w THAT would you say if you
w heard that Norman Elber-
field, the Stormy Petrol of
Southern League baseball, probably
would be shortstopping for the Dodg
ers when the flag drops for the start
of the National League season?
That's what we hear, anyway.
The report rolls over from the
Brooklyn training camp at Augusta
that Manager Robinson is losing no
sleep over Kirkpatrick's jump back to
the Federal League.
THE best shortstop the Yankees
ever had in their best days is coach
ing our boys here now" Robinson is
reported TO have said "and I'll back
him to- day against most of the high
priced performers. in that position in
either league"
OF course, Robinson was talking
~ about the Tabasco Kid. The first
hunch was that the Kid was going
to coach the green 'uns in the gentle
art of juggling the leather, hitting
the dirt, and allied accomplishments.
Now it seems likely that the scrappy
veteran will be seen in the spangles
once more, and in the center ring-or

FEDS DISPUTE
OVER DIVISION
Of BALL TALENT
Tinker and Knabe Object to Gil
more's Plan to Award Play
ers by Lot.
By w. j. McBeth.

~HICAGO, Feb. 27.-James A.
Gilmore, the energetic presi-
dent of the Federal League,
must hurdle a real obstacle at the
meetine here tomorrow He has
called a meeting of his followers, at
which he proposes to arrange among
them me amicable settlement rela-
tive to a division of talen. that VII
best balance his field of eight clubs.
President Gilmore has said repeat
edly, and still sticks TO it, that the dia-
mond athletes will be pooled in such
a manner as to divide playing strength
as evenly as possible. Otto Knabe
and Joe Tinker have both declared
they Will not countenance such
move. They say they have hustled
all winter for the best available tai
ent, and that less energetic clubs
should not profit at their expense.
Ned Hanlon, the moving spirit o.
the Federal League, would not eX-
press final views upon the matter, but
intimated that he would oppose pool
ing on any wholesale form
1--WE are in better shape, so far as
players are concerned, than some OF
our rivals" said Mr.. Hanlon. But
we are not going to let sentimenc
stand in the way of giving Baltimore
the very best we possibly can. PeE=
haps we can spare a few of our play
ers to bolster up the less fortunate
clubs, and will be only too willing to
do So But such must be content with
our surplus. They need expect none
of our best men"

as near that coveted spot as the Dodg-
erS can shove themselves.
COuTHERN LEAGUE fans are
- unlikely to forget the fussy little
chap that came so near to knocking
the Crackers off the pennant tree last
year with a big Pole.
Elberfeld came near to setting a
record for getting fired from games.
1t was suggested toward the latter
part of the season that, instead of
mentioning the fact that Elberfeld
was chased for disputing decisions, it
should be noted particularly that Ell
berfeld was NOT canned-on the in
frequent occasions when he stuck out
the nine innings.
PUT he isn't a bad little Pepper
- Kid, at that, and he certainly
makes the game lively Also, he is
one keen little infielder. and we have
an|fdea that Wilbert Robinson could
go farther and fare a good deal worse
in picking a shortstop than by install
ing Mr.. Elberfeld in that job.

think they've solved all

the mystery there is 10
Charley Whites heavy
punching ability down around
Buffalo, N. Y. At least two or
three of the smart critics of the
New York boxing center have it
figured out, and they sum it up
in a few words. ITS the une&-
pected with Charley White that
makes him dangerous" they say.
"As a matter of fact. he is the
man who does the unexpected at
all times. He wins, not by lead
ing and landing on an opponent,
bur by waiting for the opponent
to lead, and then knocking his
head off with an unexpected
counter"
THERE may be whole lot to
l this ."discovery," but it is
certain that there is nothing new
about this system of working.
The Buffalo critics watched
Charleys work against Joe Kan
sas the other night, and though
the Chicago boys speed was
something marvellous, and all but
baffled the eye to follow the
punches he landed on the luckiess
Kansan. they think they have
solved the mystery. We've seen
Charley in several contests, and
three in which he knocked his
men out, but in all of these cases
he did the leading himself, and
didn't wait for the other fellow to
come at him.
THE boxer who puts all of his
force behind a punch that
lands on an opponent coming
toward him certainly can get ter
rife power to his punch-more
power than he could leading at
man who at the time may be
going away or slipping his head
That's the chief use of the feint
in boxing-to make a man do
something you want him to do.
Bring him toward you. drawing a
certain lead at the same time,
and then whack him-that's the
system. But it takes q clever,
brainy boxer to DO 1t. The av
erage boxer to-day feints because
he has seen stars feint. Usually
he doesn't know what he is doing
it for as far as actual effect Is
concerned.
w HITE has put an awful dent
w in the boxing game in Buff
falo by being honest enough to
whip one of their stars. Joe
Kansas was one OF the big cards
in the Bison City and twice now
Charley has knocked him out.
AS a result Joe isn't the strong
drawing card he once was and
the Buffalo promoters are already
casting about for some star to
take his place.
THEY still have Jimmy Duffy,
L the elongated lightweight,
left, but White already has his
eye on James and has made up
his mind to treat him about as
harshly as he treated Kansas il
Duffy will give him a return go.

SPORTING COMMENT

White and Duffy boxed a while
back and some of the Buffalo
papers called the affair a draw,
although White always will claim
that he Won it. Buffalo promoters
might do we'll If they lodged the
White affair for a time; other
wise they may soon be looking
for still another card. Duffy is
from Lockport, but he is one Of
the greatest fistic attractions
Buffalo ever had.
L JIMMY thing about local cards
of this kind. Boxing in a
town that has such a local favor
tie is always good, especially
when the card" is engaged in
the main event. Racine, Wis,
never took much interest in fight
ing of the polite sort until Mat
ty McCue was developed. Mil
waukee likewise has had its big
cards in Charley Neary, Ad VOL
CAST, Jimmy Clabby and a few
others. Even a city OF the size
Of New York likes the local men.
Terry McGovern once was one
of the biggest attractions there
and he boxed almost every week
to packed houses for a whole
season.
M ANY times good boxer who
w is unpopular is one of the
best cards that could be obtained.
Almost as many people will go
to see a man beaten as will turn
out TO see a favorite win-strange
trait in human character show
ing right there. Lots and lots of
people like to see much touted
man downed.

fully for the future. My information
is that the team has been none too
well prepared for a run of hard luck
of this character. Besides, it is not
unlikely that some of their older
players will before long drop out of
the game, and other and younger
blood will. be needed to fill in. Co
lumbus would do well to start
searching for young players to fill
the positions that will no doubt be
left open by older heads.
At the same time it is worth while
pointing out that after all there need
be no great surprise felt on the part
Of the sporting public if the Column
bus team had lost some games this
season without having the alibi OF
injuries to account for the defeats.
| have spoken before of the great
Improvement being shown by va
rious teams of the South, parucu-
Iarlv the college teams, and it stands
TO reason that Columbus can no
more stand pre-eminent in basketball
forever than can the Athletics, Har-
ward. Cornell or any other teams in
their specialties.

latter defeated Georgia in Athens;
and Georgia did defeat Atlanta on
the latter's own court, which was
more than the Discoverers could do;
from which facts we argue that the
record of the Red and Black team
is shade better than that of Co
lumbus, or any other Southern
team.
But when we come to study the
mere wins and losses of the teams
we find it impossible to declare a
championship for any team.
1t may be argued that inasmuch
as Atlanta, Birmingham and Co
lumbus each lost three games dur
ing the season, whereas Georgia only
lost two, therefore the latter is en-
titled to the laurel; but, as before
pointed out, Georgia only played one
game with Atlanta and none at all
with Birmingham; and it is rather
probable that she would have lost
one game, at any rate, out of the
three had she played these extra
three games, and then her record Of
losses would have been the same as
that of the other three teams.
Entirely apart from all champion
ship argument it is due the Discov.
erers to say in no mincing way that
they are entitled to very great credit
indeed for the way they stuck in the
game and won out over Georgia in
the very last game of their season
on strange court.
Fuller reports from Columbus
show plainly that the team fell from
grace almost entirely because of
numerous severe injuries suffered in
the last couple of weeks by the play
ers, among whom there was hardly
one sound man in the lot. Now, of
course, no man and no team can per-
form at best form when all are
crippled up and the real wonder is
that they got through as well as they
did
