how we'll they handle themselves cannot
be determined until they are seen in ac-
ton.
Strong ON Catchers.
For the back-stop position. Waldron.
Feenan. and Smith are still In school,
while Charlie Duffy. who caught on the
crack team Of two years ago. will
be able again to don the nit. His ap-
pearance will strengthen the team con-
siderably. as he IS a valuable men. es-
pecially for young pitchers. Among the
new men will be Furey. Dunn. and Ha-
gerty, of the football team, and while
not much is known about the last two.
the work Of Furey as a prep several
years ago will surely make him a strong
bidder for first call in this position.
As battery work is more important than
anything else at this time. nothing will
be done as regards the other positions
until the men take to outdoor work.
Many Of last seasons men are left. in
GLIDING Cogan. Gibson. Dugan. Murphy,
and Hunt. Among the new men will be
Davis. of Business High School. and
Quinlan. two infielders. who bid fair to
make good. while Hagerty will also take
a chance at first base. McCauley and
Costello will try for the outer garden.
1t is also the intention of Coach Sprig-
man to give much time to the develop
ment of the prep nine. as he believes
there Is world Of fine material going
to waste in the prep school just for the
want of the proper coaching. and GER
tainly such a plan is a good one, since
the college would be greatly benefited
by being able to draw on its own prep
school for her athletes.

honor at this institution. He captained
the baseball and track team last season
and especially in track has he been a
strong contender among the high school
athletes.
The relay which will go to Boston will
be composed Of Martin. Gibbs. Sprowels
and Davis. The first two mentioned have
run on the relay before, and are expert
enced men. while this will be the first
college race for the other two runners
AS far as can be judged from the way
the men have been working on the track
the team will be well-balanced quartet
and able to give a good account Of itself
Saturday night.
The men will leave Friday morning
on the Fedora. Express. accompanied by
Manager Wymard. while Coach Foley
will take the remainder of the squad
to Baltimore. where they are entered in

The Legislative Committee did
the proper thing in calling a pri-
mary election. This gives each
candidate a fair show and every
Democrat. a chance Ito vote. 1t
leaves no man with an excuse to
bolt. We can recall but one in
stance in which the Democratic
voters of Morgan county did not
participate in the selection Of
the nominee and that was at the
time that the Legislature made
Morgan and Wolf two separate
districts and each county nomi-
mated a candidate, W. B. Lykins
in Morgan and a Mr.. Oliver in
Wolf. Just before the general
election the Court of Appeals de-
cided that the act creating the
new districts was unconstitution-
al, so we had but one district
and the party two nominees, so
the committee in the two coun-
ties were called together and as
it was VOLTS time they declared
Oliver the nominee.
