NO SPOT EiKE BERMUDA,
 DECLARES ARTHUR IRWIN.
Wanted the Hiuhianeiers 10 Go to Hanaflten-F4artferd City Leasners First Team to Invade the Island.

Although big league managers and scouts are always looking out of the best there is in the way of training grounds as well as players. 1t remain ed for a Hartford amateur outfit to discover the superior qualities of Bez> muda as a place for spring workouts. Now a couple of major league clubs and one in the Internationa1 circuit have about decided to go there this year. Harry N. Anderson's All Stars. picked from the Hartford Amateur league, were the first to play an tn- ternational series in the British ooi- ony. The trip was made last March. Shortly afterward the Jersey City h. ternationa1 Ieaguers went there. A few days ago Arthur Irwin. the famous scout, now business manager of the isle of lilies to look over the ground.
 Irwin got busy right after his ar rival in Hamilton, visited the cricket grounds, which the Jersey City team preprietors to see what they could do in taking care of the New York base ball party, should the latter decide to go there. The cricket grounds are and provide room enough for two teams to train on. They are green and level, and Irwin says that the turf and the climate-what he has seen of the latter-are better for trining results than any place in the south in the United States.
 Weather is Perfect.
 The cricket field has a commodius clubhouse, equipped with baths and the weather right now is suitable for baseball, mild and warm.
 Of course the arrangemenths to bring the New York team were sub ject to the approval of Manager Chance It is planned to ship the pitchers down on Feb. f5 and the rest of the squad on Feb. 2S.
 The return will be made on April 2. The Highlanders are to play in Jersey City on April and 6, and in Newark on April and 8. They are not likely to play any other exhibition games in Bermuda with the Jersey SI1eeters in case the latter train there again. The schedule in all probability will provide that the Highlanders open the pennant season in Washington, the date as is known, being April 10. It is their turn to open in Washington.
 Doc Barrett Strong for It.
 No less enthusiastic over Bermuda than Irwin is Doc Barrett, the train CT. The Doc, by teh way, Is to be with the Highlanders steadily from Feb 15 to Oct. 1. He has obtained leave of absence from Williams college for that period for the next two years. With the thermometer at 68. the Doe is wearing in Hamilton what he calls his "40 love pants, the same being his tennis hannelS."
 '1An ideal place to train,' he declares. "Tf this is a sample of the weather. Why you cut your pitchers loose here, if necessary, without being afraid Of bad break in the weather to stiffen LID their arms. If it's like this in March don't see how the place could be beaten
 sTve been going south for thirty three years, says Irwin, land never have seen anything that looks as good all around as the Bermuda pFoposi- tion.''

L'HEUREUX FAVORED
 FOR TRINITY COACH
Jewett City Boy Expected to Lead the
 1913 Baseball Team.

Alfred J. L'Heureux of Jewett City, Q member of the senior class at Trin- ity and twice chosen captain of the baseball team, is perhaps the strongest candidate for the position of coach of the Trinity baseball team this spring and although he has not as yet been formally approved for the position as coach by the athletic advisory board he will probably assume inc reins of government over the baseball squad when the first call for candidates is issued in the spring.
 The problem of the baseball coach has long been 8, serious one at Trinity for frequently the squad has had to go through part of a season without one. l. K Hamilton. treasurer of the athletic association, thinks that a man who is on the inside can do more with the fellows and get better results, and at the same time if the coach is con uected with the institution he is more likely to get players to come to col 7ege, while the professional coach busies himself only a few weeks in the year with the material that he has at hand

 UNDER FIELDER JONES.
Chicago Americans Weren't Fenc Busters, But He Led Them to tn Championship Just the Same.


 When the fans think of Fielder Jones they think of the manager of the "hitIess wonders of the American league-the Chicago White Sox, which won @ worlds championship from Frank Chances Cubs. Or, if they may know him as president of the Northwestern league and an Oregon lumber king. Fielder Jones is con sfdered the wealthiest ex-ball player living He made d fortune in base ball, because Charley Comiskey be- Iieves in paying men who deliver the goods, and Jones invested wisely, so that he was able to refuse an offer league club. He'd have taken the offer if the owner had agreed to sell him a large block of the club stock
 But who remembers Fielder A. Jones as the work of Ned Hanlon. daddy of pennant winning managers? Fielder Jones was a good ball player when he broke into the majors in 1898, with Brooklyn, Hanlon made him q better one. He brought out of the youngster everything he pos sessed.
 Lived Up to Name.
 Fielder Jones lived up to his name He was a fielder of the Jimmy Mo Asher and Walter Brodfe type And that's the last word in baseball He had everything that goes to make up a ball player, gentleman and a great leader. He was fast, could hit, and his fielding was marvellous.
 When Jones quit to enter the lunl- Der business in 1908, baseball lost an idol Comisl1ey, it is said. handed Jones a blank, signed contract and told him to name his own figure to lead the team, but the Old Roman re- fused to part with stock. so Fielder, like Bill Jange quit

 Jumped Brooklyn.


 In 1889 Brooklyn won the pennant and repeated in 1900. In '99 Jones. in s5 games, fielded .946 and batted .2S6; in 1900 he felded .960 and bat ted 1909 for 36 games. Jones saw a fat contract when the American league began raiding the National in 1901, and Jumped to the Johnson or ganization. He went to Chicago and Chicago won the pennant that year. In 133 games Fielder batted 1925. He also scored 119 runs a little less than a run per game. He fie1ded 1928.
 In 1906 Jones was manager of the White Sox He won the American league pennant and did the unexpect- ed when he led the Sox to victory over the Cubs, in the worlds series.
 That year Jones led all league out ffelders, with an average of .9S8 for IA games and hit but .230. Winning there was in it for player manager, and he turned his attention to the lumber business.
 Jones Record.
 As records stand, Jones holds sec ond place among all fielders, with his 1888 average in 1903 and 1908. Harry Bay in 1904 topped him by two points.
 Jones refuses to name the greatest Ed. Walsh the greatest of pitchers. And those who appreciate the work the Big Moose" had done for the sox can realize how Jones feels.
 Jones began his career at Bling hamton. N. Y, in 1895. He was with Springfield next, and with Brooklyn from 1896 to 1900. From 9101 to 1908 he was with the White SoX. This is his baseball career of fouteen years. He was born at Shingle House, Penn, which has been on the map ever since its favorite son downed the cubs. He was born August 13, 1871,
