"Cowboy" Padgett, Colorado wel
terweight tighter, who meets Cham
pion Jack Britton here on Friday,
May 5, expects to toughen his hands
by chopping a couple cords of wood
each day.
Kay Alvis, boss of the western
cowpuncher, says that when it conies
to chopping wood the "Cowboy" has
it all over Ociie luncy, who it will
be remembered, chopped a cord of
wood and then won the light heavy
weight fistic title 'from "Battling
Lcvinsky.
The Cowboy wants a pile .of
wood to chop. Alvis' can be reached
at the santorcl, so it you have a
young forest or a dozen cords of
wood you want chopped get in touch
with Padgett's manager.
' But, after all, there isn't much use.
for cord wood m the summer time.
Padgett might go out to one of
Omaha's monument companies and
juggle tomb stone9 around, thereby
hardening his hands.
" News Item .
Johnny Lee is thinking .serious
ly of returning to the squared
arena for HSlWf"Tjmbat..
Fred Meyers, Johnny's manager,
has a couple of houses he wants
moved so expects to make good
use of his heavyweight charge.
Tlje. St Joseph Saints, who at this
particular time are .leading the West
ern league,; have an oddity in the
form of an ambidextrous pitcher. The
gentleman with ; that distinction is
Drew Rader, youngster obtained for
seasoning from - the Pittsburgh Pir
ates. ' . ;- -.-' '. ;..--'"
While Rader is rated as a left
hander and pitched from the south
side in a recent game, yet it is said
he slings a wicked ball with his other
paw.'' '
Rader might try his ambidextrous
stuff, in a game to good advantage,
alternating from one side to the oth
er,xdcpending on which side the
batteVswings from. It frould cer
tainly give the fans something to
observe and -chatter about. . '
Perhaps.. Raderv might turn out to
be another Dick Merriwell. ,' i;
While on the subject of baseball
it might be well to say that the
Tulsk Oilers have closed a ' deal
with: the St. Louis Browns for
Outfielder Lyman Lamb. Lamb is
a graduate of the Western league
and was a member of the Joplin
; team before being sold to the
Mound City-club.;-
Jack Lelivelt, manager of Tulsa,
is puzzled. He hasn't made up his
mind where to play Lamb. f
Why not turn the Lamb out
in the rasture. Jack? - ' .
Word was received in Omaha last
night' that H. D., Cates, owner of a
large stable of horses.' will ship his
string to the Ak-Sar-Ben track.
In the Cates stable are Veteran,
Shortstop, Kathcrine Rankin. ThrilLs,
Lobelia and others. They havejjecn
racing at Tijuana this seasan.
The Ak-Sar-Ben annual running
race meeting will be held Jane 3 to

Several of the fastest stables at
Tijuana, Havana and Kentucky will

Sir Arthur Conan Doy-ie, creator
of Sherlock Holmes and 'general
authority on things supernatural, wit
nessed a big league game at the Polo
grounds last week.
In commenting on the game. Sir
Arthur says: .
"Competition is undoubtedly much
more intense in this country and that
is probably why in the various sports
you concentrate to an extent that is
unknown to us. In England we

game than for victory."
No doubt the English play for
victory but seldom gain it when
competing against Yank athletes.
Fred Mitchell, manager of the
Boston Braces, is credited with some
interesting remarks on umpires. It
is the tiijje-honored belief that um
pires and ball- players are kept from
each othef's throats only by the
most strenuous efforts, but there is
one time, says Mitchell, when the
big league "ump" is welcomed. That
is on the spring training trip. The
"ump" is an aid to the players.
Mitchell is quoted by Burt Whit
man in Boston as saying that there
ought to be an ironglad rule making
it necessary for big league teams to
have big league umpires in the
south every spring for training pur
poses. According to Mitchell, it is
a great thing for the umpires be
cause the "ump," after the winter
vacation, needs the practice'to get
vision adjusted once more to the
task of calling balls and strikes.
