BAMBINO MAY NOT SIGN

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 18. (AP) Un

speaking) feels its If he can play the
entire 'season next year, the Mew
York Yankee management needn't
worry about compensating him for
all the 1S4 games. '.
This the great home run slugger
revealed while here with fie Yank

Browns.
Asked if his layoff during the first
port of the series was any Indication

the Babe replied: I
"I can't answer that, because I
don't know. But one thing Is cer

I can play the full season. It would
not be fair to the ownei to sign for

CHIEF OF TOURNEY
By LES SHOWERS.
Before leaving for the east I wish
to say a word for the splendid game
ness of both the fighters and the
spectators Incident to the Legion's
amateur boxing tourney that closed
at the Armory here last Wednesday
ntght.
The courage of the fighters was
proved by the manner In which they
tore Into each other despite the blis
tering heat. They" performed well
and I know that the spectators will
agree with me that It took gameness
on the part of the fighters to even
enter the ring the last night of the
meet after having endured the ter
rific heat that prevailed throughout
the duration of the tourney. You
did fine, boxers. , You are to be com
mended for your gameness.
The spectators also displayed cour
age and 100 per cent sportsmanship
for also enduring the sweltering heat
of the three nights of the tourney.
The regrettable thing about the
tourney was that It could not have
been offered during the fall season in.
stead of In August.
With the heat wave at Its height a
large number of fighters, after realiz
ing they would have had to perform
In the Armory, notified us they feared
the ordeal might Impair their health
and withdrew from the tourney
without putting In appearance. And
no one could Justly blame them,
either.
There was splendid co-operation
from the press, Legion officials, mem
bers of the Medford boxing commis
sion, managers, fighters and Dr. A. F.
W. Kresse, who was on hand to ren
der services when needed; Dr. B. C.
Wilson, who assisted; Al Plche, who
put up a wonderful tronhv. And.
say, wasn't Major Clare Armstrong
right on deck when It came to en
tering his O. O. C. camp contestants?
The major's atbletlo officer, Lieut.
George A. A. Jones, Is to be commend
ed, too, along with the other officials.
Gameness Is usually shown only by
the fighters In amateur ring tour
neys, but in the Medford event the
courage of fighters and spectators
alike were given the well-known
"acid" test, or should I have used
the word "heat" Instead of "acid" In
this respect. In closing wish to say
Mr. Russell and I are happy we work
ed In Medford and despite the limited
crowds we are leaving town with
happy thoughts of the city In mind
