He has settled there for the year with his stable Of crack fighters and announces that he in tends putting that town on the map by staging a number of high class shows.

Sammy Driver of this city, who has loomed up as one of the leading box ing managers of the country is re- ceiving offers galore for the services of his two leading boxers. Larry Will Hams, the light heavyweight, and Young Bogash. The latter is in great demand by Massachusetts managers and chances are that he will in all probability show at one of the two big Boston clubs next month.

It is an open secret among the Yankees that the speed and dash of Fewster made Derri1l Pratt look to his play ing in order to hold a permanent berth on the Yankee team. Fewster is versatile player, covering second, short or third with equal ease, and

It is also possible that McGraw is planning to include Dave Robert son in some transaction with another National League club, presumably the Chicago Cubs. But the Giants man. ager declined this morning to go into details or to intimate what he had up his sleeve. McGraw certainly does not intend to carry four catchers and it is reasonably certain he will retain McCarty and Snyder inasmuck as the latter is one of the best back stops in the National League and a powerful batsman.

He meas- ured every blow and what happened: he not only literally cut the cham pion up into ribbons. but he also forced him to quit. And no one doubts but that Willard quit game; he had enough and he knew it.
 But Jack Dempsey had to win twice, technically knock out his op- ponent twice to win the cham pion- ship"

After a long conference between Manager John ]. McGraw of the Giants and Branch Hickey of the St. Louis Cardinals, an important base ball deal was completed which may be foundation of other transactions. Pitcher Ferdinand Schupp, who has been the Giants for six years, goes to the Cardinals in exchange for Catcher Frank Synder.

Having been doublecrossed by those for whom he made money, Frankie Britt, the New Bedford featherweight, according to word re- ceived at this office today, will leave MasSa chusettS for two or three months and spend his time in New Orleans.

It Is assumed that as the Giants now have four catchers-Snyder Gonzales, McCarty and Earl Smith McGraw intends to make a deal with some other National League club for a pitcher. According to insiders the Giants do not want either Pitcher Woodward or Pitcher Elmer Jacobs, who were traded to the Cardinals by the Phillies on Monday. It is a well known fact that the PhiIlies and the Pirates need catchers, so that 1t may turn out that McGraw is preparing to dicxer with either or both of those clubs for pitchers.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-07-17

Manager Cravath apparently got a shade the better of it for the Phil lies on Monday when he traded Jacobs, Woodward and Baird to the Cardinals for Meadows and Paulette. Fred Luderus is about through as tho Phillies's first baseman and probably will be supplanted by Paulette, who is a faster infielder and a much bet ter hitter. Meadows is a diamond in the rough, according to Cravath, and can be developed into a first class right handler. Baird is minor league third basennan, while Jacobs is cratic as a pitcher. Woodward is a young boxman who needs loads of experience in fast company. Cra- vatn, therefore, appears to have made a wise move.

Differences between players and managers are common. They crop up in the best company. A ball play CT is not the most agreeable person in the world. On the contrary, he doesn't like the idea of being bossed around. This is especially true of the player who has been sent back to the minors by major league clubs.

URGES DEVICES TO Z
TIGHTEN HOUSEWORK
Food Expert Says Better Com
ditions Must Come.

The demand for lighter work and
shorter hours now being made for house.
hold workers is in sharp contrast to the
present long hist Of labor troubles. This
demand does not come from a servants
union or from an organization Of house,
wives but is made on behalf OF both By
Arthur Williams. Federal Food Rdnsin<
istrator for New York =
That equitable conditions for labor IN
the household, whether performed by
housewife or servant is just as essen
tial as In the factory or office, is the con-
tention made by Mr.. Williams The
home" he says, is the last stronghold
to resist modern machinery and labor
saving devices If there is no hesitancy
in equipping an office or facory with
these aids to efficiency, and to better
working conditions with lighter labor
and shorter hours, why should there BE-
in the case of the homes? There 10
hardly a factory in New York to-day
with a foot power sewing machine, or q
hotel where hand dishwashing or broom
sweeping is practised or a hotel or COM
mercial laundry using the old fashioned
washboard"
The solution offered by Mr.. Williams
lOr lHe IlOusenOlu l1DOr problem ana the
one which he believes will enable house,
wives to either keep servants contented
or to perform their own work without
such aid lies in equipping the house with
modern machinery and devices which
either perform or greatly tighten houses
hold labor. Most or these are electrically
operated and Mr. williams has taken
advantage of the annual electrical ex-
position, opening Wednesday in Grand
Central Palace, of which he is also PRES
ident, to arrange as an exhibit a modern
home in the form of full sized apart
fnent in which every household task, ex-
cepting only bed making, will be par
tally or entirely performed, by mechan-
ical means.
The equipping of this model home has
been in the hands of staff Of experts
and 1t will prove a revelation to cleo
trical show visitors. The housewife will
be disclosed in the new role Of domestic
engineer. This comprehensive exhibit Is
expected to aid materially the movement
Arthur Williams has inaugurated for The
emancipation Of household workers.
