The big gap left by the flight of ! Gray Eagle, Tris Speaker, has come nearer to being filled by Ed Mor- gan than by any other aspirant for that difficult assignment. Speaker is the standard when centerfielders are under discussion, but the former Tulane university boy has made American league fans sit up, and take motice of his ver- satility.

Morgan starred in football as well ns baseball at Tulane.. His former ceach, Clark Shaughnessy, considers him one of the greatest of college [ etic procucts and a possible ruccessor to Ty Cobb in all-around baseball ability. Eddie need not be discouraged even if he falls a trifle below the bb or Speaker standard. K Only 25 years old, Morgan hit for .350 last season, but at that age Cobb ‘was pounding the American league ng for around 420, meanwhile putting on a combined. baseball act that has never been duplicated.

Harry Rice, who went to Detroit in the Manush deal, was traded to New York. The heaviest hitting Tigers of 1930 were infielders, Gehringer, Al- exander and McManus. Stone was 2 the first outfielder above the .300 mark while Funk and Johnson barely reached .275. CORNELL University turned up one of the backfield finds of the 1930 football season in Bart Vi- ciano, of Plainfield, N.

Or, to put it mote mally, Rob- ert Lee Dodd, back: coach at Georgia School of Technology. That Bobby Dodd, stellar quarter of the University of Tennessee's football squad, will make good as a coach, is the unanimous opinion of | experts in the south. H On all sides he is hailed as one| of the greatest quarterbacks of atl| time, especially in the south. During the 1930 season Dodd! kicked 74 times for a total of 3,019 | vards. His longest kick traveled 68| yards on the fly. He threw 96 pass- | es and completed 47 of them. These figures, say Tennessee of-| ficials, do not show the real merit | of Dodd's performance on passing,! for in all major games he was n; marked man and got t as off on the dead run ¢ penents rushing him from all sides.
