HOWARD HAS
1914 SEALS
LINED Up
Present Team Will Fight for
Pennant, With One or Two
Additional Men
By JOE MURPHY

The fans will not have to walt for
the training season to get line on
the Seals for next season. The team
that is in the field now will be prac-
tically the same as the one that will
represent this city next season. with
a couple OF additional players.
Apparently tho fans are satisfied
with the present combination of toss
ers, as they have been playing the
game In satisfactory manner. 1t is
the general belief Howard would
have had his team up there fighting
for the pennant had he the Same
bunch OF tossers on hand at the
opening of the season as he has now
While 1t seems that the Seals are
destined for second division berth
this year, Howard has made credit
able showing with the club. He
looked to have an awful tough bunch
to start off with He got off to a
poor start and then he started to
climb until he reached second place
and within hailing distance OF first
TEAM BOLsTERED UP
The effort was too much for the
Seals. They had played above their
mark, and then came the crash The
boys started to slide, and they did
not stop until every other club was
passed on the downward course.
Howard realized that he was UP
against 1t, and Magnate Ewing was
also of the same opinion. They start
ed to purchase ball players, which
resulted in the requirement of Chap
pie Charles, Jerry Downs, Mig Clarke,
Lefty Leif1eld, Dutch Schaller and last.
but not least, Jefr Overall.
With these players the weak spots
Of the club were strengthened, and
today the Seals look like future
pennant winning combination. The
club has been particularly effective
against Portland during the last half
been characteristic Of the teams play
ing. When they were expected to do
something the tossers fell down on
their admirers.
Jimmy Johnston was subdued bv
big Harry Ables yesterday and the
fleet footed outfie1der did not have a
chance to break the base stealing
record. He went to the bat on four
occasions, but was unable to get on
the paths. 1t is a safe bet to make
that the first time Johnston reaches
first he will lose no time in trying to
pilfer second.
]
That fellow Corhan can pull of
some of the most remarkable fielding
stunts. He took Bill Lizards ground
er In the second frame behind second
base and threw him out by many
feet. 1t looked like an Impossible
chance, but Roy made It and had
time to spare.
=
Gus Hetling has been playing a
cautious game at third. Any time q
player attempts to steal third, Gus
pays particular attention In avoiding
his spikes. He has been out of the
game so much this season through
injuries that Gus probably figures ii
wise to avoid accidents during the
remaining days Of the season, and be
in good shape for next year.
The Sacs finally landed In second
place yesterday. Two successive
wins over the Tigers gave them that
position. Half q game separates the

with the exception of national

There are SO many entries that the
contests should really be staged over
two days, but with the various other
sporting attractions, this is impos-
sib1e. The next best thing to be done
Is to hold the preliminaries in all
events in the mornings. and this will
leave nothing but the champions Of
the entrants to contest for the finals,
which will begin at o'clock.
When the events start in the after
noon the program will be run of on
set order. and the same order will
be maintained in the morning with
the various trial stunts In both the
track and field events.
The order OF events follows:
Five milo road race, 100 yard dash. $50 yard
