BY JOHN B, FOSTER. ILLIAM WRIGLEY, owner of the Chicago Cubs. has his heart set on winning the world series in 1930 in ad- dition to the National League pennant. So has Manager Joe Mc- Carthy. Their first step toward strengthening the Cubs is in purchas- ing Lester Bell. third baseman, from the Boston Braves. Changes in the pitching staff also are expected. For a long time the sharps have been telling the management of the Cubs that more punch was needed at the third base corner. McCarthy tried to get it, but first-class, hard-hitting third basemen are not so plentiful. McMillan No Hitter. Norman McMillan, who played third for the Cubs this year, batted .269. That is mot a very grand figure in these days for heavy slugging. McMil- lan was the lead-off batter, a position that is not relished by many oall play- ers. A batter has to be born a suc- cessful lead-off man to be at the top. Bell was wild to follow Rogers Horns- by to the Cubs, He will be back with him next year. If he plays success- fully, with Hornsby there to prod him along. he will strengthen the punch of the Cubs about 20 per cent at third base. If the team were strengthened in that ratio all the way around, the Cubs would walk out on the field in 1930 with a bludgeon on their coat of arms instead of four claws. Bell a Socker. In the 1926 season Bell batted .325 for the St. Louis Cardinals when they won the pennant. The next year he batted .350 for the Cardinals, but he did not play in all of the games. He was ill. St. Louis let him go and Boston took him. He batted .277 in Boston in 1928 and he might have done better if there had been any hope that the Boston team could get anywhere. In 1929 Bell almost reached the .300 mark again—he batted .298. He is a rough and ready third baseman. Astounding stops are succeeded by clumsy boots. The Cubs will like him use he can make up for anything that he misses in the field by what he can hit on the nose with a bat. (Copyright, 1929.)

All of a sudden the ball squirted out of a mass of players and the cry of “Fumble!] rang out. Those on the bench leapt to their feet so as not to miss anything and a spare ball rolled out onto the field. The extra oval was immediately scooped up by a player who dashed down the field to score with it, while at the same moment one of his oppo- nents was scoring at the other end of the field with the real ball.

Barnett, professional at the Chevy Chase Club and holder of the Middle Atlantic pro title. Barnett, who is busy daily on the practice tee at Chevy Chase giving lessons to the members of the club, with many of his pupils from the fair sex, claims that women are going at the game nowadays with such well outlined principles and such determination to ‘become good golfers that their progress is certain, in his judgment, to be more rapid than that of the men. Woman players have more time to ) practice, Barnett claims, and they have a different slant on the gal from that of the persons of the male persuasion, Barnett claims. Many men, he says, although they wish to improve their game, take golf as a means of exercise and diversion and instead of practicing shots go out and play a round of golf. Practice, in the opinion of Barnett, is the surest way of provement in the game of golf, and | male players do not practice often enough.

By the Associated Press. OUISVILLE, Ky. November 2.— | Jack Dempsey was on his wry | back to Chicago today with thc memory of a reception from box- ing fans here that must have | recalled the enthusiasm his presence aroused when his popularity as heavy- weight champion was at its height. Dempsey came here to referee the 10-round no-decision bout between Bushy Graham, Utica, N. Y., and Cecil Payne, Louisvilie, lightweights, but the fighters were distinctly secondary to the referee. The erstwhile champlon, now pro- moter, was met at the railway station on his arrival at noon by a noisy crowd of 3,000 or so, taken on a tour of the city, shook hands with the mayor. spoke over the radio, was made a member of a cooking club and then between rounds at the fight was kept busy autographing programs thrust at him by a good por- tion of the crowd, which numbered pos- sibly 10,000. It was one of the largest ever to witness a fight in the State. One of the local newspapers awarded most of the rounds to Payne, and an- other to Graham, formerly recognized by the National Boxing Association as bantamweight champion, but the con sensus of newspaper men at the ring- side was that it was a draw. Dempsey was interviewed by a local sports writer in a dialogue over the | radio. “I may fight again and I may not,” he answered one query. “If I do, it will be in Chicago in a year or two.” | _He named Jack Sharkey as the most | likely contender for the heavyweight championship. BY LAWRENCE PERRY. | RINCETON, N. J., November 2.— The presence of A. Alonzo Stag i coach of the University of Chi- cago eleven, in Princeton today | evokes a multitude of memories of a Yale athlete who in point of gen- eral proficiency, sterling manhood and | utter sportsmanship stands among the ! elite of all times. | Alonzo Stagg wore the blue of Yale in | ! a heroic age of foot ball, an age whea | It was man to man, when wHat an in- | dividual really was counted in the first a well as the last analysis. It was a | day when a good end had to prove he | was good against another end. And it | was tackle to tackle, guard to guard, head to head, fist to fist. | “They wore heavy canvas jackets. laced | to the throat, in Stagg's day and toques | with little tassels appended. There were 1“0 training tables then, and if a man g0t a broken leg he lay on the sidelines until some one carted off. Stagg's last game of foot ball against | Princeton was played 40 years ago at | the Berkeley oval in New York City, an | area now given over to apartments and hotels. At least on November 28 next it | will have been 40 years ago. He was an | end, right cnd, and with him on the Ell outfit were such heroes as Hefelfinger Jo.n Hartwell, Wurtemburg, McClung, McBride and the rest. | _His play was sensational, although | Yale lost that day. It was the last time | he ever faced the Tigers as a player, but | the first time he faced them as & coach, 1in 1921, he had the satisfactionsof see- ing his Maroon team win, 9-0. 1888 he plaged left end on Pa Cor- y Stagg Star as Gridiron End ; Against Tigers 40 Years Ago| bin's team, which defeated Old Nas- sau, 10-0. | As good as he was as a foot ball player, he was even greater as a pitcher, as Princeton has reason to know. In one of his games in 1890 played at Princeton—the last time he ever ap- peared as an athlete in Tigertown— Princeton made six hits off his deliv- ery, losing one of the few major col- lege games he ever lost, 1 to 0. It was a curious fact that when he first played base ball he was not looked upon as & pitcher, and the ancient ‘recnrds of base ball between Old Eli and Old Nassau place him at third base. Today dramatic interest is lent to the game between Princeton and Chicago by the fact that Alonzo Stagg's son Paul will be in at quarterback for the midway team. He is, every one says, a fine working field general and a wall carrier. He may not prove to be as pro- ficient a foot baller as his father was, but that would be asking a great deal. It might be of interest to note that on the Princeton eleven is another son of a famous father, Langdon Lea, son of an all-America Princeton tackle, Biffy of Philadelphia. The boy, who has in- herited his father's nickname, gives promise of attaining a goodly measurc of fame, albeit he may never stand out as his father did. Stagg has been bullding throughout the seascn with reference to this game, and the Maroons are certain to play better foot ball than they have thus far displayed.

A bad | selection does not hurt the | selector's feelings as much as | & slice off the bank roll and the smart | ones went for plenty on the Walker- Hudkins tilt. A wild rumor traveled the rounds of caulifiower alley that the scrap between the champion and his foremost rival was “in the bag.” Jack Kearns, with his eyes pointed toward the light heavyweight title, was to take over the management of the new middleweight champion, Ace Hudkins, and so pocket the profits of two champlons. Kearns knew all about this rumor and per- mitted it to gain credence as it was told by not bothering to deny it. This was added proof that the tip was cor- | rect. But the wise ones have never | been able to figure out the wily Kearns with the result that Mickey Walker went out and fought on his merits and won & just victory over Hudkins. | Unfair to Kearns. |~ Jack Kearns is the most abused per- | sonage in the boxing game. Every time Jack figures in a contest the ery is raised that something under cover is hidden. It has been said time and | again that Kearns has fixed this fight | and that fight but no one has yet come | forward with proof that Jack has been a party to any underhanded doings. Several months ago the writer wit- nessed the Mickey Walker-Leo Lomski fight in Philadelphia and watched the scrap closely to detect signs of an under- standing between the principals. It was rumored around town that the boys would waltz through the 10 rounds and meet in a teturn go on the coast, Fight Looked Straight. The writer failed to detect any acting by the pair and thought that Mickey and Leo gave their best. The wallops both men directed at each other, and landed, exploded the theory that the men were doing business. " Kearns is clear for the time being. Ugly rumors will again crop to the sur- face the next time one of his fighters articipates in an Important contest. Poes Jack care what is sald about him? He'll laugh outright when asked for an opinion. s The oldest event for 3-year-olds fn the United States is the Travers Stake, | which was first run at Saratoga in 1864. HUNT RATED BEST OF GARDEN MITES Schwartz in Headliner Monday Night. BY JOHN J. ROMANO. EW YORK, October 30.—Local fans are tumbling to the fact t! Tom McArdle has lined up an unusually good card for the reopening of Madison Square Garden next Monday evening. Flyweights have not been in the lime- light in this city since the passing of Punching Pancho Villa, 5o that the mites of the ring have not been ac- corded much c“ance to show their wares in the temple of fistic science. But now all that has changed. Mc- Ardle thinks he has the puncher the fans have sought and in Eugene Huat, the European flyweight, the punch has been restordd in the 112-pound class. McArdle has & ¢ League of Nations lined up. Huat, a Frenchman, tackles Schwartz, Jewish, and recog- nized title holder in this State; Midget ‘Wolgast, an Italian, swaps punches with Johnny McCoy, an Irishman, while Ernie Peters, a Chippewa Indian, faces Speedy Dado, a Filipino, and Willie Davies, a little Scotsman, breezes along with Black Bill, a Cuban, What could be more delightful than this hodge podge of nationalitie¥ struggling for supremacy in the squared circle?

Belanger has fought Izzy Schwartz, Frankle Genaro and others of that type without once being knocked off his feet. Huat not only knocked Belanger down eight times, but put him down for the full count in six rounds.
