By Eddie Ash BILL TERRY SEES THREE GROUPS m m m I N. Y. PILOT SIZES UP NATIONAL
r pHE collapse of the New York Giants in September last year cured Manager Bill Terry of counting the pennant won before the race was over, and the leader of the 1933 baseball champs is making conservative predictions this winter as the start of another National League campaign draws near. He refuses to lay claim to the 1935 flag, but declares his Giants could not possibly finish out of the money. Bill’s size-up of the strength of the league will not tickle followers of the Chicago Cubs. Terry thinks the Cardinals. Giants and Pirates will fight it out foi the pennant. In a second group he piacp* the Cubs. Dodgers and Braves, then follows with Phillies and Reds. He remarked: 'And I am aware of the class of the Cardinals and the importance of their world series victory when I predict a bitter scrap among St. Louis, New York and Pittsburgh.”
a a a Seen Pirates Improved TERRY will arrive in Miami Beach on Feb. 19 to prepare for the invasion of hi- club for spring training. Batterymen will report on Feb 25 “There will be two drills a day.” Bill announced, “morning and afternoon. Perhaps that, program mill discourage some of the boys from making two many social engagements. Anyway. I like to know where the players are in the afternoon. The morning session will be hard, the afternoon light.” Returning to the discussion of the “strength of the league, ** the Giants* chieftain said: **l believe the Pirates got more out of their deal with Chicago than did the Cubs. You see. left-handed pitchers rarely do well at Wrigley Field, and that makes the value of Larry French to the Cubs somewhat doubtful. Tex Carleton should do well on the Chicago field, as he Is a right-hander with a sidearm delivery. That type of pitching, coming out of the bleachers, is tough. "Brooklyn may manage to edge Into the first division, but the fact remains that the club has v>ot been improved. That goes for the Braves, too. Men on that c.ub have been together too long. m m m Golden Gloves Bargain OFFICIALS of The Times-Legion Golden Gloves tourney estimate about 25 bouts next Friday night when the 1935 amateur fistic classic will be brought to a close in this district. The young knuckledusters had a vacation this week on account of a previous lease of the Armory to the table tennis players. The advance sale of tickets for next Friday's show is encouraging and is the best advance since the Golden Gloves event was made an annual affair here. Reserved seats are $1 and general admission is 50 cents. Figure it out, 4 cents a bout reserved. 2 cents a bout unreserved. It s a bargain The first row in the balcony will be reserved this week and this addition will bring total reserved seats to about 700. Watch for a sell-out. However, there will be plenty of general admission seats both downstairs and upstairs. By plenty we mean about 2500. so take a tip and get there early the night of Feb. 15. There is a certain warm appeal attached to Golden Gloves boxing shows that is not felt at professional events. The customers take a personal interest In the young gladiators and graciously cheer the loser as well as the winner Reserved seats are on sale at the j Haag Claypool drug store and Lemcke Service Shop, 108 E. Mar-ket-st. mam Vernon in Left Field VERNON WASHINGTON, the Indianapolis right fielder and top slugger of 1934. is going to be stationed in left field by Manager Jimmy Dykes of the Chicago White Sox Jimmy wants to use A1 Simmons. his star, in center, and R" r Radcliff, up from Louisville, i right. Dykes figures to bolster his defense with Simmons in center plus the acquisition of Luke Sewell back of the plate. All baseball clubs aim to assemble its best defensive bets thiough the middle of the diamond, catch to center field. The Sox pilot believes Appling at short and Hayes at second will be improved players this year. They form a swift keystone pair, but both mere out with injuries much of the time last season. Extra Sox fly chasers will be Mule Haas. Jocko Conlon and Young Ha fey. a nephew of the veteran Chick Haley of the Cincy Reds. Left field mill be new territory to

Vernon Washington and many Indianapolis fans hesitate to pass an opinion on his ability to handle that bu r ,y pasture. Vernon’s strength is slugging and throwing. mam Dizzy Sides With Will WILL ROGERS, the comedian, has started a 1934 world series argument all over again. It involves the throw from the outfield on the play at third base when Joe Medwick and Marvin Owen I tangled up in the seventh game. Rogers insists the ball never reached Owen: that it was “cut off” by Shortstop Rogell of the Tigers. This was the spiking incident that brought on a fruit shower from the Detroit bleachers and caused Judge Landis to banish Medwick. Frankie Frisch. Cardinal manager, declares Outfielder Jo Jo White of the Tigers threw the sphere to third and that Rogell did not figure in the play. Dizzy Dean supports Will Rogers and says Rogell cut it off. Big league baseball writers who mere there back up Frisch. And so it goes. Maybe Owen and Rogell will iron out the controversy. The subject came up at a sports writers banquet in New York and was ••sprung" on Frisch by Will Rogers. Rogers and Dean form a tough pair to domm in any Kind cf an argument. Yaw key Says Sox Lineup Is Intact Boston Owner Calls Halt to Buying Spree. By United Press NEW YORK, Feb. 9—Tom Yawkey has arranged his Boston Red Sox lineup for next season, snapped a rubber band around one of the biggest bank rolls In baseball, and will stand pat. The owner of the club which many are predicting will be in the thick of the American League pennant race, said today he will depend henceforth on his “chain gang” of smaller clubs to supply new talent. If it comes to a pinch, and seasoned major leaguers are required on a moment’s notice, he might do a bit of trading, but no more buying. He has invested nearly $3,000,000 in baseball already, building up what he believes will be the pennant winner, if not next season, a season or so hence. "We've got a club now' we figure will go places. It has cost plenty, but I do not regret a penny I've spent. It is a business and a pleasure with me and I Expect to get cash dividends along with the enjoyment of running a successful major league team," he said. U. S. C.

Fighter Shows Symptoms of Being ‘Doped’ Young Joe Firpo Collapses 15 Minutes Before Bout With Sagilio. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY j United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Feb. 9.—Young Joe ! Firpo, Philadelphia lightweight, I was in St. Anthony hospital today | and the Illinois State Athletic ■ Commission was investigating the cause of a mysterious iljness which last night prevented him from meeting Frankie Sagilio, hard-hit-ting Chicago contender, in a 10round bout at Cicero Stadium. Firpo became ill 15 minutes before time for him to enter the ring. He took a sip of water, according to his manager and brother-in-law, Nick D'Amato, and shortly afterward became ill. He appeared groggy, and was unable to maintain his balance. Later he sobbed and talked incoherently. When taken to the hospital an hour later he still was mentally foggy, and in no condition to fight. Chemical Analysis Ordered Joe Triner, chairman of the Illinois Commission, ordered the contents of the fighter’s stomach removed for a chemical analysis which was to be completed today. “We intend to make a thorough investigation of the whole matter,” Triner said, “blit I do not want to make any other statement until we get a full medical report on his examination. An interne who examined Firpo said the fighter apparently was “doped.” He said Firpo had all the appearances of having taken sodium amidol, but that he would have had to taken more than a sip of water to reach the condition he was in an hour after the symptoms of illness developed. Promoter Billy Cepak. was “at a loss” to understand Firpo's condition and promised the 3500 fans who attended that he would stage the match at a later date, allowing each fan to be admitted on his stub. The fans accepted the postponement calmly. No Betting at Ringside The hint in some quarters that gamblers attempted to fix the bout hardly seemed to stand up, in as much as It was apparent that there was no betting at the ringside. “There wasn’t a quarter bet around the ring,” said one Chicago bookmaker who was in the first row. Sagilio has had a phenomenal rise to the top in the last year and a half, and is on the verge of developing into a contender for Barney Ross’ lightweight title. He has lost only one bout, a close 10-round decision to Davey Day, Ross’ stablemate. Firpo has been fighting since 1931, and always has had a reputation as an honest, willing fighter. The record books show he has had 41 bouts up to this year, winning 16, losing 20, engaging in four draws, and being knocked out only once.
