Kick Out of Job; Terps Fall

A Sawbones carved an ailing kid
neyr out of Lyle Bond, Michigan's

the staff. Maryland, however, will
argue that point.
College ball players probably will
be the big leagues salvation, Fisher
believes, and for supporting evidence
points to the increasing number of
book-learned men shaving on major
circuits. The picture strikingly was
different when he broke in, but he
thinks every college player, regard

plumb crazy, he says.

Barnes Picks Mcneil

For Net Title
Predicts He'll Repeot;
Riggs Man to Beot
Out of Top Five

According to the only professional
who coached him during the ma
tional tournament last fall while all
the bigger shots of tennis were de-
voting their efforts TO Bobby Riggs.
Don Mcneil again will capture the
United States championship next
September and Riggs again will be
the man to beat.
So says Bruce Barnes, the grim
ming, hkeable little Texan who has
shared the professional and open
doubles championship several times
in the past few years and who
coached the 1899 United States Davis
Cup team.
Pausing here yesterday en- route
to Greenwich, Conn, where he will
assume a tennis coaching position
at the swanky Greenwich Field Club,
Barnes calls Mcneil, Riggs, Frank
Kovacs, Joe Hunt and Elwood Cooke
as good quintet as the country ever
has produced at one time.
For the past 10 years" Barnes
says, Il have played with or against
practically every topnotch tennis
player in the country, but would
hesitate to call any five better than
these. But somehow. I just can't
board the Kovacs bandwagon and
say that he will be McNeil's chief
contender next year. Riggs may not
scintillate the way Kovacs does. but
Bobby'S one Of the smartest and
most consistent players of the game"
/ Barnes revealed that Mcneil
forced Riggs to tear up s25, 900
check the day he beat him in the
final round of the 1910 nationals. A
sporting goods firm had persuaded
Riggs to join its professional troupe
and had written out a check in that
amount as a guarantee Just before
Bobby took the court. But its CASH
ing, of course, was contingent upon
Riggs victory which didn't result.

Most of the Michigan boys who
padded Maryland, 1875 yesterday
at College Park, were wearing 3-cor-
nered sliding pads and hitting the
milk bottle regularly when Ray
Fisher arrived at Ann Arbor to take
the Wolverines baseball fortunes
into his calloused, capable hands.
And glancing back over that far
reaching string of years the clear
eyed needle-noSed former big
Lacquer said he still found the work
as engrossing as the day he looked
over his first batch of varsity candi-
dates Sure it was hard to quit the
big show, especially when he felt
he vas just reaching his peak, but
name one major Lacquer who has
had q regular berth. a fair salary
and almost unruffled existence for
81 years.
Fisher, a curious cross between
bumptious big Lacquer and unde-
monstrative college professor, had
been up 10 seasons, eight with the
Yankees and two with Cincinnati
when he made the switch A player
was ready for the glue factory at
30 il that gas-liehted era so he
went for the Michigan offer like a
perch swapping at two-bit lure. 1t
was smart play.
Ruth Makes Good on Boast.
Babe Ruth mad just come into
the league with Boston when Fisher
was an established member of the
Yankee chucking corps, but already
was beginning to knock the palings
loose from the fences with his long,
booming drives. The Babe was a
slugger and admitted it.
He always was telling US what a
great hitter he'd be if they'd let
him play regularly" Fisher grinned.
But all pitchers think they're 400
hitters so we just winked at one
another and nodded. Well, we soon
found out he wasn't Dragging and
he wasn't batting any rabbit ball"
Ray was sort of combined Bucky
Walters and Joe Ryba on his way to
the bright-lights belt. At Hartford,
where he whiled away summer vaca-
tions from Middlebury College, he
was shortstop. catcher and pitcher
but when the Yanks bought him in
09 they decided he was a full time
pitcher and made him stick to it
which suited him.
A lingering illness slowed him
down in 1915 and he didn't feel like
his old self again until after his dis
charge from the Army when he dis
covered he was a paid-up member
in good standing of the Cincinnati
club. He began to win again and
even improve, he thought, but after
the spring training expedition of
1921 Ray made the momentous de-
cision to forget about pitching for
the steadier employment of coach
ing.
Fischer has a smart looking team
on this current Southern trip, but
bemoans the paucity of good
pitchers.

Leiber Last HoIdout
In Majors After
Cubs Sign Lee
Gardener Still at Home
In Arizona; Bill Eoeer
To Hurl Tomorrow
BY the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, April l2-Big Hank
Leiber has only three days to sign
up before the National League flag
race begins.
The muscular outfielder OF the
Chicago Cubs has outlasted all of
the other recalcitrants in big league
baseball, being the lone holdout.
He had a teammate, Bill Lee, for
company until yesterday.
Lee Would Hurl Tomorrow.
Big Bill, a red-hot pitcher in
1889, who faded badly in 1910, ac-
cepted terms during the Cubs White
Sox exhibition game and immedi-
ately donned uniform for q
workout.
Terms of Lees contract were not
announced, but it was understood
that the compromise figure was
$1,000. Lee drew sl7,500 last year
and the club cut him to $12,500.
When he failed to report for spring
training $4,000 more was slashed Of
the offer.
Lee said that he was down to play
ing weight and asked Manager
Jimmy Wilson permission to pitch
against the White Sox tomorrow in
the final preseason exhibition
battle. Leiber, however, still is at
his Tucson (AriZ) home and has
not communicated with Cub officials
recently.
Cubs Maintain Series Edge.
The Cubs and Sox were to play
their thirteenth spring game at
Comiskey Park this afternoon.
Thornton Lee and Johnny Hum
phries were slated to pitch for the
American Leaguers, Vern Olsen and
Vance Page for the Cubs.
The Cubs defeated the Sox yes
terday in the first game before
Chicago fans, 2 to /, giving them
seven Of the II contests so far.
