RING SPORT
 IS BANNED BY LANDS
Baseball Players May Not Be Pugilists-Answer
 Is to Shires

CHICAGO, Jan. 28-Judge Kene- saw Mountain Landis, commissioner of baseball, has issued ruling in which he held that any baseball player who engaged in professional boxing would be regarded as having retired permanently from organized baseball.
 The ruling was announced after Landis had interviewed Ar h r Shires, the White Sox first base man, who had made $l0,000 recent ly as a professional pugilist.
 Judge Landis ruling was as fol- lows:
 Thereafter any persons connected with any club of this organization who engage in professional boxing will be regarded as having perma nently retired from baseball. The two activities do not mix"
 Shires is not disqualified as a baseball player because of his pro fessional ring career to date, al- { though he already is under suspen- sion by both his club and LandiS because of his bad boy antics dur ing the 1929 season.
 Landis did not co m m e nt on whether he would lift that suspen- sion in event Shires gives up box ing and reforms as a ball player.

Interest Is Aroused in
 Ten-Mdn Ball Club Plan
By GEORGE CHADWICK

NEW YORK, Jan. 28-When the boys gather around the hotel lob bies and on the playing fields in few weeks at the spring training camps there will be a lot of con- versation churned up about the ten man baseball team.
 This suggestion was made by President Hydler of the National League and it is fact that in baseball circles right now increasing interest is being displayed in the Subject.
 The ten-man team idea has not met overwhelming endorsement be- cause it involves very radical change in the national game.
 Modification Suggested This observer herewith presents a suggested modification of the rules tof baseball which would do much to give pitchers a fair deal and would put an end to the strategy by which managers deliberately try to force strong pitcher out of the box, or by which manager sacri- ! fees strong pitcher to gamble on one batter and a possible victory.
 Rule 28, Section 2, now reads: Any such substitute at any stage of the game, except when the ball is in play, may take the place of player whose name is in his teams batting order. but the player whom he succeeds shall not there after participate in that game" Now add to this section the fol- lowing new clause:
 Except that the pitcher of the team first at bat remain in the game to it's completion if a substi- ltute batter and only a substitute batter has been inserted after the last half Of the seventh inning has been played; and that the pitcher of the team second at bat may remain in the game if a substitute Ddttcl anu Oilly d SQUoOAIulC DatGC1 take his place after the last half of the sixth inning has been played
 i This would provide that pitcher might have a pinch@hitter bat for him in the eighth or ninth innings if the team were first at bat, and in the seventh or eighth innings if the team were second at bat. | Could Go Route
 In other words very good pitch CT could pitch full games as he should be entitled to pitch if he were beyond the half way mark A base on balls has been given more than once to bring up the pitcher as the next batsman, not only because the pitcher might not be a good batter but because the opposing manager hoped that the pitcher would be lifted from the game for a pinch hitter

JIM MALONEY
 ASKS S15,0O0
 FOR RING MIX
Price Stands Between Him and Uzcudun- Garden
 Trying for Bout

NEW YORK, Jan 28.-If Jim Maloney of Boston will agree to take less than S15,O0O for a ten round bout with Paolino Uzcudun, Matchmaker Tom McArdle of Madi- son Square garden will be in a po- sition to give that Sharkey- Scott thing at Miami on February 27 some of the support it needs so badly.
 Billy Gibson has agreed to let the Basque fight Maloney. Dan Carroll, Jim's manager. on the other hand, didn't like the way the supposedly washed-up woodchopper manhandled Otto van Porat here l recently and that is why he is de- manding a guarantee of S15,000 as Jimmv's end.
 Victorio Csmpo'o has been ap- pointed an alternate for the Miami i fight. If either Sharkey or Scott contract parrot fever or some other 1 dllIIlGllJ DC1OiC lAlC blliAA6 OOAAACo OAA Campolo will be tossed into the breach.
 Campolo has been matched with Johnny Risko for either February or IA at the Garden The original date was February IA but in view of the fact Risko is fighting Signor Bertazzola in Cleveland soon, and Ace Hudkins wants his fight with Maxie Rosenbloom, now scheduled for February 2, set back one week the Garden is trying to shuffle both cards to the satisfaction of all parties concerned
 Risko, it will be recalled, was held in reserve to substitute foi Tom Heeney when he was matched to fight Gene Tunney two years ago, but nothing untoward hap pened to Tom until he climbed into the ring.

Speaking of winning streaks, the greatest of them all, one that has lasted over a stretch of 79 years, will be at stake this year when Yankee yachtsmen defend the his- toric Americas Cup against the challenge of the famous Irishman tea merchant, Sir Thomas Upton.
 This famous yacht racing trophy first was won by America in Brit ish waters in 1851 and has been kept here ever since, in spite of a bakers dozen challenges. When English sportsmen gave up the quest, Sir Thomas Lipton carried on but the results have always been the same.
 It was just 30 years ago that Lip ton challenged with his Shamrock II. Successive challenges in 1901, 1903, and 1920 also ended in fail ure for the famous Irish sports man. He has spent millions in an attempt to lift the ancient trophy and it is estimated that his outfit ting of the Shamrock V for the 1880 races, to be held off Newport in September, will cost upwards Of another million.

BOSTON, Mass, Jan 28.-"Tiny Thompson, goalie supreme of the National hockey league, may have a new sobriquet one of these days and it probably will be Stone wall"
 "Stonewall" Thompson would be a fair description of the marve- lously fast working goalie who has played mighty part in the un- precedented pace set by the world champion Bruins this year. Trying to shoot the puck past Thompson has proven about as satisfactory $ trying to put it through a stone wall
 Tt isn't generally known that he is Scotch" chuckles Manager Art Ross. And that is why he is un- willing to give away goals"
 But all humor aside. Ross insists that Thompson is the greatest goalie he has ever seen. Records for the first 20 games played by the Bruins reveal Thompson's rec ord as the leagues best. Tiny allowed only 2.4 goals per game The record of no other goalie ap- breaches this average.
 Thompson, who came originally from West Calgary. Alberta, played with Bellevue, Duluth and Mime arolis before he came to Boston He was an instant success in the National hockey league.
 The Bruins began the 1929-3( season by winning IS games anc losing but two, and including g winning streak of 13 straight.
 Tiny is remarkably fast on his feet, a very heady player anc probably clears the puck faster than any goalie in the league. Re peatedly he is clear out to his blue line, giving his players breaks on rushes which they frequently turn into scores.
 The story of "Tiny's" great work in the nets this season and the winning streak of the Bruins is told in the scores of the l3 victories which follow: Canadiens, 3-1; De- troit, 2-1; Pittsburgh, 5-4; Otta- wa. 3-2; Americans, 8-4; Ottawa So: Chicago. Al; Toronto, 6-2 Rangers. Az; Canadiens, 3-2; Amer jeans, 5-2; Montreal, Az; Rangers 3-0

The Americas Cup had an un- usual origin It seems that it just happened to acquire international importance through the victory of the Yankee sloop, America. over the British Aurora in regatta off the Isle of Wight in 1851 The cup in- volved in this event was simply one of the numerous cups offered by the Royal Yacht Squadron for un- limited competition.
 Afterward, one of the stories was that Queen Victoria, who witnessed the race and the Americas victory, gave the trophy it's present name. Another contention is that it was named the Americas Cup by en-
