DOWNEY STICKS
 WITH CINCINNATI
Tommy Has Elm all Beaten
 Says Rhineland Expert.

Talk about your .has beens'' and ''all-inners," the big leagues are full of them, but the boys that "come back are few and far between. Tom Downey may be classed among the latter as the following will show:
 From Downey's only chance of sticking with the team was to get those dickey legs of his back into shape, and, conversely, his only chance Of losing out with the team was to have those same legs go back on him. Downey's underpinning is now as good as anybody's, and to make sure of this point. he always runs to and from the ball park instead of riding with the other fellows. Goes at good speed too, and never seems to tire. which indicates that the hoofs are in good condition. Inasmuch as Tommasso can copiously ventilate that ball, he is now regarded as most valuable person to have around and Griff was much annoyed at the cool nerve of the Jersey City scribes who have been announcing Downey as their shortstop for the coming sea son. Breen may go there, but 'nix'' on "Our Tommy. y."-Extract from Gin cinnati Tim Star.

BASEBALL NOTES

Some of the candidates for the Northampton team who have been gathered under the wing of Bill Lu- by are Speedy Foran of Syracuse, Frank Scheckard brother of Jimmy of Chicago; Ivers, last year with Coe Brass; and Luby, himself, for the out field; Bill Yale, first base; Jimmie third base; F'laherty, catcher; Nc Lean and Warner, pitchers. There are others who are to report April 10.
 Baseball is like railroading in one way" says "Joe' Birmingham. Here, a few years ago, tine section hands were mostly Irish. The Italians drove them into jobs as foremen and now the Dutch are doing the same thing with the Irish ball players-driving them into jobs as managers, The two big leagues are full of Irish leaders: McGillicuddy, Donovan, McAleer, Me Guire, Jennings Duffy, Bresnahan, Clarke, Dooin and McGraw."
 Things are whole lot different in the National Commission than they used to be before Ban Johnson and now" says Manager Gene McCann. ''The old way of doing business was a farce. The secretary would read off a case between such, and such a club against so and so, and then somebody would say, Throw it in the waste basket. Whats the next move and don't forget to open another bot tie of wine'."

According to Mickey Finn, the prin- cipa1 question of the day is: sHoW many players do I get for my vote. Let George tell.
 Litschi, who is to revert from the Yankees to the Mechanics at the be- ginning of the season, did the clean- up act with the Highlanders in Rich mond yesterday Tn the eight session with the sacks fully tenanted, Litschi ripped off three bagger. He scored a moment later on a sacrifice fly. The Tanks won 10-2.
 This Henny Gagain, the waterville youth who will be tried out at back stop with the Mechanics is being toot- ed as a wonder. Gagain last season worked for the Rockville team, where he caught Plugs Raymond. the Giant hurler. This battery went into would drift in from the big city pre- pared to go into the game, without any signal practice, relying on Gagain to hold him up. Gagain never did need the signals, but followed the course of the ball. Any man who out signals Is certainly some jewel fin the baseball world. @foe z6@
 Catcher Harvey Russell, who is to come from the Tanks to Manager McCann is stinging the ball hard in the practice games. He looks like a good one for a youngSter.
 Cincinnati, O., March 29.-The Ma tionaI Commission has decided that Waterloo, Iowa, the club which re- gently enjoined the Three I Baseball League from throwing it out, is en- titled to stay in. At the same time it ;- Nof 1h1v- que must dismiss the court proceed ings recently brought up. The Three League is ordered to prepare a schedule, with Waterloo included. by April 5. The Southern clubs of the Three I, according to this decision, must either play ball or become out laws. Waterloo is thus victor in the struggle which was one of the bitter est ever started among the minor leagues.
 Eddie Plank, the Athletics veteran pitcher, says he will retire from the game in 1912 and go back to the farm long rest" says Plank ''In 1912 ] will have been a dozen years in the game as a pitcher. I started with Connie Mack, and I want to quit with him. Most of those fellows who sit in the bleachers and roar at you when you nave a DdO Ody Iulnk that all you have to do is travel around the coun- try and work a couple of hours a day. I want to tell them that there is more actual work in pitching one game of baseball than there is in two days work on the farm. Goodbye base ball for Eddie in 1922
