CHAPMAN RUMoR UNFoUNDED.
Letter from GeorEetown Athlete
Signifies His Intention TO Return.

A current rumor at Georgetown that
Eddie Chapman. the versatile track ath-
lete, would not return to school until
next fall was stated to-day to be wholly
without foundation. Chapman has been
suffering a breakdown at his home in
New York since he went to visit his par
ents there last week. In a letter received
from him yesterday, he stated that he
would return to school in another week,
and would probably be ready to start
training within short time after his
return.
Chapman has been recuperating from
one OF the most strenuous track seasons,
in which he ever partook. The much
needed rest should be a great benef1t 20
him for a successful outdoor season.

IT have been trying to take on weight for
the past four years and at last have
succeeded" John Camel, the Rochester
manager, declares emphatically that when
Grif gets ready to try out his third
base recruits, Foster will be the man Sc
1ected to start the season.
Maths and Sheer were excused from
practice to-day, both are suffering from
throat ailments. but at dinner tonight
occupied their accustomed places and said
they felt whole lot better.
Eddie Gsgnier, the former Western
League star, was as lively as a kitten
this afternoon, and the way he shot the
ball aroune in practice gave sufficient
evidence tina: he possesses a dandy whip.
This combined with fielding and hitting,
Will make him close contender for the
much-sought-for third base job.
Walter johnson was initiated into the
mysteries Of basketball this afternoon.
The great pitcher had never tried the
game before and after fifteen minutes
work surprised the onlookers with his
skill Walter would probably make good
as a basketball player II he decided to

visit, watched the boys work out in

for Anniston. Ala, on the O'Clock train.
1t will be remembered that Camel and
McAleer pulled OF the trade last summer
whereby the Nationals obtained Outfielder
MOeller and Infielders Foster and Spen-
