DAZZY ALL READY.

Vance is in good condition already, al
though not having been on speaking
terms with a baseball since last season,
as snowballs are the only kind that
abound in Dazzy's home town in Ne
braska. Vance comes to Memphis from
the Sacramento club OF the Pacific
coast league. from which team he was
purchased by Memphis.
Vance went to the New York YAM
KEGS from Memphis two years ago, and
the Yanks turned around and sold him
TO Sacramento, after deciding that the
big redhead didn't have sufficient class
as major Lacquer. The Memphis club
tried to buy him last year, but he
wasn't for sale, but this year an oppor-
tunity came, and Dazzy was converted
into a Tribesman on short order.
This rounds out the Chicks pitching
staff, as Tiny Goodbred, Bill Thweatt,
Hy Fowlkes, Hugh Canayan and Pat
Albris are already here. It is probable
that all pitchers now on the local staff
will be carried for the first 30 days of
the season in order to give them a
thorough looking over.
Vance will don a uniform and get
started in the spring training with the
Chicks Monday afternoon. The big
says he Is feeling IKE colt
in the epringtime, and that he's ready
to start the grind and help the Chicks
TO their long overdue pennant.

The Leos is made up of young men,
most of whom have been playing to-
gether for about seven years. They
have an exceptionally fast club, with
almost perfect team work
MemphIans will be agreeably sur

played here, as 1t is the opinion of
some Of the experts that the local tai
ant is very good and viii not be sur
prised If the Floyds will win with

A meeting of the governing board
will be held Tuesday evening in order

There was a big heavy named AL

Dempsey was picked for a sucker. He

was one sided, it was declared draw
after four rounds. Later on they met
again, Dempsey winning in one round

TAD'S TID-BITS
THE GREATEST FIGHTER

Joe Gans-that's the name that Jim
my Kelly gave when we asked him who
in his opinion was the daddy of all
fighters.
THAT car was a racing car against
wheelbarrow, piped James, warming
needed, He was no flash in the pan
that baby. He was fighting when
Johnny Van Heest, George Siddons,
Spider Kelly and Bobby Dobbs were
good. He won from them. Then he
waded through that other tough bunch

den. Mcfarland, Critic and Fitz-
Ss "He was fighting when the new crop
came-Memsic, Herman, Unholz, Britt
and Nelson. Can you beat that for a
stretch? Most fighters live through one
big season and the fellows they fight
die off with them. Cans went through
men than any other fighter that ever
lived.
He never got excited Everything
went like clockwork with him. He
seemed to be worried all the time, but
that old skull of his was working. He
was cool and clever, a terrible puncher
and as game as pebble.
Remember the night he fought Haw-
kins? They both landed together and
both went down. They were both dead
to the world. Cans was as dead as
Hawkins but he got up before Haw-
kins did and staggered around.
"Poor Hawkins was counted out. II
that didn't show that Cans was there

THE hardest punchers and cleverest
boxers were just the same to Joe.
Critic never could do anything to him,
and he was the varvel of them all at
boxing. Hard hitters-even Walcott-
never got more than draw with him,
He lost some bouts, sure, but pipe his
string of wins.
