PINK GARDNER IS
AFTER JOE TURNER

The naming of a referee will not
hold up the scheduled championship
wrestling match carded between Joe
Turner. the local middle-weight
grappler. and Con Albright. of
Rochester. at the Lyceum Theater on
Thursday night. Albert failed to put
in appearance yesterday to settle
this question, but Turner Is SO de-
termined that Con shall have no alibi
to offer after the match that he
greed to allow Albright to name any
referee he desired. even II the selec-
tion must be made. from the audience
at the ring side.
Albright will no doubt agree upon
O'Connor as the third man on the
mat as Pat was not the official who
worked in the much-disputed affair
OF two years ago which was stopped
by the police.
Should Turner be successful in TAX
ing Albright into camp he will not
be compelled to go a great distance in
finding a grappler who has always
given him a tussel and who has al
ways given the fans here the best he
has ia him. A challenge has been
turned over to Manager McGeorge
from Pinky Gardiner. the well-known
middle-welght, who is after Turner'S
scalp.

ST. ALBAN'S CAGEMEN
TAKE ON WESTERN

What should prove one OF tho best
basketball games scheduled today in
scholastic ranks is slated to be play
ed between the st. Adams School for
Boys and the Western High tossers.
The Interscholastic League leaders
will no doubt feel a slight handicap in
playing in the small Wisconsin
avenue gym, but Coach Morse's crew
are at present going at the top Of
their speed and are being picked by
their followers to hand a trimming
to the Hilltop team. Western will
use the same lineup to start the
fray as that which was represented
in all the local clashes in the inter-
scholastic series.

five from Emmittsburg, Nd. today,
in the Kendall Green gym. Although
the Bun and Blue were handed quite
a severe setback at the hands Of the
fast Navy quint on last Saturday. they
are by no means discouraged.
Coach Moore has been working hard
with the team during the past two
days and has II in pretty good
shape for this game. Not much is
known of the speed Of the Mary
landers. but Coach Moore's Quint is
ready for a tough battle. The game
will start promptly at $50 p. m. Gal
laudet will use the same lineup as
that which started against Navy Sat-

TYLER WILL BE
HELP TO CUBS
Boston Hurler Fits in Well
in Chicago Array Of
! Pitchers.

New York. Jan. N.-The Cubs made
a good deal when they got George
Tyler from Boston.
Tyler, working with Alexander,
Vaughn, Douglas and the younger
members of Fred Aiitchelrs pitching
staff. should be a pillar of strength
to the Chicago club, for he is the sort
OF a pitcher who can win with Just
the average support behind him and,
best OF all. from a Cub viewpoint, he
Is a left-hander.
There are only a few really depend
able southpaws in the National
League compared TO the number of
right handlers who have strangle holds
on their jobs. And Tyler and Vaughn
are of this class. Tyler Is no young
ster in SO far as major league expert
ence goes. for he has been a men,
Der OF the Braves. including the sea-
son Of 1917. since 1910. when he came
up from the Lowell club.
His record for the eighth season
spent with the Braves shows that he
lost more games than he won, SO
far as grand totals go, but he was
handicapped by being a member OF a
loser most of the time. and the won
and lost columns OF pitcher with a
losing club do not show his true
value.
Tyler has won a total Of ninety
four games of baseball since he bust
ed into the big show. and the records
charge him with 102 defeats. The
records also show that he is a good.
substantial workhorse, for in every
campaign in which he has taken part
he has pitched in better than thirty
games a season with but one excep-
ton.
Up to three years ago Tyler's main
trouble was wildness. But for the past
three seasons he has been getting
'em over in better form. for where
he used to hand out a hundred or
more passes in a summer. he has
succeeded in cutting the yearly total
down nearly 20 per cent.

LEAGUE RACES
ARETOP HEAVY
Two Clubs in Each Of the
Major Leagues Appear
to Be the Class.

Barring the fact that future trades
may shuttle the dope. both major
league races may be top-heavy events
this season, with two clubs IN each of
the fields leading the parade the
greater part Of the journey. The
Boston Red Sox and the Chicago
White Sox should seize the honors
IN the American League, with the
decision coming to a climax between
The two in the final brush on the
ptretch drive. The Giants and the
Cubs stand head and shoulders above
pll competitors in the National
League. as they lineup at present.
The likelihood of dark horse
eansizing the preseason calculation
lar remote.
The American League campaign
may be something akin to a carnival
for Chicago and Boston. Employing
the showmanships tactics for which
he Is known in the theaterical world.
Harry Frazee has assembled the
greatest aggregation OF star players
In the history Of the American
League In Boston. He has virtually
merged the remnants of Copnie
Mack's once mighty Athletes and the
handful OF men the war did not
absorb from the Red Sox. The Ameri-
can League campaign bids fair to be
a bitter struggle between the Sox OF
the West and the Sox OF the East
with the chances OF each at par.
Chicago will have practically the
same team which annexed the
American League flag last season and
overcome the Giants in the world
series. As to the other foemen their
prospects are still cloaked in doubt.
None appear sufficiently formidable
to out-stride the Soxan clans. The
Yankees are apt to furnish a thrill
or two, but the fans can hardly ex-
pect Miller Huggins to hit the same
stride with the Sox clubs during his
hrst year in Gotham The Yankees
look good for the first divi-
sion. while Detroit. Washington and
Cleveland look more formidable than
last season. The st. Louis Browns
and the Mackmen will doubtlessly
bring UP the rear.
The Giants will present practically
the same personnel with which New
York swept to a soft triumph In 1917.
Only HerZog will be missing, and
while he was a potent force in the
victorious drive last season. his loss
should in no way affect the general
efficiency OF New York's play.
The Cubs, thanks to the liberality
Of the men who hold the purse
strings. have a cast OF championship
fiber. With Alexander. Tyler, Vaughn,
Douglas and others available for
pitching duty. MitchelPs clan should
press the Giants hard throughout.
HoldoGts are few and far between
In the National and American leagues
this year Daily come the signed con-
tracts Of the members of the Giants,
and in a few more days John Foster,
secretary Of the club. expects all of
the documents to have been returned.

TEMPORARY MANAGER.
Dick Hoblitzell Will Lead Red So1
In Place of Barry.

Dick Hoblitzel, first baseman Of the
Boston Red Sox for the last four sea-
sons. will be appointed temporary
manager OF the Boston team within
the next few days. All doubts about
the possibility OF Jack Barry's being
granted a furlough by the navy so
that he might manage the Red Sox
again were set aside last week by
Lieut.. Park, OF the Boston Navy
Yard, when he said that positively no
firloughs would he granted to pro-
fessional baseball players in the
