Tt will cost half a million dollars to ide. all the facilities needed for the Wu{’gr sports of the Olympic games at | Lake Placid, in February, 1932, Although the championship events SPORTS. are more than a year away there is| ;l!lt activity in the picturesque New | ork town. H ‘The sports events will be run over a | of 10 days and it is expected | 000 spectators will be on hand each | day, making a total of 80,000 for the | entire . An admission has not | been decided upon, but it would be necessary to charge each spectator | around $10 a day to get back all the money to be invested. But this is not | the plan. The money will be raised regardless of the gate receipts. The State and the resort town will share the expense. One stadium being erected will seat 4,000 persons and provide standing | room for as many more. Stands on the hillsides for the ski jumps and bob- sled races will seat 5,000 persons. stimated there will be 600 con- testants and perhaps 150 officials. In addition it is expected 6,000 spectators will be cared for in the resort hotels. ‘The championship program will get under w: February 4 with events morning, afternoon and evening.

SMEAD UESS I will hit the road and hit out for myself,” remark- ed our hero when 16 years “( i of age. That was 11 years ago. And J. Smead Jolley has been hitting out for himself and various base ball clubs ever since, hitting so earnest- 1y that twice he has taken down a bat- ting average of over .400, while never landing below the .300 mark. A victim of the late but not lament- ed non-selective system 18 J. Smead Jolley. He was ready to come to the major leagues two years ago, but the prohibitive price placed upon his re- lease by San Francisco prevented. And, while he was being held in minors, he was not developing. He always could hit, but when it came to roaming about the outfield he was no M nor Nor did he have the chance to improve his fiel in 'Frisco, be- cause the size of his home ball park was such that he had no chance to do much outside of backing up first base. Heralded as one of the test_hit- ters ever to come from the Pacific Coast was the Arkansas giant. But, when the season opened—in fact, when it was a month old—hits were scarce with Smead. And, because of the fact he was unused to patrolling such an ex- tensive beat as the right garden in Comiskey Park, his fielding was not the kind that endeared him to the fans. In fact, they suggested he either get roller skates or a motor cycle. ‘Then the big farmer boy from Arkan- sas began to hit and when Donie Bush, manager of the White Sox, moved him over into left feld away from the daz- zling sun, his fielding also improved. It was not long before the word was | ed along the line: “Don’t take any | iberties with that throwing arm that is attached to Big Jolley. He does not just throw. He fires the ball in and | always right to the spot.” Guess it was Connie Mack sent out| the wireless, for it was against the Ath- | letics on June 10 that Smead had one of his biggest days. All he did was to THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1931 mEam— & v JOLLEY. make a single and a homer, drive in 3 runs and contribute five putouts and two assists to the defense. The game went 11 innings. The Athletics scored two runs in the tenth and had runners on second and third with none out when the batsman drove a single to left. Jolley grabbed it on the first hop and shot the ball home in time to retire :,}l:? ;unnel’ who had tried to score from rd. Philadelphia still had runners on third and first with one out. The next batsman lifted a fly to left field. Jolley seized it with one hand and, whirling around, threw home to complete & double play. Oh, yes, when the official American League averages were issued they showed that Jolley led the gardeners with 17 assists. He made 193 hits, his average being .313. Only 10 American lers made more hits. Only 10 made more twg-sackers than he and only nine made more triples while he ranked twelfth in driving in 114 runs, thus setting the pace in that respect for his teammates. He drew but 28 passes, however, thus demonstraf that J. Smead never has been educa to wait the pitcher out. In fact, his motxto has been: “I swing at anything I can reach.” Base ball writers have commented upon Jolley’s lack of speed on the bases. Say, that big boy from Arkansas had & wonderful base-stealing record as an American League freshman. Was turned back but once all season. How many times did he try? Well, I'll admit he tried but four times, but three out of four is not a bad mark. When Jolley left his home at Wes- son, Ark., just 16 years of age, he went to work in the El Dorado oil fields. Then he decided he was a better base ball pitcher than oil worker. After two or three years of pitching, how- ever, in which he had but indifferent success, a minor league manager said to gxm- “Smead, as a pitcher, you are great hitter and possibly ‘y fair ouY: flek!xss." Smead, rather than go back to the oil flelds, became an ogmelder. Slash in Base Ball Expenses Is New Tendency of Magnates BY GEORGE CHADWICK. T is apparent that base ball as an organization is tending toward a curtailment of its costs of upkeep. A few talks with the major league magnates brought that fact to light. It is not because the game ir being poorly patronized but because of a mounting increase in its maintenance that the curtailment move is develop- ing.

While the major clubs will not sdmit | 4t, they carry nearly 200 more ball“ players than they need. If those players | were released to the minor leagues, not all of them would find work in the minors. Some of them lack skill. Also, the minors must begin to find their | own young players if they are to suc- | ceed The cost of maintaining a force of | scouts has been greater than the re-| turn derived from the “finds” of the scouts.

All the expenses of ground employes have increased greatly. It once was pos- | sible to open one of the larger stands for $300, whether a game was played | or not. That cannot be done now.| Twenty years ago it took about $25,000 | annually to get ticket sellers, ticket takers, ushers and so on in the line for 77 games. That sum is only a fraction of the cost these days. | Base ba]l is not complaining of its ' patronage, except here and there, but | it has found that inflation has gradually crept into its enterprise, and that a| common-sense upkeep must be planned | and undertaken.
