Cadore and Ainsmith
Fail to Follow Train-
ing Rules—Face
Dismissal

 

CINCINNATI. Aug. 21.—Relation
between Eddie Ainsmitn and Leon
Cadore. on the one hand. d the
New York club on the at r. are
strained, and very shorty will be
severed. unless John M raw‘ex-
periences an unexpected change of

' heart. The hull pen battery mates

are in New York at this writing

having been sent home by the Glam '-

manager for a violation of training
rules. and. waivers having been ask-
ed on them. it is considered likely
that they will get. their uncondition-
al releases within the next few days.

“The violation for which these
players have been dismissed from
the camp is not their first. you may
be sure." said McGraw last night.
“I don't let players out when they
fall down once. They have done it
several times and I am in no mood
to stand for their capers. I want
to make it plain also that I didnt
send them home in a fit of anger
over the loss of the seventeen in.-

ning game with the Reds yesterday. .

The violation of the rules for which
they have suffered was committed
in Pittsburgh on Saturday night. As
they stopped off with the team at
Akron on Sunday I didn't see them
until yesterday and it took some
time for the to put through arrange-
ments to get rid of them.
"I had taken both of these fel-
lows when obody else wanted them
and gave them every chance to
make good. I had tried Cadore out
a. couple of times and liked the way
he looked and might have been able
to do something for him. Anlnsmita.
of course. had less of a future. bul
at least he could have remained
with the club indefinitely to warm
up the pitchers and help out in
other ways. However, I expect
when this club‘ is paying a mans
salary it is entitled to some return
on its money, and neither Cadore
nor Ainsmith was willing to play
ir with it.
“W'hy He Didn't Suspend Them.
"1 could have suspended both of
them and taken their money, 3'
getting waivers on them, 1 cou.d
release them to the minors. but I
am being a little fairer with them
than they were with me. I am go-
ing to let them go unconditionally
and give them a chance to catch on
with another major league club if
they can. I don't want to hold them
back just because they abused their
welcome with this club. but I dont
want to have anything more to do
ther of them.
W1't‘)1l'd€dllke to say this. [100: ther:

think. is fair enough. for it seems
to me that a player who wants to
keep in shape should be ready to
go to his room at that time. Some
of the players. including Ainsmith
and Cadore. cduldn't see it my way.
Well. I have let two of them go. and
if I start a general housecleaning
I'll go through with it."

Cadore, oddly enough, started and
finished his career as a Giant in
Cincinnati. as he signed with the

ew York club when it was here
4‘ month: he had drawn his un-
conditional release from the Ver-
non club of the Pacific Coast League
and had come across the continent
to convince McGraw that his pitch-
ing arm had regained its old vigor
‘and. that he could help him to wm
another pennant: After looking him
over for a few days the Giant man-
ager signed him. He had appeared
twice as a relief pitcher. and on
each occasion had given a good ac-
count 0 himself.

dinals last summer. hooked up with

only a few times. but had rendered
service by- catching in batting prac-

their cult. meet in two indoor races
in the annual Mlllrose A. A. in Mad-

and 27. 1925?
> Contrary to general belief there
are thousands of lovers of the walk-
ing game in New York city and all
are already discussing the coming
» meeting between Plant and the great
ltallan heel and toe artist. Plant for
many years won the Nation al A. A.
L .crown but met a sudden setback
in '1924, when Phillip Granville. a
Canadian walker, took his measure
in the title contest at McCombs Dam
Park last fall. The result of this race
came as one of the biggest track up-
sets in a decade. Granville came to
New York unheralded and departed
a conquering hero. Of Plan't ability
there is little question, however. he is
a wonder athlete and one of the

that he is the class of the world's

interviewed several of the Olympic
officials who witnessed Frigerio's
triumph in Paris. and all seemed of
the belief that Plant will meet with
crushing defeat on the day he en-
deavors to match strides with his
Italian foe. Regardless of the out.
come of the races. a treat of rare
vintage is in store for all followers
of the heel and toe game.

Cardinal’s Leader Sees
C l o s e Race With
Giants'at Top

Rogers 'Hornsby. easily the star
player of the National League. re-
cently said that in his opinion the
American League has gone back as
far as gathering promising minor
league material goes. American
League fans looking over some of
the young players who have been
snapped up by scouts working for
the Johnson clubs may not agree
with the St. Louis star. but at least
they are willing to concede that the
old circuit has gathered in a half
dozen sensational players.

In the opinion of Hornsby. Babe
Ruth is the only real star of the
Johnston loon. He says that Eddie
Collins Tris speaker. Ty Cobb and
Ray Schalk have slipped out of ,the
columns of the neWspapers because
they no longer perform the feats
that they did.

Hornsby believes that the winning
team of the National League .will
have an easy time in \he coming
world series with the prize club of
the Johnson group. He points out
that pitching in the National League
is better. Hornsby is not given to
much talking either on or of! the
ball field and his views on a subject
of this kind will prove interesting to
fans of both leagues.

Picks Giants to Win.

The star of the St. Louis Cards
says he believes the Giants will win
the pennant. though he thinks the
Pirates have a better ball club. Ro-
gers is surprised that the Pirates did
not get started on their hunt for the
flag sooner.

"The Giants finishing at home
have the advantage." said Hornsby.
"They are nit a better team. man

 

 

for man. but. they got such a bigithere is a desire to make a killing

start they will be hard to overcome."

Cullen Cain agrees with Hornsby
in regard to the young players that
have appeared in the Heydler cir-
cuit. Of course Cain can see no
reason for any one doubting his

SOUTHAMPTON, N. Y.. Aug. 21.
-—Near a fighting edge for his battle
with Luis Firpo. Harry Wills. negro
heavyweight, yesterday confined his
training to :oad work and will not
work out with sparring partners un-
til tomorrow. ,.

Postponement of the .battle frm'n

caused the limitation of his prepara-
tion during this week to a ten-mile
walk each morning. ..

At that time it was predicted that
McGraw planned to sell or trade
him. McGraw laughed at these ru-
mors. "Give him time—and let him

 

alone. FORGET ALL ABOUT
HIM." pleaded the Giant lender. l
O'Connell eventually was just

 

about forgotten. That's what he and
McGraw desired. Then followed
months of coaching between innings

.during morning practice. and every

odd momel available.

The other day Ross Young. star
righttlcldcr of the team, was sticken

McGraw was forced to sent' a sub-
stitute to that station. He chose
O'Connell without hesitation. Jim-

McGraw displayed the same confi-

turned.

McGraw knows well that a young-
steg who has the makings of a star
can get off on the wrong foot. He

May Succeed .

NEW YORK. Au . 21.—Johnny
Dundee. one of the 0st intelligent
boxers that ever drew on a. profes-
sional glove. astounded the sporting
world yesterday when he appeared
in person before the New York State
Boxing Commission and formally re-
linquished all claim to the rennet——
weight championship of the world,
which he won from Eugene Criqui
last summer at the Polo Grounds.

Had Jack Dempsey walked in and
renounced the heavyweight cham-
pionship of the world it could hardly
have caused more of a stir in box-
ing circles. Dundee's . “resignation"
is not taken very seriously by the
well informed. but it was absorbed
by the Boxing Commission in a very
formal manner. The boxing authori-
ties are already at work on a feather
weight elimination tournament
which is designed to find a suitable
successor to Dundee.

Dundee‘s action in passing up the
world's featherweight title left the
boxing world somewhat bewildered.
The title was worth 8100.000 to him.
Judging the thing from a conserva-
tive angle. Johnny Kilbane. who had
held the title for ten years. came
East last summer to sell it at the
best figure obtainable. He wound up
his professional boxing career on the
flat of his back as a result of a right
hand swipe from Eugene Criqui. Mr.
Kilbane collected 8100.000 before he
entered the ring against the French-
man and. according to Tex Rickard
and others. he accumulated another
850.000 before he left for his home
in Cleveland.

Dundee’s “'eight fluctuates.

Johnny Dundee's excuse for pass-
ing up his highly negot‘sble title was
that he could no longer make 126
pounds. the featherweight limit. This
news also hit a bad chord among
the sharp followers of the game.
Dundee has been noted for his abil-
ity to make almost any old weight.
It is a matter of common knowledge
that he came down from 140 pounds
to make 126 for Crlqui. whom he do.-
feated very decisively at the Polo
Grounds last summer in a fifteen-
round battle. That fight is regarded
very generally as the best one that
Johnny Dundee ever put up. al-
though it was freely predicted be-
forehand that making the weight
would relieve him of all his speed
and make him a mark for the hard-
hltling Frenchman.

Some of the more cold and cal-
culating gents in the cauliflower in-
dustry insisted last night that
Johnny's “resignation" was merely a
publicity stunt designed to attract
attention to a division that has been
in something of a comatose for a
long time.

Dundee's assertion. made yester-
day to George E. Brewer, chairman
of the Boxing Commission. that he
could no longer make the feather-
Wclght limit. did not seem to stand
up or hold water. Even though
