Playing a return two-game en-

QUINN HAS HOPES
OF BUYING BEES
Only Two Prospective Syndi-
cate Members Are Now in
Line for Purchase

BOSTON, Feb. 9.-R-If four or
five more congenial folk will rally
around him with $4,000 each, Presi-
dent Bob Quinn Of the Boston Bees
will organize a syndicate to buy con-
troll Of that National league baseball
club, he indicated today.
So far, Quinn has but two prospec.
tive syndicate members, Casey Stem.
gel, his manager, and their mutual
friend, Max C. Meyer, a Brooklyn
manufacturer.
: This latest report about the Bees
sale is much too premature to dis
cuss," Quinn explained. Meyer is
only one man and we need at least
four others like him to purchase C.
E. Adams holdings, which represent
about 10 per cent Of the clubs stock"
PERSONALLY, I'd like to have Mr..
Meyer buy the club himself, for !
. consider him a very fine character.
But I have discussed that with him
many times and he has assured me
he never will buy a ball club. He is
willing and eager, however, to make
a substantial investment in the Bees
as a friendly gesture, provided Stem.

AS far as Quinn is concerned, and
he's the only one who can be, for all
Adams stock now is in Quinn's
name, the sale of the Bees is as far
&, tho f,1t11rp aS ever
Since Quinn returned to Boston in
1895, when Commissioner Lands
frowned on Adams horse-racing con
nections and urged him to get as far
out of baseball as possible, only one
positive offer has been made for the
Bees.
That happened last fall, when
Elmer Ward, a wealthy Boston manu-
facturer, and Crooner Bing Crosby
made Adams a definite cash offer.
Adams, knowing Crosby was inter.
ested in a California race track, ad.
vtsed him of Lands attitude and the
movie star reluctantly dropped out Of
the deal, to be followed Immediately
by Ward.

BEATS BROWN
IN GOLF TOURNEY.
Detroit Tigers Coach Comes
Through in Finals of Base
ball Players Meet

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla, Feb. 9.
LR-Three down with but nine holes
to go, Merv Shea catching coach of
the Detroit Tigers, came back bril-
liantly to defeat Lloyd Brown today
in the finals of the Sixth Annual
Baseball Players Golf championship,
2 and 1, on the Jungle club course.
Shea, the official dark horse" of
the tournament, proved himself a
very slick golfing number as he
shot the eight concluding holes OF
the 36-hole play-off thus: 434 433 A.
That is two strokes under par for
this particular stretch, and it left
Brown and the gallery simply gawk.
ing.
1t was cold. So cold that a special
officer had practically to force Judge
Lands out of his fur coat to pose
for the cameras congratulating the
winner.
The hopes of Shea, who yesterday
eliminated Wesley Terrell, winner
for the past two years, must have
been even colder as he teed off on
the 28th hole. Brown, who hopes
vaguely to pitch for the Phillies this
season, but hasn't yet received a
contract, apparently had M er v
drawn and quartered.
And then Shea suddenly pulled
himself together and began cutting
Brown down like a sickle going
through the tall grass.
In six holes the Detroit coach went
from three-down to two-up, winning
five of the six as Brown, a typical
lefthander, wandered all over the
frost-bitten layout.

Local Cagers Advance Out OF
League Cellar; to Meet
Durham Here Tuesday

CHAPEL HILL. Feb. 10 The
pendulum of interest swings back
from the Eastern and the Western
Class A Conference this week with
High Point and Salisbury playing
in the Rowan stronghold Tuesday
night in a basketball contest which
will have an important bearing on
the Western title.
A victory for High Point would
virtually assure the Furniture boys
the title, while a triumph for Sails
bury would probably necessitate
a third game between these rivals
to determine the Western champi-
on. High Point beat Salisbury re-
Gently when the teams met at High
Point.
Eight other Class A. games are
on tap this week with the Raleigh
Wilson contest as the highlight.
The complete Class A schedule
follows:
Eastern-Tuesday: Durham at
Wilmington and Wilson at Raleigh;
Thursday: Wilmington at Raleigh;
Friday: Wilson at Rocky Mount
and Wilmington at Durham.
Western-Tuesday;- Gastonia at
Winston-Salem and High Point at
Salisbury; Friday: Gastonia at
High Point and Winston-Salem at
Greensboro.
Durham and High Point, both
indicated, maintained their leads
in the East and West last week.
High Point barely squeezed by
Wnston-Salem 41-40 but rolled
over Gastonia 1926 to run it's Con-
ference victory string to five. In
its only appearance of the week
State champion, swamp
ed Wilson 63 to %.
Salisbury right on High Points
heels with two victories over
Greensboro by scores of 1928 and
1928.
Likewise, Raleigh kept in the
thick of the running for the East
ern championship with three tri-
umphs during the week. The Capt.
tails trounced Fayetteville 60-28 and
Rocky Mount 1922 and defeated
Wilson 40-31. In the only other
Eastern game Wilmington broke
into the win column for the first
time with a thrilling 1926 victory
over Rocky Mount.
Most of the district champion
ships in the Class B and Class c
divisions have already been de-
termined. The winning teams will
begin play this week in a semi
final elimination series. Sectional
titles will be decided, next week.
The district champions include
Tarboro, Cary, Sanford, and Con-
way from the East, and Coolee-
NEE, Paw Creek, Edneyvine, Pin.
nacle, Stanley and Upton Hill from
the West.
