Lane Refuses
Two Bids for
j. Frederick

DILL LANE is serious about his
- intention of selling his Salt Lake
ball club.
The deep.voiced owner of the Bees
has refused twp offers for Johnny
Frederick, star Dung outfielder and
one OF the best hltters uncovered
in this league in years.
Both Washington and Brooklyn
have made Lane definite offers for
Frederick.
The Washington bid was good
one. coming direct from Clarke Crit

yesterday. thru an indirect source
to Lane from Charley Ebbetts of
Brooklyn.
But Lane says he will not sell any
Of his players now as he intends TO
sell his whole club and wants his
team intact and in good condition for
the purchaser.
That's the exception to the rule in
baseball; an owner planning TO get
out OF the game who passes up
chance TO sock away a few extra
dollars at the expense of the next

time, Tunney showed his utter anna
tcuTism by feinting Carpenter while
the latter stood absolutely helpless
with both arms dangling at his side
Imagine that, Imogcne!
The idea Of the feint in box
ing Is TO make your opponent
lead or open up. But there was
Carpenter with both hands mo-
tionless at his side, and Tunney
feinting him. All Tunncy had TO
do was TO walk over and paste
him and the show would have
been over.
You can check Tunney definitely
off the Dempsey calling list along
with Gibbons. and thank Carpenter.

ing demonstration. 1t saves you
