Hugpins Labors Under
Severe Handicap
With His Team

Miller Huggins is to be DE-
posed at the end of the present
year unless he jockeys the Yam
KEGS into another pennant. That
is placing a premium on parlor
magic.
1t would be all well enough to
expect a manager to bring home
a winner with an ordinary
championship club. but the Yam
KEGS are nothing if not extraor-
dinary. They are a group of
discordant elements and the
wonder of it is that Higgins
can make them win three ball
games out Of ten.
The only way he could estab-
lish harmony would be to sus-
pend half of his players. In
which case the club would bs
long on harmony. but short on
ball playing.

T1V1NG advice to golfers 10
Il like pouring oil on fire. 1t
~ only burns 'em up.
Therefore we realize that this
is some thankless election. We
have rumbled through tees, clothes
and divots. Now we approach
COLTS most vulnerable climax.
Caddies. without caddies there
could be no golf, because you can't
run railroads without baggage de-
partment.
Good cadies are born, not hatched.
They should be trapped when
about six years old. great care being
taken that their wings arc not bro
ken by steel teeth of trap. After
training for ten years they are
ready to annoy you.
After caddy Is broken to links, he
should practice carrying pianos
around on his back. Every day Is
moving day with new golfers. They
carry everything that Barnum ever
did except ticket wagons.
Expert caddies can hand you any.
thing on links. Rolling pins. shoe
trees, hatracks. carving sets, bed
stats, pogo sticks and niblicks. His
business is to supply the right club
in any contingency. Although cor
rect club for most golfing soiress is
one carried by officer Of law.
But law plays no part in golf. 1t
was a game invented by Scotch
smugglers who sought to evade tar
If on hard boiled eggs during reign
Of King Asperin. This king gave
everybody headaches because he
taxed everything within reach OF his
binoculars. He was especially aro-
CANT with eggs. Everybody knows
that Scotch folks must have their
eggs with their omelets, so these
smugglers sought to evade custom
duty by cheating King Asperin.
Everybody played croquet in those
DAYS because they would send you
to prison IL you got into debt. So
rather than get into debt. all Scotch
men played croquet. That's simple,
doesn't II?
Two Scotchcakes were smuggling
eggs in one day, when one of King
AspefIn's official tablets saw their.
So they dropped all their nice eggies
on the ground and started swatting
them with umbrella handles. Con-
stable came up and looked at ther'
and thought they were playing Gro
quet. So he went on his way with
dumbness chewing him up from
every angle.
This started golf, which is getting
more hardboiled every day.
They drove two dozen eggs across
Scotch border without meeting any
unavoidable habits like earthquakes
fire or labor strikes. Therefore

The market seemed dead. There
was not even a promoter in sight.
If Mr.. Kearns took the Wills
business on at that time it looked
as if he would have to go hop
scotching about the country trying
to peddle it, with the hot breath OF
the sheriffs of John Law at the
back of his neck.
Time and again Mr.. Kearns
opened the doors of his furnaces
and piled in the fuel in the way of
announcements that Dempsey was
willing to transact trade with
Wills, but nary a trickle of smoke
came from the stacks of publicity.
Business was certainly rotten.
Mr.. Kearns spoke of accepting
few job lots in the way of matches
with Bill Brennan, Harry Greb,
Jess Willard, Fred Fulton and
Georges Carpenter, but the trade
papers fairly ratified with jolly old
"razz."
1t commenced to look as if Mr..
Kearns would have to go into
bankruptcy, when somehow he
managed to interest the New York
Board of Boxing Commerce, other
wise the State athletic commission,
in his idle factory.
They wanted to know why it
wasn't turning out something or
other. They said tnat if produc-
ton didn't start forthwith they'd
have to cancel Mr.. Kearns' charter.
1t got we'll nigh indignant about
the matter, Mr.. Kearns, mean
time, standing back with a
quizzical smile on his face.
1t Must Be Astute.
A ND what has finally hap
u pened?
"A Well, sir, the Boxing
Chamber of Commerce has not
only found ways and means for
Mr.. Kearns to resume production,
but it is out drumming up business
for that astute gentleman. We
insist his name must be Astute.
1t has said that Mr.. Kearns may
consider those little job-lot orders,
such as Greb, Brennan, ct cetera,
in handicap consignments until
such time as hesis ready to start
wheels grinding on the Wills thing.
1t is not of record that it is pro-
viding business for Wills in the
meantime, but that does not in
terest Mr.. Kearns.
By simply remaining astute, not
to say cool and collected, and by
not mentioning anything more
than he has mentioned eight hun
dred times in the past year, Mr..
Kearns gets customers that would
not have been permitted inside his
place six weeks ago and winds up
with the big business of the era a
year hence.
