Forty-seven plajcrs were lecast ns n result fit sale or trade and no less than fourteen deals, the majority of which Were big ones, were recorded. Only the White Bos nnd Tigers did no tinil Itig, the latter, however, selling one player. Tho greatest scramble between two teams In many long moons wns (ijiat engaged, In by Connie Mack on tho one side and the lloston lied So on .tho of ler. The home-town Harum drew no less than n half dozen former ostoldans In the two separate and distinct swaps as well as a lurgo bunch Of Con, roughly estimated at $60,000, while the Ueantown crew took us Us . are of tho Mack booty four of the real stars of the pastime In Mclo lis, Strunk, Schang und Hush. Cady, "Walter, Kopp, Gardner, Orcgc Tfnd Thomas wero Connie's pick. Nearly one fifth of tho players reshullled Jh the line-up of both lei jues thus came and went In tho duo of Phlla-delphla-Boston transactions. The next biggest wholesale swap wis between the VanUs and Drowns. so In two bites at the trading app'i s eight pliijers were compelled to Change uniforms, six of these being Yankees Gedeon, MuUel, Nunntntikcr, Shocker and Cullop went to the Drowns for 1'iatt, Plank and coin, while jjtfer on Tim Hendryx also was moxril oer to the Browns nnd t.co M.iri'c Jiunted out of the league nnd Into a Cincinnati plajlng suit. With their usual appetite for swapping the Browns also put ocr u trade with U'l.uko 'Orlfllth, Lavan and ShottPii going to Washington for Pitcher Bert Galliti and money. And a third deal brought Ping llodle. Connto Mack's third trade, which pushed tho Yanks Into tho lend hi chief traders In both circuits In point of number of nlcn engaged, wna u triangular affair, which compelled Miller Hugglns to buy George Hums and 'turn him over to tho local manager for Ping Hodle. Connie used leverage, both with Boston and New York In putting through his leclamatlon work anU compelled thoso managers to do the worrying and the hustling iiects- ary to strengthen his hand. rpiIRCU plajcrs were shifted In Intcrleaguo Hades, these being l9 X t,eo Magee, Shean nnd Foster. 12crs went from his long-time berth In the National to tho American, but Johnny was unattached. Two Spectacular Deals in National NATURALLY tho one big deal In point of player celebiltj and money was that which took Alexnnder. Klllifer and Paskcrt to the Cubs from the Phils In exchange for a swell bunch of coin, said to halo been $ 60,000, and plajcrs Prendergast Ullhoefer and Williams. Tho publicity given this transaction was greatly enhanced ns a result of tho great former pitcher of the Phils holding out for n big bonus, half of which ho It supposed to have got, and then Just as the reason was opening word of his having been drafted. The most complex and complicated deal of tho year in cither Icaguo was that triangular affair which was supposed to have taken Herzog, Wilson and Smith to the Braves, Doyle and Barnes to tho Giants and Tyler to the Cubs. Wilson und Doylo were Cubs last season, Barnes and Doyle members of the Braves and Herzog nnd Smith of the Giants. This entire transaction may be tin own Into the ulr today if Herog carries out his Intention of reporting to McGrnw and follows this act up with legal proceedings. With the. smash-up of this deal Stallings would have Barnes and Doyle back and Herzog and Jack Smith would revolt to New York. The third deal of moment In the National the last season w.w, that engaged In between Owners Kbbcts, of Brooklyn, and Drey fuss, of Pitts burgh. Five players wore Involved, Brooklyn getting Pitchers Mamaux and Grimes and Inflelder Ward nnd Pittsburgh securing Outfielder Stengel and Inflelder Cutshaw. The Phillies put over the season's final deal when Second Baseman Nlehoff was sent to St. Louis In exchange for Pitcher Mule Watson. Cincinnati Is tho only team to have put over a couple of Intcrleaguo deals. Lee Magee was secured from the St. Louis Browns and i:ddle Foster is ilathewson's propel ty us a result of the exchange to tho Boston Bed Sox of Second Baseman Sheun. Foster ls'holdk.g out as yet and Mnthew nson may pry off Weldon WyckofT as pinch twlrlcr in the emergency. LEE MAGEE Is the only player to havo been swapped twice, and at the samo time he Jumped from one league to tho other. Eddie Plank, Cy Wlllinms nnd diet Thomas, tho last two supposed to have come to tho Phillies nnd Athletics, respectively, are booked N as having permanently retired. Baseball War Tonic, Declares Tener IT WAS a good, clear, ringing note sounded by President John K. Tener at tho start of the baseball season. It calls for a patriotic response on tho part of the national game and at the same tlmo makes a timely appeal for the value of the game to those who must remain at home and Co their war bit and at the same time keep clear heads and good spirits. President Tener declares. "Under the selective draft or conscription act professional baseball players are called to tho service of their country pi eclsely the same as those In nny other profession, vocation or walk in life, and have answered, and are Just as ready to answer the call, either by enlistment or draft, as other patriotic citizens, but until that call comes they must, ns they should, continue to earn their livelihood In the profession which gives to them the greatest compensating 'return and in which they are most expert. Many players have enllstedand under tho operation of tho draft law baseball has furnished Its quota. "We all realize, especially at this hour, tho pressing call that Is upon each of us to aid our country In doing all In our power to quickly furnish men and means to combat the enemy nnd to Insure an early and com plete victory to our arms, and this effort will bo best sustained by getting into tho open and Into the sunshine occasionally and by either witnessing or participating In outdoor sports to gain that health and vigor and alert ness of intellect necessary- to do well the work that may come to our hand," PAHTING attention Is called to tho fact that baseball has been proved already by Canadians to be the Ideal war spoit tho very spirit and Inspiration that fits tho players for the 'supreme effort of the soldier. Tennis Sure to Have Big Season Once More COMMENT has been previously made upon the tremendous boost sure to be given this season as a result of the general restoration of champion ships. This fact is well proved by the publication of official tourney s sanctioned by the Ancrican National Lawn Tennis Association. More than ISO clubs applied Xor dates, and this does not Include matches for boys and BlrW. Philadelphia will be a big center of net activity during the warm months. Six big tournaments are, scheduled, including national champion ship play In Singles, doubles and,mlxed doubles for women nnd girls. This ' play will be upon the courts' of the Philadelphia Cricket Club at Chestnut Hill beginning Juno 17. The State championship play will take place at the. Merlon Cricket Club starting June 10 and tho Intercollegiate champion ships at the same club to begin September 9. Opening championship play will he for the Pennsylvania and Eastern States women's championship at the Merlon Cricket Club Juno 3. The Cynvvyd Club will bo host to tho eastern Pennsylvania class beginning July 27 nnd the district tourney will fi held at the Gcrmantown Club, ending the championship season, starting September1 16. Taking up tennis as a regular army sport ulso will help give a big 'boost to racket play this year. Hundreds of courts have been erected at ;,VHmy camps and men who never played the game before have been en- ewuragjd to take It up and, under instruction, may be expected to like tho jPHne enough to keep on playing it when the weary war Is won. ANOTHER indication of the increasing popularity of tennis this season is to be noticed in the great number of community and private courts that are under way in and about this city and the fact lhat a like condition is reported elsewhere.
