name used: What the Feds want Is
new territory for a minor league.
They must have some place TO send
their surplus players. l know that
any number Of players are willing to
jump, but the Feds haven't any
where to place the men who are at
present with their clubs. A minor
league is what is most wanted, al
though a desirable city TO take the
place of Kansas City would jus:
about make the league a big sue

The parting of Frank Kramer, the
champion cyclist, and Jack Neville,
the champions trainer. came about
rooner than expected. The men agreed
to disagree yesterday. In fact, al
though 1t has been talked about for
the past few weeks, It came as a sur
prise. Kramer had been hearing ru-
mors to the effect that Neville YVES
going to train Alfred Goullet nsxt
season. At first he paid no attention
TO the gossip. but yesterday he put
II right up to Neville. Jack told
Kramer he wasn't satisfied with pres
ent conditions, and he intended to
make a change. Tho men talked the
matter over.
well, If you are not satisfied, make
mo a proposition" Kramer said TO
Neville.
Jack didn't have any proposition to
offer, and that settled it.
o
Kramer, when seen, didn't want to
discuss the parting. He said he
didn't know why Neville had left him.
1T was all up to jack" Kramer
said. II heard rumors that he was
going to quit as my trainer and l
asked him IL II was 80. He said 1t
was, and that he expected to become
a trainer for college. I took my
keys and wished him luck"
o.
II is known that Gouiiet has been
after Neville for some time. The
idea was put into Gouilet's head by
Joe Fogler, who is a sort Of engineer
for Goullet Fogler has openly de-
clsred that Neville was the only
thing that stood between Goullet and
the championship. We will see.
Goullet was until recently trained by
Mory Gordon. They had a falling
out after the New York six-day race.
and 1t is believed that Fogler ma
nipulated the quarrel. Fogler and
Gordon do not gee at all. and Joe
always felt that Mory was In hiA
way when he wanted to pull of any
team stunts. Last summer Gouiiot
and Foglet were In several combina-
tons, and this ''pesved" Gordon not
n little. Mory said be could never
see why Goullet, almost q champion,
should split his money with one
legged bicycle rider. ouarrels were
not infreQuent between Fogler and
Gordon, and Goullet and Gordon ha d
a tilt. That was the very angle thai
Fogler was looking for. With Cor
don out OF the way joe would os
a bio TO handle Goullet.
O.
II is not known definitely whetheI
Neville is going to train Gouiiet from
now on. but every indication points 4
that fact. 1t may be that Jack vii
take up college work. but II IL believes
that Gouilet will make II sufficientl,
alrurins to induce Neville to trail
him. Neville IL looked upon az tn
dean of trainers, and those who ough
TO know say he Is about the best Il
thu world at his particular line. H
has been with Kramer for 80 man,
wears that the champion said yester
hay he would have liked to have fa,
lack to remain with him throughou
his entire career.
But what was / to do?" Krame
said. He told me he was dissatisfied
and refused to make me a PROPOSE
ton. Il was always willing to do a
much for him as anybody else, but
seems Jack wants to make change
will have to get a new trainer, o
course, but I do not know Just VIII
1t will be-"
