NEW TWIRLER IS PURCHASED BY TRIBESMEN Hendricks Closes Deal for Lee Bartlett, Giant From Far Northwest. INDIANS MEET YANKS Jack Hendricks' Indians today came into possession of a big right-hand pitcher from the far Northwest, who comes so highly recommended that there is every indication that he will win a regular berth on the 1921 Tribe hurling corps. He is Lee Bartlett of the VV innlpeg (Western Canadian League) Club, and he is said to have been a consistent performer all last season for his team. He stands 6 feet 1 inch and is said to carry plenty of weight with his height. .Bartlett’s record was of such a glowing nature that the Chicago Cubs were negotiating for his sarvices a short while sgo. However, when the Cubs failed to bid high the Winnipeg management grabbed the Indianapolis offer at the request of Bartlett, who indicated he preferred to try his skill In the Class AA as his next step in baseball. Bartlett’s home is in Monticello, lowa, and he will be ordered to report here for the trip South with the Indians next month. SECOND PLAYER FROM WINNIPEG. Bartlett is the second player purchased from the Winnipeg club by the Hoosiers, the other youngster being Outfielder Gene Morrison. Manager Hendricks will depart for Chicago Sunday night to be on hand early for the American Association schedule meeting there next week. He Will be Joined there by Owner Smith, who has been spending the winter !- California. The Tribe aresident wired Hendricks that he would attend the schedule session and then come to Indianapolis. Vice President Smith. Jr., is in New York, where he closed a deal yesterday with the New York Americans for an exhibition between “Babe Ruth and Company” and the Indians at Crowley, La . March 17. Residents of the little Louisiana city where the Indians will train this spring have been urging that Ruth be obtained for a performance and now that young Smitb has closed for the St. Patrick's day game, the Crowley baseball boosters no doubt will enlarge on their plans for the spring. Other Tribe exhibition games at Crowley will be with the St. Louis Cardinals, Philadelphia Americans and Texas Leagut teams. The Hoosiers also will take on the Brooklyn Dodgers In a pair of contests in New Orleans. DAYAN STAYS IN GAME. ST.

Judge Landis Expected to Decide Spitball Fuss in Fa% or of the Hurlers

NEW YORK, Feb. 12.—Commissioner Landis probably will take the spitball case away from the National League Jury soou and free the defendants. As the ease now stands four magnates want the rule to remain in force whicn put the moist ball deliveries out of business last fall. The other four owners want the rule recinded to allow the old spitters the use of their favorite weapon. It has been pointed out that the rule against the spitter In the minor leagues has shut oft the supply of saliva artists and there are fewer salary arms in the league now. and in a season or two the spitball player will be eligible for the national museums. The National magnates previously decided to spare the veterans who owed their success to the spitball. Since then, however, they have changed their minds to the extent of a deadlock. Han Johnson cracked the whip in the American League and his magnates all sat up and barked "Yes” when the president decreed that the ••spitters” should live until they died naturally. Being as one major league permits the spltbail It is likely that Judge Landis will prolong the life of the veterans with an official reprieve. Amateur Cueists Hang Up High Runs in Meet CLEVELAND.
