"The present strike of men en- gagged in switching service was or ganized in Chicago by a new organiza- tion that has for it's purpose the de- struction of the Brotherhood of Rail- road Trainmen. and the Switchmen's union and in its inception had noth- ing to do with the wage question. but was demand for the reinstatement of the leader of this opposing organ fZation. After this strike was insti- tuted for this purpose, the leaders Of the new organization then injected the wage question for the sole pur- pose of deceiving yardmen throughout the United States, and promoting the one big union" idea There can be ton while this illegal action contin- ues. We insist that every member of these brotherhoods do everything in his power to preserve their existing contracts, which if abrogated may take years to rebuild. The laws of all of these organizations provide penal ties for members engaging in illegal strikes and these will be enforced"

ALEXANDER IS
 MAKING GOOD
 WAR PROMISE

Chicago, Feb. 5.-Grover Cleveland Alexander, one of Fred MitchelTs star hurlers, has gone to Urbana, H., to assist Prof" Potsy Clark, university baseball tutor. The great Alex will remain with the university athletes until February II. The following day he, with other Cubs, will leave for Hot Springs, Ark, to put in a few practice licks before leaving for the Cubs training camp at Pasadena, Cal.
 Alexander's promise to assist Clark at Urbana dates way back to one day in France, when Alex and Clark were busy shelling the Germans. Clark, former star quarterback at Illinois, was 8. lieutenant in Alex ander's battery of field artillery. The firing had been particularly hot this certain morning, and during a 1ull in the proceedings Clark remarked to Alex, who was sergeant, that if he ever got out of France alive he would return to Illinois and coach the base ball squad.
 "Yes, if we both get out alive I'll help you" Alex shot back at his lieutenant. Little more was thought of the matter until one day about three weeks ago, when Clark and Alexander met in the lobby of a local hotel. Clark reminded Alex of his promise and the big pitcher said he would make good.

Local Boxer Who Is Signed to Clash With New Yorker In Star Bout at East End A. c. Show, Must
 Extend Himself to Escape Beating a'

Although Louis Bogash has a big following in this city there are many local boxing enthusiasts who think he will meet his match when he stacks up against Irish Patsy Cline in the star bout at the East End A. c. show at the Casino on Feb. g. Cline has met the best in the country. He has appeared before the leading clubs in the principal cities and has held his own with all the top notchers,
 Bogash has met with great sue cess in his bouts throughout New England. He made a big reputation in his last affair with Paul Doyle in Boston. The referee announced the result as a draw but many of the spectators and newspaper men thought Bogash was entitled to the decision. Bogash is a favorite in Boston as well as in other cities throughout Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Because he is a Bridge port boy the local fans are anxious to see him advance on the road to pugilistic fame.

EDWARDS, RING
 STAR, MAY BOX
 IN JERSEY SOON

New York, Feb. 5-Lew Edwards, the highly touted Australian light weight, now on the Coast, may be seen in action around this city before the snow flies away. Dave Driscop, who promotes fstic encounters at the Arena A. C., Jersey City, is anxious to see just how good Edwards is, and wired an offer yesterday for his ser vices. The champion of Kangarooland is in San Francisco under the guiding eye of Tom Andrews.
 |, Andrews and Edwards arrived from the Anttpodes a few days ago and when they regained their equilibrium announced in a, duettist tone that Ed with Benny Leonard. From all re- ports that have hopped over the cables this Edwards youth is consid- cred a corgper as far as fighting is i'm volyed. At home he had the peculiar faculty of knocking out all his rivals.
 Driscol1 figures that all the ad- vance publicity and also the outstand- Sing fact that Edwards can fight will make the stranger a good drawing card. Therefore, he is willing to stage him with Leonard or Dundee if the latter outpoints the champion Monday night
 Of course the movie contract with Leonard will make it impossible for him to meet the visitor for months. R,,t there is Dundee and also other rood lads in the off1ng who might shock Edwards.

McGraw May Stand
 Pat On His Lineup
Will Not Attend Chicago Meeting Where Fans Expected He Would Make Some Trades-New York Critics
 Think He Should Strengthen Infield

New York, Feb. - Apparently John J. McGraw, manager of the Giants, has decided not to attend the big major league meetings in Chicago next week for the purpose of talking over trades with other managers and getting his playefs in line for the coming season.
 Joseph D. O'Brien, the club secre- tary, received a cab1egram yesterday from Charles A. Stoneham, president, in which the latter said he would leave Havana today for Chicago. This leads to the assumption that McGraw would remain in charge of the Stone ham-McGraw racing interests in Cuba until the end of the month and then go direct to San Antonio from Havana.
 Baseball fans here appeared to re- gard the decision as perhaps meaning that McGraw intends to stand pat
 on the Giants as they are, and will give up efforts to strengthen thein by corral1ing Hornsby, Maranvflle, Red Smith of the Braves or any of the other players mentioned throughout the year as liable to succeed Zimmer-

GYMNASIUMS WANTED FOR
 INDOORS SPORTS

Representatives from many of the athletic clubs of the city were present last night in the Common Council chamber to point out the need of rec reation gymnasiums for the playing of indoor sports. Rev. w. Horace Day, Rev. Thomas J. Mooney, MT. Reilly of the Crasho A. C., MT. NcCue of the Walnut IA. c. and Alderman Alfred w. Burdick urged that the board grant the appropriation asked by the Board of Recreation for the building of three gymnasiums at a total cost of ss6. 6.oo0.
 In urging that the board appropri- ate the necessary funds, Alderman n Burdick said:
 At the present time the city is without single place where indoor sports can be staged on an extensive scale. That there is a real demand for such places was shown last Sun day, when delegates from g athletic clubs representing 1,SO0 members, rep resentatives from six of the largest factories and five of the big stores endorsed the Board of Recreation's plans for three simple gymnasiums."

Matchmaker Dan Hatfield of East End A. c. picked a tough opponent for Bogash when he selected Cline but Bogash isn't sidesteppfng the hard ones. Cline is much more experienced than Bogash. The New Yorker knows a lot about ring generalship and may outpoint the local boy in that re- spect. Bogash is always dangerous, however, because of his wicked wal lop. This bout is scheduled to go 12 rounds.
 In the semi final Sapper Cohen of this city will clash with Mickey Tray CTS of this city. Both boys have ap peared at numerous smokers before local clubs and have made good. Travers is always well supported by ! the cheering delegations from the Italian clubs. Another good bout will have Teddy Fabryck of Fairfield and Young Angelo of Stamford as principals. There will be other good bouts and altogether it looks like a strong card.

man, Fletcher, Doyle or Chase in the infield that cracked last August.
 There will be walls of disgust if this proves to be the case, for with the fine array of outfe1ders the Giants have, the strength in catching, and the five great pitchers that head the hurling corps, the fans have been counting on some added strength in the inf1eld to make the 1920 pennant a strong possibility.
 If he stands pat Me 'Graw will start the season with these men:
 Outfielders - Burns, Kauff, Young, Staatz, King and Bowen.
 1nfielders - Fletcher, Chase, Doyle, Zimmerman, Jimmy Smith. Frisch, Cooney and Kelly. Catchers- McCarty, Shy der, Earl Smith. Pitchers - Barnes, Benton, Dou- glas, Nehf, Toney, Ryan, Hubbeu. Winters and Shower. It may be, however, that McGraw has deputed Stoneham to be the trade maker at Chicago. If such is the case, 1 let's see what kind of a David Harum the new president is.

Deny POtteiger Is
 To Join Hartford
Worcester Club Owner Says He Made No Deal With Clarkin-Latter Indignant and Will Fight Case
 Player Wanted By St. Louis Browns

other heavy-hitting and speedy out f1elders in view, he looked with de- cided favor upon Potteiger, who would round out as fast and as heavy a hitting outfeId as the East ern League has ever boasted. AL though one of those temperamentaI players, Potteiger is always in the game from start to finish and his fielding and batting last year was one of the features of the campaign He has become dissatisfied with Wor- cester, however, and McMahon ad- mits that change in pastures might do the ball player more good than to continue playing him with the Boosters.
 According to Mack the St. Louis Browns are after P0tteiger and the chances of a deal going through whereby Potteiger will become the property of that club are considered bright by the Worcester moguls. The alleged trade with Clarkin, however, is liable to present a stumbling block to this deal, as the local magnate does not intend to let Potteiger slip through his fingers without a fight Clarkin Is just as strong in his de- clarations that McMahon traded Pot teiger to him for Mcclellan as Mo Mahon is in his denials that any such deal was made and, though there was nothing in black and white to bind the deal, C1arkin says that McMahon gave him his word on the matter and he considered that sufficient.
 The deal, according to the local baseball heads, was made on the train as the Eastern League moguls were on their way to New Haven to attend the meeting of the cjrcuif Last nop+J Clarkin, McMahOn, Edward F. Smith also of the Worcester club, "BiH" Carey of Springfield and Dan ONeil, president of the League, were having a fve-cornered chat at the time and Clark1n and McNahon were seen 'confabin" together for several min utes. Clarkin claims that, during the "confab'', McMahon told him to go get Potteiger and that he would take Mcclellan in exchange. That was enough for the local magnate and he announced the trade after the mo- guls of the circuit had completed their session. McMahon did not deny the trade at the time and, Dan How ley imm ediately began his efforts to sign the outfelder up with the local club To date he has not been sue cessful but Potteiger has told the To- cal manager that he will not play with Worcester the coming season | and Howley has not given up hopes of signing him for the Senators.
