SOLVAY HAS A WINNER;

The Solvay Athletic club has de-
cided 10 put baseball team in the
field to represent them in the Manu-
facturers' league this season. This
club has heretofore played independ-
ent ball and scheduled games only
with the higher class teams. Last
year, owing to these better teams all
being connected with the Border, City
and Manufacturing leagues, the Sol
val experienced much difficulty In Sc
curing hrst-rate attractions, and for
this reason il was thought advisable
to enter the Manufacturers league
this year. The Solvay athletic field is
without exception the best grass dia-
mond in the city, and with such teams
a. the Burroughs. Packard. R.-C.-H.,
Studebaker, Timken, Hupp and Metal
Products teams for opponents. the
home team expect to treat the patrons
and supporters of the club 10 very
fine grade of sport.
Tomorrow the opening game will be
played with the ''Timken club" who
have a very strong lineup and will
give the Solvay boys hard game.

Robert l.. Lowe, former Tiger in
fielder and one OF the greatest players
in baseball, has given up scouting for
the Tigers and expects TO devote his
time this summer to real estate.
Lowe was for several years the
dean Of the Tiger scouts, but this
winter he announced that the incon-
venience of travel and desire to be
at home was tempting him to quit
scouting.
When II came to time when a
decision was necessary. he decided
to remain In Detroit and devote his
time to his real estate operations.

Yesterday Sam failed TO get the bal
out OF the infield. although he scored
after he did get on through keating
error in the first inning.
The most definite thing that has
been done towards the trading OF
Hal Chase to the Tigers was the con
ference between President Navin OF
the Tigers and Manager Chance OF
the Yankees shortly before the game
yesterday.
President Navin admitted that the
question of the Tigers obtaining
Chase was brought up but he said
that Chance informed him that he
wanted a first baseman or at least
some infielders In exchange for Hal.
This Immediately let the Tigers
out for they are looking for first
basemen themselves and they
haven't any infielders that they can
let go for Hal.
Chase cannot be bought except
for a huge fortune. Finished ball

Although Claude Derrick has been
playing good baseball at shortstop
for the Yankees while here, there
seems to be no reason that the Tt
gers should be sorry for the deal they
made in getting rid Of him.
The Tigers drafted Derrick from
