S. p. SURVEYORS
IN PINE VALLEY

From a private letter it is learned
that the Southern Pacific surveying
party that is recreating in Nevada
during this pleasant, balmy and brae,
ing winter weather in setting stakes
along the proposed cutoff from Pail
SADIE into southern California has
completed it's work in Nye and Ian
der counties and is now working
through Pine valley in Eureka coun.
The Southern Pacific says it has
no present intention of building this
cutoff into southern California at
this time, but the steady and stick
to-itiveness survey work through
weeks of below zero weather of its
route mapping engineers cause many
skepties in this section to believe
that there will shortly be some new
railroad building through this portion
of Nevada Austin Reveille.

yestigation tour, says the Carson
News. Conway is just recovering
from the effects of an experience
which few men would have lived
through. Conway, in company with
Harry Warren of Mason valley, left
Fallon in an auto for Lovelock and
after being out a short distance
found themselves fighting through
banks of mud. They kept on their
way until night overlook them and
the machine quit. They spent the
night in the machine and after sew
eral hours work in the morning
found they could do nothing with
the machine and that it would be
necessary for one of them to go for
help. Warren, who is a trained ath-
lete, started on foot for Lovelock.
conway was taken i'll and knowing
that Warren would have to walk 80
or % miles before he could get help,
decided to follow along and make
his way as best he could. All the
day and night Conway travelled
through the alkali mud of the Hum
boldt desert, losing the trail made
by Warren, and at last finding him
self wandering into the desert again.
He was faint TO rthe lack of food
and water but kept his nerve. Miles
away he could see a Pickering light
and he made his way toward it.
The Humboldt river was between
him and the light and after consid

How the Big Teams Stack Up
at Opening of the Season.
Some Inside Dope

Connie Mack, of the Athletics, is
the only major league manager who
has been able to plunge into spring
training with no worry over his inner
defense. Philadelphia's infield is as
close to perfection as anything that
has been flashed across the profess
sional baseball span. Even MeGraw
is bit uncertain as to the final ar
ray of the champion Giants, while a
couple of the Red Sox fnfielders are
questionable cutters.
McGraw's infield did not just suit
him last season, despite the runaway
race he made in the National league.
The team staggered through the cam
paign well enough, but in the cele-
brated worlds series-the real test
& few things transDired that set the
fans to thinking anyhow. In the
worlds series and indeed in the final
stages of the season both Merkle
and Fletcher fell Gown badly. Merkle
played very erratically the last, six
weeks and then gummed the series by
failing to try for an easy pop: foul

concluding contest of the annual

baseball follower in the country knows
how, few years ago, Cobb was a

pitcher. White knew Cobb had a

of faithful hitting against certain

his weakness and White can trick
Cobb no more. When other players

WALTER G. SMITH WILL

Among the numerous letters re-

from Walter G. Smith, who is at pres

Athletics Have The Best

Graw himself says that Fletcher
might never have gained regular
berth in 1912 but for the death of
Skaters mother, which called that
sterling performer away at a time
when he was playing in superb form.
Red Sex Problem.
The iniield OF the Boston Red Sox
was all that could be desired in 1912
but it is questionable if it can hold
together another year. Yerkes was
carried along by Heine Wagner, who
had his best major league season.
Wagner has been playing for many
years and capnot possibly improve.
Indeed it would not be surprising If
he does not start to go back. How
he has ever escaped injury so far is
a mystery for he blocks in a way
that is decidedly dangerous to him.
Once let him get cut down badly and
it may ruin him for he is no longer
a youngster who can recuperate rap
idly. Jake Stahl is a rafting good
first baseman, but he, too, is begin
ming to feel the joust with Time. The
double responsibilities of manager
ard player took a lot out of him last
year This spring he is schooling an
understudy in ithe hope of retiring to
the bench. Larry Gardiner, at third,

there are some mighty good third
baseman in "Home-Run" Baker, Ed

Lord must now be considered an out
fielder. r.. .-.- ...- 49,.
Let us briefly size up the two major
league situations. The Cubs have to
fiji the gap caused by the loss of Joe
Tinker The latter will have to prove
lis value as a playing manager at
short for the Reds. Brooklyn has to
-builG UP about the keystone, while
the Phillies are so beset that they
are thinking of yanking Sherwood
Magee in 10 first base. The Quakers
are bit up in the air at third, too,
where there is considerable uncer-
tainty about Hans Lobert regaining
lis old-tinle form. The Pirates have
been looking for first baseman for
years. Boston has only one infielG
surety, Sweeney at second. While the
Cardinals have to do lot OF
strengthening to figure in Che hunt.
Hal Chase is the only approved in
fielder OH the New York Americans,
unless Frank Chance is able to play,
IN which case Chase will have to be
remade into a second sackeT. Detroit
has nobody but Bush at sfOrtstop.
Washington lacks 8 competent sec
