Clabby goes East In a day or two tre way of Los Angeles He has been offered a match with Georg- Chip a- Milwaukee, and the chances are he will accept It was Chip who knocked out Frank Klaus a short time since. If Clabby meets and vanquishes Chip the vic tory will go a long way toward es tablishing Clabby b right to call him self middleweight champ! >1 Logan will have to begin again a little lower down the ladder Like Sailor Petroskey, he was a trifle too ambitious for a new man It might not be a bad Idea for that matter, to send Logan and Petroskey togeth er.

The train in* of Ritchie and Murphy will be watched closely by hordes of sports and the work done at the rival camps may be viewed in such a way as to cause a change of sentiment among betting men. A* the start there is every reason for believing that the change in the weight scale has been looked upon a«* r big factor in Ritchie’s favor and has resulted in the champion being Installed a pronounced first choice. * * • J OE RIVERS has fought his way hack to popularity at Los Angeles and already there Is well-defined agl tat Ion for another Rivers-Ritchie bout.

N EW YORK, Dec. 3 —Nearly 500 pound* of bone and brawn will j clash In the Madison Square Garden ring tonight when Carl Mor- } rlH .and Jets Willard put up their 1 gb*H‘d hands for a ten-round bout, i Willard said to-day that he would j weigh about 230 pounds, while Morris | admitted that he might tip the. beam 1 at 235 These men are the biggest white heavyweights in the world and ! also the tallest. Willard stands I* i feet 0 inches in his stockings and j Morris is only two inches shorter ' Each was horn In 1886 and their ring : experience is limited. Willard began ! fighting two years ago. while Mor id®’ first scrap for money occurred in ! 1910 In spite of the fart that Willard lias ! AccCmplislimi more in ring contests, j Morris Is a 10 to 8 favorite, probably ’ MIS® h® put up such a hard fight | with Gunboat Smith in the Garden early in October. Morris is wonder fully strong and game He was a I greenhorn when Jim Flynn hammer- | ed him for ten rounds here two years ! ago. but he has kept on improving until lie begins to look like a real heavyweight He has changed his style completely. His blows are de livered straight from the shoulder with tremendous power, and lie re lies upon hooks and uppercut® instead of the Ineffective overhand swings which he employed when he tackled Flynn. Willard probably knows more about boxing than the Oklahoma giant and can lilt. too. Rut just what he can accomplish when Morris puts him under a heavy lire remains to be seen. Willard is so tall that few of hie opponents have been able to reach his jaw. He moves about with sur prising agility and has a good left hand. The State Athletic Commission at yesterday’s meeting raised Willard s suspension, while William Joh was agreed upon as the referee. Ot is Crandall Will Quit Game for Good NEW YORK. Dec. 3.—On the best of authority it is learned that Otis Crandall the noted emergency crew, will not be a member of the Giants or any other baseball aggregation next season. The authority is none other than “Old Doc" himself He can afford to quit, and he intends to quietly efface himself from the big show. He does not relish the idea of being shipped to the St. Louis Car dinals or any minor league team Crandall left New York with his wife and baby immediately after re ceiving his world's series check and is now at home for the winter on his broad Indiana acres. He may never return to New York as an active ex ponent of the national pastime. When he departed he honestly believed he was saying a long farewell to the other players. But he may change his mind, Crandall’s sudden release to the St. Louis club last season renewed his determination to quit. Only those whose whole major league experience has been with a winning team real ize the sinking sensation that ac companies a transfer to a tail-ender. McGraw recalled Crandall two weeks after this deal was made, as the Cardinals did not particularly need him and the Giants felt that he was entitled to another slash at a world’s series melon. But even if he is not traded it is doubtful whether he will rejoin the Giants. If he feels that he can not i be of much help to them he will stay away.

THE. CURIO CABi/ueT- Third Chance for Georgia Boy A By 0. B. Keeler. ND now it is beginning to look as if “Red” Smith, the Atlanta youth who plays third base for the Brooklyn Dodgers, iv ill have another Georgia boy for a side-kick—the same being Claude Derrick, quite a shortstopper, though remembered as a second baseman at the University of Georgia some s a- sons Ago. There is quite a little story tha; may be told of the wanderings of Claude, and we are now going to tell it.. pLAUDE played football as we'l ps ^ baseball at the State University. Some people fancied he played it bet ter, but that is problematical. Any way, he was a very good guard and one of the best punters Georgia ever had. But football. In America at least, comes to its normal finish when a man leaves college, apd if Claude hadn't also been a corking infielder llie would in all probability be teach ing school down about Clayton. Ga.. where he was engaged in that pas time when Tommy Stouch rescued him and took him to play ball in the South Carolina League. Claude played ball with Tommy's team. which was the Greenville bunch, and Claude played ball wed enough to attract the attention, by proxy, of Mr. Cornelius Mack, gover nor general of the Athletics. RONNIE MACK drafted Derrick an L played him at shortstop while Barry was out of the game. In fact. Connie carried him along for the best part of two years, and then, with the brilliant Barry In good or der again Claude was dealt out to Bal timore. • * * ("'LAUDE put up a wonderful gam« with the Orioles last year, ant Frank Chance, then reorganizing t* ■ hapless Yanks, took a fancy to him and grabbed him. This was not altogether lucky ' - Claude, even looking over the fv that he became a Yank. He pulled bone at the wrong time—a time when the Peerless Leader was in the m.e fractious and irritable frame of mlmi it is possible for a P. L. to be And the P. L. let him go back to Baltimore. • A * OF) it said to Claude’s credit jM A 'hls two mischances in th^ 1 _ show did not break his heart, ilf went right back to work with ; f Orio’es, putting up a beautiful gam in the field, and peppering the pill with excessive virility, so that Wil bert Robinson., then trainer-In-chief for tho Giants, took a couple of slants at him and was much pleased. * * * A ND now r Mr. Robinson, being t x manager on his own hook, is said to be seeking Derrick by way of raising the general average of iti- fleldlng on the Dodgers—a job, by the way, eminently fitted for a person of Claude’s surname. This may be Claude’s Big Chance— who knows? ENTRIES at charleston.

MITCHELL C ONNIE MACK is out with the alibi for not putting pinch hitters in place of Lapp and Plank in the second game of the World's Series, which Matty won after a ten- inning fight. Connie breaks an Iron-clad rule to give his excuses in an article in The Saturday Evening Post. Claiming that “Big Six" has an advantage over a batter on his flrst trip to the plate, but that the charm wears off In subse quent visits, Mack found that T>app struck out the flrst time he faced Matty, hit sharply to Doyle the second time, and hit safely the third. Therefore he counted on him for further im provement on the fourth trip. As for Plank. Connie declared that Eddie hit the ball harder than any other player on the team during the game, having made one safety and being robbed of a hit by Fletcher on another try. Therefore he decided to let Plank linger In the contest. But the breaks went the other way, re sulting In criticism for the man ager and a late defense of his actions. • • * THE following is taken from 1 the editorial column of the Johnston (Pa.) Democrat, under the caption. “Finds His Place." "Congress needs able men: the United States Senate needs able men; the State Legislature needs able men. But when John Kinley Tener Is sized up one side and down the other the verdict is. Back to the diamond.’ “This is not to say that base ball does not open up a great career. True. President Taft be came a college professor, not withstanding the fact that he might have become an umpire. Roosevelt is lecturing and run ning all of the world outside the boundary of the United States. Doubtless he could have secured the presidency of the American League had he gone after it. But there is no accounting for tastes. If Taft and Roosevelt choose to pick out little careers for them selves they must bear tHe brunt. John Kin ley Tener is more as piring. He proposes to step from the Governor’s chair to a baseball presidency. It la »n and up for him .4* "It is peculiar"/^ though. John Kinley has been a pitcher and a Governor. Everybody admits he was a good pitcher. In the end. as Kingsley says. every man goes after his own place.’ Base ball has relentlesslv claimed John Kinley Tener for its own.” * * * THE above is meant to be bit- * ing sarcasm. The trouble with many editriaol writers, how ever. is that they are ven* small- minded and do not realize that to be president of the National League is to hold an important office tha/t no man need be ashamed of; that more people are Interested in baseball than in politics. There are many thinking men who. if they had the ability, would rather be president of a major baseball league than be Governor of a graft-ridden State, such as Pennsylvania is. • * # E DDIE AINSMITH, the star backstop of the Washington team, has a novel way of keeping In condition during the winter months. He has turned cow- puncher and is working on the Nicholas ranch, down in Comfort, in the wilds of Texas • * • A S the New York baseball re- porters failed to swap Mar* quard for Tyler, they are now en gaged In the pleasant pastime of trading the Rube for Nap Ruck er, the crack southpaw of the Brooklyn club. * * * T HE New York reporters are also saying that Bill Carrigan, the Red Sox manager, is after Russell Ford, of the Yanks. Bill is snowed in down at Lewiston. Maine. As soon as he is dug out we will ask him about it.
