DALLAS YEARNS
FOR ACTION

The name of Pete Dallas is an old
brand with the elder wrestling fans
of the District, but it has been miss
ing from the books this year. 1t
isn't because Dallas has surrendered
to Father Time or that he is beyond
mediocre usefulness. The Greek
finds it's a problem to have some
one grapple him on the mat.
Dallas was a headline middle
weight wrestler in these W oods 10
years or more ago and today keeps
himself fit by daily workouts at the
local Y. M. C. A. He has challenged
some of those who have disported
here. but his defies have gone un.
needed.
PuzzIing to Dallas is the
"cOld shoulder" given him by
the present day wrestlers.
They say he is too old. but
wrestIers have no heart for
the aged, blind or crippled.
Dallas made Rough House"
Nelson quit last year at the
Gayety Theater here and Nelson
wants no more of Dallas. A.
least, Dallas is unmentioned in
Nelson's open challenges.

VIC KEEN KEEN
FOR ORIOLES

AUGUSTA, Ga, March 25.-Did
you ever hear of ball player pay
ing money. and big money at that,
to play ball in a city which he
liked? Well. the Orioles have such a
man.
For three years Vic Keen, former
star Of the University of Maryland,
has been yearning to wear an Oriole
uniform and to be near his people in
Baltimore
He succeeded this spring, but
to gain his desire had to pur-
chase his own release from the
Houston club Of the Texas
League.
The figure was in the neighbor-
hood Of $4,000.
Then Vic got N touch with
Manager Maisel of the Birds. and
offered to sell his services. Maisel
was glad to get him. He paid the
pitcher SO much for signing and
agreed to give him more in case
he could win so many games.
Thus, Keen had paid actual
money for the opportunity to dish
'em up for the Orioles,
Such unusual circumstances
should make every rOOter i'm
