CINCINNATI WANTS
PITCHER ROY

CINCINNATI. April Id am rather In
ciined to think that the Cincinnati club will
ask the national commission TO decide
whether the Reds or the PhliI.es are enti-
tied to tho services or pitcher Roy, the
Carlisle indian recently signed for the
Philadelphia team" declared President
Hermann, when asked II the report OF
such action was founded on fact.
This Roy may turn out to be a valuable
asset and the Cincinnati club is ent tied TO
his services. True. no papers were signed
when Roy accepted the terms OF the Cfn-
cinnati club. but he did accept proposition
made him In the presence OF reliable wit
nesses. and 1t seems to me that that ought
to hold him.
When the Carlisle Indians were in the
city last fall was persuaded to send for
Roy. who had been highly recommended to
me as pitcher. He came to my Office in
the city building. and after a short talk
made him an offer of certain amount to
sign with the Reds, prom sing him an ad-
vance over the amount as soon as he DEM
onsfrated that he was able to hold his
own in fast company He accepted the
proposition condttionaliy that his parnts
consented to his playing professional base
ball. Now. It would seem that his parents
have consented, for he has signed with

matt mad prior claim on him, however"
