"I don't even know the man," when asked about a St. Louis report that Emory C. Perry, Chicago consulting engineer, expected to make an offer for the American League baseball club in behalf of a syndicate. "I never even heard of the man and I've received no offer," added the president of the Browns, who are here for a series against the Boston Red Sox. Asked what his reaction might be should he receive a bid to sell the club.

The offer, received here by wire, explained that $50,000 would be paid to Graziano and 925,000 to Zale when they sign the contract and that the balance would he given to both fighters 48 hours before the bout. Voiler explained it would be a charity show with "nothing for the promoter." Irving Cohen, Grazlano's manager, wired Voiler that he would consider the offer.

"An offer of this size you have to consider," he said. Cohen said he and Graziano do not expect to appear before the New York State Athletic commission to apply for the return of Grazlano's license to box In this state until next September. Grazlano's license was revoked last January for failure to report a bribe offer for a fight which never came off. Licensing for the 1948 period begins Oct. 1.

In finding that Ron Northey, pudgy St. Louia outfielder, had indeed prevented from scoring an inside-the-park home run In the ninth inning by the action of Umpire Eeans Rear-don In telling him to "alow down," the league president said he was basing hi decision on "fairness, common sense and sportsmanship." After carefully stating both sides of the argument, Frick said he would ordt.r tre game placed in the records as having been a 3-3 tie, with the individual records of the players to stand except that no pitcher will be accorded a win or a defeat.

He did. not specify that the two teanit major leagues who became agents and later signed league clubs for more than fo.Ooo a year now were designated as bonus players. "I do not believe that the frarr.ers of the bonus rule had in mind that it should cover such cases the cc missioner said.

Cohen said Graziano probably would have one over-weight non-title fight this year and then risk his title against Zale early next year. The non-title affair probably will be in October or November, depending on Grazlano's recovery from hurts received in the last Zale bout. One of the reasons for the delay until next year, of course, is the Income tax status of both fighters. Zale received about 9140,000 for the Chicago fight in which he lost the title and Graziano was paid about 970,000 in winning the championship.

Reardon, umpiring at third, thought the ball had gone into the stands, and when Northey came winging to third he told him to take it easy. Northey put on the brakes, and by the time he awakened to the true situation it was too late. On a fast relay he was thrown out at the plate. The Dodgers, quick to show their appreciation of Reardon's action, poured across three runs in their ha'f of the Inning to take the decision that is. temporarily.

For your information, I feel it proper for me to point out that while a written agreement was not made between the representatives of the district chairmen concerning this series, an oral agreement to play the first and third games here at Betty Virginia park and the second at Natchitoches was made in the presence of witnesses, including Judge James IT. Galloway of the local district court, and others of comparably unquestionable repute, and that two-thirds of this agreement was cheerfully carried out by both parties two of the three games and only after the neoond game was played waa any protest as to Betty Virginia park made, I think I am fully Justified in stating that any inference that this park Is Inferior to, or even no better than, any similar park in any Central or North Louisiana, city simply cannot be substantiated in any way before any impartial Judge or Jury.

Bailey said that the Natchitoches officials, immediately after the second game, had offered him a guarantee of $100 and all expense to play the last game In Natchitoches, but that he had refused the offer. After receiving the protest from the Natchitoches team, Martlnea contacted Bert Kouns, fourth district chairman for American Legion baseball, late Thursday night, and told him that he would rule on the request yesterday. He Informed Kouns by telegram yesterday morning that the game would have to be played in Minden.

Bailey said last night that Commissioner Martinez, violated the rules of the American Leglou Junior Baae-ball league when he failed to be present at the meeting or to have his representative there when the schedule for the sectional playoff was arranged. "We had a perfect agreement on where the three games were to be played," Bailey said. "The dates and places were advertised In advance. We did not present the written agreement to Commissioner Martinez because neither he nor his representative was present. We did the thing that we had done before arrange the dates and places of the games." In asking that the contest be awarded to the Bluebyrds, and protesting the ruling.

Bert Kouns. fourth district chairman, sent the following telegram to Commissioner Martinez: "Although denying that you have the right or cause for your act In ordering a game to be played at Minden on Saturday which waa originally agreed upon and scheduled to be played in Shreveport Friday the Andress Bluebyrds will comply with your order under protest, while at same time claiming forfeiture of Friday's scheduled game, under the rules of baseball due to failure of Natchitoches to appear for Friday' scheduled game. "Formal claim of the forfeiture and protest against having to comply with your arbitrary, unwarranted and unprecedented order is being prepared and forwarded to you by the City softball fans will be treated tonight to what many rate as the best women's game of the season, when Elite Cleaners and Southern Bell teams meet at Princess park at 7 o'clock. Southern Bell moved up from the bottom of the pack and looms as Elite's biggest threat In the title play-offs that will soon get under way. Tuesday night the teams met and Elite won in the last Inning on a home run by Jere Mills with Payne on base.

The regular season's schedule has ended but the game tonight is a "make up" contest for a postponement when Elite went on a road tour late last month. All teams have two games to make up next week. The Cleaners will go into the contest without the services of Abbie Abernathy, mainstay all season, who broke her Instep in Tuesday's contest. She will be Idle about three weeks.

Babe McCoy. Los Angeles promoter, said today he had offered Rocky Graziano, newly crowned middleweight champion, 940.000 to his title against Bernard Docusen or New Orleans, in Wrigley Field, Lo Angeles, on Sept. 13. Docusen, up to now a welterweight, was offered 915,000 and has accepted the offer, McCoy added. Chances that Graziano would accept appeared slim here although his manager, Irving Cohen, could not be reached.

It was pointed out that Graziano agreed to give Tony Zale of Gary, from whom he won the title on July 16. a chance to regain the crown within 90 days. McCoy said he thought the bout would draw 9200.000 in Los Angeles and that Graziano had been given an offer of 940.000 or 40 per cent of the gate.
