baseball talk in this city, and the pros

basis this season.
A meeting OF the officials Of the Hagers-

The same sentiment prevails in the

adopted. II is believed that baseball can

As the appointed time for reporting ap-
prOaches. the Nationals are rushing to
cover one by one. Yesterday President
Tom Noyes. Of the Washington club. re-
ceived Pitcher Roy Witherup's signed
contract accompanied by q long letter.
in which the big twirler states that he
is all ready to join the Hot Springs col
ony, and believes that the mud baths
will do him a world of good.
Last night a similar letter came from
Doc Reisling, another one OF the local
pitchers. The dentist will leave from his
home in Ohio Wednesday night.
George Browne and Wild Conroy have
also notified the Nationals boss that they
are ready to start for the Springs. and
it is expected that by Friday the entire
Washington crowd will be on hand for
the boiling out process. These men will
remain at Hot Springs until March s.
when they have been ordered to report
in Norfolk for the real early season

The two members Of the Nationals who
make Washington their homes, Tom
Crooks and Bill Rapp. together with Wal
ter Warren, the manager of the Frank
fort (Ixy) club. and others, have already
started in to do light work In the National
Guard gymnasium, where they can be
seen almost every afternoon playing hand
ball and limbering up throwing arms.

Rapp is going to make a big name for
himself in the American League this sea-

him oftener than Cantillon did Blanken-

The Southeast lads were too fast for
the Maryland boys all through the game.
The contest had barely started before the
association lads scored their first point,
and did not stop until they totaled up
an even 50 TO the Gathersburg's g. The
winners teamwork and accurate goal
shooting was the feature OF the game,
while the Gathersburg bunch were badly
outclassed from start to finish, and had
better learn how TO play the game before
they attempt to invade the District again.
