BEAUMONT MAY
GO'TO THE MINORS

CHICAGO, January 7.-Clarence Beau
mont, who used to be the leading run-get-
ter on the Pfttsburg team before one Of his
knees went wrong. met Barney Dreyfuss
here yesterday and asked for his release.
but hasn't got 1t yet. 1t is understood that
all of the old league clubs have waived
claim to Beaumont. and probably he will
be found in some minor league the coming
season.
Joe Cantillon. who recently bought Out
fielder Ganley from Pittsburg for the Wash
ington team made several offers to Drey-
fuss for some of his surplus players, want
ing them for his Minneapolis club. No deals
the evening for Cincinnati to be present
at the meeting of the national commits
sion.

HARRY LEWIS
AFTER JOE CANS

PHILADELPHIA, January 7.-Harry
Lewis, the Philadelphia lightweight. is the
latest of the fighters to challenge Joe Cans
Lewis manager claims that the Quaker is
the boy to dispose of the champion, and he
says that past performances bear out the
statement that Lewis is the better man.
For some time past the Philadelphia has
been fighting men who were heavier than
himself and there is some doubt in the
minds of his friends that he can make the
lightweight limit and be strong. However
that may be, it is altogether likely that
Cans is not averse to picking up a little
easy change by knocking out Lewis if the
match can be arranged and can draw a
suitable purse
Lewis has improved wonderfully of late,
and his two victories over Willie FitZ
gerald stamp him a good fighter. But
Cans is another story

BASE BALL, RACING
AND OTHER SPORTS

handlers who watch first as closely as Alt
rock. but they don't catch the runners of
there because it takes them too long to
throw the ball. II they would shorten up
their throw base runners wouldn't dare
take any bigger lead off them than they do
or Altrock.
Prepared for sox Victory.
Mr.. Selee's remarks about the Sox pitch
ers were occasioned BY q discussion OF the
world series between the Sox and the
Cubs. Il rather looked for the Cubs to
win." said Mr.. Selee. but 1t appeared too
close a proposition to wager any money on.
and I advised people who asked fne what
to do to stay of. White and Altrock make
a hard pair to beat, and. while I didn't see
the series. 1 hear Walsh's spit ball was
even harder for the Cubs to solve
Umpire Henry O'Day. the star Of Harry
Pulliam's stan. had funny complaint to
make about why he was never able to get a
reputation for keeping men close to the
bases during the days when he was q Ma
tional League twirier. II had half-balk
motion" said ODay. that was a fooier to
base runners. but my catcher wouldn't let
me use 1t. He wanted everybody that
reached first to try to steal second. and
always told me te let them get as gay as
they pleased 4round first. so they would be
encouraged to try for second.
Ewing Foped Men Would Run.
b Lck' Ewing was my catcher. Let
EN- go, Hank. he used to say to me; that 8
the surest way of getting them out And
1t was. too. All had to do when thought
runner was going to attempt to steal was
to throw the ball wide SO the batsman
couldn't reach 1t and then duck, for old
Buck would whiz that bail through the
box only about five feet Off the ground. and
IL the pitcher didn't get out of the way the
game would be finished without him. The
way that man shot ball to second base
was a caution.
But what Seee says about the impor-
lance Of keeping men close to the bases
goes for me. too. That's right. Almost
all of the successful pitchers have owed
much of their success to watching the
bases. Those otd-timers. Matt kilroy and
Tom Ramsey. were wonders, at catching
runners hat-foOted off the base"
