M'GRAW TO SEARCH
FOR new BASEBALL
PLAYERS AT FARLEY
Giant Leader Is Expected TO
Get New Catchers and
Moundsmen.
BY DAVIS j. WALSH
(I. y. =. sports EditOr.)

NEW YORK. Dec. 2-On the as
sumption that John McGraw is not
given to casual and impromptu
journeys into the winterland for his
very good health, it . the common
belief that ne leaves tomorrow for
the annual meeting Of the minor
leagues in Louisville, Ky, with a
definite idea OF transacting business.
The report is common that Nc
Graw has one Of his famous deals
on.
Just where and from whom the
rumor originated is not MADE
known The gentleman himself
said yesterday that he was going TO
the meeting Just to look things
over"
on the surface Of things, the
trip OF McGraw and Jim Tierney
VIII result in a furry OF activity
second only to that Of last year
when He:ne Groh and Jimmy O'Con-
mel were purchased at ruinous
terms.
To Flash Check Books.
Check books are to be hourished
at a moments notice, regardless OF
the fact that the Giants are sitting
on top Of the world with a team that
has led the National League for
two consecutive seasons McGraw
wants 20 make il three in a row.
Financially, the coming season Is
considered an important one to
the Giants. The Yankees are TO
throw open their new stadium, seat
ing 10000. The competition for
New York's favor is going to be
keener than ever and the idea is
general that the team that produces
the winner will do the biggest bust
ness at the box office window.
Just what McGraw hopes TO do
at Louisville only he himself knows.
1t is possible, however that no
will attempt the precdrious bust
ness OF painting the lily. He has q
championship outfit now and well
ton Of affairs.
He will not disturb the so-called
million dollar inheld" of Kelly,
Frisch. Bancroft and GrOh, with
Rawlings for utility roles, nor can
ne be expected 10 cut loose from
Emil Meusel Ross Young, Cunning
ham, Stengel and the esteemed jim
my OCOnnell in the Outfield.
That narrows the issue down to
the batteries and here it IS no
Masonic secret that McGraw is not
satisfied. Frank Snyder VIII hang
on as first string catcher. barring
the unforeseen. but Earl Smith il is
believed. is due for other parts.
Nehf and Scott are the only pitch
ers sure OF their jobs, however.
Jess Barnes viii have 10 show
more than he ala through the regu-
lar season in 1929 10 remain on the
payroll, and If McGraw can swing
what he may deem 10 be an advan-
tageous deai, Jess may never sc,
the opportunity.
In any case McGraw Is not going
ali the way 10 Louisville Just for the
sake OF being among those present.

NOW PREPARING FOR

Coach Burnham Has Wealth
of Material With Which to
Build Up Strong Team.
BY JOIN G. Likely

Now that the curtains have been
drawn on football activities for the
present year Coach Elmer Burnham
is turning his attentions 10 the de-
velopment OF a basketball team that
Will equal the teams of former years.
South Bend High school has been
represented by strong fves in past
years. and Burnham, with a wealth
Of material, is expected 10 equal
previous scores this year.
The local mentor will build his
team around Capt Johnny Nyikos
and Ike Voedisch, both possessors of
great records on the gridiron this
past season. Voedisch played tackle
and Nyikos ran the eleven from half
back.
OF the five men who trOt out to
give battle 10 the Lane Tech basket

Is, four men, Nyikos, Voedisch, Hol-
lowell and Rhoutsong, will be among
the first five who will have the hon
or of wearing the orange and blue
in the first net contest Of the year.
These men are not TO be denied and
providing nothing untoward happens
to them which will put them out
the running they are sure TO start
the first game Hollowell and Rhout-
song. who played regular ends in
football We're ineligible last season.
Both are familiar with the waxed

as 10 who Will play the other for

Ike Voedisch Will be shifted to for
