Things were not breakine as thev should There was some trouble with the counsels oi tne team. Judge Fuchs had to take a good slice of the stock or quit the management of the business end. He accepted the responsibility, got hold of funds that gave him $100,000 worth of say so, and began negotiations with jrnnaaeipnia that resulted in one of the biggest trades of players of uie year. Since then things have been eo ing so much better that the Judge is congratuiacing nimseii on his foresight.

However, the Cards' average of winning has not increased an much since he became manager uwi, ne can De over ooastiui about winning the pennant.

HAKRISBURG TELEGRAPH FRIDAY EVENING AUGUST 25, 1933 EDITED BY vmilN6TOMG.JOWtS "THE OLD TWER5 A WELLY'S WHIFFS By Old Timer Boxers, the boys who make good, from all parts ox the state are clamoring for professional exhibitions.

Fans are doing a lot of talking, too. There is no denying: the fact that a good boxing show is a pleasing entertainment. Now that everybody is getting hungry for exhibitions along this line, it is hoped Harris burg will get action. This city has always been a good place for box ing shows. This has been proven by tne fact that the amateur exhibi tions by the "Three Bills," Granoff.

Reindell and Runk, have attracted good crowds. The success of these shows have resulted in the belief that Harrisburg is ready for professional bouts. BUI Reindell was in Atlantic City last week, and while there met a number of boxers, managers and promoters. They were all anxious to know whether Harrisburg was troing to ret busy during the fall and winter, and "Bill" said if was shown that the boxers on a professional card would make good, and there is no stalling, or bouts made up with boys from the same stable, Harrisburg would show approval by patronizing a good show. That has been the trouble, bouts that appeared on the surface all right, but when fighters got into action, that old time spirit of fighting to win was not in evidence.

The "Three Bills" have had their heads together. They are getting ready ior some amateur snows, ana at the same time are looking around for desirable talent for a nrofes sional card. Pour six round battles with on eight round and a wind up of ten or fifteen rounds, with real honest to goodness battlers would put this city on the boxing man. There are a number or eood boys in the Coal Regions, about Al toona, in Williamsport, Pittsburgh, Johnstown and elsewhere. It is worth a trial.

One must get away from home sometimes for a piece of good sports news. The Sporting News for week of August 17, tells about Lester Bell, erstwhile Chicago Cub star, being signed by Winston Salem club of the Piedmont League. Thanks to the friend on the Hill who tipped me off, verifying the news item. The fact that Bell had been signed by Winston Salem was known, but someone, just like the boy from the Hill, was the first to bring the verifica tion. Glad someone is taking this column seriously.

The writer will need help. He got another good story from Highspire that is published today in another column. Again let us be thankful. Referring to Lester Bell, It is very gratifying to know he has a job. He is entitled to consideration at all times.

It was not the best kind of business policy for Harrisburg to let him go. Of course, he has his shortcomings. Who is it that does not fall short sometimes? "Bell may not be able to get that ball over to first base always on time, and he may not hit as often as some would like to see him. but he is a baseball player, gives the best he can and has a head on him that must not be overlooked. Even on the bench, giving suggestions, pinch hitting or filling in when neeaea, Lester tseu is a very valuable man.

He was also popular with the fans. That means a whole lot. At Millersburg, September 1, a ereat bicycle racing program will be staged, under the auspices of the American Legion of that place. The promoter of this event is none other than Tommy Muggio, champion long distance and real speedboy on a bicycle. He will make good.

Tommy is no stranger here. He lived at Dauphin, worked at Enola, and many mornings rode from his home to work, returning in the evening. He almost lives on a bicycle, holds a number of titles, and is acquainted with racers in his business all over the United States. There will be a big crowd of Harris burgers eo to Millersburg to see this show. MAX CAREY TO MANAGE DODGERS New York, Aug.

25, The turn over in major league managerships may be as great as ever before the 1934 season opens but the Brooklyn Dodgers, hitherto regarded as most likely to make a change, have de cided to hang on to Max Carey for another year. Max was re engaged for the 1934 campaign yesterday despite the fact he has been under fire all season because of the Dodgers' poor snowing in the National League. Picked to finish well up with the leaders, the club has had a tough battle to keen out of the ceaar ana mere have been presistent reports Carey would be succeeded either by Gabby Street, deposed leader of the St. Louis Cardinals, or Burleigh Grimes, veteran pitcher now with the cardinals.

RABBITS MAY SHOW SHORTAGE Season Open to rs for Sixteen Days; Stagger System Pennsylvania is faced with a shortage in rabbits. During the coming hunting sea son the sportsmen will be allowed to shoot them on days in November, the briefest season on record.

When the action of, the State Game Commission became known there was some criticism among the hunters, but hard facts have to be faced and the commission had no other course than to shorten the season.

And there is no closed season on the motor car; it kills 'em spring, summer, autumn and winter. Western states where Pennsylr vania formerly purchased from 40, uuu to ou.ooo cottontails for stock now have adopted laws to prevent shipments.

VAN KLAVEREN TO MEET PETROLLE Fargo Fighter Is Getting on in Years but Can Fight fConvrieht.

1933. bv Harrisbure Telegraph) New York, Aug. 25. Bep Van Klaveren. the fistic Dutch cleanser started somethine new when he ap plied for permission to meet amy Petrolle in a return fight on the first ooen date selected by Al Weill, local matchmaker.

Bep was compelled to unaergo a ciose examination for eve iniuries before the Boxine Commission would sanction a return meeting between the Dutchman and the ole blanket man from Fargo, North Dakota. In their first meetina Van Klav eren showed up with a badly injured eye, and the stiff white patch was a fair target for Petrolle's left hooks. Billy knocked the patch off several times and reopened the wound. A. commission doctor ex amined the wound after one round, reluctantly permited the fight to another round, ana tnen signaled a halt.

Petrolle Getting Old Van Klaveren has no one to blame but himself for the first knockout charged to his record. He has been fighting long enough to know when he Is fit for a tough bout, especially one in which his opponent hits with tne trip nam mer effect of Billy's left hook. Petrolle has been on the side lines since that fight. Billy is getting old as fighters go and his manager, Jack Hurley, does not care to send him into the ring as often as he did a few years back. Billy stores up his energy between fights and In that way keeps among the topnotchers.

Will Be Retired The Fargoan was never meant to piay second fiddle to anv nenter in his class. His record is far too good to permit tnat. A bond of affection and loyalty exists between Petrolle and Hurley. When the time comes tnat Binv must fleht under the top card Hurley will promptly retire his veteran battler and call it a day. Mo one, least of all Hurley, wants to see a tried and true battler like Billy Petrolle being punch Bagby's turn came, he had slipped led around by up and coming away.
