Review Of Sports ''lfaaf'
/ and Athletic News

Waterloo, Feb. lit would be an
easy matter for the present members
of the Central Association to line up
two good teams for the two new mem
bers," said Frank Boyle, manager OF
the Marshalltown Ansons, yesterday
Boyle said he would give the new clubs
at least three good men, provided other
clubs contributed one or more good
players. There are several clubs who
have signed two or more good men
for several positions. and two OF them
must of course, be released when the
season has been started Naturally, the
various towns try to trade or sell the
extra men, but very few trades or sales
are made and the players are usually
given outright releases.
While 1t is expected some of the
towns would balk at giving away play
ers. yet when 1t is remembered that
the life of the league depends upon
favorable action by new towns. the gift
of one or more players would not be
much in comparison If the committee,
appointed by President Ford can say
10 lne prospective lHeIHDcIS tHdt tHcs
will be given the nucleus of their ball
clubs. it will help in getting the league
organized at an early date.
Manager Egan. of the Waterloo CLUB,
is not in the city, but IT is certain he
would favor turning over some of his
extra talent. Local directors are very
much in favor of the plan, believing
that anything that will help the new
members will be Of help to the league.
Waterloo wants baseball this year.
This city never enjoyed greater base
ball enthusiasm than is evident this
year This same condition is said to
exist in Fort Dodge, Mason City and
Marshalltown. while Cedar Rapids and
Clinton both have good ball teams and
should make a good showing In the
pennant race this year. Bill Collins,
manager of the Bunnies. declared at
Cedar Rapids Tuesday that the Bun
mics will start this season stronger
than ever before and he confidently eX-
pects them to land at the top, or at
least among the leaders.

For more than a year before Manager
Jennings let him go, Kavanagh was in
poor health. In 1915, he was re-
markable pinch hitter, but one OF the
most erratic fielders In the league.
Kavanash believes his poor condition
was responsible for his slump and
hopes to land q regular job this sea-
