scribes found the going smooth at Camp
Carpenter Thursday. Francois Des-
camps, astute manager of the French
hope, appeared in shirt sleeves and wear
ing a sport cap and his first smile OF
the training season. 1t may have been
the weather or an especially good dinner,
but whatever the cause, the dapper man

Georges and an interpreter with MIN, for

Manager Francois opened verbal hos
tilities with the announcement that
Georges had attained the greatest weight

to have more color, his eyes were bright
and danced with fun and he appeared to
be less nervous and more at his ease be-

REASONS FOR
Lands RULING

CHICAGO, June 10-Heinie Groh was
placed on the ineligible list for failure
to report to Cincinnati within ten days
after the season opened. He was hold
out. Later he signed and made appli-
cation for reinstatement. 1t was made
known that Groh wanted to be reinstaled
so as he could be traded and it was
all set for him to go to the Giants.
Regarding this, Judge Lands, in an
nouncing his decision last night, com
mented as follows:
"Of course, this arrangement cannot
be carried out. The suggestion that by
the hOld-out process q situation may be
created, disqualifying a player from CIV
ing his best service to a public that for
years has generously supported that
player and his team, is an idea that will
receive no hospitality here It is at war
with the A-B-Cs of sportsmanship and
impugns the integrity of the game itself.
I'm view Of these considerations, the
force Of which the commissioner must
assume, will, on reflection, be perfectly
apparent to the parties, the application
Tor reinstatement is granted, on the ex-
press condition, however, that Groh joins
the Cincinnati team Immediately and re-
mains with 1t throughout the 1921 sea
son.

same team, there viii be 10 penalty
imposed beyond the loss of his salary

violated was adopted after the opening
of the present season. However, this is
not TO be regarded as establishing a
precedent for cases arising hereafter"

OF rolls and coffee for the more sub
stantiaI American style of fruit, ham
and eggs, cereal, rolls, jam and coffee.
Francois insisted that Georges eat jam
and there was none to say him nay.
In fact, there is none TO say anything
contrary to what Manager Descamps says
Georges is doing in secret. But it is Ger
tain that he has not attained such splen-
did condition without work, and lots
Of 1t.
Though Thursday was open-house day
at the camp Georges did no boxing. He
went into the gym for a few minutes

with that Of many an American
amateur.
STRONG WITH
THE WOMEN.
When he hoped into the open ring
for some slow shadow boxing he re-
Tealed a back and chest turning a bright
red from the sun. He followed the
shadow boxing with setting-up exercises,
more slamming at an imaginary foe, ana
then showed some fast and classy rope
skipping. The fanettes present enjoyed
this He looks just too sweet for words,
said one Of them
He may have appeared sweet to the
women present, but his midsectiOn didn't
look strong enough to the men on hand.
It was generally admitted that his stOm-
ach was a little too ladylike to stand
the terrific left hooks that Dempsey VIII
Re trying to send in there
Scribes have watched Dempsey's foot
work for nearly three weeks and after
giving Georges the Once-Over Thursday
this Impression is formed:
There is little difference, II any, In
their speed. Both have almost perfect
wind and either could step into the
ring in three days.
Their fight may furnish one of The
biggest surprises in the ring history, but
any one inclined to wager on the result
should bear in mind that Dempsey Will
be twenty pounds heavier; that he is the
hardest puncher in ring history; that
be is just about as clever as Carpenter
and that he carries that indefnable edge
with being champion.

Ruling.
BY HENRY FARRELL,
United Press Sports Editor.

NEW YORK, June lots a good
thing Judge Lands has a long time con-
tract at the head of baseball's machine
A few more moves like he made in the
Groh case last night and the magnates
would be tagging him for the ash can.
The high commissioner of the game
took an awful wallOp at the Giants, the
strongest power in the National League,
when he decided that Heinie Groh must
play the season out with the Reds if he
is to play at all
The Giants had a locker ready in the
clubhouse for the holdout player of the
Reds who was to be traded for Rapp,
Kaun and Barnes. A large bundle of
cash, with which the New York club is
plentifully supplied, was to go along to
Garry Hermann would suffer in being
man.
The move of Lands is a direct shot at
commerciaism, one Of the real evils of
the game. The Giants could deny pen
nant buying till the cows some home.
but nevertheless, they would have been
doing virtually that thing if they Sc
cured Groh
The Pittsburgh Pirates, with a home
made team that is making a brave fight
for the pennant, has the sympathy of the
fans. The move made by Judge Lands
in blocking a deal that would almost
give the pennant to New York the day
the trade was completed will be jOyfully
received by every one but John McGraw
and Garry Hermann.
1t is a stroke Of good baseball It will
go to produce tighter race in the Ma
tional League and give some of the clubs
who lack the cash in the New York cof
fers, a chance.

Cavet, Tribe pitching ace, was ready to
step out after another victory, though
this assignment was not positive, for
