1t is possible that the rumors about
the desire Of the Athletics to secure
Sisler of the Browns have some SUBJ
stance to them. Sisler is not a GER
tain quantity, nor is he an uncertain
quantity. Away from st. Louis, he
might prove to be a better first base
man than If he remained with the
Browns.
There is also another first baseman
in sight in the American League who
might figure in a trade. He is Neun
of Detroit. Cobb once said he never
would play another season without
two first basemen. He might get an
auxiliary first baseman and still per-
NIT \eun to go and seek his reputa-
ton elsewhere.

that he needs batters more than any
thing else, because his pitching staff

lead a chase against the pitchers of
Cleveland-the latter organization be-
ing looked upon thus early as the
team that the boys will have to lick
if they win in 1927.

Boley is one of the steadiest who has

he is a very smart player in his po-
sition. and he should do well at Phila-
delphia.
Galloway Too Weak.
Galloway, the man who played short
for the Athletics in 1926, once was
thought to be the best shortstop in
the league. He has failed to meet the
standard set for him by his friends
in the last two seasons. He was crit
icised in 1925 for losing some of his
sprightliness. and he has, been worse
criticized this year.
Bishop. second baseman, is a victim
Of nostalgia. Some thought it was a

ball. About once in so often the call
of home appeals to him so strongly
that he wants to get back to the but

Mack has told Bishop that if he wishes
to play base ball for the Athletics in

Sons OF old Ireland, Germany, Italy.
Greece and Jerusalem stepped their
wares and the entire card was cram
med full with action.
Billy Drake, lightweight champion
of Germany, was Oiitclassed in every
way except gameness by Jimmy Ryan

It was really remarkable how Drake
took It all In the earlier rounds with
out kissing the canvas.
It was Ryan ali the way except In
the fourth and seventh rounds. In
these two stanzas Drake landed re-
peatedly with an overland left to the
Irishman's right jaw. with the result
that Ryan especially In the seventh
round was, In a bad way. 4 In the
eleventh Ryan upset the German with
m left TO the jaw for a. count Of eight.
As the bell rang ending the fight,
Drake was a sight to behold from the
jabs and smashes he absorbed.
Jimmy Mack. conceding many
pounds to Nick Repoli, proceeded to
dish ont a neat trimming to his
heavier opponent. Repoli took the
first round, but paid dearly for his In.
discretion during the remainder of the
bout. Mack had hin opponent on
Queer street a number of times but
