HUGGINS A DIPLOMAT
Manager of New York Yankees is Adept at Bringing Holdouts Down to Terms.

New York, March 6 {.P,-Miller iiuegins. field general and developer of the worlds champion baseball team, is equally adept in the arts of mediation, concila'ion and arbitra- ton.
 In other words. the little manager of the Yankees, knows how to bring recalcitrant holdouts into line and make 'cm like it.
 Last year Huggins suggested the terms that resulted in Babe Rnth placing his famous autograph on something else besides a souvenir baseball. After the worlds cham- pions hip and tucked away last sea- son, quite a few Of Mir. Higgins athletes began planning additions to their financial air castles.
 These dream builders included Tony Lazzer, Earle Combs. Mike Gazella Mark koenig, Waite Hoyt land Urban Shocker.
 The Yankees business office fail ed to satisfy some of these young men so the suave and astutc Mir. Hugeins took up the barley.
 Lazzeri, who it is reported wanted to be the highest salaried second baseman in baseball, yesterday sue cumhed to the crooning argument of Little Hug. Tony signed a con- tract for two years at reported figure of Sl2,5no per annum which is considerably under Rogers Horns by's S40,000.

New York, March s. Lpy-Height is important in basketball, but it isn't everything. The shortest play CT in the professional game is q leader in scoring in the American Basketball league while the tallest is far down the list.
 Dave Banks of the New York Ccltics. five feet. three inches and the shortest, aVera &@d more than eight points in comp" r'aon with ? 2-3 for Milas Shoun of the Chi cago Bruins, the tallest. who is seven feet, two inches in height.
 Banks, who weighs but 125 pounds, rolled up his impressive average with consistent total of 273 points in his yrst 3t games. The work Of SAOun, q newcomer to the pro g@'1". was watched closely when he joined the Chicago club in mid-soa"sn and he can virtually stand on tip toes and dror them through the ring. The best he could do in three games, however. vas To sc0r7 eight points, slightly 4''-N l!ltf lsui4h@ JF 'to1'-'l II! tti II Ol 24 games
 Dazzling speed and an unerrinE eye for the basket have enabled banks to otfrct th" trcn 'nlous ad- vantage cf his bigger a"ta gonista, He is a hard man 10 stop as he tears down the floor, cutting swiftly around the knees Of the bigger play CTS. and when he shoots it is quite as effective as Shoun's method of dropping them in from above
 Another littl" player who follows the sam" system with almost the same success Is Penny Horgcman Of the Cleveland BosanhlComs who ranked only a little below Banks in third place in the league scoring. It appears to be ourt-craft and speed that counts, rather than height.
 The lttlest and biggest players came from markedly different , schools of basketball, Banks gaining prominence with the Visitation quintet in south Philadelphia and Shoun at Carson-Newman college. Banks Joined the Coltics in 1926.
