NOTES OF THE GAME

Ray Morgan got back into the game.
but did not have single chance in the
field. The kid also hit in hard luck
scheer. although a left hand batter,
found no trouble in solving southpaw
Grants curves.
Trainer Mike Martin umpired, and gave
general satisfaction. except in one case.
In the eighth inning Scheer was on first,
by virtue of Il hit, and Dixie Walker
struck out; the third strike, a low curve.
got away from the catcher, and, accord
ing to the rules. the batter should be
declared out. Dixie was allowed to stay
on the bases. 1t made no difference with
the result of the game. as no runs were
scored in that chapter Martin admitted
he had forgotten the ruling.
1t seemed strange that with Cy Rigler.
a National League rmpire. on the Vir-
ginia bench, Rigler should not have made
a protest, but he did not utter a peep.
One accident marred the battle. Catcher
Finlay and Third Baseman Mcintyre col
!Ided whils chasing q foul fly in the
Nationals sixth, and Finlay received q
nasty cut under the chin, where he hit
McIntyre's head. Finlay had to retire,
and L.andes was sent ii. behind the bat.
Kuntz made the star catch of the af-
ternoon when he jumped into the air and
pulled down Eddie Ainsmith's high fly
with one hand in the seventh inning.
ShankS and Schecr, Youngstown re-
cruits, showed a .ot OF speed on the
bases.
Manager Griffith reached camp at 2
o'clock. He stated that he had adjusted
the scoreboard matter at the concrete
coliseum. The big scoreboard viii likely
be placed on the centerfel6 fence, instead
OF the right field barrier.
Al Williams to-day demonstrated that
he was perfectly able 10 handle Walter
Johnsons terrific speed. The bulky
backstop was there both ways from the
ace.
Tomorrow Griff's regulars will tackle
the Yannigans in a brisk five-inning
game at the conclusion OF the afternoon
practice.

Ralph Maths, the young recruit Of
the Nationals. VINO was sent to the
Capital by Manager Grinth on sat
urday will be seen on Georgetown
Field Thursday afternoon, working
out with the HnItoppers. when seen
by the club physician yesterday. Maths
was pronounced in good shape, the swell
ing In his throat having gone down. and
with a few days more OF rest and Sc
clusion, Maths will be in first class
shape.
The delay in getting out with the team
is causing the fast lad no little worry,
as Maths has set his heart on making
the big club, and he will leave no stone
unturned to land a place in the outfield
OF the Nationals. When the club returns
to National Park from CharIottesville

WEDDING PROCESS
HITS GEORGETOWN
Large Baseball Squad Cut Down to
Twenty-fve-Probable
Lineup.

The Georgetown baseball squad was
weeded out yesterday, Coach Sprigmar
selecting twenty-five OF the best candi-
dates TO look after different positions
Of the team from now on.
Georgetown seems well fortified in the
catching department. For this position
Lynch. Taylor. Mulaney. and MagneT
were selected. Furys arm is bothering
him considerably at present, and It is
doubtful whether he will he seen in ac-
ton behind the bat during the early
playing season. He will likely be used
in the outtield on account OF his batting.
The pitching staff is well fixed in
having such men as White. O'Connor.
Fienle, Heffernen. Lamberton. and Cass.
White Is in splendid shape and hopes
TO have the best year OF his career. IN
Mulcahey AMI Maurice O'Conner George
town has two stellar first sackers. These
two were chosen to look after the initial
sack Both men have been putting up
a stellar exhibition Of baseball, and Il
is going to be a difficult task to select
the better man for the place.
Second base will be- taken care Of by
Daily or Harvey. Chances favor Daily,
who has been hitting well. and It looks
as though this youngster viii play the
middle station.
hollanuer or ConneUy VIII take care
Of shortstop. Capt. Cogan has shown
good spirit by giving up his old posi-
tion on the team to one or the other.
Cogan stated tina: he would play the
outfield.
Inky Davis and Campazzi lead the
fight for third base. Not much Is known
OF the latter's ability as a baseball
player. but he has already made an
impression on the coach. and is 10 be
considered for the place. Davis play
ing has been excellent so far this sea
son, and great stunts are expected from
him.
The outfielders in line are SitterdinH,
Cogan, Fury, Ryan, and Toomey

Btts of Baseball.

While on the spring training trip two
years ago Chief Meyers made thirty-one
home runs. Arthur Bues, the slugging
recruit with McGraw's outfit, says that
he is out TO beat this record.
Jean PauIette. the clever young Texan.
will doubtless be held by McGraw. The
youngster can give a fine account of
himself at any position. with the possi-
BILE exception Of pitcher.
Manager Fred Clarke has but ten
pitchers all told on his roster. and that
includes Leifield and Noel neither OF
whom is sure.
Evidently Hughey Jennings doesn't
think much OF his pitching stan. He
SAYS the Tigers will depend on hitting
this year.
It is said Pitcher Buck o'Brien. Of
the Boston Red Sox, received a boost
OF 1900 over his contract of last year.
Manager woIverton. Of the Yankees, 1t
Is said, will name no field captain, but
win lead his team in person, either from
the bench or the third base line.
Jack Adams, who started as a pitcher
and developed into a pretty fair catcher,
wants to be a slabman again. and has
asked Manager Harry Davis to give the
matter thought.
Otto Williams says the delay in return
ing his contract to Indianapolis was due
to a mistake, and that he was never a
kold-out.
Cleon Webb Indianapolis pitcher. was
married at Ashtabula, Ohio. on March s,

dresser at Marlin Springs. According
to Sid. the Giants left fielder has ffty-
three articles packed in one suitcase-a
deck of cards and a change of necktie.'
AL Bridwen is suffering from blood
poisoning ut his home IN Portsmouth
Ohio. and was unable to leave with the
rest of the Boston Nationals for their
training camp. He ran a nail in his foot
and is laid up as result.

EARLY START FOR SCHOOLS.
Grade schools Soon to select Base
hall and Field Teams.

Efforts are being made by the Public
School Athletic League TO get an early
start in the organization Of baseball
teams and field day teams in the various
public schools. The lateness in beginning
both baseball and track events in the
schools last season detrscted from what
might have been a banner year. Secre-
tary E. B. Henderson, Of the athletic
league, has sent out circulars to the
principals. requesting them to begin now
to get the youngsters interested In the
sports.
The idea this year will be to have a
field day for each school In the city some
time during the late spring. Each boy
will be allowed to compete in one running
event and one field event. Each dIvi-
sion of public schools will constitute a
league, the team winning most contests
within the league to be declared the
victor.

Waco. Tex. March Is - The Kansas
City Blues arrived here yesterday and
took possession of the ball grounds at
Baylor University, where the White Sox
have been training since March 10. Con-
sequently the SOX had to go to Cotton

Marlin, Tex. March 1S.-The Giant Reg
ulars hooked up this afternoon with the
Kettles" and defeated them. to T. The
game was given for the benefit of the
Ladies' Social Club of Marlin. The
weather was splendid and a good crowd
was present. Hickory Dick Munsell,
who comes from Missouri, pitched for the
youngsters. and his wildness enabled the
regulars to assume lead. which they
easily held. Fullenweider twirled for the
regulars and was unsolvable. He was
succeeded In the latter innings by George
Pierce, McGraw himself pitching the final
round. George Burns, of Utica, n. Y,
was the particular batting star Of the
afternoon.

Clever Fat Men.

1t is frequently averred that fat is
deadening to the brain, and conse.
quently foe to intellectual activity.
But is this so? Some of the greatest
men the world has ever known were
plump even to obesity.
Napoleon was decidedly embonpoint.
DR.. johnson was fleshy even to flabbi.
ness. So was his biographical shad.
ow, Boswell. Balzac, the great French
novelist, was so stout that it was q
days exercise to walk around him,
and he was encircled with bandages
rs if he were hogshead. Rossini, the
composer, was regular Jumbo, since
for six years he never saw his knees.
Jules Janin, the prince of critics,
broke every sofa he ever sat down
upon. Lablanche, the great singer,
was charged three fares when he trav.
eled. Dumas pere was stout, and
Sainte> Beuve carried the stomach of a
Falstaff. Eugene Sue had such aver.

he drank vinegar to keep it down, and
yet he wrote "The Wandering Jew"
