THREE OLD CAT"
Being Used BY Griffith's Hiehlanders
In Practice.

Atlanta, GA. March As novelty
in spring training. Manager Griffith of
the Highlanders Wednesday introduced
the old boyhood "three old cat" and
the PLAYERS had lots of fun. In this
game there are three batters, and
when one is put out the others change
positions until they gradually work
their way to the bat. Contrary to his
usual methods, Griffith has kept his
pitchers from working out their arms
at all until they have had a few days
work in the various positions which is
possible in the game of scrub
SO far not one of the pitchers has
warmed up with regular catcher. Mo-
riarty proved the champion hitter at
scrub, and it took them more than a
half hour to get him out. He made
seven successive hits, and Griffith, who
was playing left field, had to yell for
mercy.
The Highlanders are great favorites
here and full 200 people We're out to
see them practice, both morning and
afternoon
