Milt Reed Balks at
Signing With Phils

Milton Reed, the Atlanta boy who
Is on the reserve list OF the Phillies,
has Just received his contract for the
coming season. Milt balks at the
price the Philly management placed
on his services, and announces in
emphatic terms that there will be
nothing doing unless there Is good
raise made in the salary offered him.
Reed played with the Phillies near
the close OF last season. and did good
work on the infeld. This Is his sec
ond trip to the National League. On
the other occasion he was taken up
by the Cardinals from the Rome club.
He is fast fielder, and can also hit
the ball, his only drawback being the
fact that he is rather light for the
big show.

his intention by laborirg under the
impression that the showing OF the

control of his better judgment. Hence
the announcement of his intention to

those who are burlesquing the sport.

his lucky streak with his

Smith, he believes he will have
the champion of the world under
his wing before many more
months have passed into history.
For Buckley has been lucky"
with Smith and figures it out in
his own way to his utter salts
faction. By some lucky circum-
stances Smith was kept out Of
two fatal bouts that were fought
during the year of 1913.
UCkLEY is now telling about
- the strange luck that has
pursued Smith during the past
year Mind you, Jim is not
boasting about this in any way,
but rather discusses 1t in an
awed manner Here's about the
way he tells 1t:
"a LONG about last April wo
Smith against Luther McCarty In
San Francisco and decided to
accept it. AS a matter of fact
the match might have Leen con
sldered on, for | know the Nc
Carly people SO figured 1t. A
short time after all OF the de
tails had practically been agreed
upon for battle in Jim COT
froth's club in San Francisco and
The date set for July 4, McCarty
and his manager, Billy McCar-
ney, thought they saw a chance
Of picking up nice little purse
of $1,000 out in Calgary by beat
ing Arthur Pelky. They took
the match on for the latter part
of May, and poor McCarty met
his death in the ring there.
"NT OW, you see, if he had gone
~ straight on through to
San Francisco and started train
ing there, it is possible that
Smith might have been in the ring
with him when he was killed or
dropped dead.
1T HEN there was some talk
about Smith meeting John
Bull" Young in Los Angeles.
Tom McCarey made us a nice Of
fer and we had about decided to
take IT. The contest was to have
been decided in August. We got
to figuring and decided that
Young wouldn't be much of a
card, so / insisted uUon having a
side bet of $500 to make the
game worth while.
OWE all met in Frisco to put
w the money up, but at the
last minute Bulls father weak
ened on the proposition and the
match fell through. McCarey
then got Jess Willard to box
Young, and the latter was SO
badly hurt he afterward died.
lnasmuch as Smith is even
harder hitter than Willard, we
were lucky again"
