to wire my brother to make good with
the White Sox this spring. You may see
him there this summer. He is a south
paw, too. He played in the Western
Canada League last summer, and made
a fine record for himself.
Dolly, / wish you all the good luck
in the world this season, and pray that
you win more than half of your games.
May your batting average also be as good
as last year. If the outfielders hit any
where near as they should Washington
should finish in fifth place. Remember
me to the boys and to Joe Quirk. Your
friend, BILL HISRICHS."
Bunting weighs 165 pounds and stands
six feet He has dandy whip, and since
his first day out has been shooting 'em
to first with a quick underhand throw
He reminds one of Jack Doolan, of the
Phillies, in action He is slender and
wiry, but covers a whole lot of ground
In hitting Bunting appears to be a real
find. So far he has shown a great eye
for the ball, and in practice his drives
have been hard hit and on a line. Even
the veterans are forced to take notice
and nothing but words of praise on all
sides can be heard of the youngsters

CONTEST WINNERS
ARE CONFIDENT
Fat Men Will Send a Strong
Team to Buffalo.

Many Washington tenpin bowlers are
busy making preparations for their trip
to the National Bowling Association tour
nament at Buffalo. 1t is doubtful If the
Capital has ever before been represented
by such an aggregation of classy bowl
ers on an occasion of this kind.
or those to make the trip none are more
enthusiastic or confident of being in the
money than the teams that won the trips
offered by The Washington Herald in the
popularity contest closed last week. The
Carroll Institute team is showing better
form just, now than at any time during
the season. The men are keeping on
edge. and Capt. Walsh looks for some
splendid totals. No team has a license
to spill more pins than the Saengers.
Their rolling OF late has been nothing
short of marvellous, as was shown by
their recent set of more than 5000. None
are more confident than the Knickerbock-
ers. Capt. Page does not look for a
worlds record. but is certain his team
will hang up prize money totals.
The Fat Men will present a most for
midable crew. Spurred on by their great
success at st. Louis, they figure on even
greater results at Buffalo. Every man
is fit and confident. The Chamber OF
Commerce and Palace teams will look
as good as any. While not making pre-
dictions, they are confident of making to-
tails that will be a credit to National
Capital bowlerS.
The following communication was re-
ceived from A. C. Machler, OF the Sean
gerbunds:
Mr.. John F. Broadfoot, Contest Editor,
The Washington Herald.
The final announcement of the stand
ing of the teams in the Popularity Con-
test held by The Washington Herald was,
needless to say, very gratifying to the
members of the Saengerbund bowling
team. To have won one of the free trips
to Buffalo, in view of the keen compe-
tition existing, is an honor of which we
may well be proud of.
while we did not finish in the position
we held almost to within an hour of
the closing Of the contest, we neverthe-
less feel just as pleased, particularly in
view of the fact that one of the other
winners Is also a member of our District
League, the oldest tenpin league in the
District. We take opportunity to con-
graduate the other two winners upon
their well earned victory and good for
tune.
Permit me on behalf of the team and
myself, to thank you, and The Washing
ton Herald, for the uniform courtesy
accorded US by yourself and the men,
bers of your staff. in our dealings with
you during the contest, which, under
your capable management, was run of
under IDEAL conditions.
Hoping the three Washington Herald
teams will acquit themselves creditably
at the Buffalo tournament, I beg to re-
main, sincerely yours,
"a. c. MACHLER,
For Saengrrbund Bowling Team"

THE GUARD MEET
Additional Entries from
Georgetown University.


Georgetown University will have a good
sized squad in the National Guard indoor
meet, which will be held at the National
Guard Armory Friday night Capt Ed
wards. manager of the meet. announced
yesterday that he had received additional
entries from the Hilltoppers.

open and 5O-yard hurdle; T. Sullivan, in
the 22O-yard dash, and J. Mclaughlin in
the 5O-yard dash open and in the 4+O-yard
run.
Western and Central High schools will
not be represented in the meet, giving as
the reason the excuse that the men were
out of training.
Preliminaries in all the field events and
the dashes and short runs up to the so
yards, will be run off tonight in the
armory. Finals only will be contested on
the night, of the meet. To-night's trials

Athens, Ca, March S.-After cold.
bleak morning, the sun came out at
noon to-day and brought with 1t ideal
baseball weather. Consequently. Athens
was enabled to uphold its unblemished
character as an ideal training camp. To-
days practice was devoted to batting
exclusively. Duke Farrell was SO sore
from his earlier workout that he did
not feel equal to handling even the easy
tosses of the recruit pitchers.
Irwin had charge, and he gave in
structions to every player who went to
the plate as to just where he wished him

versatility into the stick-work of his
colts
Joe Walsh. the catcher, who served
several months with the Highlanders last
season, was the sensation of the after
noon. He hit to all fields, and most of
his swats were long ones. He drove the
ball five or six times far enough for
home runs. Outfielder Bailey appeared
able to place his hits to any spot at
will. OF course, the pitching OF Revelle,
Burbanks, and Ables was child's play
to that which will characterize the
American League campaign.
One thing, however. in Revelle's work
looks most promising. He has fine con-
troll, something which is usually lacking
at this early stage Of development

CROSSLEY RESIGNS POST.
Physical Director Leaves Hamilton
College.

Special to The Washington Herald
Clinton, n. Y, March S.-John T.
Crossley, who made a host of friends
in Washington when he was director
of physical culture at the Columbia
Athletic Club in the nineties, has resigned
from his position as gymnasium director
at Hamilton College, and will retire to
his home in Washington
Crossley is one of the best known of
the older generation of athletes in this
country. AS one of the vaudeville team
of ''Crossley and Elder" he tourned
Europe and this country with a remark
able exhibition of high jumping, leaping,
acrobatics. and pole-vaulting.S Later he
was with Barnum & Bailey, doing
somersaults over elephants. In the cir
Gus world he was the first to race against
a horse. Incidentally he was a sprinter
of note. at one time holding the world s
championship in the hundred yards.
, Crossley had charge of the Columbia
Athletic Club when that organization
led the District in all kinds of athletics,
and he was well-known in athletic circles
here. Then he went to Orange, and for
the past twelve years has been in
charge of the Hamilton College gym. To
Hamilton men he Is affectionately
known as Uncle John" and his going
will be a personal loss to every one. Few
athletes on retiring can, like Uncle
john" point to forty-five years of un-
broken activity.

route. and his work is already at
tracing attention in Atlanta
Conway started his baseball ca
reer on the sand lots of Youngs-
town, where he was soon recog-
nized as about the best outfielder
and catcher in that section of the
country. His chance to break into
organized baseball came IN 1903,
when he was given trial with
the Charleroi club, of the Pennsyl-
vania and West Virginia League.
The Charleroi bunch found it hard
shedding, and Conway was allowed
to finish the season OF 1903 with
Youngstown, his home city. He
looked so good that he was imme-
diately signed up for last year, and
was a prime favorite (strange as It
may seem) in his own town. He
finished the 1910 season with a bat
ting average of .303, felded .936, and
stole fifty-four bases. The only
player in that circuit who had any
thing on him in the base-stealing
line was DOC" Ralston. and his rec
ord shows only ffty-five purloined
sacks.
Conway has already been dubbed
'Hackenschmidt' by the members
OF the team because of his powerful
build. Trainer Quirk pronounces
him as perfect. His back and shoul-
der muscles stand = out like whip
cords, and for a big man. he is
wonderfully fast on his feet.
Although last season Conway
played center field. left field, and

Dolly heard from Hinrichs several
times during the winter. and when he
reached the hotel here in Atlanta a let
ter was waiting for him from the big
twirler, showing that Hinrichs is not
lacking in appreciation and good wishes.
According to Hinrichs' missive, his case
is not a hopeless one by any means, for
he has so far recovered that he can
walk about and play ball, and also write
his name. This seems hard to believe, as
Hinrichs' entire right side was paralyzed
from his shoulder to his ankle when he
was taken from the hospital
Gray has permitted the writer to use
a portion of Hinrichs' missive, which
