tured the 'steenth Leegson murderer
yesterday, he was duly photograph
ed, it was announced that the case
was solved, and then the colored per-
son behind the bars presented an abb
that shot the case full of holes.
That was the only piece of good
sleuth work which resulted from a
days shadowing by city detectives,
Federal LeagUers and Murphyites.
For the first time in many moons
there was no announcement at Fed
headquarters Of any new players be-
ing hooked to the new Organization.
If this isn't startling enough, just
consume the information that Presi-
dent Murphy Of the Cubs has decided
on a policy of silence, and will not
give out the names of any players
who may agree to another term on
the West Side.
Tinker is still without guardians
for second and third on his ball team,
but declares he will have the neces-
sary athletes lined up in few days.
The signing OF Jack Dodge by Louis
vile and Heinie Groh and Bert Me
hoff by Cincinnati was blow to the
new boss. His only consolation was
the fact that Garry Hermann had to
give up some regular money to pull
the deals.

has become reconciled to his fate,
and will worry along in Cincinnati

lightweight, lays away his gloves, it
is safe to predict that he will be a
contender for the crown now held by
Willie Richie. Griffith may never be
a champion, but it will take title
holder to beat him.
Again last nj ht he proved his abil-
ity by defeating Joe Mandot in eight
rounds at Windsor, Ont. Mandot
rushed matters in two or three
rounds, but always found the Ohioan
ready for his rallies.
Griffith was equally good at long
range boxing and close toe-to-toe
smuggling.
The hackers of the Akron biffer
have shown much shrewdness in
making his matches. He has been
gradually lifted along, each of his
opponents being slightly better than
the preceding one. Griffith has never
been sent against man until he was
absolutely ready for him.
The success of these tactics is
clearly proven in the good record
Griffith has made. He will soon be
ready for Leach Cross or Joe Rivers,
and if he disposes of either of these
lads, nothing will stand between him
and a battle for the championship.
