BOSTON BASEBALL OUTLOOK.
Great Improvement Shown by Both
Teams During Past Week.

Boston, April "a Both Boston teams
improved greatly in their Work last
week and their batting and fielding
figures took jump upwards, The
Red Sox won three of the four games
played. the pitchers showing better
form. They were particularly effec-
tive against the Athletics and except
in Saturdays game We're not forced
to exert themselves against the
worlds champions.
Though the Nationals lost four of
their FIVE games the men did better
work in the field and at the bat. Poor
pitching in the Philadelphia series
was responsible for the majority oil
the defeats.
This week finds Eddie Cicctte lead
ing the Red Sox batsman, Joe Wood
having cropped to fourth place. Larry
Gardner, however. is the real leader
of the team and his work last week
was little short of phenomenal. His
batting at present is far ahead of the
form ne showed on the spring train
ing trip. Speaker, Engle and Carrigan
also made big gains over their hitting
of last week and all three are now
in the honor class.
Engle. who is tied with Gardner in
runs scored was the first of the SOX
to get home run, Though not fin
ished product at third base. Engle has
been Going fair work and has given
satisfaction. 1t was Speakers timely
single that won Saturdays game
against the Athletics and gave Collins
a well earned victory.
Alva Williams is causing all kinds of
favorable comment by his fine work at
first base. His batting too has been
good and it looks at present as if an
able successor to Jake Stahl has been
unearthed 1t was due to Williams
wonderful reach and Hooper's remark
able throw that Krause. the Athletic
pitcher, was thrown out at first base
on sure single in Saturdays game.
Yerkes has done well as a substitute
to Charley Wagner and his fielding and
batting assures him q permanent berth
with the team. Though he is not the
ground coverer that Wagner is. his
work is very satisfactory.
Seven men on the Nationals are
batting better than 300, with Hub"
Perdue. the banner man at 500. Scotty
Ingerton, however, is the real leader
of the team with 421. An injury forced
him to rest last week and Butler. a
Fall River boy. took his place with
gratifying results. Butler looks like "A
conner and viii remain member Of the
club, Spratt, who led the team last
week, has dropped to third place.
Tenney kept UP his good work Of the
previous week and is but few points
shy of the 400 mark. Graham and Ra-
riden. the two regular catchers. ad-
vanced their batting averages and both
are now in the 800 class.
Herzog. Goode, Clarke and Miller
made gains in their figures, though
none of them are yet among the 300
men. Miller and Goode had a number
of chances to bring in runs last week
with a timely hit. but they failed.
Clarke in left field. and Herzog at
short stop, did excellent work in the
field

SPORTING NOTES..

Spring football practice began Mon
day at Yale, the work being OF d gem
eral character as the punting and
other kicking contests will not be
started until later in the season. One
of the arguments advanced by the
football leaders for getting out large

the changes in the rules of the game
there is great opportunity for the small
