George HogrieYer started playing ball,
but his first real engagement came
in 1888, when he signed with the Ham
ilton, Ohio, club. where he played until
the end of the season of 1889. He
went to Ottumwa, Ia, in 1890, and in
mid season was sold to Kansas City.
He was there in 1891, but the league
failed, and Hogriever went to Apple
ton, Wis, and from there to Oshkosh,
in 1892. In 1893 he was in Easton.
Pa, and then went to Sioux City, in
the old Western league. He was sold
to Indianapolis in 1894 and played for
". H Watkins until 1904. He was
with Cincinnati for a time and re-
turned to Indianapolis. and in 1905.
was with Des MOines. He was sold
to Pueblo. in 1908 He went to Lin
coin, in 1903. At the end of 1909 he
was given his first release.
free agent Hogriever went to
Appleton and took the management of
that team, playing the outfielG for the
last three seasons. To all appearances,
''Hoggy" is good for another five
years, and, as he declares. he intends
to keep on playing until forced to re-

the American title is Edward Nc
GoOrty. of OSHKOSH, Wis. Mante1 IS

title Danny also states that Papke
wanted only $4,000 for his end, win. lose

came to earth and signed reasonable
terms.
Manteu is also anxious to go to Aus

is due the little New Orleans boy.
When MandOt was defeated by Ray

MandOts' hand 1t is unfair to the
people VINO patronize boxing shows,

neglect their training. Of course, bet

frankie Conley. the Kenosha feath-
erweight, one of the toughest pieces of
fighting machinery ever turned out, is
going east again, following his defeat
by Harry Thomas, of England. at Los
Angeles Conley has been at a bad
weight. He could not make the ban
tamweight limit and be strong and he
was trifle too light for the real good
featherweight, as his best weight is
about rs pounds. frankie made the
necessary 116 pounds for Johnny Cou-
lon, but the weight spoiled all his
chances of winning, as he did not
have the strength for a strong finish.
He wants to get another chance at
Johnny Coulon, II the latter will give
him a couple of pounds, or with

Goorty should put over the K O., the
same as he did to Dave Smith in New

claim to the title as Thompson won
