style of play to be put up by the Windy
City team this season:
Under Manager Burns the Colts will
change their style of play. Under Arson
they always played a safe, waiting game
Under Tom they will play an aggressive,
snappy game, taking all chances where
there is point to be gained. Team work
Will be Burns watchword, and the player
that cannot subordinate self to team work
will be at discount in the esteem and es-
timation Of his manager. Team work is
what wins games, and Burns is going TO
win all the games that can be had If clear
headed ball playing will do it. Matte Kill
roy will lead off the batting order, as he is
sure hitter and also a very fast man on
his feet. He will be the very man to en-
courage the men to follow in his work on
the base lines. for he will prove to be one
of the best base runners in the club Ever
lit, for the same reason, will have first
chance to demonstrate his ability to fill
the void at first caused by Anson's retire
ment
Base running will be made feature of
the Colts training and playing this year.
Last season many games were worse than
= thrown away by stupidity that a school
boy would not be guilty Of Burns intends
to see that that is corrected, and he has
settled on Kilroy to act as demonstrator,

any of them. There is nothing in it
for them to sign before the day on
which they are ordered to report, and
all this talk about holding out doesn't
amount to shucks.
i've got five of them, anyway" add
ed Comiskey with a smile, and I'm
good for a game or two myself, and
then there's the boy; he could play in
the outfield. That would make seven,
and l could surely pick up an amateur
or two
If the hold-outs came back into the
fold, as Comiskey expects, the team
will begin practice with the following:
Catchers-spies. Miller, Geier.
Pitchers-Cross, Mullane, Phyle, Denzer
McGnl, Fricken.
First Base-Gasscock.
Second Base-Glenalvin, Geier, Hollings-
worth.
Third Base-Giuen.
ShOrtstop-Shugart.
Fielders-Burke, George, Preston, Miller,
Geier.
Utility n-Hollingsworth, Preston Nyce.
All of the above will not of course,
be carried through the season. Commy
will weed them out and carry just a
sufficient number to win the pennant
so he says.
Manager Allen, of the indianapolis
team, expects 20 get his players to-
gether tomorrow.
Last week he sent spOrtation to
all of them, including those who have
not yet signed, and asked them to re-
port tomorrow.
President Colt has declined to discuss
the salary question by letter with any
of his players. He says he has offered
the men all that he can and remain
within the salary limit, and If they
have anything more to say they can
go to Indianapolis and talk it over.
Phillips and Stewart, two of the big
five who are holding out, have little
cause to complain of the salary offered
them. Foreman and Kahoe have suf-
fered more under the new limit than
any of the other players, and, if there
is any case whatever for complaint
they have it.

that they will quickly pick up many
