Dallas. Tex, Feb. e7.-The Giants opened
the exhibition playing season here this at
ternoon with a defeat at the hands OF the
Dallas team of the Texas League by
score of IL to s.
This is the first time in his career that
MeGrsw has started off the year with
defeat at the hands of minor leaguers. AS
a mstter Of fact though, his team was
also made up Of minor leaguers who had
not played together before They tried
hard and kept up their ginger TO the last'
but tie Texans outlucked them in getting
balls INTO the rough ground, where they
could not be handled.
There were many times when McGraw
could have substituted good hitter for
one of the pitchers but he had not soul
on the bench, and the same men who
started the game had to finish IT. He al
ternated his two pitchers in the box and
in the outfeld, and one of the catchers
PLAYED at second base. 1t had been in
tended to play Mathewson on first, but
McGraw had forgotten about Matty not
playing ball on Sunday.
Lush the young outfelder, who comes
from Bridgeport and The Bronx, played
first base and did it remarkably we'll In
fact he was the star of the game so far
az New York was concerned. He played a
beautiful game at first, and at the bat he
ripped off four clean hits out of five times
up McGraw is immensely pleased with
this younsster because he gave evidence
Of having an abundance of nerve in the
pinches.
The Giants had chance to tie up the
score in the ninth inning. but with three
men on bases and three runs needed 70
sew up the game Shafer failed to get the
hit that he was looking for.
The grounds Were very rough, and good
fielding for either side was impossible.

Dallas Process Giant Killer
Plenty of Joy in "Mudville" After Trouncing
of M'Graw's Colts in Exhibition Game.

Dickson and Temple had to alternate in
right field, and several drives got by
Dickson that regular outfelder would
have got. In the box Dickson proved
himself to be pitcher of big league
calbre. He has a slow ball that worked
beautifully, and he is at all times cool.
Temple, who succeeded him in the box,
was suffering from a sore arm.
The Dallas fans enjoyed the defeat Of
the major ieaguers immensely. McGraw
played third base and they gave him a
good natured Gliding from the first inning
until the last. One of his misplays gave
the Texans two runs. He slipped in the
mud and fell, while the ball got away.
The fans had a lot of fun out OF il.
The Giants left here at 9 o'clock for
Marlin, where they will get back to their
regular work.

All the mower of the automobile clubs OF
New Jersey is being exerted TO obtain the
massage of the Edge bill. allowing non
resident motorists who are properly regis
tered in their home states to tour th9re
without further formality. The measure
nassed the House two weeks ago by
large majority and is now before tbs SEN
ate.
While the bill, which was introduced oy
Walter E. Edge of Atlantic city, mas not
vet been reported from committee In the
Senate. Senator Joseph s.. Ffelinghuysen,
who has consistently opposed the grant
ing residents OF other states the courte-
s,es which are accorded by them to New
Jersey tourists, has given notice that no
win opnose the effort to make the New
Jersey legislation in this respect UNIFORM
with PENNSYLVANIA, Massachusetts. Con-
,acticut Delaware and other Eastern
states which have recently revised their
automobile laws.
On Tuesday afternoon meeting OF the
representatives of the various motor clubs
which form the Associated Automobile
Clubs of New Jersey was held ut the New
ark automobile show. in the Essex Troop
Arn1orv. Decision was unanimous to back
the Edge BILL and as a consequence IN
fuence will be brought to bear from all
parts of the state.
It is especially important TO motorists OF
New Jersey that the bill be passed at this
time, as New York State is seriously con-
sjdering a measure which will be similar
TO that of Pennsylvania and Delaware In
making the touring privilege purely rec1p-
rocal-that is. granted only to residents OF
states which in turn allow New 1orA
motorists to tour without further license.

Thousands of American tourists who are
visiting Cuba at this season Of the year on
pleasure jaunts, to say nothing of capitalists
of all nationalities who are interested In
the development of the vast resources OF the
island are Immediately struck with the
splendid possibilities afforded there for the
automobile tourist.
Road building had been more or less a
negligible quantity for the many years of
Spanish dominion. but with the advent or
the American occupancy well defined and
comprehensive scheme was mapped out and
started whereby the island would have
network of good roads reaching out to hith-
erto practically inaccessible places.
This work. started under United States
army supervision. is going ahead slowly but
surely under the direction OF the Cubans, and
motorists keen to conquer and explore new
automobile territory. will have the satisfac-
ton in the not too fur distant future of be-
coming acquainted with the country so rich
ly endowed with natural advantages.
The early work of road making. mapping
out, etc, was done by United States army
officers with the aid of Royal Tourist car.
