BASEBALL GAMES
SCHEDULED
GAMES TO-DAY AND TOMORROW
IF WEATHER HOLDS-WENAT-
CHEZ TEAM GETS MANAGER
FROM SPOKANE.

Mudders will have the best Of it
at the ball grounds today. The men
have been trying out on dry track
all the week and today they will
have a chance to show what they
can do in the wet. If there are any
mudders in the Spokane crowd there
is a chance Of some new records be-
ing made.
Unless some changes are made the
men will play as in tho order an
nounced two days ago: Davis If,
Flood 3b, Pendry 2b, Nordyke 1b,
Kippert CT, Keener IF, Cartwright IS,
Holm and Brown p, and Clark and
Ostdick C.
The city team has Brooks and
Wright for catchers, Collins and Bon
ner for pitchers, and McGinn out
field. The local men on the city
team are Ames SIS, Chapman IF,
Black CT, Reeves If, Dunning 2b, and
Perry 3b.
The weather yesterday did not
hold up throughout the afternoon.
The boys came in early and have
rested up to noon time today.
Tomorrow is the day when crowds
from other towns are looked for. 1t
is thought that there will be 20
men here from Spokane and others
from Ephrata, Wilson Creek, Water
vile, Leavenworth and other towns
near by.
Joe Stengle, who played with the
city league in Spokane last year, has
been engaged to manage the Wenat-
chez team. Percy Scheble and his
associates have all been too busy to
give their full and undivided time
to the work, and with their usual
consideration for the best interests
of the park have engaged a special
man to give all his time to the work.
Later.-The game scheduled for
today was postponed on account Of
the weather conditions, but there will
be a rafting good game tomorrow,
weather permitting, and games dur
ing most of the days of next week.
The park management expect to ask
the business men to close up one or
two afternoons during next week
that a good attendance may be had
at the games. In the game for to-
morrow Nordyke is scheduled to play
with the local men, as is also the
battery.
Seventeen men will constitute the
1910 Spokane playing staff, accord
ing to the first official announcement
of the seasons plans made today by
Captain Harry Ostdick.
This means that leaves will fall in
great swaths when Captain Harry
starts out with the pruning knife
about April Is, for there are in the
neighborhood of 25 men on the Cohn
string.
Two catchers are to be retained
permanently, Captain Ostiick and
probably Pepper" Clark, who is a
seasoned veteran. Brooks and
Wright are the two remaining back
stops with the team at present.
Both are showing up well.
The Indians will start out with
seven pitchers, though this number
MAJ be cut to six after the first
month or so If the others get in
shape. At present Cohn has 10 slab
artists throwing the pellet around the
lot-Holm, Killilay, Collins, Hickey,
Baker and Claf1in, veterans, and Bon
ner. Brown, Smithson and McGinn,
youngsters.
A full infield, three men for the
gardens and a good utility man will
complete the array. At present Cohn
has five men trying out for infield
positions-Nordyke, Pendry, Gran
vile, Flood and Cartwright-and
four good men in the outfield-Davis,
Keener, Kippert an Weed. This
will give two good extra men from
whom a good utility man will be
chosen, and the other men put out
in the Twilight league for time.
