Baseball men out this way wouldn't
be surprised if the proud New York
Yankees. floundernig in the Amer
ican League cellar, appeal for help
any time now from an old friend,
the Oakland club.
The reason is muscular Mike
Christoff, the outfielder who found
his batting eye and new lease on
baseball life practically overnight.
The Yankees still are desperately
in need of right-handed hitting
strength, despite the return to the
lineup of Joe Di Maggie.

Y JUNIORS MEET
LELAND MONDAY
Game With Brunswick Cagers
Will Open Winter Season
For Triangle Five

The Y. M. C. A. Junior basketball
team will open it's winter campaign
for cage honors Monday night when
it meets the Leland High schoo
quint on the Y court.
The Junior team is composed Of
boys Is years of age and under and
the present squad is practically the
same as that which represented the
association last season as a Midget
team.
This team has a great deal of diff
ficulty booking games with teams
within their age limit and usually
have to go against teams much older
and more experienced than they. In
spite Of this fact, the Triangle lads
have shown up remarkably well
against such teams as the Ivanhoe
Independents and the New Hanover
High school Junior Varsity.
AT present, the 'Y" team has ten
tative games with two or three Local
outfits, including a return game with
the N. H. H. S. Junior Varsity, but
would like to book a few contests
with teams from nearby towns. Plans
call for participation in the Inter
State Y. M. C. A. tournament to be
held in Sumter the latter part Of
February. The locals have played
in this tourney for the past two sea
sons and expect to make it three in
a row. In their first try as Midgets,
they reached the second round OF
play and last year went to the finals
being eliminated in the champion
ship round by the Sumter Midgets.
Members Of the present Junior
squad state that they are willing to
take any number of "lickings" from
opponents of superior age and ex.
p%erience, if those opponents r good
enough to administer said "lickings.'
They feel that they will receive VAL
liable experience from playing a
number of games, even though they
be defeated. Teams that would like
to schedule games with the Juniors
may DO so by contracting J. P. Gar

HARNESS HORSES
RACING CL0UDED
Young Association Charged
With Using Dictatorial Pow
ers Against Small Owners

COLUMBUS, O., Jan. 4.-R-
More fuel was tossed today into q
flaming controversy over control OF
the country's harness horses activi-
ties.
The 52-year-old American Trotting
association of Chicago charged its
youthful but powerful rival, the
United States Trotting association,
with assuming dictatorial powers to
the financial detriment Of small
owners.
A year ago the United and Ma
tional Trotting associations, and
the National Trotting Register
merged into the U. s. T. A. The
American declined an invitation to
join.
Claiming to govern 80 per cent
Of the country's trotting-paclng
ovals, the U. S. T. A. barred for
1910 except from it's free-fcr.all
events, all horses which appear I'M
der the American banner. That
Isolation decree would prevent
American-sponsore6 trotters a n d
PAGERS from entering all the u. S.
T. A. stake events, including the
$40, 900 Hambletonian, as we'll as
the umerou two and three.year-
old fixtures.
c. H. Perry of Chicago, secretary
Of the American, in a statement
headed "Hitlerism hits the harness
horse" declared:
In The latest and most arbitrary
dictatorial ukase ever issued by the
Qovers of the trotter) -. the U. S.
Trotting association has decreed
the utter extinction of the American
Trotting association, but notwith-
standing the sentence Of death, the
American will continue to function
as in the past, and with no increase
IN cost to its members"
Perry questioned legality of the
U. S. T. A. ruling, and declared it
would deprive a large majority of
the so-called small owners of an
PPo |uAAAty W OOIolll d llVlIS from
their one, and often only, means of
revenue"
The American association makes
no charge for drivers licenses. does
not demand compulsory registration

Smartest Winter Deals;
Reds Secure Beggs

NEW YORK, Jan. A. Up This

coup of their world champion base
ball team.
For the Yankees, f~iguratively
thumbing their noses at the Ame-i.
can league ban which prevents them
from trading in their own league,
obtained Lefty Lee Grissom from
the Cincinnati Reds today in one of
baseball's smartest winter deals.
All they gave up was a guy named
Joe-last name ~Beggs-from their
Newark farm, and in two tries in
the big time, Joe had not been able
to win consistently, so the deal
didn't cost the Yanks much.
It brings one Of baseball's most
colorful youngsters to a club that
was expected to be sorely in need
soon Of another lefthander. With
Grissom, the incompatible Lefty
Gomez, and the studious Marius
Russo, the Yankees now seem to
have a full complement Of south.
paws for the coming season.
Locally the thought was that
Grissom, after some lean years, will
blossom out and prove to be a ire
mendous help to the Bronx Bomb
ers who will be seeking world dom
nance a fifth straight time.
Last year, working in 80 games,
Grissom won nine and lost seven,
but his work in banking the Yan'zs
for one and a third innings in the
third game Of the world series was
believed largely responsible for Yam
KEGS interest in him.
