EW YORK, November 10.—Tom T Yawkey and Eddie Collins are turning a receptive ear in the direction of Cleveland. If a roar of indignant protest reaches them 1t will be the signal for the ever handy Yawkey fountain pen to scratch out large numerals for the services of Bob Feller, the sensational young pitcher who breezes a fast ball so swiftly that amazed old-timers are ‘unable to see or connect with it. Yep, should Judge Landis rule in favor of the Des Moines club and de- clare Feller a free agent, it will be a bidding race between the New York ‘Yankees and the Red Sox to obtain the services of the kid who turned his 18th birthday last Wednesday. The Yanks are reported to be willing to go as high as $75,000 and the Sox $25,000 better. The Yankees and Red Sox are bad- 1y in need of pitchers. The latter is ‘worse off than the world champions. Wes Ferrell kicked up in the fashion which caused his trade from Cleve- land. Bob Grove showed flashes of his old form and is counted upon for another good season. Fritz Oster- mueller did not come through as ex- pected, as 10 games won against 16 lost readily indicates. Johnny Marcum was expetced to fill in with at least 17 games on the winning side, but his contribution was a mere 9 games : against 13 defeats. Yawkey After Youngsters. VWEAK reserves had as much to do with the sixth-place finish of the Red Sox as anything. From this it may be seen that Bob Feller would be a powerful factor on the mound for a club which saw but four hurlers finishing with a better than 50-50 average for the season. That the Red Sox are in for dras- tic changes is admitted on all sides. The old saying that “pennants cannot be bought” or “won in the hot stove league” is more than ever true. When ‘Yawkey dipped into his generous wal- let and purchased players by the wholesale, some fans were ready to concede the pennant to the Sox. Rumblings of discontent, injuries end what ever else was used for an alibi, soon found the Sox wallowing in the depths of the first division and finally dropping lower. It was a sad blow for a sportsman ready to do his | 8 best to hoist a pennant flag from the topmost pole on Fenway Park. The Yawkey bankroll still is ready for further plucking. But not for established stars. Young ones like Bob Feller, as though there were many of his kind hanging around, are ‘wanted. Red Sox After Lewis. FABIAN GAFFKE, Buster Mills and Joe Marty of San Prancisco are being readied up for a neat price tag. Gaffke and Mills had trials last sea- son and shaped up nicely. Gaffke showed particular promise and will be hustling for one of the regular out- field posts. Marty is being touted as a better all around player than Joe Di Maggio. “That line of talk is not being handed out to New Yorkers. The coast Ital- ian, also a graduate from the Prisco Club, looks the best bet among young- sters to come up in years and Marty will have to be mighty good to per- form up to Joe's first year in the majors. Buddy Lewis has been confidently mentioned in a trade for Bill Werber. ‘Those who subscribe to that belief do not take into consideration the temper of the Washington fans. Buddy is a fixture and popular with Capital City fans. ‘Werber is more experienced and whatever else goes with a man who has been in the majors longer, but the fact that Young Lewis outbatted ‘Werber by fully 16 points is not to be sneezed away by windy arguments. Lewis played in 143 games in his first year with fast company and might well have batted over the .300 mark if the strain did not prove too severe on him. Yawkey cannot be blamed for eye- ing Lewis with covctous eyes. Lewis has the goods and would just about make the Boston infield.

The first, starting at 11 am, will be at Arcadia, with the afternoon and evening blocks sched- uled for Convention Hall at 3 and 7:30 o'clock, respectively. Possibility that Astor Clarke, Wash- ington’s No. 1 ranking bowler, would be unable to compete arose today as Clarke tried to fight off an attack of grippe.

Talbot Ponsoby Ends French Dominance—Wins in Four Jump-offs. BY BOB PHILLIPS, Staft Correspondent of the Star. ADISON SQUARE GARDEN, November 10.—Lieut. J. A. ‘Talbot-Ponsonby, young Brit- ish army officer tonight ended the French dominance of the military events at the National Horse Show when he won the international indi- vidual championship after a protracted fencing duel with Capt. Eduardo ‘Yanes, leader of the Chilean forces. With upward of 12,000 people cheering one of the most thrilling jumping exhibitions ever seen in the 40 fences without a mishap, to turn back the determined bid of the South American officer after four jump-offs. In the final test, Capt. Yanes's little mount, Toqui, faltered at one jump, while the British officer’s much larger horse gave his fitth faultless exhibition. The Chilean was charged with only four 'faults in his last time over the course, made more difficult by the rajsing of the bars, but it was enough to lose the decision and mark up Britawn’s first major lumph since its officers started coming to the Na- tional in 1910, Six Clean First Jumps. S!x of the 21 officers from seven nations gave perfect exhibitions the | first time over the course, but when the fences were raised, all except Lieut. Talbot-Ponsonby and Capt. Yanez fell by the wayside. Then the two began their duel, with the jumps being raised for each jump-off. At the end the “hog’s back” stood at 5 feet 3 inches, while the three staggered in-and-out fences varied in height from 4 feet 6 inches to § feet. ‘Third place, also decided by a two- way jump-off, went to Lieut. Douglas Cleland of Canada, while Maj. John Tupper Cole, leader of the United States forces, was fourth. Ma). A. L. Cameron of Great Britain was fifth and Lieut. Stig Holm of Sweden was sixth, Capt. Plerre Clave, leader of the French team, which had won the first three major military titles, failed to get by the first test, when his mount, Amidon, refused a fence and was eliminated. Lieut. Raymond Curtiss of the United States, winner last year with Don, also failed to survive the first test, being charged with seven faults. A B. DICK, master of the Dicksfield * Farm of Gurnee, I1l, and Frances Dodge, 22-year-old Rochester, Mich., sportswoman, ended the day all-square in their blue ribbon rivalry with nine victories each, After Highland Cora had won earlier in the day, the Dicksfield horses came back to take two blues and the lead at the night session but Soclety Barrymore from Miss Dodge’s barn chalked up a victory over a large field of three-gaited saddle mares over 14.2 hands in the final event of the day to deadlock the count. The Illinois-owned horses scored their successes with Melbourne Swell showing the way to a large field of Blue Ribbon Rivalry Square. and Highland Swell taking the class for pony tandems under 142 hands and driven by an amateur. Kudy King of Atlants, winner of six blues, bid for both classes but could do no better than second with La La Success against Melbourne Swell and third in the tandem event. Second in the latter went to Adrian Van Sinderan’s Glenholme Farm of Washington, Conn. Janet Sue Scores. Pirst of the important champion- ships went to Elsie Holdsworth of Seekonk, Mass, when her Janet Sue was judged the best of the five-gaited saddle horses. ‘The Summary: £7 2. youn gai “heis 5, G Bt s, Wiimer; fourtn.

Your answer, 9 times out of 10, will be bitser, bitey, raspy taste—a taste that gets THESE ARE FACTS—NOT CLAIMS You can prove them yourself by smok- ing 2 PHILLIES clear down to the end.

What causes this bitter, bitey taste in cigars? Just this. Ordinary curing methods don’t remove —and can’t remove— the bitter oils and barsh elements that are present in even the finest tobaccos. Can you buy a cigar that’s absolutely free from this bitter, bitey taste? The answer is YES . . . Bayuk PHILLIES. Here’s why. Bayuk invented 2 process that does two revolutio: things to the fine tobaccos used in PHILLIES. 1. Removes the bitter oils and harsh, bitey elements. 2. Mcllows and improves the real tobacco flavor.
