The ranks in the early days will be de pleted by injuries and illness, but will come to full strength when the sun is wartpest. this seasonal conflict gets un der way the eyes of a quarter million enthusiasts will be upon the foes. The Y'ankee stadium in New Y'ork, base ball's greatest structure, Is expected to receive the largest throng, for there the world champions of 1924— led by the indomitable young general. Stanley Harris—will do battle with the Y'ankees of New York, for the three preceding years champions of the American league and of the world in 1923. Meanwhile, the National _ league champions, the Giants, encounter the Braves of Boston at the gigantic park in Allston, where another enthusiastic throng is predicted. For the second time In three sea sons the campaign will be started Without the greatest of home run hit lers, Babe Ruth, in the lineup of the Y'ankees.

Denver Grigsby of the Cubs has a broken collar bone; .loe Hauser, first baseman of the Athletics, has a broken knee cap: Fred Heimach of the Athletics ban a sprained right shoulder and numerous smaller in " juries will handicap the clubs at the start.

Melnnis has been released unconditionally by the Boston Braves for his refusal to ac cept a cut In salary and report to the training camp. But iheio will be new figures. Jim Poole, slugger of tbe Pacific Coast league, lias come from Portland to take the maimed Hauser's place with the Mackmen, and Gordon Cochrane, Boston university graduate, will be catching for the Athletics. Dick Cox may be in the Brooklyn outfield; Frank Walker in the Giants' gardens, and Earl Combs, injured a year ago. will he alongside Bob Meusei in the Yankee's outer defense.

By DAVIS .1. WAI.SII, International \>w» Rerrlro Staff Correspondent. New York. April 13.—Jack Demp spy, the well known husband, will take part In one more public alterna tion before retiring permanently to a life of ease a mb refinement, the locale being California, probably Dob An gelea, the time, September, and the party of the unfortunate second part, I Tom Gibbons. Harry Will* la out like an ex window. So Is New York is the scene of the occasion. If any. The entile program is contingent on whether Dempsey decides to step out for one more shot at the big money. Quarreling Over Split. That Is the situation as it exists today. "Word has reachced the east that the champion has been ap proaehed with tentative plans to box Gibbons in California, and baa lent a willing ear. Nothing, however, can be definitely decided until the Demp sev Kearns situation Is cleared up. Kearns may or may not be the champion's manager when the fight takes place, a showdown on this question being imminent. It will be strictly financial, according to the best ndtiees. Dempsey, they say, no longer Is willing to split 50-.">n with Kearns, and will not fight at all If anyone tries to force this angle of the sit uatlon on him. Champ Avoids Wilts. Just why the champion refuse* to do business with Wills Is a matter upon which he has not committed himself One guess Is as good aa an ; other and mine Is that Dempsey, out of the ring for nearly two years, re Sards the colored man as too tough to take on without getting at least one start out of his system. As It Is virtually certain that he will fight only once. If then, Wills will get the wide detour again. Since the New York state athletic commission has accepted Wills’ rhal lenge and Dempsey has not gpen fit to accept It, a Dempsey-Oibhons match Is barred here automatically. The most natural spot, therefore, Is California, and In due time Gibbons will come forward aa the challenger there. Gibbons Marks Time. For severs 1 reasons, be cannot do so at this time. One of them Is that lie has not been made^fc, offer, as yet. Another Is that several bouts in prospect notably among which la his srb^^ld meeting with Gen* Tunney, and wants to harvest his eastern rrnp before turn lng to the west. Once he accept* or even negotiates publicly for s Dempsey shot. Gib bons will be placed on the Ineligible list here He Is fully aware of this fact, and Is willing to tak* the con sequence*—and the dollar* that go with them. Hrllrvnp W ins First Game.

The obvious difference Is that the little finger of Gene's right hand goes between the first and second fingers of his left. But his left thumb does not go Into the palm of his light hand as in tlie orthodox golf grip. Jlis light thumb crosses ttie shaft more than the usual golf grip. It Is worth noting that the force of the blow falls across his wrists in a wav which makes it impossible for them to yield much to It.

I "IHIW-IJSGGKU” SH \FT«I. WITHIN IIip last few weeks thousands of set* of golf cluhs liave been dragged from garret, closet and locker, and pressed into service at dub "open ings." In some cases tlii* ha* been like a renewal of acquaintanceship with old friends, while in many others Hie opening links performance lias been attended w till more or less chagrin, because the hickory shafts have heroine so warped that the clubs look "bow-legged." If a golfer walks to Hie first tee witli a mis shapen collection some "friend” is liable to ask where lie picked up "bow-legs.” Such an observation of course could not be made when a golfer uses steel-shafted clubs, for they do not warp. By the way, steel shafts are more numerous than ever in a majority of golf bags today. Recently an official of a company which handles mere golf cluba than any other concern in the United States stated that in fhecking up the sales a short time since it was found that 65 per cent of the cluhs sold were steel shafted. There are various explanations, the two outstanding ones being that steel shafts last longer, will stand up under harder usage and neglect, and aie not affected by weather condi tions.
