Champion Soutar
Assumes Big Lead
For Racquet Title

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. Jock Sou
tar, Of the Philadelphia Racquet Club,
Worlds Squash Racquet Champion.
won the first of a series of two
matches to-day from Otto Glocker, of
Boston, for the American and Cana
dian titles by the scores of 15-11,
15--11, 15-11.
The play was fast and spirited, and
at several stages of the match Glocker
showed brilliant form, but lacked the
reserve necessary to win.
In the first game Soutar quickly
took the lead, registering several we'll
placed shots. He opened his service
with bewildering attack, which kept
Glocker on the jump at all times The
Bostonian fought gamely, but his best
efforts proved unavailing and he was
forced to concede the game to the title.
holder, 15-11.
The next two matches were a repe-
tition Of the first, Soutar was called
upon to show the best in him, for
Glocker fought hard until the end. In
the last game the Bostonian's play was
particularly impressive. His speed and
shots were nothing short of spectacu-
lar. However. he was finally forced to
give way on account of the all around
work of Soutar, who won by senss-
tional spurt
Five games are scheduled to take
place in Boston next Saturday. Both
the American and Canadian titles will
go to the player winning the greatest
number of games. In the event Of
each winning five games the cham
pionships will be divided by the num-
Der of points scored.

Ball Makes Public
.JohnsOn's Letter
On Yankee Stand

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 7.-President Phil
Ball of the st. Louis Americans al
lowed letter from President Ban
johnson Of the American League to
be made public here to-day, which, he
claims, throws an entirely different
light on the excerpt of the letter which
the New York American League club
owners have mentioned in their petit
ton charging Johnson with conspiring
to run them out of baseball.
johnson, in this letter, after telling
OF his return from New York, says:
"When it became apparent to them
that would not devlate from my
position (relative to the Mays case)
they declared the stock of the New
York club was. for sale and l could
have it on five minutes notice for
100000.
"In the course of my conversation
with the gentlemen, Rupert an
nounced on Saturday they had re-
Sceived peremptory notice signed
by Stoneham, McGraw and McQuade,
telling them they could vacate the
Polo Grounds and that they had no
desire to renew the lease This was
a startling disclosure and indicated
they were forced into position
where they would be required to
build. They both asserted, how
ever, they would not advance the
necessary capital for a ball plant.
The insisted it was quite desirous
the franchise be taken off their
hands. The following day they
'buckled up on the offer they made
me and said they were going to re-
main in baseball. 1t is my Judgment
they should be retired from our or
ganization. We all appreviate how
impossible they are. :"
Ball, in making public the letter to-
day, said the subject matter which
preceded the excerpt quoted in court
showed that there was no conspiracy,
but purely notice that the club was
probably for sale and advised that it
be purchased.

Lapp, Onetime
Star Big League
Catcher, Dies

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. Jack Lapp.
former star catcher of the PHILADELPHIA
Athletics, died of pneumonia last night.
He was thirty-fve years old.
Lapp first gained national recogni-
tion in 1910. Paired off with Pitcher
Jack Coombs he performed splendidly
in the worlds series against the Chi
cago Cubs and aided materially in win
ming the championship for the Ath-
letics. He continued as a star through
the championship seasons of 1911, 1918
and 1914.
Along with the policy of building up
the club with young players Mack re-
leased Lapp to the Chicago White Sox
only 4 short time, being dropped on
account of i'll health. Lapp last season
managed semi-professional team here.

Former D!odger
Replaces Baker
At Third Base
Huggins Abapdons Hope of
Signing Home Run King
and Gets Boston Veteran

The New York American League
baseball club has acquired title to J.
Carlisle (Red) Smith, we'll known to
National League fans for more than a
half dozen years as third baseman with
the Brooklyn and Boston clubs. Man
ager Miller Higgins secured "Red" by
the waiver route, it was announced at
the Yankee Offices yesterday.
What disposition is to be made of
this veteran remains for Higgins to
determine, and the midget manager is
in Cincinnati. It is not believed, how
ever. that Higgins paid the $4,000
requisite just to pass Smith along to
some Of his friends in the minor
leagues. So, until the contrary de-
velops at least, it must be assumed
that the mite manager is laying plans
against the possible retirement of
]. Franklin Baker.
1t was presumed that Wilson
Fewster would be assigned to the third
base patrol if Baker failed to come in,
but Higgins has maintained steadily
that Fewster's proper sphere was cen
ter field. Miller declares Fewster be-
fore the end of another campaign
should rank among the three greatest
center felders Of all time.
Meusel Unknown Quantity
Meusel, who comes from the Pacific
Coast League so highly recommended,
has. played both in the outfield and at
third base. He is an unknown quantity
to Higgins, however. With veteran
like Smith to fall back upon Higgins
could very easily eliminate Fewster
from infield calculations. Fewster,
Lewis and Ruth would prove an ex-
cellentv trio if Fewster is all Higgins
claims. Certainly he would add that
element of speed so sadly lacking in
Yankee. outfelds of the past
"Rcd" Smith graduated to the
Dodgers back in 1911 after leading
the Southern Association batsmen, and
for many years was prime favorite
with Brooklyn fans. He slumped in
Braves.
That was the year Stallings per-
formed the miracle. But Smith did
throw the Athletics in four straight
games in that memorable worlds
series. On the eve of the classic
Smiths leg was broken. Deal, subbing
for him, was one of the sensations Of
the series. Smith played fine ball for
the Braves until 1918. He slumped
badly last season both in batting and
fielding. After Stallings acquired
Boeckel he attempted, with indifferent
success, to make an outfielder out of
Smith.
