Tud Red Sox will start south for spring training on March 15, arriving at Hot Springs, Ark., two days later, and will move north after a fortnight's stay there. Referring to the trade by which the Boston " club obtained Bush, Schang and Strunk, Mr. Frazee said he had been offered $50,000 by Charles Comis- key, owner of the Chicago club. for Bush alone.

While the foul did mot have the earmarks of being inten- tional, the bout was stopped by Ref- eree Lee. KID M’COY PUT ONE OVER ON THE SOUTH AFRICANS. Boers Did Not Think Gawky Hoosier Had Show W.ith Their Man—Soon Learned Their Error. Kid McCoy was always full of tricks, Tuesday was the 2lst anniversary of his fight with Doherty, the South Af- rican middleweight champion, in Jo- hannesburg, in_which a number of African _ wisenheimers were badly stung. McCoy had nome of the ap- pearance of the typical pugilist, and this gave some of the African sports a poor opinion of his ability. More- over, the 'Kid caused to be spread ‘broadcast a rumor that he was il and in poor condition, and the local man's backers swallowed the story whold. McCoy had his training camp in Johannesburg ond it was visited daily by large numbers fo sporting men, anxious to get a line on the Ameri- can. The sparring exhibitions put up by McCoy ' for their benefit would have disgraced a novice. . Doherty, on the other hand, showed off his _entire stock in trade when a bunch of spec- - | tators called at his camp, and he look- . |ed like an absolutely certain winner the was for $5.000 a side and a juicy slice of the gate, which was no inconsider- aple item. Tt was an entirely different McCoy that the backeds of Doherty saw in the ring that night. At the end of the second round it was seen that the American had all the best of it, and there was a scrambie on the part of Doherty’s backers to switch their betting. ~McCoy simply made the South African seem like an ama- teur, and in the ninth round McCoy. put over the punch that snt his oppo- nent to sleep. One of the few South Africans who had met on McCoy was Barney Barnato, the ex-clown, who had become the diamond king of South Africa. He later presented Mc- Coy with a dlamond belt and offered to back him against anyone In Eng- land. While on the way to England Barnato, driven Insane by his sudden wealth, jumped overboard. SPORTING NOTES The wives and sweethearts of world's series winners got their share of the gate receipts early yesterday morning. Knock wood, you Giants. You haven't lost a player through the draft yet, but they'rc going to take married | men as well as single. Earle Neale, the Red’s outfielder and former star footbali player, coach- ed the eleven at West Virginia Wes- legan this fall and scored a distinct triumph in this role. The Dodgers are going to play a se- ries of exhibition games before the baseball season opens. The Dodgers are also” going to play “exhibition games” after the season opens. Leo Flynn has a novel excuse for Kid Norfolk's recent defeat at the hands of Sam Langford. He claims the aititude affected the Kid's brathing apparatus and not Langford's stinging blows. K. O.
