Kid Elberfeld, the veteran infielder

Elberfeld has purchased a farm four

place with prize chickens and Berkshire
hogs and says that he will exhibit his
best at the fair next year. He declines
to discuss his salary demands.

for my team" says Manager Smith,

for his efforts. He can't expect major

though he will be with a class A club

GRIFF
ISNOT WORRYING
BY SENATOR"

While Chattanooga is practically out
OF the running. the disposition Of Kid
Elberfeld Is one Of the least Of my
WORRIES" said Clark Griffith today,
when asked as to the rumor that the
Tennessee club had failed to exercise
its option.
while he has outlived his useful
ness in the majors, Elberfeld is too
good ball player to go to waste, and
as soon as some of the other of the
larger minor leagues find that he is
on the market, there should be some
lively bidding"
Griffith has sent out letters to sew
eral cities concerning the player. but
as the minds of most of the managers
are just now far removed from base
ball. the Nationals leader does not ex-
pect action for some time.
Just as soon as he can clear up all
the routine matters he has before him,
attend the annual meeting of stock
holders next Tuesday, and mail con-
tracts to all the Washington ball play
ers, Clark Griffith intends to slip away
to Charlottesville to complete training
plans for the Nationals.
Thus far most of the details have
been handled through Manager Moore.
Of the University of Virginia nine. but
Griffith wants to make a personal in
vestigation of the situation and see that
nothing Is overlooked that might add
to the convenience of the players during
their stay in the college town.
Some one has tipped Griffith of that
y man wants a real enjoyable meal.
there is many a place away from Char
lottesville where 1t can be better served
than at the place picked for the train
ing camp, so this will be a matter
looked into with more earnestness than
any other feature.
May Have Trouble.
They tell me that We may have trou-
BILE in getting the proper sort of food
for the players" said the manager to-
day. You know when a man comes
out OF winters loaf and starts stren-
he needs the best that can be obtained.
while / do not believe in a diet for
ball players, l am willing, II there is no
other course open, to have a regular
training table like they do for the Vir-
ginia team, where the Nationals can
get good wholesome food and at the
same time all eat together.
The question Of rooms does not
worry me much. l understand there
are several hotels at Charlottesville
and, while l would rather hopsc the
whole squad togetf er, we can split up
without any great Inconvenience.
IF We could renc some biz house
where no one but the tal club would
stay, / would favor such a plan. but i
do not believe t will be possible to lease
one because of our comparatively short
stav there"

CHICAGO. Dec. 27.-Pat Dougherty,
once one of the most formida BILE
sluggers in the major leagues, is due
to slide back to the minors. Though
Charlie Comiskey is willing to hang

When Doughtery broke into the

Americans. He was a wonderful base
runner and his short, choppy singles
over the heads of the infieldcrs
brought many victory for Jimmy

White Sox he was still the same old
