SPORTS DREYFUSS UP AGAINST IT | IN SEARCH FOR PLAYERS Pirates Require Bolstering in Both Infield and Gar- den, But Lack Trading Material Acceptable to Rival Managers. BY JOHN B. FOSTER. EW YORK, January 7—Pittsburgh is one team in the National N League, at least, that needs strengthening, but Barney Dreyfuss does not know where in the world he is going to get the players. When Cutshaw went out of the National from Pittsburgh to Detroit, all the other seven clubs, except Pittsburgh, waived claim on a second base- vho played the best game of his life in 1921. “As much as Brooklyn :\neac‘:is“infigldirs we did not need Cutshaw back,” said Charley Ebbets. Which is another way of saying that he and Robbie take it for granted that Cutshaw is sere and yellow. Pittsburgh had held him, hoping that he would be good trading ma- terial, but it was not Cutshaw who was wanted when Gibson suggested trade or when some one suggested trade to the Pittsburgh manager. So waivers were asked, thinking possibly that he would slip through both cir- cuits, but to the surprise of Pitts- burgh, Detroit claimed him, and if he slays as well for Detroit as he did for Pittsburgh last season Ty Cobb hasn't hurt his team one iota, no matter what else may have happened. Fans Remember Wrecking. Pittsburgh realizes as much as any team in the National League that something must be done to bolster its strength. The lust-minute wreck- ing of the Pirates in September never will be forgotten by the Pittsburgh fa and_it is quite likely that it won't be forgotten by the Pittsburgh team all through the year to come. There will be plenty who will remind the players of it from the cover of the bleachers. Dreyfuss knows that he is weak on the infleld and he can't get along with his outfield. The minute that he starts to talk trade the other clubs ‘want the players whom he will not, relinquish. He can't afford to sacri- fice pitching strength, because he hasn’t a surplus and that which he has is mighty good. Every club with which trade has been suggested almost without ex: ception has asked for Tierney, while the player is not a good ranger on the infield, as he covers scant ground, Dreyfuss will not let him go, presumably because he can bat. New York players say frankly that one of the reasons for their success in Pittsburgh when they played the all-important series that settled the flying of the pennant in 1921 was the slow work of Tierney on the infield. Pirates’ Stars in Demand. Clubs have asked for Carey, for Cooper, for Schmidt, for Glazner, who appears to be the coming pitcher of the National League; for Morrison and even for the untried Traynor, who will surely be on the infleld in 1922, but none of them has asked for the men who were listed on Dreyfuss’ schedule as good trading material when the season finished. The Pittsburgh owner dislikes very much being compelled to stand pat on what he has got. He might put in a bid for Rousch of Cincinnati, who has put a barrier between him and the Cincinnati club that never will be over- come, but Dreyfuss would think twice and then some more before he would sign Roush to a contract calling for $18,000 a vear.

DAVE VENABLE, SANDLOT BASE BALL UMPIRE, DIES David Alexander Venable, for the past fifteen years one of the best known sandlot base ball umpires in the District, died Thursday at Gar- field Hospital after an illness of three Weeks. Dave, as he was familiarly known, was an(rbiter in the old Dis- trict and Caj il City leagues and later connected%ith the Independence and Church leagues. His last assign- mnt was with the Potomac circuit in 1920. Several times during his ca- reer as an official Dave was offered positions with minor leagues, but pre- ferred to remain among the amateurs. Venable, who was forty-seven years old, is survived by his mother, sister and three brothers, Clarence, William and Charles (Buck), the last-named long prominent in base ball here. Fu- neral services will be held tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock at Dave's late residence, 1107 South Carolina avenue southeast. SILVER SPRING COURSE T0 BE BUILT AT ONCE Contract for building the new course of the Silver Spring Golf Club_was signed last ght by Donald Ross, course architect. Work was sched. uled to begin today, and Ross prom- ised he would have the major portion of the task completed by the early part of April. Another inspection of the property. Ross said at a meeting of the board of directors of the club at the Rialto Theater building, convinced him that the course could be built with a com- paratively small outlay of money. The eighteen-hole course, he said, will cost $2.000 a hole. The original estimate ‘was $54,000. This, however, does not include rebuilding of the farmhouse now on the property into a club- house. Ross was very enthusiastic over the prospect for a fine course. He said the natural advantages of most of the Jand, which has been in blue grass for many yecars, removes the neces- ;:y for much plowing and seeding:. me of the proposed fairways need only a heavy rolling, he sald. Tom Moore and Dr. C. A. Baker were appointed to investigate the club- ‘thouse proposition and to confer with architects as to necessary changes in the farmhouse. W. Stokes Sammons, W. D. Blick and C. A. Slater were ap- ointed members of a committee to nvestigate the water supply system of the course and clubhouse. One hundred and one members have Joined the club, Secretary Frazer an- Thounced.
