Schultz for Hildebrand?

r ATE this afternoon Griffith had
IL third conference scheduled.
He was to meet Billy Evans and
Walter johnson, respectively, busi-
ness manager and field general of
the Cleveland Indians. In this gab-
fest the traders were expected to dis
cuss the exchange of Fred Schultz,
Washington outfielder, and Oral Hill
debrand, star right-hand hurler.
Although the Indians got from the
Browns at the Louisville meeting

are on the lookout for more strength

Schultz, both Evans and Johnson
figure, would stand them in good
stead and it is understood they are
prepared to lend an ear to what
overtures Griffith may make in his
effort to land Hildebrand for the
Nationals.
The Washington club, more than
any other in the American League, is
expected to put through some start
ling deals before this week ends. If
Griffith gets away with half rumor
has him about to attempt this will
indeed be a profitable trip for the

Dykes and Griff Confer,

n TORE progress was anticipated in
.lV another conference in which
Griffith and Jimmy Dykes,
manager of the lowly White Sox, were
principals. Those professedly in the
know concerning the Chicago clubs
workings are saying that the transfer
from the White Sox to the Nationals
of Leslie Tietje, young right-hand
pitcher, is all but completed.
This is the deal that Griffith at
tempted to put through while he and
Harris were at the minor meetings
in Louisville last month. At that
time Luke Sewell, veteran catcher,
was offered as the bait to land Tietje
The White Sox wanted Sewell, but at
the time thought he was not enough
to- get in return for the pitcher re-
gafded their best young prospect.
1t seems that since the Louisville
conclave the White Sox powers-that-
be have reconSidered. With their club
so desperately in need of first-class
catcher, they appear willing to part
with almost anything in stock to land
Sewell. This being the case, Griffith
might get not only Tietje, but also an
other player for his old-timer.
Griffith says he is here to get his
club a pair of pitchers and is pre-
pared to pay well for the desired
material. But once he plunges into
the trading market, the Old Fox i'm
mediately becomes shrewd bargainer.
Before he gets through with the
White Sox or any other club he may
deal with he may slip across such a
barter as that famous one of 1880
when he lifted from the Browns the
sterling Manush and the hardy Alvin
CroWder in exchange for Goose GoSlin.
They're wary of Griffith, these sup
posedly hardened dealers in base ball
ivory. But he has persuasive way
with him and if the men he is doing
business with are not careful he is
apt to talk them out of a good part
of a ball club in trade for nothing
more than flrst-class bat boy.

VAR be It from us to attempt to
answer the old debate-could
preat wa rSitv o1ova,, hoof eyooA


~ answer the old debate-could a
great varsity eleven beat a good
professional team?-but we can
record excerps of an observation by
one Of the shrewdest foot ball coaches
in this sector.
Dutch Bergman of Catholic Uni
versity leans toward the pros. Why?
ITO begin with" points out Dutch,
"a foot ball player doesn't reach his
peak until he is "a or rs years old.
At that age, out of 10 collegians
are graduated. We-college coaches
usually get 'em at about 10. Very
few of them know what it is all about
when they first start playing college
foot ball.
Foot bali isn't a game that can
be learned in a few hours, and the
average player, who has played three
years with varsity team, is gradu-
ated with not more than six hours of
actual foot ball competition behind
him. That isn't enough. He is
just beginning to learn.
"The pros, you'll find, average
about 26 or 81 years old. They
know most Of the questions and
answers. They are too experienced,
too calloused to excitement. Great
as are Alabama, Minnesota and
Stanford, I'd string along with the
Chicago Bears or New York Giants
IL 1t ever came to a showdown"
