CH|SOX-TR|BE DEAL
MAY SHIFT KAMM
Indians Appear Ready to Give
Fonseca for Good Third
Stacker.
ny FRANCIS J. POWERS.

~HIcAdo. Decemher "a trade
between the Chicago White
u Sox and Cleveland Indians,
involving Thiyd Bassman Bill
Kamm and Lew FonEeca, the handy
Andy of the Tribes innsld, may be
completed during the American League
meeting in New York next week.
There have been runlors of Fonseca
going to st. Louis and Kamm travelling
to New York, but many base ball men
believe a swap between Cleveland and
Chicago is most likely. And such q
trade would benefit both clubs.
The Indians have little further use
for Fonseca and the White 6ox can
get along nicely without Kamm. Eddie
Morgan has securely established him
self at first base for the Indians and
there is no change OF Fonseca oustlng
Hodapp at second.
With ample pinch hitting power on
the bench, Peckinpaugh would have no
real need of Fonseca next season. Kamm
is only .270 hitter and while a def
and graceful fielder is far from being
the aggressive and eolorful player de-
sired by DOME Bush in his efforts to
rebuild the Sox.
Indians Could Use Kamm.
At Cleveland, Kamm would be o
valuable man. The Indians are Q pow.
erful batting club and easily could carry
.2T0 hitter provided he could I'LL the
defensive gap at third base; and that
Kamm could do.
Bill has been with the Sox since 1898.
when he came up from San Francisco
with price tag Of 100000 around his
neck. Perhaps change Of scenery and
chance to play on Q potential PEN
nant winner might inspire him to be a
better player than he ever was with
Chicago.
The Sox could use Fonseca nicely ct
either first or second base. Lew Is ne
figure of grace and style around second,
but he would be an improvement over
anything the Sox have and the hefty
batting average he annually churns
would produce many runs and offset
some of his fielding errors.
FOnseca Likes Chisox Park.
Fonseca always has hit we'll on the
White Sox field. It was there on May
20, 1929, that he hit two home runs
and two triples in four times at bat
for total Of IL bases. The left field
seats at Com1Skey Park are FonSeca
favorite target and he should better
Kamm's normal batting average by al
least SO or 90 points.
With Fonseca batting behind Carl
Reynolds, the fleet Sox outAelder, who
pounded out $50 average last season.
the Hose would be insured Of more runs
than they are accustomed to score.
Cleveland likely will put Joe Sewell
on the market during the New York
meeting. Joe still Is q good hitter, but
he has slowed up to such an extent
that he no longer Is of much use at
third or short, but he might be picked
up by some team needing a good pinch
hitter and utility man, 1t Is reported
the Tribe also win offer Bib Falk on
the market and that both Detroit and
Philadelphia viii attempt to obtain the
Texan. Bib Is q strong hitter and
would help the attack Of either the
Tigers or Mackmen.

A CCORDING to official sta
N tistics the Nationals had
IL the highest pitching in the
American League the past
season. Collectively, the Wash
ingten pitchers yielded an aver
age of but 1896 earned runs per
nine innings, the only staff to
limit opposing teams to less than
four runs per game,
Next to Washingten's, the Philadel-
phia staff was most effective, but the
hurlers of the Athletics were nicked for
an average of 4.30 earned tallies per
nine innings. Back Of the Nationals
staff, the seven other pitching corps
were closely punched In this respect.
The ranking pitcher of the league
was Bob Grove, big left-hander of the
world champion AS. In SO games he
won 20 and lost 5, for rating of .S48
With an average yield of three earned
runs per nine innings he also was
strongest on this basis.
Oddly, a pitcher who had a rather
unsuccessful season with the Nationals,
ranked second to Grove in the earned-
runs-yielded class. Ad Liska, the un-
derhander, who won nine games and
lost seven,s hurled ISL innings, with a
season average of s.28 earned runs per
nine innings.
Fred Marberry was the big winner for
the Nationals. He won Is games and
lost 3, thereby finishing with a rating
OF $50, Fred won q game on June 20
and did not lose another until his final
TO Irving Hadiey's relief and was
charged with the loss to the Indians.
But Fred had scored IL wins in row.
In Washingten's big four with Mar
berry were Sam Jones, Haaley and
Lloyd Brown. Jones and Hadley each
won is games, but Jones finished with
q percentage Of $50. while Hadley's was
SIT. Brown won 10 games, more than
any other Washington hurier. but the
left-hander's final percentage was .571.
Grove appeared In the most games,
SO, and won the most games, %. Ted
Lyons of the White Sox pitched the
most innings, 29a, the largest number
Of complete games, 80, and won "a
games, more than one-third of the
games won by hts team, which never
was out Of seventh place.
Among notable pitching performances
were W sley Ferrell's record against the
AS. T. Tribe huFler beat Comics
team five ines and was licked by it
twice. Ferre.. also pitched IS wins IN
arrow. Earl Whitehill scored II straight
victories for the hfth-place Tigers.
Walter Stewart Of the Browns beat the
Nationals i've times and never was
beaten by them.
There were no no-hit or one-hit
games, but four two-hit games were
hurled. Mllt Castor and Ed Morris
each pitched one for the Red Sox and
Charley Ruling, after going to the
Yankees from the Red Sex, pitched two.
All In all, there was much good pitch
ing in the league In the 1880 campaign.

management that children 10, IL and

draft problem. and If possible, reach
an agreement.
VIII Decide Next Week.
It seemed probable the next chapter
in the story would be written ut New
York next week at the joint major
league meeting. Few observers here,
however. were willing TO hazard q guess
on what form the majors reply wouia
take. Club owners OF the FIVE non-dTafk
leagues themselves were about evenly
divided on the question. Some took
the position that tina majors WOULD
not recede from their position and that
the rival groups would have to get
along without each other. Others were
equally confident that q eompremiss
would be reached in the near future.
II the draft dispute did nothing else,
1t managed to keep trades down 10 Q
minimum. Major league representa-
tives now can do no business with the
International and Pacific Coast Leagues
and the American Association, and It
Is from these organizations that most
major league rockies have come in the
past.

MINORS ASK TRUCE

Request Majors to Change

No Trades Seen.
BY HERBERT W. BARKER,


n n ONTREAL, December 3.-The
mn draft question tossed back int
wv the laps Of the majors. minol
league club owners turned
their attention today TO the first ses-
sion of the twenty-ninth annual con-
vention of the National Association Of
Professional Base Ball Leagues.
Election of offlcers, appointment Of

election of Q new National Board OF

first day. 1t seemed possible that the
draft. sole topic among the delegates

be mentioned in the associations SEES

Next Move Majors.
Elsewhere, however, base bail men
tried to guess just where the heated dis
pute between the majors and the five
non-draft leagues would lead. The next
move in the complex controversy must
come from the majors as result of a
resolution adopted by the non-draft
leagues affected-the International, Pa
cifc Coast, American Association. West
ern League and Three-Eye League.
They offered to enter into new negotia-
lions with the majors provided the lat
ter withdrew within is days their threat
to discontinue all business relations with
the affected minors.
In brief, the non-draft circuits are
ready to confer with the majors or
the big leagues demand that they
become subject to the draft, but only
over their heads. If the majors with With
draw their ultimatun, then the minors
will appoint q committee to discuss with
