Time marched on, while the Moose tucked away a little batting practice, then after all but a few die-hard fans had drifted back to their firesides, and a bank of show- er-bearing clouds rolled up from| the South, Manager Simmons and| 1our more of the Elk legion, plus Catcher Red Gray, borrowed from Douglas, straggled onto the field.

Those who “have in- side dope” can't quite agree just which club Gabby will guide but they start with the Cubs and go right on down the list. They whisper that Hartnett will step into Charlie Grimm’'s shoes at the close of the current season IF (that big little word again) the Cubs win the pennant. Good Time Charlie is slated for an executive position, they have figured, because to take care of that is right now. {of Jack Dempsey in his prime. his “misery” "will not permit him to remain in the dugout with the team. Grimm’s recent illness open- ed the way for a test of Hartnett in the role of manager. It must he admitted Hartnett did better than all right. If Gabby does not take over the reins in Chicago he will be in the driver’s seat in New York. That's it—Gabby Hartnett, manager of the New York Giants! What about Bill Terry? That's easy. Terry, the gos- sips would have you believe, is about to step into an executive position in the Giants’ front office where his well known business talents will be given full play. Others “in the know"” will point - HARTNETT DID A GRAND JOB OF MANAGING THE CUBS WHEN PINCH= HITTING FOR TE ANNG CHARLIE + HE /S PACING HE TEAM IN BATTING AT PRESENT ts Reserved by The Assoclated Press out that the front gate of Forbes Field is wide open and a reception committee is waiting for Gabby, to talk over terms for managing the Pittsburgh Pirates. Pie Traynor is definitely through in Pittsburgh, they are certain. And Gabby Is just the man the Pirates need. Let’s hope Hartnett does not wind “up like the young man who sat home night after night because his friends figured he was so popular it was useless to invite him out. Gabby has been wearing the mask and pads behind the plate for the Cubs since 1922. He still is a great catcher and a glance at the battling records reveals that he is leading his teammates in hitting. But catching is getting to be more of a task as Gabby packs on extra poundage. He doesn't want to wait until he is kicked out before he gets settled for the future.

Cabegada who whips himself into fighting trim by lugging a heavy| carrinho up a mountain side. A carrinho, if you're not up on your Portuguese, is a basket sledge used for steep descents. The one “must” on the list of every visitor to Madeira is a trip up the moun- tain to Ribeiro Frio- Heights and then the 3-mile slide down the steep | ' cobble-stoned runway to the city of | Funchal. This affords one of the| main amusements—sledding among | palm trees, and without snow. To Antonio Cabegada it affords not' only an excellent conditioner for boxing, but a few extra escudos lor‘ his purse as well. i I have gone to no small amount of trouble in my travels to many foreign ports of call to look up box-| * ers and to observe of close range their methods of preparing for a boxing match, but never before have I come across one, and a classy one at that, who whips himself into fighting condition by climbing a mountain side with a carrinho on his shoulders after having guided his two or three passengers down the long, steep incline in same. Natives of Madeira are tremen-; dously proud of Antonio, and right- | fully so, for he is the greatest boxer ever developed on this 27x14-mile island several hundred miles off the west coast of Africa. Not long ago' Antonio made a voyage to Lisbon,| Portugal, and knocked out the fea-| therweight champion of Southern Europe. On his return to Funchal most of the island population turned out for a demonstration. Antonio is 21 years old and scales 125, and has the durability of a| pack mule.
