tom SHAWKEY, young million
Il aire owner Of the Boston Red
Sox, says that the s250,OOO he spent
for ShortSotp Joe Cronin is good
security for 100000 he has put
into the Heantown club in the last
two years.
ITS just like buying securities,
says Yawkey. "Cronin is my Sc
curity. 1 have a big investment in
Boston. If by sinking S25O,OO0 more
into it I can make it paying in
vestment, then I've done all right.
L wanted Cronin worse than l
wanted money. 1 had more money,
but I didn't have a shortstop like
CrOnin-nOr a manager.
"Of course. everybody's right
when they say no ball player is
worth s25OOOO. Maybe Cronin in
himself isn't worth S25O,OOO. but 1
believe he's the man to make club
a championship outfit"

that time, approximately As anna
teurs will battle for the titles. Open
class winners will be sent to Chi

Fans Roar Approval
The first o. the two bouts in
which the victorS were incapacitat-
ed was between George Hoyt, FERA
battler, and Charlie Benson, Wash
ington A. c., middleweights in the
novice class.
Benson took two nine-counts in
the second round, but came back
and had Hoyt bleeding. Both we're
staggering at the bell In the third,
Benson took one in the eye, sent
Hoyt to his knees, went on the ropes
himself, went down for an eight
count and then came back fighting.
Practically every fan in the house
was standing up or screaming as
the two middleWeights finished their
brawl. HOyt gained the decision,
but was so worn out he defaulted to
team mate, Arthur McTerry, in a
later bout.
Jimmy George, Y. M. C. A. light
weight, won a close decision over
Bill Browlee, Washington A. c., in
one of the early tits, but defaulted
to Johnny Cradle, Pretzel Bell star,
who already had beaten a tough OPP
ponent in George Bills.
Jimmy Kruckemeier Wins
Two gamesters-Tomny Lefevere,
FERA, and Bob Hadley, unattached,
12-pounderS-decided they hadn't
had enough after Referee Ernie
Bonsell halted the bout near the
close of the first round. So they
climbed back in the ring and went
at it for two more rounds with Lee
fevere getting the decision. Both
got plenty of applause.
Little Jimmy Krukemeier, brother
of Johnny Krukemeier, city Open
featherweight title holder, who met
his downfall in less than one round
at last weeks tourney, carried on
for the South Side Turner's last
night by winning his way to the

The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1935-02-02

The tussle was as close as they
manufacture 'em until they swung
into the five minute mark in the
final quarter. 1t was then the
Continentals suddenly discovered
that going under the basket was
far less difficult than it appeared.
Lasley made the discovery when
he dribbled under as easy as that,
and followed up with two more
of the same thing. Dietz and
Hooser took the hint and con-
tributed a goal apiece from down
under, thus putting the score
board out of reach of the Red
skins.
1t must be said that, even in
victory, the city champions dis
played little of the style they eX-
hibited in coping the champion
ship. Ragged passing was heav-
lily INDUCED in by both teams.
Manual was in possession of the
sphere the majority of the time.
Gallamore's batting average took
a hefty slump.

Klein Asks for
2-Year Contract
Cub HoIdout Also Wants
No Salary Change.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Feb. 2.-Chuck Klein
isn't a holdout-he only wants a
two-year contract and the same
money he drew last year. That's
what the Chicago Cubs outfielder
told Manager Charlie Grimm in a
personal letter.
The Cubs aren't giving contracts
for more than one year and Klein'S
batting average of .301 last year
won't support him, in business office
estimation, in a debate over salary
figures.
Thee ubs now have signed al
players, leaving eight unsigned.

DISTRICT GAINS SET MARK.
Fifth Reserve Area Report Says
Finance Tone Good.

RICHMOND, Va, November 80 LPl.
October and early November Wit
messed more improvement in business
in the fifth Federal Reserve district
than any other six weeks in several
years, according to a report issued by
the Federal Reserve Bank of Rich.
mond today.
Employment conditions were also
viewed as more favorable in nearly
all lines of industry, especially in con-
struction fields.
The fifth districts two leading
money crops, cotton and tobacco, will
probably be more profitable this year
than in 1884. although prices this
year were lower, the report predicted.
Coal production in October was re-
ported as showing considerably more
than a seasonal increase" in compare
son with September and also exceeded
October, 1884. production by nearly
II per cent.
Building permits issued in october
in leading cities exceeded in value
the permits issued in the same month
last year by 81 per cent, and contracts
actually awarded rose 1876 per cent.
Retail trade for last month was re-
tarded by exceptionally mild weather.
but exceeded october, 1884, trade by
more than per cent, while wholesale
trade in five leading lines was re-
garded in the bank report as compar-
ing favorably on the whole with Oc-
tober of last year.
There was probably less improve
ment in the banking business than in
almost any other line, but this was
due to the ability Of business men
in general to carry on their activities
without calling on banks for much
additional assistance" the report as
serted.
