Water Lounger Hopefuls Face Draft in Valley League
Mississippi Valley League players await a seven day draft amid 1927 class D moves. Waterloo boasts no suitors yet, but past drafts show surprises. Manager Dixon may coach or be sought. $500 draft price applies for moves to class C. Valley league finances hit new highs with $34,000 in talent sales in 1926 and a solid $10,000 reserve for rainy days as Cedar Rapids hosts November meetings.

Blue Substituted for Greb on Legion's December Card
Blue is slated to appear on the American Legion Becker-Chapman program, with Gail Blue likely taking Greb's place in December. He has fought 8 times here, losing only once locally, and seven of his last nine wins came by knockout. Negotiations are underway for December showings with Red Mason handling Greb’s side, but a Circle accident delays certainty. The boxing world mourns the passing of Pittsburgh Windmill Groh, who ends a long career after 14 years of fighting, with a 160 pound class record and the 1923 title victory over Johnny Wilson.
