iliGNE SEES RING AS "
Veteran Is Sure To Put a
Lot Of Life Into The Chi
cago Club.
"You hear a lot about Injuries done
in the ring, but ou have never heard
about the counterirrrtant one blow is
to another. haTe you?7
This question was put by Kid La
vigne. tne or.ce famous lightweight,
whose experience convinces him tnat
there are two sides to the question of
ring injuries, and who coesn't believe
that a fit man was ever injured In a
fistic encounter. He continued:
"Look at this ear that I'm carrying

pendage that most fighters carry or

of their business "It is a memory ol
one. My old friend, Joe Walcott. gave
it to me in our first fight, and almost
at the start of it. Some people think
that Walcott can hit. It got-past the
imagination place with me before we
boxed the found. I knew it was true
the firsttime he landed. And the first
time he put one fair on this left ear
he sent me back to my corner wonder
ing if I'd ever forget that poke.
"That was where I got my ear. In
a round or twt it puffed up and filled
with blood so that it looked like a
rw tomato. It felt worse than It
lcoked. There was a whole comic opera ' Rochester, N. J., broke the world's
chorus in my head, singing songs that bowling record of 29S9 in the nation
sounded like music that you hear 'a t al bowling association tournament

wake you up. What would have hap- j
pened if Walcott hadn't played surgeon J
fnr m no .inn can tell. But along in
the fourth or' fifth round he brought
his glove over on the bad ear, pulled
the heel across it. and burst the ear.
The songs stopped, the pain went, the
ear shrank, and Mr. Walcott was
Etopped in round 16.

Through being hit on tne ortage in
other fights so many times a little lump
had formed. It wasn't painful, but it
didn't look pretty and it didn't help me
in my breathing. But I didn't pay
much attention to it until Burge and I
had got well warmed up lrl our mill
in London.
"The fight was 17 rounds, and we
hadn't gone half of that route when
Burge came to me with a straight
right on the nose that carried me part
way to the sleeping quarters. No one
ever hit me as hard on the nose. 1 j

rose than did any boxer who ever faced
the Saginaw lad. according to George
himself. They fougfet first in Chicago

year later -went 29 rounds, also a draw,
at Maspeth. "Ho was like one of those

He threw a nod- t,

lead one that looked as if It ought to

ROWAN HIT AT .284,

To hit .384 and yet fall to hold a
place in the American league is the
well-nigh unique record of Dave Ro
wan, who Dialed In 18 games at first
base for Bobby Wallace's St. Louis
Browns last season. Rowan nas oeen
allowed to slide back to the minor:
because he did not have the build to
make a successful first baseman for
the big show.
The first day Rowan showed up to
play with the battered Browns he im
pervsf. the fans with his, ability to
slam tne- ball. It made no difference
what kind of ball was served to him.
He hit them all for the far corners
and cared not a whiti -which pitcher was
opposing him. The best twirlers of tne
Philadelphia Athletics got the same
punishment as the rawest rookies with
tne Nationals.
But he was let out to give John Ku

Though reports have been plentiful
during the past few 'months that base

Hughey Jennings' suffering "severe in

Scranton. Pa., last winter, the latest
information at camp Monroe, where the
Tigers have been training for the past
few weeks, is that Jennings expects to
be in first-class shape for the opening
game in the American league.
Jennings is at present suffering from
a oaaiy natterea wrist ana a lame leg, j
which prevents mm irum juinpins

get the fingers to his lips. He cannot

forming his old tricks, by April 15.

KID GLEASON ONE
BEST BET WITH SOX
Dallas, Tex, March 2t In the wild
scramble for diamond talent by Comis
key there is one good bet that is not,
to be overlooked. This is "Kid" GJea
son. strong man, comedian' and "buff
er." but remembered for his own
playing of tne second sack with the
Philadelphia Quakers. The active days
for the "kid" have long since passed,
but -his spirit refuses to yield to time's
unceasing flight.
One has only to watch tnis veteran at
work with tne sox squad on the south
ern training grounds to know that ex
cept for age he is the same Gleason
who at one time injected fire and spirit
into the Philly brigade. Today he
motes about with all his old speed. He
howls trom the coaching line with his
inimitable leather lung power, and ev
eryday from morn to night he is set-i
ting a pace tnat even tne youngesi anu
best drilled recruit must acknowledge
as strenuous.
All this means that manager Calla
han in picking up this veteran made a
move which will bear watching as the
pennant race progresses. The official
title for the former National league
strong man is "buffer," and that is
probably what he will have to be be
tween veteran and recruit players and
bosses. His task will be the easier by
reason of his being well liked, and
even at this stage of the training the
"rooks" are on Jthe alert whenever the
"kid" is offering advice.
Coaching Best.
It is on the coaching, however, that
Gleason gets in his best work. During
the regular practice games or exhi
bition battles he is out there with a
line of running chatter and clownisn
antics that rank with such performers
as Hughey Jennings and Arlie Latham.
All his inimitable stuff Is being stored
up for future use. and it's a l-to-100
shot that when the "kid" takes his

At thtsvstage Gleason takes the
coaching Irhe in an advisory capacity. i
ne IB out mere waicoijib every luuie
of the youngsters, and slips or muffs
of any kind fall ro ruffle his temper.
What he said to Fournier the other day
when the latter dropped a throw at
first is typical. It was merely, "Never
mind that. Jack; I used to drop 'em
myself." It -is just such encouraging
advice that keeps the men in fighting
spirit. It is easy to see what a big
asset he will prove when there is some
thing at stake and when he gets down
to helping the men individually.
Varied Career.
Gleason has had a varied career fol
lowing the national pastime. His de
but dates back to 1886. when he played
with the wmtamsport. Pa., team. His
first major league venture was with
the Phillies, whom he joined In 188 1,
and after a few seasons there he drift
ed to St Louis and remained there un
til 1893. In the two years following
he was with Baltimore, and In '9C, '97
and '98 at New Tork.
The baseball war of 1900 brought him
into the limelight, and his next appear
ance was with the Detroit American
ltaguers. He was there during 1901
and 1902. and then found his way back
to his first love, the Phillies. He re
mained with them until 1910, when he
realized that .the inevitable bad arrived
and he willingly stepped down from
his second-sack berth and retired.
Through all these yeslts one character
istic remained with him. It was the
habit of hanging his cap on one ear
and never wearing it otherwise. To
day he is the same, and when tbe Sox
fans see a short, stocky gent showing
lots of fight on the field and wearing
his cap in that fashion they mav safely
label him "Gleason." v
such a carnival. More than $6,000 in
cash and handsome prizes are offered
for the events scheduled for the three
days' racing. It is planned to make

events as the annual Speedway race,
the Elgin National Stock championship,
the Vanderbtlt, and so forth.
Inasmuch aa Ormond-Daytona and
Pablo Beach In Florida no longer hold
