PLAYERS PARED IN MAJOR LOOP Chicago, Jan. 6.- 'U.R) Major league baseball clubs will travel) without any excess baggage during the 1932 season, it was dearly in- | dicated today with 15 players drop ; ped from the rosters of three American league dubs. Washington. Detroit ami the Chi-, cago White Sox yesterday start* .1 , economy measures which every major league dub is expected to follow before the annual spring i training trips commence next month. In an effort to cut down over j head many major league dubs will go to their training camps almost down to the new players limit of 23, which does not go into cfl.-et until June 15. The only American league dub with more than 40 players left on its roster at the present time is the New York Yankees. The Yanks have 41 players, but probably will; send several to Newark lud’ore starling spring training at St. Pet-' ersburg, Fla. Washington reduced its roster to j 26 players by sending eight play-1 ers to its Chattanooga southern league farm. Ad Liska, underhand I pitcher who was considered a bril-; liarit prospect until last season • when bis arm went bad. was released outright to the Chattanooga dub. The others, released on op-1 tion, were pitcher Masters, former Pennsylvania football star; catch-' er Phelps; first baseman Boss, infielders Travis and McLeod and outfielders Powell and Gill. Detroit pruned its list of players to 33 by sending five back to the minors. Outfielders Doljack, H. Walker and Hughes were sent to the Toronto International league dub. Outfielder Shiver, former Georgia football star, went to the Montreal league dub of the sam * lergue. First ba eman Greenberg was dispatched to the Beaumont Texas league dub. All were sent out on option. The White Sox disposed of two players, reducing their roster to 31. including Manager Lew Fonseca, j They sent infielder Irvine Jeffries I and outfielder Bill Norman to the.

The Berne quintet started off strong early in the season, but ap-| | patently has hit a slump.

Coach Laurent today reported his squad in good condition and' itching for a win over the strong | Adams county team. The Bears! will be supported by about 75 or 100 Berne fans. j BEAT BERNE. Friday night the Commodores I play a tough St. Rose of Lima, (). , team, Lima has played four games i so far this season. Here they are: St. Rose. 15; St. Gerard, Lima. 6 St. Rose, 20; Delphos 13 St. Rose. 18; Fremont St. Joseph. 24 St. Rose, 18; Fostoria. 19 Bill Quinn, veteran St. Rose center appears to be the chief cog! in the Lima scoring machine. Potthast and Hawkins, forwards both are veteran] lettermen. O’-! Brien and Burke, guards. w°re on ! the last year squad, but neither played regular. Hannan, Ayers.! Palmer and Blanchard make up the rest of the St. Rose squad. I Bob Young, regarded as on» of I tlm outstanding Class B n-»t I coaches in Ohio Is back the ! helm of the St Rose athletic de partment. Young has a great reputation as a coach in his native) j state and is develoning a strong! ) team at St. Rose this year. The Yellow Jackets on to BluffI ton Friday It's needless and useless to give out anv dope on! I the Parlor City's quintet—because! when it comes to a Decatur-Bluff-! ; ton net game—even if one team isi regarded as a complete flop—the ! game will have a lot of interest! and will probably end with a close! score. ] We believe that Decatur ea>> ; beat Bluffton at Bluffton. In ih<> I last several years, ever since Coach Curtis has been here, DeI catur has done much better than j break even with the Suburbanites. Steve Everhart's Central Grad- ! ers went to Hoagland this after noon for a game with the Hoag- ) land grade netters. Steve's crew should win handily. ! Two games still remain tetwe-r Central and St. Joe and there is ! every indication these last two . games should be thrillers. BEAT BERNE.
