Haven, Conn., with the balance considerably in favor of the western city. ; Colonel J. C. Miller, who matched the ponderous mittwielders, - as a matter of faot, is seriously 'considering becoming" the one and only commander-in-chief of the forces who will stage the bout, in 'dining to Denver because he believes he can get sufficient local .backing to make the affair a success r ;. : ' Denver poSBesnes two suitable ' .! places for the bout one Indoor sta , dtum and a huge outdoor enclosure. i The indoor spot ha practically been ("passed up, so, if the bout goes to i the mlle-hlffh city, it undoubtedly t 111 be in the Denver baseball park. Conld Hold Thousands This park is of major league pro . portions. It has a grandntand that , ' can comfortably seat 10,000 persons, v with a small sized bleachers off to . .one Side. Around this could be r erected temporary seats to accorn- modate 15,000 or 20,000 more per- : .. sons. , ' Colonel Miller is confident the at , tendance at the fight will amount to Just as many seats as he is able to group around the ring. Prices - may have to be run up, he declared, to hold 'the attendance to the ca pacity of the arena. . " ' J ant to Get Advertising ' ' ; "I haven't talked, a lot about of-, fers," Colonel Miller said, "be cause a, lot it small town: offers have been made simply to get ad- vertlsing.

YORK, April 2. i When It comes to changing i uniforms Lee Magee.has most major league players tied to a. post. I ;. NO player of prominence in the big show has worn a wider assortment of uniforms than' the little blond outfielder who i was , recently traded, to the Cincin nati club by the Browns. ; There are several players who have had i versatile experiences,-among them being Johnny Evers, but -Including his experience in the Federal league, Magee has Johnny faded. 1 i Starting out with the! St. Louts Car dinals in 1911, Magee served under Hug- gins for four years. He then Transferred his affections to the Brooklyn Federals and got in on the fat salaries that the Wards handed right and left. I . Taaki Buy Him When the Feds busted up, Magee was put On the market aa a bait to the highest . bidder, and the Yankees took him in for a sum said to have been $22,500. ' In addition they handed him a fat contract .calling for j more than $8000 per season. , i . . For some reason Magee failed to make good 1 with New York. Naturally a speedy and clever all-around ball player, his inability to hit was a mystery and he was finally disposed of to the Browns in the deal which brought Armando Mar- nans to the Ruppert fold. His recent sliift to the Reds is his fourth since leav ing the Cards. i Evers Equals Mark Johnny Evers might have equaled Magee's record for changing scenery had he jumped to the Feds, for Johnny is wearing his fourth big league uniform this year as a member of the Red Sox. Evers has worn the regalia of the Cubs, Braves artd Phillies, but this is hie: first year in the American league, while. Ma eee will have seen service with' two American, two National and one Fed era! league club when the 1918 season ends. J Other players who have shifted about are Hal Chase and Ed Konetchy. Chase has been with the Yankees, White Sox Buffeds- and the Reds. Koney ha shifted from "the Cards to the Pirates, Pittf eds and Braves. Armando Marsamt, now with the Yankees, was formerly with the Reds, Cards and Browns. John J. XcUraw New i York, April 2. . (I. N. S.) They call him the Little Napoleon of Baseball. He Is all of that. Rather short and t stocky, inclined to be oortlv. and car rying a generous sprinkling of il ver . In his hair, John J. McGraw Is perhaps the most interesting figure in the national game. Ever since he discarded knickerbockers for his first nali' of "lona-les" McGraw has been a part of baseball. He started playing professionally with Olean in the New York State league back In 1890. He was a stripling then.' but the same dominant spirit that has won for him the most enviable managerial berth in the major leagues was uppermost.. i McGraw's history as a player Is known to most fans. His rapid rise to stardom, his high rank among the field ers and hitters of his day and his con nection with the great old Baltimore Orioles needs no recounting here. Suf fice It to say that from a $60 per month job In the bushes he has played and fought : his way to a position which brings him close to $50,000 a year. As a manager of the Giants,' he has A novel trophy, which Is expected to stimulate interest in golf tournaments held by clubs in the Western Golf as sociation this season for the benefit of the Red Cross, is in the hands of Crafts W. jHiggins, assistant secretary of the association at Chicago. The trophy, now the property of the Oahu Country club of Honolulu, the western outpost of the Western Golf association, is "the Red Cross of Bel gium," : presented by the International association of the Red Cross of Bel gium to Colonel ,C. P. laukea, a mem ber of the Oahu' club, when he was In Europe in 1882 on. a diplomatic mission for King Kalakaua. . At two recent tournaments the Oahu club netted a total of $5500 for . the Red Cjrosa, and the success of the con tests led to the idea of sending It to the united" States as a Red Cross "mis sionary," and the suggestion that it be put up for competition at different clubs. I Whn the events are over in the states the trophy Is to be returned to Honolulu.

Ills .Na tional league champions of 1917 tost the world's championship to'' the White Sox, and the result was a hard- blow to Mc Graw. But he has come back fighting again this year, despite criticism from some quarters -for the way he handled his club. McGraw is a plugger by nature. His square jaw and sieqly blue eyes leave no doubt of that. Naturally of a fiery nature, he has often taken the offen sive at the drop of the hat. Ills trouble with Umpire Byron last year was an ex ample. .'..: , Off the , field Mac Is a quiet, con to win. He Is inclined to drive .his players, but he has a way of doing it that seldom causes trouble. As a judge of players. McGraw ranks with the best, though he has never developed a great number of stars. V s Off the field Mac kls a quiet, con genial' and- rather retiring fellow to meet. He is generous, a point-blank conversationalist with few comments to make. He Impresses those who meet him as a mild-mannered man of power but that la off the playing field.
