AUSTRALIAN BASEBALL TEAM,
Originally a Cricket Team, Wants to
Play Against Big Leagues.

New York, Sept. 24.-Captain
Gregory of the Australian cricket
team. which is now on its way to this
country, has written to the New York
managers of the coming international
cricket matches. declaring that his
team is also proficient in baseball and
proposing game with a picked team
from the New York and Brooklyn big
league players.
my team he said. lis the greatest
Baseball aggregation in Australia. We
play baseball for practice in running
and fielding and are confident of be-
ing able to give a good account of
ourselves against the best nine that
YOU can produce.
The novelty in his suggestion, how
ever, lies in Captain Gregory's idea
that both teams shall use cricket bats
playing the whole game of baseball
under the national rules with the ex-
ception that the baseball players shall
be allowed TO use their gloves, as is
usual with them, while the cricketers,
as is customary with them, viii play
with bare hands.
