Pavelec, who is supposed to be serving as a punching bag while Max is conditioning himself for the Jack Sharkey bout, landed on Schmeling so hard in the second round of their workout that the champion was stunned momentarily.

Landis Believed Probing Player Shifts Between Cards and Reds

BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Pres* Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. June 9.—Although Judge Kenesaw M. Landis, baseball commissioner, refused to discuss the matter, indications today were that the shuffling of players back and forth between the St. Louis Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds has resulted in an official investigation. Apparently there has been no violation of any baseball law but the numerous deals, involving a dozen players, between the two clubs have been accomplished in such a manner as to make the Cincinnati team look like just another member of the Cardinals’ chain store. Before Judge Landis departed Wednesday for North Carolina to settle a minor league dispute, he was questioned about the CardsReds trades. "Why, everybody knows about those trades,” the judge replied. "The fans of St. Louis don't know about them, judge. They are writing letters to newspapers asking such questions as ‘How much did the Reds pay for Frey and Hendrick?’ ‘Was any cash involved in the Hafey deal?’ ‘Are the Cards

Evidence that baseball men do not want to express an opinion or become involved in the St. LouisCincinnati matter was further established when William L. Veeck, president of the Chicago Cubs, was asked his opinion about the numerous trades. He replied: "I see nothing wrong with the trades. That’s all I have to say.” Samuel Breadon, president of the St. Louis Cardinals laughs off the idea that there has been anything wrong and says “we would welcome an investigation.” St. Louis fans are inclined to believe that Breadon has purchased a minor league franchise—the Columbus American Association club—with his surplus talent, and Chick Hafey, a stubborn holdout whose salary grew too big for the Cards. The Reds have obtained four players jutright Hafey, High,

Roettger and Douthit—and had two other players—Frey and Hendrickreturned to them by the Cardinals. Six Cincinnati players have been shipped to two Cardinal farms, Shevlin, Eckert, Heath and Wysong to Rochester and Bluege and Cullop to Columbus, which club was sold by Sidney Weil, Cincinnati president. to the Cardinals near the close of the 1931 season.
