|MASELL| WINS
N.Y, TITLE

NEW YORK, March 12.-Six-
teen thrilled young men reigned
today as the champions of New
York's greatest annual boxing
tournament for amateurs
Golden Gloves.
More than 10000 customers
jammed Madison Square Garden
to witness the event. the result of
five weeks of eliminations. The 18
bouts on the program were packed
with the fierce action and dy-
manic exchanges which have be-
come synonymous with the tour
ney.
George Maselli scored two we'll
earned victories over dogged op-
ponents to clinch the heavyweight
sub-novice title, and an A. A. U.
committee awarded him the Yale
Okun Trophy for the outstanding
performance of the evening.

QUEEN Of VICE
THREATENS To
BLOW LID

NEW YORK, March IL G.N.S0.
BejeWeled and mink-clad Polly
Adler, keeper of the city's most
expensive bordello, today occupied
the spotlight of New York's vice.
gambling-bail bond investigation
as the cleanup drive went ahead
unabated in spite of death
threats to grand jurors and prose
cutorS.
AS the hour for her appearance
in women's court drew near, the
alleged queen of vice threatened
to "blow the lid off" if she is not
given a square deal. She declared
she would make public the names
in her little black book" if she Is
made "the goat of this investiga-
ton"
Great UneaSineSs
Therein lies a great deal of un-
easiness for many citizens of this
town because the little black book,
according to District Attorney
Dodge, contains "a million dollars
in potential blackmail."
The book is register of the
visitors-many of them distin-
guished in widely varied walks Of
life-who have called at the Adler
woman's luxurious East Fifty
fifth Street rental harem. 1t
was seized when Polly and two of
her beauties were arrested there
at the outset of the vice drive.
1t will be destroyed, Police Com
missioner Valentine promised.
Threats Futile
Although nine possible wit
nesses before the grand jury have
been murdered since the investi-
CATION began, threats of a similar
fate to two assistant district at
torneys and two grand jurors
failed to deter the drive.
One warning was insolently
telephoned to a detective in AS
sistant District Attorney Wahl's
office late yesterday. A thick,
gutteral voice said:
"YOu punk! You and Wahl
have just " hours to live"

around records. In two years
Manush received a grand total OF
70 bases on balls.
AS we study the figures in the
books, the reason for this un-
seemly nonchalance, becomes ap-
parent, Manush, although a pro-
lific hitter does not slug for dis
tance. In 1888 when the GriffS
won the pennant, Manush made
221 hits which were good for 3O2
bases. He made II triples and
only five home runs. He made
80 doubles.
During the 1884 season Manush
made 1874 hits for 291 bases. He
had AZ doubles, IL triples and IL
home runs. Manush, therefore,
on his record cannot be classed
with the dangerous hitters of the
game. He isn't the sort Of player
who clears the bases in the ninth
inning with three on base and four
runs needed to win a game. But
he's a mighty sweet hitter at all
times and he affords plenty Of op'
portunity for the men following
him to drive him over the plate.
He moves a lot of men into scor-
ing position.
The case of Whitehill's arm is
causing concern. Whitehill went
to some local medico for a dia-
therma treatment. When he got
to the physicians office, he was
greeted by a grey bearded old gen.
tleman and ushered into an age
hallowed office. The equipment
suited the environment and re-
fused to work. 1t was suggested
that Whitehill go to Gultport Tor
treatment, but this was vetoed on
the grounds that no one over
there would loan the club a dla-
thermic lamp.
Optimistic Statements
In the meanwhile, however,
very optimistic statements are
forthcoming from headquarters.
Mike Martin is certain that Earl's
arm is going to be all right, and
Bucky Harris voices the same
opinion. This is great, except for
the fact that right now Whitehill
can't pitch and is genuinely
worried over the condition of his
salary whip. And as this writer
pointed out previously, Whitehill
is the only strikeout pitcher on
the club and one of the ranking
pitchers of baseball.
Buddy Myer and Lyn Larry had
a long workout at second base
yesterday morning, getting &C
quainted with each others style
of throwing and wheeling on
double plays.

The action of the Public Utili-

any worse this time. For years, it
always has been the club to beat
and it still is, with two OF the
games greatest in Gehrig, the hit
ter, and Gomez, the pitcher. He
won 26 games last year.
"And," adds Mccarthy, che
hasn't started to come to his
best. My other starters are
Johnny BrOaca, who came to
the club without training last
yea- ana ought to be twice as
good; Charley Ruffing, winner
Os 10 and still good, and Johnny
Murphy, who will always be
good, because he knows where
70 throw that ball.
"Ther., there's Walter Brown,
the best pitcher in the minor
leagues last year; Vito Tamulis,
who came UP from Newark
and pitched us shutOut at the
close of the season, and Jimmy
De Shong, a little wild but
winner for us in 1884"
He holds hopes of Johnny
Allen anc Russell Van Alta, in
jured last year but apparently
still to give an account of them
selves down here. Yes, the pitch
ing is strictly tops. So is the
catching with Bill Dickey, a .32G
hitter.
The infield may be better. as
he says, but the law says il
doesn't have to be. Mccarthy
himself is tipping this fact by
trying Myril Hoag, the outfielder
at third base and Saltzgaver, the
general handy man, at first base
Until Combs proves he car
stand up, the outfield is a
spotty as a walters vest. Chap
man is good, Selkirk is fair, anc
then there's Jesse Hill, the ex
collegian who hits minor league
pitching as though he likes it
But some doubt that he'll feel a.
free in the majors. He'll get tn
chance, anyhow, against lefthant
pitchers, so that Combs can b.
rested.
Altogether a pretty typical Van
kee club with pitching and power
a little less of the latter. however
After all, when you talked abou
Yankee power prior to 1884, yoV
talked about Ruth.
