Said the indefatigable Jen- nngs recently: Just watch my boys when they hit their stride. ThereIl be To st pping them at all. We lilve the batters and our pitching staff is as good as if not better than ever, so there you are.'
 Manager Hughie Duffy of the White Sox is not near so much disappointed as many fans surmise. When Duffy took charge of the Chicago team he was given a green bunch of ball play CTS and no man in the business real iZed what task Duffy had undertaken better than Comiskey. At that Duffy has brought to light the fact that the White Sox will be as speedy an aggre- gation as there is in the league when they gain a little more experience.
 Jimmy McAleer is pleased with his new berth at Washington and shows it by his actions. The Senators are more formidable organization this sea- son than ever before, even though Johnson and the rest of the pitching staff are not doing very we'll. We'll posted sporting writers say they will hcld themselves up on their batting.

 Waivers have been asked and re- ceived by the Cincinnati club on Pitch CTS Castleton and Cantwell, and they will be sent-to class A clubs as soon as reasonable offers are made for them.
 Willie Keeler has at last decided that the Nationatleague pace is not too fast for him and signed a contract with the Giants. Wee Willie will go west with the McGrawites, but does not know when he will be assigned to a regular position on the team.
 Miller Huggtns is well pleased with his new berth in St. Louis. He says that Bresnahan has the liking and con- fdenee- of all his players. and he thinks that the team will play some good ball as sooH as the veteran pitchers get to working up to their true form.
 Pitcher Cantwell of Cincinnati has designed for use on cold or rainy days a special rubber glove for his pitching hand. He says this glove will keep out all cold and wet and at the same time not interfere in the least with the pitching ability of the twirler.
 Manager Fred Clarke is quoted as saying of young Vincent Campbell: gHe is one of the fastest have seen in several years. I have been hunting a man to take my place and Campbell looks like the boy for the job. He has me beaten now, but I am not ready to quit"
 It is declared authoritatively that Fred Penney will probably be carried throughout the season, even if he never rounds into shape to play first base for the Giants. He has proved an excel lent coacher for third base; in fact. as good as Duke" Farrell of the Yankees last year."
 Jim McAleer. manager of the Wash ingtons, has joined the Don't Worry club. He does not expect to be able to land the Senators any higher than fifth, and says they won't be near that position unless Dolly" Gray and Bob Groom show some Walter Johnson stun.

Ball Players Libe High

Tt is surprising" said an old timer one day recently, "how many men leave the big league broke. I know of men with good habits, making a salary of S4,OOo, who play in the big league for years. and when they get through they will have a dollar. A man getting that much money should quit the big league with at least s25. .OOO after ten years of service if he is at all careful and works in the winter.
 Tn fact, he can do better than that, but hundreds have failed to save their coin. Ball players think they have to live in a $4-a-day hotel in the summer and winter, when they can get board for $6 a week which is about as good When they were working at trades they did not pay s4 a day, why do it when playing ball? But that is the amount of sense many players have" He was talking from experience, having been a big leaguer of years experience.

American League
 Pennanf Race

With the race a month and a half old American league managers are bat ting just as valiantly day as when encing the bangs Of defeat while oth- CTS are enjoying the pride of having a winning aggregation. However, wheth- CT winning or losing, the American leaguers are showing the same spirit which characterized their efforts in the past, and while the race is somewhat one sided at present, baseball critics generally are of the opinion that at least three teams will be fighting for the flag during the last week of the season.
 Bancroft B. Johnson, the man at the helm of this wonderful organization, is a leader in every sense Of the word and deserving of much coInclendation. He is heady, versatile and capable of holding such high office as the pres idency of the American league
 President Johnson, discussing the prospects for the sel .on. had this fo say: "I much prefer t1 discuss the American league for 1910 to attempt ing To predict the result or it's pennant race as whole, or to cypress an opin- ion as to the positi)a of any of it's teams a t any stage uf the race Every entrant has elements of strength that entitle il to consideration.
 T am so impressed by these reports from managers and club owners that l am convinced that the struggle for first place will be veil sustained with the issue a matter of speculation. I will be surprised if there are not four or more formidable candidates for the championship from midseason to the close of the race. So far as my in formation goes. there is no evidence of deterioration in strength in any of our first division clubs of 1909.
 Every American league club that finished below fourth place last season Is better equipped at the points at which weakness was displayed in 1909. club owners who placed too much re- hance on veterans have made a rad leal change in policy and as a result players beyond their prime have been replaced by youngsters whose 1909 per tormances in strong minor leagues re- suited in close competition for their services by major league clubs.
 One of the most gratifying evidences or the progress and prosperity of the American league is that in six of its eitles its 1910 games will be played on grounds owned by the home club. The Fhliadelphia, St. Louis and Cleveland ciuos have modern plants. Chicago's magnificent new park will he ready for occupancy by July l. The Detroit and Washington clubs own the sites for thelr present parks and plan 10 eouip them with steel and concrete struc- | lures next year"

 Of course the best batsman will guess them wrong occasionally, but If he is alert and watches the ball he can be prepared to acquit himself well whenever such an emergency arises. By watching the pitchers every move q batsman can get to learn certain tricks of manner. such as the move ment of the hand, foot or body.

Jet1res or Johnson ?

Now the referee question apparently has been settled in the selection ol Tex" Rickard, the discussions on the coming fight simmer down to the pos sible winner and the condition Of Jef- fries and Johnson. Reports emanatihs from the training camps cannot always be regarded as correct, as they are influenced one way or the other. ac- cording to the viewpoint of the core spondent.
 Reports generally credit Jeffries as being in the very best of shape; that there is no doubt but that he will be in the pink of condition when he enters the ring; that his wind is good and that his trainers are confident that he will dispose of his opponent The same is true of Johnson.
 Nevertheless, there is a bare possi- bility that Jeffries will go stale unless he is properly taken care of. However with Choynski and Jim Corbett in his training camp the big fellow is not near so liable to overdo himself as II he had no experienced fighters to ad- wise him. Corbett and Choynski are both very anxious that Jeffries win this battle. and if the big fellow will heed the warnings of the former greet heavy weights he should not do too much work. Jeffries does not have to train fast. The big battle is six weeks away and Rickard says Jeff can be in shape for the fight in thirty days. If this is true he should take his time, do inst enough boxing to gradually wear off little superfiuous flesh and harden his muscles into fighting condition.
 Some of those who do not get chance to see the champion in action, hut see the pictures of him in his train ing camp, published in the newspapers, figure he will be unable to come back. This is natural enough. People re member Jeffries as he appeared when he fought six years ago. The camera showed him then. Very few saw him except in photographs Of course the photograph of him to-day shows that the bushy black hair is gone; he does not have the youthful appearance, and fans cannot see him as the Jeffries of old. Years tell on every one. Even fighter training for a big battle like the one with Johnson cannot keep from showing his years. The camera can not show Jefrries' real condition. It can merely show that his big stomach is gone and that he is bald-headed an ] some older than when he was last pho tographed in training camp. and that was about six years ago. It is not possible for the camera to make him look as he looked then.
 Rickard also says he is satisfied that Jack Johnson will be in shape to put up. the battle of his life on July f. Johnson has not been idle as many years as Jeffries has and there will be little worry about his condition. In the first place. the white people of the country will not worry about it any way. except that it may be too good for Jeff Johnson does not require a long siege of training for the Jeffries fight, because of his activity fin ring affairs recently.

Hdbice to Young Baseball Players

is about to deliver a curve. another has a peculiar motion of his arm when a fast one or slow one is coming. To the batsman who is purely mechanical in his play there is nothing out of the ordinary to be seen in these move ments, but the heady hitter soon learns what they mean.
 A batsman should stand firmly on both feet If the weight is more on one leg than on the other he will not be m a position to step up or back. accord ing to where the ball is pitched. but with the two legs doing an equal share of the burden he can fall or step quickly and without assuming an un- natural position.

In order to hold a position outside of pitcher in the major leagues to-day you must be able to bat. Managers have more regard for q heavy batter than for the most sensational of field ing players. Fielding can be acquired. but batting is an art.
 In order to be a successful bats man man must study the pitcher just as the pitcher studies him. He should look the hurler right Tn the eye until he begihs to wind up and then watch to catch the ball the minute it leave> his hand.
