CATCHERS TROUBLE
WHITE SOX MANAGER

Chicago, March 29.-Manager Row
land of the White Sox has a heavy
job ON his hands in choosing his
catching staff, say reports from Min
eral Wells, Texas. Ray Schalk, of
course, is sure of his job, and it seems
likely that Jack Lapp, because of his
great experience, will be retained,
but the manager wants only three.
This means that Walter Mayer, Raw
Shook and Byrd Lynn will have to
battle between themselves. Lynn and
Shook are youngsters and have shown
a great deal OF class at the training
camp. The veteran pitchers on the
club say that Lynn is almost sure of
becoming regular Mayer, who has
been Schalk's understudy for the past
few years, also has shown himself to
be a backstop of some class. and may
deprive the youngsters Of their
chances OF becoming regulars.

EDDIE EVERS SIGNS
TO MEET KID HERMAN

Eddie Evers, popular bantam battler
of this city, will meet Kid Herman Of
Pekin in a 10-round go before the
Marquette A c. at Peoria, Monday
night, according to an announcement
made this morning by George Dams,
his manager. Evers will give away
several pounds in the bout, agreeing to
weigh in at 100 at 8 o'clock, when he
can easily make 1r6. Kid Herman is
one of the veteran fighters, having met
some Of the best boxers in the coun-
try in his class and he is still in fine
shape. The arrangement will prob
ably cause postponement of the
Evers-Burns bout, scheduled to be
held in Des Moines, April A. 1t is
probable that this go will be staged
April Is. On April Evers will clash
with frankie White of Chicago, in 10
rounds at Iowa City.

Both Maroons and Illini are to have

New York, March 29.-Tom Jones,
manager of Jess Willard, turned down
an offer of 100000 yesterday for the
heavyweight boxer To most folks
$4,000 looks like a lot of money, but
to T. Jones it was trifie.
The $4,000 offer was from a syndi-
cate in Milwaukee headed by Tom
Andrews First $4,000 was offered
to Willard for a 10-round bout in Mil
waukee with Fred Fulton. When Jones
turned down the offer the promoters
boosted the price to 100000. They
wanted to stage the bout on April &c
AS Fred Fulton seems to be the log
ical candidate to meet Willard, now
that Frank Moran has been disposed
of, it was believed Willard would
jump at the chance of meeting the

NOT IN FAVOR OF AN
OLD PLAYERS HOME

Waxahachie, Texas, March ga
majority of the members of the De-
troit American league baseball club
do not approve the plan of establish
ing a home for retired ball players.
Several Of the Tiger players have de-
clared that under present salary con-
ditions any capable player who does
not become incapacitated by injury
should be able to save at least a mod
est fortune during his diamond ca
reer. Some were inclined to think
that players who were not Of a saw
ing disposition, but who were clever
performers on the ball field, would
not be helped and might be harmed
by the proposed plan.
