AS BIG LEAGUE UMPIRE

New York. Feb. 9.-william E..
c'Kitty") Bransfeld. a former big
league first-sacker and last year an
umpire in the Tener circuit, will
not be seen on the diamons of the
National League next season. Brans-
held has decided to quit umpiring
on account of the weakness of his
legs.
While with the Phillies several
years ago Bransfield was seriously
hurt in Cincinnati and was laid up
In the hospital for several weeks
as result of an injury to his right
knee. He has come to the conclus-
ion that he injury to his knee has
prevented him from covering as
much ground as an umpire should

SIGNED WITH YANKS

New York, Feb. 9.-While the
Yankees are Withholding the names
of men who have signed contracts
for the coming season. it is under
stood that Ray Caldwell, the tall
hurler. has signed for next season
at considerably reduced stipend
over his $4,000 war contract.
Huggins has had two talks with
Caldwell and is real optimistic over
the slim hurler. 81 found Caldwell
apparently satisfied. most anxious
for the season to start and full of
ambition to be of service to the
club next season." said Huggins.
He apparently has taken good
care of himself during the winter.
He is working as an automobile
supply salesman. Caldwell has been
through the mill and has come out
with more sense. From my talks
with him 1 have found him quite a
reasonable, likable chap"
