By dd 1e I DIZZY DEAN DEAL STILL OPEN

WINTER RACING ON IN FLORIDA

ASEBALL sharps in the big leagues say the Dizzy Dean ™" trade still hangs fire. , . . And that President Benswanger of the Pirates wants assurance that if he does give up for OM Diz, the pitcher will not demand a fortune and hold out on him. ;. . Dean has intimated he will be “satisfied” with a contract calling for $40,000. . . . Burleigh Grimes is . beginning to convince Brooklyn fans that he will do all right as a successor to the popular Casey Stengel. . . . He pitched * for the Dodgers nine years and is entitled to a fair shake on _ a tough job. ' They're off at Tropical Park, Florida today. « + « Rube ~ Marquard, Indianapolis’ $11,000 pitcher in 1908, is a mutuels elerk there. . . . And looking fit and young. ... The wry-netk left-hander has guarded his health. . . . Two thousand appli‘cations were on file at Tropical for the 175 mutuel positions available. . . . Clubhouse Annie Oakleys won't be in much demand. . . . The race track officials attached a $1.50 tax and service charge. sn, ACK DEMPSEY'’S place at Miami Beach is nearing comple- " tion and may eventually prove the meeting place of the ‘Florida winter turf crowd and other sun chasers. . . . The Milwaukee Brewers have pirchased Mickey Heath from Montreal and the former Indianapolis first. sacker is expected to rattle the short fences at Borchert Field. . .. Heath is a good spring hitter, but usually loses his batting eye in

midseason and falls down when runners are on the sacks. ” EJ ” s s a

RNOLD HEBER, one of the standouts of the Green Bay Packers, new professional football champions, was an “unknown” in college, and is a native of Green ‘Bay. ... He was developed by Coach Curley Lambeau of the Packers. . . « Heber is a rugged fellow who has been flattened by practically every lineman in the National League only to bounce back ‘without injury. . . . Lambeau has heen coaching the Packers 18 years, while football went through a complete change of pace. . . . And says Halfback Heber is his favorite protege in

~ "post graduate” football.

” 2 WHEN pro football was in flower in Indiana the Indianapolis J. J. C.s were the tops. . . . Joe Canning backed the team and old Washington Park was the home grounds. . . . His eleven finally won the state championship by defeating Kokomo before 5000 fans, a record pro crowd for Indianapolis. ...Gauma Neal, coach at De Pauw, was one of Canning’s ace pastimers and specialized in blocking kicks. . . . In one important tussle Neal blocked a punt, snatched the ball and ran for the winning touchdown. The sixteenth annual reunion of the old J. J. C.s was held Saturday night at Canning’s picture gallery on E. 75thst. . . . Many of the town’s sports celebrities were there to : eat and talk over football, baseball, boxing and basketball. =, . A few of the old gang on hand were Harry Geisel, Ownie Bush, Tom Quinn, Carl Callahan, “Curve Ball” Noonan, “Doc” | Morgan and a host of former J. J. C. followers. # » » # i o \HE Joe Louis fight camp won’t name the round in which the Brown Bomber will topple Eddie Simms in Cleveland tonight. ... . Joe's followers are a bit uncertain. . . . They got the Simms boys confused and thought Jee was to meet _ Frankie Simms as a substitute for Rubber Man Johnny Risko who was injured while training. Frankie, while a stiff puncher, is not in the same heavyweight fistic bracket as brother Eddie. . . . Frankie had shown up in the Louis training camp several months ago and was the only Simms the Louis troupe knew. . + . And go Mistah Joe says, “I ain'{ pickin’ no round. I'm just fightin’, that’s all.” The scheduled 10-round affair is to feature a Christmas fund show. 2 82 8 ” s 2 OOTBALL fans of Indianapolis and vicinity are offered an opportunity to take in the Rose Bowl grid classic in California on New Year's Day and make the trip in swift fashion by TWA air route. . . « Leave Indianapolis at 10: 49 New| Year's Eve, reach Los Angeles at 9:19 a. m.
