S ' Harris Says Speaker Is His Ac PORTS BOSS BUCKY IS BANKING ON GRAY MATTER OF VET “Spoke,” as a Private in the Ranks for the First Time in Many Years, Says He Feels Fine and Is Expecting a Great Season. - By the Associated Press ar | AMPA, Fla., March Stanley | Harris, manager of the Wash- ington club, thinks Tris Speak- er is his ace in the hole. “T believe we had a good club before we grabhed ‘Spoke,’ and he makes it A great one,” Harris said. “Speaker is one of the really great players in the game, but it is not so much what he will do in the outfield and at the bat—although he will do plenty—I am talking of now, but the use of the old gray matter he has under that zray hair. “Spoke knows how to play the out- field and it will be a great thing for ‘Goose’ (Goslin) and Sam (Rice) to have him in there hetween them. Expects Smart Outfielding. “Many a ball game has been lost because a sloppy hit was played just that way. It goes down in the box score column as a hit. but with a smart outfield it wouldn't have been, and smart outfielding is just what we have with ‘Spoke' in there." Harrls is confident that his team will win a 1ot of games, but at the same time is not overconfident and is not claiming any pennant in March. “This club has wonderful spirit and promises, from here, to be well bal- anced. We will have a world of speed, for all our younger players are fast.” As to Mound Staff. The young manager was asked about his mound staff. “Well, we have 21 and surely we should get 6 or 7 good ones out of that bumper crop. Nobody on our club is worrying about Walter John- son or Coveleskie, who are the only real veterans. They will be there. Fred Marberry is an experienced pitcher, but he’s young in years.” Another thing Harris is counting upon is the team's likely looking .re- serve strength. “If we bump into a_ jinx we have an antidote 1n the flock of good sub- stitutes infleld and outfield. “All in all, we are not downhearted." “If T was in your business I would say that T am a cub reporter again,” Tris Speaker said when he reported he | Spoke.” as the hall players call him, is a private again after vears of managing the Cleveland Indians. But he is not a private in_the rear rank, for Griffith, Harris & Co. expect him to be a very bright and shining | star in the senatorial quorum offered | for the approval of American League ans, He was laughing when he called himself a “rookie.” for he knew that he was the regular center fielder and nominated to bat third in the batting order before he donned a Washington uniform in Spring training. Found Managing No Worr “I suppose it will be a little differ- ent to be just playing instead of play- ing and managing,” he said. “but not a whole lot. The managerial worry never weighed me down. 1 won't know until T try it, but it would seem that it would be an easier job men- tally to manage just ome player in- stead of a whole club. “I feel great, and naturally 1 am counting on breaking in with a great year here. I think this club will play some great base ball, for, in addition to the boys on it who I know can play, there are a flock of good-looking youngsters. .I'll certain- Iy do my best to do my. part.” Good Word for Mc. Tris has a good word to say for Jack McCallister, who succeeded him as_manager of Cleveland. “He is a great fellow and will make a splendid manager,” was his esti- mate and prediction combined. Speaker was reminded that Cleve- land found it easier to get a man- ager than a center elder. “Oh, they have some good youns fellows out there. - One of them will come through,” he suggested. 'DEMPSEY WILL CONTEST IN ELIMINATION TOURNEY By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, March 9.—Jack Demp- sey's pugilistic future rested today in the hands of Tex Rickard. The for- mer heavyweight chanpion has em- powered Rickard to match him against any opponent in the elimination tour- nament now under way at Madison Square Garden. Return of the former ‘“Manassa Mauler” to the ring he forsook after Gene Tunney whipped him in the rain at Philadelphia last Fall completes the string of challengers now groom- ing for the champion’'s first title de- fense in September. Dempeey wired the promoter from Los Angeles that he was ready to fight any. contendér Rickard might choose and that it made little differ- ence to him who that contender is. ‘The recent infection of his hand and arm, result of a finger scratch, now has left his system, he said, and in a week he expects to start training in a mountain camp. Rickard Is Elated. Rickard, elated at.the return to the lists of the most colorful drawing card in fistiana, immediately laid plans for two Dempsey matches. The first would bring the former champion against Paulino Uzeudun, another en- tertaining mixer, at the Yankee Stadium in the first week in June. The match will hinge on the Span- jard’s showing against Tom Heeney of New . in the last indoor match of the series March 23. ‘Then, if Dempsey proyes he again is the weaving battering figure that rufed the boxing kingdom for seven Vvears, Rickard will match him against the winner of the Jack Sharkey- Jimmy Maloney battle, scheduled for May 19 at the Yankee ball vard. The possibility also apjvared that Jack Delaney, ~who lost a fierce struggle to Jimmy Maloney, will be given another chance to prove his worth against Paulino or Heeney. The _light-heavyweight champion con- tended that he fractured a wrist in the Maloney fight .and entered the ring with a bad muscle injury received in training. News of Dempsey's return to the resined battlefield encouraged Hum- bert J. Fugazy, Rickard’s metropoli- tan rival in the promoting field, to #end his matchmaker, Lew Raymond, to Los Angeles with an offer for the former champion to box at the Polo Grounds here this sumer. Rickard, however. is understood to have an agreement covering Dempsey’s ring activities. Rickard is “tickled to death” to hear of Dempsey's decision. “I have felt all along that he would try to come back, but while the doubt has exist. ed, my plans have been up in the air,” he said. “Now 1 can go ahead and complete the program with the as- surance that all the contenders will have a chance to battle for the right 1o face Tunney,” he added. The promoter also is convinced that With the ITTING 183 in the third game of his set rolled for the Tem- ple team last night in the District League, Albert (Dutch) Newman, set a new, high all- time record for a league game here. Newman turned the feat on the North- east Temple alle: The former mark —-182—was made by “Tip" O'Neill of the old Treasury team of the former | Departmental League. Dempsey, once again close to his for- mer fighting power, is a more formi- dable contender for- the title than any of the present crop. “He won't be harassed legally and otherwise this time, as he was before the Tunney fight,” Rickard said. “Free from worry and seriously applying himself to conditioning, I believe he will have an excellent chance of fight- ing his way back to the title. One pre- liminary fight will prove whether he has lost his hitting_powers for good; but at any rate, Dempsey has an- swered the crit. s who insisted he was not entitled to a return championship match without first testing his ability.” Fights Last Night By the Associated Press.

BY ARTHUR URBAN No. 3—Straight Ball, Hook £ and Curve. “{ERE are three deliveries in duckpins that cause the ball to roll straight, to curve or to_hook. In .delivering the straight ball the hand is kept well under the ball and the sphere is rolled off the tips of the tingers. The curve ball is delivered with the fingers on the right or outside of the ball, the hand being drawn up with a cutting motion at the moment of delivery, but without a quickening of the arm motion. If the curve-ball bowler desires the ball to “break” or curve quickly, achieving what is com- monly called a hook, this effect may be obtained by increasing the arm motion toward the delivery peint in the swing, giving the wrist a snap just as the ball is de- livered. This increases the spin of the balt, and the result is a decided “break’ or shoot of the ball just before it reaches the pins. All curve or hook ball bowlers have to allow for the veering of the ball and really never swing or shoot at the pin they desire to hit, but at an imaginary line to the right of it. There probably is no way to com- pare the merits of the three deliv- eries other than to say the straight ball with just a little spin is the best method of delivery, if it comes at all patural to the individual. —Afttey conditions differ to some ex- tent everywhere, and that works against the curve-ball ‘bowler, for the ball is apt to curve more sharply on one alley than another. However, the curve or hook seems to give more action to the pins, and for this reason is used by the more expert bowlers. But the straight or nearly straight ball is the one to master. It will be found better in the long run. Some few bowlers use an incurve or a ball that “breaks” to the right. It is not a natural delivery, and consequently not good for the average bowler to attempt. B MOST OF DIXIE COACHES APPROVE GRID CHANGES CHARLOTTE, N. C., March 9 (®). —The Charlotte Newe in a copy- righted story signed by Edward V. Mitchell, its sports- editor, and pub- lished vesterday, say that 20 foot ball coaches of the South, including 14 from the Southern Intercollegiate Con- ference, have expressed ‘‘general approval” of the changes in rules enacted by the rules committee at its recent session in New York. Only two coaches, Dave Morey of Auburn and B. W. Blerman of Mis- sissippi Aggies, went on record as op- posing the changes. Willlam Alexander of Georgia Tech declined to comment at this time. 84 Chances prices | cient manner in which he conducted | HERE was considerable specu- lation and not a little uneasi- ndss apparent today in " the various' public high schools as to what the status of members of the various Spring sports squads will be as the result of advisory marks that go in on Friday. v Some of the base ball coaches, feel- ing that it would be a waste of time and effort to lay their plans before knowing just whom they will have available, have thus far made little actual preparation for the campaign. However, as soon as the “bad news’ is known, the mentors will count noses and immediately begin earnest prep ping. A number of those in charge of ath letic activities in the local high schools believe that the time is not far dis tant when two sports that have been rapidly growing in popularity throush o the country in recent years—soc- o0 iha Tacrosse—will be adopted by the schools here. Dr. G. Harris White, athletic direc- tor of the high schools, believes that of the two soccer would be the more desirable, as it would provide an out- door Winter game, the equipment for which is comparatively inexpensive. Dr. White points out that high-class competition likely would prevail from the institution of the sport in the high schools, as many of the students play the game in the elementary and junor high schools. A number of coaches are keenly in- terested in lacrosse and would like to seo it added to the schools’ list, but 1dmit that the cost of equipping a twelve to play the old Indian pastime and the fact that it would conflict with base ball and track are matters that would hhve to be seriously con- sidered before the game could be started here. There are some among the coaching fraternity, however, so optimistic_as to believe that conditions in a few years will be such that both these sports each of which is chock full of action and color will be fixtures on the sports calendar of thelocal schools. Two 10-man teams of Western High will begin firing Friday night on the school range in the national inter- scholastic team championship matches. The first team will comprise J. Pres- cott Blount, David S. and Douglas C. McDougal, Frank Wedderburn, Doug- las Gilbert, Richard Solyom, William Davis, Robert Hulburt, E. Norton Barnhart and Robert Kearney. Com- posing the second team will be Ben- jamin Lindsay, Nelson Barnhart, Charles Jumper, Perry Rutherford, John Wilbrick, ' Clarence McClaine, George Balsir, Robert Emery, Kelley Chadwick and George Mondell. Four Western rangers are com- peting in the tryouts for the team to represent this country in the inter- national rifle matches this year which are being held locally at Camp Sims, Congress Heights. They are Douglas and David McDougal, Douglas Gilbert ard J. Prescott Blount. Western marksmen are engaged in a shoot this week with the Navy Plebes. Strayer's Business College tossers who fell before Deyitt in a 43-29 en- counter last night tonight will end their season with a game against the Warrenton (Va.), A. C., in the Old Dominion town. Tomorrow night a dance will be held in honor of the Strayer’s team to formally mark the close of their season. This has been the first court campaign for the com- mercial boys, but it has proved a de- cided success largely because of the work of Coach Irving Sanborn. In losing to Devitt yesterday Stray- er's tossers were behind all the way, although they put up a gallant fight during the first half, at the end of which they were trailing by only 2 points. at 19 to 17. Devitt generally outclassed the commercial boys, how- ever, in the second half. Hutchinson and Moyna were scoring aces for the victors, with Cappelli and Croson find- ing the cords most often for Strayer's. With a number of veterans again at hand and a group of newcomers of tried worth available, it appears that Devitt will be represented by a fast base ball nine this Spring. N. E. 8ill, a member of the school's faculty, will coach the squad. Thus far 11 games have been booked OTHER, SPORTS ON PAGE .32.

BY FREDERICK G. LIEB, The Base Ball Dopester. T. PETERSBURG, Fla., March 9—Down in Rhis citrus belt they already have decided that those two old rivals, Connie Mack and John McG will hook up in the 1927 world series as they did in 1905, 1911 and 1913. It the pennants already are in the bag, then what Is all the shooting about? 1, too, will try to pick winners later on, and, 1 trust, with something of my past success, having picked 10 of the last 12 since 1921. My present impression is that both the Athletics and Giants are overrated. I do not say that I will not eventually pick one or hoth of these clubs, but 1 fail to see where It is a hreeze for either. | Giants at | Spent week with the Sarasota, and N York's National League entry is a confident crew The club has some good new men without doubt. Hornsby. Roush and Grimes will help, but Hornshy must be the Hornsby of 1925 rather than of 1926 to be a big improvement over Frisch Hornsby Is Hustling Now. Hornsby's spirit has been wonder- ful, and he is going out of his way to hustle for his new team. In that respect he has made a big hit with his new manager, John McGraw. ““T cannot say how well I am pleased with Hornsby's actions,” said Me- Graw. ‘“Being traded off the Ca after he had won St. Louls’ National League pennant and the world series was a tough blow to Hornsl Perhaps he felt it more keenly than he has shown. Another man might have Sulked, but Hornsb; has adjusted himself to his new p sition, and his only thought at pre: ent is how much service he can render to the Giants.” Grimes, too, is a new man. He was hog fat the last’ two Springs. This year he is lighter than I ever saw him, Spring or Summer. He sees a world series on the distant horizon and already is preparing for it. Me Graw, expects him to win 20 games, or not very far from it. McGraw will have a strong club, but even with Grimes, there is no substan- tial imrrovement in his pitching de- partment. He has let go of Ring and Scott in Winter deals and has ac- quired Grimes, Bentley and “Dutch” Henry. Virgil Barnes and McQuillan are good pitchers, but something or other always ails them. They are not big winners, fellows who can go out and win semething like 18 or 20 games. Catching Staff Doubtful. The Giants’ catching staff must prove itself under fire. At this time a 50 Al Devormer, former Yank, is regard- ed as first catcher. However, Mc- Graw seems to think that he has an- other “Schalk or Cochrane in Cum- mings, a lad who immediately can step out and take his place among the same’s catching stars. The Giants may feel rather confi- dent, but over at Avon Park Bob O'Farrell of the Cardinals also has a pretty good opinion of his team. If Hornsby is hustling for McGraw lfi: record—Finished seventh, winning | Frankie Frisch is hustling just as rd for O'Farrell Frankie hat those world series pots, especially after sinking a lot of his hard-earned money in Florida. Pittsburgh again is going to kick up a lot of trouble. Readers may recall that T strung along with Pittsh rgh almost to the last last season. I felt the Pirates had the best team in the ational League, and but for that mid immer mutiny I belfeve the have won. That internal disorder un- questionably has been remedicd Right here in old “St. Pete” the, Ros. ton Braves think pretty well of their chances. If this club ever can play all season the way it does in the Fall it will get somewhere. “Hanny" still has some good pitchers, but | don't think particularly much of his 1927 indeld. He plans to use old Jacques Fournier at first, little Gautreau at second, himself short and Fddie, Moore at third 3 Fournier showed in his last two sea sons in Brooklyn that he now is toe slow to play regularly in the major leagues, while little Gautreau never will hit sufficiently to make himsel¢ valuable as a regular. Moore also will show many defects if he is called upon to play in 134 games. Mack's Veterans Overrated. In the American League most eyes aprarently are on Connie Mack's Ath leti>s and his new acquisitions, Cobb, Collins and Wheat. It would be & great thing if old Connie could drag down another pennant at 64, but it seems to me that the value of th three veterans has been greatly ex- aggerated. In doping base ball races I go in for fact and figures and push all senti- ment aside. That's the only way in which the dope can be made to stand up. The fact in this case is that Cobh is starting his twentythird season, Collins his twenty-secon® and Wheat his nineteenth. All three of these players had trouble with their legs last season. Wheat played | 111 games, Collins in 106 and Cobb in What assurance has Mack or any one Ihull r!wnc players will be any better in 3 At_the same- time I doubt whether the Yankees can repeat, and the sec- ond place Indians of 1926 will not be the same club without Speaker. I am not picking any winner yet, but George Moriarty is going to work wonders with that Detroit club. The American League situation will be dis- cussed more fully next week. ALONSO IN TOURNEY.
