Deal in Which Belt Secures Catcher
Cavanaueh Hardly Looks Like
Repeater of Last Years
Deals
NO COST TO MANAGEMENT
Belt Can Exercise Good Judgment
and Retain the Player During
Season Without Expense
if He Desires.

Is owner John F. Higgins of the
Des Moines baseball club trying to IN
load again this year on PA Belt OF
the Indians? 1t might look that way,
but such is hardly the case unless
Belt thinks the new man Cayanaugh
is wonder and eventually makes a
purchase
Belt was little backward about
even corresponding with the Des
Moines Club after the heavy grab of
Bill Annis and Second Baseman Oy-
Ter last year. When he did write Hig
gins he reminded him of the deals of
last season and said he wanted no re-
peaters
Cayanaugh comes to Keokuk with
out any cost whatever to the manage
ment other than railroad fare. And
when Higgins said he woul1 send him
word was received that If Cavanaugh
did not suit a catcher who would,
would soon be beating it for this burg.
The Burlington Hawkeve says
Manager PA" Belt is troubled with
an excess of good men, and does not
know whom to choose. He is in the
predicament of making selection
which will be on the wrong side He
has nine pitchers. eight fiel6ers and
three catchers, all OF whom look good.
Prough and Jaeger appear to be fix,
| lures on the pitching staff, while Blue
Jacket is desirable. But there are
other good men whom it is hard to
give up. The choice will be made
after little more trying out. The
outfield has four equally good men,
and the choice will have to be almost
toss-up between vasbinder, Reichle,
Hilderbrand and Morris It is prob
able that Reardon and Sweeley will
catch, and that Miller viii occupy
/ first, Thomas second, Bresnahan third
and Sensenback short It will be a
hard thing TO dislodge these fnfielders,
although the other material is mighty
good. 1t is not probable that Belt
will have any trouble disposing of his
surplus men to other managers in the
circuit.

TEX" Rickard and Jeffries' friend,
Clarence Berry, reached camp in time
to witness the boxing and the set-to
with Burns They expressed surprise
at Jeffries' marked improvement.
Jeffries played with Berry after his
workout, frisking about like coy

UNI work and his ten-mile run on the
road il the early morning.
Berry was so well pleased with JEFF

In the past Jeffries' WORK lacked fire
and ginger, but yesterday morning he
declared that he was satisfied for the

We could not possibly have hoped
for anything better said Berger.

Baseball Team Has Withdrawn From
Amateur League and Action
is Said to be Of
fetal
CLUBS SAW "FRAME-UP"
Believed Purple and White Manage
ment Was Playing for Star In
field and They Would
Not Stand for it.

The Keokuk high school baseball
team has withdrawn from the Com
mercial league. The action taken at
the meeting of the league Saturday
night was declared to be official to-
day by Paul King, in whom proper
authority to take such action was vest
ed by the president if the high school
athletic association and Coach Bel
KNAPP. This leaves only four teams
in the league They are Huiskamp
Bros. Elks, Hubinger Bros. and St.
Peters. A committee was appointed
by President R. E. Chamberlin of the
Commercial league and the matter
will be renewed with the high school,
but players in position to know say
nothing will come of it.
When the league met Saturday
evening the expected hitch in the
program came, but it resulted more
disastrously than was expected. The
high school wanted four drafted men,
and moved that such rule be insert
ed in the constitution and bylaws
giving all five clubs power to draft
this number. Last year the number
of drafted players included only three.
After vote it was found that two
clubs only were for the proposed
amendment, while three were set firm
~ against it,
Seeing that they could not gain the
point Paul King followed his instruc-
ton from the athletic association
president and baseball coach and
withdrew the team from the league.
The three clubs voting against the
proposed amendment are sure the
high school had stacked things up. Il
is learned that the high school
would have had the following infield
had the amendment carried: Harry
King, catch; c. King, first base; P.
King, second base; Stephen Irwin,
third base; Craig McManus, shortstop.
It would have been the fastest in the
league.
But without an infeld of this COM
position the high school could no.
have made a good showing during the
summer months. The team is not go
ing to be very strong during the
high school season and several OF the
players will be unable to take part
during the summer
It is hardly likely that the high
school will come back into the fold,
and if not schedule will be drawn
up with the league composed, as it
is now, OF four clubs

JEFF FINALLY

At Conclusion of Yesterdays Work
Trainers Were Well

BEN LoMoND, Cal, April 25.-In
the presence of a crowd of critical
fight followers who visited Jeffries'
training camp Sunday, the big fighter
gave a physical culture exhibition
that more than satisfied the visit
ors.
Jeffries' condition, compared with
his physical trim when he began train
ing, shows remarkable improvement
and for the first time he frolicked
about the gymnasium with his old
time exuberation Of spirits.
The mornings workout consisted OF
a session with the chest weights, fol
lowed by a fast mix-up with the medi
cine ball and the punching bag. He
led up to the boxing bout by a pre-
liminary exhibition of shadow boxing
finishing with three fast rounds witt

Must Depend Upon Twirlins Staff
Rounding Into Form for Opening
Fray, as Therein is His
Strength
HOW THE DOPE LOOKS
Fact that Belt Has Secured Catcher
cavanaush Gives Writer to
Take Different View OF
Situation.

If Manager Frank Belt is to land a
pennant for Keokuk this season the
pitching staff viii have to be depended
upon for the heavy end OF the work
Therein lies Belts hopes. And II Is
not unreasonable tc suppose tnat
Prough. Jaeger and Burch will be al
least as good as they We're last season;
that Blue Jacket will be even better,
and that Leiheld, Edlick or Broad
well will prove fast enough for the
Central association. 1t looks as II
the enl thing that can prevent the
twirling staff from rounding into form
for the opening fray will be unfayora-
Bile weather. If the present weather
conditions hold forth it is doubtful
whether Prough will round into form
to go against Galesburg in the open
ing encounter, and the task of winning
the first game may fall 20 Burch or
Blue Jacket
Much is expected of Eelt this year,
especially as he has been given Tree
rein. While the manager steadfastly
refused to declare outright that his
catching staff did not suit, uae fact
that he has secured Cayanaugh from
Des Moines leads to the belief that
he may not ever stop there. Thus
far neither of the two catchers are

Thus far the veteran has had little op-
portunity OF working. the position be-
ing monopolized by Sweeley and the
other tryouts. In fact. there has been

backstops cutting loose.

Morris, who has been working in cen
