OFFERS BUT $1, ,25O NEW HAVEN VICTOR
Meriden Fans Slightly Consider the Norwich Baseball
 Team.
THEY MAY BE SHY OF CASH
Sale of Franchise and Players to be Considered at the League
 Meeting.

Either the Meriien baseball fans are short of cash or else they rate the Rosebuds pretty cheaply, for according to stories circulated in Norwich, Meri- den offer s1. 25O for the State league team. Whether Meriden will procure Ithe Norwich team or not will be de- cided at the Connecticut league meet ing which is to be held in this city Fri day afternoon
 The Norwich Bulletin tells the fol- lowing story about the Norwich Meri- den project:
 "The sum of a little more than s1. .25o is offered by the Meriden base ball people for the Norwich franchise and team intact, with the exception of Pitcher Ira Plank, who has been drafted by the New York Americans. This is the substance of @ letter re- lceived by President Davenport Satur day morning from Chairman E. B. Whitney of. the special Meriden com mittee appointed to negotiate for the purchase of the Norwich team. As the price asked by the Norwich men was S25oo and they have no intention of selling out at a sacrifice, Mir Daven- port dispatched letter to Meriden in the afternoon, in which he gave the Silver City committee to understand that there was nothing doing at the price they offered.
 "Con Danaher is reported to be holding the New Haven franchise at s10.000, and it was considered by the Norwich owners that theirs ought to he worth at least ne-quarter as much. In this opinion. which made their price s2. 800 the league directors con- cured. and this amount would no more than pay them for the time and trouble they have been to in building up the team, to say nothing of the sell ing value of some of the men on it. Pastor represents $50 in cash paid 10 a California club. there was S20o in- tvoIved in the deal that brought Soffel here. Bridges and Accorsini make a
 nair of Catchers that many a team would give up good money for, and Cy
 Perkins would be no drug on the
 market if he were offered for sale
 These five men could probably be sold
 for as much as the Meriden offer and leave the franchise rights and a clever line of pitchers and other players Istiu to dispose of. These were some of the points made plain in Mir Dav- exports letter. which win give the Meriden people something to think ; over

BIGLOW HEAD COACH Captain Burch Announces Men to Train Winning
 Team.
TAD JONES THE ASSISTANT
Three Good Leaders and the Best of Material to Work
 With.

Captain Robbie Burch. who was re- gently elected to lead Yale's gridiron warriors to victory next fall. last night announced the appointment of this years captain, L. H, Biglow 3d. as head coach for the coming year with Tad Jones as his assistant and coach for tho backfield
 Both Biglow and Jones are all American players, respectively at right tackle and quarterback Each has been on the eleven for three years and understand every department of the game
 Captain Biglow came to Yale from Lawrencevtlle academy His home Is in Montclair. N J. Tad Jones pre- pared at Exeter. where he first be- came acquainted with Burch. Tad's home is in Excello, o.
 Together Biglow and Jones will make the finest coaching force which has graced the Yale gridiron in years, Beth are players in a class by them selves in their respective positions and both have proved themselves leaders Of men
 Biglow will have good material to work with in the line positions In spite of wild statements disseminated through the press about Burch play ing quarterback, he will be found in his old position at right end. which he has won by hard and skillful playing before his injuries Burch is of all- American timber and his popularity with the members of the team as well as his ability as leader should alone guarantee winning team
 Brihes will probably occupy Big lows position at right tackle. He is a magnificent defensive player and a good tackler. His long experience will make him very valuable in the post tion. Goebel will be another exper- fenced man, playing in his old position at right guard Cooney will probably have the first try for center and Hyde of this years freshman team will be first substitute Andrus will be the left guard and his boon companion, Hobbs captain of Andover two years l ago, will be at left tackle. Logan and Tony Haines will fight for the posi- tion of left end IL will be seen that ] every member of the line will be ex- perienced. It was Biglow practically alone who developed the Yale line this year, and with material fully as good the line next fall should be stone wall.
 The position of quarterback offers tn, greatest difficulty and Captain Burch |, to be congratulated in having so goot coach as Tad Jones Hopkins of thi, falls freshman eleven will have tn, call for the position. The other canjl dates who will be given an opportunit, to hold the important position are Phil bin, Wheaton and Kllpatrick. The l., x named played quarterback on Ardoye for awhile.
 Fred Murphy will be at right half back Fred Daley, Andovers captai, after Hobbs, who was disoualifed thi year, will be one of the candidates fo the other halfback position with Phil bin, Wheaton and Fitzpatrick. Coy. tn, star of the Princeton game last fall holds the other backfield position with out doubt
 Spring practice will commence sever al weeks hence. and the work of coacl Jones, because of his baseball activitie. will consist mainly in looking Ill l uuarterbacks
