MILLEDGEvILLE, March 23.-New-
ark won the first real practise game of
the season Yesterday from the High
landers by a score of 8 to 6. 5Joe Me
Ginnity and Jack Frill were Instrument
tai in bringing about the defeat of the
Hilltopper team. Manager Stallings
was real anxious to win the game, but
bowed gracefully to the superior prov"
ess of the Tiger squad. The reason for
McGinnity going into the box and work
ing so hard in the early innings Is said
to be due to the fact that he wished to
make an impression upon the Newark
populsce. IF this game is going to be
won we may as we'll win it, said Joe
to Jack Frill. just before the two
started to warm up
For five innings the work of McGin-
nifty was of that variety which has
made him one of the most famous char
acters in baseball. but after he had the
game sewed up, sent over the straight
ones, which resulted in drives for the
circuit by Ray Demmitt and Kid Elber-
field. 1t was a real classy diamond cor
test, many games being played in mid
season which would not arouse any
more enthusiasm. There was a deal OF
Joking among the players before the
game, and Willie Keeler told McGinnity
that he did not have anything that he
cid not know. Willie hits in the same
faultless M but only succeeded in
garnerlng one safety during the after
noon.
Jack Frilrs work would indicate that
he is to be among the star pitchers of
the Eastern League this season. After
Frill relieved McGinnity there was no
danger of the Highlanders getting to
the score board with any degree of fire.

allowed, n it is believed that he might
have prevented this lone tally being

Sta1lings Wants Game.
Stallings is so anxious to win the
game today that Doc Newton said last
night that he had been instructed to
go in and pitch you head off. We
want this game Newton will prob
ably be relieved by Quinn. the Vir-
ginia League twirler, who won four
teen games and tied two last season
with the pennant-winning Richmond
team. This boy Quinn is said to. be
one OF the coming twirling stars, and
the Tigers will ave to go some in
order to get the supply of base hits
which are needed. Jack Kleinow will
do the backstopping for the Highland
ers. Kleinow is i'm good condition and
throwing to bases better than he did
in games last season.
Tigers & Good Form.
The Tigers are in fine fettle, and can
be depended Upon to play the Sailing
ties to a standstill today. . The train
ing season at Milledgeville has been
very good thus far, the weather being
better than a majority %of'major league
teams who are In training have OK
perienced.
Mi~1iedRevi1Ic Tribute.
Citizens Of Milledgeviile have taken great
interest In the players and believe that the
team is to win the Eastern League pennant,
although Il must be acknowledged that they
do not know the quality of Eastern League
baseball. A meeting of the most prominent
residents of the city will he held on Thurs
day night and the Tigers have been invited
to be present.. so that they may be told
that they have made an excellent impress
sion in Milledgeville and invited to return
at any time. 1t is. probable that both
Wolverton and McGinnity will deliver brief
speeches. although neither Joe nor his lieu
tenant care to pose as orators.
Homeward Journey.
The players will leave here for Augusta
on Saturday morning, aud then will COM
mence the homeward journey. IT the team

baseball dementia, but it is a fact that the
Newark players believe that they are mem

that the Highlanders are an American
League club.
Schedule Not Pleasing.
The schedule adopted by the Eastern
League moguls comes In for a lot of dis-
sc,lssion among the players here and the
majority opinion seems to be that the Tigers
have at least received no more than nm
even break. There are many long jumps,
which, to the. casual fans, do not seem
much, but to the player means just so much
added discomfort. 1t is no fun to play a
Saturday game In Montreal and then rush
ing for a train jump to Newark for a Sum
day doubleIheader. However, as the boys
say, 1t is not up to them to question why.
