Mcfarland and Hogan Ready for
Scrap Tuesday NIGHT.

NEW YORK. March 2-Upon his ar
rival here today from Cleveland. Packy
Mcfarland, the crack Chicago light
weight, went direct to the Mott Haven
clubhouse where he will put the finishing
touches upon his training for his ten
round bout with 'One-Kound" Hogan Of
California at the Fairmont Athletic Club
Tuesday night. Packys knockout VIC
tory over Tommy Devlin at Cleveland
this week shows that he Is fit, and that
Hogan will have to watch him or he will
find that his name fits him with the re-
verse English.
"One-Round'' is credited with being the
original knockout kid himself. but he
lacks the finesse of theskillful Chicago
lad.
Hogan has been training like beaver
at Rye Beach for several weeks and is in
tiptop shape. He declared today that if
he lost in his fight against Packy it would
be more the result of entertaining than
undertaking.

would be highly satisfactory. for it would
be the best showing the team has ever
made in the American League.
That is the trouble With team which
1t takes so much to overcome the lead
that others have gained. But once a
team gets over the 800 mark in the per-
centage the step forward is not near SO
difficult. Last year the team lost twen-
ty-six more games than it won. That is
quite margin. and it is easily figured
how much of an Improvement 1t would
require in the team to overcome this
handicap. Yet it is possible. Take
Johnson's work last season. for instance.
weeks of the season and lost games
which ordinarily he would have won easily.
Then he lost other games because his
team was weak with the bat. The other
fifth has improved his team in this respect
better results may be attained
One effect that the leaving of Street
will have will be to prove whether Henry
and Ainsmith. the two young catchers,
can held their own with additional re-
sponsibility on their shoulders. II they
are of the right sort the fact that they
realize that the bulk of the work will fall
on their shoulders will bring forth their
best efforts Both are confident that
they will deliver. The youngsters feel
that with the veteran out of the way
they will get a chance to work regularly
and that this will give them a chance
to show to their best advantage. But
Griffith does not propose to allow Will
liams to warm the bench. He, too, will
get his share of work. Summer before
last Griffith made three trips to Buffalo
to watch Williams catch.
He liked him SO we'll that he had made
up his mind to buy him for his Cincin-
natl team, when John I. Taylor Of Bos-
ton stole march on him and bought
negotiations. 1t is because Griffith has
seen Williams work that he was anxious
to secure him in. the et-knight deal.
and, having him. he does not propose to
allow him to be idle. So that the chances
are all three of the Nationals catchers
will be kept busy next season.
