Rupert Anxious to Discuss
Situation; Hoyt Also
Causes Trouble.
BY L. s. CAMERON
Emitted Press STAFF Correspondent

NEW YORK, Jan. 29.-Although
New York Yankee officials declare
Manager Bob Shawkey's hurried
trip from Miami, Fla, is prompted
by his desire to attend the annual
baseball writer's dinner here Sun
dav. a conference between Shawkey,
Secretary Ed Barrow and Colonel
Jacob Rupert owner OF the YanKs'
has been scheduled for Friday.
Rupert is anxious to discuss the
Babe Ruth situation, and it Is ex-
pected that an official announce
ment will be made after the meet
ing.
Dislikes Spring Tour
Ruth has rejected the Yankee
offer of a two-year contract at
SIS. 900 a season and is demanding
s85. 900 per season for three years.
The Babes desire to be excused from
exhibition games is a major point
of disagreement and may delay his
signing until after the Yanks finish
their spring tour OF thirty-tWo
games.
Waite Hoyt furnished a second
problem for the Friday conference.
The veteran pitcher has been asked
to accept a salary cut. which Bar
row denies is from S16,500 to $4,000,
am has joined Ruth as a holdout.
Detroit Wants Hoyt
Stanley Harris, manager Of the
Detroit Tigers, is anxious to secure
Hoyt and it is reported that the
Yanks have been trying TO make a
deal whereby they would secure
pitcher Owen Carroll and outfleld-
er Harry Rice for Hoyt.
This report has been denied by
both clubs.
Tom Clark has been engaged by
the New York Giants to coach
young pitchers at their San Antonio
training camp. Last season, he
managed the Chambersburg club
of the Blue Ridge League.
Three American League clubs
will number their players this sea-
son, Cleveland and Washington
having adopted the plan introduced
last season by the Yankees.
Twenty of the thirty-eight New
York Giant players have returned
their 1880 contracts. Fred Fitzsim-
MONS oio I-ioht-honded nitcher is
the latest addition. Bill Walker,
the only announced holdout, was
offered an increase over his 1929
salary, but considered It inadequate.
Directors of the Brooklyn National
League baseball club will meet next
week in an attempt to agree on
the selection of 1880 president
and manager.
