CINCINNATI MAY
 TRANSFER OPENING GAME TO PHILADELPHIA

It may be necessary to shift the opening series scheduled between the Reds and Pirates from Cincinnati to Pittsburgh; as Redland Field,. the home of Garry Herrmann's outfit, is under several feet of water Presi- dent Lynch said yesterday it is pos sible these games will be played in Cincinnati but he feared it will be necessary to shift them to Pitts burgh.
 Lynch has received a, letter from Herrmann. which took almost a week bosa get here. EIerrnnannz writes:
 ''One of the worst catastrophes that has ever visited this country has de- vastated the entire Ohio Valley. It was a frightful calamity, and the full loss of life and property will never be known
 The Reds have been ordered to stay in the South until two days before the opening of the season. Tinker has taken them to. Savannah, Ga The games scheduled with Washington, Boston and Detroit of the American League in Cincinnati have all been called off.

MATTY DEFEATS NORFOLK EATERS
 BUT IS HIT HARD

Norfolk, Va, April 4-The fifteenth consecutive victory of the Giant Reg ulars was recorded yesterday and at the expense of the Norfolk Virginia League club. The Tars began with much vim and plucked three runs in the first inning, but when the final summing up was ready they were beaten by a score of 10 to 4. They scored three runs in the first inning, when MathewSon was pitching. There were fumb1es on the first two battere. then Shrader, the. local first base picket, thunpAd home run over the center field fence
 Although Matty pitched a whole game against Birmingham on Monday and pitched nine more innings in Knoxville Wednesday, he was on the mound when yesterdays contest be- gan. It may be that McGraw just wanted to display him because he once played ball here Anyway, Matty didn't overawe the Tars so that any body could notice it. although two of the runs off him weren't his fault.
 Leon Ames tied the Norfolk batters into knots, fanning nine. He did "a Ane bit of pitching in the third in- ming, when with three on bases and nobody out he prevented a run. Mer- l1le made a pair Of wild heaves in the eighth inning, and therefrom the Tars extracted their one run from Ames.

DREW WON'T RUN
 IN HARVARD MEET
Springfield Star Will Do Little
 Sprinting This Spring

Springfield, April 4.-Howard P Drew, the crack sprinter of Spring
 field high school, will not compete in the Harvard interscholastic track meet this spring, but. instead, will run in the Dartmouth games.
 Drew is going to work as little as possible this season, and will not do any severe training unless the cornpe- tition he meets warrants arduous preparation.
 E'I shall do only enough running to keep me in shape" said Drew. ''I York April Il and at one in Brook lyn the following night. April 16 I will run in Paterson, and I expect that will be all the competition. I will en- gage in until the interscholastic meets.
 T understand that the Harvard. Yale and Dartmouth interscholastics will all be run on the same day. In that case shall run at the Dart mouth meet. I am planning to run at the Amherst meet, and will also compete at the Colgate meeting. These three will probably. constitute my work this spring.
 T am going to take things easy to have another chance at an Olympic. The injured tendon which put me out shape but intend ito take no chances with 1t.s Aftef another O4yn1r54c it won't matter so much.''
 Asked about the reports that he might turn professional, Drew said: Not a chance. I would be foolish to forfeit my amateur standing at this stage of the game. Mike Murphy gave me all kinds of opportunities to take up the professional game when I was in Sweden last year. Mike did not urge me to turn pro. but he told me that if I cared to he would see that I got the necessary backing and would himself take me on a tour through Germany, France and Eng land But I couldn't see it.''
 Drew will graduate from Spring field high school next June. He will not re-enter Springfield Y. M. c. A. college, as he is seriously considering going to Lincoln college in Philadel- phia.

ATTELL DEFEATS
 WALSH IN CLEVER
 BOUT IN NEW YORK

It was a new little romp that Abe AttelI put Jimmy Walsh over last night at the Forty-fourth street club, New York. Jimmy was outboxed, but outside of; a. slight bruise over his right, eye, he fared little the worse for the lesson It.. was anything but a hair-raising& affair, and only once in the ten rounds did the crowd appear to take any interest, and that was in the seventh, when -Attell slowed up a bit to allow: Walsh to land some nasty rights, followed by a dozen sta'bs. E.A
 Attell looked well enough to go a short route with anyone his weight. He had a fair amount of speed and was willing to take a light punch to sneak a few rippers to the body. He rocked Jimmy twice during the go with rights, but the latter has a pair of good legs and put them to good use when danger Ioomed up. It was a fairly good boxing match, and that let it out
 WaIsh's seconds claimed a foul in the sixth for Attell thumbing Jimmy's right eye, but it was not allowed. Walsh had all the better of the sev- enth, landing three neat rights and outboxing the foxy Abe in the last beating him to a dozen lefts.

If you have an opportunity at any

used in naval and military services you
may notice that just below the hilt, an

small disk of brass welded into the
blade. The meaning of this brass might

Swords are subjected to very severe
tests before being issued, and this
brass piece indicates that one of the

back until it touched the hilt at the
brass spot. Swords that have success
