Talking it OVER

WITH JOE WILLIAMS Tv TEW YORK, Jan. 17.—Observ--1 * ant as always, I note the indignation cf the customers over the railroading of Hornsby has reached that invetiable stage where protest leagues are being formed and awful boycotts are oeing threatened. To an old campaigner, constantly hope-

ful that out of all evil a certain modicum of good must come, this is most distressing. It is one of those paradoxical curiosities that whenever the venom of the customers reached this stage the resultant developments invariably rebound to the enrichment of the cashiers’ till. Not

Williams

Ihe least interesting and complex of the creator’s children is the sports customer. His capacity for indignat'on is surpassed ?sly by his facility for forgetting that he ever had a grievance in the world. He can be purple-faced with wrath in January and the epitome of good humor and enthusiasm in May. tt tt It was just .ib >iit a year ago that the peasantry of Cleveland, for example, was agitated to the boiling point over the refusal of the local ball club to reinstate Tris Speaker as centerfielder and manager following the deft whitewashing he, along with Cobb, received at the hands of the majestic Mr. Landis. tt tt tt AS I recall the circumstances, protest leagues were formed and awful boycotts were threatened and the situation assumed such grave aspects that there was talk of burning down the ball park and hanging the club owner—a member of the gentle sex, by the way—in scandalous effigy in public square. And at about the same time similar goings on were being enacted in St. Louis because the aforementioned Hornsby, who had a few short months before piloted the Cardinals into a world championship, had been summarily shorn of his powers and turned over to the Giants. “I’m through with it all,” shouted Mr. Gus H. Pan, who appears to be made of the same clay wherever you find him. “You’ll never see me at another ball game. The whole thing is a gigantic fraud and Wall St. controls it.” u tt Nor was this precisely a novel attitude on the part of the old fellow. Back in 1919 when it was revealed to a shocked world that certain members of the Chicago White Sox were low characters who valued sordid wealth above a group photograph emblematic of the world championship he said much the same thing in much the same way. tt tt tt BUT In this instance, as in the preceding ones, when the opening day of the season came galloping around, Mr. Gus H. Fan was in his accustomed place in the line buying one of those dollar tens which entitled him to profane the umpire, assist the manager in the more involved strategical maneuvers, stretch in the seventh inning and get home too late for a hot dinner. I have a frightened idea that the present outburst of fury inspired by the removal of Hornsby, and the increasing suspicion that Charles A. Stoneham has replaced John Joseph McGraw as the actual manager of the Giants will experience a similar climax. It is remarkable how these mounting rages melt under the spell of the resonant two-base hit and warm spring skies. While Stoneham is now looked upon by many of the customers as a fiend in human cast 1 (228 avoirdupois) all will be for-j given and more if those Giants hap-! pen through some miraculous chance 1 to be up there again next summer. o a tt It Is a game that can take tremendous punishment and in this respect it does not differ greatly from its supporters.

Stove League Chatter BY EDDIE ASH

W/TTH R °g ers Hornsby gone, the * New York Giants have Andy Cohen and a 33-year-old Chinese, Lai, to try at second base. Lai won’t make good. The hopes of the club are placed in young Cohen, not only that he might rill the berth acceptably but that he might develop into a star. The McGrawmen for years have been trying to land a Jewish phenom for gate purposes. Cohen had a great season in the International League last year and is regarded highly as a prospect by baseball men. Since Babe Ruth crashed into the big print the Giants always have been trailing the Yankees in getting publicity and even Hornsby failed to inject any drawing power into the club at home. Even with Ruth and Gehrig the Yankees have not been asleep and they have been scouting for Jewish boys to entertain a couple of million in New York. IT may be that the Yanks have beaten the Giants to it again. They say Colonel Jake Ruppert does have luck. After the Yanks had announced the purchase of Lary and Reese from the Pacific Coast League for $125,000 it developed, rather surprisingly, that Reese is a Jewish boy by the name of Goldsmith and that he was born on the lower east side of New York. Pitchers Buck Schemanske and Elmer Ambrose Monday night were cut from the Indianapolis club roster and transferred to the Quincy Indians of the Three-1 League, the locals’ farm. They are right-handers. Schemanske has been on the Hoosier roster three r.Kbcns, but illness kept Mm out of . tAon during cne year. Buck and Slme? are expected to become main*

FOUND! A center who would experience little trouble in outjumping Purdue’s lengthy pivot man, Charles (Stretch) Murphy, who towers six feet six inches from the hardwood. The find happens to be Milas (Slim) Shoun, Carson-Newman College star, who has been signed by the Chicago Bruins, professional court squad. Shoun stands seven feet two inches and weighs 205. Sports writers who have seen the human

skyscraper in action assert he is one of the deadliest shots in the country. He started his basket career at Johnson (Tenn.) High School and due to his work the team was undefeated for three years. During his prep days “Slim” averaged 25 points per game. Shoun’s home is in Mountain City, Tenn.. and height runs in the family. He has a 15-year-old brother who is six feet eight inches tall.. His 17-year-old brother is six feet ten nchcfi tall. His grandfather on his father’s side towers seven

He was ambitious to become a magnate at Rochester in the International League, but failed to obtain added capital and reports say his “twenty-five grand binder” was “confiscated.” OT. LOUIS Cardinals stepped In and purchased Rochester for a farm after selling the Syracuse franchise. Syracuse players will pjay for Rochester and former Rochester pastimers were bought by the purchaser of Syracuse. And that new owner will transfer the f's.”chise to Jersey City. Some shift! The victim Is Syracuse, the International League pulling out of there. Previously the Jersey City club was shifted to Montreal. It’s a checkerboard circuit. Jess Petty is to get $15,000 with Brooklyn the coming campaign. That’s a lot o’ dough, so be careful, Jess! The boy’s worth it, however. “One Eye” Connelly, of sport gate crashing fame, passed through the gates at the Paramount movie studios disguised as an “extra.” He donned a Russian beard.

Harris to Play For Chicago In Cue Meet Here One of the country’s foremost nonprofessional cueists, Dr. Andrew J. Harris, Chicago, is the first known entrant in the field of eight players that will compete for the 1928 western three-cushion championship of the Amateur Billiard Association of America at Harry Cooler's parlor in February. Tire doctor is a former national and former western champion and consistently has finished among the first three of all these tournaments. Harris beat this city out of a national champion three years ago. Louis Vogler of Indianapolis carried him into the final match at New York. Harris finished third in last year’s national and lost a subsequent challenge match to the champion, Dr. L. P. Macklin, of St. Louis. The Chicago regional championship has been settled, which accounts for Harris’ entrance. The Denver, Detroit, St Louis and Minneapolis regions have yet to complete their tournaments, and three Indianapolis players will be selected to complete the field.

Some pro probably will say after “Slim” has tossed in a few field goals: “Why, the big stiff!” And then would be the time for a Bruin teammate of Shoun’s to remark: "So’s his old man—and HIS old man!” Whoo-ee! u u tt We glean the information from “Hardwood Hits” of the Greencastle Herald that both the Clinton and Greencastle High School teams blossomed out with startling outfits in a recent game. Clinton had gold and black vertical striped jerseys, while the Greencastle team was attired in the black and white checkered variety of shirts. Hold everything! a a a ANDERSON, Ind., Jan. 17.—The city of Anderson and this entire district joins with the city of Frankton in mouring the loss of a true sportsman, Harry Kimmerling, brilliant little Frankton High School floor guard, who lies dead at his home after a short illness.

Finally it came and left us shedding crocodile tears for poor old Chiawgo, as Everett Dean’s Indiana University netmen ran wild to the count of 35 to 12. Had one of Everett’s boy friends tossed one more field goal the Hoosiers could make the unqualified statement of being three times as good as the Maroons.

The three stars of the game as far as we could learn were Branch (Ace) McCracken, Donald Scheid and Capt.' Bob Correll. The gentleman in the inset is Mr. Correll, by the way. Announcer Hogan kept saying “Gist” (or whichever Maroon it happened to be)
