CINCINNATI REDS STICK TO ORLANDO Manager Hendricks Is Aim i n g at Accomplishing Dream of Late Moran?To Beat New York. By JOHN B. FOSTER IW4. kr Th? Atfvano* Orlando, Fla., April 5.?Tarrying later at Orlando to obtain the best results of training here whore the soothing air favors old ball players, the Cincinnati Rods are trying to get themselves in shape to win the pen-] nant that Pat Moran was confident! would come tholr way this season. I The" National league team never trained under sadder conditions. All, winter the Cincinnati players had dreamed of winning the champion ship under Moran's leadership. Ev en while the defeat of the Giants by 1 the Yanks in the world series was the upnermost topic of baseball. Mo ran was scheming ways and means of winning the 1924 title. "I think my chance has come,"! Moran told the wrltor at Chicago during the winter. "I firmly believe I I will be able to defeat New York next season. My team Is unchanged oxoent for the pitchers, where I think I have addod groat strength." And then, lust as the training season opened. Moran foil 111 and died. He carried with him the plan of campaign be had manpod out for tbo season. Probably, however, his idea was to . norfoct as much as nos slhlo team hitting methods that would score tbo run or two which the Reds so often failed to get in 1923. At my rato. this Is the thoorv that Jark Hendricks, who know Moran nnd his wnvs. Is trvfmr to work out. It is a svstem whioh Is ossontial to n team like tbo Rods, most of whom hnvo pn< and the sfr\u?- whore they ran be expected to do anything radi cal. Youth Is too for behind them for that. Thov must got nil thov can out of stralsht-forwnrd nlugglng for every run In sight bv the sacri fice nnd bit nnd run game. Thov nro not fast enough to run loose on I tbo hnsos. "I have found overv nlnyer on' the team roadv and willing to eo opernio with mo/* savs Hendricks, eratefullv. "Not one of them has ; thrown the slightest hindrance in mv , wav. Some poonle have said that itj 1 would be very bard for mo to tako 1 Moran's place, because his ways and * mot hods bad become a pari of thoM club's scheme. I haven't found al( singlo player who has oven suggest-1 ed ? tint what I propose wnulil not' have born Pat's way.

MORGAN & COMPANY FOR THE GAMES SAKE BYUAWRENCE PERRY C?*yr<?k'w 1*24. b? Tht Ad.iiM Moe Berg's release from the Brooklyn National League team for a temporary period while he goes through the minor league grill calls to mind the fact that college athletes with resounding reputations do not always maintain their prestige in or ganized baseball. In fact the recent list of college stars recruited to the big leagues contains more than one blasted hope. Johnny Mohardt, the great Notre Dame football player. Is languishing In the Southern League. Paul Cast-( ner from the same University has made no ten strike with the White 6?x. Glenn Killlnger, of Penn State, a great half back, has quit the minor leagues for a football coaching Job. Hlnkey Haines did not make good with the Yanks and went to the min ors. Urban, the great Boston college footballer, has not risen to fame with the Yankees. Yet that the line between college and organized baseball does not con stitute an insurmountable barrier Is proved by not a few recent college! grads who have made good In major j company, since Slsler's entry. First of all. Frank Frisch. of the J Giants. Fordham was his alma ma ter. Then there Is Joe Dugan of the .Yanks. Holy Cross. 1917. Aaron Ward, also of the Yanks came from | the Ouachita College. Harry Heil 1 mann. of Detroit was a Sacred Heart player on the West Coast. Stephen son. the nifty Cleveland lnfielder. I was graduated from University of I Alabama in 1918. Jackson who will probably be a i Giant infielder this year, came out of Ouachita in 1920. Lou Gehring. I of Columbia, is expected to be a reg ular infielder for the Yankees. Ar nold Statz. Holy Cross. 1919, is with the Chicago Cubs, making good. Howard Freltau, Ohio Wesleyan,, 1922. is doing well with - the St. Louis Cards. Horace Ford, of the Phillies, was at Tufts in 1917. There are others, but these seem to be the high lights. More and more, former Notre Dame stars of the gridiron are carry ing the Rockne gospel abroad. The latest coup in this respect goes to the credit of the University of Geor-1 gla which has secured Harry Mehre. i center at South Bend in *19. '20/21, as line coach. Georgia Tech take notice. All Dill Alexander needs Is a thorough going line instructor. tlon as to how this happened. But the reason seems clear. The astute I New Yorkers probably lost no time in advising Deschaiups, Carpentler | & Company as to the attitude of the governor of Indiana, which, to say 'the least, was doubtful. Prospects (that the fight might not be permit ted. coupled with a logical prefer ence on the part of Deschamps for Tunney rather than Gibbons as an opponent for his man. in all proba bility were the deciding factors In 'Gibson's success in securing Carp. Curley will probably get little sat . isfaction in the thought that if Carp beats Gene the Frenchman will be 'available for Gibbons at a later date, because all the prospects are that the Frenchman will not prevail over the ex-marine. Carpentler as an at traction looks good for Just one bout j against a real fighter. State Defeats Guilford Raleigh. April 5.?State College [defeated Guilford here yesterday, 2 i to 0.

Copyright. 1924. by Tht Advance New York, April 5?Harry Wills displayed with a lot of pride a per fectly healed fist at the Stribling McTigue bout at which he was very much among those present. j? This means that he is ready to ? fight Hartley Madden?unless Tex ; RIckard has some reason for stop- ? ping him from going through with * this intended bout. Hut Harry spoke , as though nothing would prevent j the proposed April U6 set.to in Jer- * ley and so the fans can look forward :o a real line up on the brown pantli jr'a punching power. 4 Harry Oreb was also in attend ance at the Newark Armory and if is not found to have suffered grave j physical effects from the clouds of . tobacco smoke he was obliged to in- ' hnle he will shortly be seen in \ action. First come first served. ?? Harry thinks well of Strihling. ) His opinion was thnt if Strihling had ? [lone less wild hitting and taken timol' to measure McTigue in that tenth \ round ho would now be light heavy i ?hampion of the world. Strihling ^ s not by any means a lighter hitter, . *ays Harry. As Greb may meet, Strihling some time this year his " flews were interesting to thear. Ad Stone may fight Charloy Weln ?rt soon and if he does, and wins liandily the Phlladelphian cannot be disregarded as a very important con*- > tender for the light heavy title. I Weinert looked to be in very good condition at the Jersey armory and talked as though he expects to -be the cruiser weight champion himself before another spring rolls around. all certain that they will not?they will win more because they are one of the best defensive teams in the league than because of any brilliant'I or concentrated attack. Cincinnati will try to get ofT to a|l runaway start in the West right at the opening of the season. This ef-. fort will be the feature of the early! season plav. If they succeed, theiri stonewall defense may keep them in' the lead. CAKPENTIER NOW PLANS TO FIGHT GENE TUNNEY ny FAIR PI*AY '-??yrJflit. I?4. By Tk?
