YOUNG CORBETT
TRIES HIS HAND
At THE SHOVEL
Former Champion to "Stoke" in
Order to Get Down
to Weight.

Young Corbett, formerly champion
pugilist and conqueror of Terrible
Terry" McGovern, made his debut as a
stoker aboard the steamship Creole yes
terday, when he sailed on that vessel
for New Orleans, where he is to fight a
twelve-round battle with Phil Brock on
December u. Corbett's entrance into
the stocking business is merely to serve
an end. He does not intend to go
after the stocking championship, but
will keep himself in condition by heav-
ing coal during the slx-day trip TO New
Orleans.
The fighter and his manager, Al
Lippe, agreed before they sailed that
some means of training should be So

FRANK FARRELL
DOESN'T Want
HAL CHASE BACK

Frank Farrell denies that he has
made any move looking to the return
of First Baseman Hal Chase to the
Yankees In 1908. The president of the
Greater New York Club is very much
annoyed by the reports that he Is re-
lenting in his feelings toward Chase,
and that he was negotiating for his
return. He says he has not written to
Chase since his desertion last Summer,
nor has he authorized n one to see
the first basenan.
Manager Stallings is equally emphatic
that he has had no communication. direct
ly or Indirectly. with Chase. He says the
prospects of Chase ever playing on the
New York American League team are ex-
ceedingly remote. A..
Chase has been guilty of one of the
most serious transgressions of basebdH
law, that of deliberately breaking his con-
tract without justification, and DESERVING
his club. Contract jumping is punishable
with a most severe penalty by the Ma
tional Commission. Owing to the fact that
no extenuating circumstances can be. ad-
vanced in Chase's favor the National Com
mission will probably make an example
OF him.
