HIGH BUSY
Local High Schoog Players Pre-.
pare Ior Baseball Season.

Prospects for winning baseball team
at Central high school are very bright.
About half of last years team will be
back and there are a great many boys in
the school who have played on such teams
as the Crocus Hills. the Laurels and the
st. Anthony Park teams.
Last years team did not prove to be a
winner. The only game they won was
that with Crystal Lake, while they were
defeated by the Cleveland, Mechanic
Arts and Minneapolis high school teams.
Central has not elected captain for this
years team, but Prof. L. N. Sickles has
been elected coach and Prof Vaudeville
manager. The team has a hard schedule
before it, AS it will play all the st. Paul
and Minneapolis high schools, the local
colleges and four or five out-of- town
teams.
The Mechanic Arts has been coming
forward in the baseball line in the last
couple of years. Up to two years ago
they had played Central every year, but
had gone down to defeat each time but
in 1901 they defeated Central by a score
of - to and repeated the trick last
year. Five of last years stars are back
and there is plenty of new material to
select from. Chester Gaskell will man
age the team.
The Cleveland high has entered a team
in the Northwestern InterschoHstG asso-
citation and expects to make gosd this
year. Cleveland had a first class team
last year, but did not play many out of
town teams.

CHAMPION TO BOWL
MiIwaukee's Crack Bowler De.
Cides to Go to Cleveland.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Feb. $50 much
pressure has been brought to bear upon
Daniel A. Jones, the national bowling
champion, by Milwaukee bowlers, that he
mas promised to go to Cleveland next
week TO compete in the national tourna-
nlent provided his games will be changed
from early in the week until Thursday
and Friday.
Otto Best manager of the Olympics,
who are going to Cleveland for the five
man series, yesterday sent a telegram
I to Secretary Steffens at Cleveland ask
ing him to change the time of the Olym-
pic games from Monday to Thursday and
the individual series Of Jones and Bogart
from Tuesday until Friday. If the Cleve-
land tournament committee decides to
postpone the game as requested, Mil
waukee's champion will be a competitor
in the national championships
Unless the changes are complied with,
the Olympics may not be able to go to
Cleveland. Peter Bogart, another mem
Der of the team, will also be unable to
go to Cleveland until late in the week,
owing to unexpected business engage
ments.
Champion Jones has come in for con-
siderable criticism from local bowlers
since his decision to remain away from
the Cleveland tourney. The bowlers ar
que that a national champion should go
to the tourney to defend his title, and
they are greatly displeased with his ac-
lions. Several members of the OIym-
pics of the American league went so far
as to say that If Jones did not go to
Cleveland they would resign from the
team and refuse to again bowl with Jones.
William J. Kenna, of Chicago, who is
a candidate for secretary of the A. B. c.,
called upon Mr.. Jones yesterday and adj
vised him to go to Cleveland, as it would
disappoint the bowlers throughout the
country should he remain away.

RYAN IN NO HURRY
TO TAKE ON O'BR|FN
Middleweight Champion VIII
Not Accept Fort Erie
Clubs Offer.

CHICAGO. Feb. 4.-Tommy RYAN. the
acknowledged middleweight champion OF
America, will not accept the Fort Erie
clubs proposition Of $4,000 to fight Jack
O'Brien on March II. When informed OF
clubs offer, Ryan said: Il announced sew
eral days ago that my health would not
permit my engaging in a championship
fight for several months. L was not at
my best when l met OBrien at Philadel-
phia, and it is impossible to get into con
dition to do myself Justice on the date
made by the Fort Erie club. O'Brien talks
some of betting $4,000 that he can defeat
me in long fight. That Is more than I
care to bet, but when we enter the ring he
will have no trouble getting on all the
money ne cares to bet"
Tommy Is taking daily exercise, and
there is no doubt should he find himself
rounding to, he may give the proposition
more serious consideration.

BOSTON TEAM UGLY
Dineen Claims Players Object
to Salary Cuts.

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Feb 4-The Bos-
ton league owners assert that all is har-
mony between them and their players,
but Dineen offers a fat denial to this
statement He says only three of the
teams players have signed for 1904 and
that an open revolt exists among the
other members, all because of salary dis
putes.
Jimmy Collins, of Buffalo, manager for
the Bostons, was summoned to that city
week ago for a conference with the
Hub magnates on the Dineen matter. He
was expected to stop off at Syracuse on
the return trip to Buffalo and to make
known the result of his interview. Col
Inns, however, rolled through to the Bison
City without meeting the Syracuse twirl-
er This incident has led Dineen to be-
Iieve that his services are not wanted in
Boston and has caused his determination

rangement with favor The Pacific Coast
league has taken but few players from
the National or American leagues, and
if they continue as outlaws the minor
leagues will be the chief sufferers. If the
Pacific coasters are granted the priv
ilege of draft from the class "A'' leagues,
they simply enlarge the market for re-
leases. They will pay for players they
are now getting for nothing. The limit
will not be enlarged and no class IA
club can lose more than two players by
draft. That last decision of the national
commission, founded upon the question
raised by the Cleveland club, was, to my
handed down, and it was to the advan-
tage of the class "A' clubs who have
the preference in the choice of players
drafted from other clubs of the lower
classes who fail in the majors. / can see
no reason for the failure of the mission
of Messrs. Hart, Johnson and Hanlon

National association should fail to in
dorse their action"
