Jimmy Sheckard, who is now at his

Sox squad before the baseball boat
sails for the Orient. Comiskey wants
the Cub veteran, and President John
son of the American League said he
had no objection to a National Leag-

Hopes of securing George Mcbride,
the Washington shortstop, have prac-
tically been abandoned by Comiskey.
Mcbride left Milwaukee on a hunting
trip just before Commy arrived there,
and some of the stars friends declar-
ed Clark Griffith had warned him to
beat it so he would not be tied up
to a contract. Griff does not want his

Milwaukee will not get catcher
from the White Sox in completion of
the deal that made Larry Chappen a
big Lacquer. The terms of the deal
stipulated that Milwaukee was to get
Johnny Beall, $13, 800 in cash and a
catcher or 81, 500. Some talk was
heard of sending Ted Easterfy to Mil
waukee as the third angle of the dick

White Sox officials.
Manager Clark of the Brewers,
however, said he would not accept |
Easterly, even if he was offered, as
the Brewers wanted young men to

too much of veteran to fit into the |

the facts. There is no competition be-
tween babies, but only the effort to

substance Of a story which Assistant Sec

to that republic.
So entirely certain is Mr. Osborne that
the story is true. that he has suggested
that the remains be placed on battle
ship and carried through the Panama
Canal, as a tribute to the discoverer of
the Western Hemisphere.
The distinguishing feature of the cof-
fin is the inscription on the bottom, ac-
cording to Secretary Osborne. contain

is Spanish for Christopher Columbus.
