His PET Theory

One of Carrigan's pet theories
relative to pitchers, was they never
should be permitted to argue with
umpires. Whenever q Boston twirle,
started to take issue with ruling
on balls and strikes, Carrigan always
agreed with the umpire while the
pitcher was within hearing.
"If you ever missed one in your
life, you kicked that one" might
be his shot to the umpire a moment
later.
Carrigan always contended that
no pitcher could do his stuff and
umpire at the same time. ! During
his regime as catcher and manager
at Boston, Carrigan did any arguing
he believed necessary.

<CaHS
welcome Carrigan


|, AS Ty Cobb and iris Speaker pass
out of the American league, il is
pleasing to note the return of Bill
Carrigan.
Carrigan brings back some of the
color and prestige that is lost through
the departure of two of the greatest
outfielders baseball will ever see.
Well do I recall Bill Carrigan as
he reported to the Boston Red Sox
for few days in the fall of 1906.
He came direct from Holy Cross.
Rather awkward in style and lack
ing experience, Bill didn't create
much of an impression.
He was sent to Toronto ofs the
international league in 1907 to polish
off the rough edges. Once a year
in the minors and he. came back
to the big show a mighty good
catcher.

AMERICAN Club
NERS STILL
FAVOR LANDIS

2 CHICAGO, Dec. 13.-(F9-There is no
desire on the part Of the American
league club owners to ssupplant Kenne-
saw Mountain Lands as baseball COM
missioner or to oppose his reelection
for a seven-year term, which will come
up at the joint meeting of the major
league clubs here Thursday.
This was apparent tonight as club
owners of the American league gath
cred for their annual meeting tomor-
row and Wednesday.
Commissioner Lands will. have the
unqualified support of Colonel Jacib
Rupert, owner of the New York
Yankees, and Charles A. Comiskey,
owner of the Chicago White Sox, and
it is considered likely no other Ameri-
can league magnate will raise his voice
even in a whisper concerning the op-
position, if any, to the renewal of
Commissioner Lands, term.
It is probable that the American
league, in tending its endorsement, may
decide to boost Landiss annual salary
OF $4,000 to : higher figure.
The American league club owners
are expected to concur in the action Of
the NtLlOlidA 1Ctts5 uS III WINS ~ %
tend the 1927 campaign into the first
w eek in October, instead of ending the
season the last week in September, as
was done this year.
AS the American league club owners
seemed 20 have settled in advance what
their decision viii be on the major
questions coming up, it is likely that
spirited trading sessions will over
shadow the news of the deliberations
OF the owners.

TlRITIsH DERBY ENTRIES

Three hundred and fifty entries,
including eight by A. X. Macomber,
of New York., already have been
made for the derby of 1928. Colts
for this famous race are often
registered even before they are born.
King George has nominated two
horses for 1928, Savonarola, a colt
by Friar Marcus out of Yolande, and
Gauntlet, colt out of Neuve

The largest subscriber is the Aga

including Feridoon, the colt by Hurry

at the national stud. French nomina-

Other large subscribers include Sir
Abe Bailey with nine, six of which
are by his Cesarewitch winner, Som

FUNDS FOR T.B.
CATTLE TESTS
GETTING LOW
lsCttineau County Farmers
Want Work Completed
Packers Pay Premiums

Lack of sufficient appropriations
will prevent the state livestock sani-
tary board from proceeding with the
: testing Of Bottincau county cattle for
tuberculosis this year, DIR. W. +.
Crewc, secretary, said today.
At 4 conference here this week sew
cral BOttincau county residents said
there is Il strong sentiment there for
the completion of the tuberculin test
ing work in their county us rapidly as
possible.
One of the big advantages in hav-
ing clean up Of bovine tuberculosis
in county comes from the fact that
packers pay a premium for hogs re-
ceived from such districts, crewe
said. As an example he said that
Richland county farmers, during the
year ending August 81, received
S3,524.97 in premiums for hogs at
South st. Paul The total prem iums
Maid ut both ST. Paul for hogs orig
mating from North Dakota counties
accredited free from tuberculosis dur
ing the last year was S9,22l, Crcwe
said.
During the same period the Armou
plant at Fargo paid $4,000 in prem
iums for the same reason. During
June premiums totaling 1864 were
paid at the Fargo plant, Crewe's rec
Ords show, despite the fact that June
is a light month for deliveries Of hogs
to market.
The reason for the premiums. Crewe
said, is that there are fewer con-
demncd carcasses from districts
where tuberculosis has been eradicat-
ed from cattle herds.
