Manager Larkie of the West Ends stated that he would resign to the league the franchise of that team, as he was expecting to leave town- His resignation was accepted with regret and the franchise was voted to Frank CliSh of the West Side, who had an application before the meeting.
 Treasurer Fields reported that only one team had as yet complied with the regulations about posting their forfeit money, and next Saturday was voted to be the final date for posting forfeits with the treasurer.
 A schedule covering the season from May 1st to Sept. 25th was presented by the president. It will be looked over by the managers and action on it taken later- It provides for a total of 24 games between the West Ends, Greene vile, Centrals and Falls, each team playing eight with every other.

Five Teams in Amer. League Race Athletics Good Any-Detroits Not Any Stronger
 Academy Out for First Practice-City League Trans
 fers West Ends Franchise.

1 begin to pitch till a couple of bases l Here are four crackajack pitchers ready to work whenever the tall man. ager gives the sign. In addition the ] two well known quantities are Jimmy | Dygert and Jack Coombs. Jeems has fostered his spitball delivery to the point where he has added a new de- livery to his stock He weighs more and has vigorously trained to get into condition Coombs is as good as ever Of the new talent, nobody can tell how they will shape up. Connie had a bunch of young pitchers with him youngsters the rest are mediocre at the present.
 The infield. with Houser, Rarth and McInnis in reserve, is one of the class fest in the coutry, but the outfeld is a proposition that will require consid- erable thought on Comics part Mur- phy is the only one of the trio who seems assured of a berth and the fight for the other places is a battle with Topsy Hartsei and Rube Oldring a shade in advance of the others.
 The fundamental proposition with any team is speed. Couple speed on bases, speed at the bat and in the field, with pitching quality. and the team that combines these has some thing in stock. Watch the Athletics this season.
 Detroit No Stronger.
 Detroit is not whit stronger than last season. with the possible eXcep- ton of Casey behind the bat. How ever a young catcher may show plen- ty down in the south. but when he meets the moguls of the ball world, the boys whose kleptoraniac predi- lections keep catchers awake nights trying to stop. he'll find the going hard.
 At any rate, neither Schmidt nor Stanage will do for backstopping with the Tigers. Outside of the catching department. the balance of the team is com prised of the vets who won last year and all are going just as fast.
 White Sox Have Two Finds"
 The White Sox. with the addition shortstop whom every Eastern league player says is a second Herman Long, and Owen zeider. a superb outfieIder who has been the greatest sensatio boys have been immeasurably strengthened The veterans have been slowly weeded and the former stars will have a crowd of fast, youngsters with a corps of stalWart pitchers who ought to meas ure' up to the standard of any bunch of boxmen. Walsh and Frank Smith, with Jimmy Scott are @ classy trio, and the youngsters whom Hugh will keep will have to. be good to pass muster before his critical eye.
 And don't forget Duffy. There is not 3 trick connected with the game that Hugh doesn't know and a few of them he has invented himself When he starts in to teach those youngsters of his from his store of Knowledge they will have one of the best tutors in the world. That's an asset for a ball club not to be despised.

Coach Aultman kept the boys on the jump with a constant call for more ginger, and devoted a good part of the drill to speed in handling the ball. There is an opening game on Satur- day, Mystic being the first team to play here. so that the boys have need to round into some sort of shape in a hurry.
 An infe1d lineup comprised Bailey and InG1is in the box, Steve Ricketts behind the bat. Lefty" Grove at first, Charlie Crocker at second Captain Hendrick at short and Murray third. Among the outfielders were Moves, the star of last season; Champion, Bert Bailey, the pitcher, Jay Ricketts and several others.
 For the first day the practice was encouraging, and the boys give prom ise of having something to put over on Mystic on Saturday.

 Speaker Due for Great Year.
 Wonderful things are expected and predicted of Iris Speaker this year, and from the reports from the south he's going to live up to his reputation. As far as the other outfielders are concerned they'll be able to do things like they did last year. Jack Thoney is useless to the team, and when Fay Tor left $13,OO0 in Jack McCaffrey's hands in Canada for IThoney, he re- .eived the incest gilded brick that has | been passed for many moon.
