From the above, it may be adduced that "Jock" considers Baker an ideal leader. Many a football captain is a leader in name only. Many of them lack practically all of the qualities Baker possesses.

By AL CLARK. Trade winds continue to blow their wild rumors through the hockey realm. No less than 20 trades, that if completed would effect the status of half the spokes In the National League wheel, are hanging fire. Most of these will have died to a faint breeze and then gently pass away with nothing being done about the matter.

Pittsburgh is one of the storm centers of the rumors. Several clubs would like to acquire Jerry Lowery, Hib Milks and Harold Darragh et al, but Pittsburgh isn't in a swapping mood when their first string forward line Is mentioned. Major McLaughlin, owner of the Chicago Black Hawks, did quite a little dickering with Frankie Fred-erickson during the past week and, although the Buc manager gave him a very definite "no," McLaughlin refuses to quit his advances for the Pirate trio. Abel Trade Near. Manager Frederickson has a deal hanging on Taffy Abel.

Just whom Frederickson would send to Chicago for the burly defenseman is not known, but Fordon Fraser, Rodger Smith and Johnny McKin-non all have been mentioned in one breath. To date Fraser has failed to show the stuff that had been expected when he was traded for Burt Mc-Caffery to the Les Canadiens. Mc-Caffery has been going well with the Frenchmen and the Pirate rail birds believe that the Les Canadiens got too much for their part in the swap. Trades that are pending in the league would have Art Sommers of the Hawks traded to Detroit for Bobby Conners. The Hawks would also like to have Joe Lamb, of Ottawa; Cotton of Toronto; Normie Himes of the Americans; Hay.

FRANK ELMER SMITH is one of the 1,357 Smiths listed in the local telephone directory. Obviously, there is nothing in this kind of classification to distinguish him from the rest of the clan. Outwardly, he is a normal citizen with the customary weaknesses for boiled ham and cabbage, an occasional mona and black stogies. Twenty-three years ago, though, this man was "Nig" Smith, a buddy of the Fielder Joneses, the Frank Chances, the Chief Benders and other baseball immortals of the day. Had to Be Good.

"Nig" was one of the standout pitchers of the American League. He had to be to get anywhere in the profession, because he was asso- son, the Tartans were miserably poor offensively during the major part of the game. When the first half ended, Carnegie had failed to score a field goal, making its four points on fouls while Crowell's five loopers figured prominently in the Titan's 21 points. Not until four more minutes had passed in the second half did the Tartans register a field goal. Elmer Schumacher accomplished the stunt, making a close looper.

He repeated on the next play with another speedy toss to add more dash to Carnegie's play. Within a short time Webster, Merten and Nease, with a long side shot, found the net hit Davis. great mechanical ability. But it takes some thing more than popularity or mere mechanical ability to make an outstanding leader. There is no reason why a football captain should not be a power on his team.

He should be able to confer with the coach. He should have sound ideas of his own, and he should have a strong enough personality to impress the coach with those ideas. Howard Harpster was that kind of a captain at Carnegie Tech. He was a leader in fact as well as in name. Baker will probably make the same kind of a pilot.

He a young man of convictions. He is not afraid to assert him-fplf. If he thinks things are not going right, he will not be backward about asserting himself. He will want to know why. Having ascertained why, he will want to do what he can to correct any faults.

Baker is a straight student in the school of dentistry. Any boy who can carry a heavy scholastic burden with marks, and at the same time find time to devote to sport, is worthy of such honors as have befallen Mr. Edward Butkiewicz, shortened to Baker for collegiate purposes.

He bemoaned the loss of so many of his 1929 stars, saying that a good team could be formed of the players who graduate next spring.

"We will start football work again in six weeks," said he, "and it will be none too soon for me. We have plenty of work to do. Out on the coast teams started work on Jan. 4, and will be at it for six more weeks "Our 1930 schedule is the hardest we have ever tackled. We play four times away from home, something a Pitt team has not done in years.

In the Notre Dame-Nebraska series each team has won five games. In the Notre Dame-Carnegie series Notre Dame has won three and Tech two. This shows the relative strength. We play all three teams. "My prediction is that we will win some games we may be expected to lose and lose some which look like sure victories." "Jock" praised his 1929 team, and said perfect harmony existed in the ranks.

"When I can't have harmony," he added, "I will quit coaching. I did less coaching, last season than for two or three years, because I had an experienced team, and the spirit was fine."

Coach Ralph Hogan shifted his lineup at the start, putting Nease, his only dependable shooter, guard, along with Rosenzweig. Little Jimmy Leonard was paired at forward position with Webster. The shots Carnegie had at the hoop in the first half were few as the Titans presented a formidable defense with Phil Rice, as neat a guard as has opposed the Skibos here, co-operating well with Kocheran and O'Don-ovan in breaking up Tartan maneuvers.

The visitors had a rangy team with a smooth, passing offensive and a quick checking defense, Crowell did the under-basket looping, but Kocheran and O'Donovan aided with skillful ball handling. While Westminster was attempting to increase its lead, the Tartans were all at sea in their attempts to advance the ball, usually messing up the plays with bad passes and "too many steps." Carnegie Stages Rally. Carnegie's spurt in the latter part of the contest seemingly bewildered the New Wilmington passers who scored but eight points while the Tartans counted eleven. However, the superb looping of their center had been sufficient to give the visitors a lead too great for the Tartans to overcome.

Miss Marjorie Morrill, sixth ranking woman player, was eliminated in the quarter finals of the national indoor singles championship by Miss Mianne Palfrey of Brookline, yesterday.

Miss Palfrey, an unseeded entrant, won in three sets, 6-4, 1-6, 7-5. Clever serving by the Brookline girl, a sister of Sarah Palfrey, one of the country's outstanding players, aided greatly in her triumph. Another upset, although somewhat expected, occurred when Miss Margaret Blake, Lenox, holder of the 1929 championship, defeated Mrs. J.

Then he explained that he had been asked to go to New Castle, and had been advertised to appear there, but had notified the people behind the affair he would not be present. Two hours later the same scribe who' had called on Wagner was in the City-County Building.

He told a group of men to whom he was talking that Wagner would be at the writers' dinner. Immediately requests for reservation of three tables were received. Last night a query was received from McKees Rocks for a reservation of two tables. "We are going to the dinner to hear Hans Wagner talk," said the McKecs Rorks representative. The old "Flying Dutchman" may not be a finished orator nor a master of pure English, but he has a story to tell, and he puts it across every time he tells it.

As he speaks, old-timers visualize him as he was a score of years ago bow legs, broad shoulders, wicked bat, and all. They see him once more in his prime, and they nudge younger men who can't remember that far back, and say: "There's the greatest ball player who ever lived."

NEW YORK Yankee officials are to hold an important conference in the metropolis tomorrow. Owner Ruppert will be there.

So will Business Manager Barrow. Manager Bob Shawkey will also be on hand. "Babe" Ruth will NOT be present. The 'Bambino" is still in Florida, playing golf and wondering what is to be done about his demand lor an $85,000 salary for the coming season. He and his contract are to be discussed by the Yankee moguls tomorrow.

Reporting day is drawing near, and Ruth hasn't made a move since he went south. When he departed from New York, Ruppert said Ruth had received the club's offer of $75,000. and the next move was up to the player. But Ruth hasn't moved, so Ruppert may do so. Fan sympathy appears to be with Ruth, in spite of the hugeness of his demands.

The average American League follower knows how reatly Ruth influences the attendance at all games in which he participates. He realizes, without him and his busy bat, the Yankees might soon become a colorless aggregation. The fans figure he is an asset to every club in the league, and many of them argue that it would be smart business on the part of the organi-ation to make him a league employe, with every club sharing in his salary. If necessary. That may be an extreme idea, but it has been advanced, nevertheless.

There was a roar of astonishment, then a silence through which a few shrill screams from far back in the darkness could be heard. Then a crash of breaking wood as the spectators climbed to their feet on the flimsy seats to see if there would be anything to see. It seemed hours.

Finally the timekeeper, realizing his mission at the ring, started to count after, a long interval. The shaggy head of Dempsey appeared above the level of the ring floor. He seemed to be propelled by many hands. He awled up painfully, clutching at the middle rope. Fir waited bewildered.

Then a joyous roar. Dempsey wa back in the ring In the corner Dempsey seemed puKh drunk, dazed. TILDEN, RYAN WIN YANKEES GET VETERAN Secure Ken Williams, Outfielder, From Boston Redsox.

He had fought almost the entire fight and had butchered the Wild Bull of the Pampas on sheer killer instinct while the fog of fighting was on him. Winning the Crown. AT TOLEDO he was Jack the Giant Killer. The dull minded Jess Willard, six feet seven inches and with arms like foremasts, did not think Dempsey could hurt him. He had visions of meeting another "little man" who would be quite as futile as Frank Moran, the only man Willard had met since winning the championship.

A thermometer registered a temperature of 116 degrees at the ringside when Willard stepped ponderously out of the corner and pawed awkwardly at Dempsey, who was weaving around him with catlike grace. Suddenly Dempsey's fist shot out and the huge bulk of Willard sagged to the hot canvas. He sat ithere on his huge haunches, utterly bewildered. First he tried to grin, but the grin turned to a look of utter idiocy. What played through his dull mind was, "The little man has knocked me down.

That's rather funny." He dragge'd himself erect and Dempsey was all around him, battering at his face, which had become gory. Seven times did Willard drop or sag helplessly against the ropes. He was down and it seemed all over. Dempsey bounded out of the ring. Then they called him back.

It was only the end of the first round. The bell had been broken and they could not hear it. They drenched Willard with water and sent him back to be butchered again. It was useless. When once more the bell rang to summon Willard to face his tormentor for the finish a soggy towel came into the ring instead.

After that the crowd surged in on the new champion. A solitary figure staggered out of the arena alone. His jaw was dislocated, he had sustained a crushed cheek bone and one of his ribs was broken. It was Jess Willard, the ex-champion. An Eventful Life.

DEMPSEY'S life was as colorful as the two great ring melodramas in which he starred, and these were two of the greatest in the entire cycle of melodramas which has been staged in the manly art of modified murder. He came to New York in the dead of winter with no overcoat and the soles out of his shoes. He fought a third rate negro prizefighter for a few hundred dollars, was beaten and had one of his ribs broken. He returned to New York a millionaire and heavyweight champion of the world. Once he landed in Philadelphia crawling from under a freight train with his brother and they had 6 cents as their capital.

He returned to Philadelphia years later to fight for the lion's share of the second largest purse ever raised for a prizefight. Again he engaged in a great ring drama, but this time he was the victim and not the star. As an ex-champion he holds as many followers as did John L. Sullivan when he was dethroned. Dempsey was a fighter who reveled in his trade and the glamour of it was much to him.

He gloried in the title of "Champ" as though it were "Emperor." And he still misses it all. He cannot keep away from the ringside. lectricallii welded The "fog of fighting" overcame him.

Bonn vacant glare in his eyes as the combat was resumed. Then the slaughter of Firpo started and it was a repetition of that butchery at Toledo. Firpo collapsed under a rain of blows, Dempsey charging like a wounded lion. Firpo was up, then down again. Again Firpo dropped and came up painfully making futile emotions with his right arm.

He dropped again and Dempsey stood close beside him and a little behind, waiting. The referee seemed dazed and fascinated by the spectacle. Once when Firpo had dragged himself to one knee and was striving to lift the other he was struck from behind and sprawled on his back again. Dempsey always- was there, hovering near him with the wild glare in his eyes. The face of the champion was savage, tigerish.

The teeth showed through the parted hps. The watching crowd became frantic and they tried to surge toward the ring, smashing benches and railings. Firpo was down for the seventh time. Then he made a few spasmodic motions and stretched out inert as the timekeeper continued to bawl the count. The referee, finally seeming to come out of a trance! moved over and raised the arm of Dempsey.

His seconds rushed out of the corner and bundled him out of the ring. Policemen beat back the crowds as they half carried him up one of the aisles. Then it was that Dempsey came out of the fog.
