QUITS FOR GOOD

Philadelphia, Oct. Tub Spencer.
former Philiy backstop. who was sold
to Louisville a few weeks ago by the
Phillies. announced yesterday that he
had retired from baseball and gave
his gloves, shoes. sweaters and uni
forms to some small boys around the
park. and stated that he would leave
for Scranton. his home. Immediately
after the worlds series.
S%pencer's father is said to be worth
several millions of dollars. and he pre-
sented Eddie with Il check for $4,000
as soon as he made his decision. Spen-
Ger intends to return to Scranton only
long enough to be married, and then
he plans to go to the coast for the
winter.
The big catcher is n great admirer
Of the Athletics. and he made the first
big wager on the worlds series. Spen-
&c: laid $1,000 to $4,000. in various
bets. which includes two of $1,000 to
S1.to0. The bets were made with two
Philadelphia brokers after he cashed
his big check.
Spencer came to Philadelphia short
ly. after Manager Charley DOOM broke
his leg in st. Louis. on q hurry call
issued by President Fogel. Since then
he has done the best work of his
career and endeared himself to all the
players on the road. Three weeks ago
he was sold to Louisville. and it is de-
c!arad that Spcncer's determination to
quit the game is final. He would not
tell who his future bride is to be.
