Browns Set Great
Example to Cards

st. Louis, Mo-. Jan. 31.-The st.
Louis Browns got away SO successfully
with rockies at shortstop and second
base last summer that the st. Louis
Cards are going to try the same ex-
pertinent this summer.
It may be remembered that Man
ager Dan Howley, when asked in
spring training camp In 1928 how the
Browns would do in the race, said 1t
al depended on two rockies, Kress
and Brannon.
"Kress will play short and Brannon
will play second" he said. If they
make good, 1t will make me smart
guy; il they don't, well-let's not talk
about it."
Both filled the bill acceptably for
Howley and played big part in land
ing the Browns in the third rung Of
the ladder.
The Cards are going to pin thei,
hopes on Charley Colbert at second
base with frankie Frisch shifted to
third and Carey Selph at shortstop.
Both are youngsters with experience
ct Cardinal farms.
Both enjoyed great years in base
ball last summer, Colbert with the
Rochester Internatiorals and Selph
down at Houston. Scouts say they
are ready for the majors.

Taylor Averages
$500 Each Bout

Terre Haute. Ind. Jan. 3l.-An
average Of approximately $4,000 has
been paid Bud Taylor for each Of his
fights.
OF course, he didn't get that sum
for some Of his fights when he wasn't
known very far from Terre Haute,
but he did get plenty more for some
Of his other fights.
Taylor says he has fought 1873 times
and has drawn down 1927 900. That
gets the $4,000 average.
And he is not through.

Hockey Has. Bigger
Appeal to Corners
Than Pro Football
George Owen and MyIes Lane
Prefer Pro Ice Game to
Cridiron Activity

New York, Jan. 3l.-(RePro foot
ball held no lure for George Owen
and Myles Lane, but pro hockey
proved to be q different attraction
altogether.
These young men who scaled the
heights of athletic brilliance In east
ern college circles, especially in foot
ball and hockey, are now swinging
sticks in the National Hockey league.
Owen. q graduate Of Harvard, after
resisting overtureS made by the pro
football moguls, needed four years
to make up his mind not to resist the
hockey offers.
Lane was action personificd in
swapping up q pro proposition. He
joined the majors Immediately after
finishing his college course last year.
Owen, one Of the crimson's greatest
football and all-around stars, is will,
the Boston Bruins. while Lane. q
former Dartmouth athletic luminary,
wears the colors Of the Nev York
Rangers. Both are defense men.
Owen who broke into the pro game
two months after Lanes entrance, is
q regular. Lane, younger and less ex-
perienced than the old Harvard hero,
rates as spare with the Rangers.
Owen has been more than Just q
player with Boston and his consist
emily good work has helped the
Bruins set q warm pace for the lead
ing Rangers.
Lane has been coming along" Is
the hockey critics say, but his chief
claim to fame still is that of being
the first player to Jump direct from
college hockey to the big league.
The two former simon pure blade
specialists are in line for company
from the college ranks. The schools
are turning out more and better play
ers each year, and pro hockey Is
spreading, with q consequent in
creased demand for talent. So an
other year and several young men,
now playing for glory, will be getting
paid for their disc shooting.

Hockey Leadership
Is More Uncertain
Americans May overtake the
Canadiens Again; Boston
Worries Rangers

New York, Jan. 3l.-(R)-The lead
crship of the National Hockey League
seems to become more uncertain as
the season progresses. Les Cana
diens Of Montreal. who won the ton
rung In the International group TAX
ing two strenuous games on success
sive nights, get we'll earned rest to-
night but that rest may cost them
first place.
While they are idle. the New York
Americans, who dropped into second
place by a one-point margin, clasl,
with the Rangers In the last of their
intra-city battles. A victory would
put them ahead again and would give
them their first championship Of the
city.
Another threat to the leadership
lies In the meeting between Boston
and Toronto. As result Of their
long winning streak. extending to IL
games without defeat, the Bruins
are only two points behind the
Rangers in the American grouu
standing.

Herbie Lewis of Detroit Cou-
gars and Cooney Weiland of
Boston Are Good
CAME UP FROM MINORS
Lewis Is Regular Center on
Michigan Team; Weiland
Second High Scorer

Boston. Jan. 3l.-lP)-Two young
stars Of minor league hockey have
taken their good looks and scintillat-
ing style Of play into the fastest CTR
cult In the land to gain rating as the
prize rockies Of the year.
They are Herbie Lewis Of the De-
troit Cougars and Cooney Weiland Of
the Boston Bruins.
Lewis formerly played with Duluth
and Weiland with Minneapolis, in
the American Hockey association.
Herbie was key man In the attack
Of tho Duluth Hornets. 1923 cham
pions Of the A. H. A. His tricky play
Ing when he was carrying the puck
or trying to keep the opposition from
carrying 1t brought him fame as the
class Of centers: l. e., the class Of
centers outside Of Cooney Weiland.
Lewis caught the eye of scouts for
the Detroit Cougars. who promptly
recommended his purchase. Now
Herbie Is proving just as popular In
Detroit as he did in Duluth and has
been the idol Of the Michigan fans
from the start. He has been Detroit's
regular center for the greater part
Of the year.
The high scorer in his league, Wei
land came to Boston to bolster the
Bruins offensive. This he has done.
Although rated as spare, he is the
second high scorer on the club and
ranked seventh in scoring In the
American Group of the National
Hockey League at the end Of the Sec
ond months play.
Cooney has proved to be one of the
best defensive players in the league.
He Is SO good on defense that they
have made him q spare. available to
scoot out on the ice and tighten up
the Bruins defense when the team is
short one or more players from pen
alties. Wei1and's poke checking has
held off many an opposition scoring
threat until penalized players got
back into play.
More will be heard about Herbie
and Cooney as the season progresses,
especially II the Bruins and Cougars
get into the league championship
playoff.

Joe HUMPHREYS. clarion-yoiced announcer, posed SO
often with fistc celebrities that album would be
complete unless his face appeared ever and on

His face incidentally, was quite good looking one
IN the old days. as can be seen In this picture Joe,
the middle figure in the rear line, quite heart
breaker when this group posed at South Beach, N. Y,
IN the early nineties. He would hardly qualify as
Don Juan today. but nevertheless he is known to
thousands upon thousands Of fight enthusiasts.
No big fisic show in the vicinity of New York would
be complete unless HUMPHREYS shanbled through the
ropes. his jaws working industriously a cud Of
gum. and introduced everybody from the timekeeper
to the principals. Frequently Joe becomes twisted
over words OF several sylabes but this only adds to
his colorful personality.

Pleased Greatly With the Condi-

During the Visits

Governor Buck this week start
ed a tour of the various institu-

as he conceives his position, to
know at first hand how things are
being conducted, the general ap-
pearance of the buildings, and also
the conditions of the inmates and
how the states money is being ex-
pended. His decision to make Wis
its to the various institutions was
strengthened during the last ses-
sior of the legislature. Many
times in considering the merits of
appropriations for various institu-
tions, if he had known conditions
as they really exist, it would have
been a great assistance to him.
But now he is going to learn for
himself This week the Governor
visited Edgewood and Brandywine
sanitariums, and was pleased with
what he saw. II never saw a pub
lie place kept so clean, and even
many private homes as was
