rive at the place where they are in
structed to report to the manager.
During the training period, however,
they are supposed to obey the team
manager in matters pertaining to their
department. They are responsible to
him for their time, and during the time
they are not at practice they are ex-
pected to conduct themselves the same
as in midseason. Lohg trips are no
longer regarded as out of the ordinary.
Next spring team in each league will
make the longest trips ever undertaken
as training venture.
Two Long Trips.
The Giants will get together in Chi
cago late in February and go to Los
Angeles. Cal. After training there two
weeks they will work their way east,
playing the st. Louis Americans at San
Antonio, Tex, and the Philadelphia
Athletics at New Orleans, besides ap-
pearing in several southern cities.
The White Sox of Chicago, the
worlds champions, will do their spring
training in the City of Mexico. This
is the first time team has ever pre-
pared for the season on other than
United States soil.
The mileage of the trips undertaken
by the New York and Chicago teams
will be something enormous when it is
considered that each party will consist
of about thirty-five persons. Several
of the players will be accompanied by
their wives
The longest training trips of recent
years were the two California jaunts
of the Chicago Nationals in 1904 and
1905.
