SPORTING NEWS OF THE DAY GATHERED FOR THE Def
by ED BANG.

(sportlng editor Cleveland News.)
Is history to repeat itself in the
acquisition OF First Baseman Peter
Lister by Detroit and will he follow
I'm the footsteps OF Claud Rossman
and help the Tigers win another pen
nant or two?
Lister, like Rossman. Is a Nap dis
card. Remember, how Rossman went
TO Detroit and helped the Tigers win
their first pennant in 20 years OF
course we hate to fess up 10 II. but
just the same big Glands trusty bat
was responsible for good many runs
scored by Cobb Crawford a Co. IN
1907. and again In 1908. Wen ad-
init that he was of in his fielding at
times, but nevertheless, his good
stick work Offset his poor fielding.
Last season Glands head work be-
came even worse than his fielding and
he was traded TO St. Louis.
ROssman was passed up In favor or
George Stovall. Cleveland was sweet
on Jake Stahl OF washington In the
winter of 19O6-07 and tried TO deal tor
him. They offered Claud Rossman,
Catcher Fred Buelow and nice piece
OF change Tor Stahl. but II was the
beginning OF Joe Cantillon's regime
In Taftyllle and the man who later
was to become so unpoPstSF with the
local fans said us nay.
Had Rossman landed In Washing
ton. the Tigers might never have won
their Hrst pennant and probably would
not have annexed their second and
third The Athletics might have been
the opponents OF the Chicago Cubs
in the worlds series of 1907 and our
own Maps might have had the honor
OF trying conclusions with Chances
men In 1908. But II was not TO be.
Rossman was disposed OF TO Detroit.
not because the Cleveland owners
wanted to help Detroit particularly.
but for the reason they wanted TO un-
load some surplus baggage. Had they
figured Rossman would have proven
the missing link in Detroit's pennant
chain. Claud probably would not now
be relegated TO the minors, but In
stead would still be Nap.
Pete Lister was acquired from
Nashville, Tenn. in the fall OF 1907.

HERES 4 yived the name OF

weight champion
! e---O among the local
gossipers, few Of whom fail TO nave
at their command at least one anec-
dote OF the days when Reakes was
campaigning Michigan and neighbor-
| ing states, and occasionally making
quiet little trip into Canada.
Reakes once admitted TO the writer
that he and his perennial opponent,
Harvey Parker. wrestled seven
matches. of which two were exhibit
] tions. four were fixed and one was
for blood This tallies with an anec-
dote recalled by veteran OF the
sporting world, for his narrative
dwells on the one match which the
pair wres;led out on its merits.
Reakes vas always the planner OF
the pair and he did the framing
I Parker trusted TO Reakes to get the
coin for the pair as he saw fit, and
| there was always settlement after
ward. in which Reakes saw TO II that
I Parker was taken care OF. They had
wrostled back and forth several times
with hOnors about even. and they had
cleaned uD each time in the betting.
when Reakes located a promising OPP
pOrtunity I'm a new pasture. There
was a man who would bet on Parker
and he was the one they we're out to
trim. They challenged while
through the local paper and worked

finally came down and posted side
bet OF $3.50 II was up to Parker
VINO was usually broke-to cover this
and Reakes. without hesitation. ad-
vanced Parker the $3.50 which he duly
posted as a wager on himself TO beat
Reakes. OF course. the arrangement
was that Parker should fal and
Reakes clean up with the money Of
Parkers hacker that had been posted
and covered in the meantime. Reakes
and his friends taking the wise side
OF the bet
They got a swell crowd out and
went TO It. Both were on the aCgres-
sive. Parker so much so that Reakes
began To scent trouble. A conversa-

The DreGicament Of Mr.. Reakes was
one calculated 10 bring tears to the

his own money wagered on Parker
and in the pocket Of an honest stake

away. I'm addition, there was the big
wager OF his own coin. against that

been framed to trim. And here was

as Reakes himself.
