"-WENCK
If Fans Think Ertle Cham
pion, It's Up to Them,
Saws Commissioner.

Fred A. Wenck, chairman of the State
Athletic Commission, believes firmly IN
the doctrine "of the people; for tne
people, by the people" II the people
want a thing, he believes they should
have il, and il they only think tnlng'
ne believes they sho Ild think 1t as long
as they want to. He said this yester-
day at the regular meeting OF the COM
mission at the New York headquarters,
ii Park Row.
Wenck was led to make this state
ment because of the request OF tne
Clarement Athletic Club 10 nave the
commission declare Johnny Ertle, OF
81. Paul. bantsmweight champion OF
the world Ertle insists that since ne
won over Kid Williams he is entitled
20 the title. The club is advertising
him as such, and requested the sanction
Of the commission.
Wenck. however, refused TO become
involved. He said that the club could
90 AS far as il liked, and the public
would have 10 decide whether or not
the Westerner was champion. III the
fans wish 10 accept Ertle as champion,
/, is up 20 them. have no statement
10 make on the .tter whatever. III
they think he is q better man than
Williams, they may do so. IL IS not Tor
the commission of this state 10 decide.
Johnny Dundee and Scotty Montieth
were on the carpet for their part IN
delaying the match with Willie hitchie
last week Wenck was in favor OF sus-
pending Dundee for thirty days, but
later relented. Jim Savage was also on
hand 10 answer charges. The American
Sporting Club declared that Jim wished
10 withdraw from his match with Tom
Mcmahon on mex, Friday night: Savage
declared that Martin Julian, VINO mace
the match. had been dismissed as his
manager. Julian, however, declared
that he was manager az the time the
match was made and produced doeu-
mentary evidence 10 substantlste his
claims. Turned back At that point,
Savage declared that he was not in
condition to go through with the match
anyway, but would be ready for action

YANKEES DECIDE
ON SAVANNAH FOR
TRAINING CAMP
Harry Sparrow Discovers
That Ocala, Fla, Is Not
Meant for Baseball.
By JEROME BEATTY.

One grand lss they call it) stand
doesn't make a ba6eball park, 40 the
Yankees will train next spring at Sa-
vannah. Ga, and not at Ocala, Fla.
Cap. T. L. Huston, secretary Of
the New York American League base
ball club. after hearing the report
from Harry Sparrow. chief of training
grounds scouts, decided Yesterday that
the team would return 10 the same en-
virons that surrounded 1t last spring.
Sparrow made a quick trip into Flor
ida, taking special notice of 0cala, q
town Of $500 persons, where the ia
cilities were said 10 be Just what the
Yankees needed. According to word
from the Commercial Club of Ocala,
theirs was the town TO which Ponce de
Leon should have bought his ticket.
In Ocala faded batting eyes would
blossom like the sunfower and Charles
II. Horse was a person not listed in
the village directory.
The climate was immense, Sparrow
learned, and near by were number
Of camps where could be found other
major league clubs, with whom exhi-
bition jousts could be arranged. But
a baseball park was necessary. The
president Of the Commercial Club said
nobody had a better one. and led Spar
row TO IL.
All the park lacked was a place for
the players. The stand was entirely
adequate. new one with press box
and wire netting But in front Of
the stand was a pasture. rough, hard
and hilly and full Of wild and uncouth
tropical plants Il was a good place
10 test the mountain climbing ability
of a traction engine, but II wouldn't
do for baseball players.
So Sparrow came home and made a
regretful report TO Bill Donovan and
Cap. Huston. They decided that IL
would be best TO return TO the familiar
scenes Of Savannah.
The National League ruled last
winter that none Of its clubs should
begin training before March /. The
American League is expected to take
similar action this year, and Donovan
will order most Of his men to report
in Savannah on March /. Half dozen
or more young pitchers will begin work
week ahead Of time. Donovan be-
lieves the pitchers should have head
start, so that the batters will have
speed and curves TO hit Cor miss as
soon as they report.
At the Yankee Offices Sparrow is hard
at work arranging exhibition games for
the Yankees. The Giants, travelling
over about the same route every year
have less worry about these contests
John B. Foster. anyway, is too en-.
crossed with the Army-Navy football
tickets to have time for baseball.
Applications are piling into the
Giant Offices, in the Fifth Avenue
Building, and almost all the seats al
lotted to the public have been spoken
for. A few hundred remain for those
who send their checks Immediately.
"Home Run" Baker was sold to the
Yankees in a newspaper story yester-
day. Captain Huston was sorry to say
that the tale was untrue.
