iations, he viii be entitled TO a $1,000
bonus at the end of the baseball season
next fall. and If he sticks to the rules
of the matrimonial league he will guarS
antee himself a happy home. This base
ball sum of bonus as well as this matri-
monial summum bonCm, is contingent on
one thing only-that 'Rube" hold on

yesterday afternoon, but only got as far

After attending church yesterday morn
ing. the Nationals spent a quiet day In
their various hotels, meeting and visit
ing with friends. wondering what the
weather would be Monday. and taking
turns calling on George Mcbride, who is
still confined to HIS bed at the Dewey.
Mcbride was feeling much better last
night, and hoped that the doctor would
let him get on his pins to-daE He is
getting the best Of care. and the boys
help him pass the time away by spin
ming yarns, utterlng such cheerful chirps
as We're glad you aren't going TO die
until the season is over. for we need you
at shortstop," sc.
The majority of the men are living at
2 the Dewey, where at present Bob Groom
and Doc Gessler seem to be the cyno-
sure of all eyes. Gessler wears a diff
ferent suit of clothes evesy day. and
Groom's long suit is vocal solos. He is
always on hand when il comes time 10

other classical stuff.
Manager McAleer and Mrs. McAleer
are also stopping at the Dewey. Man
ager Jim has a pleasant word for every
body. and is always surrounded by his
henchmen. friends, and hotel guests.
A sample of McAleer's devotion to his
players was shown the writer last Thurs
DAY night, when word came to him that
George Mcbride was suffering great pain
and wanted TO have a doctor summoned.
The distress call came about s o'clock.
McAleer had a theater engagement but
promptly broke 1t. and not only called a
doctor. but sent for a specialist, and sat
by McBride's bedside until nearly mid
night when a trained nurse arrived,
Little incidents like these help make a
manager solid with his players. and he
is building up a spirit of cOmradeship

the club is pulling for Manager McAleer
His hopes and ambitions are theirs. and

Hon. Fred NJ. Warner. governor of
Michigan. State that is the banner one
in motor car manufacture. has accepted
an invitation to speak at the banquet of
the Association of Licensed Automobile
Manufacturers, TO be held at the Hotel
Astor, New York, April Z, 1870
Hereafter when industrial experts make
estimates on what the motor car indus
try means to the country they will be
forced 20 take into consideration an en-
tIrely new factor-that of year-around
employment Of the workman Almost
since the first days of motor car manu-
featuring in this country the majority OF
the workmen In the various factories
have had to lay off during a part of the
summer while work on new models was
being completed.
The position now appears to have been
reached. however. where steady employ
ment can be guaranteed.
With Mayor William Davis acting as
one of the officials. a nOnstop run of sixty
six hours was recently completed by an
automobile in the garage of Hugh II.
Lewis, OF Fort Worth. Texas. The motor
car was an ls-horsepower Franklin
touring car. and the continuous run OF
its engine was in charge of c. S. (Clean
Scorel Carris, who won his sobriquet by
driving a FrsnklinISmotor car through
many contests with perfect score.
Over $4,000 pieces Of hrst-class mall

Georgetown plays Trinity to-day, La
fayette on Wednesday. and meets the
Catholic University Saturday. The play
ers and students are rather discouraged
at the showing Of the team this year.
and share the opinion of the Georgetown
coach that the best thing 10 do is to
try out some of - the youngsters this
season and prepare for a corking good
nine for next summer. Flannery gave
evidence In the first game against Penn
sylvania that ne was a good man With
the stuff needed TO make good If only
worked enough to scra9e of the green
edges, and the tall one Will be pitched
several times a week to fit him for vet
eran service in 1911.
With the Easter week past. Georgetown
should win at least two Of the three
games scheduled this week, as the team
will have an opportunity TO rest between
the battles. Gray's arm Is gone for the
year. and Balzer is not in the best of spn-
dition. but with Baizer. O'Connor and
Flannery, the Blue and Gray should be
able TO fight the rest of, the schedule
out with at least an even chance OF
taking most OF the remaining games
That hard luck comes in punches is
often illustrated. Before the season open
ed II was thought that with Gray and
Menefee. the HiIltoppers would Ihave a
star battery, but It was not long before
Gray's wing went back on him and son
after this Menefee sustained an injury
that has kept him out of the last four
or FIVE games and will make it impossible
foEhim to work for at least week This
Is enough to upset almost any team, and
all Of the trouble came at a time when
Georgetown needed its best players in
harness.

Orange was a surprise to the Yale ad-
mirers- "Old Eli probably expected an
easy victory and was fooled
The proposition to bring some Of the
big college teams here for a Series of
games during Easter week each year has
not made a hit with the powers that
be in athletics at Georgetown. This years
nine at Georgetown has been poor one.
but it proves the exception to the rule
and it is safe to say that next spring
will find the Blue and Gray with a strong
team. Georgetown is entitled to support
when it plays good baseball and the stu
dents feel that the action of Cornell and
Yale in playing at American League
Park here while Georgetown was playing
on the hilltop. was, in way. a breach
OF courtesy.
It commences to look like the out of
town college teams were just beginning
to realize what, real good ball town
Washington is and that they are after
some of the picking that belongs by right
to the local college To the average
baseball fan, however. the college series
at the park during Easter week, pro-
vided it can be arranged as planned for
next spring, will be a welcome addition
TO the calendar of sporting events There
is no doubt that this city could sup
port both series of games. but the
question is as to whether the sentiment
at Georgetown is to be ignored.
