By ZOE WILLIAMS


New York WorId-Telegram Sports Editor
NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-Bill Terry,
~ manager of the New York
Giants, is making another drive for
Tex Carleton, the big highlander of
the st. Louis Cardinals.
Terry was in St. Louis the other
day comforting with Branch Hickey
and Sam Breadon, and it may be
that with 100000 as working capital,
Memphis Bill will persuade the Red
Birds to part with the singer.
Terry held out for Carleton when
he traded Bill Walker, Jim Moo
ney, Bob OFarrell and Ethan Allen
for Ray Starr and Gus Mancuso.
Bill started the conversation by
mentioning Dizzy Dean, but Hickey
stopped that Immediately. Then
Terry talked about Carleton for
something like three days, and
wound up by taking Starr.
Last summer it was reported that
the Cardinals had offered to trade
Carleton, and that they had named
$4,000 in cash as an essential in
the transaction. Since then the
player market has slumped bit
and it is possible that Terry's offer
will swing the deal.
In any event, Terry is not adopt
ing complacent and satisfied at
titude. He appreciates that his
pitching staff needs more authority.
II
PHILADELPHIA experts say that
l. George EarnshaW wants to be
traded. But Connie Mack insists
that he meant what he said when,
after having sold Simmons, Haas
and Dykes to the White SOX he an
nounce6 that no more regulars
would be disposed of until after
the 1888 campaign.
All of which is bad news for
Cleveland. For while the dope had
Earnshaw headed for the Yanks, the
Indians would have a better chance
if Mack decided to get rid of the
veteran.
1t seems to be the fashion around
the country just now to ask, whats
wrong with basebaH?" When Judge
Lands arrived in Arizona for his
health some days ago, reporters
asked the same old question. He had
the solution.
Whats wrong with baSeball?"
The high commissioner laughed. IF
you will tell me what's wrong with
industry with the theater, with the
