OLD CRAvESEND
 RACETRACK IS
 SOLD FOR LOTS

New York, March 31-The old Gravesend racetrack will be dis mant1ed within a few weeks. The property was sold yesterday to w. E. Harman, who notified Jimmy Fitz- simmons and other trainers who have stables at the historic course that they must vacate at once. The prop erty will be cut up into building lots.
 The Gravesend track years ago was known as the Prospect Fair grounds In the early eighties Mike and Phil Dwyer, John Mccarthy, Hyde and Behman and James Shevlin secured the property and it became one ot the leading race tracks in the coun- try.
 It was at Gravesend that the first Brooklyn Handicap, known as the leading classic of the turf in this country, was first run in 1887. James Shevlin, the only surviving member of the old Brooklyn Jockey Club, was present at the sale yesterday. The property contains go acres an6 brought $75, 600 an acre

PRATT IS ALL
 THROUGH AS ONE OF N Y. INFIELD

New York, March 31-It is appar- ent that the Yankee manager has reached the conclusion that Meusel fits better at third base than in the outfieid. Whether or not he will start the season at the final turn de- bends on the decision which Frank Baker makes in regard to joining the New York club. Bakers answer is supposed to be en route from Trappe to Jacksonville, and it is still a mystery. At any rate, Higgins is grooming his new slugger from the Pacific coast as a regular if Baker does not join, and understudy if the Trappe mauler makes his appearance
 Higgins made the positive an, nouncement this evening that a young player will be found at second base when the Yankees take the field al the start of the coming pennant chase. He declined to go any further. IL is evident that Derril1 Pratts days as a regular with the Yankees are ended, and the post may fall to Few ster if he is ready to play on April IA. Otherwise Aaron Ward or Meu- seI may get the job.

GIANTS YOUNG
 PITCHERS FOOL
 RED SOx TEAM

Greenvil1e, Miss, March 31 - The series of exhibition games between the New York Giants and the Boston Red Sox reached a point here yeSter- day where Manager John McGraw felt it was no longer necessary to take it too seriously That is, he felt that it was not necessary to put in his full strength to curb the one-tme world beaters, so he used two of his young pitchers, but the Giants won quite as handily as ever. They swung their bats Justly, and came out of the con- test with the score 8 to 2 in their favor.
 GreenviNe did not seem to get highly excited about the game, aI- though the big league clubs do not al- ways favor this town in the spring with their exhibitions The local pop ulace was busy in a number of en- deavors, and did not break any records for attendance. However, those who did see the game had plenty of thrills, for it was a game of free hitting, mostly on the part of the Giants, who gathered Il hits, against | four for their rivals McGraw entrusted the pitching to ] Hubbel1 at the start and this young | ster worked five innings, allowed the  | only runs that the Boston club scored | These came in the second and third innings. Alter that he gave them nc l chance to encroach upon the plate He allowed but two hits during his stay in the box but it happened thai | both of these were delivered at op portune times. Winters, who reliev.
 ed him and finished the game, allow.
 ed only two hits and held the Red So1
 scoreaeSs.
 ! Ho1brow, who started for the Ret
 Sox, was scored on in the first inning
 but pitched fairly steady bah for hi
 five innings and allowed three runs t,
 be chalked up. Leasure. who relievet
 him, was greeted with flock of run
 in the sixth frame, when the Giant
 rang up four tallies on him before h l could get the side out. Manager Bar
 row allowed him to go through to tn l end.

JACK JOHNSON
 MAY MEET SAM
 LANGFORD SOON

Jack Johnson, who now is in Tia Juana, preparing for a, series of bouts to be held there, declares that he will take on both Sam Langford and Harry Wills in the near future. Early in his career Johnson scratch ed Langford's name off his books after Iangford, then little more than a welterweight, had floored him for a long count While. Johnson was chas- ing Tommy Burns for a crack at the title, Langford was chasing Johnson with equal industry.
 Johnson followed Burns to Eng land, and Langford followed Josnson. A match between the two blacks was arranged in London, but Johnson ran out, skipping to Australia After Johnson had won the title he drew the color line on all his dark-skinned opponents.
 Ring followers always were inten- se1y curious to find out whether Langford really could have beaten Johnson. Both now are down and out, but if they meet the battle may indicate what would have happened when both were good.

In anticipation of Carpen- tiers acceptance Of the invitation Promoter Dave Mackay has arranged for the installation of a special ring side box for Carpenter, his manager Francois Descamps, and a party Of friends.
 It is possible that Carpenter will be invited to referee one of the heavyweight bouts.

 This is the era of the stcome-back in sport circles. Come-backs and some bingling attempts to achieve this athletic phenomenon. Although we've reached but the third inning of this years game with Father Time there have been more successful and unsuccessful comeback efforts in the sphere of sports than usually occurs in a whole year.
 There is the case of Georges Car pentier, our distinguished visitor. After four years of wars hardshipS it was believed that Carpenters rinG form and the essential vitality had vanished forever. A disappointing ex- hibition with Dick Smith the English man seemed to corroborate the inn precision. Then came Carpentier's S quick knockout of the highly touted Beckett, the English champion, which electrified the sport world. To- day he is the athletic lion of the hour in our own country and on the turn pike to greet riches and a, battle with Jack Dem psey for the worlds heavy weight title.

 Players Get Coin
New York Club Owners Disguised With Greedy Attitude of Men, But Compromise By Paying $920
 From Own Pockets

Jacksonville, Fla, March s1.---The differences between Miller Haggfns manager of the Yankees and his team over the division of the third place money won in last years pen nant race, and which threatened to cause "strdaze'' of the players be- fore Mondays big double header, were settled yesterday afternoon by Cols. Ruppert and Huston
 The players, that is, the regulars who won the games which entitled the club to third place, objected to the managers apportionpaent of the $13, ,277 into 29 shares in which Russell and McGraw pitchers, who went to the Red Sox in the Mays deaas the clubs ground keeper trainer and the road secretary participated. They ar sued for division into 25 shares and were very naach wrought up when they received only S457.S5 apiece a few weeks ago,
 The ColonelS reversed the Huggsns decision yesterday as to the three shares for the clubhouse employees but refused to give up on the Russell and McGraw proposition; so the amo11sat of two f1al shares will be re- turned by the club owners to the players and again divided by those players into a4 parts, giving eanh maz, $3S15 additional
 By this method of giving up $S15.7 worth of 'sa5ve'' the doughty CoEo- nels satisfied their players. BHggins is satisfied, too, for he finally agreed with the men that they had a just cause of co1npIaint and pleaded their case before his employers.

GIVE
 YALEBALLTEAM
 GREAT SENDOFF

New Haven, March 31-Any law abiding citizen of New Haven who happened to be near the center last night shortly after ' o'clock was re-
 minded of old times in up to date style. Over 2.G00 wiId-eyed, cheering students, carrying out the famous snake dance and all its accessories. was the cause of many strained neckS and looks of amazement at said hour.
 The departure of the Yale baseball team, starting on its Southern trip, was the cause of the outbreak, and it did the hearts of local Yale grads good to watch the proceedings. It was a typical demonstrat ton of Yale spirit and with such a rouSing send-om the team is almost certain of success on the trip. The crowd formed on the campus, or wherever they could catch
 the procession, and went down to the railroad station. At the head of the column was the entire baseball squad, 24 strong, all bedecked with radiant smiles and confident as peacocks.
 When the assemb1age arrived at the
 station the members of the team boarded their special car attached to tn $50 train for New York The demonstration was so magnitudinal l that Coach Billy Lauder and Captain Sawyer were compelled to make | speeches from the rear end of the car. | Both men spoke in high spirits and
 were roundly appIauded for their | words by the bowling mob in wild gestures and free speech The indi- l vidua1 members of the team were l cheered and the team as a whole was given an ovation, but the crowd was
 destined to disappointment, for just
 as the final echoes of the vocal out 1 bursts died out the train pulled out.

Jud, looking the pie ture of health, pitched right into the job of getting together a champion ship ball team and got as busy as a bee, looking over the contracts prepa- ratory to sending them out again.

Ryan Appears Like Wonder For Giants McGraw Thinks He Has Discovered Star Hurler Tn Former Holy Cross Player and Will Retain
 Him On Regular Staff

Greenviue, Miss, March 31.---On the way to this city from Mobile the chief topic of conversation among the Giants was the splendid work of Bill Ryan, the big right handler, against the Red Sox in the closing four in nings Monday. Ryan not only held the Bostons without hit or run, but he showed so much stuff that even John McGraw found reason to go into ecstacies over the young pitcher.
 Ryan came to the Giants in mid season in 1918, from Holy Cross Col lege, and was with the club for the rest of that year. Last. summer he was sent to Buffalo to gain experi- ence, and he responded in splendid fashion. Now Ryan is intrenched among the first squad of pitchers.
 William K1em, the umpire, is the strongest booster for Ryan K1em was behind the bat and had a fine chance to see just what the young
 man had on the ball After the game Klem said: 'Ryan is the finest young pitcher ever saw work in the spring. He had a, world of speed and he had something on every ball he pitched. When he came into the box in the sixth inning he pitched a beauty to Heudryx and the Boston outfelder was surprised. He com | plained to me that Ryan had used a freak delivery, that he had rubbed
 the ball and made it sail. I told Hen dryx that he was mistaken, but at l the same time I threw the ball out of the game. Ryan then took a new ball
 and made it behave just as he had 1 made the first ball act Then Hen dryx had to confess that Ryan had something on that leather. He should
 make a great pitcher this very sum mer."
 Frank Snyder, who caught Ryan's 1 delivery, said everything which Klem
 had said, and added a bit '@The Red l Sox could do nothing with him, and l there was no reason why they should have done anything. Those boys have
 no license to hit any of our good
 pitchers, and it seems as if we have
 quite number of good ones this
 year."

Giants New Mascot
 Is Mexican Wildcat

The Giants have a new mascot, one such as few ball clubs ever have had. The supposed omen of good luck now feeding at the expense of the club is Pennant, a six months old wildcat which was basged in Mexico when only a few days old
 Pennant was the gift of a San An tonic business man to John McGraw. He is as playful as a kitten and al- ready has endeared himself to the players. The Giant leader also re- ceived a silver loving cup recently, as another token of esteem from his admirers in the Alamo town.
