SPRING TRAINING IS NEAR

Baseball Clubs Go South in Luxurious Comfort in Keen Contrast to Teams of Old Plenty of Cash Needed for Conditioning Trips Through South Now, but Things Were Different in Years When Cap Anson Raised Ballyhoo. BY DANIEL M. DANIEL Time* Special Writer NEW YORK. Jan. 13.—At this time of the year, when snow flies, sleet slaps you in the face and Boreas gets in his dirty work, you are bound to read considerable about a baseball institution which is known as spring training. Most of this activity is crammed into a season which hardly is spring. At least, it isn’t spring around Broadway and 42d-st and Seacaucus, N. J. And after thirty or more exhibition games, a multiplicity of one-day stands and a plethora of southern dainties prepared by hardy descendants of the ancient warriors of Athens and Sparta the players will deny stoutly that it is training. Rather do they regard it as a modem Thermopylae.

Still spring training does smack of spring, and it does achieve a certain amount of training. It must be regarded as one of the most beneficent practices baseball has developed since Abner Doubleday invented the game back in 1839. Those who complain about it the loudest in April are the most eager watchers of the calendar in January and February. If Cap Anson presents no other claim to a niche in the baseball hall of fame which is to be established at Cooperstown, N. Y„ he deserves it as the originator of spring training. While diamond history tells us of Anson only as a heavy hitter, first baseman and manager of the Chicago club, he was the greatest showman of baseball history. Many of the ideas which John J. McGraw used with the Giants originated in the nimble noggin of the immortal Anson, when Mac was only a fresh, pugnosed kid selling magazines and candy on the Erie. Fantastic uniforms, Navajo blanket bath robes of dazzling hues, dark blue Dutch bloomers in one series and skin-tight pants in another, all complimented Anson’s showmanship. One summer his White Stockings actually played in dress suits, shedding the spike tails when the game got under way. Yes, Cap was a grand student of the theater as applied to baseball. So he invented spring training. tt tt tt rrvHERE have been many claimants to the distinction of having originated this seemingly simple and natural stunt of going away for baseball training. Some baseball historians credit the invention to Ned Hanlon, who took the famous Baltimore Orioles to Macon, Ga., in 1896. Among the voyagers were McGraw, Hughey Jennings, Willie Keeler and Kid Gleason. Mac learned a lot from Hanlon, who. by the way, still is hale and hearty, down :n Baltimore. But it wasn’t Hanlon who first got the notion of spring training, though he was the first major league manager to take a club into the real south. In 1885 Anson’s club won the pennant. The boys went home loaded with honors—some of them maybe a trifle too complacent. When Cap gathered a corps of his athletes about him in February, 1886, he was astonished at the evidence of copious beev consumption displayed by his leading exponents. ‘"This won’t do,” Anson announced. “You men will have to go down to Hot Springs and take the baths. I simply could not open the season with a club in your disgraceful shape. A1 Spalding would murder me.” And so it came about that the Chicago club of 1886, eleven strong, with the late Billy Sunday the only member who did not need the drastic cure, went to the Arkansas spa —and spring training took its place as a grand baseball institution. a a tt IN the old days, when ball clubs housed their players in secondrate boarding joints, good hotels declined their custom, squads were compact and trips short, spring training involved comparatively little expense. Now it means anything from $20,000 to $40,000. It is likely the Cubs, who will start their preparation this year with 10 days at Catalina Island, in the Pacific, and eventually work over to Miami Beach, on the Atlantic, will spend as much as $50,000 on their training. Os course, a lot of that money comes back. But while McGraw’s old Giants invariably showed a profit on their

training seasons, the modern club usually winds up with a loss. The Yankees got into the pleasant habit of clearing a small fortune on each spring trip during the heyday of Babe Ruth. In 1928, after the Bam had set his amazing record of 60 homers. Miller Huggins took the Ruth circus in New York by way of Texas and Oklahoma. The Yankees played to 128,000 persons that spring and made $60,000 profit. But those days are gone. Perhaps they will return. tt tt u M’GRAW saw' spring training run its gamut, from mediocre boarding houses in Macon, w'ith the players going the three miles to the ball park by foot or on bicycles, to opulent hotels in Florida, limousines, special trains and specially prepared dinners.

Feminine Bowlers Await Annual City Tournament Event at Pritchett’s Alleys Jan. 25-26, Feb. 1-2, Expected to Attract Record Entry in All Classes.

BY BERNARD HARMON FEMININE pastimers of the city are looking forward to the seventeenth annual tournament of the Indianapolis Women’s Bowling Association, scheduled at the Pritchett Alleys Jan. 25, 26 and Feb. 1, 2. In the past the tournament has been rolled in Class A, B and C, being divided by individual averages only. The coming event, for the first time, will be divided by team averages as well as individual averages in an endeavor to make a place for the participant just above the dividing line of the classes. Gold medals are to be awarded winners of each event of Class A; silver medals to the winners of Class B and bronze to winners of Class C. For the first time in the history of the tourney, entrants are to compete in the singles and doubles event in Class C. Entry fee is $8.75 per team and $1.75 per person in the singels and doubles, bowling charges included. The deadline for entries has been set at midnight Jan. 18. Lucy Court is president of the organization and Annetta Crane, secretary. Information regarding the tourney may be obtained from either of these officers. Mrs. Court may be reached at Humboldt 2857 and Mrs. Crane at Drexel 6287-M. u U tt ALTHOUGH last week’s league pastiming started off with a bang as a trio of 700s were posted on Monday night, the usual amount of high pinnage was lacking by the time the Friday night kegelers had completed their schedules. Failure of the fast Indianapolis and Fountain Square Recreation loops to produce their usual array of fancy series made quite a difference in the summary of the week's doings. The circuits, however, furnished two of the 3000pin team totals of the week, Cook’s Gold Blume having the top series, a 3078, in the Fountain circuit and the L. S. Ayres aggregation a 3003 in the Indianapolis. A 3047 from Rolles Printing Cos. of the St. Philip No. 1 League rounded out the list of 3000 shooters. Jess Pritchett Sr's. 720, one of the trio of big totals of Monday night, topped the solo performances of the week. He had games of 246, 208 and 266 in the Optimist League. Walt Heckman, in his Indianapolis Star appearance, nabbed runnerup honors on a 710 and Dan Abbott took the show position with 706 in the South Side Business Men’s loop. Heckman had games of 245. 212 and 255 and Abbott 254, 194 and 258. Carl Mindach was in a striking •mood in the Diamond Chain gathering on Thuvsday night, halting right on the 700 mark with games of 237, 237 and 226. M M M Youth hod its flint >t high scores as the week progressed. Jim Perry, Johnny Kiesel and Herman Morgan Jr. being outstanding. Perry, who is in his second season of league competition garnced a fi!>4 in the Parkway Recreation League No. 2. Kiesel, who a couple of years ago was a pin-setter at the St. Philip Alleys assembled two hefty totals during the five days, a 692 in the St. Philip No. 1 and 655 in the Printcraft. Young Morgan, bowling his initial year in league circles tacked up a 675 in the Bankers League on Friday night. Other outstanding performers of the week were: Phil Bisesi 'Fountain Square Merchants), 690; Ilerb Lawrenx (Commercial), 676; Bob Kelley (Washington), 665; Bob Wuenseh (Washington),. 66t; John Fehr (Fountain Square Rec.), 663; Frank Ralko (K. of C.), 662: Jack Hunt (Motor Speedway), 660; Fred Appel (Insurance), 660; Bill Brunot (Indianapolis), 669: Francis Raftery (Big Four), 655; John Bowman (Presto-Lite), 654; Walt Henderson (St. Philip No. 1). 654; Harry Fox (Optical), 632; Harry Whittemore (Kiwanis), 631; Harry Wheeler (Industrial), 660 and John Blue (Indianapolis), 650. .. mam If you don’t believe bowling is going over in a big way in th smaller cities throughout the state, drop in at the new establishment recently installed in Crawfordsville. The four alleys at this plant are humming with activity day and night and all Crawfordsville, both men and women, seems to hare become bowl-ing-minded. mam A doublet tournament, that would bring togett >r ten pairs of outstanding kegelei i of tho city, it scheduled at the Parkway Alleys Sunday evening Jan. 5:6. Five games are to be rolled and the event will be a scratch affair. Dan Abbott it in charge. m a *

Hines, virtually an unknown to Western golfdom until two weeks ago, when he bagged the S3OOO Riverside, Cal., open, had to fight off a bad case of nerves as wall as the challenge of Henry Picard of Hershey, Pa., before he won yesterday. Begins to Waver Starting his last 18 holes with an aggregate of 206, three strokes ahead of Picard, Hines continued his parbreaking golf until the fifteenth hole,' then he began to waver. Only the fact that Picard also blew up on his last few holes kept Hines from losing his lead as he finished with a 280 and collected SISOO. Picard finished with a 284, tied with Jimmy Thomson of Ridgewood, N. J., for second place. Picard and Hines had been tied at 137 each at the end of the first two rounds, but Picard fell three strokes behind at the end of the third round, when he shot a 72, which he followed in the final round with a 74, five over par. Foiwth Is Shared Vic Ghezzi of Deal, N. J., defending champ, took a 78 and got a tie with Mark Fry of Alameda, Cal., with 285 for fourth-place money.

RASKOB PROTESTS INCOME TAX CASE Charges Roosevelt Is Playing Politics in Action. By United rrrss WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.—President Roosevelt is charged today with playing politics at the expense of his political opponents’ income tax returns. Former Chairman John J. Raskob of the Democratic National Committee raised the issue in protest against Treasury action in seeking additional 1929 income tax from Pierre S. du Pont. Mr. Raskob said the Treasury action illustrated the tyranny which could be inflicted by an “Administration hostile to a citizen honestly opposing its socialistic policies.” “This attack on Mr. du Pont,” the Raskob statement continued, “is quite welltimed with respect to the dinner of the American LibertyLeague to be given in Washington and strongly emphasizes the need of a work such as the league is undertaking if our citizens hope to avoid losing our constitutional form of government and instead having substituted a government of innumerable alphabetical bureaus to dictate the conduct of the daily lives of each and every one of us.” Mr. Raskob said he and du Pont had sold securities to each other “for the purpose of definitely establishing losses in the only way such losses could be established under the law. The transactions were not questioned until now—more than six years after their consumation,” he said. The Treasury contended the sales were “fictitious” because the stocks involved subsequently were repurchased by the sellers. CHURCH POLL SHOWS OPPOSITION TO WAR Nirtety-Six Ter Cent Would Refuse U.
