TIP FROM WASHINGTON.

PHILADELPHIA, PA. March 10.
The tip 10 out--and on apparently
good authority--thst the Spalding-
Reach bail for 1911 will be just what
the batsmen have been crying for
lively enough to ring loudly on the
stick and to bounce high when It hits
the ground. In such event there will
be no chance for howl about amend.

There was considerable experiment.
ing done with the ofYicial ball last
season. The idea Of substituting cork
for the rubber center was put into
force, and loud cries of lamentation
resulted. While the ball seemed to
travel nicely when first smitten, IL
lost Its shape In most amazing fash
ion. This was only logical. To prove

chunk with equal cruelty. The rub

Late in the season the makers man
aged TO get the proportions OF cork
and rubbed better adjusted. Some
nifty whanging ensued. The batsmen
seemed to fasten their fangs in the
September edition like hungry wolves,
and there was some elegant hitting.
Educated by these facts. the manu-
facturers did further experimenting
during the winter. and It is now al
legged that the ball will be just what
the pitchers like to throw, and yet
just what the batsmen like to sting.
It's we'll We wanted 1t that way

But the season is early yet, and Re-
velle Is a wise boy who does not be-
lievs In working his arm off when it
10 not necessary.
The pitchers were not the only
ones who Ealddened old hoss Irwin.
An infieider named Litscher went in
at shortstop and proved himself q
demon ciouter. He got four hits out

other homer, scored four runs. had

Otis johnson and Roach are going
to have their work cut out to beat
this boy to regular berth, for the
advances notices Of Litschi are very
favorable. He comes from the Tri-

real ball players have learned base

they become boomers.
Friend Bunting did not cover HIM
self with glory in the game against
Georgia Tech. He got base on balls,
but no hits In three other times up,
scored . run, had two put outs, an
assist and two errors. One of the
latter was excusabie. a. the ground
was rough and the ball took q bad
bound. His other error was q high
throw.
Bunting always gave the writer the
impression that he was careless. He
would make O marvellous stop and then
with plenty OF time would follow It
up with a bum chuck. With plenty
of speed he would be on q hunt like q
hawk and then tumble II. Still he
also conveyed the impression that he
had the making Of real ball player
At times he was exaspersting and yet
at other times he would act like
sure-enough big Lacquer. A manager
like McAieer should soon determine
whether Bunting has real class.
