COMPL LAINOF POOR
GROUNDS AT NAVY
West Point Players Feel Uncertain Because of Unduat-
ed Surface of Annapolis Diamond-Vstors Said
to Have Faster Team.

! ANNAPOLIS, Md, June 1.-While 1t
is generally admitted that as a sporting
proposition, are odds are heavily in
favor of the Military Academy to win
the annual baseball game against the
Naval Academy here this afternoon, an
element of uncertainty Is given to the
contest on account of the character of
the field upon which the game will be
played. The visitors from West Point
practiced on the local grounds yester-
day morning and afternoon, and there
were many complaints on account of
the hardness of the ground. which is
totally different from the turf upon
which the Cadets have been used to
play upon at home.
One of the players said today that
the quick and uncertain bounding Of
the ball from the hard, unlevel surface,
made playing extremely difficult. and
made the infielders uncertain all the
time.
1t is conceded. however, that the WIS.,
itors have the faster team in the field,
and probably the heavier batting ag-
gregation.
Coach Breckenridge has decided to use
Seibert, his left-handed twirler. on the
morning, 1t was a toss-up between Sell
bert and Vinson. The latter has had
more work this season, and is somewhat
steadier, but Seibert Is capable OF a
more brilliant performance, and 1t is
admitted that some unusual pitching
will be necessary in order to defeat the
boys from the Hudson.
Coach Sammy Strang will use Hyatt.
the veteran of four other contests
against the Navy. Hyatt appears to-
day for the last time in an athletic
contest between the services. Owing o
change In the course at West Point
1t has been possible for him to play in
FIVE games against the Navy. Year
1908 was his frst appearance. and his
team was badly beaten. Since then he
has pitched his nine to victory three
times, and this afternoon will be his
farewell performance.
AS announced by coaches Breckinridge
and Strang, the batting order Of the
mines will be:

BASEBALL IS NOT
FASTER TODAY THAN
25 SEASONS AGO
Human Brains and Limbs
No Better Now-Pitching
Has Not Improved.
BY JOHN M. WARD.
president of Boston National Club.

I've had a chance to study the So
called modern game, and l am now in
a position to say that baseball of the
present day isn't a bit faster or more in
tricate than 1t was twenty-five years
ago. That is because human heads and
limbs are no better than before. 1 used
to hear lot about inside ball. but find
that old methods still prevail The
pitching doesn't show any improvement
over that of former days. The batting
isn't as heavy. and the fielding is just
the same. Players who come fresh
from the minor leagues have to be
taught how to measure UP TO the re-
quirements, and some of the youngsters
are slow to learn. Running major
league team isn't a snap. The business
is difficult to handle. man must be
born and brought up in baseball at
mosphere to be a successful manager.
It's fact that since l became president
Of the Boston club I've been awake
nights trying to figure out a winning
combination. 1t isn't any fun, / can
assure you. - Why, I've lost fifteen
pounds since the season opened We
are trying hard to land new material.
! and we've got a dozen scouts on the
lookout. l am keeping their names Sc
cret because they can get better results.

Melton Is Hero of
St. Johns Victory

ANNAPOLIS, June 1.-Melton, the
aggressive little catcher of the st.
Johns baseball team, is today being
given much praise for sticking
through the fourteen innings with
split hand in the game which his team
won from Washington College by to 1.
During the Ave extra innings both
teams had chances to put across the
winning tally, but failed. Besides his
clever catching and pegging to the
bases, Melton singled, stole second,
went to third on Browns error, and
scored the winning run on Clark's error.
