Talking It Ov£r BY JOE WILLIAMS

Cditor’i Note—Joe Wiliam* is on two work*’ vacation. In hi* absence thi* column will be written by member* of the New York World-Tele* ram sport* staff. BY DANIEL M. DANIEL NEW YORK. Oct. 24.—N0 doubt it. is all for the best that Wilbert Robinson, 69 years of age and conceivably tired of the grief and the bickering that have been part of the Brooklyn job, should retire as manager of the Dodgers and challenge younger hands and maybe nimbler wit to fashion a more lustrous regime. Very likely Max Carey is about as stood a man as the board of drectors. seemingly limited in the scope of Ist search, could have found for the task of rebuilding the fourth-place Flatbush machine. But wasn't it al somewhat precipitous? Wasn't the surrender of those who for years had fought to keep Robbie at his post rather unflattering to their hitherto unwavering choice? These Questions are dictated bv the fact that for seventeen years Robbie was the pilot of the Dodgers. For seventeen years he did the best he could. At times that wasn’t the most satisfactory Job a leader might have turned in with the material and aualnt spirit on hand. But for seventeen summers, with the Dodgers now blowing hot. now blowing cold, your Uncle Robbie was kept at his post. Brooklyn had come to regard him as much a fixture as the Soldiers and Sailors arch in Prospect park. But today the old bov. rusticating and shooting down at Dover Hall, in Georgia,, finds that he is through with Brooklyn and east New York and Brownsville, and free to accept a reported offer from Pittsburgh. ana ROBBIE'S friends have a peculiar feeling about the meeting Friday, at which he was voted out with a resolution of good will, and Carey was inducted into office. They sav that if the directors had decided to give vour Uncle Robbie the air they should have provided him with an out. and advised him quietly to resign. A week later would have been time enough to put the new helmsman at the steering Wheel. But the firing and the hiring all was done at the one session, and the plea was the sudden reception of tenders of trades which reauired immediate action. And Insofar as Robbie is concerned, that's that. He won two pennants and he helped to give to the Dodgers a certain individuality and precocious tone which marked them out even as an elephant is distinguished in a field ow gazelles. This Brooklyn team of the Robinson dvnastv was not noted for adroit brain work, or keen agility, or even bourgeoning power. But still the Dodgers trade mark stood for something apart from anything else, and gave to Brooklyn a position which was recognized even far from the beaten path of major league civilization. Robbie had a flair for rebuilding broken arches, reviving senile arms, reurnishing antiques whch had been cast to the major league junk pile. While he achieved only two pennants, he built his Brooklyn team into a Gianthating combination which oft and anon hung crepe on the Polo Grounds, and made Flatbush fans forget their low position in the standing of clubs. Well, Robbie is out. and Brooklyn has lost a auaint figure even if he wasn’t the greatest manager in the world. At the age o,f 41, Carey, who as Maximilian Carnarius started out. to be a minister, finds himself at, the goal for which he had been striving since 1926. a p b Max once had an idea that he would succeed to the job in Pittsburgh, but this dream was shattered when the Pirates sold him to Brooklyn for the waiver price five years ago. It will be recollected that this action followed an uprising against the official position which Fred Clarke had assumed in the conduct of Pittsburgh strategy. When Carey landed in Flatbush he undoubtedly had visions of succeeding Robbie. This impression gained widespread crculation when in 1928. Robbie made Carey hs first lieutenant. But in 1929 Maximilian was gone—sunk without warning. In 1929 Carey could not get a baseball post in the majors, so he took a vacation. In 1930 he conducted a gas filling station in St. Louis, with semi-professional baseball activity on the side. All the while. Carey kept telling himself that the Brooklyn apple would fall into his lap If only he was there when the apple fell. Late last season he had a talk with some of the directors, and left Flatbush glum. Friday those directors signed Carey for a year, at $25,000, and Carey was Jubilant. Maximilian deserves a hand for a game battle. B n b IRRESPECTIVE of how you feel about Robbie’s passing and Carey’s arrival, there is a source of balm and pleasant consolation in the signing of Maximilian. The cruel battle of Flatbush finally is over. The selection of Carey was by acclamation. His designation was a thing of unanimity. His confirmation was a glorious triumph for peace and harmony. No longer—at least, for a while, anyway ■—will the Ebbets Field council room resound with the harsh phrases of contentious powwow. McKeever is placated. Gilleaifdeau is serene, and Steve and Joe will even say hello to each other. Robbie, whose very appearance was for McKeever the red shawl they flaunt before the bull in the Plaza Del Toro, no longer will disturb the club treasurer’s sleep. Now comes the ,loh of saving the Dodgers from slipping into the second division. As they stand, they can not hope t,o avert the demotion. Trades must be made, and quite a few players have been offered. “There will be changes, but I can not discuss them now,” said the new manager jrs he left for St. Louis to cogitate. He will be back next week, to establish residence in Flatbush. And we'll bet dollars to doughnuts that down at Dover Hall. Robbie is laughing his head off. and kicking his heels like a schoolboy off for a vacation.

New York Mitt Moguls Create ‘DreadnaughC Class for Super-Palookas

BY HENRY M’LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent NEW Y’ORK, Oct. 24.—The New York state athletic commission, of which William Muldoon, the “greatest Roman of them all,” is chairman, today was in undisputed possesssion of the all-time record for muddled thinking and inconsistency. The commissioners, or the “three dumb dukes,'" as they have been aptly called on more than one occasion. clinched both records Friday when they created anew “dreadnaught” heavy class and refused to recognize Tommy Loughran as a fit opponent for Primo Camera,

Since Manual and Shortridge are not scheduled, thee south siders capture the honors held last year by Washington. All other city series teams have been beaten. 4,500 See Battle A crowd of 4,500 watched the southsiders conquer the Tech eleven for the first time since 1922 and they also saw Coach John Mueller’s team score the first touchdown on the Manual eleven this season. The Muellermen led 7 to 6 at half time and continued to hold that margin until only five mfhutes remained to play. The thrilling contest was marred by serious injury to a star Tech lineman, Thomas Taylor, tackle. He was carried from the field and rushed to the Methodist hospital, where his condition was reported as critical. He is reported to have two broken vertebrae and is paralyzed from the shoulders down. Taylor was injured while making a brilliant tackle and nothing appeared unusual about the play until he was unable to get up from the ground. Manual’s team held a decided edge on pass offense, gaining 81 yards to Tech’s 35. It was one of these passes late In the game, Welton to Schowmeyer, that carried the ball from mid-field to the Tech ten-yard line. The south siders unleashed a vicious off tackle attack and Welton finally carried the ball over on fourth down. Injury Turning Point After Tech had held the upper hand in an exchange of punts throughout the first half and continually kept in dangerous territory, the Taylor frijury occurred, and that seemed to be the turning point in Tech’s game. Cowden, Stuart and Welton cut loose with long runs that carried the ball to the eight-yard line, and after the Tech forwards held gallantly for three downs Cowden plunged ov?r on the fourth attempt with two feet to go for the marger. Welton failed to plunged for the extra point. Tech again took the upper hand after that touchdown and a Manual fumble recovered by Tech paved the way for a touchdown, East, Krueger and Purcell all lugging the ball for gains and East carrying the oval over. This tied the score, 6-6, and Purcell plunged over, giving tlv? Tech team the 7-6 edge they held, until late in the game when Manual completed the long pass. After the final Manual touchdown, Crossen plunged over the extra point. Manual gained 216 yards from scrimmage and Tech 172 and registered ten first downs to six for Tech. Manual takes possession for a year of the jcup offered by the Indianapolis school board several years for the tea mthat won it five times. Tech and Shortridge each have won it four times.

Rogers hornsby has come out with kind words for Art Shires and the boss of the Chicago Cubs predicts the talkative firstsacker will make good with the Boston Braves. Color and aggressiveness make a hit with Rogers and Shires is his style of pastimer. The Cub pilot says the reason he failed to buy Arthur from Milwaukee was because the big fellow had been released by the rival Chicago White Sox. a a Shires was a stellar performer with Milwaukee and finished with a swat average of .385. He was rather tame at times, compared with his early experiences with the White Sox, but there’s no getting away from the fact he was a great gate attraction in the American Association. Another thing, Arthur played regularly against both kinds of pitching and hit the lefties just as often as the right handers. an THE major league rule against exhibition games after Oct. 31 has been suspended and big league players will be permitted to perform after that date until Nov. 15, if the contests in which they participate are staged for unemployment relief or charity.

Brouillard Ring Victor Connecticut Youth Captures Welter Title From Jack Thompson. By United Pres* BOSTON. Oct. 24—The world's welterweight championship belonged to Lou Brouillard of Danielson, Conn., today by virtue of his hammer and tong’s victory over Jack Thompson of Chicago in fifteen rounds at Boston Garden Friday night before 18,200 persons. Brouillard snatched the championship from the Chicago Negro in the face of predictions that his youth would be no match for the skilled Thompson. The Connecticut boxer’s ten-round decision victory in July in a non-title contest was discounted because of Thompson's poor condition. Brouillard weighed 146?i and Thompson 146. All but two rounds were awarded to Brouillard. The second was counted even and the fourteenth was won by Thompson on a whirlwind finish that had Brouillard backing into the ropes. Brouillard scored four knockdowns but one of them was gained after a momentary wrestling bout and was not clean-cut. The first two were in the tenth, Lou’s best of many good rounds. Thompson, groggy from a severe pounding, was sent to the canvas by a steady tattoo of blows and remained there for a count of two. He jumped up only to be sent down again and this time he remained for a count of nine. In the thirteenth Thompson sank for a count of seven under a left to the heart. He won the next round but the fifteenth was Brouillard’s.

Late in the first half a bad pass from center sent the oval into the end zone where Dayton fell on it for a safety. Booz had been punting fine and this alone kept the Flyers back away from the Bulldog goal line. Early’.in the second half, Fitzsimmons crashed over right tackle, reversed his field and ran sixty-two yards for a Dayton touchdown. Two more were added in this quarter. Fitzsimmons scored another and the Dayton line blocking a punt and Meyer a tackle, picked it up and ran twelve yards for the third marker.

Just to make sure that its claim to the goofy championship would not be soon challenged, the commission issued an edict that hereafter no boxer may skip a class.

The commission didn’t say, but this ruling looks like a direct slap at Mickey Walker, who jumped the light-heavies for a crack at the heavies.

Some of the best punting shown on Hoosier college gridirons this season, kept the teams running from one end of the field to the other, some of the boots traveling 70 to 80 yards. A recovered fumble gave State its chance. Twenty yards were picked up on running plays, and then Ketcham hurled a perfect pass to Conrad, who ran five yards across the goal line.

In creating the super-palooka class, the commission played dead into the hands of Jimmy Johnston, new head man of Madison Square Garden. When the commission refused to sanction a bout between Paulino Uzcudun and Camera, Johnston tried to sign Camera to meet Campolo. The Italian giant balked. When the super-palooka clas was created, Primo was all but forced to accept a bout with Campolo. And Camera, in case you have forgotten, is owned by the Garden. And what the Garden makes off him comes under the heading of velvet.

Ousted Uncle Robbv J Is Likely to Retire Veteran Manager of Brooklyn Expected to Quit Game He Has Spent His Life In; Carey’s Moves Are Unknown. By United Prexx NEW YORK. Oct. 24.—" Uncle Wilbert" Robinson, most colorful of major league baseball managers, is without an official connection with organized baseball for the first time in forty-fiv** years. Robinson, in organized basebal since 1886. was dismissed late Friday as manager of the Brooklyn Robins witn a “vote of appieciation for his eighteen years of service in that position. Robinson did not attend the stockholders' meeting at which he was voted out of office, and has not announced his future plans. It is believed he will retire from the sport which has been liis career since 1878 when at the age of 12 he organized

a semi-pro team in Hudson, Mass. It is reported that Robinson is under consideration for the vacant managerial post with the Pittsburgh Pirates, but "Uncle Robbie" retired to his estate in Dover Hall, Ga., at the close of the 1931 season and has given no indication of interest in the post. The rotund, good-natured veteran will be succeeded at Brooklyn by Max Carey, former Pittsburgh and Brooklyn outfielder, who was given a one-year contract today as manager of the team. Carey returns to Brooklyn after an absence of two years, the last of which he spent outside the major! league fold. The new Brooklyn manager first broke into the Majors in 1911 with Pittsburgh and re-' mained with that club until 1926 \ when he went to Brooklyn on waivers. Released in 129 He spent only one season as a j player at Brooklyn, but coached under Robinson in 1928. He was released in 1929, served as coach for i the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1930 and during the last year has been running a gasoline station in St. Louis. Robinson's dismissal is the climax of a long dispute between the manager and Judge Steve McKeever, co-owner of the team. McKeever has fought Robinson since the death of the late Charles H. Ebbetts, whom Robinson succeeded as president of the club. Robinson had the support of the Ebbets estate, but was retained as manager in 1930 only under a compromise agreement whereby he accepted a two-year contract as manager and relinquished the presidency of the club to Frank York, who was aligned with McKeever. “Uncle Robby’’ strengthened his position in 1930 by keeping Brooklyn in the thick of the penannt fight, but the club’s disappointing failure in 1931 spellled his doom. Brooklyn, a strong favorite for pennant honors, never was in the race and Robinson was forced to bear the criticism. Not Particularly Successful Robinson, although regarded as one of the best strategists and developers of pitching talent in the major leagues, was not particularly successful £.t Brooklyn. He won pennants in 1916 and 1920. but finished in first division on only four other occasions, with a second in 1924, third in 1915 and fourth in 1930 and 1931. The club finished fifth four times, sixth seven times and seventh once, but no Robinson-managed team ever has finished last. Prior to joining Brooklyn as manager in 1914, Robinson sreved as coach of the New York Giants for three years under John McGraw, with whom he played as a member of the Old Baltimore Orioles. During his playing career, Robinson was a catcher and despite his bulk was a noted base stealer. He was rated a powerful hitter, and fine receiver, and still holds the major league record of being the only plyaer who ever made seven hits in one game.
