BASEBALL PRACTICE STARTS
AT Hi AS CAGE SEASON ENDS

Coach C. W. Granger has issued his
first call for high school baseball prac
tice, and SQUAD of more than 40 boys
are tossing the horsehide back and
forth in limbering-up exercises daily.
The first batting and fielding prac-
tices are set for Thursday and Friday
this week. The squad will not be
trimmed until after the inter-class
tournament, but the best players in
each class will form the regular team
to meet other high school teams in
competition
The Cochise county schools form a
sub-district of the southern section of
Arizona and the winner of this district
meets the winner of the Pima Yuma
and Santa Cruz division.
The state is divided into four sec
tions and the winner in each section
is entered in the University week play
off for the state championship. The
championship series is an elimination
affair, only the winners being allowed
to play again. Last year the Glendale
highschool team won the state cham

Causey, besides breaking his own

was instrumental in bringing the
southern Arizona championship in
track to Douglas by taking a place
in the dashes and the broad jump.
James Mcclure, winner Of both
hurdle races last year in the south

NEW YORK, Feb. 2S lPy-The New
York Yankees apparently were making
no idle gesture to comply with base
ball law when they offered Babe Ruth
renewal of his old $4,000 year
contract for 1927. The club intends to
stand pat on this proposal it was
learned on good authority today, in
spite of the Babes trans continental
ballyhoo for a new contract at the
record breaking figure of 100000.
Baseball men generally have supposed
that with the rise of player value,
the Yankees would be willing to go as
high as $4,000 to sign their star home
run hitter, but as interpreted in re-
liable sources today, the club is not
disposed to make an compromise.
The only thing to which Barrow
committed himself today was an an
nouncement that Ruth's long delayed
letter had arrived. The interest in this
was lessened by the fact that it's con-
tents had been made public by Ruth
in Los Angeles Saturday night. Bar
row added that he expected the Babe
to arrive either late Wednesday night
or Thursday morning for conference.

working at the high jump.
Hohstadt looks best at the dashes,
and Causey may also take turn in
the short runs, with Douglas Wright
running the middle and long distance
runs. Wright placed in the state
meet last year and also won both
the $50 and mile in the southern
district meet. Wright should cut
down on his time this year and be
a dangerous contender in the state
meet
Wright and Causey are both SEN
iors and will be lost to the team
next year. Wright, in addition TO
running the distances, is vau1ter Of
no mean ability. He clears the bar
at 10 feet 6 inches and usually places
in the district meets.
Besides these main cogs of the
track machine there are a number of
green peas out each evening who
may develop into track stars before

FAVORITE OVER
MIKE M'TICUE

NEW YORK, Feb. % P-Tf Jack
Delaney's rapier-lfke right hand thrust
couldn't pierce the barrier of Jimmy
Maloney's 31-poun6 advantage, what
prospect has the veteran Mike McTigue,
rejuvenated though he seems to be, of
spotting Jack Sharkey 20 pounds and
winning their 15-round match at Madi-
son Square Garden next Thursday
night?
mot much" any bystander may be
informed, if he takes his answer from
betting odds that stood at 40 to-
night in Sharkey's favor and from the
bulk of expert opinion after the rival
gladiators had gone through their last
strenuous workouts.
So far as the experts go, the ad-
vance dope" on the battle, which
promises to attract almost as expensive
a house as the Maloney-Delaney
scrap, may not be convincing. A con-
sensus before thel Maloney-Delaney
bout. for instance, showed 1S out Of 21
favoring Delaney. Now, however, the
reasoning that accounted for Maloneys s
triumph-weight advantage--is being
applied to the Sharkey- McTigue affair
Granting all of Mikes sensational
knockout accomplishments in his come
back, the observers feel it will take
miracle for him to overcome Sharkey,
who has speed and cleverness as Well
as weight on which to count.
Mike of course, does not subscribe
to the logic of those who see the
end of his ambitious climb this week
He predicts that he will beat Sharkey
decisively, possibly knock him out, and
4 hen be ready to take on Pauline, Ma
loney, Dempsey and Tunney, in any
order or any way it can be arranged.
Inasmuch as Mike has conceded any
where from eight to 80 pounds to his
last five opponents and Knocked them
all out, he isn't worrying over TINS
handicap in the Sharkey bout.
The Irish veteran weighed ITO to-
day and Sharkey 100.
Sharkey already has put himself on
record as being able to dispose OF all
obstacles to heavyweight title bout.

Three Sport Events
Slated Here During
J Next Three Weeks

AS a result of arrangements made
by representatives of five Y M. G. AS
who met at the state convention in
Tucson last week, Douglas has in store
three major athletic events in the next
three weeks, two of which involve
state honors, according to report
brought back to the local "Y."
First will come a matched game OF
basketball between the champions OF
the Tucson Sunday school basketball
league and the Douglas Y. M. G. A.
13O-pound team, winners of the 13O-
pound southwest tournament to be
played here next Saturday at 1880
o'clock. The Tucson team is composed
of Mexicans, representing the Mexican
Methodist church of that city, victors
over all the Sunday school teams in the
district.
On Saturday, March 10, three volley-
ball teams, representing southern Ari-
zona. will play off in the local gym
the finner of this three -cornered con-
test to. play the winner of similar
group playing in Phoenix. The south
ern teams will represent Tucson, Bis
bee and Douglas, while the northern
division will be composed OF teams
from Phoenix, Miami and Morenci. Vic
tors of these two divisions will con-
test for state honors on neutral
court, to be decided upon later.

group of youngsters out for practice,
but most of the material is green and
needs a lot of practice t owork off the
rough corners.
Pratt, Shotwell Herbert and Dixon
are the only letter men back on the
squad and these have had but one sea-
son of play. Unless some other receiver
shows real class, Pratt will be doing
most of the back-stopping with Clin-
ton Cary as the best possibility for the
slab work. Elmo Herbert, the lanky
first-sacker of last years team is
again making a strong bid for that
position. Franklin and Shotwell are
groomed to work at the short field and
at the keystone sack, with Miller, Will
son and Cfuevara all trying their luck
at the "hot corner"
There is plenty of outfield material,
but Jimmy Dixon is the only regular
back in school, as the other outer
gardeners graduated last May.
Regular scheduled games will begin
in about two weeks and continue until
the latter part of April
Glass teams will be organized and
the regular inter-class series will be-
gin within the next two weeks.

Bisbee Left Out Of
Arizona State Loop;
Plan Three Leagues

Globe. Miami, Mesa and Phoenix
are the teams that will represented
in the Arizona State league this sea-
son, it was definitely decided at
board of league directors in Phoenix
Saturday night, according to infor-
nation received here.
A delegation from Bisbee attended
the meeting advocating playing three
ball games a week. The other repre-
sentatives did not believe that the
cities would stand that much base
ball. Bisbee failed to connect with
the central loop.
The board of directors who attended
the meeting are trying to work out
a plan for three state circuits to be
operated as one state league with
three schedules. The central group
would comprise Miami, Globe, Mesa
and Phoenix; the northern loop, Je-
rome, Clarkdale, Prescott and Flag
staff; and tn esothern group, Bisbee,
Douglas, Nogales and Tucson.
The plan calls for inter-circuit
games at the close of the first half
and again at the close of the second
half to determine the state cham
pionship. The various groups would
be protected from jumping players
through agreement.
A meeting has been called in No
gales Sunday to make plans for the
formation of the Southern Arizona
league, and it is hoped that final
organization can be accomplished
then. Representatives from Douglas
Tucson, Bisbee, Cananea and No
gales have been invited to the meet
ing.
! Attempts are still being made to
get Bisbee into the Copper league
with Fort Bayard Chino and Ell Paso
but as Bisbee has gone on record this
year as being opposed to outlaw
baseball as played in the Copper
/ league, it is not believed that the
negotiations will be successful.
| Efforts to have Douglas well rep
resented at the Nogales conference
Sunday are being made and every
baseball enthusiast interested in the
i proposed southern circuit is requested
| to make the trip.
