ONINO i,:
Despite the fact that Oa.pt. Huston
is Eupposed to have left New York
for Cincinnati, Toledo and Detroit, it
was learned today that his first stop
westward will be Cleveland, where he
will make an effort to sign Roger
Perkir.paufih, who is not satisfied with
the contract Minager Muggins sent
him recently.
Because the prospective purchaser
of the Newark International League
club cannot be guaranteed against
loss from legal action, it isn't likely
that he will take over that franchise,
so Jim Price, its present president,
will in all probability be forced to
look around some more for some
one who will relieve him of the club.
Dave Henry, the former Browr.
University baseball and football star
who succumbed to an attack of pneu
monia recently, is well known to fans
on the Eastern League circuit, for
Dave played with the Hartford
gregation for a few -weeks his last
days in organized baseball. After
leaving Brown, Dave, who was some
pitcher while on the Brunonian nine,
was taken over by the Pirates in
1914. At that time Danny O'Xeil
was managing the Hartford team for
Clarkin. Dan and Owper Barney
and when Barney decided to let Dave
go he sent him to Hartford, but tho
pitcher remained there only a few
weeks.
