MORLARTY QUITS
 AS TIGER LEADER
Detroit Hanger Nay Seek
 Umps Berth Again

Detroit, Oct. ls R-Failing. after two years of effort to bring up the Detroit baseball team to the place of prominence 1t once enjoyed as . winning combination, George Nor iarity has resigned as manager.
 The resignation was contained in Ia letter to Frank J. Navin. presi. dent of the club. Moriarity said the team's poor showing was due to 'unfavorable circumstances" The circumstances referred to were not set out in the letter.
 President Navin said the resigna- tion had been accepted but declined to reveal if a successor had been appointed or was under considera- ton.
 Although Moriarity stated in his letter that long experience in the game had taught him to accept the reverse with the same spirit that &C., companies success, he was known to have felt keenly the failure of the team this year.
 Between seasons two trades that proved disastrous weakened the club in both the batting and fielding de- partments. They involved release to the St. Louis Browns of Lou Blue and Heinie Manush.
 Nothing was contained in the let ter regarding the former managers plans for the future but friends here were of the opinion he would seek a berth on the American league um- piring stan, where he served for 10 years before taking over the man. agerial reins of the Tigers.
 Meanwhile speculation was rife concerning the identity of Nor iarity's successor. Names mentioned included those of Stanley Harris. Donie Bush, Kid Gleason Harry Heilmann and Arthur Fletcher. with Harris the most plausible selection. Bush was thought to be satisfied with his berth with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Neither Gleason nor Fletcher was believed to be inter- ested. Heilmann is said to favor the appointment of HarriH The former Washington pilot was reported to have conferred with Navin here last week.

 Due to persistent challenges by the Kensington nine. the Falcons decided to play 8 series for the Greater New Britain title. After three sensational games, the Ken sington crew emerged the winner and won the title. Both teams play ed sensational baseball but the ''old" Kensington jinx, combined with the airtight pitching of Coke" Wood- man. Eastern league star. proved too much for the Falcons. However. these losses were not felt very keen ly by the Falcons because of their triumphs in the city series.

New York. Oct IS R)-The Hot Stove league season is bound to be a success if for no other reason than that Walter Johnson is returning to the Washington ball club with which he played for 21 years.
 Speculations over what the Big Train will do at his old home should help pacify fandom during the long period between seasons. The club itself has set good example for the great idol of all baseball so far as action is concerned. It lost one manager and picked up another within ten days time.
 But few if any spectacular moves appear ahead for Washington. Most of the changes will be within the club. Clark Griffith, president of the Senators, already has gathered in a big collection of fresh material Outside of the deal which some club or another is expected to make

Partridge playing in the Southern association, hit around .330 for the season and was rated as one of the best fielding second basemen in the south. while Hayes playing helped Minneapolis attain the runnerup position in the American association.
 New pitchers coming to the Sen- ators include Adolph Liska. Min neapolis, Paul Mccullough. Toledo. and Archie Campbell. St. Paul. all of the American association; Guy Cantrell, Baltimore. and Paul Hop- kins, Montreal. both of the 1nterna- .tional league.

 Infielders, in addition to Hayes and Partridge. picked up by Griffith include Pete Voter, third baseman, Minneapolis, one of the hardest hit ting infielders in the American as- sociation: Ernest (Mule) Shirley. first baseman, Birmingham: Charles Gooch, third baseman.

 Two new outfielders were bought from Birmingham to help Goslin. West and Barnes. the 1928 Wash ington regulars. They are Elliott Bigelow and Melbourne Simons. RigelQw is one of the best hitters the Southern league ever produced.
 This is part of the park full of ball players that will report to the Big Train next spring. It will be fandom's fondest hope that he will be able to whip the squad into a pcnnant winning combination.

 Still another infielder may come to the Senators, for gossip among baseball men has it that Harris will be traded to Detroit for second baseman Charley Gehringer.
 With Harris missing, the Big Trains biggest problem will be fill- ing the second base post. Bobby Reeves, who substituted for Harris in some of the late season games, will be back. Among other pros-

 Lefty" Atwood proved to be the leading pitcher of the team during the season. He took the mound 1b times and was returned the winner in 12 games. In mid-season he won ten straight games before losing. Atwood was also a good fielding pitcher and connected for hits in the pinch.
 Nichols won one game and lost three, kania won one and lost one, Buckholtz won one and lost one and West lost the only game he pitched.
 BegIey Deserves Credit
