McCan Runs Out Of Fl Paso Bout
 With Billy Alger

Billy McCann added another to his list of fights that failed to material ize when he called off his Fl Paso scrap with Billy Alger.
 The Fl Paso Times carries the following on McCann's latest adven- ture in .'runout land:
 By JIM BRANN
 Billy McCann, Cleveland light weight with the prima donna tenn perament has finished himself as far as 8 bout in this vicinity Is con- cerned. McCann took "runout powder on Billy Alger in a telegram to Jim Erwin last night. Evidently NcCann had heard something of AL gers prowess and did not care to take him on.
 As a usual thing when a boxer is losing he grasps the opportunity for big fight. McCann evidently is not that sort. Although he has not attained marked success in the fou1 round game in his last two fights on the Pacific coast, the last one two days ago. McCann has made all sorts of demands to appear here. The Fort Bliss management has met each o1 these demands. some of them unrea- sonable. Having nothing else he could ask for to hinder the match McCann simply wired that he would not appear. In doing so he broke l his wired agreement. Since his agreement has been shown to be un- reliable no club in the vicinity oi Fl Paso will again take chance or | McCann.
 Immediately after receipt of Me l Cann's wire Matchmaker Jim ErwiI began burning up the wires, east west and north, to secure a boy t l take McCann's place on the Thanks giving eve card. Late last night h. was awaiting reply from three higf

Giants and White Sox will tour the South next spring. For years Comis- key has opposed the inter-league eX- hibition games, on the theory that it deadened the interest in the opening weeks of the championship race. The two teams will train in Texas, only thirty-five miles apart. They will stage a series through the south, ending with Saturday and Sunday games at the Polo Grounds.
 
 The Yankee management feels cer- tain that the veteran Frank Baker can't go on for many more years at third. And for that reason a prom ising third sacker would be well come addition to the ranks. It is said that scout Bob Connery believes Pinelli. who had a trial with Detroit,

the break in luck favored the Amer ican League team. Willingness on the part of the Yankee players to take chance assisted greatly in getting the break The theft of home by Mike McNally in the first game, and a repetition of the play by Bob Meusel in the second contest are two examples. Successful steals of home are something of rarity in world series games.
 In the third game. the Yankees with a three-run lead overpressed their advantage, and really caused the break of the game to revert back to the Giants. With three runs over the plate, and runners on first and third, no one out, and three balls and one strike on the batter, the run ner on first for some reason essayed a steal of second.
 That runner was Babe Ruth. He was an easy out. Bob Meusel walked on the next ball. Had not Ruth tried to steal. the bases would have been filled and no one out. There is no telling how many runs the Yankees would have made. That play stead- jed Barnes, and he retired the side with only one more run crossing the plate That play was the turning point in the series The Giants dld come back in the third game, but in reality that play brought them back
 In the recent football game be- tween Penn State and Georgia Tech the southerners scored the first touchdown of the game in a most i'm pressive fashion. Georgia seemed tc outclass Penn. That score may have made the Georgia team careless Anyway. on the kickoff after the touchdown, Killinger of Penn State ran the ball back 95 yards for :

actor Babe would continue to be a star ball player.N Ruth gives very creditable performance. He seems perfectly at home on the stage. In fact. he acted much more comfortable than he did when facing the Giants pitchers in the world series. He sings a little. John Mccormack need not be uneasy about Babes singing. He tells a few good jokes. Does a mind reading stunt that is unique, and conducts himself as if acting was as easy as hitting home runs.
 Ruth isn't worried about what ac- tion Judge Landis takes in his case. He admits that he pulled a bone, but feels sure it will react to the benefit of the players. Some one had to make a test case of an unfair rule, is the way he put it. Babe doesn't take kindly to some of the critics who insist he should have the electric chair because he simply violated what all admit is a bad rule.
 ''Whatever the judge does. suits me-" says Babe. "A two-weeks or even longer suspension for me in the spring wouldn't weaken the Yankees. I never go very good during the first month of the race"
 Will Miller Huggins manage the Yankees again next season? Ordi- narily that would be foolish ques-
 tion, since Huggins did all that any manager is expected to do, win the
 pennant Despite his success there l is an undercurrent which is working 1 for his removal.
