Cubs and Reds May
Spring Big Trade

CHICAGO, July S.-The owners OF
the Chicago and Cincinnati teams do
not deny that there are negotiations
between them for a trade or sale OF
players.
1t is stated on good authority that
Cincinnati will get a couple or prob
ably three Cubs, and that Bobby
Bescher is the man Chicago wants. Ii
is not thought that Garry Hermann
or Manager Tinker would let Bescher
90, but any man is liable to be let out
if proper inducements are offered. He
is considered the fastest and best
base runner in the National League.
Heine Zimmerman is one Of the
players mentioned on the Cub side Of
the deal Zimmerman has openly at
tackled Johnny EVers and his meth
DDS of management and at times has
threatened to assault him. Bescher
was sought recently by New York,
but Manager McGraw would not give
the men CinCy wanted.
Manager Tinker said that the Reds
expect to land three Chicago PLAYERS
and that he believes the deal will be
made soon.

DrOme Races Set for Tonight
Graves Goes After Speed Trust

nth the prospects bright that
Wv Atlanta's Rainy Season" is
over for 1918, with races
scheduled for Tuesday and Thursday
nights and with the racing situation
enlivened by the arrival of a new ma
chine they're of tonight in another
session at the Atlanta Motordrome.
Everything points to big evening
of thrills and speed
The riders themselves are fairly
wild for another meeting. Half the
lads at the track are in the game for
the pure excitement of it, but all Of
them are trying to make a living at
it and they haven't had many chances
to win prizes lately, owing to the
rains that have caused SO many
postponements. From this time on
the prospects look bright for the rid
ers and the public too Races will
be held every Tuesday and Thursday
nights. In case OF rain they will be
postponed until the next night. All
tickets are provided with rain checks,
good any night. This means that,
barring freakish weather, there will
be two race meetings a week
The big sensation tonight is prom
| ised by Morty Graves and his new
machine. This truly great rider has
been out of the real racing since the
| Atlanta Motordrome was opened
] owing to the fact that his machine
was imported. Now he has brought
a new craft to Atlanta and has been
showing laps in ten seconds fiat
with il.
Graves will start out tonight after
Jock Mcneil and TEX" Richards, the
two speed wonders of the track The
three of them have machines now
that are as fast as any in the world.
They are daring riders, willing to
take any chances on earth to gain an
inch or cop a prize Riding of a
most sensational nature may be ex-
pected from this trio.

home of Bill Schwartz, the two play
ers having been brought up together
His first professional game was at
Des Moines and he went to the Cubs
in the same year. He is but 2S years
Of age and has many years before
him in the game. During the season
Of 1912 he stole 80 bases in the big
league. Last season Manager Chance
caused much talk in baseball circles
by swapping King Cole and Holman
for Lefty Liefield and Tommy Leach
members of the Pittsburg Pirates
Both Cole and Hoffman have since
dropped to the minors, while the men
secured by Chance are still in the
big tent.
Soon after joining the Pirates Hof-
man suffered from nervous prostra-
ton and was forced to rest in order
to regain his health. This year he
was played for a while in the out
field. but Fred Clarke had a number
OF hard hitting youngsters in this de-
partment and announced the release
Of Hoffman to Kansas City, of the
American Association.

AS soon as Bill Schwartz learned
that Holman was to go to the minors.
he telegra phed him and soon had him
willing to JOIN the Volunteers. Kan

CAST wants to place that he will stop
Richie before the regulation 30
rounds This money, Tom Jones says,
Is in John Clark's hands waiting to
be covered.
80 anxious is Wolgast for a match
and so sure is he of beating Richie
that he Is willing that the money be

Wolgast Would Bet Even.
1T Is a cinch that the odds would
be in RitChies favor IL he stepped

Wolgast, however, will hardly be fit

he is coming here il looks as il 1t will
be easier to get him into the ring with
Jess Willard" said Jones.
Coffroth is also figuring on Leach
Cross Harlem Tommy Murphy fight
for September. The only thing that
stands in the way is the $4,000 asked
for by Cross. COffroth considers this
demand excessive. and unless the New
Yorker meets him half way he may
decide to send Murphy against Bud
Anderson.

champion, does not intend to allow
himself to be showed out of the lime
