CHANCE FOR BLACK S0X New York Sport Promoter Organizes a Semi-Pro Tcam Hecaded by Joe Jockson and Buck Weaver, New York, June 29.—Joe Jackson and Buck Weaver, who were banished from organized baseball following the world's series scandal of 1919, are to form the nucleus of a semi-profes- slonal team to be placed in Brooklyn, according to a statement made by Eddie Phelan, under whose manage- ment they will play. What the finan- cial arrangements are Phelan declin- ed to state. What grounds the team will use the manager declared would be announced later. Phelan is one of the Promoters of the New York asso- ciation of semi-professional baseball clubs. “I have no hesitancy in saying that I am managing Jackson and Weaver," said Phelan when see at his office in the Alhambra theater building. “They will become identified with the 2,400 organizations of the New York asso- ciation of semi-professional clubs in this state. I have looked into the charges against Jackson and Weaver, and I have come to the conclusion that they were entirely guiltless of any wrongdoing in the world's series of 1919. They say that they did not get a square deal. I agree with them. They have every right to make a liv- ing, and I am going to do all in my power to see that they have an op- portunity to make one. There is no reason for stopping them from earn- ing a livelihood, and I believe all fans who believe in a square deal will agree with me."” Traffic Cop Motorists have to obey Ruth Wein- stein, New York school girl rushes into the street with this sign whnever the beil for fire drill rings.
