Clearwater. Fla, March 2O.-The
ferocious rooter Of BROOKLYN should
have plenty of new faces at whom
they can hurl epithets when the
Robins return north to open the 1923
baseball season.
With the exception Of the pitching
staff, where he is abundantly forti-
fled, Mr.. Wilbert Robinson. the port
ly manager, will do much expert
menting before he is satisfied.
Brooklyn's infield comes in for
one of the greatest alterations ever
witnessed on a major league club.
Three positions are slated for new
occupants.
Dave Bancroft gives us just the
right steadying effect around second
base, and if Harry Riconda and Del
Bissonette play the game they are
capable Of, Brooklyn will have the
best infield since l have been run
ming this club Robinson says.
"Banny" was an early arrival at
Clearwater. He has given attention
to mapping out plays with Second
Baseman Jimmy Partridge and is
eager for work, now that manager
ial responsibilities have been lifted
from his shoulders.
Bissonette Impressive
The early form of Bissonette,
highly touted first bascman who had
a great year with Buffalo in the
international League last season, has
been very impressive. He gems to
have that position rather we'll sewed
up, with Babe Herman being ready
to step in when something goes
wrong.
Riconda, at third, has also shown
nicely and will probably start the
season there. Rlconda is no new

ers Training Players For
Next Four Years
BY BRIAN BELL
Associated Press Sports Writer


New Orleans, La, March 2O.-F
Cleveland has the current edition
Of the Indians of the American
League in training and with it the
classes of 1881 and 1882. There are
~ players in camp, ranging from
the 1S-year-old Mel Harder to the
39-year-old Grover Hartley.
Cleveland, with new manager
and new owners, is looking far
ahead. Some Of the two score play
ers now in Cleveland uniforms will
not wear this livery during the sea-
son, but they are sure to don the
colors again in years to come.
One of the minor leagues grad
yates has already made good. Ed
die Margan, former Tulane base
ball, football and basketball star,
who was a southern association
sensation with the New Orleans
Pclicans last season, has been given
iris Speakers old place, center
field. Morgan, fas, and hard hit
ter, has established himself as one
OF the most promising players adj
vancing from the minors to the
majors this year. Charlie Jamison
will again play left field and lead
off, and Homer Summa, who knows
his right field wall in Cleveland,
will try to outguess that barrier
through another season. Gerken
and Langford, who have been up
before, promise Is remain as utility
outfielders. Gill, a rangy young
chap, and Speer, just as young and
almost as rangy, will be heard from
later.
lnficld Well Cared For
The veteran George Burns viii
play first base ard hit doubles. Lew
Fonseca will start at second case
and consistent Joe Sewell at short.
Johnny Hodapp will play thild.
Manager Peckinpaugh will act as
an infield substitute as will his
former teammate, Aaron Ward. Gail
Lind, another Tulane Alumnus. has
a chance to join Morgan in roofing
for the green. The place Is all
cluttered up with young fellows who
probably will make their mark on
future baseball pages. Jonah Good

conner to the majors, having pre-
lviously put in time with the Athletics
and the Boston Red Sox.
Pitching, as usual, is the least
of Uncle Nilbert's worries. Thir-
teen hurlers are in camp, the ma
jority of them veterans.
Vance, Petty. McWeeney, Ehr-
hardt. Doak and Elliott figure to be
the first string men with Ray Moss
of Memphis, Southern Association
club, and Louis Koupal, who toiled
with Indianapolis in the American
Association last year, being the two
recruits who are more than likely to
stick.
"Dazzy" Vance has been practic-
ing diligently every day. He pitched
three innings in An early practice
game and for one inning q day let
out some of his "hard" ones. Need
less to say this was very annoying
to the late-coming squad Of infielders
and outfielders.
Doak Is Happy
| This may be Bill Doak's last year
Of major league ball, but he says
he should be good for a dozen wins
this year if his supply of slippery
elm holds out. Petty and McWeeney
are also counted on for good work
in the coming campaign.
The outfield probably will be
manned by Capt. Max Carey, Albert
Tyson, former Giant, late of Buffalo,
and Babe Herman, provided the
latter's services are not required at
first base.
Arnold STATE may be transferred
while Oyerton Tremper, the former
Penn star, will be in reserve.

minded BY Uncle Robbie that his
team always makes q pennant threat

Only One Heavyweight Cham
pionship Fight Seems To
BE Prospect This Year

New York, March 2O.--l4P)-Ap-
parently there is to be one heavy
weight championship fight this
year. So much has come out Of
conferences at Miami bet cen Gene
Tunney and Tex Richard. The sit
uation is complicated BY the New
York boxing authorities asking Tm-
new to name his opponent forth
with.
Gene Tunney and Richard have
agreed upon title affair to be held
in July at place not yet decided
upon.
In the event Richard abides by
the wishes of Tunney. Tom Heency,
the New Zealander, will be the chal-
lenger.
The New Yorl, state athletic COM
mission yesterday wired Turney at
Miami Beach notifying hir, that his
six-month period Of grace to settle
upon an opponent would expire on
Thursday and asked for reply. The
commission Informed Tunney that
challenges Of Jack Sharkcy, Tom
Heeney and Johnny Risko were on
file IN that order.
June Plans Dropped
Meanwhile, at Miami Beach, Rick
ard had persuaded Tunney to drop
plans for June bout and decide up
ON July match instead. Richard
announced that the July struggle
would be the only heavyweight
championship of the year.
Richard declared the decision
reached with Tunney automatically
covered the requirements sought by
the New York commission.
Richard said he would announce
the challenger shortly.
1t was pointed out that the COM
mission merely notified Tunney of
the challenges on file and that he
was in no way bound to choose with
in the ranks of the three named but
might taken on any good heavy
weight.

Export Debenture
Proposal May Be
Used as Compromise

Washington, Jan. 24-(AP)-With
theh McNary-Haugen ranks divided
over the equalization fee, a new
strategy emerged in the farm bloc
today, designed toward use OF the
export debenture plan OF the ma
tiOna2 grange as z vehicle for corn
promise.
This latest peace plan, yet to be
worked out in detail, provides that
the debenture clause would he SO
worded as to be satisfactory to the
administration and then would be
sponsored by some Republican men,
bers OF tho agriculture committee.
Although this plan already has
been embodied in 4 bill by Repre-
sentative Jones, Democrat, Texas,
Louis J. Tabcr, master OF the ma
tional grange, has announced that
it would again be introduced in the
near future.
Stated in the simplest terms, Ia
ber explained, the export debenture
plan Is an arrangement whereby ex-
porters OF certain agricultural prod
ucts would receive from the treas
ury department certificates having
4 face value established by con-
gress, and intended to represent the
differences in costs of production
here and abroad. Such certificates
would be good for their face valae
in the payment Of import tariffs on
any articles later imported.

Grain Smut Campaign
Plans Are Outlined

Minneapolis, Jan. "a (AP) -
Plans for continuation and expan-
sion in 1923 OF the campaign for
elimination Of grain smut, which in
two years has cut the grain smut
losses OF northwest farmers in half.
were shaped here today at a meet
ing OF the northwest grain smut
prevention committee.
II. f. Woodwork OF Minneapolis
Is chairman Of the committee, whose
membership includes grain me-
chants, elevator managers, millcrs,
grain experts OF state agricultural
colleges Of Minnesota, North DakO-
tn, South Dakota and Montana, and
representatives of public and busi-
ness organizations Of Minneapolis
and other cities.
The program approved by the
committee was outlined this MORN
ing at a preliminary conference at
tended by officials OF tho state farm
schools. These included: Dean II.
l.. Bolley, botanist: Sid Hooper,
publicity director, and l.. G. Booth,
field agent in agr0nomy, OF the
North Dakota college Of agriculture.
Chairman Woodwork, opening
the formal committee session, said
that smut damage to northwest
wheat, oats and barley has been re-
duced, in the two years since the
smut prevention committee was or
gauizcd, 10 such extent that only
one carload OF grain out Of every
IL reaching Minneapolis in 1927
was graded as smutty. In 1925, the
average was one smutty carload III
each six.

Historical Document

poral, while participating in a COM
mand post exercise, Was issued q
book Of field message blanks, some
what similar to telegram blanks.
The signature "Dorey" on carbon
copies Of some old messages remain
inR in the book attracted the cor
porals attention.
Examination Of the book by Cap
tain r. C. Wright, commanding the
company, and by Corporal Wade II.
Ross, who was q member Of the reg
iment overseas, led to the conclu-
sion that the message book was the
one used at the headquarters Of

messages date from July 8 to July

afterwards wounded while conf
manding the regiment in battle;
