BAL T|MORE SENDS
NJ CUE CONTINGENT.
Kid Egan's Opponent Will Have
Plenty of Support at Ard
more Club,

Baltimores contingent of boxing fans
are coming to Ardmore Thursday night
10 root for Young McCue, former BAN
tam champion of the South. in his fifteen
round battle with Kid Egan, Washing
toms crack featherweight contender,
Both boys will go on at catchweights,
and should be strong enough to put up
a mighty fast mill. McCue has been
appearing before the Philadelphia clubs
during the fall and winter. and is in
perfect condition. Those who have seen
Egan here this season knew how
he cares for himself. Young McCue has
put up a side bet that he will win from
Egan, and he is going to make q great
battle for his money. Egan has COW
cred the bet, so confident is he Of win
ming.
While Washington enthusiasts will
root for Egan, many will be there to
see the sturdy contest between Cyclone
Marx and Buddy Ray. There is bad
blood between these boxers, and the
whole eight rounds of their milling
should be fast and furious. Cyclone
Marx has many friends in the Bureau
of Engraving and Printing who are go
ing. out in body to root for him. he
is one of the best local boys now in
sight, and he is striving to mt himself
for a main bout.

stupendouS sums. that many millions
attend games during a season every
where, and that the magnates light
cigars with $40 notes and drink cham
pagnc instead of water. The men to
blame for this condition of things
are the magnates themselves. the very
men who will have TO dig down into
their clothes II the outlaw leaguers go
through with their program of fighting
organized baseball Their punishment
mas been long delayed, but 1t Is most
righteous.
Americans are prone to eXaggera-
tiOn. They like to think that they
are the greatest people on earth, that
their cities are the largest on earth,
their inventions the most wonderful
on earth. and all down the line in the
same way. 1t is because of this ma
tiOnal characteristic that the bunk of
the magnates has gone down without
question. Indeed. il may explain why
the magnates have followed such a
misguided course They may be vic
TINS OF the same weakness
Baseball is not going TO perish
merely because the Federal League is
IN the field. But the major league
magnatcs are going to learn q lesson
which they should heed. They should
take the fans more into their con-
fdenCc. They should acCustum them
selves to telling the truth Instead of
lies They could do away with all the
bunk that they have been handing out
for 10. these many years. And they
cant begin any too soon, either.

Billy Evans Has New
Problems Under Way

In a rather unusual play in an Amer
lean League game last year, the UNI
pire was called upon to use common
sense as well as to follow the rules
His decision started q lot of argument
and was protested at the time. but
the rulin gwas hteld to be the cor
rect one, and is now followed by al
the umpires.
The play came I'D in the first hal
of the ninth inning, with the home team
leading by the score of ? to l. Tht
visiting club started a rally, gettiRl
men on second and third with only ons
out a spit ball pitcher was doing the
twiriing for the home team. Any
fnfielder will tell you that the sph
ball is harder to throw after the batter
hits it than it IS to pitch It. The we
spot seems to spread, and II the t:'-
fielder's grasp happens TO hit this We
spot. there is no telling where he vii
throw the ball.
It so happened that the batter hi
q rather slow bounder to the shortstop
That player decided to make an atternp
to get the runner at the plate II pos
sible. A perfect throw was needed te
turn the trick. The tnfielder got holc
of the wet spot and cut loose q wetrs
throw which sailed high above the
catcher's head. striking the wire in tbs
stand about Ten feet above ground ane
sticking there. The catcher raced bact
to the stand, took on his big mitt

to drop to the ground. Picking Il up
he threw to the pitcher. who covered
the plate, in time to get the runner
who had attempted to score from sec.

time were some of the best known stars
Of baseball
leagues can find enough talent to get by
With The two majors have had a hard
time of IL. yet here comes another cir
cgit TO call for at least go additional
players.
The bush has already been raked fore
and aft for those who even resemble
the proper stun. But IL the new circuit
can figure out some system OF estab-
fishing a fairly even blend IL will be
hard to tell the difference. We have
seen any number of ball games in small
minor leagues where the play was of
the most brilliant type-where wonder
full starts. hard-running catches, and
sensational incidents, followed in swift
succession.
Working upon an even basis, these
minor leaguers have looked better than
big Ieaguers. 1t is only when they are
thrown in direct competition that the
difference is seen, and most Of this is
at the bat or in the box. not in the
field The minors abound in talent that
can hold it's own in fielding with any
major league. We have seen any num-
Der of minor league outfielders who in
fielding were upon par with Milan.
Cobb or Speaker, but who. couldn't hit
in fast company.
The main job the Feds will have will
be in perfecting this blend Of the few
major leaguers they can get with the
youngsters just coming on If they
can work out a well-balanced league
which may take some time-they have a
corking good chance of sticking. Later
on they must make their circuit more
compact, but this can come in time.
They now have an arrangement too
BADLY scattered, but if the circuit shows
promise of succeeding it will be easy
enough TO change the makeup and
work out a different scheme just as the
American League did twelve or thirteen
years ago.
The Feds have a tough battle ahead,
but they have a chance. 1t all de-
pends upon their own effort. There is
no rich field awaiting their invasion,
but there is space enough for any or
ganization that can produce the goods.
A combination of money and ability or
brains can travel quite way, even in
the crowded places. 1t is a tough CON-
to beat back. AS to how much
coin the Feds are willing to risk and as
to h0w much baseball brains they have
to work with, this is something that
only the future can show.

As a result Of the attempt of the Fed
eraI League to break into the circuit nf
organized baseball, il Is thought that
available cities will be thoroughly Gov
,red by the majors and the Class "A
leagues next season. At least five MAJOR
league cities - Washington, Detroit,
Cleveland, Pittsburgh. and Cincinnati
are without baseball half the year, and
this condition is to be changed. AC-

John l. Taylor. vice president Of the
American League, intends to intro
duce q motion into his league requir-
ing the publication daily of the at
tenuauce, but il must be the correct
paid attendance, leaving out the dead
heads. Speaking of the present Gus
tom of padding the figures, Taylor
says: I've never seen large crowd
mates are far above the correct fig
ures. II the Federal Leagucrs think
such throngs of people attend games
they do SO because they swallow the
bait whole Magnates think that the
announcement Of such large crowds
will attract others, but ! am not in
favor of this argument. 1t is weak
ness 10 me"
Baseball should have no need Of such
methods No sport in the country re-
ccivcs such free advertising. In every
bis league city morning papers think
nothing of starting baseball stories
OIL the front pages whenever import
ant series are being played. Afternoon
papers run line-ups and stories on
the first pages almost everywhere.
Pictures costing thousands Of dollars
are used 10 advertise tn" Rdlh'. KISht
send baseball writer's all over the cir
cult three times Il year. paying all cX-
penses. that the fans may get what
they want. Of course. the fans want
this done but doesn't the club gain
by it? 1t most certainly does. And
the same thing is true Of other big
league clubs.
The more one thinks of the follies
of baseball maEnates in the big
leagues the greater the wonder Is that
the Federal League didn't start some
thing long ago. Mystery has followed
mystery into the management of the
