Oriole Park, Baltimore, Is very small.
Del Drake, the Detroit outflelder of
last year, is dissatisfied with his berth
with the Grays, but that won't inter-

season. Drake feels that he ought to
be in the big league, and can't figure
out why he happened to get out and
come to the International.

now at Augusta, Ca, and is playing

WILKESBARRE
GETS kURFESS
Great Young Local Right-hander
Reported Signed by Famous
Billy Clymer.

Harry kid Kurfess, the best right
handed pitcher on the local semi-pro-
fessional baseball fields, has, according
to advices from Wilkesbarre, signed a
contract to play with the famous Billy
Clymer's three-time pennant winning
New York State League club of that
city.
That both manager and PLACER have
made a mutually good deal is evident
to all who know both involved in the
deal. Clymer is without doubt the best
minor league manager in the country,
and, in the opinion of many. has few
equals in the major leagues.
Kurfess lisa great young pitcher, with
wonderful speed, a remarkably fast
curve ball and a grand head on his
shoulders. If this boy does as we'll in
professional baseball, as he gives every
indication of doing, he should land in
the major leagues. The only possible
fault that al be found with him is
that he is a little small, but he is "mak-
ing good" all the time, and that's what
counts.

DOTS MILLER WILL
PLAY FIRST SACK

Dots Miller, of Kearny. will be
regular first baseman of the Pittsburgh
National League Club this season, ac-
cording to the latest bulletin handed
out by Manager Fred Clarke, of the
Pirates.
The regulars, the team that will play
the opening game on April II, praetised
at the training camp in Hot Springs
yesterday, and at the conclusion of
the hard workout Clarke announced
that Miller looked the most available
man for the initial sack. Johnny
should be good in his new posi-
ton. Mccarthy, who was with the
Smoky City Club last year, will cavort
around the position left open by Mil
Ter, at second base. The Pirates will
lineup this way in the opening cham
pionship contest: Miller. first base;
Mccarthy, second base; Byrne, third
base; Wagner. %shortstop; Carey, left
field; Donlin. centre field. and Wilson,
right field.

ILL BRENNAN'S IDEA FOR

NEW ORLEANS. La, March
23-Umpire Bill Brennan has
thought up a novel method
for testing the speed of
pitchers. He has suggested
the use of a punching
machine like those seen in penny
arcades. The pitcher throws at
the machine with an ordinary
baseball and the force of the
blow is registered.
Undoubtedly this scheme would
work. 1t would be novel to
gauge the exact speed of the
star twirlers and compare them
