MONEY NOT AN ISSUE Yankee JInnngcr Announces Fewster Will-B- nt Third Itaso Next Sonson. nr pltliliCIMCK C. MED, John Franklin Baker, tho slugging third baseman of tho Yankees, In all probability linn played Ills last big letgue ball. Miller Huggins, mnnngcr of Yankees, returned yesterday from Baker's farm at Trnppc. Mil, practically convinced that ha will havo to get nlone without Baker's famous homo run bat next reason. Baker Informed Huggins that ho had no thought of playing ball noxt season. The only promise tho Yankee manager could exact irom mo stunner woo ui If he should change his mind ho will take up the matter personally with Hug-(in- s. Huggins says ho will mako his plans for 1350 without considering Baker for third base position. Ho Intends to again bring In Fewster from tho out-fiel- d and will give him a thorough trial at third baso on training trip. Pesister never played that bag, but jilayed second baso for the Baltimore Orioles when tho Yankees purchased Mm. \Baker Is always welcome to return to the club If he should decide to come back, but I am afraid that the player Is lost to the game,\ said Huggins. could get no encouragement from'Bakcr. Jn fact, ho seems to bo even moro lnsls lent than he was last winter that he Is through with the game. reminded lo Piny Last Yenr. \I want to say that Baker played last reason only because ho thought It was his duty. Col. Huston and I went down to tee him and explained to lilm that owing to the war tho club had been hit pretty hard and had no chance to rcallzo rn tho money that was Invested In him. When It was presented to Baker In that light he consented to return. I could not bring any such argument to play on Baker this winter. N \Baker still loves tho game as much us any rookie, but he has business In- terests In Trappo which require all his time. Ho has three farms down there. Is a big stockholder In tho Trappo bank end has other business Interests. Be- tides, his wife objects to his playing any more big league ball. \I should like to put Baker right He Is sensitive to criticism and feels that on erroneous !uiie3ton has been cre- sted that he Is a holdout and that he rprlngs this retirement gag each winter to get more mQncy. I did not mention Hilary to Baker on my. recent visit, nor d.d I talk salary to him last winter un- til Col. Huston and I went down to sco Mm, Just before the .training season. Baker really would have retired several cars ago If It hadn't been for tho fact that wo always kept after him. It lieur was a question of money with him. \I will, of course, regret very much to rce Baker glvo up the game. Ho hit Just under .300 In the two years that I liae had the club and still remained one of the most dangerous men In the coun- try In the pinch. He. has slowed up a bit but his fielding remained satisfact- ory. Next to Ituth he remained the game's most spectacular home run hitter. Player of liana \Wagner Type. ''tf Baker cared to continue playing big league ball he probably would re- main a valuable player until 40.

The national skating championship races held litre to-d- as part of tho annual Ico carnival furnished many surprises. Outsiders captured most of the places, while 'the favorites ran In 111 luck throughout the afternoon. The Ice was In flno condition for the contests, which were skated over a course measuring eight laps to the mile. ' John Hoernlng, a Cleveland skater, captured tho 220 yara\ championship. This veteran displayed fine form In the sprints. Joe Moore, Lake 'Placid Club, the strong favorltefor tho championship title, won his heat and semi-fin- in the 220 ward dash. In the final event he nlso finished In front, but was disquali- fied for cutting a corner. The one mllo championship race re- sulted In another lucky victory. William Murphy, a New York skater, who rep- resents the 181st Street lee Palace, won this tvent from a fast field. His victory, however, was not decisive. Joe Moore. Boy McWhorter, a former champion, and two Lake Placid skaters, Bryant and Leltc'.i, together with Leslie Boyd, met- ropolitan champion, collided and were put out of the running. When the spill occurred iMurphy, Rus- sell Wheeler of Montreal nnd Russell Demerse of garanac Lake, were left to light out the contest. Slurphy proved superior to the others, and with excel- lent skating on the last lap won the contest by two yards, with Dcmcrso sec- ond and Wheeler third.

Max la now and was then a resident of Philadelphia, and it seems there has been no small amount ot comment in certain circles concerning the right, or at least the ethics, of his participation In tho big Jersey event, Harry Barrow, one of Marston'a cluo-mat- at Baltusrol, said so much talk had reached Max that his ears had been burning all and that ho was peeved about it, Mr, Barrow wanted the executlvo committee of the State association to Issue 'a setting forth that 3Iax, being a member of tho Baltusrol Club, with his dues nnd house accounts all paid up, had entered the lists for tho Jersey title on the express Invitation of tho State association, and that there could noi bo the slightest doubt about cither his right to competo or the of his doing so. All the members felt the same way about It, and all were very anxious to have Max know that they regard him as a, sterling sportsman, and that they were Individually and collectively sorry that such. loose talk had been going the rounds.

Heff, tho ancients think you have boon buffaloed by 'Big Bill' of the near moderns.\ Martin and Young: FItz Poor, but Tunncy Shows In so far as development of a new crop of heavy weights to dispute Jack Dcmpsey's supremacy In this country concerned tho situation seems hopeless. During the war the rise of numerous boxers ln the nrmy tourna- ments gave rise to hope that tho coming of peace would find us equipped with a greater number of real stars than over before. But the' dearth C'f first class heavyweights persists. Happenings in various rings last Mon- day night served to accentuate that fact. Bob heavyweight cham- pion of the A. E. F., who has been mentioned as a likely opponent for Georges Carpentlcr, demonstrated that ho Is to bo with seri ously when he was outpointed by Sergeant Kay\ Smith. The sergeant fought In these parts before the war and was accounted littlo better than a third rater. It appears that Martin, lacks tho punch and the aggressiveness that ere essential for success among heavyweights. He may Improve, but Just now he Is a contender for honors even against a man like BUI Brennan. Martin, by the way, thought that ho had Injured a hand against Smith and saw \Boncsettor\ Reeso ln Youngstown yesterday, but he was Informed that he had only bruised the right, Whllo Martin was taking n beating ln Cleveland Gcno Tunney, the light heavyweight champion of the A. E. was stopping a punching bap; named In the first round In Jersey City. was tho veriest tyro and It was a shamo to send him Into ring with Tunney. Tunney Is the real goods, but he lacks weight. Ho Is Just a bit heavier than a mlddlo-wclgh- t. Ho hits straight from tho shoulder nnd lands with snap and power. Tunney should get with proper handling. After Tunney's exhibition In Jersey City came a great disappointment. Young Bob FItzslmmons was heralded by the press agent as another Ruby Bob famous Jhlft and everything! If Young Bob has that FItzslmmons shift ho left ln tho gymnasium when ho went Into tho ring with West. Tho son of the one time heavyweight champion demonstrated that he cannot punch with eflcct. The elder Bob had that ar.t down to a nicety. However, the situation may notbe hopeless for the young man, though on Monday night he surely lookeiTllke a dub. Young Bob should be put at work on a bag and taught how to hit forcefully with both hands. At present ho merely pushes with his left hand and slaps with his right. Ho has stamina, speedy and his defence is good. But unless ho learns to shoot his left and right with force and precision he will remain a dub. An Interesting in lie Leonard nnd WeMi. From Miami, Fla., last night came an Associated Press despatch as follows: \Permission to stage a world's championship bout between Bennte Leonard, lightweight champion of the world, and Freddie Welsh, English champion. wa4 granted Monday by Sir William Allerdyco, Governor-Genera- l of Bahama Islands, It was learned here Tho despatch Is Interesting If It be true that Leonard and Welsh are to fight ln the Bahama Islands. It Is ln error when says that Welsh Is the lightweight champion of England, for Freddy Is an American citizen and the British title has been handed to Bob Marriott. If Welsh wants to return to the ring we cannot lmaglno why he should select the Bahamas as the scene of his effort. New Jersey would pay handsomely for the privi- lege of seeing him come back.

The managers of Stecher and Caddock will meet this afternoon and discuss tho A matter of 11 referee. Tho Impression prevailed' \that George Bothner was- - slated for the port, but it seems that t Cnddock's manager, Gcno Mclndy, Is opposed to George because Stecher 7. trained In the Intter's gymnasium. As Ji Bothner's gymnasium Is open to any ath- - ' lete who desires lo make use of It, It.\ does not appear that the objection Is a t valid one. \1 In any event, Bothner's reputation Is 1! proof against any suspicion of partiality on his part.
