If RALPH SINNERS DELIVERS
MGRAW'S CLUB WILL HOLD UP;
. OTHERWISE GROH DEAL is BLOW
BY DAVID J. WALSH,
/. n. s. Sporting Editor


SAN ANTONIO, Texas. March
25.-Belng OF legal age and sound
mind. we have exercised the pre-
rogatiye Of drawing up a last will
and testament before picking
flaws In n worlds championship
club. strengthened indubitably by
n midwinter trade and ostensibly
by the subsequent addition of a
young outfielder who seemingly
plays ball as to the manner born.
There Is no question whatever
that the acquisition of Heinle
Groh has given the New York
Giants the best infield in base
bali.
But TO swing the Groh deal.
McGraw was constrained to part
company with George Burns. still
fine outf!elder. hitter and base
runner. He needed man to
range in between Irish" Meusel
and Ross Young in the outfield.
so he thrust n cropping hand into
the American association grab
bag and came up with Ralph
SINNERS Of the indianapolis club.
Ralph is the dark person IN
Mr.. McGraw's woodpile. II he
makes the rifle, all will be well.
If not, II will be up to Bin Cum
nlngham, and Bill has yet to
prove that he can play major
league baseball through full
campaign
McGraw himself is reticent
about SINNERS. lie admits that
SINNERS looks the part OF n great
ball player, but he reserves judg-
ment on the question OF whether
he will start the season with the
young man in center field.
The pitching staff looks like n
great one, with Nehf, Douglas and
Barnes pitching wonderful ball in
the last worlds series, but It re-
mains to be seen whether the vet
Grams will repeat.
The recruit pitchers are COM
mendably higt class. Virgil
Barnes. brother OF Jess. Is up for
a third trial, and probably will
stick. so will Claude Jonnard, n
right -hander from Little Rock,
with fast ball and one eye. Also
there Is Ryan, Causey and Shea
from last years second string.
McGraw expects to come up with
at least two dependable pitchers
from this array.
Among the young catchers,
Frank Samide conducts himself
after the manner OF a ball player

OKLAHOMA CITY, March 25.-
The l0-round bout scheduled here for
April between Warnie Smith OF
Tulsa and Ray Long OF Oklahoma
City has been Cancelled, Secretary
Hutchinson OF the Oklahoma Ath-
letic club announced tonight. Dis
Covery that Longs hand, badly
bruised six weeks ago, was healing
slowly, was responsible for the ac-
tion, Hutchinson said.
Louis Newman, manager OF smith,
laughed Saturday night when in
formed OF HutChinsons announce
ment He said the match never had
been made, and he therefore couldn't
see how II could be Cancelled"
Newman said Hutchinson tried TO
get him to sign for the bout but he
declined because he didn't Nant
Warnie TO box again after the
padgett bout before meeting Dave
Shade on April IA, as he needs TO
train carefully.

for q fighter. Just like one bad race
for thoroughbred" said Newman,
who declares he In far from disap-
pointed In Warnie's showing to date.
Throw out Warnie's bad fight with
Cowboy Padgett, and he has a most
remarkable record. Five months
ago he'd have been glad for $50 for
fighting preliminary, Now he
can earn $500 for 12-round
fight. ! believe Warnie Is the real
goods, and that he will put up the
best fight OF his career the next
time he gets IN the ring. He now
knows that he can't win by reputa-
ton; that there are other boys his
size who are just as tough and hit
just as hard as he does; that a man
doesn't necessarily go down and out
when he hits him on sthe chin. II
was a costly but "a mighty valuable
lesson for him"
