Kimbrough, Hertz Fail
To Get Together on Job

NEW YORK, Jan. a1.-R-John
Kimbrough, the all-America full
back from Texas A. & M, came
within $11, 500 cash money of sign
ing a contract today to play foot
ball with the New York profes-
sional Yankees next season.
That was the figure that separ-
ated John from Douglas Hertz,
president of the Yankees, after
the latest of their conferences.
Kimbrough said he would fly back
up here in about a month to argue
some more.
Hertz offered to write Kimbrough
a check for 49, 500 right now and
to guarantee him an additional
S34, 900 for his exclusive services
for one year. He said this probably
would include making a couple OF
movie shorts.
K~imbrough, on the other hand,
said he preferred an advance pay
ment of SIS, 600. He wants to buy
a ranch as soon as he is graduated
in June, mad it apparently is a
good-sized ranch he has in mind.

Kramer Says Brownies
Only Need Pitching

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 31.-R-
That leap from sixth place into the
Big four" believes young Jack
Kramer, can be made if the St.
Louis Browns get pitching.
We've got GOOD hitting and field
ing and the infield can't be beat"
the 23-year-old hurler said of the
Browns chances, adding that If
get the pitching we'll finish in
the first division"
The tall freballer, product of
New Orleans sandlots, said the
Browns should get help from three
mound veterans acquired in win
ter trading-Johnny Allen, Denny
Galehouse and Fritz Ostermueller.
What he forgot to say was that
the Browns pitching depends upon
his own return to form as much as
anything else. 3

Due for Promotion

Lipon won't be around the state
league next season. While the
Tiger bosses haven't decided def
nltely as 10 the kids future,
chances are he'll ar least be given
a tryout with the Class Al club
at Beaumont in the Texas loop.
Johnny merits the double class
jump. Although rated as a Class &
group. the state league is one of
the fastest for its classification.
Some place il on a par with sew
erai Class b loops.
Lipon. incidentally, prefers play
ing ball by day. It's his contention
the fact Muskegon has no lights
accounts, in part, for his ;remen-
dOus success with the bat.
Nevertheless, he Still ciouts
mean ball by night. Recently in
Flint he dubbed one Offering 800
