Players Object TO Training Methods
and Disciplinary Methods
Of Manager.

Dallas. Tex, April . P-Revolu-
ton has broken out in the ranks OF
The White SoN because of the train
ing methods and disciplinary meas
ures enforced by Manager Lena
Blackburne.
Blackburne. the rebels charged
had wounded their pride by 'snoop-
ing" on their actions off the dia-
| mond. Furthermore. they said the
team was not being run right and
that they were forced to play fourth
rate teams on precarious diamonds
without any possibility of learning
any baseball.
Despite recent warnings from the
Chicago headquarters and his three
day benching and the loss of his
captaincy for breaking training
rule, Art Shires, rookie first base
man, dictated a statement in which
he gave vent to his feelings.
II didn't want to come to this
club in the first place" the Texan
said. And / didn't ask for the cap
taincy. II they don't want me tc
play first base for them. all right
too. II they don't want me on their
squad. all right again. Let them
trade me or send me back to the
minors. there are plenty clubs that
can use me-
Blackburnc said he was running
the club and that he intends to en-
force the training rules.
Bill Cissell who cost the White
Sox $123,o00 in 1927. was another
who openly admitted his dissatisfac-
ton. Cissell. like Shires, was
benched for breaking rules.

Of Trouble With Caravan

Trenton, N. J., April . tR)-De-
cess, Charles c. Pyle, impressario of
the ira nscontinental Bunion Derby.
has found this years race is not a
bed of roses either for him or for
the runners.
The grief started at the end of the
second day when the caravan of
Bunioneeers and its accompanying
tent show reached here. First Tren-
ton authorities notified Pyle that his
show, counted on to bring in most
of the revenue for the affair, would
not be permitted to give its per-
Torrance. The promoter met this
difficulty by moving the camp across
the Delaware river TO Morrisville,
Pa, where the powers that be
proved kinder.
Next Pyle was met by a writ OF
attachment which cost him, temper
ariiy at least, possession of two of
the bright red automobiles of his
caravan. The writ was sued out by
the Thomas Deming company, which
supplied him with 1000 chairs for
the show: the amount $500.
Paul Simpson, dark horse from
Burlington. N. c.. covered the AGA
miles from Eliza beth TO Trenton IN
six hours 10 minutes, SO seconds to
lead the pack into the control sta
ton and take second place in the
elapsed time standing. Juuls Cools

take some food. His time Of 6;24:2o
was good enough to give him the
lead for the two days.
