F the American League magnates I were sincere in their expressed de- aire to give Frank Chance and Frank Farrell a he ping hand, they will soon have the opportunity. The Highlander leader had barely lit in California be- fore he began making overtures to get former Manager Stovall out of his trou- bles at St, Lou's and give New York a real first baseman. It is now up to the league leaders to bring some pressure to bear on Col. Hodges and Branch Rickey and make them turn loose a man that they have humiliated and do not want. On ac- count of the troubles arising out of the | deposing of Stovall manger of the Browns, Col, Hedges !s quoted as saying that he will neither release Stovall nor let him play on the club. During the recent series of games between the Browns and Cardinals, that broke up in a row, Stovall came to the bench In |uniform and was ordered away by Rickey, When he tried it again his locker was broken into and his uniform taken away. At the eame time the new manager will not, or, rather, has not, siven Stovall his release, This is one of the matters that the Bagebat Play- ers’ Fraternity proposes to rake up at ite next meeting. Stovall is a corking good first base- man, and is just the man that Frank Chance needs, If a satisfactory ar- rangement can be made with the St. | Louls people it is very likely that he will be a member of the New York club next season, Col. Hedges has not de- cided what he will do in the matter, and it may ‘be necessary for the other mag- nates to straighten out the tangle at the coming meeting in Chicago. | THREE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ENOUGH.
