ments where the express company
or other concern or individual acts
as broker for the importer and in

ADMINISTRATORS

Released by Pittsburgh two wears ago, Spencer Adams. second base man and utility in1elder, is hoping for 2 chance at revenge in the world series, Adame. one of the few college players on the Nation als had little opportunity to dis play his wares during the season with Manager Harris at second and Bluege at third playing steadily. He got into the lineup in the final drive, however when Harris was injured and became q big question mark when it was doubtful whether the manager of the champions would be able 10 recover in time for the series.
 A clever fielder. fast man on the bases, the big question was Adams hitting ability, He settled some doubt along this line when he broke up an extra inning game against Chicago with q single. Adams was born in Layton, Utah, June et, 1899. After playing with the University of Utah he went to Seattle in 1922 and a year later to Pittsburgh from where he was sent to Oakland, Calf. Washington got Adams last winter through the | draft. He throws right handed and bats left handed

 In this period Coach Andy smiths squads not only have clean ed up everything in the Far West, but have met and held off some of the leading teams of the east. Four were file games,
 This season Smith should have easier going. He has picked tentative eleven almost entirely from last year regulars. On the present frst-string team the only new man IS Baze. the center. who replaces Horrell. The late Walter Camp picked HorreIl for his first all Amerlcan team for 1924. Capt. 'Tu' Inlay, the diminutive player who was 3 sensational open field runner last fall, will hold down one of the halfback positions while Jimmy Dixon, triple-threat man. has first call on the other one. oung ts starting at fullback, with Iriffln and Brown alternating.

He is regarded ss dangerous left-handed batter,
 Neach roamed the outfield with Detroit for eleven seasons, playing alongside Ty Cobb. In 1923 he was sold to Boston. Early this season he went to the New York Yankees and when they asked waivers liar ris picked up the veteran.
