VOL REGULARS TURN ON
SCRUBS AND WALL0P 'EM

NASHVILLE. TENN, March 10
Like the justly celebrated downtrodden
worm. the Vol regulars turned on the
scrub team yesterday and walloped the
very life out of them. The worst part
of it all was that Lefty" Williams, the
star hurler, was the fellow who re
ceived the drubbing, after he had held
the first squad hitless yesterday for
three innings. But the blame couldn't
be laid on "Lefty's" narrow shoulders
for he dished the same fancy article Of
hinging that he served upon the Irish
holiday, and looks mighty good to Bill
Schwartz. His support was cracked
all to pieces. with a gang of rookie
pitchers holding down the infeld jobs
and four runs clattered across the plate
the first inning while "Lefty's" assist
ants were kicking the ball all over the
lot.

PITCHERS GET STIFF WORKOUT THIS WEEK

over and over again. And they
learn them"
Bill Smith doesn't deny. that this
diagnosis is mighty near the truth.
The old fox doesn't talk much
about his signals. He's as secre-
tive about them as a dog with too
much bone-and he likes to go off
and bury them. He will not dis
cuss signals with anybody. But
he's an awful bug about them, and
he has worked out some of the
cleverest schemes ever used in this
league. Any time a team gets wise
to Bills signals it has Second
sight and considerable of it.
You can bet one thing though
Bill will have them all on this
afternoon-and with plenty Of
chances to get men on bases they
will be in use right along.
IF Bill sticks to his original pur-
pose of lending the Fort Nc
Phersonites a battery for to-day's
game, they will doubtless be able
to make it moderately interesting
for Smiths men.
IF the weather is good and all the
practice games of the week can
be played, Bill Smith will give his
pitchers a big tryout. His plan is
now to use but two pitchers in
each game this week, instead of
three. Here's his list:
To-day against the Soldiers
Becker and Brady.
Thursday against the Soldiers)
Herring and Hartner.
Friday against Boston)-Price
and Weaver.
Saturday against BOSTON,
Pitchers not definitely decided on.
No doubt Musser will be one Of
them.
The fact that Smith has picked
Price and Weaver to open against
the Braves is an indication that he
believes these men are in the best
condition of any of the squad
And, in fact, they no doubt are.

1t must be that Manager

Not content with having to keep

cho or a cavorting cayuse-Jones
is reaching out in all directions for
top-notch talent.
He has placed his hand on Jack
Lester, of Gle Elum, a Tommy
Burns castof, and Willie Hoppe, of
San Francisco. He has secured
options on big Jim Jeffries and Bon
McAllister, the Olympic Club ex-
amateur, and the roundup has
barely begun.
He plans to have an aggregation
of world heaters of assorted sizes
and by the time he fills in all the
gaps between Adj Wolgast and JEFF

He was too full of his subject.
The point Jones is most buzzed
about at present is his recent an

championship belt.
Here's the thing in a nutshell"

to go ahead and make whatever
announcement saw fit, the under
standing being that l was to act
as his manager If any matches
were arranged He said he felt so
good that he believed he could be

If necessary, but, of course, there
will be no such hurry as that. He
will keep right along with his prep
aration and II he continues to i'm
prove as he has done in the short
time he has been training he will
have something of a business-like
nature to give out about four
months from now"
Ambitions Bring Ridieule.
So far Jeffries newly aroused
ambitions have excited nothing but
ridicule. The relief exists in some
quarters that he is eager to patch
himself up sufficiently to get in on
one big cleanup. In what purports

again on July 4. Putting the mat
ter in this way has given those
who have been sore at Jeffries ever
since the Reno disaster a chance
to flourish their hammers. They
say sneeringly that he received
something like a cool one hundred
thousand for taking a few of john
sons uppercuts, whereas 10 cents
would have been ample pay for all
the fighting spirit and fighting tai
ent he displayed. From which it
will appear that in talking of "suf-
ficient inducements" at this stage
of the proceedings Jeffries is ven
turing OF very thin ice.
