 New York, Dec 14.-UP)-The annual major league baseball meet ings--swung into their second day with the rumor market doing a brisk business.
 The rumor that the boys talked about most involved the St Louis Browns and the Washington Sena- tors.
 Under the proposed deal--which both teams actually admit is a pos- sibility--the senators would offer Carl Reynolds, centerfielder, Joe Judge, first baseman, and Harley Ross, utility first baseman, in ex- change for Goose Goslin, outfielder, George Blaeholder, right-handed pitcher and Walter Stewart, south paw hurler.
 Both Joe Cronin. youthful man. ager of the senators, and Bill Kille- fer. pilot of the Browns, had the matter under consideration early today.
 Shortly after midnight Killefer said he and Cronin had just con- cluded a conference.
 The Browns manager told the United Press that neither side has decided anything definite" but that i've still are thinking of such a trade and will probably have an announcement later in the day." Other rumors were substantiated by nothing more than the smokey lobby air. The prize wholesale swap advo- cated by the lobbyists had the Brooklyn Dodgers. New York Giants and Philadelphia Phillies engaged in triple trade that in- cluding the mascots and enough cash to settle the combined war debts.
 The rumorists also said that all clubs but the Yankees are ready to trade all its Ivory" but the bat. boys and groundkeepers.

Make Hirsch has asked the rae

not be if failure follows their
activities.
Yanks Are Tough
Although the Yanks have not
been met yet, all indications point
to the fact that they're going to
be as tough to defeat this year
as the AS. A very good reason is
this: The Mccarthy men are quite
like the AS when it comes to slug
ging. With such clouters as Byrd,
Ruth, Gehrig, Chapman and
Dickey in their lineup, not to men
tion Larry and the two youngsters,
Crosetti and Saltzgaver, the team
possesses a batting lineup that can
win for its pitchers regardless of
how off-form they might hurl.
Therefore, it appears as if the
Griffs are faced with the propo-
Sition of outhitting as we'll as out
pitching the Yanks when they
face them in those ever-important
six engagements. Will Manager
Johnson's men come through? Will
they get both the hitting and
pitching necessary? This Is
question which must be decided.
May Dame Fortune smile on
them if she has ever been
known to smile.
The Washington times., 1932-04-19

OF these ID engagements, II are
against the AS and Yanks, includ.
ing today's encounter which will
close this present series with
Connie Mack's men until the re.
opening of another next week.
The other three games are, of
course, against the Boston Red
Sox.
Just what may be expected of
the Griffs this year can be told
after the II contests against the
AS and YankS. An even break
or better will mean that the team
is to be figured as a pennant
contender for, a little while at
least.

Griffs are not quite strong enough

Manager Johnson's men begin
their test next Sunday when the
series with the Toston Red Sox,
starting Wednesday and lasting
through Saturday, will have been
completed.
The AS will be the opponents

FAIR FAN HURLS
SHOE At VARGO

Wrestling struck a new low al
the conclusion of the Joe Vargo
Danny winters match at the Bol
ling Field armory last night.
The match, the best of the eve
ming, was exciting throughout and
neither grappler wasted love pats
on the other. It ended in 80
minute draw, though both were
willing to continue all night.
Fair Fan Is Furious
A lady spectator, who had de-
nounced the unethical manners
of Vargo, became furious when
Vargo refused to shake hands
with the handsome Danny Win
ters, who styles himself the "Kin-
dergarten Kid"
This fair fan actually wanted
to lay hold of Vargo and box his
ears but several rows of Specta-
tors were between her and the
none too handsome Vargo. So
she removed her shoe and flipped
it at Vargo, but her aim was
poor.

Gave Money Back

Schmeling sat in the club cal
on the opposite side from the
station, refusing to put in an ap.
pearance, and the demands of
his greeters soon changed to
teerS. In Fortress Monroe Fri
day night, there were so few
fans in the arena where he was
supposed to exhibit, that he re-
fused to go in the ring and
money was refunded to the GUS
toners.
In bad times such as these
when any performer needs to
exert every ounce of personal
appeal at his command to keep
his racket alive, Schmeling
could have done worse than 20
have gone on" for nothing,
since his time and money al
ready had been spent going TO
Fortress Monroe-and in fact
he did so worse than that
much worse.
These incidents are a forecast
as to the probable turnout for
the big fight next June at the
new Madison Square Garden
arena now under construction.
They are also proof positive Of
the low estate to which the
prize fight industry has fallen,
and the one who should do the
most to correct such a situation
-Schmeling-is doing every
thing humanity possible to sink
his profession to even lower
depths than it now finds itself.
