SATURDAY, DECEMBER 1,1923 World Results By Leased Wire MODERN BISEBILL IS BUSINESS WMMIIELISHOIIS Claim That Rich and Powerful Clubs Should Aid Less Fortunate Brothers Again Made; Sentiment Appears Lacking. BY HENRY L. FARRELL, (United Press Sports Editor.) NEW YORK, Dec. I. (United Press). —Again the rather lofty mipded idea is being advanced that the rich and powerful clubs of the big leagues should turn to char ity and help their weaker brethren of the second division. Commissioner Landis suggests to the club owners that the clubs farthest down the lists be given the first crack at players upon whom waivers are asked. Perhaps this would work the de sired effect, but it would be logl cal for the weak clubs to 50 out and dig up or buy some new player* Instead of contenting themselves with cheap crumbs from the other tables. If there are any dub owners In the major leeigues so poor that, they can’t afford to buy players, they should get out of baseball. Everyone In professional baseball Is in it as a business to make money. None of them were an frank an« as open as Harry Frar-e form er owner of the Boston Red Sox. who bought the club to make money and accomplished his purpose by Bolling every good player he had. As long as they can make money by the business that the stronger clubs draw for them, most of the poor club owners are satisfied to go along with what they have and get by with cheap players and cheap baneball. When tbe need is pointed out for adding strength to the weaker ma jor league clubs. It Is not held up as a humanitarian or altruistic need. It is the need or promoting competition to make better busi ness. It has been shown in the past that the only consideration that has to be given to the fans Is to give them a team to look at just good enough to keep them from going into an c*pen revolt or a boycott. There In much talk about the lack of sentiment In baseball. Baseball is a big business and there is no sen timent tn big business. When a player has passed his days of usefulness, he goes else where. Johnny Rawlings was one of the worl'Vs Series heroes of 1921 and be was traded by the G'ants the next season: Jess Barnes was a hero of the 1922 series and he war traded by the Giants: Casey Htenge’ was the outstanding Giant hero of IMS. and his reward was a trana fer to the Braves. It has been pointed out that this is evidence of a shameful lack of sentiment on the part of the Giant owners. But It Isn’t. The Giants showed plenty of sen timent in picking Rawlings from a Idwer club and carrying him through to world’s series dough: tn sticking with Barnes for two or three sea tons when he was of littlo value to the dub: ant* In taking on Stengel when he was heeding out of bare ba’l and putting him into two cuts of big world series money . The Giants have a payroll for sev eral dependents, who have only a sentimental claim on the club, that is more than some of the cheap clubs would pay for a star active player. Sammy Mandell. & handsome youngster from Rockford Hl., is the most promising young boxer seen in New York in several years. He seems destined to be another Benny Dennard. Mandell Is abcait the flashiest box er seen here In years. He hasn’t a punch but, like Leonard, he may grow into one. OPENING ANNOUNCEMENT Monday, December 3 The Thomas Electric Co.

He is growing fast and is now getting beyond the featherweight limit. Making weight will do him no good, and perhaps break his health. "Red" Grange, star halfback of the Illinois eleven, was one of the sensations of the 1923 football sea son. Almost alone he carried his team through the season. Able to do everything wen, Grange, with ♦wo more seasons to go may outdo Thorpe. Gipp and some of those im mortals whose records were thought unpassable. Leo F’ynn would have done very much better by Jack Renault if be had been frank from the start about the purposes of the Canadian con tender for the heavyweight cham pionship. Thinking that Harry Wills would fight no good contender and know- Ing that Lula Firpo was out of the range of hearing. Flynn announced that he wou’d challenge Wills and Firpo on behalf of Renault after the Canadian had beaten Floyd Johnson. Wills gummed up the deal by an swering. “Come on!” Flynn then declared that his boy needed some more experience and would not be ready for Wills or Firpo for another year. Flynn hasn't much conscience when it oomes to getting his chargee in print. When he was trying to keep Bill Brennan tn the high-purse class he made many naxty remarks about the gameness of Tommy Gib bons. He said that Gibbons couldn’t be dragged into the ring with Bren nan but he forgot to mention that when Tex Rickard wanted to stage a Brennan-Gibbons match, he asked $30,000 for Brennan’s end. Flynn has been strangely silent about Gibbons since the Shs'by fight. Sport Calendar Racing. Meeting of Jefferson Parish Fair association, at New Orleans.
