tion. and will be resumed tomonow

tion and keep baseball absolutely

witness" after the evidence had been

pending scandal," and Nashville

Fred E. Elehrodt, outfielder with the

Orleans during a series with that
club and Nashville recently to "lay
down” in his playing so that he
could eventually play with the Pell-
cans by way 'of a Nashville-Clove-
land New Orleans transfer.

Eichrodt said he. felt certain that
Ralph McGill the sports writer of
the Nashville Banner was referring
to him as one of the players involv-
ed in the scandal charged by Mc~
Gill. .

McGlll. he said, had been "riding"
him during the season and felt put
out. because of his return to Cleve-

 

land.

Public Insisting Wills Should F1ght Tunney

With Dempsey Out of Picture for Present Bout Would Go Big

 

 

By JOE \VIZIIJAMG .
NEW YORK, Aug. 20.——Mr. John

 

L. Fun is o. curious bird. Like a
second-hand tire be will stand just ‘
so much. and not a bit more. Mr.
John L. Fan has in ‘recenl weeks
become very sour. not to seybltter.
on the subject of one John Harrison
Dempsey. hemlt of the heavy-
weights.

Mr. John L. Fan is beginning to
think he is being pushed around.
That is one thing he will not toler.
etc. It is all right in certain cir-
cumutances to shove Mr. Fan but he
simply will not stand to be pushed.

And it is becoming obvious that
John Harrison Dempsey. for all his
chatter about fighting in Willi—or is
1936 the date?—-il pushing him
around.

It is the earnest desire of Mr. Fun
at the moment to have John Harri-
son Dempsey either put on the
gloves or the Maxim silencer or
both without further delay.

Moreover. the old bird is getting
fed up on Harry Wills. known vari-
ously to the ring as the Brown Pan-
ther. the Doclie Dockhand and the
Silent Senegambisn.

Sentiment Beginning to Turn

Mr. F1111 is beginning to suspect
the colored cloutcr is getting away
with something. and his sympathies
are on the verge of turning to re-
sentment.

Nothing is quite so annoying. to
would bird as a belated discovery
that his kindly impulses have been
perverted.

For four years he has been on the
sidelines whooping it up for the
downtrodden dorky. lending s. ro-
bust and unrestrained note to the
general chorus of Fistlana to “give
Wills a chance." Now he is asking
himself it Wills all the while wasn't
giving him the festive run-around.

Wills has been fed a steady diet
of succulent setups for four years. -
On occasions he has looked the part
of a. real lighter. At other times he
failed to impress anybody.

Why Nat Gone Tunney?

Always the word has gone out
that Wills will never “open up"
until he gets Dempsey in the ring.
Mr. John 1.. F1111 is beginning to
suspect this is a lot of pear pre-
serves. or the current fruit equiva-

Perhaps no better example could
be offered of Connie Mack's patience
than his handling of Pitcher “Slim"

Harris-s joined the Athletics in

Texas League. touted a sure winner
in the American.

For five'years Harries has been a
member of the Mackmcn. Not once

As a meter of fact. his best year
was his first.

The possessor of every ‘physlcal
requisite. Harries simply was un-
able to hit a winning stride. First
it would be lack of control. then in-
ability to field bunts, sometimes fail-
ure to hold the runners onthe bases.

Always something would handicap
Harris: in his effort to establish
.himself as ‘a real big leagurer. Mack
through all this adversity never
