Now that Stallings has lost Walter Maranville, who has joined the Naval Reserve, and Hank Gowdy, who is with the colors in France, the National league faces an- other lean year in Boston. The Braves were a motley crew as they finished last fall, and apparently they have not been: strengthened to any great extent, Red Sox the Pets. With both teams playing first- division baseball, the Red Sox have| the call with the home fans. Base- ball fans in Boston are clannish. For many vears they Tefused to patronize the teams that represented the Na- tional league at the Hub, partly be- cause they disliked the men who the National league did not have a winner in that city from the time that the American league captured the star players of the Beaneaters until Stalling’s turned out his world’s champions in 1914. Boston rooters adopted the Red Sox as their pets in 1903 when Jimmy Collins won the world’s champion- ship, and have supported them splen- didly ever since. So strong was the spirit of lovalty in 1905, when the Red Sox slumped and lost something like twenty consecutive games, the fans not quit. When the Sox finally hand to help them celebrate, It cannot be said that Harry Fra- zee is the most popular president the Red Sox ever had, yet he has spared | Police no effort to produce a winner. There was some feeling against him at first because he was not a Boston man, and Hub fans are strong for their own people. Too Much Ty. Jennings feels that he has been in Detroit so long that a change would benefit him and probably be welcomed by Tiger fans. His llnes have not al- ways fallen in pleasant places. For years Ty Cobb has been a dominat- ing influence on the Detroit club and in order to pacify him Jennings has been compelled to let Cobb do about as he pleases. The cancellation of the spring ex- hibition tour by the Giants and Tigers ranged the trip last spring, and later the dates were picked out. There can be no other reason for Owner Navin’s ‘“run out” than that Cobb declared he would not appear in ainy of the games. Another tour without Tyrus would be out of the question. Jennings appur_en_fly is powerless to enforce discipline in Cobb’s case. | Ban Johnson is'aware of these con- ditions in Detroit, and it is believed | that he will make an effort to place | Jennings in more cangenial surround- . especially when such a move will preserve Boston as an American league stronghold BOXING CLUB RAIDED Swoop Down on Broadway Sporting Club and Haul Ten Prin- cipals Beforo Magistrate.
