By the Associated Press. TLANTA, February 13—Ned Hanlon of the old Baltimore Orloles started something when he brought his team South for Spring training in 1896. And, as a result, all the major league base ball teams will head for warmer | climes during the next fortnight to prepare for the April getaway in the big time.

FEBRUARY 14, 1932—PART FIVE. To Fight Landers CLEVER MITTMAN IN FEATURI AT ALEXANDRIA TUESDAY. TWO FFERS MADE BY HARRIS FOR VET INavin Has Yet to Sanction Deal Giving Nationals Catcher or Hurler. BY JOHN B. KELLER. OE JUDGE, who has done a J lot of first-basing for the Nationals the past 17 years, will wear a Detroit uniform | this year if Frank Navin, owner | of the Tigers, approves one of the two offers his manager, Bucky {Hnrrls. has made the Washing- | ton ownership for the veteran. From a reliable source it has | been learned that Harris has of- fered In exchange for Judge either Ray Hayworth, a catcher, tor one of the numerous pitchers | | Detroit now has in reserve and |that Clark Griffith, president of the Washington club, is willing to accept either offer. Harris, still at his home here, was hoping to hear again from Griffith, who now is at the National's trairing camp at Biloxi, Miss, before leaving' After a conference with Navin tomorrow morning the Tiger's manager will proceed im- mediately to Richardson Springs, Calif. where his battery squad will begin training next Saturday. If there is to be a deal between the Nationals and the Tigers involving Judge it probzbly will be put through right after tomorrow's conference in Detroit between the owner and the manager of the Tigers. RESIDENT GRIFFITH beyond ad- mitting he had had some conver- sation with Harris concerning a deal for Judge 2znd that under no cir- cumstances would he consider a cash offer for the veteran would not talk about the possibility of a trade with the Tigers before he went to Biloxi. | Since he has been at the Washington training camp not a word about such deal has come from him. It is understood that a geal had progressed to such an extent before Griffith left town, however, that only Navin's sanction was needed to close it. That sanction the Detroit owner refused to give. It involved an out-and-out trade of Judge for Hayworth, it seems. Harrls was quite willing to part with his first- siring catcher to get Judge, a high- class sacker sorely needed by the ‘Tigers, and Griffith was more than willing to get an experienced receiver m exchange. But Navin would not countenance the proposition. NCERTAIN of Muddy Ruel's throw- today for Detroit. TONY KOCSIS.

Just a few days ago the Detroit ciub sold to Toronto a veteran catcher, John Grabowski, so should it send Hayworth to Washington it prob- ably would have to look to Desauitels to do the bulk of the club’s work be- | hind the bat. At the time it looked Harris, in offering Hayworth, as though Harris would have to back dowp on the Hayworth offer. From, the best of authority, though, this is not the case. Bucky still is willing to gamble on Desautels and let Hayworth go in exchange for Judge.
