Washington is going to be the center
for plenty of live baseball news next
spring. The Nationals will report here
on March to go to Charlottesville the
following day under Manager Clark
Griffith's watchful eye The first bunch
will be the pitchers and possibly Bill
Cunningham. who will try to work of
superfiuous flesh before the regular
squad gets down to business.
On March II the rest Of tho squad
will be In this city for a few hours
before taking the train for the Virginia
town. The veterans will be in this
bunch OF diamond stars. and many
stories should come from them as 10
their doings during the winter.
The Toronto International Leaguers

DOLLY GRAY PLANS

Southpaw Twirler Prefers to
Remain on Pacific

Dolly" Gray. sent to Rochester by
the Nationals, may not play ball next
season. He has entered an automobile
business In his home town in Califor.
MIA and is considering quitting the ma.
tional pastime
Il had pretty poor luck In the Ameri-
can League" writes Gray to q friend

before rising to the majors. John Gan
xeli is good manager and I'd get good
treatment from him, know, but I'm
getting tired Of playing ball. anyway,
and may quit II everything continues to
look as good as II does now"
Gray never made good with the Ma
tionals. though touted to the skies when
brought here by Joe Cantillon. He was
the premier southpaw Of the Coast
League when playing with Los Angeles
and undoubtedly he could play with the
Angels again, II he cared to. Last sea-
son he was unusually unfortunate here
and lost many games through the in
ability OF his team mates to make q
hit when II would count. This hard
luck seemed to effect his general play
ing and he grew less efficient as the
season neare dts end.

Six Present Managers
Were Once Catchers

Six of the sixteen big league baseball
managers this year are or have been
catchers. Two Of these were catchefs
at one time, but have played other
positions since and are more closely
associated with their subsequent posi-.
tons. Still they have been catchers
and six out OF sixteen is a pretty big
proportion. big enough to make back
stops predominant by q wide margin
among the managers. The position as

the worlds champions Of the last two
years, the Athletics, have an ex-catch-
