By Eddie Ash K '*** 1 1 Choice Toledo Bait Fails to Tempt Feats of Famous ‘Spoke’ Are Recalled Jm Sport Notes Picked Ip Here and There

men long in the service of baseball and experienced in league club and business angles, are puzzled over the actions of Clarence (Pants) Rowland in his reported moves to obtain control of the defunct Toledo A. A. Hens. The guess now is that he was bluffing. Anyway, Clarence announced he was through negotiating, and this after the Toledo club receiver, A1 Reuben, apparently had met all demands. Reuben is perplexed to say the least. Again, maybe, the so-called firm of “Rowland, Brennan & Krueger" was a partnership in name only —nobdy having and "scratch.” Thai was the opinion expressed in Indianapolis and it was no surprise locally when word arrived that the poor old Hen ball club was an orphan again. Ai Reuben, receiver, explained his dealings with Rowland as follows: "Originally I asked Rowland to put up a bond of $25,000 as assurance he would be able to carry on thiough the season, but we lowered that to $12,500 provided the buyer could satisfy us he would be in a position to raise that much more if it was necessary. We asked this guarantee in order that there would be no danger of having the Mud Hens back in our lap in the middle of the season. “We also reached an agreement with Rowland over an option on the park. He wanted the option to run five years. We thought it should be much less. Later he seemed to be satisfied wth our three-year plan. He could buy the real estate at any time between this date and 1936. “The rental for Swayne field this year we set at $4,400, which would pay the taxes and insurance on the property. After this season the rental would be 6 per cent of the $115,000 bond issue plus taxes and insurance. This would amount to $11,300. “Rowland or any other rentor will be given a five-year lease on these terms with an option for renewal for an additional five years. We further will take over five players and six optional men from the Cleveland club and cancel its debt of $15,000 for Bill Knickerbocker, shortstop. The Cleveland people will then pay us $5,000 remaining for their rental ol Swayne field last season. . “We will turn over the players to the new owner and will give him the season to repay the Toledo club.” The above agreement sounds sugary to any purchaser with a desire to own a Class AA ball club. The load hardly could be made any easier. bob a o a VETERAN ADDS ‘COLOR’ TO K. C. TEAM TRIS SPEAKER, the old “Gray Eagle," at the half-century mark, climbs back onto the baseball band wagon as manager of the Kansas City Blues. He has become associated with Lee Keyser, new prexy of the Kawtown team, who organized a syndicate and purchased the franchise. It is said Joe E. Brown, film comedian, helped finance Speaker’s “end." _ , . ~ Another member of the new K. C. directorate is Bill Rodgers, better known in baseball as "Raw Meat,’’ on account of his appetite for uncooked Steaks. Rodgers has been manager at Des Moines for two years, and, like Keyser, is widely known in the minor leagues. You haven't heard much of Speaker in recent years—and yet he is one of baseballs immortals and greatest ball hawks who stood them on their feet and made them hov l in his heyday. The fielding qualities of “Spoke," as the boys knew him, and Ty Cobb, are usually a subject for a hot argument whenever the fans commence discussion of baseball greats. Speaker spent more than twenty years in the majors and the players all knew and feared his skill in the outfield and his throwing arm all the way through his career with the Boston Red Sox and the j Cleveland Indians. Spoke was a great thrower. His eye for the plate from the garden j was so uncanny that it once caused Ownie Bush to remark, “He throws j strikes from the outfield!" And many’s the runner the fleet Speaker , threw' out at home. ! During his tenure as manager at Cleveland Tris had a couple of highly successful seasons, bringing a world series flag to the Forest City in 1920, and finishing in the first division a few times. But there came a dark day in his life. Just after Speaker resigned as manager of Cleveland, in 1926, came charges that he and Ty Cobb were inplicated in a frame-up game between Cleveland and Detroit in 1919. That charge broke the heart of Tris. Although exonerated by Judge Landis, Spoke never got over the blow. He caught on with Washington and Connie Mack's Athletics after that, but didn't stay long. He w'ent to the minors and managed Newark in the International League for a while. Then he drifted out of baseball. Recently, the veteran caught the diamond fever again and evidently is determined to die with his boots on. He is sure to become a fan favorite around the American association if he gets the Blues back on their feet. a a a a b b United States Golf Association and Professional Golfers Association oppose the use of eight-inch cups on the links. Perhaps the officials decided enlarging the cups might have a tendency for the paunchy golfers to enlarge their flapping knickers and obstruct all view of the course and increase the hazards. a a a bob BACKING the jockey rather than the horse, a race track practice that grew' popular among bettors at New Orleans this winter when Gilbert and Mills were running a hot race for riding laurels, has spread to other tracks. The jockey gets the credit if he wins, and if he loses the horse is blamed. A lot of baseball fans follow the same system—they bet on the pitcher rather than the team. B B B B B B When somebody described Bill Terry, new' manager of the New' York Giants, as Big Barter and Bargain Man. following his many player deals, another party was unkind enough to say. "Yes, sure. Bill does the bartering and the other fellow gets the bargains.” 8 B B B B B C GEORGE GODFREY, the huge Philadelphia Negro pugilist, who spent J several days in Indianapolis before outslapping and outpushing Tiger Jack Fox in the Armory ring last Tuesday, evidently found some congenial companions here. Gawge W'ants to come back for another visit in the role of a wrestler, and challenges all Hoosier pachyderms. Godfrey weighs 257 and has taken several flings in the grunting game. It would 0e difficult to obtain a hold on Gaw'ge. He's built like a roundhouse.

ing session of their nontitle scheduled ten rounder. Although Canzoneri was a 6 to 1 ringside favorite, the quick finish was disappointing. Townsend, reputedly a bone-crushing puncher, was supposed to furnish the acid test for Canzoneri’s drive toward Jackie Fields’ welter crown. The fans anticipated something savage. But all they saw was a flurry of paralyzing punches. The fighters sparred for a few seconds. Tony stepped in with a lightning right jolt to the mouth that brought blood. Townsend crouched to cover. Tony rushed him with right and left hooks to the head. A smashing right to the temple and Billy was on the floor, out cold.
