Tem was a physical giant by com- parison. As he developed, gained fame, Shevlin wondered whether perhaps he was not improving on Hinki record and prowess. Fin- ally mentioned the matter one v to Mike Murphy, the famous trainer. Mike, he asked “You sure are.” “Do you think perhaps I am as good as Hinkey?" Old Mike pondered a moment. then fished into his pocket and hauled out two coins. “See them, Tom?” He displayed a nickel and penny. “Well, that penny, that’s you. The nickel, that’s Hinkey.” am I a pretly good end? Hinkey was All-America end in 1891-2-3-4. Five Yale players were picked from the Yale team of 1894 for Walter Camp’s mythical eleven -Hinkey, Stillman, Hickok, Adee i Butterworth. Shevlin was an all-America end in 1902-4-5. Cleveland, which has not en- joyed a pennant since Tris Speaker led the Tribe to victory in 1920, may prove the main obstacle to an- other triumph for the World's Champion Athletics. More bally- hoo will be turned out for Bob Shawkey's Yankees but Roger Peckinpaugh’s Indians have better prospects of going places and doing things in the forthcoming race. Cleveland picked up two of the best first-year men of 1929 in Wes Ferrell, pitcher, and Earl Averill, cutfielder. In Bruce Caldwell, the former all-around Yale star who burned up the+Eastern League last season, the Indians have one of the best college products since George Sisler.

By EDWARD J. NEIL (Acsociated Press Sports Writer) | NEW YORK, Feb, 21.—Com- plaints may sometime come into headquarters over the caliber fighting loosed upon the sun- drenched populace of Miami, Feb- ruary 27, but there never was and probably there never will be any question that the sefting is the most pleasant and complete in prize fight history. Somehow or other the natives neglect to work themselves into frenzies over the prospect or lack of prospect of ferocious milling. For the visitors, the big, glistening arena in the heart of Miami is the “place to be” on the night of the | fights. For the natives, home town pride in the venture, the sud- den appearance of the “big time” lat one of fistiana's way stations, jand the color and glamor of it all, is sufficient to draw the multitudes through the turnstiles. When Willie Stribling, - son of the South, made his bid for heavy- weight fame against Jack Sharkey in the first of five annual heavy-| weight fiestas last winter, the holi- day spirit that pervaded the whole scene was the thing. This fight itself mattered little. There was little prospect of a ferocious strug- | gle and no one was disappointed When it was all over ‘the general exclamation was: “Well, it sure was a great fight ¢right up to the first round.” The setting of jai alai, sun, ocean, fishing and the general |the winter time will be there in force again to provide four-fifths| of the promotion for Sharkey's sec- ond appearance in the Florida play- ground, this time against Fireman Phil Scott, the leaning tower of London.
