Greminger May Succeed Perry
at Third, Latter Going to Second

VIII Ryan shift Perry to second
base this summer? This is not only
possible but probable. Until the ad-
vent OF GremfnEer Perry was unques-
tionabiy the premior third sacker of
this league. However. from all indi-
cations. Greminser will be easily the
star Of the Southern League IL he is
! When Connors was tried out at third
base last spring. Malarky shifted Perry
to the second sack and while he was
not such glittering success as a
second basennan, his work proved that
with steady work there. he would make
about as good second baseman as any
OF them. He was not worked there
could play the bag or not as he was
shifted back to third when Connors
was sold to Savannah. The strong
point Of Rerry's work at third was his
magnshcent throwing across the dta-
mond to hrst and in going back into
foul territory after foul flies.
IL was an extremely rare occurrence
anywhere inside the negro bleachers'
fence. He was just the least bit in
citned to night ground balls. but the
only point in his work that was at all
weak. was in handling hunts. At sec
ond base. he would not be called on
to hanadle hunts and he would have
TO make much shorter throw to first
base. Perry Is about as quick as they
make 'em. and he should rot have the
with Kensali, Pepea. or whoever Is at
short. A. comparison of the third base
work of Perry and Greminger for the
last two years win show why Is Is
probable that Ryan will put Gremin-

two months had elapsed 1T was today
found that the boy killed on the Mobile

north OF Mobile was Howard Parker, q
youth from the Pearl Eagan orphan
Home.
This was made possible by the STATE
ment of another former inmate, CAR
land Castle, who left the Home WIN
Parker two months ago. and who re-
turned here today. and told that Parker
had left to go over the Mobile Ana
Ohio to Vinegar Bend.
The description of the boy at the
time of his death fitted that Of the
former inmate of the Orphans Home
here, but 1t was not known until the
return of the Castle. boy that ino-
type slug containing the name
PARKER had been found in the pocket
of the boy killed.
According to the report this was the
only possible clue to Identification, but
the first name had mashed, so 1t could
not be read. The Parker. boy, with
orphans from the home last summer
visited one of the newspaper offices
where slug containing the name OF

President Appsrson Has Made offer
To Sell And Baseball
Associations Accepts IT. :

In letter received yesterday morn
ing from w. ID. Apperson, President Of
the Montgomery Traction Company, II
was stated that for named sum ne
would turn the franchise of the Mont
gomery Southern League Club over to
lock. stock and barrel. This clears
up what has been one OF the fiercest
tangles In local Baseball affairs for
the past four years.
For several years the local franchise
has been more of q nebulous quantity
than anything else. The FRANCHISE was
in Montgomery all right, but as far
as being tangible thing to either the
Company, It might as wen have been
locked up in the strong box of Cor
neiius McGillicudy. AS matters stand
this morning, however. the franchise
for the first time in its history is vir-
tually in possession OF the Montgom-
cry Baseball Company free of all in
cumbrances. An official of the Base
ball Company stated yesterday that
the sum asked would be paid to the
Traction Company early next week
when Sof course the Montgomery franz
chise will be the sole property of the
Baseball Company.
local franchise began In 1904, and has
continued for the four years up to
date. During those years the Traction
Company was making annual notes for
g certain sum Of money, the baseball
franchise being held as security. For
this reason the Montgomery Baseball
Company has Since its Organization mad
no charter under the State City or
County laws. Not having the fran
chise in their possession the Baseball
Company could not be Incorporated and
up-to-date has not been.
In loking over the records in the
Probate office II was found that only
twice have baseball associations been
incorporated In Montgomery. The first
was on March 26. 1903. the year that
Montgomery was first llade a member
OF the Southern League.
