S3 FAR AS tha player market is concerned. Robbie's spirit, as exemplified by his recognition of the mediocre appearance cf Brooklyn prospects. Is strong; but his flesh, exemplified by Uttia if any trading material, is woefully weak.

You cant barter for ball players with beach sari. Robbie Is due to arrive In New York early tomorrow and one of his first acts will doubtless consist of going into huddle with the directors of the Brooklyn club, to wit: Vice-President Steve McKeever. Secretary Joseph Gilleadeau, John Scholl and Frank B. York. Salaries for 1928 will doubtless make tin the bulk ot the minutes at this Imeetiru of the Brooklyn board.

Not a single Robin has yet oeen signea a contract lor next season ana a may be that some of the pitchers will prove a bit difficult. Jess Petty, the sc.mher aouthoaw. and Dazzy Vance. whose three-year contract calling for 147300 expired last fall, are the most likely holdouts. Both star Dingers wiu doubtless look for a raise.

Whether they will be offered one is problem atical. Robbie Might Swing Deal With Phillies. ROBBIE has any trades up hie sleeve, he will spring it on the unsuspecting board tomorrow. But the Dudsv one has remained in strict seclusion at Dover Hall since his last public appearance at the World icri ira euiu iud iai la. ou au known.

Tomorrow the "steering" com-mltties of the National and American Leagues meet Jointly at the Hotel Roosevelt. Tuesday the National League will talk it out at the Waldorf.

The American League meeting comes on Wednesday and the Joint Speed Without Effort man officials think it is a good idea and are following it. Keen Competition Features Contest Throughout.

Gimmeno played a brilliant game for the Brooklyn outfit, while Capt. Mae Watt starred for the borne team. Aschofl led Stevens as high scorer with 12 points. Until nearly the finish of the contest the difference in score never exceeded four points. The Jersey aggregation led at the half, 16 to 12.

From a standpoint of civil strife It looks like a peaceful week. Witu Bvron Bancroft Johnson, the tnpie- chinned. aggressive former head of the American Leagua out of ofnee. an era of good feeling or something akin to that seems in store lor the major leagues.

But life Is rut one thing after an other, and although the two major leagues seem to have buried the hatchet, they will dig that weapon up and jointly wield it In the direction of a common enemy. The minor leaguea have taken issue with tha big boys on the subject of the draft, and the disoute may resolve into a long and bitter war. Climax Due In Draft Diafastlea. THE DRAFT DISPUTE baa long been a sore spot prohibiting really amicable relations between tha majors and the minors, but the ac-tion taken by the minors at their Dallas meeting last week was the first since 1031 calculated to bring about an open break. By removing five leagues, including the International, Pacific Coast and American Association, from the "compromise" draft in force since 1922, the minors have delivered what amounts to an ultimatum.

It up to the majors to do something about it. Practically the same situation existed in 1921, when the larger minor leagues positively kicked over the traces at the old form of draft and refused to submit to a draft of any sort. The majors retaliated bv refusing to send players out on option or release players outright to such lea-rues' as refused to subject themselves to the draft. That put the insurgent up against it ar.d they were to airee to a compromise in the form of a modified draft, which enabled the majors to drr.ft any th.it had come to those leagues direct from a major league club. Smaller Leagues Ceased Latent Crista.

'T-IAT PROPOSITION seemed to i solve the problem until the smaller minor leagues squawked. "Why," said the magnates of a Class league, "should all of our plfiyers be subject to the draft, while only a certain percenta-je of players in a Class AA league can be grabbed by the majors? It ain't right." So last week at Dallas minor leagues voted that those high-grade minor leagues which have been subject to the modified draft be subject to no draft at all in the future. The majors are certain not to look favorably upon this latest move of the other fellows, and at their meetings this week resolutions may be carried, measures may be adopted and something actually may be done to meet the latest move of the minora.

Mullins Should Be Last To Draw "Color Line." Mullins yelps something about a 'color line" being drawn, inferring, possibly, that George might ruin his social standing were he to fraternize with the ebony-hued gent. That Is indeed funny. Mullins. who spent a wholesome part of the last 10 years the cause of Harry Wills, the "Black Panther." should be the last one to etch a "cor line' for Courtney. That is.

and U. W. H. A. and the papular one-act play "She Must Marry a Doctor." For Wednesday evening a Community House dance tsbeuig planned.

On Sunday night, Dec. 25. an informal reception will be held with the board of directors as host. BAZAR FOR JEWISH CENTER The bazar to raise 150.000 for the I don't mistake it The writer sat near Dempsey In Newark the nijht Mistah Wills cleaned up big Fred Fulton. Fulton had been "on hu good behavior" then.

He was fresh from a string of knockouts in England, and don't forget Fred had his momenta when he could fight. Wills' Urate Strength Would lUve Troubled Dempsey. Wills looked mighty formidible that night. I don't think Dempsey ever erased the picture of the huge black man caving In poor Fred's ribs, of the truly herculean strength he exhibited in manhandling the tall plasterer to his content Perhaps Demp-sey's speed and punching power would have beaten Wills had they fought. Yet wills tremendous brute strength and the unquestioned force of his hits made Dempsey think twice about meeting him.

And probably one calculation was enough to convince him that he would have had plenty of bother accounting for such as Harry Godfrey Looks Like Another Vletfcu of "Color Line" Club. The heavyweight mantle of the "Black Menace," once worn by Jack son, Johnson, Langford and Wills. Is now draped about the wide shoulders ot another of the awesome breed Geore Godfrey. The "Black Shadow of Leiperville." built very much alon the mafsive lines of Jack Johnson, is now fighting with the "hobbles' off Godfrey looks like the real thing In heavyweight contenders of the so called "logical" brand. He's knockins them all stiff.

It is doubtful, though, that Godfrey will get even as far as did Wills in hU quest of the heavyweight purple, Gentleman Gene" Tunuey, who has ln.Mlllwl V. a sswial Maiitnp introduced the social, register to pugilism's cash register, is another paid-up member of the "Color Line Club." To make matters worse for Mistah Godfrey, Tex Rickard, whose monopoly of boxing talent permits him to name all heavyweight championship principals, is one of the charter members of the "Color Line Club." Many Believe Godfrey Could Clean Vp Whole Heavy Division. Nearly 30 years ago there was a slight racial disturbance when Jack Johnscn chastised Mr. Jim Jeffries, and. though conditions are totally different now, Tex hits the ceiling at the mention ol a mixed bout for the big title.

Hickard as well as Dempsey was responsible for Harry Wills retiring without his "shot" at the heavyweight bauble. He would never promote or even consider staging, a match between the two. All of 'vhlch doesn't exactly paint a roseate heavyweight future for Mistah Godfrey. Nevertheless, there are plenty of folks who believe that right now Mistah Godfrey could clean up the whole heavyweight division. even unto its champ, Mr.

Tunney. A strange process of reasoning this argument of caste in fighting. A strange, weird way of making a living, anyhow bashing noses and curling ears, whether black or white. How can each and ali of them be other than of the same rank, socially and professionally? They can be. Some c'o the job a bit better than the rest and they become champions.

Dr. Otto Peltzer, Germany's Olympic hope, whose actions since he arrived in this country last Monday have been puzzling the amateur athletic world, exhibited hie abilities at the 13th Regiment Armory before the leading A. A. U. officials, yester-cay, as the guest of The Brooklyn Eagle.

He ran an easy quarter mile and showed why he is the half mile record holder and the conqueror of Paavo Nurmi. the Phantom rinn. Much taller, and possessing much longer legs than either Nurmi or Wide, Peltzer exhibited a stride that has yet to be equalled. That long effortless lope carried him twice around the furlong track In the official time of 57 seconds. But this was not a time trial.

Peltzer merely showed how he does it. His style it not exactly like anything seen hereabouts in recent years. The action seems all to come from the hips, with the body tense and slightly, almost imperceptibly bent forward, allowing him to gain added momentum. Dr. PelUer, it has been ahnnlH finrl trnihla rnnnincr In, doorS- But evfa Wth that long stride, which has proved ruinous to many another, he negotiated tne sharp turns on the armory track with out easing up in the least.

No Trouble on Turns. He took the turns like a veteran, although this is but his third or fourth time on a board track. Of course, he complained later about the turns. They were slightly too sharp. But he seems able to adapt himself to a new environment easily.

In conversation with the writer, Dr. Peltzer revealed a new angle to the mystery surrounding the refusal of the German athletic body to sanction his competing in the United States. How much there is in it one cannot know. It is Dr. Peltzer's opinion that Germany Is but returning a compliment.

It has been the custom of American officials not to sanction any foreign tours of American track athletes just preceding Olympic year. Germany is taking the same attitude.

A. Uyias questioned on the matter. His answtr was that, while there was no definite rule prohibiting athletes to go on foreign competitive tours in the year preceding the Olympics, the A. A. u.

and tne otner powers tnu be locked with disfavor upon the idea. Each case," he continued, "is Judged on its own merits. If there is good and sufficient reason for such a tour it is usually sanctioned. A good example is Jackson Scholz's trip this post summer Dr. Peltzer has again written the German Board of Athletic Control for permission to compete here.

He doubts, however, that the answer will be favorable. The German have high hopes that the athletes who will represent the Black Eagle at Amsterdam will accomplish wonders, and they are taking no chances of over working their ace, Peltzer. America Will Leave Lean Pickings. Peltzer's idea of Germany's chances, in fact, of all Europe's chances against our entries are summed up in his own cryptic statement, "Europe will win what America won't," and he Implied that America will leave very lean pickings. America nas oeen a wonaenui ma-venture for the tall, blond German: Everything he has seen here has drawn forth words of admiration.

Not least of these was his sight of 2,000 youngsters ranging in ages from 11 to 15 in actual athletic competition in the annual elementary school track and field meet. "We have nothing like that in Germany." he said. "I will propose the development of athletics in German schools on similar lines to tne eauca tional department at home. This is really remarkable."
