C0MISKEYS LAWYER
is QUIZZED IN COURT

MILWAUKEE, February ALFRED
S. Austrian. attorney for the Chicago
Club of the American League, occu-
pied the stand the entire day in the
trial of Joe Jackson's s1s,50O suit
against the White Sox Club here yes
terday.
During the afternoon session Aus
trian was subjected to cross-exami-
nation by Ray Cannon, attorney for
jackson, and will be recalled for
further examination today at the
opening of court.
The chief interest of the attorney
for the plaintiff was centered about
Comiskey, president of the club, and
Austrian, as the club attorney, in the
development of activities concerning
the 1919 world series.
Austrian, said that he had never
heard Comiskey mention the name
or single alleged dishonest player
from the middle of October, 1919, to
January 20, 1920. He said the play
ers suspected were not called in by
Comlskey, and he did not question
any of them.
Asked if detectives were placed on
the case, he said detectives had been
employed until in May, 1920, when
they were discharged, and told the
court he could not remember the ma
ture OF tho report submitted by these
men.
Austrian denied that the activities

Vlded the evidence, and also that had

GRIFF GETS CHESBRO
TO COACH PITCHERS

Jack 'Chesbro will be coach of
pitchers for the Washington club
this year The former premier spit
ball pitcher of the New York High
was in it's infancy, in Il letter re-
ceived this morning, accepted a propo-
sition made to him at Boston earlier
in the week by Clark Griffith. and
said he would be here to accompany
the first squad of batterymen to
Tampa nine days hence
Chesbro probably was the greatest
OF all moist-ball hurlers. and under
Griffith set a record of forty-one vic
tories in 1904. when New York lost
the pennant to Boston by the slim
margin of one and one-half games.
Since his big league career ended
Chesbro attained success as coach of
the Harvard varsity nine, and al
though forty-seven years old, still
pitches for recreation with an in
dependent club at his home in Con-
way. Mass.
Chesbro has kept in close touch
with big league base ball and has u
knack of imparting his knowledge
OF pitching to others. according to
Grih, who believes he will make an
ideal tutor for young hurlers.

johnson was received yesterday.

WOULD MAKE. DUNDEE
ENTER PANAMA RING

PANAMA, February THE Pan
aman boxing commission has cabled
the New York state commission re-
questing that an examination be
made to determine officially whether
Johnny Dundee is in condition to full
fill his agreement to meet Jose Lom-
bardo, Central and South American
featherweight champion. here. the
latter part Of this month.
The commission acted on the plea
Of Eddie Roberts. promoter of the
match. who exhibited a message from
Dundee's manager, Jimmy Johnston,
saying the champion had injured his
hand in his bout with Pal Moran and
requesting a postponement.
The Panaman governing body asks
that, in case Dundee is able to fight,
he be prevented from engaging in
other matches until he meets Lom-
bardo. 1t calls attention to the fact
that the Dundee-Lom agree
ment was not subject to the result
Of the Moran match.
Johnston, Dundee's manager, de-
clared in New York yesterday that
plans for a Dundee-Lombardo match
would probably be Cancelled. He ad-
mitted proposing postponement OF
the bout because of an injury to
Dundees hand, but said other plans
now made it improbable that the
champion would go to Panama.
Dundee is seeking a match with
Benny Leonard for the lightweight
title.

Philadelphia boxing authorities. in
searching for light on the question
of money for boxers, have discovered
that a certain fighter will appear in
smaller cities for a sum considerably
below what he is said to demand in
Philadelphia. Well. why not? Prob
ably he asks more to appear in the
Madison Square Garden than he does
in Philly.
John Barrymore, on tour with
Hamlet" will appear for less money
in the smaller centerS than he re-
ceives in New York or Philadelphia
that is to say, prices of admission
will be smaller. A fighter. or any one
else. is worth what he will bring. In
Philadelphia the unnamed fighter has
sufficient reputation to draw forth
fans in sufficient number to fill a ball
park.
In a smaller city his reputation
would be no less attractive than in
Philadelphia. but there would not be
so many fans to turn out. AS a con-
sequence, it is fair for a fighter to
charge less for his services. If all
our top-notchers We're willing to do
this they would be kept much buster
than they are and in the long run

TUNNEY WOULD FORCE
BATTLE WITH M'TIGUE

HOT SPRINGS. Ark, February o.
Gene Tunney, the light heavyweight
ring champion. sent a telegram to his
manager, Billy Gibson, urging the lat
ter to appear before the New York box
ing commission Friday and request
that body to take definite action to
compel Mike McTigue to abide by the
contract he signed last fall for bout
with Tunney.
The boxing commission recently held
that the severance of business rela-
tions between McTigue and his former
manager. Joe Jacobs, who negotiated
the Tdnney contract, did not affect the
validity of the agreement and that the
Irishman would be required to box
Tunney before meeting Georges Car
pentier. Tunney is training here pre-
paratory to his bout with Mike Burke

There will be no change in the ball
Thorough analysis of the batting of
both majors shows that the ball is
less responsible for any alleged trou-
hles than the pitchers. OF course,
not all leagues use the same ball, and
base balls vary, but the modern ball
of the big leagues is the best that
bali players ever handled.
To Keep Balls in Longer.
The practice of umpires' throwing
out balls that have been used less
than one time around in batting will
be squelched. 1t is time that it was.
Umpires in their haste to follow
orders" have used no discretion in
substituting new balls.
1t is true that a ball which has
been played with for three innings
box. In the earlier days of the Ma
tional League, and the American, too,
il was not uncommon to play with the
same ball in two games.
The substitution of new balls also
has been increased by the habit of
spectators in helping themselves to
balls batted into the stands. When
this practice began attention was
called to it by a former National
League official, who predicted that
the practice would become so preva-
lent as to materially raise batting
averages That prediction has come
true.
No Modification OF Hat.
No modification of the bat is likely.
Although a laminated bat may be
made of hard wood, and thereby come
under the technicalities of the rule.
the laminated bat was retired in
other years by a National League
president because he feared a bat
might break and a flying splinter
strike a player in the face and injure
him.
The spitball rule will not be ex-
tended to care for any pitchers new
to the game. The rule in the majors
stands for good. The use of resin,
which has been suggested to aid
pitchers, is unnecessary. \ good
pitcher will be more handicapped
with it than without it. 1t Spoils
curves instead of making them.

NOBODY WILD ABOUT KHAN

A branch of the Ku Klux Klan will
not be established in Gardnerville If
lack of interest in that organization
is any criterion to go by. The meet
ing held at this place last Saturday
night was attended by less than fif-
teen men, the majority of that num-
ber attending only out of curiosity.
Many that received cards of the K
X. X. and later little red tickets of
admittance to the lecture, failed to
show up, says the Record-Courier.
The lecturer, said to be a minister
of the gospel prior to his connection
with the X. X. K, spoke for several
hours on the principles, hopes and
desires of the Ku Klux Klan. He is
an orator of more than ordinary abil-
ity. according to reports and had a
convincing way of putting over his
arguments favoring this organiza-
ton.
The organizers will probably sue
ceed in forming branches of the X.
X. X. in the larger cities of Nevada,
but little success will greet them in
the rural communities.
