NORFOLK Va. March 22.-Elberfeld
and FOrman having arrived, the roster
OF the washington ball team is com
plete except for Walter Johnson, who
will meet the squad when IL returns
to Washington; Hovlik, the young
pitcher who was supposed TO have start
ed long ere this from his home i'm Iowa,
and Bill Hendricks. Johnson's pitching
find. who will not report until his school
season is over.
Taking it by this the squad is more
encouraging than in l905 and 1908 II
might be cIassed with the 1909 spring
hopes. except that the awful slump Of
last year discourage even the most
sanguine from picking Washington bet
ter than seventh place, no matter how
CooG its material. Most OF the pro
fessiouaI critic-. both newspaper men,
manag gers, and pia yers, picked the clnb
to lead the second division in 1902. They
had another think coming before the
season was half over, and it Will be
many a long day before such roseate
predictions are made again.
Lack the Placement.
So far. the hitting has been strong
and satisfactory fin regard to the
/ viciousness Of the clouts. but the work
/ has not been startling in the way of
placing the bin-ies where they would

/ where they ne.er would have been
/ touched until ,hey stopped rolling, but
! these have been rather exceptional
! While this is not soothing To the
| average fan. it is little more than can
! be expected this early in the season.
/ More or less experimenting is in prog
/ ress, and the Older men simply have
not vet gotten their eyes on the ball
/ They are a little lacking in confidence

our hardest heroes are plate shy and

] In the exhibition games against minor

Another thing that stings the majors
