Mpyer to Train Early at Hot Springs : DeFino Takes Tri-City Duckpin Tourney TERMS 0.K. BUDDY ISEAGERTO START Nat Second-Sacker Wants to Recover Speed Lost After 1928 Season. BY JOHN B. KELLER. NE National who was ex- ted to do a bit of balk- g about the matter of a new contract proved quite tractable during negotiations with club headquarters here and now is in line for the 1930 campaign. | He is Charles Solomon Myer—or Buddy Myer, if you will have it so. l‘ Charles Solomon’s letter of ac- ceptance now reposes in the archives of the Washington club offices and according to President Clark Griffith the young fellow who resides in’ Ellisville, Miss., between diamond seasons appar- ently is well satisfied with what is to come to him. With the acceptance of terms by Myer, Griffith has in tow three-fourths of the infield Manager Walter Johnson | very likely will send into action at the start of the next American League campaign. Joc Judge, first-base veteran, accepted terms some time ago as did Ossle Bluege, who everyone hopes will be able to perform better than ever at third base since his trick knee has been prepared. Only Joe Cronin, San Fran- cisco youngster, who again is slated to assume the shortstop position flanking Myer, remains out of the fold. That Myer is determined to get a throttle hold on the second-base place at the jump-off this year instead of stepping aside to let Jack Hayes squirm into the berth is indicated in & desire expressed by in communi- cations with the Washington office to permit him to do some preliminary training at Hot Springs, Ark. Buddy has asked that he be sent to the Spa for a thorough workout before report- ing at the Biloxi. Miss, training base and the request has been given Grif- fith's O.K. Will Tramp Ozarks. So Buddy is to leave his Ellisville home the middle of this month for the Arkansas resort and for three weeks will go through a course of exercise and baths calculated to take the kinks out of muscles that have not been so pliable for a year or two. Not only will Myer tramp over the rugged hills surround- ing the Spa, but he also will immerse himself in the various sulphur, mud and steaming water pools that have made Hot Springs famous the world over. Buddy will not be without company at Hot Springs. Sam Rice, venerable outflelder of the r}lltanlll. lekf: !Zlvin yesterday, headed for the Ozarks. e Myer, old man Rice feels it will be better for him to loosen somewhat be- fore crashing the more strenuous train= ing routine to come at Biloxi. But Sam isn’t planning to do the same condi- tioning work as Myer does at the Spa. Instead, the veteran gardener intends to do most of his exercising on the many fine golf courses about the Ar- kansas resort. Both these players are to report at the Biloxi camp March 9 hnd they should do so greatly benefited by their work-outs at Hot Springs. That Rice feels it necessary to get in a bit of early training should occasion no surprise. Sam, as Nick Altrock would say, “is geiting young no faster.” He is, ac- cording to the base ball records, nearly 38 yeors old and when a ball player gets that -+ along in his career he needs some -xtra tonic. Myer, though, is only a1 his twenty-sixth year and at first consideration it might seem odd‘ that he needs the preliminary tune-up. | ‘Would Regain Speed. Buddy, though, believes the extra training will enable him to show more | foot in play this year than he did last. He feels that in 1929 he was con- siderably slower than he was the pre- vious year when he played with the Red Sox and he does not want to feel so sluggish this year. That Buddy L':‘ justifiedn thinking he lacked his usual | #speed during the last campaign in the . American League may be realized when his record is scanned. With the Red Sox in 1928, Buddy batted at a_.313 clip and socked the ball hard. He fielded for an average of 969 at third to finish third among the hot corner guardians of the circuit and pilfered 30 bases to lead the league | in that respect. With the Nationals in 1929, Buddy hit at exactly a .300 pace, fielded only .936 at third base, where he started the campaign, and put .958 at second base, where he played the great- er part of the time. He also swiped only 18 sacks to fall far behind the league leader. If it wasn't loss of speed that caused this 1929 slump, Buddy does not know how to account for it. ‘The Nationals' headquarters will be shifted to the Southland this week. ‘Wednesday morning President Griffith will close his desk at the Georgia ave- nue vark and head for Dixie. He will be accompanied by Eddie Eynon, secre- tary of the club, and a personal secre- tary. Griffith will stop off in Chatta- mnooga for a day or two to see how the lookouts of the Southern Association are shapin> up under the guidance of Joe Engel, chief executive of the minor outfit as well as lone scout of the Wash- ington club. Griffith, of course, takes | # keen interest in this Southern Associa- | tion club, as it is to be the main Wash- | ington farm. Moves Office to Biloxi. From Chattanooga Grifith and his party will proceed to Biloxi and estab- lish headquarters in the Biloxi Hotel, where the remainder of the business of lining up his players for the im- pending championship race in the Bar- nard circuit will be done. How easy | will be this task remains to be scen. While the Washington chief has noth- ing to say—as usual—concerning hold- outs, 'tis well known that several of the boys are not so eager to accept terms offered and may have to be spoken to sharply before they will sign on the dotted line. Most standoffish of the Nationals at present are Goose Goslin, erstwhile thumping outfielder; Fred Marberry, the club’s leading pitcher last year, and those perennial little balkers, Muddy Ruel, clever littl: catcher, and Sad Sam Jones, wily pitcher. Nothing satis- factory to the club’s powers-that-be has been heard from this quartet re- cently, and in all likelihood none of the four will close until he confers with Griffith at the Southern training camp. Manager Johnson at present does not plan_to get to the conditioning field at Biloxi before his pitchers report there on February 26, a little more than three weeks from today. As Johnson considers the matter, there will be noth- WILLIAMS - Center HANNA - Guard CAPT.WooD- Gusrd VETERANS OF WASHINGTON AND LEE FIVE WHICH VISITS MARYLAND TOMORROW IOWAIS RETURNED TOBGTENFOLD But Bans Athletes It Dis- qualified. BY PAUL R. MICHELSON, Associated Press Staff Writer, HICAGO, February 1.—The Uni- | versity of Towa was reinstated | to good standing in the West- | ern Conference today by the conference faculty committee. The re- instatement is effective at once. The decision to readmit Iowa was reached after 4 hours and 25 minutes of discussion, the trend of which was not revealed. | While Iowa was reinstated, the | action was not without qualification. | In a 'supplemental statement to the | one giving Iowa a clean bill, the faculty committee members flatly stated that they were not convinced that all evils had been corrected, and advised Iowa authorities against applying for rein- statement to eligibility any of the ath- letes disqualified December 11, 1929. At that time 27 men, including 11 who | still are in school, were banned from | further competition. Barred Last May. Jowa was barred from athletic rela- May. Subsequently, two petitions filed by the school for reinstatement were denied. Iowa was returned to the fold today, however, without having made 2 new formal plea. Announcement that the North Cen- tral Conference of Colleges, of which Iowa is a member, that it would inves- tigate athletic conditions at the Hawk- eye school, inspired the action on the part of the committee. It was felt Towa ing for him to do there before that time. | side agencies were not still at work to tions with the other nine schools last | igan; Prof. J. F. should be spared further humiliation, considering that it had mggde ecarncst efforts to comply with suggestions made | by the faculty group, to improve its athletic affairs. | The reinstatement resolution read: | “Whereas, the conference is satisfied | that the athletic authorities at Iowa | have re-established the principle of fa ulty control, and are earnestly deavoring to correct conditions which | led to the suspension of athletic rela- | tions; and ““Whereas, although there still is rea- son to suspect that certain forces out- side the administration are still re- sorting to improper methods of aiding athletes, the conference has confidence in the ability and determination of Iowa authorities to ascertain the facts and to deal effectively with such abuses as may be found to exist: Therefore, be it | “Resolved, That athletic relations with the University of Iowa be resumed, effective at once.” University Is Cautioned. Following up the statement that they | ‘were not completely satisfied that out- > aid athletes, the committee issued the supplemental statement which cautioned Towa against asking that the athletes already barred be returned to good | standing. This statement read: “It was moved, seconded and carried | that it is the sense of the meeting that Jowa authorities be informed that it would be inadvisable to apply for reinstatement to eligibility those ath- letes disqualified December 11, 1929, For the first time since its suspension, Iowa was not represented in the meet- ing. On both previous occasions when | the case came before the committee— last June and at the regular mecting last December—the Hawkeye school had a delegation of faculty and athletic men to plead its cases, both of which were rejected. Each of the other nine institutions was represented by its faculty mem- ber. They were Prof. F. Long, North western; Prof. H. C. Anderson, Mic! . Pyre, Wisconsin; Prof. W. J. Moenkhaus, Indiana; Prof. James Paige, Minnesota; Prof. Willlam Marshall, Purdue; Prof. Thomas E. French, Ohio State; Prof. A. C.

In a fanning bee yesterday at the ball park offices during which the big boss of the Washington club and Manager Walter Johnson alternately held the floor, some interesting tales were recounted anent the career of the dia- mond veteran who passed away Friday at Hickman, Ky. and who is to be buried at his boy- hood home in Janesville, Wis., where he started in the game as a bat boy 52 years ago. It seems that in addition to aiding in the development of any number of young players and umpires with his blunt, but kindly meant words of advice, Cantillon not only proved of inestimable value to the Ameri- can League when it first was launched by scouting for play- ers, but was directly responsi- ble for the change in the rules whereby base runners are per- mitted to advance only at their peril when a pitched ball strikes the person or clothing of an umpire while he is back of the plate. As recalled by Griff it was during a hot series between the Boston and Pittsburgh clubs, that Cantillon, then an umpire, rendered a decision that stirred a big fuss. One of the teams had a man on third base when a pitched ball was dropped by the catcher and lightly struck Cantillon’s shoe. The latter refused to permit the runner automatic- ally to score, despite the reg- ulation then sanctioning it, on the common sense ground that the ball would not have rolled more than a few inches if it had not hit his foot. The result was a protested game which ultimately led to the revision of the code as it stands now. Cantillon Was Canny. As an umpire, and he was a mighty good one, too, ac- cording to Griff, Cantillon never would put a player out of the game, but he lost few wordy battles with any of the ath- letes at that. “I remember one game I was pitching, with Cantillon the umpire, when a player who had been growling continuous- ly at Joe’s decisions finally reached first from where he bombarded Cantillon with vile epithets. “I had a deceptive motion the umpires never would let me get away with,” Griff con- tinued, “but somehow or other I got the notion it would not be ruled illegal at that particular time, so I whipped the ball over and Cantillon promptly thumbed “out” to his tor- mentor. “Later on in the game, how- ever, when I employed that half-balk toss in an effort to nip another player off first, Joe simply grinned and admon- ished: ‘That stuff won't go T Johnson Chips In. EFERRING to the Summer he made his big league debut, Johnson recalled that CIliff Blankenship, en route as agent of the Washington club, stopped off at Wichita, where he arranged to purchase Clyde Milan, and complained to Zeb that he had to take a long, tire- some train trip to Idaho to “land socme big busher named Johnson, who probably isn't worth the railroad fare.” According to Walter, he gave only his word to report to Washington in exchange for $100 from the club, which he insisted on as insurance against having to walk back, and he as- serted it is true that Blanken- ship never saw him pitch a game until he joined the Nationals. “Cliff looked me over while I THE SIDE LINES With the Sports Editor By DENMAN THOMPSON AMERICAN U FIVE TAKES A THRILER Gets Three Points in Final Minute to Defeat Elon by 29-t0-26 Count. NEAT goal from scrimmage by Orville Targee and a toss from the foul stripe by Woods in the last minute of play enabled American University's basket ball team to break a 26-26 tie and vanquish Elon College of North Carolina, 29 to 26, last night in the Eagles’ gym. It was the first defeat for the South- erners on a trip during which they have coriquered High Point, which de- feated American U. early this season; V. P. I, Emory and Henry and Bridge- water. ' Despite that four members of the Elon team were rangy, which gave them an advantage over the smaller A. U. quint, particularly when play was under the basket, the Eagles carried the fight to the invaders most of the way. In the first 10 minutes A. U. gained a comfortable lead, but Elon cut this down later, and at the half the Eagles were ahead by only 17 to 15. In the second half battling was nip and tuck with the lead constantly al- ternating.-Just after the score had been tied at 26-all, in the last minute Elon daily practices, which started at 8 o’clock at night—it stays light right late up there—and said it wouldn't be necessary for him to wait until our next weekly game the following Saturday. “And Blankenship missed one for the book when he passed up that battle,” Barney continued. “It was over at Caldwell, a nearby tcwn and intense rival of Weiser. Everybody used to take the day off for base ball, the railroad ran special trains and plenty of money was wa- gered by the rabid adherents. “At_that time I hadn't been scored on for 75 innings, but the Caldwell backers imported a battery and three other play- ers from the Coast League and bet heavily. The Squeeze That Failed. “The tenth inning came with no runs made, and we got a man on third with nobedy out. The leading doctor of our town, who was an ardent fan, and al- ways sat on the players’ bench, offered half of the $1,500 bet he had made to the next man up if he got that run in. “This player happened to be a sort of tramp who had blown into Weiser and made the team cn the strength of his fielding, although he was an awfully weak * hitter. Seven hundred and fifty dollars sounded like a million to him, and in an effort to make sure he collected he wient up and flashed the squeeze sign. “Caldwell’s imported pitcher was using a lazy wind-up, and as our man on third started for | the plate too soon he was with- | in a stride of it before the de- ‘ was warming up at one of the livery, a pitch-out, arrived. There he waited for the bunt, making no effort to step on the rubber. Our hobo athlete missed with his stab at the wide pitch. To the runner this meant only that the play as planned hadn’t gone through, so he hot-footed it mack to third. Arriving there he discovered the ball also had gotten past the the catcher, and dug again for home, where he was flagged. “And Caldwell,” Walter con- cluded, “won out in the eleventh inning.” ON the eve of quitting the Capital for his new t as boss of athletics at Columbia University, as Tom Mills moves in from Notre Dame to take over the reins at Georgetown, Lou Little issued a statement that is typical of him, an ami- able chap and a thorough sportsman, despite the martinet tactics with which he obtained such fine results as a grid | coach. Here it is: | “In leaving Georgetown to- | day to take up my duties at Columbia, I cannot do so with- out first expressing to all, whether directly or indirectly connected with the university, my sincere appreciation of all that they have done to make my stay in Washington most happy and my work pleasant and, I hope, successful. “Without the constant sup- port, the encouragement, the good will and advice of all those interested, I could have done nothing worth while. This brief note can give little idea of my gratitude for the uni- versal kindness shown me, but it is the only way to show my leellnfx and appreciation.” Little takes with him to New York the best wishes of the sports-writing fraternity as well as the fans of Washington. He deserves lots of luck—and none of it bad. | PROFESSIONAL HOCKEY. Pittsburgh, 3; Detroit, 2. Maroo: Montreal ns, 7; New York Americans, 2 COLLEGE BOXING. Army, 6; Temple, 1.

STATE QUINT JOLTS MARYLAND Old Liners Lose, 26 to 28, in Late Stages After Once Overhauling Foe. ORTH CAROLINA State sprung a distinct surprise by defeating the University of Maryland quint in a Southern Conference basket ball game at College: Park last night, 28 to 26. ‘The Old Liners, whose passing was greatly off par, were trailing at 10-16 at intermission. They did show a flash of good*basket ball in the early stages of the second half and in less than 10 minutes of that period took the lead and once were ahead at 25 to 21. Here Haar, the visitors' ace, made good on two tries from the foul line and then shot a floor goal to deadlock the issue. A free toss by each kept the teams on even terms, but after Brown made a side-court basket to give the invaders their 2-point edge, the Wolf- pack “froze” the ball as much as pos- sible and Maryland gained lon of it only two or three times before the final gun. Maryland started out well and in the figst few minutes ran up an 8-to-2 lead. "Then the Old Liners' g be- came erratic and North Carolina State, playing & smoother game, had posses- sion of the ball most of the time, and kept counting consistently until the close of the half. ‘With Berger, Radice and Gaylor dis- playing some real basket ball, Maryland tled the count at 19 all with 7 minutes of the second half gone. The game then slowed up and in the next 6 or 7 minutes Maryland added five points, while the visitors were gaining a pair.

ROOKLINE, Mass., February 1.— Eighteen-year-old Mianne Pal- frey, one of Brookline's five tennis-playing sisters, today be- came the woman's national indoor singles champion by defeating Mrs. Marion Zinderstein Jessup of Wilming- ton, Del, a former holder of the title, 7—5, 6—2, here on the Longwood cov- ered courts. Miss Palfrey, probably the youngest player that ever won a national senior tennis title, was unplaced in the draw. She blazed through the tournament and won her title by defeating half of the eight seeded players. Mrs. George W.

In the singles final, Mrs. Jessup won the first flve games because Mianne's judgment of distance was a trifle off. ‘The Brookline girl then gained perfect control of her shots and set up a furious cross-court attack that gave her the victory in seven consecutive games. Late in the first period, Mrs. Jessup pulled a tendon and this mishap was |~ a heavy handicap. As a result Mianne won the first four games of the second set, giving her 11 consecutive flnfi,m her ping opponent. The al four went with service. COLLEGE SWIMMING.

ENTRY VICTOR IN UPHILL BATILE Boston Girl Beats Capital and Baltimore Stars With Fine Score. BY R. D. THOMAS. N Italian beat a Portuguese and a Greek yesterday and last night for an American bowling championship. To elucidate, Tony De Fino of Washington finished in front of Manuel Silveira_of Boston and Leo Vulgaris of Baltimore in the grand finale of duckpin tourna- ments held by The Washington Star, the Boston Herald and the Baltimore Sun. Stlveira is a product of Portugal and Vulgaris of Greece, but both are th oughly Yankeeized, and De Fino's at- hch{nent to Italy is only one of senti- ment. Tony totaled 1,128 for 10 games, five rolled in the afternoon at the Balti- more Recreation and the others at Con- vention Hall last night. Manuel col- lected 1,095 sticks and Leo 1,044, None of the three performed up to the standards they set in winning tourna- ments that had a grand fleld of more than 3,000 bowlers. Girl Gets Spotlight. De Fino was downright fancy at times, but the spotlight was swiped from him by Janette Killgren of Bos- ton, who won the girls’ play-off, with a total of 663 for six games. She van- quished Helen ncer of Baltimore, Wwho shot 617, and Bess Ackman of Washington, with an even 600. Both De Fino and Miss Killgren struggled uphill. Silveira opened with & game of 152 and came away from Baltimore a strong favorite, with a set of 582, against 564 for De Fino and 550 for Vulgaris. Only the Washing- tonian, however, was able to keep going in the last set. His score was the same as in Baltimore to a pin, but Silveira slumped to 513 and Vulgaris to 494. - Both of the latter were victims of an uncommon number of wicked splits from excellent hits. Spencer looked an almost cer- tain winner after shooting 321 in Bal- timore, against 303 for Miss Killgren ;I:wnlfi for Mrs. Ackman, but the n entry, a comely youngster whose skill and gameness won her many supporters in the galleries of both cities, swept to victory at Con- ventional Hall with a set of 360, one of the highest ever rolled here in mchmplofilhlp o:anp:tétil‘:n, Her score well earned. missed few breaks and her first ball invariably was in the pocket.

Washington and Lee had won Seven straight es and was a heavy favorite. It was sald that the Generals had had little practice all week, due to examinations.
