YALE PITCHERS
 STRONG IN 1914

Judging from the material left from last seasons baseball team. and the results of the fall practice, Yale can be considered to have shade the better of Harvard and Princeton, particularly in the pitching department. Princeton appears YaIe's most dangerous rival owing to her excellent material from last years championship freshmen team Princeton and Yale have each lost three players and Harvard four.
 The men of last years university team who have graduated are Riddel1. first base; Schoheld, left field; and Burdett, catcher Of these Riddell aD- pears to be the greatest loss. EIoveys Swfhart, and Hoover. are trying for the position. It is possible that Pumpelly will be moved from right field and tried at first base If FunpeHy comes to first then there will be two Vacau- cies in the outf1eld. Faleey, Hanes, O5-

AUTUMN BASEBALL


 F Big Ed Walsh. in a letter to the Chicago American league club. writes that he is in shape to start the train ing grind at once, having spent most of the time since he quit the diamond hunting in New England. His arm, which was treated by Bonesetter Reese in Youngstown, O., shortly be- fore the close of the 1913 season, has mt cauced him the slightest trouble, and it's Walsh's opinion that he will be able to utilize his great speed with out any harmful results, except to the opposition, when called to arms next spring.
 Padded attendance figures in the International league are forbidden Managers have been cautioned to giVd out correct statistics.
 A Pittsburgh writer says Joe Tinker is passing out as a. shortstop. He does not want him for the Pirates. The same man wants Miller kept on first base, declaring Miller the "only real Pittsburgh first basenian since the days of Kitty BransfieId.'

 According to Manager Dooin of the Philadelphia Nationals, this is going to be quiet winter, as far base ball trades are concerned. He says all Of the managers are inclined to hold their present players.
 During the 1913 campaign only one team was able to make a triple play in the Western league. Des Moires, the fielding leader, accomplished the feat. Sioux City, which was last in fielding, pulled the greatest number of. double plays, s4 Des Moines nf 0R1 .SinTJ3E City .948.
 Ed Lafitte, who cost the Detroit club a fancy sum a few seasons ago, is slipping his hold on the Providence club and the chances are when the 1914 season opens the dentist-pitcher will find himself with a different team. Lafitte, during the early part of the 1913 season, was the most in effective pitcher on the Providence club. He lost consistently and in a majority of cases by one-sided scores. In the closing months he caught his balance and pitched pretty fair bah. But the city had soured on him and Manager Bill Donovan has been ap- i1proached by the Buffalo club for his transfer.
 l Carl Zarnloch,, one of Detroit's s young pitchers last season says his l d ness which was noticeable in the i muscles of the elbow and shoulder ] last fall has disappeared and Zam- ] 1och promises to show sufficient skill with Providence next spring to war i, rant his recall to Detroit. Zam1och h will coach a California baseball team before reporting to Manager Bill Don ] ovan in the spring.
 Miller Huggins of the Cardinals has a unique case his hands, which caused lot of mirth among the Ma tionaI league men. He drafted Ken meth Nash from Waterbury. Kenneth is 8 Brown University boy and was once a Nap. He is also nembe of the Massachusetts legislature Hug gins informed him he must report or the training trip, but Kenneth says he can't until the luegislature adjourns Huggins wrotes The legislature SC hang, you go on the St. Louis train ing trip.'

 Especial to the Farmer-)
 New York, Dec. 1S-I am not in clined to agree with those critics who consigned both Jess Willard anu C0i Morris to the scrap heap after ther miserable exhibition of last week Al least l do not agree with them with regard to Willard Morris case, l Will admit, looks rather discourag1ng, put like our friend Doc Munyon De- Heve there is hope for Willard
 Willard is more or less of puzzle F7Je has a great deal more knowledge tof the game than Morris, yet ne gan <seeu to work up enough interest lh khis job to fight as if he was Tn .tsar,- e<aI- nest Only at times would ne sho" flashes of the ability he possesses
 That he defeated Morris no one who saw the contest can doupt 1hdI he could have put Carl out had ne TOT lowed up his numerous advantages E1ncars bevond dispute. Whenever fTess cut loose he showed he knows Ehow to deliver a punch-SofneIhlhs Morris does not and probapIy never vriIl-also that he can hit quite as Sard as snv other white heavy s-Vxeieht in the game, not except1ng tAie AvaIIopins< .'Gunboat." For he shook 1bie Carl several times and had ne seen ft to go on about his business there is little doubt he would nave 7 won with a clean knockout Carl was in bad shape several times during N0-S -@- -
 Morris looked good in his battle <xith ..Gunboat'' Smith although ne @lost that bout on a foul He lookeo Every bad against Willard He en- tered the ring in worried state ana this was not improved when he found that his naulfng methods were or hl. tla avail Against the -'sGunb oat Morris realized that his great pulk and strength were of ineStimable ad- vantage to him and that if he could avoid the "Gunner's pile-driving right ~for a few rounds his chances for grad E4IaIIv wearing down and tiring out his tfr,rS1or,sot would give him a, splendid chance tosrin- With a, fifty pound null in the weight a fighter is i'm bued with much more confidence than when opposed to a man of pfact1calIy h.s own weight and build
 believe I could take "Gunboat' smith in hand and make him a sure winner over Morris But Smith would have to adopt an entirely new system of fighting As gaited at present his only chance of beating Morris would lie in his luck in getting deadly punch across before the big fellow had tired him out. But ] would not be so sure of making the s.Gunboat'' beat a fellow like Willard smith fought Morris like the Ver1est sucker- He never side-stepped the giant and in every clinch Morris pulled and mau1ed him until his strength was gone. and it looked q fortunate thing for the Gunner" that Referee Joh caught Carl in the act of fouIine and stopped the bout Smith was so tired that he didn't ap- pear to have an ounce of fight left ir his body.
 To get back to Willard. As badly as he fought he proved beyond al uuestion that he can beat Morris And there are few white heavies who car say as much. If Manager Tom Jones succeeds in injecting a little more fighting spirit into his big charge it is doubtful if there is. a. man in the game white or black, who will take f,fS T77ea sure

 Arthur Pelky and "Gunboat'' Smith are matched for New Years Day. This bout will have considerable bearing on the heavyweight situation as Smith is popularly regarded. as the secIasss of the bunch while Pelky since the accidental win over Luther McCarty has gone up several pegs in The estimation of the sports at large. Only here in the East where Arthur was seen at his worst is there evil dence of popular unbelief in his prow- ess- - . sts.
 On all form Smith should win easi- Iy- But then Tommy Burns has seen the .Gunboat'' in action and if Pe1ky Is an apt pupil the foxy Thomas will have him -.hepped'' to the, 'fGunner's'' methods. Burns, I believe, saw Smith box Willard out on the Coast and the fact that he sought the match for his man woald indicate that he has con- hdence in Pe1ky's ability to defeat the rd-hitting sailor.
 It will not surprise me if under Burns handling. Pelky has developed into a fair sort of lighter. He was an awful joke when boxing in the East, but it must be remembered he was only a novice. Friends of mine who have seen him in training and in 5 exhibitions say he has Improved i'm menseIy in his boxing since Burns took him in charge.
 If Smith fights the same style of battle he showed with Morris, PeIky may win if he's as good as they say We know he can hit hard enough to win with punch and when two such hard hitters come together something g s bound to happen"and not always The expected

Western sport writers are boosting Jimmy C1abby as the daddy of the middIe-Weights because he beat Sailor Petrosky and Frank Logan, two box srs who have never shown their noses In this section of the country.
 We know Clabby to be a pretty classy boy but before passing on his elalm tbs the championship title would like to see him go against George Chip or Frank Klaus, or some one of the real tough one of the East. Only once did Jimmy box in New York and at that time he made a me diocre showing I don't think he has ever met the men regarded in this section as the leaders in the division, among them the pair named above, Jack Dillon, of Indianapolis, and Ed lie McGoorty, the Oshkosh fighter True he once earned a verdict over Mike Gibbons, but at that time Gib- oons had not begun to show his pres snt great form.
