LARRY DOYLE NOT BOTHERED
BY BROKEN ANKLE
BY Mark Shields

,
In news from the Cub training
camp at Pasadena, Larry Doyle, cap
tain and second baseman, is seldom
mentioned. This has given rise to a
report in several quarters that the
former Giant star will not be able to
play regularly this season because Of
the broken ankle he suffered last fall.
These reports do not stand up we'll
under investigation. Doyle is being
allowed to take his time getting into
condition. He is putting work on the
newIy-heaIed ankle gradually, taking
no chances that might give him a
setback.
So far as can be Iearned-and this
is from Doyle himself and several
people who are in his confidence
the ankle will cause not the slightest
trouble. Larry wintered in the
south and tested his running gear
there. He played golf and took long
walks. He did everything but twist
and turn suddenly, and never had the
least pain.
Broken ankles have seldom kept
players from the game permanently.
Johnny Evers, Red Smith, Frank Gil
hOoley, Mike Donlin, Roy Chapman,
Harry Wolter and several others
have snapped bones, but subsequent
ly came back and were as good as
ever. Five Of those boys are still in
the big leagues, and Donlin is man
aging Memphis of the Southern
league.
The best indication that Manager
Mitchell is not worried about Doyle
is that no effort has been made to
get a man for his place. Steve
Yerkes is performing there on the
coast in exhibition games, but it is
not probable a chance would be TAX
en- with Steve as a regular. He was
sent away last year and is at an age
when he cannot be expected to i'm
prove. On the coast or in the south

Q66QS continuous not weather.
Chick GandiI has signed a one
year contract to play first base for
the White SOx at terms not given
out. Chick appeared satisfied and
made the usual threats Of the best
year of his career, etc.
Notwithstanding the presence of
Gandil, who is looked on as the regU-
lar first baseman, JOUrdan and Has
brook will be given a thorough trial,
and it is probable one Of them will
be kept on for at least a part of the
season. JOUrdan appears to have the
better chance to stick, because of his
experience and the hitting ability he
exhibited in the Western league.
Manager Rowland and Pres. Co.
miskey do not want to be caught in a
jam by injuries to Gandil, who is a
notorious sufferer from a weak leg.
They want man ready to jump i'm
mediately into the breach in case of
emergency. And that emergency is
liable to crop up.
Cleveland disposed of Gandil and
is relying on Louis Guisto, a coast
athlete who was pretty good out that
way, but was weak before American
league pitching last fall. GuistO is
an experiment And if Cleveland is
disposed to take a chance on him, if
it drops Gandil when the only bull
wark is a green man, it arouses sus-
picion that Chicks leg is not as
strong as it was in 1916.

on Hawaii the heavy rains which fell

HACKFELDS LOSE
SHIPPING AGENCY
FOR A..H. VESSELS
Belief is Percy Morse May Be
Continued as Representative
With Separate Office

H. Hackfeld & Co. is no longer to
act as the Honolulu shipping agency OF
the American Hawaiian Steamship Co.,
according to a cablegram sent 10 the
local firm by it's San Francisco Office,
which had been notified by the Ameri-
can-Hawaiian of its intentions to sever
business relations of many years
standing. The date for the discontln'
uance OF the Hackfeld agency for the
American-Hawai is not given.
One reason is given and another as
sumed for the agency change by those
interested. J. F. c. Hagens, acting head
of Hackfeld & Co, explains that his
company has only nominally been the
agency for the Observation-Disclosures,
and that ali the work OF forwarding
aad dispatching sugar from the islands
on steamers of that line has been at
tended by Percy Morse, the American
Hawaiian general agent for Hawaii.
Up to two or three years ago-the
time when the American-Hawaiian
stopped bringing general merchandise
freight to the islands-the Hackfeld
company were the active agents, and
attended to the financial collections
for the merchandise shipments and
other affairs of ships agents.
"H.nce then we have been agents for
the American-Hawaiian only in a gen.
eral sense, as Mr.. Morse has attended
to all the work of forwarding sugar
shipments. Due to this, and with, the
taking off of the American-Hawaiian
steamers, we have been expecting the
nrio IIaT 81, -,
continue to pay us agency fees, espe.
cially when they had representa-
tive here" said Mr.. Hagens.
Neither Mr.. Hagens nor Mr.. Morse
has been informed as to just what the
American.Hawaiian contemplates do
ing with its Honolulu agency, but it
is believed Mr. Morse will be contin-
ued here as the company's representa-
tive and offices opened separate from
those now occupied
On the other hand there are those
who believe much of the shipping
agency work for any of the vessels
calling at Honolulu during the war
will hereafter be conducted by repre-
sentatiyes of the national shipping
board. This assumption nevertheless
does not presuppose that others than
those now engaged as shipping agents
would not be directly or indirectly
employed to represent the shipping
board in Honolulu.
One thing, though, is certain-the
American-Hawaiian would not be al.
lowed by the shipping board to con-
tinue sending vessels here for sugar
if its vessels did not also bring mer-
chandise to the, islands, due to the
world shortage of shipping.
