Whatever the short comings of the 1928 crop of big: league managers, not a man among them who is apt to get swindled in a baseball deal. Little trading took place at the annual winter meetings and it wag principally because every club wanted a couple of real ball players in exchange for a flock of dubs. The Brown -Tiger trade, the Cuyler deal and the Sisler sale constitute the biggest transactions since the Tanks won the championship last October.

Borah was first declared put forth a strenuous effort to send as many men to Antwerp as any other Institution representing the United States in the international competition.

In the five-play playoff, Fullerton worked the ball to the Long Beach 40-yard line onlyto have the Jackrabbit 130-pounders, on their fourth trial, worka reverse play, a lateral pass and then a forward pass toElliott, all of this actually on one play, and get away with it behalf.

Manush and Blue are two rattling good players. Rice is a youngster and a better than fair outfielder, but Vangilder is a second rate pitcher. The Senators added offensive strength in George Sisler whom they purchased from the Browns for $25,000. Sisler may prove to be the best buy of several baseball years. The Athletics have let Zack Wheat and Ty Cobb go, but have obtained a brilliant youngster in Ossie Orwoll, pitcher-outfielder, from Milwaukee.

Red Sox Buy The Red Sox bought Ken Wil liams, one time home run king of the American league, from the Browns. The White Sox strengthened any. They paid $123,000 for Chalmer Cissel, the Portland star, when they already had three shortstops. The Cubs have added reinforcements and are going to kick up a lot of dust in the National league race next season. Cuyler, added to Stephenson, Webb, Wilson and Heathcote, gives the Cubs just about the best outfield in the league.

The Pirates have plugged the gap at second by the acquisition of Adams. The Robins will have a new fielder in Bissonette, recalled from the International league; Riconda, formerly with the Braves; Bancroft bought from Boston for $20,000 and Friberg, former Cub, caught in the draft. The only important catch was "Lefty" slugging outfielder from the Coast league. The Cards acquired Mokan, outfielder, Cooney, infielder, and Claude Jonnard, catcher, from the Phillie and bought Frank Gibson, catcher, from the Braves, but none of them are prospective regulars. The Phillies got Jimmy Ring, pitcher, and John Schulte, catcher, from the Cards.

This conflict of cut artistry, the major metropolitan billiard contest of the winter, has aroused keener Interest than any similar duel for many years. Cochran will be defending his championship against a former titleholder, son of Old Jake the wizard, who has surpassed even the records of his illustrious father This is the first time in history that a championship will be decided In five blocks of 300 points each. In titular matches of the past, the blocks have been of greater length.

The proceeds will go to charity. The Southerners are represented by a group of backfield stars with the triple-threat complex, according to the advance notices received here. Billy Spears of Vanderbilt. Roy Estes of the University of Georgia, Johnny Meanville, Tulane and Jack McDowell of North Carolina State are the versatile ball carriers.

Andy group of All-American football players from the east and stars of the west began practice today for their annual classic next Monday.

The western squad today had virtually all assembled here and will also go through a preliminary workout today. JU IDEA OF RELIEF PITCHERS Is it wise to use a veteran star pitcher as relief man when some pitcher is faltering in the late innings? Managers of major league clubs are about evenly divided on the question. There are some who argue it Is wisdom to slip the opposition your best bet in an effort to hold a one or two-run lead late In the game. Others use their pitching ace only as a last resort, where the winning of the game is of vital importance in keeping the club in the race. I have never seen a greater starting or relief pitcher than Ed Walsh, of the old Chicago White Sox.

Walsh, a glutton for work during his career, usually performed In about 50 games during a season, often five or ten more. I once asked Walsh which he would rather do, start a ball game and finish it or be pressed into service, say three innings, to hold a one-run lead. "There is nothing harder than relief he replied. "I have often worked three innings at top speed, where it wae necessary to bear down on every bail pitched, and felt more tired at the finish than after working a regular nine- inning ALEX HAS SAME IDEA One of the star pitchers, still In active service, who shares the opinion of Ed Walsh Is none other than the great Grover Cleveland Alexander. In his prime, Alexander never demurred to act as pinch pitcher.

However, the strain, sooner or later, takes its toll and Alexander feels that had he nursed himself along, instead of stepping into every breach that called for relief work, he would be a much better pitcher today. "There cames a time in the career of every pitcher when doing relief work is out of the question," says Alex. "When a youngster, it appear to be at all difficult, but as pitcher gets up JESS SWEETSER, HERO OF MUIRFIELD, PLANS RETURN TO GOLF THIS SUMMER By FRANCIS J. POWERS (Consolidated Press Correspondent) I NEW YORK, Dec. more! cheering news has come across the bunkered terrain in many a year I than that Jess Sweetser, the hero of Muirfield will be back in golf- ing wars next summer ready to battle, theemperor Jones, George Von Elm and the rest of the amateur clan.

Definite assurance that the Si- wanoy Blonde had sufficiently recovered his health to resume competition was made at a meeting of the Metropolitan Golf association this week where Sweetser appeared, the picture of perfect health. Sweetser has fought a hard battle to regain the physical form he lost at Muirfield where he won the British amateur championship in 1926, against odds that would have daunted almost any other man. During that struggle he was forced to give up golf competition almost entirely and the flash of his irons has not been seen In the United States amateur since the battle of Oakmont In 1925. The return of Sweetser to the championships may produce the very battle every golfer has hoped to meeting of Bobby Jones and Jess, who is one of the few amateurs who has an edge on Jones. They met only at Brokline in 1922, when Jess won the United States amateur and Sweetser was the victor by a wide margin.

Joines never has had chance to wipe out that defeat and he will be hoping when the amateurs meet In Braeburn, that the luck of the game will throw him victory from the New Yorker. No match ever produced more thrilling shots than that duel In 1922. That play from the second hole never will be forgotten by those who saw it. Jones played a beautiful drive down the center of the fairway while Bhot was some few yards behind. Playing the odd, Jess pulled out a rusty spade mashie and dropped the ball in front of the cup with such accuracy that it rolled into1 the hole for a deuce.

Jones, then a bit less calm under the strain of a golf duel, gave a vicious yank to his mashie he! pulled it from the bag, for second shot. He pondered over the ball and then whipped it savagely toward the green. So keen was rls eye that the missile almost cut the pin and stopped only a few inches from the cup, barely robbing him of a two that would have halved the hole. Sweetser will compete in the United States Amateur, the Walker cup matches and a few of the more important events of the metropolitan district but has no intention of attempting to overdo his comeback. That he will be a member of the Walker cup team which meets the British in Chicago next August is certain.

And his presence on that team will give the United States one of the strongest representations It ever had for international event, in years, he finds he is not physi cally strong enough to so perform. in 1923 I decided that I was through as a pinch pitcher ad since then have rarely appeared in such a role, and then only as a pennant-winning proposition. "Since then I have pitched consistently good ball. fact that at 40 of age I won 20 games last season Is, I feel, ample proof of the wisdom of my belief that pinch pitching (Continued on oage 9) Radiolas Let Vs Tell You Our Christmas Plan Open Evenings The DEN W.

Onion Sets at BY GRIDDER "Shorty" Smith, of Fullerton, and his "Big Red were the interscholastro football champions of Southern ifornia today following thair prising and spectacular victory over Santa Maria high school, 20 to 13, in the last lap of a gruelling elifn- series at Wrigley fiald, Los Angeles, last Saturday afternoon. The champions of the Orange County league, improving with every start, meet the Bakersfield Drillers for the state title In the Los Angeles Coliseum next Saturday. Bakersfield ran roughshod over the Indians in an early season game but henchmen have come along so fast in the last month that a Fullerton victory would not be particularly surprising. This is the first year since 1921, when Santa great led by such heroes as Cravath, Bart Cock, Don Williams, Newt Stark, Earl Jabs and Wilcox, swept all before It, that an Orange county team has anexed the Southern California crown. Bakersfield In Finale Bakersfield reached the finals by dropping San Mateo, state monarchs of 1926, in San Francisco by a 14 to 0 count Saturday.

Fullerton snatched its victory out of impending defeat. The "Big Red got away to a fumbling start that paved the way to a pair of Santa Maria touchdowns but, Smith teams have done ever since the former Santa Anan broke into the coaching business, Fullerton came back fighting desperately in the second half, scored two touchdowns, fumbled on the 1- yard line to lose another and completely demoralized the Saint who had decisively outplayed them through the first two periods. Both elevens played a rugged defensive game, with the honors going to the lighter Fullerton team. Both clubs made 12 first downs. Santa Maria kicked off, Fullerton fumbled on the second play and the Saint had the ball on the Orange county 10-yard line and Adams kicked out of immediate danger but Santa Maria kept the bell deep in "Red" territory, finally scoring after a series of reverses and triple passes.

Rahbar went across and Haslam kicked goaL Tie Score Fullerton tied the score about middle of the second quarter as the result of a bit of poor Santa Maria headwork. Adams had kicked beautifully to the 1-yard mark and the Northerners attempted a lateral pass, only to fumble, and McElheny fell on the ball back of the line for a touchdown. Hershberger kicked goal. Santa Marla marched right down the field 54 yards to its second and last touchdown following the next kickoff. Fullerton seemed bewildered by the lateral passes and Rahbar was not molested when plunged over for the score to complete this determined ground-gaining.

try for goal was blocked. Fullerton outclassed the Saint In the second half. Hershberger went over for a touchdown near the end of the period after the had the ball in Santa Maria ground all (Continued on Page 9) A Useful Gift A ORDER for an Uttley Hat will be sure to please.
