Special to The Washington Herald.

Special to The Washington Herald.
Charlottesville, Va, March 15.-Little
Allan Scheer. the sensational outfielder
of the Central League. last season. a
member of the Youngstown. Ohio. team.
| who is back here again for another trial.
has thus far made a good impression
on Manager Griffith.
Last spring, Scheer was a member of
| the Nationals training camp squad down
here and the day after he arrived was
| stricken with a severe attack of ton
solitis. which clung to him like a puppy
| to a root. and refused to be shaken of
for two weeks or so. consequently when
he did get into togs and joined the squad
on Lambeth field he was in no shape to
do himself justice and Griff sent him
| back to Youngstown, Ohio.
Scheer came here last year touted as a
second baseman, and this position he
played OF the Nationals Yannigans dur
ing the practice games He did not ere
ate very favorable impression on ac-
count of his loose fielding, but looked
pretty good with the stick.
"PIay the OutheId."
When Grir had his final talk with
young Scheer he said to him. Il am sorry
to be forced to send you back to Youngs-
tOWn. OUT you uOu LOON 10 Dt HluSH VI
second baseman. l like your hitting.
however. Now if YOU will take a tip
from me I'd advise that you cut out try
ing to play second base and learn to be
an outfieIder''
Scheer promptly replied. I'm a much
better ball player than 1 have been able
to show you. l shall take your advice
and try the outfield and confidently ex-
pect to be back with some major league
club next season"
When he reported to YOUNGSTOWN
Scheer insisted upon being shifted to the
outfield. playing the center garden patch
and filling the place left vacant by How
ard Shanks when Howard was made a
member of the Nationals.
Scheer is a philosophical little chap. He
is working mighty hard down here to
make good, and in reality looks 30 per
cent better than at any time last spring.
A Heady Fielder.
The fact that Scheer had sense enough
TO follow Griff's advice about shifting
from second base to the outfieId. shows
that the youngster carries a level head
on his shoulders. The former Youngs-
town star now declares that nobody in
the world can get him to play the infield
again
If one game can he taken as an exam
pie young Mr.. Scheer has learned a whole
lot about playing the outfield, has mas
tered the trick of going back after a fly
ball, an uncommon failing among minor
leaguers, for II was due to a beautiful
catch made by Scheer off Hume's bat in
the ninth inning of Saturdays game
against Virginia that the Nationals We're
able to land the big end of the score. The
little fellow turned at the crack of the
bat raced back dozen steps and caught
the flying sphere with arms extended
high over his head.
Scheer is giving the other outfield re-
cruits stiff fight during practice down
here and seems determined to make Grif
keep him.

'LAPORTE choice
FOR SECOND SACK
Work with the Stick in Early
Season Assures French
man the Position.
ERHART LOOKED GOOD
Morgan May Be Given Preference.
Gedeon, the Coast Lacquer,
will Be Carried.

Charlottesville. March 15-Although it
is possibly a bit early to make an pre-
dictions as to who will start the season
at second base for the Nationals indi-
cations point to Frank Laporte. the
veteran, for the reason that Lapor.e
is always at his best with the stick when
the season opens.
Ray Morgan, who covered the key
stone sack during most of the games last
summer. is also showing good form. and
when the time comes for the opening con-
test against New York at National Park,
on April 10. Morgan may possibly be
given the preference, but Laporte would
seem to have the inside track.
Joe Gedeon. the fair haired boy from
the Pacific Coast, is the only rival feared
by both Laporte and Morgan. Joe has
been in poor physical condition the past
week. and this handicap may eliminate
him from the race, but Trainer Martin
is of the opinion that Gedeon will be in
shape for the exhibition games in Wash
ington. and the fans can judge for them
selves to his ability.
Gedeon in Utility Role.
There is every reason to believe that
:iedeon will be carried by the Nationals
throughout the coming season, as utility
intielder. He might be played at second
in case both Laporte and Morgan fall
down, and then he could be shifted to

Mcbride.
Had Zack Erhard remained here in
stead of skipping out. the Columbia Uni
versity boy might have given all the can.
didates stiff rub for he looked like the
makings of i fast ball player. and had
little difficulty in hitting the recruit
pitchers.
Manager Griffith is mum on the subject
OF second base The Old Fox always
keeps his own councils until he makes I'D
his mind to act. and has given no init
nation of whom he proposes to start the
season at second base.
Laporte is rapidly getting into condi-
tiOn. Like the other veterans Frank took
splendid care OF himself during tn,
winter. The same holds true of Ray
Morgan. both of whom are playing great
ball in the practice games down here,
hitting hard and fielding nicely.
Gedeon's illness came at an inoppOrtune
time. for he should have gotten into the
practice games this week. In spite of
this the youngest has shown enough natu-
ra! ability to warrant the prediction On
that he will be carried as utility infelder,
for Grif can easily afford to have all
extra man on the bench.
The weather has been so uncertain the
first two weeks in camp that Grif IL
hoping for a stretch of balmy days in
Washington when his club plays the i'm
pOrtant exhibition games against the
New York Giants Brooklyn DodSers,
Boston Braves. Philies, and other clubs.
His selection for a second baseman will
probably be determined on the form
shown in these contests more than any
thing else. but from the present outlook
Frank Lsporte would seem to be the
leading candidate

Evers clipped a double. When Bridwell

ask Evers how many runs they needed
to even things up. While Evers was
yelling the information back to him he

Knisely sneaked up behind his boss, the
signal was flashed to Richie and the bee

Los Angeles. Cal, March 1.-THE
twentieth-round finish at the Vernon
arena found little Bud Anderson lying
his arms hanging to his sides, knees
bending under him, and blind stare in his
eyes. the Medford youth was through
for the day.
Three feet away stood K. o. Brown.
Swaying would be a better word. as the
New York lad was tottering on two
legs that were barely able to stand his
weight. Dazed by the punishment he
had taken and crazed by the thought of
through swollen eyes and shaking his
wet glove in an uncertain manner, as
though trying to decide which the nine
teen Andersons he would attack.
Had there been ten seconds more to
so. one clean jsb to the chin, and Brown
would have been credited with a knock
out victory.

sound of which could not be heard

Eyton took in the situation with one
fash of his eyes. Even while Fat AZ

had balanced Anderson's helpless condi-
ton with the fact that upon no less than
six occasions Bud had beaten Brown to

Vernon arena-a draw.
A Great Battle.
When Brown staggered to the center
of the ring for the beginning Of the
twentieth and last round, his only pos
sible hope Of winning lay in a Knockout
punch. He had been whipped decisively
during the last nine rounds. but his
wonderful recuperative powers brought
him out for the last stand in better con-
dition than Anderson. who was weak
and unsteady from the terrific pace Of
the battle.
1t was one Of the hardest-fought battles
even seen in a California ring. and the
greatest twentiefh-round finish ever
heard of outside of fiction.
The first and second rounds were even.
Anderson had the better of the third, but
Brown went into the lead in the fourth
and held il until the eleventh. In this
round Anderson gave Brown a trouncing
that almost ended the fight. K. o. was
fioored twice, and in the twelfth Ander-
son had Brown continually on the ropes.
Brown came back strong in the thir-
teenth and it was nip-and-tuck until the
twentieth. when Brown outgamed Ander-
son, but the Medford boys early lead
influenced Referee Eyton to call the af-
fair a draw.
