WHITE SOX READY

" TO ATTACK NAPS First Battle at Cleveland Today Figured a Hard Proposition. Cleveland, O.. April 23. After oonoquering the. Browns twice and drawing with them once in the three battles at St. Louis the proud Whit Sox arrived n Cleveland shortly before noon yeseiday and prepared to attack the bar racks of the swarthy Naps today. The preparation consisted of repose. It was a showery afternoon and few of the athletes ventured out of the ho tel, most of them preferring to sleep a bit to make up for loss of rest on the ong ride from the Mound City. Man ager Callahan has nineteen warriors here and expects to need every one of them before- this series is over. It will be remembered that during the latter part of last season the Cleveland club was the hardest one In the league for the Sox to beat. Had it not been for the prowess of the Naps the Sox might have landed In third position. Cleveland has practically the same tea.m this year. George Stovall is gone and a youngster is working on first base, while Harry Davis, formerly of Connie Mack's world champions, is boss of the team. PAGKEY IN 1 1 TRAINS FOR WELLS Chicago Boy Takes to Road to Reduce Weight After He Arrives. iew iorK. Aprn zs. jrianicea on one side by Billy Gibson and on the other by Manager Emil Thlry and trailed by a retinue of the faithful, Packey McFarland, the demon bruiser of the Chicago stock yards, was escorted Into this hamlet yesterday. McFarland lost no time In hastening to training quarters. The Motthaven A. c. was chosen as the place where the 'visiting boxer will complete his active preparation for his battle with Matt Wells, the English lightweight champion, at Madison Square Garden on Friday night. That McFarland la no laggard Is In dicated by the manner In which the lithe boxer abruptly left the party. He pointed in a northerly direction soon after his arrival, leaving Manager Thiry to arrange the details for the In ternational contest. Packey looks a bit heavy when he stepped off the train: hence his desire to do some road work immediately. He followed his weight reducing grind with a busy session In the gymnasium, where sparring partners furnished by Billy Gibson were used as punching bags for the Chicago flash. STANLEY TRIMS CHARLES LEDOUX London, April 23. Digger Stanley last night beat Charles Ledoux, the French champion. In the fight fer the bantam championship of Europe.

CUBS LOSE A DAY, BUT GAIN HURLER j i Southpaw Moroney, Late of Detroit, Added to Large

Slab Staff. While Cubs and Pirates were kept apart by wet grounds yesterday. Presi dent Murphy and Manager Chance signed a left handed pitcher to add to their already congested slab staff. He is James F. Moroney, F. A. (condensation for free agent). Moroney has just been released by the Detroit club, with which he made the spring training trip, and was un der consideration for the Cubs last fall. Charley Carr, who managed the Utica club, with which Moroney finished the season of 1911. recommended Moroney to the Cub magnate aj being a better southpaw than Jimmy Nagle, whom the Cubs obtained indirectly from Syracuse. In the same league with Utica. Carr said Moroney had Insisted on a nonreserve contract with Utica, consequently was a free agent. On attempting to do business with Moroney last winter. President Murphy found the pitcher's salary ideas pretty strong for an unknown quantity, so passed him up and the Detroit club signed him. As soon as he received notice of his release from the Detroit team, Moroney notified President Murphy and came here Yesterday. After a conference, in which Manager Chance was included, the young southpaw signed a Cub contract and will get a tryout. Whether or not his salary Meaj were as strong as before was not disolosed. TOHHY RYAN OFF TO JRAIN FLYHH Former Champion Leaves for Hot Springs to Join Camp of White Hope. Tommy Ryan, erstwhile middleweight champion, who has figured as prominently as any of them lh pugilistic history, ' was In Chicago yesterday. He stopped for one brief hour Just long enough to hike from one railway sta tion to another and continue his Jour ney. His destination Is Hot Springs, Ark., where he will take charge of the training of Jim Flynn for the latter's fight with Jack Johnson on July 4 at Las Vegas, N. M. ' When Ryan was high gun In the middleweight regiment more than a decade ago. Syracuse, N. Y., claimed him for Its own.. Later he became a resident of Benton Harbor, Mich., Chi cago and other places, but now he makes Syracuse his home again, and It was from there that he left Sunday night for Hot Springs. Perhaps all the world doesn't' know It, but Tommy takes great pride in the part he has played in the making o rlrig champions. After he had given up the game himself, he "prepped' Jeffries for his fight with Corbett at Coney Island and saw Jeff knock out Corbett In twenty-three rounds. Ryan taught Jeff the crouching attitude. Now Tommy Intends. to make a cham plon. out .of Flynn Vf that Is possible. Tommy looked like the same old Tommy of years ago, and from appearances Father Time has dealt leniently -vn 9i

with him. .He Is enthusiastic . over the coming battle between Flynn and John son, -and said that if Flynn had the "goods" there would be a new world's champion after July 4. Ryan thinks pretty well of the Pueblo coal passer's chances and hopes to teach him a few tricks Flynn doesn't know tricks that could not be conceive! by any other brain than that possessed by Foxy Tommy.

WISCONSIN VARSITY "8" IS HEAVIEST IN MANY YEARS Madison, Wis., April 23. Wisconsin will be represented at Poughkeepsla regatta In June by one of the heaviest crews that has ever worn the cardinal. Coach Pollock's men average 179 pounds, against an, average of 167 reget pounds last year and 166 In 1910. This average will, of course, be duced considerably when the men to working In a hot sun for an hour or two each day, but they will probably weigh In at over 170 pounds on the day of the race. The heaviest crew1 at Poughkeepsle last year was Pennsylvania, weighing 16S pounds. The weight will be a great advantage from the standpoint of strength and power in the boat, but will be a handicap to Coach Vail In training the I crew on Lake Mendota this spring. A heavy crew must be trained to pull in perfect rythm and to catch the stroke quickly and absolutely at the same ,second. There are four veterans In the varsity boat Captain Pollock at No. 6. where he distinguished himself last year; SJoblom at No. 3, his seat last year: Mackmiller at No. 5, and Tasker, stroke, his position last year. - , CHINESE TEAM TO PLAY MAROONS The yellow peril 1n the shape of a Chinese baseball team will hit Marshall field tomorrow afternoon. -The team, which Is composed of members of the University of Hawaii, Is scheduled to hook up with the Maroon team.
