Stove League Chatter BY EDDIE ASH
OSCAR VTTT, manager of the Hollywood Coast League club, has announced that Emil Yde, former Indianapolis pitcher and pinch hitter, will not be used on the mound by the Stars this year, thus enabling the stalwart southpaw to get a thoroug trial as an outfielder. Hints of
this move were heard some time ago. and now Vitt comes out with a definite statement regarding h is plans. He obtained Yde from Detroit, where Emil went by sale after helping the Indians win the A. A. pennant in 1928. Yde batted in c o n s i stent fashion for the Hoosiers, and was

Emil Yde
the best pinch hitter in the A. A. during the 1928 season. The fact he has had his ups and downs as a twirler moved Vitt to list him as a fly chaser. Anyway. it was Bill Lane, owner of the Hollywood club, who changed Lefty O’Doul from pitcher to outfielder several years ago. And O’Doul "hit for a million” and led the National League in 1929. Yde Is built on heavier lines and will need to speed his stride, but practice may trach him to get under the high ones and to udge the line drives. His chief tes'- at the start will be to develop an outfielder’s arm. for throwing for distance is far different than dishing ’em off the mound. a a m A SECOND pair of brothers will be with the Pirates when they go to California for spring training. Added to the brother act of Lloyd and Paul Waner will be Heinie Me ; ne, veteran pitcher, and Walter Metne, 19, also a righthanded flinger.

TWO STATIONS TO BROADCAST LAFAYETTE GAME
(kibs Look Rosy With Vet Squad McCarthy Gets ‘Breaks’ in Grooming Team for Another Flag Effort. BY BERT DEMBY L'nlted Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Jan. 30.—Happy in the thought that he has obtained the "breaks” during the winter, Joe McCarthy soon will head his Chicago Cubs toward Catalina Island with even rosier prospects than he had at this time last year. When Joe assembles his men on William Wrigley’s private land he'i have plenty of potential strength Good enough to win the 1929 Na tional League championship, the Cubs, because of several happening: during the off-season, appear to be a much better team than last year. Three Good “Breaks’* Chief among the “breaks” which have come McCarthy’s way is the acquirement of Lester Bell from Boston, the probably return to form of Gabby Hartnett’s throwing arm and the removal of the foot injury which bothered Rogers Hornsby last season. The Cubs were in need of a third baseman all last year and McCarthy Is satisfied that Bell will solve this problem. Hartnett believes he is as good as ever. He has been working out in a gymnasium here nearly all winter and of late has been zipping the ball about with the speed he once used. Other than Hartnett and Bell, the Cubs’ regulars probably will be the same as last year. Grimm, Hornsby, English and Bell form a good Infield, and capable reserves for the inner defense will be Blair, Beck and Tolson. Outfield Regulars Cuvier. Wilson, Stephenson and Heathcote, the four of whom finished last season with a combined batting average of .345. appear to be about all any one needs in the outfield. Zark Taylor. Hartnett and Johnnv SchuHe form a good receiving staff and the first-string pitching roster probably will be composed of Fred Blake. Guy Bush, Harold Carlson, Pat Malone and Charley Root. McCarthy will take thirty-four men into spring training, including sixteen pitchers four catchers, nine infielders and five outfielders. The most promrine new men are Danny Taylor, outfielder, who batted .367 for Reading; Lynn Nelson, 22-year-old pitcher, who won fifteen gr~3S and lost six for Kansas City last year, and August Walsh, who won twenty-one games and lost fourteen for Los Angeles. Other promising hurlers are Malcolm Moss, from Louisville, and Bud Teachout, from Indianapolis, both southpaws.

the fans watched Camera is “He’ll be a great fighter if he can stand a punch on the chin.” Working out for his fight here Friday night with Elsear Rioux, a 230-pound Canadian, Camera has amazed the fans with his speed in the ring. He is amazingly quick with his fists and the one thing he seems to need most now is knowledge about how to use a left hand. He is learning that from Abe Attel, former featherweight champion, who gives him daily lessons. Both Rioux and Camera have completed their heavy training and were to indulge in only light workouts today. Indications are that a capacity crowd will see the fight in the Chicago stadium, since Camera has tied up traffic in his street appearances and has drawn capacity crowds to his gymnasium workouts. He is considered almost certain to win. Danville Trips Muncie Quintet By United Press MUNCIE. Ind..

ALL eyes and ears will be on Lafayette tonight, where Purdue will try to stop Loyola, the mighty Chicago quintet which has piled up a record of thirty-four consecutive wins. The highly press-agented battle of the Murphys may be a complete flop, but even so, the game still should be one of the best on Hoosier courts this season. And even if Purdue does have Johnny Wooden and Kid Boots geared up to smash through that zone defense, Backboard still thinks the Ramblers will win.

Purdue Is Ready for * Ramblers Boilermakers Hope to Stop Loyola Win Streak: Murphys Clash. . „ / Pm Time* Special LAFAYETTE. Ind., Jan. 30.—Attempting to stop the Loyola university of Chicago victory streak that has extended unbroken through thirty-four games, Purdue's Big Nine pace-making quintet will take the floor here tonight in what, promises to be one of the feature court games of the year. Only 3.000 fans, at the most, can be crowded into the Purdue gym to witness the battle, but thousands of others will be crowded around their radios getting detailed reports. Two stations, WBAA of Lafayette and WIBO of Chicago, will be on the air with the game, play by play. The Loyola five is built around Charles Murphy, namesake of Purdue’s own Murphy. The Ramblers hold wins over Montana State and Butler, the only two teams that have humbled the Roilermakers. Unusual color is given to the game by the fact that it will make the first meeting between the two Charles Murphys, pivot men and captains of the two teams, over whose relative ability basketball fans have been ‘fanning” for the past two seasons. Purdue is expected to depend on speed to break down the justly famous Loyola zone defense that ha3 played a big part in the success of the Chicago crew.
