MAILER PLANS CHANGES
FOR The NATIONAL TEAM
Will Experience Difficulty in Securing
Right Kind of Material at This
Season os Year-To Try
Youngsters.

Manager McAleer of the Washing
tons is not satisfied with his bah team,
and i'm this respect he does not differ
from any of the followers of the Ma
tionas. McAleer has his mind pre-
pared to make several changes i'm his
lineup as soon as he gets in a position
to do so. which naturally must mean
that he will have to wait until he gets
some new material.
The teams fielding has been miser-
able all season. ana several Of tho
games i'm which it was badly beaten
would have been victorious but for
the mishaps which gave the opposition
a chance to make winning rally. AS
the team is now made up it is unques-
tionably the strongest that McAleer
can put in the field with the material
he has on hand, barring, of course
the catcher. for a more experienced
man than Henry would be of much
more service. But II is evident that
McAleer intends TO start experiment.
ing much earlier this year than ever
before. He says that he win give al
kinds of youngsters chances, for nc
believes that even though they lack
ability they would be of more service
to his team than several of the men
now playing.
But it is not going to be an easy
matter TO get playing material at this
season of the wear plgVers on u1inor
league teams are not available just
now, and it seems doubtful If there
is a chance for McAleer to make any
trades now that would bQpeht him
without giving up players he cannot
spare.
