Svorts Writer) LOS ANGELES, May 2—The jun- ior lightweight boxing crown may be synthetic but it is worth its weight in gold to Tod Morgan, its slight but fistically sturdy wearer. Morgan can look back over three busy years as ruler of the 130- pound division, and they were not financially fruitless ones, either. It has been estimated that the title- holder, since he toppled the crown from Mike Ballerino's swarthy brow here in December, 1925, has reaped | more than $175,000 from the ring. Morgan has held on to his earn- ings more or less closely. Several bad investments took a share, but the remainder he has laid away for the future. He owns property at several places, including Fullerton, his much abouscd position as king | € near here, where he now re- sides with child. No single champion of the presen: his wife and adopted | day can boast of a record parallel- ing the title slate of this frail-look- ing but do-or-die king of the junior lightweights. A glance over Morgan's record since the eventful night at the Olympic auditorium here when he scored a technical knockout over Ballerino in the tenth round re- veals that he has defended the title 15 times. In other words most of his fights have been in defense of his throne. Morgan attributes his success to Frank Churchill, his manager, who brought the late Pancho Villa to this country, and piloted the Fili- An Light- a Studeba ker-and a (ommander 91495 Eicur Coure Tue New Commanper COMMANDER SIX —*1350 Prices at the factory ipino mite to the world’s flyweight | bought | Morgan’s contract within a week () after he had won the title, and | championship.

VBy GEORGE McMANUS FORGIT SECOND GUESSING ~» BASEBALL Smian Seis HEADS AS IMPORTANT Pitchers who think before they throw, the so-called “smart” per- PITCHERS’ AS ARMS formers of the major leagues are not all gray-beards. Waite Hoyt of the Yankees, the former schoolboy wonder, is not yet thirty years of age, but no less a judge than Connie Mack has stamped Hoyt as “smart.” The tall tactician was reviewing a four hit game Hoyt pitched against the Athletics on his first appearance of the 1929 season. “He outsmarted our batsmen,” was Connie’s explanation of the light hit- ting of his men. The particular strategy of the Brooklyn undertaker in this game was to give the A's balls they did not expect. Manager Mack has a number of hard hitters known in the baseball trade as fast ball hitters. To these athletes Hoyt threw fast balls. They were so astonished at seeing the high hard ones sailing by they made little effort to hit until too late. jother in their groove, but that is what he did, the amazement of the batsmen growing as the game went on. Another smart pitcher opposed Hoyt in this game and allowed but five hits, but Jack Quinn is somewhere in the late forties and has been ! pitching baseballs for 25 years, so it is not surprising to hear him called intelligent in a baseball sense. He should be. ANOTHER FAMOUS JOE MOVES OUT ON THE FIELD “Bullet Joe” Bush, famous as a pitcher for the Philadelphia Athlet- ics and other major league baseball clubs, has deserted the pitchers’ mound for the outfield and now is playing right field for the Portland club of the Pacific Coast league. He follows a trail left by a number of other pitchers who became effective outfielders, another Joe being prominent in the number. *“Smoky Joe" Wood, after finishing his career as a star pitcher for the Boston Red Sox, went to Cleveland with Tris Speaker and did great work in the outfield for the Indians. Joe Bush goes to the far west with a fine major league background. He was with the Athletics from 1912 to 1917 and then saw service with Boston, New York, St. Louis and Washington in the American league and Pittsburgh in the National before drifting back to his first love, the Athletics. He was in five world series, with three clubs, the Athletics, Red Sox and Yankees. TRADE THAT HELPS EVERYBODY CONCERNED The favorite statement of major league managers after making a trade of players is that the Geal will help both clubs. The transaction between the Brooklyn and Cincinnati clubs by which Catcher Johnny Gooch and Pitcher Rube Ehrhardt go to the Reds in exchange for Catcher Val Picinich, seems to come under that head. Picinich could not comfie to terms with Cincinnati so he wag of no use to Jack Hendricks and the manager-lawyer started the season with Sukeforth, his third- string receiver of last year, more familiar with the bull pen than the home plate, doing the catching. Manager Robinson at Brooklyn had plenty of catchers, but none ) spring condition pitchers need along with the rest of the players. approaching the hard hitting Picinich in offensive strength and he wanted some base hits. Ehrhardt, while no youngster, is a pitcher of ability and may win some games for the Reds. Brooklyn, on the other hand, has enough pitchers without the Rube if they can find the elusive SEED POTATOES | EXPERT SHOE REPAIRING A selected shipment of Haines,| It pays to mave your zippers and Alaska Seed Potatoes.
