New York, April 11.—A little more dabbing and brushing on of paint, some sweeping and gathering up of the leavings of stupendous loads of steel, concrete and wood ,and the Yankee stadium, great edifice of base ball, will be ready for the opening of the season on April 18. a bad club and because neither of the new owners was familiar with the workings of baseball, have turned out to be very smart gentlemen. Their new park, their great col lection of stars that make up the Yankees today, two times champion of the American league, represent a valuation of $3,000,000. Furthermore, the club considerably outdrew the Giants, world champions, last season, for it, they have a park of 70,000 capacity. When they bought the club, crowds of 3,000 to 4,000 were considered "big days” by the Yankees. And that was only eight years ago. In keeping with his "square shoot ing” policies, Frank Chance, manager of the Boston Ue owner, and the newspapers. Frazee told him to let go any play ers not good enough to wear Red Sox uniforms, but didn't say anything, so far as known, about new bolstering material of worth. It is pretty late : now. with tlie season only 11 days away, and the outlook is as dreary as : when big fogs come riov^n to Boston from the Nova Scotia banks. Half-Volley in Tennis Requires More Perfect Timing Than Any Other Stroke \ By VINCENT RICHARDS, National Indoor Single* Champion. I'nhpiwl Service Staff < orrcipondcnt. We hear much nowadays In the ten nis world about the half-volley. Many tennis critics are of the opinion that the future generation of tennis stars will depend a great deal on this valu able stroke. The half-volley might he termed the climax of tennis skill. In the terms of the average tennis fan. the half-volley Is nothing mora than an ordinary pickup. The half volley requires more per feet timing,' eyesight and racquet than any other stroke In the tennis game. The hall simply meets the ground and the face of the racquet at almost the same time, the hall bouncing off the ground onto the strings. The shot Is made with a stiff w rist short swing, very much on the order of a volley, only one does not use the fol low-through. Mostly Defensive Shot. The young tennis player who is Just learning the half-volley should remem- ! ber that this stroke Is essentially a de fensive shot. It should only be used as a last resort, when you are caught out of position by your opponent's shot. I could offer no better advice to the ambitious young player than to tell him never to half volley unless he Is trying to extricate himself from a dangerous positlop without retreat ing. To my way of thinking, the young player should never deliberate ly half-volley. Hut notwithstanding the shore statement there are certain players who are able to turn the half-volley Into a point-winner. Perhaps the greatest half-vollyer that the gama of lawn tennis has ever had, has been Richard Norris Williams. The popular Pick has achieved remarkable results with this stroke. He turns a defensive Into an aggressive attack with the re sult that he Is known as the wonder man with this shot. Advice to Beginner*. But liow many of us do rare to do the things that Williams does with the half volley? We have not the ten- ; nls genius that this former national ! champion and Davis cup star has and I we have not the same amount of dar ing either. In the first place the half-volley is the most risky shot in the tennis player's armor. The margin of safety, when executing. this stroke, is very small and its , chances of mishaps Is really number- j less. Therefore. I should advise the Junior starting out on his tennis career not to pay too mui h attention to the ex ecution of this difficult stroke. Play the ordinary orthodox tennis game at first and let men like Williams, Til den and Johnston use these genius strokes. They will come to you In time anyway, if you are playing the Kama seriously. Det into the position where you will not be forced to use the half- | volley. It simply means that you will j have to get closer to the net. In | ibis way you will eliminate the use of this difficult stroke and lessen the chances of your making errors.

Gmadfanltatfic — ...1 Eddie ROUSH, the Cincinnati player who demands half the state of Ohio before signing a Red contract. Is about to Jump to independent baseball. Yesterday the officials of the Cin cinnati club held a meeting. Roush was present and Informed the moguls that he wanted a three-year contract and $16,000 a year to appear In a Red uniform. Did the Red officials consent to give Roush his demands? They did not. They told Roush he could have a one-year contract and 15 grand a year. Eddie refused to sign and he remains a holdout. If Roush doesn't come to terms, and It looks as if he won't, George Harper, former Oklahoma City play er, may get a chance to fill Roush's shoes. Harper got in the game with the Reds a little last year and show ed up pretty good, enough to show the Cincinnati club that he was keep- ' ing on the roster. • • • ROi.SH may deride to play in dependent baseball this year, says a scribe bark in Cincin nati. It's a cinch that is he does decide to jump organized ball, Koush will not make anywhere near 315,000 a year. Baseball in dependence isn’t what it is crack- i ed up to be. Remember George Hale, catcher for the Omaha club in 1920? George jumped to semi-pro ball be cause he was refused a boost in salary. Well, Hale is back in or ganized baseball and he's with the Omaha club. George will tell you that baseball Independence isn’t what's it is supposed to be. • • • JUST at the present time Jess Willard is attracting about as much attention from sportdom as any other athlete, or near athlete. Big Jess, as everyone knows, Is trying to "come back.” He says It's the glory he wants; not money. Wil lard Is saJfl to have money he re ceived from his oil leases and farm lands. Recently a report blew out of Wil lard’s training carnp that Jess had hurt his arrn so badly that he would not be able to fight Floyd Johnson In May. Ray Archer, manager, and Willard raved about It and you can’t blame ’em.
