A great number of the eastern
baseball players are drafted from
the western leagues. There Is
hardly an eastern team without sew
eral western players. On many
teams they are in the majority.
This seems a remarkable state
ment, but nevertheless it is true.
The data for all the eastern teams
for the coming season Is not in the
hands of The Press, but the st.
Louis American team will be taken
as an example.
For pitchers In the st. Louis team
this year Manager McCloskey has
secured six. OF the six three are
western players. They are McFar-
land, who was with Boise; Theil-
man, who played with Los Angeles
and Portland, and Thompson, of the
old Helena and Boise teams. Ben
nett, Seattles old players, is book
ed for second base; Dunleavy, of
the Butte and one of the California
teams, Is booked for left field;
Houtz Of Butte and James Of Seat
tie are also there.
o o o
Poor old Lou Nordyke did not
make good last year in the east on
the first bag. He may be seen here
or in some other western team this
year. Word comes from Dallas,
Texas, that Lou will not play first
this year, but will be replaced by
, Tom Jones.
Lou has been seen in nearly
every team on the Pacific coast,
and at one time was the pride and
envy Of the Spokane ball players.
Lou also made a hit with the girls.
He was drafted to the Dallas team
to hold down the first bag. Now
reports say Lou may be placed on
the bench or released All would
like to see Lou return to Spokane
and make good.

Cuticura Soap and Ointment on him
daily, his eczema left him, his hair
grew again, and neither he nor myself
have had any eczema since.
As to his own case, Mr.. Barnett says:

itching, breaking out on my face for
more than year. | took treatment
from physicians for several months,

advised to try Cuticura. | took
six bottles Of Cuticura Rcsolvcnt, and
used Cuticura Soap and Ointment
