HILLTOP BASEBALL
To Start TUESDAY
Coach Dick Harley Expected Tonight
When He will Make Known
His Plans.

Manager Harrington, of the George
town baseball team, telegraphed Dick
Harley, the former professional. who
has been selected to coach the Hilltop
pers this spring, to be on hand next
Tuesday, when it is planned to start
Baseball practice.
Just what are Harley's ideas on spring
training nobody seems to know 1t is
believed that If the weather holds warm
and fair. the West End battery candi-
dates will work out Of doors. as the
athletic field is said to be in fine con-
dition.
1t Is also just possible that Coach Har-
ley may favor indoor practice and order
his men TO the gymnasium. as Manager

the Y. NJ. c. 4.
Harley is expected either tonight or
tomorrow. when his plans will be re-
vealed and the candidates ordered to re-
port
The majority OF Georgetowp's big
games are scheduled early in the spring.
therefore II is necessary to get away to
an early start. Capt. Fury hopes to
have a well trained team on the field to
meet the Washington club at National
Park on March q. He Is after revenge
for the licking handed out by the pro-
fessionals last spring.
Baseball material at Georgetown is said
to be first-class. and under a smart coach
like Harley, a representative nine will
doubtless be turned out.

A good story is told on how Hans
Wagner tor1nented Schoolmaster Sam
I.eever many years ago in pool room
at Little Rock. There were races at
Renning. and in those days Honus al
WAYS liked to place small bets on the
ponies and Lever also was watching
the board for the bargains.
"TollEetter in the third race looks good
to me- said Honus, pointing to a
name on the board. He won for me
nne day at Latouia.'
Sam strained his eyes looking over the
field against Tollgetter.
But continued Honus. that was in

mile and an eighth"
Leever began to ponder seriously over
the proposition, and Honus finally broke
the quiet spell by asking:
How many eighths in mile, SAM"
Honus never batted an eye, and Sam
thought he meant II.
This incident recalled a little game of
draw in which Deacon Philippe sprung
l similar one on Claude Ritchey.
They were playing on a train. Ritchey
was sitting on a suit case in the aisle
and was rather uncomfortable. Besides
the cards were not coming to him. In
one hand there was spirited betting be-
tween Philippe and Ritchey. The other
FOUR players had dropped out. Finally
Philippe called.
What have you got?" asked Phil.
-Four jacks" exclaimed Ritchey. pre-
pairing to spread his hand on the board.
What next?'' calmly asked Phil ex-
asling a big cloud from his meerschaum.
'Why-a-Tve got a king next ex-
claimed Claude, with some excitement.

swered Phil, throwing away his hand.
With show of relief Ritchey raked
