Old Sports $ Say-So

and Jones and 1nfielder Scott to the Yankees in return for one star Roger Peckinpaugh-and a wad of coin- Later Frazee appeased the fans by cooking up a second deal with Connie Mack and Clark Griffit h whereby Crit. sent O'Rourke to the Sox and Connie gave Frazee Joe Du- gan. Grif sent Bing Miller and Jose Acosta to the Athletics and Frazee capped the deal by sending Roger to the Nats.
 The Red Sox fans had reason to believe that Dugan. contented with his new berth. would immediately be- come a star and show them some classy ball.
 Now that hope is shattered
 A glance over the list of heavy weights now seeking chances to swap punches with most anybody reveals the fact that of the long list of men over whose inert bodies Jack Demp- sey climbed to fame in 1918 only two are still at all prominent and busy in the ring. These two are Bill Bren- nan and Billy Miske.. And neither of these can ever hope to get revenge for what Jack did to xhan.

they had retained from past years.
 With regard to the lineup which appeared in the Waterbury papers, Halloran admitted that it was he who gave it to the Waterbury manager and that it was also made up mostly of fictitious names. Though 1t seemed evident that these names had been so cam ouf1aged as to insinuate that their owners were Fordham regulars, as really did happen, Hal1oran denied that such had been his intentions.
 It will take a lot more than mere words, however, to suitably explain the similarity between such names as Donohue andNDonovan, Cassano and Cousineau, Shanks and Shanksby. Madden and Malley.
 Halloran was a a loss to account for the reports of the game in some New York morning newspapers on Monday, which had in the box score not the names that appeared in the Waterbury papers. but(the names of eight men at present regular players on the Fordham varsity nine. who have since sworn to an affidavit that they did not play.

Four Straight For
 StratfOrd Stars

Defeating the North avenue of Stratford g to last Sunday the Strat- ford All Stars chalked their fourth straight victory of the season. The game was a hummer from start to finish, with many features. The in field was changed by placing kop- sick at second and Christian, a new man, at first. Christian showed pret- ty well until he had to be taken out, on account of a broken finger.
 Coming to the bat in their half of the ninth the Alll Stars were two runs behind but with the excellent batting put across three runs, thereby vim ing the game. Smith drove in two men in the final canlto, with a two bagger. This Sunday they will play the Colo nials at Paradise Green, and expect to make it five straight.
 The All Stars challenge any 14 to 16 year old teams in the city for games. They would like to book games ahead and many dates are open. Any body wanting games call Noble o70 any noontime and ask for Babey.

Garyan M Waterbury To-day Probing FOrdham s" Gdnae


 Frank Gargan, graduate manager of athletics at Fordham University, is in Waterbury today Investigating the "Fordham'' Waterbury game of last Sunday, which has stirred up a big fuss in Fordham sport circles.
 Gargan is leaving nothing ,undone to get at the bottom of the affair and no effort will be made to spare any body involved who may be guilty. In this the graduate manager has the backing of the university officials.
 Halloran, rightfelder of the 'tColle- gians" and a former Maroon football and baseball player, called at the uni versity office yesterday and told his side of the story to Gargan and the members of the advisory athletic com mittee.
 HalIoran emphatica11y denied that any man at present or at any time in this season @ member of the Maroon nine took part in the game. He said, however, that he and three for mer Fordham players-Bin Mo Laughlin, Tommy Fallon and Frank Marnell- in the game. These men wore Fordham uniforms, which

Many Candidates
 For Umpires' Jobs

It's a little early yet for the East ern League to name its staff of um- pires for the season although every Glass ZZ league has done 1t several weeks ago. ..
 Nine or ten men are to be picked. eight of whom will be regulars. With Kitty Bransfield out of the league serving as scout for the Cubs. the league will have to name a suc- cessor who will measure somewhere near the standard set by the we'll known Kitty
 No doubt Umpire Frank Brown will be back in the circuit again, a1- though he should be getting a trial in some higher classification. With him will probably be Pete" Mo Loughhn. '-Cy'' Mcdonald, s-Mutt'' Waters. Jack Kelly and perhaps Allie Kuhn or Jack Hannifan.
 Candidates for jobs are Eddie Hart of Waterbury and Frank Fitzpatrick. Dousherty of Meriden, Lou Dewey of this city and several others. What the chances of these men are isn't known for Dan O'Neil never talks for publication. It was rumored around yesterday that Eddie Hart had lost his fight for a berth although this couldn't be confirmed. It is known that Jack Hoey, old Connecticut league; sought a job, but he was promptly crowded out.

West Looks Good Bet For Net Title

New York. April 19-The east, with five of the six leading candidates for the Davis Cup team. is more prepon- derant the court this year than at any time perhaps in the last de cade.
 The west still has William M. John ston and, while Little Bill' said last season was his last in international tennis, it is believed he will be on hand when the United States rallies its forces to the defense of the his toric tennis trophy.
 With William T. Tilden and Vincent Richards Johnston undoubtedly will form the main bulwark in meeting the foreign invasion. If this trio should need any support the east also can muster three first rank contend ers-the veterans, Watson M. Wash burn and R. Norris Williams, and a comparatively newcomer. Lawrence Roberts who is the most sensational racquet wielder to reach the cham pionShfp circles.

 And in Hager, a full-swinging bat- smith who smashes the ball with ter~ rific force. the Senators possess a bat CT who will grow to a mountainous size with men on the sacks and a man or two needed to settle the issue.
 The far-faned Southern hospitality has apparently been pushed into the background by the baseball athletes representing the various colleges that have entertained the Yale and Trinity hines during their invastons of that section of this country.
 Both of the Nutmeg teams have been greeted with anything but consideration while on the Southern fields. They have been received and trimmed with regularity. the local col- 1ege boys being made the goats of two particularly bad beatings.

 Worcester Grounds Situation.
 The Worcester baseball park s1tua- ton is causing considerable worry to the other clubs in the Eastern League and also the schedule makers. Wor- oester will start playing its scheduled games in the Eastern League on the road, if Owner Jack Mack is unable to renew his lease on Boulevard Park, according to a decision at the special meeting of the circuit moguls. offers for the franchise and the Wor- cester officials will inquire into possi- bilities.
 Two Cities Eliminated.
 Providence and Holyoke appear to be definitely eliminated from the prospects for this season at least. Holyoke has no enclosed field and could not be prepared soon enough. and Providence has long argued against Eastern League baseball, haV- ing entertained the class Double A brand in years gone by.
 From the list mentioned at today 8 meeting. Portland. Fitchburg, Troy and Poughk eepsie have the call. En- trance of the New York State cities into the battle for an Eastern League franchise was unheralded, but oppor- tunities as pictured by those who know the cities to the west have stirred the magnates.

 Portland Considered.
 Portland is recognized as worth while spot for the wandering fran caise, but is so far from the other cities in the league that expenses would pile up.
 Mack however, has decided to wait for a time and try playing road sched- ule, which will mean that he will have some home games on every other park in the wheel. The mag mates believe that a proper division of spells can be decided upon.
