TWO MORE DODGERS IN
BY DANIEL.

Benny Kauff has signed with the
Giants for the coming season. and 1t
looks as If he has come back to New
Yerls to stay. The outfielder's contract
arrived at the offices of the club yes
terday from Lancaster, Ohio. where he
is spending the winter. The signed con-
tract of Jess Winters. the right handler.
also was in Joe O'Brien's mail.
Kat IF. 1t will be remembered, spent
good part OF last season with Toronto
of the International League, where he
was sent in trade for Vernon Spencer.
He was recalled in September. 1t viii
be remembered, too. that kauft's going
out of the league created no end of sur
prise. but 1t was determined later that
the shift to the International was only
temporary and was in the nature of a
disciplinary measure. Kauff was indis-
Greet in his selection of off season COM
panions last winter and got himself into
quito a jam.
However, all that Is past. The action
against Benny has been dropped. and
John McGraw is convinced that the out
fielder is innocent. Accordingly kauff
has been received back into the fold
and will make a fight to retain the
centre field berth against right handed
pitchers. Lee King no doubt will con-
tinue to play the position when the op-
position hurting is of southpaw persua-
sion.
Neither Rival Formidable
When Kauff arrives at San Antonio
he will find two young men after his
1ob-Spencer and Curtis Walker, the re-
oriit from ArlelIsta of the Sally, both
OF whom. like Benny, are left handed
hitters. However. 1t is not likely that
he will have to entertain great fears
for his Job, as Spencer last season dem
onstrated that he is not quite ready for
major league duty and Walker never
has been higher than Glass G COM
pany.
McGraw still is on the hunt for an
other centre fielder, but his efforts do
not seen to lead him anywhere. It
would not be telling q club secret to
state that he is ready to trade Kauff.
lie would like to land Max Carey of the
Pirates. and it may be that before the
season is opened the best base stealcr
in the league will be enrolled with the
New York But the chance Is slim.
The Pirates need another catcher. and
they might take Gonzales, in addition
to Kauff. 1t is a question whether the
Cuban would accept transfer to Pitts
burg He cannot be sent where he does
not want to go--not until his three year
contract expires next fall.
Winters recently had a close call from
n transfer to Milwaukee, but not MANY
days after the announcement Of the re-
lease came an order from McGraw 20
cancel it and to send Winters word to
report at San Antonio.
