. e BRINGING UP FAT PORAW- IT'S RAININ' AN' MAGGIE DIDN'T. LEAVE ME A DIME T GO DOWN TO THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, WEDNESDAY, DEC. 26, 1928. BASEBALL DEALING UNDER DIFFICULTIES Dobbs, manager of ham club of the Southern jon and former major league cutfielder, worked as hard as any man attending the conven- tion of the 1al Assoc Toronto. John did the bulk of his business the first day he the Ontario city, but ons ant transaction had to wait was necessary for the boss of the Parons to get two fellow baseball men from widely separated of the country together to comple a deal in wiich he was muc interested. The two men were members of different schools of habit. One never left his bed until it was dark and the with him other never remained out of bed| long after dark. The task of lin- ing them up occupied all of the time of ed to extolling the tanooga as the next convention city of the Nation Dobbs comes from C tinally Manages Dobbs likes Dball play-| ers to whom the game ‘s real and earnest. He had a good ball player as a farm hand from a ma- jor league club, but the athlete did not take the game so serious ly as Dobbs would like, At the end of the season the ma- jor league owner asked the minor league manager if he would like to have the player for another season. “I dom’t think so0,” Dobbs r plied. “He's a good man, isn't he?” “Yes, but he's cne of the type that whistles amd sings after los- ing a close game.” The major league roster then inspected for a possible sub- stitute for the whistler and singer. | “How about this fellow?” Dobbs asked, peinting to a mame on the| list. “He's all right,” said the major league prasident. “But he whistles and sings, t00.” BIG HEARTED HUGGINS MAKES OFFER Two minor league managers at Toronto spent hours in consulta- tion over a possible trade. Mana- ger Miller Huggins of the world champion Yankees wanted a word with each and remained long on the outskirts of “the conference looking for a chance to get the floor. The opportunity was long delayed, and finally Hug decided it was hopeless. He then took matters in hand. Approaching the two man huddle, he made a generous offer: “If you two birds will quit talk- ing about that trade and let me have a word with you, I'll give you each a player.” not accepted but the champion manager got the floor. LARRY MAY FIT IN WITH YANKEES Marty Krug, manager of the Los Angeles club of the Pacific Coast league, thinks Lyn Lary, promoted from Oakland to the New York| Yaankees, will jump right into a more or less permanent job with, the world champions. Krug, a well posted baseball man, has no hesi-| tancy in pronouncing the short- stop ready for the big top. Marty suggests, however, that Manager Huggins will have to rearrang his infield to make a plac: for Lyn, as he is essentially a short. stop and probably can not play, second or third well enough to meet major league standards. ——————— ATTENTION The Moose Children Christmas, Tree and Program will be given _on Thursday, the 27th, at 7:30 .
