White Expects to Be in
Game for Many Years

WACO, Tex, March 23.-Fans are he
ginning to wonder how long Doc White
will stick to fast company. He has
lately signed a three-year contract,
which makes it look as if he were sure
to take that San Francisco trip in 1915
Doc is one ball player of hundreds who
know exactly how to preserve his arm
so it gives right results at a second s
call. He doesn't take any chance OF
reporting for spring training without
having had at least two weeks prac-
tice at home. The only thing that
bothers him at first is running tn"
bases, but his veteran arm seems as
good as ever.
Doc is a player who can get an out
field Job after his pitching days are
over-if he wants II. He Is one of the
few pitchers who can hit that ball or
wait out four wide ones. Bill Lange
is another--but Bill is not the subject
of this discourse. The one ambition
of Docs life Is to stick to the Sox long
enough to land a major league man
agerial berth. And White has ever!'
necessary quality that makes up sue
cessful boss lie has been manager or
the Sox Seconds for years while on
tour, and handles them with consum-
mate skill. Last, but not least, Doc
can draw a fat salary on the stage, can
promote wrestling shows, can fill teeth.
and run an athletic goods supply house.
So he's in no immediate danger OF
starving to death.

Brookland Nine Meets
Baltimore Polytechnic

Catholic University's baseball team
starts It's 1912 baseball season today at
$3.50 o o'clock on the Brookland diamond,
with Baltimore Polytechnic Institute as
its opponent. Although there are one or
two new faces on the Brooklanders'
team, the majority of positions are oc-
cupied by last years performers. The
game will be called promptly at S:S
p. m.
Among the principal changes in per-
sonnel of the Catholic University team
will be the presence of Mcdonnell at
first, instead of behind the plate.
Dutch" Hessler. who occupied the In
itial sack last season. is unable to play,
so Mcdonnell was chosen for his sub
stitute. The latters place will be taken
bv Zachary, who has been a substitute
catcher and outhelder. -,
Second base, short and third base will
be occupied by Widmayer, Hayes, and
Horan, and. together with Hessler,
should constitute an impenetraole In
field. ., ~.
Captain Greene has not yet named his
outfield. but six capable men are out for
the positions.

Thirty Players Have
Chance With Nationals

There are thirty players on the ros-
ter OF the Nationals, and thirty of them
have chances to make the team, ac-
cording to Manager Griffith. No team
has been yet chosen, no combination
of players yet determined. In the eX-
hibition series opening Wednesday with
Georgetown, Manager Griffith PLANS to
use every player on his roster. He
wants to see what the young infielder
can do in real game. how a young
outfielder handles himself. how his
buding pitchers face batsmen in strange
uniforms. He will watch the actions
of every one of these youngsters with
an all-discerning eye, hoping to find
signs of promise.
The one undoubted star picked up
this season by the Nationals seems to
be Dan Moeller, the outtielder from
John Cancels Rochester club. This
young man, tall and trim as a racing
Yacht handles himself like a veteran.
In running under a fly in the outfield
he is as graceful as Cobb, Speaker or
Milan, the models of the American
League. He hits from both sides at
the bat, switching TO the right side
whenever a southpaw is pitching
against him. Once under way on the
base lines he travels with great speed
and slides as well as any player in the
league. Unless he Is what is known as
a ''bloomer'-one who shows great skill
in the spring to lose 1t in the summer
he is going to make the team and a
reputation at once.

TURNER INJURED

John Kilonis and Local
Athlete Seen in Clever
Match.

1t is agreed today among wrestling
fans Of washington that the match
which John Kilonis wen from Joe Tur-
ncr last night was the most scientific
and hest contested exhibition in which
thr local sta has featured.
Winning the arst fall in twenty eight
minutes, Turner met the fierce attack
of his Greek opponent in a manner that
left no doubt in the minds Of the spec
tators as to his ability as a wrestler.
The Greek experienced some difficulty
in gaining the second bout over the
Washingtonian, one minute less than
an hour being required to pin Joe S
shoulders to the mat.
During this struggle the wrestlers

But thirty-four minutes had elapsed in

meeting between these middleEeights
will be arranged in the near future.
