GOOD BERTHS FOR
VETERAN BALL
PLAYERS

When veteran ball players serve
their usefulness there are just two ha-
vens of refuge for them. One Is the
position of scout and the other is that
ct umpire. Provided he has been sue
cessful as ball player he can make
good i'll either capacity, his wide ex-
perience being of grea; service in
either undertaking..
Three of the !. veterans who have
seen their best days on the diamond
Theodore Rreitenstein, William Hart
and Win Kellum-were last year on
the umpIing staff of the Southern
League. = In the Empirical blue Brett
enstein and Hart were quite success
full, while Kellum was lacking in back
hone to show anything like good
work His knowledge of the game
was all right, but his decisions in
close cases lacked in stamina, the
jumps being bit prejudiced by certain
occurrences.
See Stars Come and Co.
Brett, Hart and KeIlum began pitch
ing ball in the young days of the
league and grew up with it. They had
served to see many stars come and
go, yet they continued like the famous
brook The main cause for their long
service was the good condition In
which they kept themselves. ALI re-
allied that the game was their liveli-
hood and they took care of them
selves accordingly. Many players of
the present day believe the managers
airs trying to deprive them CT osme-
thing they are entitled to when or
ders are issued prohibiting dissipa-
ton, when If they but had sense
enough to know 1t means their own
salvation.
Hart a Veteran.
Bill Hart began pitching ball as
early as 1886 and he served right up
to last year. Brett, too, served quite
a career, during which he played with
some of the most famous organiza-
tons that ever won ball game. Kel-
lum probably did not attain so much
fame as his two partners. yet he was
a good hurler in hts day and his in
sight into the fines3 points of the game
was excellent.
Last season was the debutante work
CT the three ex-hurlers and with the
advantage of this training they will be
better prepared to do good work their
next season out. Half the job in UNI
piring is getting next to just how you
must control certain players and not
half so much in the decisions that are
made. Some players will kick on any
decision, no matter whether it is right
or wrong, and to satisfy this class it
takes certain treatment which UNI
pires have to take time to learn.

OFF ON SIERRA

With nine men on his payroll. Guy
w. Green, the Nebraska baseball pro-
meter, sailed for the coast on the
Sierra at noon today The aggrega-
ton is to be billed throughout the
middle west as a team from Hawaii,
rot a Hawaiian team, which will re-
lieve the players from the necessity
of wearing grass skirts and gobbling
poi for the benefit OF the gaping null
titudes.
The only hold-out was c. Moriyama,
who at the last minute found it i'm
possible 20 make the trip, leaving the
team with barely enough men to fill
the positions. II is probable that an
other man or two from here will join
the aggregation later on, according to
Green.
The players making the trip are
equipped with return tickets, and a
casa guarantee has been deposited
here to pay their return expenses
should they call for it.
The following PLAYERS sailed on the
Sierra this morning:
William Desha, Edward Desha,
Alex. Desha, Henry Chillingworth. f.
d. Hamauku, A. Lota, A. Dryer, w.

ROBINSON AND
KAN YEN FOR
Los ANGELES?

From Kanakee, Illinois. comes the
rumor that two members OF the ALI
Chinese team, whose work has been
carefully watched during the main
land trip of the organization, are
likely to catch on with one of the
Coast League teams.
A Kanakee paper has the following
item:
Manager Sam Hop is having some
difficulty in holding Kan Yen and
Foster Robinson, who are wanted by
the Los Angeles team of the Pacific
Coast League"
That Foster Robinson, alias
Aheong, may be in demand on the
coast is quite probable, but that a
class IA league could use Kan Yen
behind the bat Is somewhat doubt
tul. There is no doubt about Kan's
ability as a catcher, and he has been
sticking well of late. and is clean grit
al the. way through. but he Is too
light for backstop in fast company.
He would be taking chances of be-
ing chewed up in every game, when
there was close play at the plate.
However, reports from the Chinese
team saw that Kan Yen is playing the
game of his life, and If he has inn
proved any on.the form he showed
here he must be going an awful pace.
In that event, the handicap of lack
or weight might be overlooked II Is
also possible that he has put on few
pounds on the trip.
