Out in South Side
Exhibitions
REAL GAME AT
HOME ON SATURDAY

Cassidy's Chickens did more limber-
ing up at South Side this morning.
The only new ones in the bunch were
Kiester and Earl Delaney, who got
In late yesterday afternoon. Kiester's
contract is in, but Delaney came down
from Swarthmore TO show Cassidy
what he can do on an infield job, and
he satisfied everybody that he had the
goods. Every other man is doing
good work. considering that they have
not logged over a ball field for six
months. Manser, Blizzard. Wyckoff
and Merchant, of the pitching staff,
worked out in good form. With four
other pitchers on the way for trials,
Cassidy will have a hard time pick
ing the men he wants for the berths
None Of the pitchers have worked the
kinks out of their arms yet, but be-
fore the end Of the week, it is ex-
pected that the men will have furnish
ed the management a good idea OF
their ability.
Regulars and Yanigans will play
tomorrow, and on Friday the bunch
will go to Baltimore to play their
first regular game with the Baltimore
Eastern Leaguers. They will show
here on Saturday in a game with AL
bany of the New York State League.
South Side Park presented a real
baseball picture this morning, and the
ideal weather proved most encourag-
ing to Cassidy, who has been hoping
for pleasant days for the preliminary
training season. The diamond has
been placed in good shape for the
workouts, and the improvements to
the grand stand are well under way

Six months of undiluted joy for the
baseball fan. in other words the 1911
baseball season. opened today in both
Of the big leagues.
Today begins what bids fair TO be
the most propitious year the national
game has ever known. Baseball has
grown so tremendously big and is nov
conducted on such a comprehensive
and business-like basis that it Is pret-
ty safe TO predict that every season
will be a little better on the whole
than the preceding var knowledge
Of this fact prompts President Lynch,
OF the National. and President john
SON. of the American, to predict that
1011 viii set new record in attend

A remarkable feature OF the season
ov onening IS that the Chicago Cubs,
ho won the National League pen
f with ease last year. are not the
orites for the honor this year. The
'rt end In the betting Is the New
York Giants, who finished second In

UMP PROBLEM
CONFUSES I.C.L
New Leagues GO Slowly in
Selecting Indicator Holders
for Season

Everything now looks as though the
season of the Inter-City Baseball
League would get a good start, and
that the race will be nip and tuck
A meeting of the managers of the
four teams was held Sunday afternoon
and the schedule was again gone over
and it was the opinion of all the
managers that there could not have
been better arrangement of games.
The rules were also adopted govern
ing the league and the final details
looked after so that when the time
comes there will be no opportunity
for any back-dOwn on the part Of any
one concerned with the combination.
At present one matter which is
causing considerable worriment to the
management is the selection of the
umpires. No satisfactory persons
have yet been mentioned. The mana
gers of the Fifth Ward and the Sea-
board teams, and the DUPONT and the
Gas Company, have been holding off
on this subject aud neither of the
managers has cared as yet to submit
any names.

WALTZ NO MATCH
FOR DICK NELSON

The fight at the National Sporting
Club. New York. tonight. between Pal
Moore, the hard hitting Philadelphian,
and Freddie Welch, former light
weight champion of England, is ex-
pected to be one Of the best of the
waning sporting season. Welch must
defeat Moore decisively if he Is to be
in demand here. He has been prom
ised matches with a number of the
top notchers in his class. but if he
fails to make a high class showing
tonight it will be back to England for
his.

BIG LEAGUES
START TODAY
Baseball Season Of 1911 is
Opened With Games in
Eight Cities
HARD TO PICK
THE PENNANT WINNERS
RINGING UP THE CURTAIN
ON 1911.

BY Thomas Lynch, National
League President:
1T seems likely that a brill
liant and prosperous season for
baseball is impending. At least
six of the eight clubs in the
National League will be keen
contestants for pennant honors
and the right to meet the Amer
lean League champions in the
worlds championship series.
On paper the New York Giants,
the Chicago Cubs and the Pitts
burg Pirates are admittedly
well matched, while Brooklyn,
Philadelphia and Cincinnati
have filled holes that hereto
fore have sapped their strength.
The other two clubs are under
fine management and may prove
great surprises. The result
viii be that the coming season
will likely produce some new
records"
