Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Jan. 31.—Up at West Point the army officers |eny implied charges of proselyting w the case of a loquacious young gentleman by the name of Kenneth Goff, a back field man of Rhode Island State college. Certain correspondence passed between the player and two individuals, one an assistant team manager, the other an enthusiastic noncombatant with no official connection with the academy. MUM Th team manager used to go t® aehool wl*h Goff In oarllor day* and wrote to Sim deploring that be wa watting bit football fragrance on the deaert air of an obsenre rampuv The noncombatant wrote explaining to the player bow to go abont totting • congressional appointment to the academy. mum . If one were so disposed it would not be difficult to assemble all the circumstances and build up an embarrassing case against the Army. These involved proceedings always stir ud a certain amount of skepticism, and the acaden>lp l)ytgria which they provoked doesn t help to soften the impact. mm■ m ' ’ WELL, what if the Army aid indicate an unusual interest In Young Mr. Goff? Is that any great crime? It still would have been necessary for the player to pass the entrance examinations and having passed, to maintain, a consistently high academic standing before he could tuck a football under his arm and go galloping down the field. hm m • It never seemed to me tba.t'proselyting Was ss grave an offense as subsequent faculty lenlenry, and since the academy Is one institution where the star of the back held and the cheer leader must pass the same grades “or else,”. U Isn't likely that the ptaco offer* any great appeal to youths Whose sole Interest Ilea in touchdowns. mum X think the whole educational atmosphere would be much clearer If the colleges frankly admitted that they are interested in flashy half backs with an earnest interest in the midnight oil Certainly nroselvtling is practiced in one wav or another by practically every college in the country, ana the bigger tne stadium the more Intensive the practice. What makes the picture a bit ludicrous is the attitude of surprise and piety the good doctors and directors adopt whenever anything is printed about it. mum CORNELIUS M’GILLIC UD D Y does not believe in throwing his money away. When he learned that Joe Sewell had been given his unconditional release by Cleveland, McGillicuddy sent him a wire saying: “Don't do anything until you get my letter.” In the meantime five other clubs sent long detailed offers by wire, while the Yankees dispatched a scout from a neighboring point to the player’s home. By the time McGillicuddy’s letter Sewell had mailed his signed contract back to the Yankees. mum From what the boys tell me it is entirely possible that the biggest outdoor show of tSe' Metropolitan summer will not be a prite fight, hut a wrestling match. The shrewd showmanship of Jack Curley has lifted the grunters and groaners to the highest point of interest they have ever enjoyed in the big town. His last two shows in the Garden have been sell-outs with thousands turned away. m m m There is no telling how long the hysteria for the beefy tumblers will last but it ought to last through the summer anyway and you can count on Curley’s genius to come Up with a match that will lure the customers to one of the ball parks In unprecedented numbers. Years ago he filled a Chicago ball park- with Gotcn and Hackenschmtdt. and it looks as if he la set for a repeat.

Pickerd Is Given Hard Bout by Frankie Wine

Fistic fans who “go” for the heavyweights and clamor for vicious glove throwing of the old-fashioned type got their fill at Cadle tabernacle Friday night when Walter Pickerd, local mauler, and Frankie Wine, the Montana blacksmith, hooked up in the ten-round main go of the Washington A. C. charity show. It was a rip-roaring battle, with both men spilling blood as they whaled away with all their power. There wasn’t a wide margin of difference when the final gong sounded, for by that time the adversaries were just about corked out from the strenuous fireworks over the long route. However, an early advantage plus a late lead on points summed up enough margin to give Pickerd the shade during the red hot hostilities. It was a fight that pleased everybody. Wine upset the calculations of the Pickerd followers and was in good shape. His body punching especially was effective and a left hook also carried dynamite. On the other hand. Pickerd tossed a heavy right and also scored often with a left both to face and body. RESULTS OF PRELIMS Lou Vine. Chicago featherweight, outclassed Harrv Forbes, Columbus. O.

This year it was agreed that the award should be bestowed on George Herman Ruth.

Cruising in Sportland WITH EDDIE ASH

A PITCHER bought from the minors as excess baggage in another deal nine years ago is holding out on Brooklyn asking $25,000 to hurl for the Robins in 1931. You guessed it—Dazzy Vance. And on the other hand the player who was the big shot in the purchase from New Orleans nine years back, catcher Hank Deberry, recently was shunted to the Coast League tagged as through in the majors. Deberry and Vance went up together and the late Charles Ebbets, Brooklyn president, was compelled to take Vance in order to get Deberry. The original bid was for Deberry and pitcher Tom Phillips, the latter the star of the New Orleans mound staff at the time, but the Pelicans refused to part with Phillips owing to the fact they were saving him for Cleveland. Dickering and bickering between Brooklyn and New Orleans lasted for some time before the Robins consented to take Deberry with Vance in for good measure. Only SIO,OOO exchanged hands. Phillips went to Cleveland and flopped while Vance found his stride at Brooklyn and developed into one of baseball’s greatest righthanders and is still going strong. mum mum The Dazzler had failed twice in the majors before budding out with Brooklyn and even in the American Association, as a member of the Toledo Hens, he was listed as just a thrower and was relegated to the Southern Association. The New York Yankees and Pittsburgh Pirates tried him out, passed him up and sent the big fellow on his way. Johnny Dobbs, who was New Orleans manager in 1921, confesses he “booted one” in underestimating Vance’s ability, but points out that everybody'else also was fooled, including the Brooklyn officials. It was just another case in which the law of averages worked and the jackpot hit again with all the experts ‘looking out the window.”

THE original “miracle man” of baseball, George Stallings, is dead, but his record with the miraculous Boston Braves of 1914 will occupy a brilliant spot in diamond history forever. Rudolph, Tyler and James remember the names? They pitched the Braves to the pennant after the team had been consigned to last place and went on to pitch world’s series history, defeating the Athletics in four straight battles. a * it Last at the start and last through May, the Braves of 1914 showed signs of coming out of it for several weeks, but were in the hole again on July 15. The spirit of George Stallings, plus the aggressive play of Johnny Evers and Babbit Maranrille, finally got results and the club squeezed into seventh on July 20. a a a THE drive gained power and thereafter the advance to the title was steady, the Beantown pastimers taking fourth place on Aug. 1. First place was captured on Sept. 8, the New York Giants being ousted despite a great • pitching staff, including Mathewson, Tesreau, Marquard and others. Naturally by that time Stallings’ team had the world agog and baseball interest was flaming. a a a During the victorious campaign Dick Rudolph, Lefty Tyler and Bill James carried the Boston mound burden with assistance now and then by the lesser lights of the staff. Rudolph won twenty-seven games and lost ten, James won twentysix and lost seven, and Tyler annexed sixteen and lost fourteen. The three accounted for sixty-nine victories. a a a Connie Mack directed a mighty machine in 1914 and it slaughtered all opposition in the American League. Experts readily handed the Braves cobs of credit for their thrilling pennant fight, but figured the world's series something else and a task too tough for even a miracle team. a a a Rudolph hurled Boston to victory in the series opener, 7 to 1, defeating Chief Bender; James blanked the Athletics in the second battle, I to 0, downing Eddie Plank; Tyler and James operated on the mound in the third tilt, 5 to 4, in twelve innings, defeating Joe Bush. The Athletics were on the ropes by this time, but had Bob Shawkey and Herb Pennock in reserve. However. Dick Rudolph was too good for both Bob and Herb and beat them. 3 to 1. It was over, and marking the first time a world's series had been swept in four games. Convinced that the gun-toting gangsters of Chicago do their shooting at each otjjer and seldom miss, to hit innocent bystanders with wild shots, Vic Frasier, Texas pitcher, has decided to take a. chance and will be with Ownie Bush’s White Sox this year. Last spring this six-footer who weighs 170 or more, developed big city fright and remained at home, pitching independent ball now and then. a a a Frasier starred with Dallas in 1929 and finished with the excellent earned run average of 2.61. winning sixteen games and losing eight. He was used often and worked 191 innings. Several major clubs jumped into the bidding for the righthander. but the Sox had the best connections and gained title to his services. ; Vie will be a welcome addition tq the Pale Hose roster.
