COLE SAYS FEDS

ing King" is the Story

New York, Feb. 6.-That the Fed
eral league has failed to live up to it's
agreement not TO modest players that
nave accepted terms with organized
baseball came to light yesterday when
King Cole. the Bay City barber who
signed with the Highlanders yester-
day, made public a letter which he
has sent to Charles Weeghman, presi-
dent Of the Chicago Federal league
club.
% says that he laid the facts be-
fore President Gilmore of the Fed
erals and showed him a telegram from
Mr.. Farrell accepting his terms. but
despite all this the head Of the "out-
law" organization urged the big
pitcher to affix his signature to Chi
cago's contract. saying that the me-
gotiations with the New York club
were not binding.
The pitcher also charges that the
Federal league changed the dates on
contracts. which he signed with the
outlaw organization to avoid trouble
with organized baseball in case the
New York club said he signed with
the Chicago team after January 2.
and Gilmore had the dates changed
on the contracts to December 80. 1918.
It was not until January 2 of this year
that Cole received President Farrell's
telegram accepting his ternls of S3,-
800 to pitch for the Highlandcrs dur
ing the coming season.
The changing Of the dates from
January back to December would
have meant much to the Federal lea
que had Farrell brought the ase to
court,

Heads the List.

New York. Jan. ga big bunch of
players are to return to the big lea
que clubs this spring after so%journing
for a time in the minor organizations.
one of h most notable ~'comebacks''
this year is Pitcher Harry Covaleskie.
When he played with the Philadel-
phla Nationals a few years e Coval-
eskie was a terror to the batsmen. es-
pecially the heavy artillery of the New
York Giants. AT that time the Gil
ants were able to make about all of
the National pitchers back up with
the exception Of the Pole in the Phil
adelphia uniform. Covaleskie beat
the McGraw clan so easily and so oft
en- that he was dubbed the "Giant
Killer" Last season he starred with
the Chattanooga team of the South
ern league. and now he is to return
TO the big show as a member of the
Detroit Tigers.
A number of other pitchers are
scheduled to r%e-enter the big arena
this spring. While these slabsters
lack the reputation Of a Covaleskie
to back them UP, they all ooh good
enough for one or more feeds at a
big league hotel. Dode Criss returns
to the major league as a member

who was tried out several years ago

team last season. will be taken south

"Toots" Schulz, formerly of the Phil

Casey Hagerrnan. who led the West

trial.
Intie]d and outfcld artists as we'll
as pitchers are numbered among the
players who will try to show they are
now able to hold up their end in the
speedy set. Blackburne is to get an
other trial with the Sox. Another
former big league infielder, Third
Baseman Silly Purtell. has affixed his
signature to IL Detroit American lea
que contract. Purtell once was with
the Chicago White Sox and later with
brilliant work for Montreal. Jimmy
Johnston, former Cleveland Nap and
last season a star in the Pacific Coast
league. has been signed with the Chi
cago Cubs. Outfielder Lester Chan
nell is to don a New York American
league uniform for the second time.
Catcher Hickory Johnson, formerly
of the st. Louis Cardinals, is slated
for an opportunity to show his wares
to Manager McGraw of the Giants.

PLAY THE
HUSKER TEAM TWICE

Minneapolis, Feb. 6.-The Minneso-
ia basketball team will line up tonight
against the University of Nebraska
five in the first at home game since
Jan. 10. The Cornhusker squad will
arrive in Minneapolis today in time
to get in a little afternoon practice on
the Minnesota floor.
The Gophers have played in the
hardest kind Of luck all season, losing
every game by a small margin, but
Coach Cooke figures that the hoodoo
is bound to lift tomorrow night and
let Minnesota get started on a winning
streak. The absence Of McKeon from
the lineup is a serious setback to the
team. 1t is doubtful If Bee Lawler will
get into the lineup, as his knee is still
bothering him. After tonight's game
the Cornhuskers will remain in town
and meet the Maroon and Gold again
on Saturday night.

DEFEATED CHAMPS
DESERVE A CHANCE
Jeffries Declares conquerors
Should Grant Return
Matches.

Los Angeles, Feb. "a champion
be he a veteran with a long ring
record rolled up to his credit or a
pink-skinned youth who has gained
the title at the finish of three or four
weli-made matches-is a difficult
proposition to handle and more diff
cult to understand.
1t was upon one Of those rare &C.
casions when Jim Jeffries drops his
guard and talks fight with newspaner
men that he gave voice to the follow
ing:
"A defeated champion should al
ways be given a return date with the
man who has beaten him. The. fact
that a boxer has held a title for a
number of weeks OF years. as the case
may be. is recommendation enough.
1T a he taken for granted that
he was q. hiEh-class man or he would
not have held the championship. And
that he is finally defeated is no reason
why he should be counted out. If
he wants a chance to redeem himself
he should get 1t, and the new cham
pion must be a bunk champion. in
deed If he refuses it."
Has License to Talk.
Jeff is well fortified to make this
talk, considering that he boxed. Fitz-
simmons, Corbett,,a Sharkey and RUN
lin twice.
No champion eyer tried harder for
IA return match with his conqueror
than did Ad Wolsast after losing on a
foul to Richie. And Wolgast had ev-
cry ground for his demand. He held
the lightweight championship, from
February 20, 1910, to November %,
1912, during which time he met every
dangerous contender that the game
could nHnHnra ord In tho ann Lost m
a technicality.
On the other hand, Ad had stead
lastly refused to give. Battling Nelson
q return date after he had conquered
the Dane in forty terrible rounds at
Point Richmond. and Nelson. by rea-
son of his long and most honorable
record, was entitled to the chance to
regain his title.
Sent Bat to Discard.
Wolgast's real reason for refusing
to consider Nelson was that in the
(Ad) should be obliged to take the
short end" in every detail, and Mel
son had continually tainted and in
suited him.. 1t was poor excuse
from a purely ringside view. but VOL
gas made it stick and sent the Bat
tier to h trash heap.
Richie held as his reason for avoid
ing Wolgast that Ad. in losing decis-
ions to Harlem" Tommy Murphy and
Young Joe Azevedo. had automatically
disqualified himself from the cham
pionshjp line and was no longer a
card" Wolgast in defeating Rivers,
however, has again placed himself IN
line for a chance at the title.
