YANKEES AND
 GIANTS HOPING
 ID MAKE DEAL

New York, Dec 19-Miuer Hug gins will divide his time during the next few weeks between holiday Idling and bartering in the player markets Hug confronts more than one perpIexing prOrJleIu in the for nation of his club next season. The race of 1920 -viu be 8 real test for the midget leader of the Yankees
 Although little has yet been ac- complishd toward refortifying the Yankees for the coming race, it is safe to predict the team will receive the essential bolstering before it comes North from the training sea son. In other words, Huggins prooa- bly, will make all the trades h. i' go- ing to effect within the next couple of months.
 Already at least two important deals are under way. but both con front obstacles Huggins seeks first to get first class outdelder. The Yankee outer patrol was all too weak last. season There will be no more experimenting with fedglings. Hug gins wants only a man who can go right to work and deliver the sO-call- ed goods at the bat and afel5. The Yankee chief has not yet divuIged which of his present outfie-ders will go.
 The makeup of the tn6eld depends largely upon whether Frank Baker returns. If Baker comes back he of course. will camp at third base, and 1t is likely Wilson FewsteT will be given the call over Del Pratt. If Baker retires, Fewster doubtless may play third. Pratt, 1t appears, Is on the market, although nothing definite on this point has been v0uchsafed by the Yankee management.
 John McGraw, toos cOnfr0nts weeks of diCkering and planning for the coming season N1cGraw, of course, wants Hornsby, of the Cardinals Oe- yond all else. Branch Hickey. aIw- s an obliging friend of the Giant leader, would like to let him have the boy. but Hornsby Is about the only asset the unhappy Cardinals carry and Rickey is loath to let him depart.
 St. Louis fans have stood for much from the Cardinals. They are q long suffering lot. They stood stoIidly by and saw McGraw sL-Ip the club of its two best Catchers last season, while the team limped along with misfts behind the bat. But their patience has been tried. IL Is at the brea king point Imagine what they'd do if Rickev were to ease his one best bet on to New York to follow Gonzales and Snyder Nothing McGraw could give would salve the outraged St Louisians.
 i5ut McGraw wants Hornsby and the Giant leader usually gets what he wants. Money works miracles 1T baseball as on every other morta trail. And MeGraw has plenty ot that.

SIX WEEKS OF
 PRACTICE MAKE
 YANKEES FIT

New York, Dec. 19-"six weeks of practice should put the Yankee pitchers in shape for a winning start in the pennant race" asserted Miller Huggins before clearing this port for Cincinnati to spend the holidays.
 And every other major league man. ager feels as confident concerning his pitchers, as result of the extension of the training period from four to six weeks already effected by the Ma tiona1 League and soon to be adopt ed by the American.
 The extra time for dekinking not only should aid the pitchers better 70 prime themselves for the opening dash, but should help the teams as a whole to groom to the peak of spring time power. Many managers con- sidered last seasons brief training period all to short for proper condi- tioning.

like to study law, IL had been arranged
for him. His father only said:
"0f all contemplate things, the
meanest is to make a son take up
work which isn't his"
So Jimmie studied law, then he went
into an office and moved upward until
he had been an assistant district attor-
ney in New York. His brilliant work
had won him big reputation.
Life was so full of pleasures and
of joys and of everything going on
smoothly happily. And the last and
the greatest Of all the happiness he
had known had been when he had
loved and found that he had won the
heart Of Beth Gray.
There had been only one incident
which, as Jimmie now looked back
upon his life, had at all made him
unhappy, and he thought of 1t but sell
dom now.
One of the boys he had liked best
at first at college, ana who had had
many winning qualities, had turned
out to be the worst sort of scoun-
drel. He had cribbed In examinations,
cheated in games, and used money
which had not belonged to him. They
had rule Mt college by which the
student body could expel, and they
had expelled Arthur Cogswell.
Jimmie's disillusionment in his
friend had been his only tragedy.
Never had he forgotten the look on
Arthur's face and the fiery red Of the
long narrow scar over his right eye
when he said as he gritted his teeth :
81 know you're Irresponsible for this. u
! (Arthur often made WIS of his r's.)
"And I'll get you for II some day, If II
takes me all my life"
Now it had completely gone out of
his mind. He thought only of Beth
and of being success for her sake
