Ty Cobb Calls Off Two-Day

JENNINGS HELD REASON

Much Interest Because of Known

WHERE COAST AND MAJOR LEAGUE TEAMS ARE TRAINING THIS SEASON AND MANAGERS OF THREE 1920 PENNANT WINNERS WHO HOPE TO REPEAT.

NEW YORK. March 12. (Special.)
The very thing which made baseball
fans throughout the country look for
ward with deep interest to the pro
jected two-game scries between the
Nw York Giants and the Ietroit
Tigers at San Antonio, namely, a sup
posed lack of cordiality between Ty
Cobb, manager of Detroit, and Hughey
Jennings, former manager of that
outfit, has arisen to prevent the series.
According to arrangements, which,
by the way, were never definite, the
first game was to have been played
today and the second tomorrow.
Everyone was all het up about the
two contests and it looked as though
nothing would occur to prevent them.
Those, however, who know Ty Cobb
and had marked his silence, about the
proposed battles were not at all sur
prised yesterday when the Georgia
I'each announced he had been hired
to manage a baseball club and not to
run exhibition games. The real rea- i
son is ' said to be Jennings. Cobb j
showed no great desire to play base-
ball under his leadership nd now evi- :
dently he doesn't wish to play against
a club which Hughey leads. !
Jennings Mot Drawn to Cobb. !
As for Jennings, he himself has no '
great reason for loving Cobb and
there are other Detroit veterans to
whom Hugh owes nothing at all
There is no use going into this matter
now; suffice It to say there is a gen
eral belief among baseball experts
that It was not Jennings' fault that
the Tigers in recent years have not
won pennants, or at least finished
higher up on the ladder. Jenningf
hasn't forgotten this and there art
other things he hasn't forgotten. Just
the same, this did not mr.ke him the
less anxious to go into action as
mentor of the Giants against his old
team. In fact he looked forward to
the encounter.
For it was JIcGraw's intention to
start Jennings at once as field man
ager, letting him learn the ropes of
the team. However, the former De
troiter will have his opportunity later,
as there now is no doubt that Mc-
Graw intends to sit among the mag
nates as soon as possible, leaving
Jennings to conduct the team on the
field.
Players Become Independent.
Aside from actual baseball, an In
teresting phase of the southern train
ing season is the development of the
fact that the big league ballplayers
in ever-increasing numbers are be
coming independent of their profes
sion as a means of livelihood. This,
more than anything, is the cause of
the unusual number of holdouts, if
not actual desertions, from the base
ball ranks, which have marked the
late winter weeks. Players have
found either that they are in a po
sition to capitalize the reputations
they have made on the diamond or
else they have made good in trade or
farming or something through their
own hard work and enterprise.
J. Franklin Baker really doesn't
have to play ball. He has three farms
in Trappe, on the eastern shore of
Maryland, and has made a lot of
money out of his products. As a con
sequence he returned to the gamt
simply because of his love of the sport
and only when he had made certain
that his agricultural interests would
not suffer.
Demand Are Numerous.
Zach Wheat, captain of the Brook
lyn club, has a profitable farm and
says he had Just as lief stay on the
land as not. In fact, he adds that he
will stay there unless Colonel Kbbetts
comes through with a nice, fat in
crease in salary. Larry Kopf of the
Cincinnati club came through with
demand for JfOOO a year, although he
is getting 1SOO0 now. Garry Herr
mann, when he heard this, leaned
back in his swivel, thrust his thumbs
in the armholes of his vest and smiled
his well-known smile.
"All right," he said, "let Larry hold
out and we will put Sammie Crane 'n
his place.
He had hardly made the Napoleonic
remark when in comes a letter from
Crane saying that the poolroom he is
running is making so much money
that he can't afford to play baseball
and wants to go on the retired list.
George Sisler is playing ball be
cause he loves it He started a print
Ing business two years ago and it has
grown to such proportions that he
had to wait ten days before joining
his team in the south in order to make
arrangements for his departure. Rube
Oldring has a money-making farm in
New Jersey and is playing baseball
In California this spring just for the
fun of it. Roger Hornsby is so filled
up with profitable oil Investments that
for some time he was undecided
whether to devote all his time to the
elusive oil well or go to playing ball
again. He finally determined to play
ball on the side. Brick Eldred, a
coast league player, has a good per
manent job with the Sacramento
playground comml:sion and probably
won't sign with Seattle. Finally. Wil
bur Cooper, the Pittsburg pitcher; has
sent a Jovial message to Barney Drey
fuss that he can make so much money
out of his poolroom that nothing but
a round, fat figure will tempt him to
hurl for the Pirates this season.

AN FRANCISCO. March 12. (Spe-
San Francisco gave fit-
ir II somewnai Dtiaieu hb-
nition to the wonderful work of the
University of California football team
last fall one day this week. With
the San Francisco Advertising club
as sponsor for the event, the blue and
gold footballers were the guests of
honor at a luncheon tendewd them
at the Palace hotel last Wednesday
at the noon hour. Some 800 folks
were present, listened to the speeches
and cheered when President William
F. Humphrey of the Olympic club
presented the Californiana with the
trophy they won when they defeated
Ohio State at Pasadena the first day
of the year. President Barrows of
California was one of the spokesmen
and Controller Bob Sproule gave the
folks some idea of the new stadium
that California hopes to have ready
within the next two years.
It was a real get-together party
and more enthusiasm was displayed
than usually is to be found around
a San Francisco festive board. As
many of the college coaches as pos
sible were gathered for the occasion,
and while they listened, as did the
rest of us, it was a good thing to
note their presence.
San Francisco has never been much
of a city to enthuse over its winners.
We have taken victory too much fcr
granted, and the move of the Adver
tising club was In the right direction.
Los Angeles and even Oakland have
been strong for that cort of thing,
and It's high time that we drop into
line.
Incidentally and while we are talk
ing about-football, it is a good spot
to remark that Coach Andy Smith is
taking time by the forelock and get
ting some spring workouts for his
men. Three days a week, during the
month of March, he had the lads out
on California field for afternoon
practice. Chiefly the men he has
called . into action are the freshmen
and some of the greener of the var
sity lads. He wants to give the boys
something of a grounding in the rudi
ments of the game, so that when fall '
practice opens he will be away to a
good start. It's quite a clever idea
and calculated to keep the California
football machine well up to the front.
There are rumors that all is not
going as well as might be desired
with the Legion fights in San Fran
cisco. So far the boys have had
three sets of them at Dreamland rink
and they have certainly not set the
world on fire from a financial stand
point. It's a queer thing about the ama
teur who breaks into the game of
promoting fights. He always figures
there Is a chance to make a world of
profit right off the Jump. And when
he strikes a losing night, or some
thing closely akin to losing, he sim
ply can't understand It, I imagine
that's what's the trouble with the
Legioners. They had an idea that
with three or four shows they would
have enough spare coin laid aside to
build themselves a clubhouse. So far
they haven't accomplished much in
that line.
Naturally, they are a bit disap
pointed and some few of the chaps
are already talking about changes,
with new promoters and all that sort
of thing.
Ed Hughes, who for a long time
was sporting editor of the Seattle
Times and the last four years con
nected with the sporting department
of the San Francisco Chronicle, has
left for Los Angeles, where he Is to
be sporting editor of the Examiner,
in that c'ty. "Shorty." as. he was so
well known in the northwest, prob-!
ably will cover- baseball as he did
here and in Seattle. Also he will
perambulate around with the football
boys when it comes that time of year.
Speaking of sporting editors, word
comes from the east that W. O. Mc
Geehan, who once upon a time was
a San Francisco sporting writer and
later did the same work for the New
York Tr'bune, is now managing ed
itor of that sheet It's quite a boost
for a sporting writer when he can
Jump into a job of that prominence,
and perhaps we have a right to do
a little crowing over the success of
our confrere. -

party to hit town in some time. The
St. Paul bone crusher weighs close
to 200 pounds. Tom Grant, his op
ponent, who will arrive from Spokane
either today or tomorrow, will go
about 205 pounds over all.
The match between the, two heavies
is attracting more interest among
the local fans than the bout be
tween Ted Thye a-nd Ralph Grant,
wh'ch was originally signed as the
main event. Whenever two heavies
are toseed on the same carpet to
gether there' is usually something
doing.
A time Umit of one hour has been
set on the match which will start at
8:30. One fall will decide the con
test or a decision will be given at
the end of the 60 minutes. Pearson
is making his first start in the north
west, although he Is known all over
the country as a grappler of consid
erable ability. He has wrestled all
of the old-time limb twisters and was
at one time the training partner oj
Frank Gotch.
Tom Grant recently returned from
the east where he participated In 26
matches, three of which were in Mad
ison Square Garden,, New York.
The match between Thye and
Ralph Grant should also provide the
usual amount of thrills. In meeting
Grant, Thye is not taking on any
champion, but is tangling with a man
who is certainly a tough proposition.
Grant probably wrestles more
matches in one season than the ordl
r.ary grappler does in a life-time. He
takes them all as they come and
while hia record may not be as free
of defsats as that of Thye he never
theless always gives a good account
of himself and his opponents usually
know they have been in a wrestling
match.
This match will be the best two

match going one hour the Thye-Grant
match will hold the boards for the
rest of the evening up until 12 o'clock,
providing there are no falls. In case
neither man gets a fall a decision will

Jndge Landls Holds Accused Men
' Cannot Play In Organized
Ball Pending Trial.
CHICAGO, 111., March 1!. (By the
Associated Press.) Announcement
today by the etate that a six-months'
postponement would be sought in the
trial of the indicted Chicago White
Sox players brought charges from de
fense attorneys that an attempt was
being made to shelve the case anl
leave the indicted players perma
nently under a cloud of suspicion.
The trial is scheduled to start Monday.
The prosecution, however, declared
the delay would be sought "to make
certain that the men back of the
series scandal were driven out of
baseball and into the penitentiary."
Judge G. F. Barrett, American
league attorney, said the prosecution
had found its evidence was not ready
New evidence being gathered would
give the state an impregnable cas.
he said, and might result in a further
grand Jury investigation.
He said known reluctance of nie
grand Jury witnesses to stand by
their testimony had made new evi
dence necessary. Judge Barrett
scoffed at rumors that the case was
being; pigeonholed. To proceed now
might make a farce of the case and
result In guilty men escaping punish
ment, he declared.
Delay Will Be Fought.
T. D. Nash, attorney for Buck
Weaver, Swede Risberg, Oscar Felsch'
and Fred McMullin, and Benedict
Short, attorney for Claude Williams,
Joe Jackson and allied with D. P. Cas-
sidy in the defense of Eddie Cicotte,
said they would fight any attempt to
procure a long delay. Two weeks or
30 days would be granted as a matter
of courtesy, they said. Jackson and
Weaver said they opposed even a
short postponement. Judge Landis,
baseball commissioner, placed all the
indicted players on the ineligible list
when he heard of the proposed post
ponement and said they would remain
there pending the trial. This bars
them from playing organized baseball.
Concerning the possibility of grand
ury evidence not being sufficient to
obtain conviction. Judge C. A. Mc
Donald, who started the grand jury
quiz, said that if witnesses repudiated
their statements there might be some
difficulty.
Concerning the possibility of the in
dicted players returning to baseball,
Harry Grablncr, secretary of the Chi
cago American league club, said:
"Judge Landis now is the ruler of
baseball and his rulings will be accepted."
State Declared In Bad Position.
Attorney Nash said "public opinion
was swinging toward the indicted men
and the state, knowing it was fight-
ng a losing game, was seeking the
easiest way out."
"We have petitions signed by
10,000 Chicago fans asking reinstate
ment of Buck Weaver," he said.
This plea of the state's Is just
bunk. Tney are trying to leave these
men with their characters perma
nently besmirched."
Judge Barrett said that ne and tne
tate's attorneys were In accord con
cerning the trial and the delay was
not the fault of the state attorney's
office.
We are fighting for baseball and
for the public and we are not going
to run the risk of a trial that might
prove to be improperly handled. We
will have a sona case 10 present 10
the jury," he declared.
"A trial Improperly handled would
kill baseball. We are not going to
let thnt happen. A proper trial Is
much more important than an im
mediate trial."
