Practice of Buying Players ii Heat of Race Condemned by Less Wealthy. i i t By GEOR GE-T- H A D WIC K (Copyright, 1922, by Salt Lake Tribune ) NEW TORE, Oct. 14 There are el major league baseball owners who are determined that the celling of human flesh designated on the sporting pages si ball players, shall cease during certain periods of the year. If It were to cease altogether It would be the best thing that could happen to organised base ball. It la a principle that is aa soundly opposed to the orthodox idea of personal liberty as foreign chip owners are to Three The Daugherty dry ship ruling. Of the. elx owners who object to "touting in are jft pennants" during the season, the National league. Three are In the There la likely to (American league. he a fourth added tn the National league In time a fifth. fnd "poor" major league owners who have only nickels to the dollars of some f their rivals made up their' minds that hey haven t much hope of getting Into a world series under present laws of base-jial- l. Not rules, but laws, the laws that lell the clubs what they may and may hot do. I The poor owners are right They are They have beginning to find themselves (Uscovered what a man with a lot of Jnoney and an Instinct for gambling can do when Jie gets Into a game where the principal thing H to raise the other fellow out of It Exactly as in poker,' the gimp who has the long purse has the better end of the bed, under present con- ditions, Giants Bid High. 1 The bet hinges on the securing of ball players. Ball players are secured when fcoet needed by those who are ready to et high on the possibility of getting Ho a world aeries, and they bet high V offering thousands for available play- while the poor owner can offer only paltry191 dreda. In the New Tork National league ! club was battling the Clncinnatis to win the championship. There came a time When U seemed to tpe Giants' manager that he could not win with what he had end suggested the owner buy fresh material. The plunge was made, but e'en with added strength the Giants could not win. Again In 1920 the contents of the exchequer were lavished upon the land -ti wight no championship, but tt made ft the pace too hot for some of the others. In 1921 success crowned the spreading of kale and in 1922 It won another opportunity to play for the grand stake. Contemporaneously with this method of getting there, another chib pursued the same policy with much the same results Out where the $1 admissions do not grow aa Illicitly on the bunhe as they do In the east, some owners were operat-In- g on the doctrine and the good sporting ptefforms which called for matching of wlw against wits They succeeded after a fashion, but thetr patrons objected and asked whether the national game was a simple question like buyjng eggs and butter or really was a game in which personal skill and personal mentality counted for something against the Jingle of the coin 'on the tWe Action Questioned. - The players wanted to know something about it. They never had been consulted sines baseball had drifted by easy stages into the selling of a man's labor at auction, and as mors and more of them went to the larger college of the country their opinions changed upon the right of a company to hitch them up Jo a contract Welch ran to perpetuity. That is one reason, why a baseball players union Is at hand, whether the owners recognize It or not. It wss said that a commissioner of baseball had been appointed to see that the player received justice, but the players think the com missioner of baseball has forgotten. Anyhow. they did not apoolpt him. nor did they have anything to do with the appointment. Some of them go so far a Boxing Card Talent Assures Fight Fans Plenty of Action With two most sensational cards to his credit In the last two weeks, Promoter Hardy K. Downing of the Manhattan club shows no signs of letting up this week and come back at the fans With a card that bids fair to outdo anything hF has wet offered. Downing ha for program arrarged a tomorrow night at the Hippodrome theater, and in it he will use six of the classiest bojs In the intermountain section Midget Smith of Midvale will meet Penny Shannon pf Laramie, Wyo ; Kid Davis of Murray will meet Youhg Fontana of Denver, while Jay Solomon, the tough" little west aider, tangles with Leonard Malndy of I a ramie The impoang arrav of talent, all on one card, came partly by an acrldent Shannon. Fontana and Taramie left Wyoming bound for the Pacific eoaat and Downing heard of it. He persuaded the bovs to take On a couple of fights here Conbefore proceeding further west. sequently he has them all on on card. The bout between Shannon and Midget Smith, who is making his debut for the present season, should be one of the liveliest and most interesting affrays of the season, for It will he a tangle between two first clans youngsters who are ambitious to get ahead and to make a name for themselves. It has added Interest to the local fans, for the Midvale boy was knocked out last spring by Leonard Malndy, a brother of Denny Shannon, and he is anxious triple-head- er fo return the compliment for the younger member of the family Smith Is a skilled boxer He Is fast, shifty and rlever, using his head at all times He knows when he is In danger and If he Isn't successful with his orlg nai plan of battle, he knows enough to change It, and thug often baffles his less nimble-wltte- d adversaries Shannon has aggressiveness on hts side, besides a powerful wallop for a He swings either hts featherweight! right or left from any angle, and hs It hard swings enough to be felt when he lands The second of the triple headliners Is another cue that looks like a great 'bout.

This makes much comand petition for the different position that is what makes A team successful. The Panthers have one of th heaviest backfltdds in the division. Clarence lineman of last Harvy, the vear, Is holding down one halfback, whits Horace Lloyd, the scrappy little player of last years second team, has th other halfback position, John ders are eura ground gainer Christopheraon, the stellar quarterback, a footballer of much ability, Harold Rlngwood, another halfback, showed hts wares In the Grarelte-Wegams. This little player is a good ltne plunger and open field runner. Milton Braden, the husky fullback, showed som real stuff in Friday's game and has th makings of a real footballer. On the line there are Hal Bowen, Marvin Good and Charles Bllcox, three strong men for the center of the tine. Norman Mork, captain of the team made a good showing in the game and will no doubt be named tackle for the third time this year. John Allen fills th other tackle berth arvd le a strong man on th defense and a good tackier. Grant Robert and Dick Newheusen held down the end Roberts Is a remarkable kicker, punting the ball for fifty and sixty yards. N&whausen showed up surprisingly well in the Granite game.
