ON THE SIDE LINES
With the Sports Editor
BY DENMAN THOMPSON=

Lou Little of the Hoyas and Jack
McAuliffe of the Cardinals.
It~ GOD eats and all that goes
~ That's the line that
caught our eye in a letter re-
ceiyed from "Referee" AL Sharp
Of the Grand Stand Coaches Club,
inviting us to a gathering of the foot
ball clan at the Bannockburn Golf
Club next Saturday eve.
The eats part is attractive enough,
but if any further incentive toere
needed for acceptance OF the BID It
could be found in the "Gll that goes
Nth it," especially NTH Kip Ed
yards, Cy Macdonald and Sam Ed
Honston Officiating as umpire, head
lineSman and field Judge, reSpec-
tiUely.
II is hereby confidentiaIly pre-
dicted that the eats will be thrown
for a loss" and that all that goes
with it will be taken out Of the
play"
Wy HETHER III was due to the
w ingenuity Af Promoter VIII
liam HaaTaiAon Dempsey or
the enterprise OF Acting General
Manager Hammond of the Garden,
the round trip for the price of
one-way ticket to Miami Beach
agreed to by the railroads isn't CAL
culated to hurt the Sharkey-Strib-
linz Sh0vv YaYt month
But we still can't figure out how
the expectations for a half-million-
dollar gate can be realized.
II X 4 y
TINE base ball moguls have taken
the precaution of drafting two
4 major league playing sched-
ules, pending disposition of the row
raised over Sunday base ball in
Boston, but it is likely that which
lists Sabbath contests at the Hub
will be found in use when the
charges of corruption are disposed OF.
The American League Red Sor,
tDho haze not been tnuolUed IN the
controversy, are confident their petit
ton will be granted By the city conn-
Gil, and it is highly improbable IN
that case that the Braves applied
ton will be denied.
Regardless of which schedule is
employed, the Washington club will
be affected only TO the extent that
some of the Sunday contests usually
played with the Red Sox here would
be shifted to Boston under the new
arrangement.

is third high to date. Like Mandley,
Santini considers the Coliseum as his
home establishment for he finds time
for a few games each day there when
his duties as merchant in Center
Market permit him.
Another dark horse entrant is within
reach of the big money. Oliver Pacini,
who finished among the leaders in the
recent Evening Star tournament, is
trailing in fourth place with l,l74.
Paulie Harrison, after a discouraging
start, shot his way into fifth place with
lib by topping the field Saturday
night with the second highest five-game
set OF the current sweepStakes-629
Jack Wolstenholme, who brought his
total to Ito on Saturday night, is
sixth, with good chance to figure In
the cash awards.
Make Rosenberg, who was picked by
many to lead the field on the strength
OF his phenomenal success this season,
is still in the race with l,167. A 95
count in his last game Saturday night
showed him into seventh place. Howard
Campbell, who was runner-up last year,
will have to come from behind as he
did last year to get in the money.
Many Of the stars are well down the
list with little chance Of sharing in
cash. Only q sensational upset would
bring Glenn Wolstenholme, AL Work,
Glen Weidman, AL Fischer. Jack
down the list. to the top. Strange
enough. the man who finished fourth
last year is trailing the field at present.
Claude Cowles, who trailed Henry
Hiser last year. has been unable to get
started, averaging 1898 for 10 games.
Oscar Hiser is carrying on for his
brother Henry, who was seriously in
jured in an automobile accident last
week All contestants agreed to per-
NIT the younger .Hiser to compete in
the second and third blocks.

II Army K. BUHINEH, the Con-
vention Hall team captain,
leader of the Howard Campbell
4 i sweepstakes field, was coaxed
into the affair. Hap had prac-
tically decided to pass up the chance
to share in the big purse. His chances
of taking first money now are good. as
he assumed 23-pin lead over Brad
Mandley Saturday night.
Burtner had been in slump of sew
eral months duration prior to the open
ing of the sweepstakes. The night be-
fore opening of the 15-game purse
event, he failed to break 800 for Con-
vention Hall against King Pin in a
District League match. Hap was ready
to admit he had no business in the
sweepstakes and some of his friends
had to use strong persuasion to induce
him to get in line.
AL Gardner and BURNERS Convention
Hall teammates are pleased to see the
captain of the District League cham
pionship team returning to form. A
victory for Hap in the sweepstakes
would do much to restore his oldtlme
confidence.
Hap faces big task next Saturday
night as the final flve-game block OF the
sweepstakes goes on the boards at
Coliseum. His chief rivals at the close
of the second block-Bradley Mandley
and Tony Santini-are both partial to
the Krauss-managed establishment.
Mandley, q member of Stanford Paper
Co team Of District League, has rolled
more 400 or better sets at the Coliseum
than he has on any other drives in the
city. He is always right on the Coliseum
drives and 23-pin handicap may be
overcome should Hap fail to keep his
pace.
Santini is but pins removed from
Mandley. Tony has been the big sur
prise of the sweepstakes. He followed
his 624 set at Convention Hall with
$40 at King Pin No. !. His LIZA total

BY KENNETH f. SANDERS,

~LEvELAND, January 21.-The
Cleveland Indians will enter
Y the 1929 campaign non-con1-
~ initial on their prospects, but
hoping for the best from one
of the most thoroughly overhauled line
ups in the American League.
I'VE hope we have better club than
last year." was the only comment forth
coming from Billy Evans, general man
ager of the Tribe and he admitted that
the Redskins could fare much better
this season and still not be much of
an improvement over last years seventh
place outfit.
Outside of the moundsmen, only the
veteran Charley Jameson in left field,
Carl Lind at second base and Luke
Sewell behind the bat will be found in
their customary positions as the Tribe
now stacks up on paper. Gone are
George Burns, George Uhle, Homer
Summa and lesser lights of the Tribe
of other years.
Porter and Averhill Costly.
The seemingly eternal hunt for sue
cessor to Iris Speaker has resulted in
the purchase of Dick Porter from Balti-
more and Earl Averhill from San Fran
CISCO both slugging outfielders, who cost
$45,000 each. With the sale of Summa
to Philadelphia and the release of
Gerkin, Langford and others. the way
is paved for Porter and Averhill to
patrol the outfield with Jameson.
Ollie Tucker of New Orleans, Charley
Dorman, from Tyler, Tex, and John
Gill, from Decatur, may help.
Lind will be back at second, but an
otherwise revamped infield will find
Sewell shifted from short to third,
Johnny Hodapp moved from third to
first, and Tavener, obtained with Pitcher
Kenneth Holloway from Detroit for
George Uhle, is slated for short. Rockies
will include First Baseman Glenn Boil
ton, from Terre Haute; Shortstop John
Burnett, teamn1ate Of Bottoms. and
Ray Gardner of New Orleans, who was
the Southern Associations leading
shortstop last year.
Catching Staff Unchanged.
The catching department will remain
the same-Luke Sewell, Myatt and
Autry.
Hudlin, Miller, Miljus, Grant, Shaute
and Underhill are holdover hurlerS
available to Manager Roger Peckin-
paugh. He looks for further assistance
| from among such players as Holloway,
Jimmy linn, who in five of the last
six years has won 20 or more games a
season for Kansas City in the American
Association James Moore Of Little Rock,
who led the Southern Association in
pitching last year, and Wesley Ferrell
who pitched 20 victories last year for
Terre Haute. AL the newcomers are
right-handers.
| The Indians, alone among all big
league teams, will remain in their train
| ing camp until they start North for the
opening. Believing that heavy prac-
| tice schedule takes more from the team
| than it adds to the treasury, the Tribes
mentors will hold them in New Orleans
until the. first game There they WIZ
meet all corners, but will do no travel
