to provide a more ideal place for training than the playground in which the Chicago Cubs are makine ready for. he ent hneakn ae sh yes LO UIUY Weer yori «08 Angeles at Avalon is weated a diamond which has no peer in the United States. It is a veritable carpet of emerald velvet. The turf, mowed each day to re- strain its luxuriant growth, ts like kid glove to the hand. It recovers in one night from the effects of cruel spikes, The Cubs romp upon it Uke kids who are seeing grass for the first time. | Mountains are the background of the Cubs' playground. They sur- round it completely, save for one pass which gives on the bounding Pacific. Up the side of one of these mountains, where he can sit on his veranda and look down upon the baseball team at play, stands the house of William Wrigley—monarch of all he surveys, baseball team and isjand included. The background of the Cubs’ park in Chicago once was a coal yard. Imagine that against the hug ver dure clad mountainsides that climb into the air and form a running| course for wild goats galore—per- haps descendants of the goats that Robipson Crusoe found {n southern seas. Rabbit Maranville, irrepressible, vivacious, abounding with energy, says it makes him fee! almost like a goat himself when he looks qt those mountaing. “But I'm nobody's gol darned goat this year,” he hastens to add. “I have: traine the Rabbit continued, “on everything from cane brake to one of those brush filled corn flelds to which Walter Hapgood used to take us, but this thing {s so big in the background and so fine in the foreground that I wake up scared at night and pinch myself to find out whether I'm not the hero of one of those stories where you go to sea and get cast away on an inland chuck full of wild ducks and griddle cakes and maps syrup.” Bill Killefer, manager, has changed his first intention about the Chicago infield That seems to be the out- standing fact about the Chicago Cubs 80 far. | Instead of playing Maranville at| second base where he played so well last season for Pittsburgh, he is re- turning Maranville to shortstop, “Rabbit wanted to go to his old job again,” said Killefer, in a matter of fact manner, ‘so I am training him at short. Adams will play second, Grimm first and Friberg third.” So there {s another Infield will give-eause for conjecture, that This Croup Relieved Without Dosing harmful stomach.

The next time a child seems Too much to a child's dosing is delicate croupy in the evening apply Vicks over throat and chest and cover with a warm flannel ‘loth. Leave the bedelothing loose about the néck so that the aris- ing vapors may be freely inhaled. This usually prevents a night attack, If croup comes on without warning an application of Vicks usually brings relief in 15 min- utes. Vicks can be applied freely and often, even on the youngest child with perfect safety. yvicks VAPORUB Over [7 Micron Jars Use Yearty new adjustment of players, by its great speed and by the manner in which the players are interlinked, may bring about a tremendous dif. ference in the achievement of the Cubs before the season is ended. Mafanville {a in better shape to play baseball than he has been for three years Ho fits in admirably > ‘th Adams and he has given con husnce to Friberg at third. Grimm {5 no legs effervescent than he was with Pittsburgh. The change will sive Chicago an infield of alternated veterans and youngsters. The old: sters tend to steady the youngsters. The plan is working excellently right now. If it continues this {nfleld of the Cubs will be much better than it was last year and it will rate upon the heels of the other tnfields in the National league. GALFIND LOOKS BAN FOR RISE IN FING. RANKS Promising Eastern Wel- ter Makes Trip to Coast To Get Matches. By FAIR PLAY, 192) Casper Tribune.) March %\-—Every: time you look around to find some old friend in the boxing ranks, you find a report that the person wanted can be found in California. Save for the title holders who have been booked to meet native sons, about the best fighter who has made the transcontinental trek is Harry Cal- fund, Harry will best be’ remembered for a quick knockout of Sergeant Sammy Baker, who was looked upon as having the best chance among the welters of the younger set of giving Mickey Walker a run for his title, Baker had a long string of knock- outs to his credit until he met Cal. fund and was forced to listen to the singing of the birdie Harry's rise in the ring reads lke a page out of Frank Merriwell. De- serting the amateur ranks, he found a tough time getting bouts at the loca) New York clubs. Then one evening the National Sports Alliance was staging a series of all star boute and, as with all affairs of this sort, very few of the advertised stars appeared to do battle. Calfund was on hand when an opponent was sought for Willie Jackson, Harry promptly offered himself. Tt is true that Jackson did not try to put the youngster away, but at that the kid made a wonderful showing andthe crowd shouted itself hoarse in appreciation of his work. That was all that he received for the work. However, this bout put him in demand and he started out to make a record that is better than that of most of the eastern welters. He ought to make a big hit on the coast. The writer hears that Kid Kaplan will be asked to meet Danny Kramer in a return bout in Philadelphia this summer. If the champion accepts the offer, this Is one fight that will be worth seeing. That knockout of Kramer by Kaplan, while clean and convincing, was hardly warranted on the basis of the relative ability of the two lads and if a line is drawn through the opponents both have met and showing both have made, there Is plenty of warrant for hooking the two feathers up in an- other battle, os Le Urban Shocker, former star pitch- er of the St. Louis Browns and now on the hurling staff of the New York Yankees, began his professional baseball career as a cateher. 32 aoe Rc Although the Olymplo games are not carded for Los Angeles until 1982 the southern California metrop- olis ts already working out the plans for the big event.
