Today the same pin outfit boasts %
wins and % losses and still hasn't q

And Mort King, captain, has no def

ing 20 of their last 81 games In one OF
the city's fastest loops and numbering
among their victims the National Pale
Drys, Farnan's Shoes and Northeast
Temple Kings only explanation Is
that the team Is clicking.
Even so, to most bowling fans 1t may
require vigorous stretching OF the
Imagination to picture the Pale Drys
losing two games to team which does
not include on its roster single star.
WHEN Kings Palace dropped l6 OF
w its first 1S games, it appeared as
though the club was ticketed Tor
q sure last place. But Mort King, Dave
Cox, Watts, Estabrook, Charlie Phillips,
AL Popkins and Joe Toorey have that
club out Of the cellar plenty high and
dry. After losing enough games TO
blast for sure their title chances this
starless crew knocked of Barnes and

then won 2-to-l victories over Takoma

.R0USH HAS PLENTY
AS He LEAVES GAME
Decides to Take Release Rather
Than Be Utility Player at
Small Salary.
BY the Associated Presk.

BY the Associated Press
CINCINNATI, Ohio, January 13,-
Eddie Roush, the Reds greatest center
fielder, idol of Cincinnati fans, has
stepped out of the base ball picture.
Independently wealthy, Roush &C
cepted unconditional release rather
than fill utility role AZ a small salary.
The veteran outfelder said he had
enough money to retire.
Roush reached the peak Of brilliancy
during the lsl7-ls24 seasons. He was
the spark plug of the Reds only world
championship team in 1919 and led
the National League in batting in 1917
and 1919. His greatest offensive year
was 1921, when he batted .352.
In 1927 Roush was traded TO the
Giants for George Kelley, first base
man, but remained out of base ball
in 1880 as a result of salary differences
with the Giants. He was handicapped
last year by the layotf and slowed down
in fielding as well as batting.

CLEVELAND LACKS
NEW BALL TALENT
Indians to Make 1882 Race
With Same Outfit They
Had Last Year.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
~LEvELAND, January ls.-When
the Cleveland base ball club
" goes South i've weeks from
now IL will be just about the
same OUTFIT. bright spots, furnishes and
all. that opened so hopefully year ago.
The Tribesmen romped to the front
of the league last May. But their re-
verses began with a succession Of de-
feats at the hands Of the Athletics and
there was no stopping them until they
had slipped back to fourth place.
If they do any better the coming
season 1t will be because two or three
OF the stars refurbish their shields and
one or two promising youngsters earn
their spurs.
Wes FerreIl Is Best Bet.
Manager Roger Peckinpaushs bright
est spot is Pitcher Wesley Ferrell. The
North Carolinian Is supposed TO have
had not so good a year last season. At
times he resembled brokendowr phe-
nomenon. especially after he pitched
one Of the seasons two no-hit games.
But he won az games and thus became
the firss young pitcher since 1918 to
win 20 or more games In each of his
first three seasons. In addition, he
set a couple of batting records for
pitchers, hitting homers and driving
In 30 tallies.
1t is the infield that is giving Peck
inpaugh headache. But II Third
Baseman Willie Kamm, brought in late
in the season, continues to deliver the
goods the situation here Is better by
one-fourth than 1t was last year.
Eddie Morgan who finished high In
the batting averages, is back because
the Indians were unable to trade him
anywhere. But his first base Job Is at
stake. If Bruce Connatser, recruit
from New Orleans, is able to perform
with the bat he probably will displace
the former Tulane star as q hrSt sack
or, and he has shown proWess In the
past with that weapon.
In that event Morgan will go back
to hy-chasing, where the Cleveland
outer garden already boasts such luni-
naries as Joe Vosmik, Earl Averill and
Dick Porter
Montague Again at Short.
Peckinpaugh hoped to get = good
shortstop for Morgan. Failing, he prob
ably will rely upon young Eddie Mon
tague Montague could hold up his end
Of the combination, despite inexperi-
ence, if he were paired wish the right
second baseman, Peck says.
Johnny Hodapp, at second, had an un-
fortunate year. II he gets rid of his
charley-horse and plays his corking
game of 1890, when he had .354 bat
ting average and league record for
assists, he may make the Indians 4
factor In the pennant race. If he
doesn't the Indians probably will fall
back on Johnny Burnett.
