Stove League Chatter B\’ EDDIE ASH

ST. LOUIS is a great soccer town. and followers of the rough and swift pastime indulge in the sport in the Mound City all through the winter. And among the army of players there is Joe Sprinz. first string catcher for the Indianapolis A. A. entry. It’s Joe's pastime of

keeping In shape during the off season and he is sure to be one of the first members of members of Johnny Corriden's crew to reach diamond form after the Florida sun hits him next month. Sprinz picked up many valuable pointers about the American Association from Corriden

Sprinz

last season and predicts the redhead will fit right into the managerial berth and prove popular with the team hirelings. When Sprinz first Joined the Tribe last spring someone referred to him as "Just another St. Louis German,” but "Choc” hustled hard, caught more than his share of games and led the club at bat most of the season. Lack of gab when in action is Sprinz's baseball flaw and Manager Corriden is straining his mind trying to figure out means to make Joe use his voice more and with volume. ana Speaking of baseball voices, the rhampion yodeler is said to be Benny Meyer, scout and- coaeh with Detroit last year. Ben fairly shakes the park when he cuts loose with his yells, and he is known among big league players as “baseball s earache.” nan IT is said when Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig barnstormed throughout the west in the fall a few wears ago that both of the big Yankees cleared more money than their contracts of that season called for. It’s hard to believe, but New York says its true. ' a a it Burt Shaitan, pilot of the Phillies- come* out with the prediction the Cub* and Athletic* will repeat a* champs this season. Burt also believes his club will finish in the first division, crowding out one of three teams. Pirates. Giants or Cards, n B o Shotton rates Lefty O'Doul the greatest natural swatter in the National league, and as for Chuck Klein, the Phillie boss goes Into raptures. "Chuck hit some of the longest drives in the league last rear.' Burt said a few days r.go, "and when it comes to pickline them for distance consistently the husky Hoosler has no equal in the National." THE Phil manager points out that Klein proved last year he was no mere flash and “from now on ” Burt chirps, "watch that baby put the wood to the sphere. And he’s improved rapidly in all departments —really a great ball player. b a Ted McGrcw. Indianapolis umpire, who has graduated to the National League, played second base for the. Canton Central league club in 1908 and on third was Bill McKechnie, now manager of the Boston Braves, and behind the bat was Bill Rarlden. former big league and Indianapolis Federal catcher. 888 Harry Heilman n says one guy who’ll tell you Art Shires, fights were not framed is Lena Blackburne, former leader of the White Sox. B B B Not since the days of Jnhnny Kling. the one-time star catcher of the Chicago Cubs, has baseball produced a pocket bllllardist of the class of Leo Durocher. the New York Yankee lnftelder. Recently Durocher met Marcel Camp, the Detroit sensation, in private games in New York. Twice he beat Camp In flftv points matches, but round Camp a little too strong In the longer testa. It also developed that Durocher once extended Arthur W oods. veteran pocket billiard star. Durocher lost by only six points In a 125-point game.

Fast Mexican Here Tuesday

K ' ... - ■*- '

Tony Herrera

THE latest Mexican fistic flash, Tony Herrera, formerly of El Paso, but now fighting out of Chicago, will battle Eddie (Kid) Wagner, Philadelphia, in the local Armory ring Tuesday night in the main go of ten rounds. Herrera is regarded by many critics as a big threat to Sammy Mandell’s lightweight title, Tony resembles a streak in action and goes at near top speed from bell to bell. He beat the wellknown Jackie Pilkington in Chicago last week and checked Pilkie's march toward the 135-pound crown. Local fans will remember Herrera as the winner over Jimmy Hackley in the Armory last spring. In his match with Eddie (Kid) Wagner, Herrera will be matching wits and punches with a pug who has stopped such notables as Kid Kaplan and Sid Terris, and who has decisions over some of the best in his division. Wagner beat Billy Rose of Cincinnati at the Armory a short time ago.

The board of directors today took under advisement the recommendation of Attorney-General W. H. Price that the Standard Stock and Mining Exchange suspend operations for a few days. The suggestion was made by Price after the government had arrested nine leading mining brokers connected with four large brokerage houses on charges of conspiracy to defraud, and issued warrants for the apprehension of three other brokers. The attorney-general asked the board to suspend operations “until the investing public recovers from the unsettling effect which the arrest of the brokers is bound lo have.” Price made know today that thousands of investors on marginal accounts have law court actions as a result of the raids on the houses. “Investors’ stocks, with collateral provided to protect their margin,’ he said, “are being held by the government, and he considered it doubtful whether investors would be able to get their money out right away.”
