By Eddie Ash Distress Signs Are on Display in A. A. a a a Sunny .Jim Wants More Coin at Cincy a a a Crowder Turns in Brilliant Record

JT'S a long hard winter for Thomas J. Hickey, president of the American Association, and his magnates. The big minor league of the midwest has been taken for a ride by the International League and tossed for a row of broken “gentleman’s agreements.” In other words, A. A. prestige is threatened. There was no gentlemen's agreement on salary and player limits between the A. A and Pacific Coast League, but the A. A. tried to coax the far westerners to come through and follow the lead in curtailing operating exponses by chopping the pay rolls and reducing the size of squads. The Coast Leaguers turnod a deaf ear. The International, however, led the American Association to beliove the two Class AA circuits would get along like sweethearts. The Association, therefore, adopted a salary limit per club of $6,500 a month and cut the player limit to eighteen. The moaning of the athletes was loud and long. The International delayed its official meeting until after the Association had gone on record with its wholesale depression program. Thereupon the “Int” loop double crossed their middle western cousins and boosted the player limit to nineteen and the salary limit to $8,500. Now the American Association is the only Class AA circuit working under the policies discussed at the great baseball depression meeting at Columbus last month. If the A. A. goes through with its reductions there may be some trouble encountered when the major league clubs start unloading surplus talent. The boys may prefer to go to the International or Coast circuits. The A. A. owners are convinced the Coast magnates are bluffing and wont pay high salaries, but the action of the International League *“ giving the Hickey circuit the weeps. This new problem, on top of the Toledo and Kansas City situations, where the clubs are on the financial rocks, has the owners in a daze. If something doesn't happen shortly, the A. A. may be compelled to operate with only six clubs during the 1933 campaign. Proxy Hickey has run up the distress signal and is keeping it aloft. BUB B B B MEET THE FIRST HOLDOUT, MR. J. BOTTOMLEY A CCORDING to chatter being passed around in big league circles, Sunny Jim Bottomley has given a sour response to the contract offered him by the Cincinnati Reds and the major experts have nominated James No. 1 man in the holdout brigade that is expected to form rapidly within jhe next few weeks. It is said Bottomley received $17,000 with the St. Louis Cardinals last year and following his transfer to the Reds he paid a visit with Sidney Weil, Cincy president, and was asked to accept $12,000. It is said Jim is angling for more dough. His case is not expected to be difficult to straighten out, however. Manager. Bush of the Reds announced on Thursday the probable lineup of his team on opening day. It follows, with changes likely if deals are made: Bottomley, lb; Morrissey, 2b; Bluege, 3b; Durocher. ss; Hafey, If; Moore, cf; Roettger, rs; Lombardi, c; Lucas, p. Bush didn’t name that battery; it's the guess of Cincy fans. Otto Bluege. up from Columbus, will be given a thorough trial at third, but just at present there’s nothing sure about his ability to solve big league pitching He's a whiz in the field and owns a strong arm. If Otto fails to hit, Morrissey will be used at third and Grantham assigned to second. High, Blair, Gilbert and Shevlin are other infielders. Other outfielders are Douthit and Plummer, and other catchers are Hemsley, Asby and Manion. Batterymen will leave for the Tampa training camp on March 1, and other players will depart on March 9. Manager Bush will precede the pitchers and catchers to Florida by a couple of weeks. He has labeled pis early trip a vacation, but his friends can not figure out what, made him tired. Evidently Ownie plans to build up anew supply of fish stories. Cincy officials expect the advance sale of tickets for opening day to reach 18.000 by the end of January. Pittsburgh will open in the Queen City, April 12. GENERAi/tHRIVED DURING 1932 SEASON. Hr HE season of 1932 was a great one for General Alvin Crowder, Wash- ■*- ington veteran righthanded pitcher. He won more games than any other hurler in Hie majors, twenty-six, and went undefeated after Aug. 1, winning his last fifteen straight. His age is 32. Crowder worked 327 innings for the Senators and turned in a brilliant record for control, dealing out only 77 walks. He was fourth in earned-run efficiency in the American League with a mark of 3.33 per nine innings, being topped by Lefty Grove, Red Ruffing and Ted Lyons. Defeats against him numbered thirteen. The General took part in 50 games, pitched three shutouts, one two-hit game, two three-hitters and one four-hitter. He started in 39 games, was removed 18 times, pitched 21 complete games, finished 10 games as relief hurler and was removed once after relieving another hurler. Crowder hit no batsmen, made no wild pitches and struck out 103. B B B B B B WHEN Brooklyn purchased Ike Boone, outfielder, from the San Francisco Missions a few years ago. lie was bought for slugging purposes only. He batted .447 in the Coast League, but his reputation as an outfielder was all bad. Ike is a heavyweight and slow. However, the very first chance in his territory after joining the Dodgers was a tough one and he surprised his mates by making a daring catch that took him off of his feet and sent him sprawling over a low wire fence. B B B BBS Two no-hit games were pitched in the American Association in 1932 and it was the sorry luck for Lou Fette, Kansas City hurler. to be the victim of both feats. Slim Harriss of St. Paul blanked the Blues without a bingle on Many 13. and Paul Dean of Columbus duplicated the stunt in a night game on Aug. 30. B B B B B B Shanty Hogan, catcher sold to the Braves by the Giants, met up with his new manager, Bill McKechnie. in Boston the other day and was advised to take up gym work and go on a diet. Hogan is fifteen pounds overweight, tipping the scales at 240. He weighed 260 last spring when he reported for training with New York. B B B B B B Bob Brown, young Boston Bravos sensational righthander, struck out ten pinch hitters last year. That's the old courage in the clutch. a a an n a Chicago writers are back-tracking on Babe Herman. They used to crack wise about his outfielding. Now he belongs to the ; Cubs and 1932 statistics gave him a better record than was posted 'by Ki Ki Cuyler of the Bruins, rated the last word in fly chasing skill.

Ray Mangruin Retains Lead in Caliente Open By United Press AGUA CALIENTE. Mcx., Jan. 13.—Ray Mangrum. young Texas professional. clung to a two-stroke lead when the $7,500 Agua Caliente open golf championship swung into the semi-final round today. The Waco 22-year-old stroked par on even terms Thursday to maintain his edge over the field, established in the opening round when he buffeted a high wind to card a brliliant 69. Mangrum’s 72 gave him a score of 141.

Paul Runyon, young Westchester (N. Y.) hireling, hopped into second place by shooting the most brilliant game of the day to match Mangrum’s starting round of 69. This added to a 74 gave him a 143. Faltering after an opening round of 70, Archie Hambrick, Zanesville, 0., took a 74 Thursday and dropped from second to third place with a 144. Staging an uphill fight to overtake the youthful pace-setters, the field of veterans, led by Craig Wood and Leo Diegel, recovered their skill Thursday to undershoot par but still remained five .strokes out of first place. Wood carded a 71 along with Tony Manero while Diegel, the pro, shot a 70. The scores, giving the trio a 146, bracketed them in fourth place. Horton Smith dropped from third to fifth place when he "blew up,” taking a 76. His score of 147 was matched by Olin Dutra, Abe and A1 Espinosa and John Perelli. Fred Morrison, defending champion, was far down the list in the 151 score class.

The entry fee for all classes is $5 in the team event, $2 in the doubles and $1 singles, bowling extra. Co-operation on the part of the alley owners this year should make the city meet one of the largest ever held. The Pritchett Recreation Company will pay one-half of the team entry fee for all teams that roll on these drives in different leagues, which should be an inducement for an entry of 100 per cent from this house. The Uptowns. Parkway and Fountain Square alleys are also agreeing to pay one-half of the team entry for teams from these houses. Bowlers and bowling fans should have a busy week-end if they try to take in the various events that are carded for the local drives. Saturday and Sunday the Illinois alleys will stage a head pin tournament for both men and women and in addition to cash awards there will be a flock of merchandise prizes for beth events. Entry fee for this meet will be $1 in the men s play and 75c for the women. At the Central alleys a 210-scratch singles event will feature.

Saturday night the Pritchett Recreation should be packed to the rafters if all who have expressed their interest in the Mmeralite vs. Barbasol teams should attend this feature match of the season. While the visiting team enrolls a flock of nationally known stars, the match is an even one from every angle as the Barbasol quintet is capable of rolling any team in the country without being termed a setup. The fifth series of the Capitol City Treveiing League will be rolled on the Hotel Antlers alleys Sunday afternoon at 2 30. Some of the stars rolling in this loop who have been below par to date are due to break loose with some real totals. Don Johnson has been setting a terrific pace, having an average of 217 pins a game, far ahead of the field. The Barbasol team has also been going along in great style due to Johnson's bowling and have finished on top each week for a total of thirty-two points to lead by a safe margin.

Miller had visions of rolling on his team when he had 409 in two games and four strikes in a row to start his third in the St. Philip No. 2 League, but something went havwire at this stage and a 565 total on this kind of start convinced him he was only a duffer in the pin spilling game.

ONE of the best cage teams to wear the blue and white of Shortridge in many seasons—that's Kenny Peterman’s current edition of the Blue Devils. In eight games, the lanky Shortridge five has copped five decisions, with Greenwood, Seymour, Greenfield, Alexandria and Jeff of Lafayette as the victims.
