San Francisco, April 14.-Tommy
Burns victory over Bill Lang in Aus

there will be a Burns Langford fight
under the management of Sid Hester
in September. Burns evidently believes
the club already has made arrange

$4,000 to the First National bank. with
orders that the sum be placed to the
credit Of the writer and held as a for
felt to guarantee Burns appearance
with Langford on whatever September
date may be selected by Hester.
Several days ago Burns cabled the
writer authority to sign for him and
asked that the sum Of $4,000 offered
by Hester's club be lodged with the
First National bank of Oakland. 1t

Noisy Catcher May Handle. Semi
Pro. Team Instead of Playing.
Kansas City April 14.-As the days
pass, 1t appears less and less probable
that Catcher John Killing will pay the
fine imposed by the national commits
sion and return to the Chicago Cubs
Noisy John" has made not the slight
est move toward fulfilling the terms
OF his reinstatement, and fans here are
beginning to believe that King never
intended from the start to report to
the Cubs. Many declare the whole
scheme of applying for reinstatement
was an advertising dodge.
King took prominent part in the
reorganization of the Inter City
league, arranged to have a serni-pro-
fessional club in that league and an
nounced that he personally would
manage his team. Killing further de-
clared today that he had fourteen
games in New York for his semi pro-
fessional team, and would probably
make the trip, meeting clubs at Chi
cago, Cincinnati, Boston and New
York en- route. King thinks he can
make at least $4,000 profit on such
trip, and believes it would be foolish
for him to play with Chicago at $4,000
a year where there Is such easy money
In sight.

coRR's GREAT PLAY.

Mobile, Ala, April 14-George
Moriarty is strong for Tyrus Ray
mond Cobb. When George meets
a man who is DESTROYS of discus
sing the great national pastime
George will always bring Cobb
into the discussion to start with
and Raymond remains the subject
Of conversation throughout.
Here is a story George always
loves to tell to show how great
man Tyrus really is:
'The greatest outfield play
ever saw was pulled off by Cobb in
in Washington one day last sum-
mer.
There was one man out and
MILAN, a fast baserunner, was on
first. The batter hit a ball on a
line, one of those mean drives.
Cobb spurted a distance of several
yards and then loafed. His action
indicated that the ball would hit
the ground and he was ready to
take 1T on the bound. Milan sprint
ed for second. AS he did, Cobb
jumped about a foot, grabbed the
ball out of the air and whipped 1t
to first. He had Milan by ten
feet
"You don't see many outfielders
working tricks on line drives,
They are glad enough to be able to
get the ball, much less think of do
ing any fancy inside work and get
ting two men,"

What will the Boston Americans do
during the coming season2
That is the question that is being
asked every day by baseball fans
Throughout the country. The Red Sox
gained lot of friends last season by
the game fight they made all the way
and the speed and dash that they shot
into all their games. The lack OF a.
pitching staff had much to do with
their failure to be right there on the
finish. There never was any doubt as
to the hitting, base running and field
ing ability of that aggregation, made
UP mostly OF young players.
There are two ways of figuring the
Red Sox. Last season it was a team
made UP of young players for the
greater part Under normal condi-
tons you could expect that these would
improve this season and form better
working machine. But conditions
aren't normal Fred Lake was dropped
as manager because he could not come
to terms with Owner Taylor, and Patsy
Donovan took the management Now
Donovan must be put down as a fall
ure as big league manager There
fore 1T Is a case Of putting one years
experience against the manager and
1t looks as though the experience gag
would be overshadowed, that is that
the Red Sox cannot be counted on to
show the form expected Of them had
Lake continued as manager. They
may land in the first division, but 1t
will be struggle from the start.
Donovan was famous player In his
time, having seen service with many
big league outfits For two years ne.
managed Brooklyn, succeeding HanIon.
but he was unable to bring the Troll
ley Dodgers out of the mire Harry
Lord, the field captain OF the Red Sox,

my Collins led teams that took first
honors in the American. The 1903 team
won everlasting honor for itself by
beating Pittsburg four straight games
after the Pirates had won three, thus
bringing the worlds pennant to Bos-
ton. The next season the New York
Nationals refused to play off for the
honors. After that the great machine
was shot to pieces. In 1905 1t dropped
back to fourth place. In 1906 Boston
finished last, and but a notch higher
In 1907. Then came some improve
ment and fifth place in 1908, while
the machine was building and the sea-
son Of 1909 that made the club feared
by all with pennant aspirations. Jim
MCGUIRE started building up this ma
chine, but his trouble with Taylor re-
suited in his release and the success
sion Of Lord. The old New Yorker
pulled the club together and got them
going nicely only to lose out at the
end of the season.
Everyone who was with Boston last
season is back this year There is not
one player that can be figured as 60
ing back. All are coming into their
own as ball players, good for many
seasons more. Jack StahI is at first.
Mcconnell at second, Wagner at short
and Lord at third. This infield. taken
all around on hitting, fielding and base
running, Is hard to beat, while French.

cept at first, very nicely. Thoney,
Miles and Speaker form an outfeld
that Is unbeatable when speed Is con-
sidered All three are fiends on the
bases, while Speaker is the one who is
due to chase Ty Cobb hardest for bat
ting honors this season. Carrigan is
undoubtedly the best catcher in the
American league and has Donohue to-
help him out.

sIIk caps for RaII PIayers.

Mobile, Ala, April 14.-Phil Cooney
of the Maps is a man of ideas, also
Of flowing, curly black hair. which he
wishes to retain. Having the hair and
ideas he has put two and two together
and would run the hair restorer man
out Of business.
Ever notice." observed Coohey.
"that~so many bah players are bald?'
There's a reason for it. The ball play
err wears a tightfitting flannel cap
when he works. 1t keeps out the air
and makes the head sweat. They ought
to give the players thin silk caps I'd
be willing to buy my own If the clubs
would adopt them"
This might be good for the hair and
agreeable to Cooney's purse, but good
ness me, how some athletics would
holler If they had to shell out FIVE
bones for a headpiece which Is now
srovided by the club for nothing.

Philadelphia, April 14.-Philadelphia
fight fans are watching with consider
able interest the antics of Sam Lang
ford In his training camp in Los An
geles, where he Is preparing for his
twenty-five round fight with Jimmy
Barry. Langford is a ten to three
favorite on the coast and the Quaker
city sports take this as an indication
that the Boston tar baby Is getting
into splendid condition.
Langford is due to mix things UP
with Stanley Ketchel before the Ma
tional Athletic club In this city on
April ~, in a six-round event. Ketch-
Ell, who has been training In New
York, has been quoted as saying he
would put Langford out In three
rounds KetcheIs talk is not taken
seriously, for Langford has shown an
ability to assimilate about all the pun
ishment that could be meted out to
him and to come back for more.
