Vance May Be Treaded It would he some swell news fo hear that the greatest pitcher in baseball, as he is rated | 4 ers, had been sold or traded up or down that well-known river. Yes, it would make a hot item for th pers to chronicle that Mr. Da Vance had been pardoned from Brooklyn and released info the cus- tody of somc other keeper. Mr. Vance traded this winter. If faction, which owns onc-half the stock of the Brookivn club succeeds in its avowed purpose of getting rid of Uncle Wilbert Robinson, Yance will he knocked down to the best hid- der. And, even if Uncle Ttobby re- mains, the hostile wing of his hiring firm may go over his head and get ‘some good cash for the while he is worth goed cu all seem to be agreed that the Da ler does not m-an a pennant to th Brooklyns and the customers do not batter down the gates just to sce him pitch. There is too much whif- fing of batsmen when he is working. It secms to have heen decided for the president-manager of the club that he doesn't necd all those pitchers. The Pirate owners have already been told. it is understood. that they could have Juss Petty and Gink Hendrick for Glenn Wright and, it is understood also, the tip 1s out that if Petty i=n't the proper bait the Dazzler will be hung on the hook. Tt isn't necessary to waste space calling the names of the clubs that could rse the Dazzicr, but it is mor difficut to sort out the best gue on what club would give the mos. for him.
