NEW YORK. March 2s.-Young

counter at the Forty-fourth Street
Club last night. the latter fighting far
below the form he displayed around
these parts year ago There were
no Snockdowns during the bout, but
severe wallops were handed out by

Driscoll took the lead in the third
round and held 1t until the ninth. He
outfought his veteran opponent ana
showed more speed in getting his
punches home. kirlwood was wild
enough, but he fell short with his at
tempts, and was forced to fall into
clinches to save his wind.
Eddie Doyle, the Quaker bantam,
pleased the crowd with his lightning
work against Boob Nelson. Doyle
weighed in at III and gave Nelson
seven pounds. Despite the handicap,
Doyle tiptoed all the way. and gave a
clever exhibition of footwork. This
youngster looks like an able candi-
date for title honors.

John Gallagher the Georgetown

seventh in the Olympic Marathon
run, yesterday sent to Allen Cox,
chairman of the Middle Atlantic AS
ISOLATION of the A, A. u, his eX-
PLANTATION of the request for an eX-
pense account of SIS for participating
in a race in Philadelphia early this
month.
According to the A. A. U. people
Gallagher declared he would not par
ticipate unless allowed this fee, and,
believing il too much, the promoters
of the event filed charges with the
registration committee.
Gallagher now explains that while
he was on the way from Washington
to New York he was approached by
the Philadelphians. He told them that
in order to run for them 1t would be
necessary for him to spend four days
in training in Philadelphia on the
course over which he would run, and
he would require expenses. This they
declined to meet, and then came the
complaint to the amateur union.

SAVANNAH. Ca. March 2s-Bin
Dahlen, manager of the Brooklyn Ma
tional League Club. arrived at Savan-
nah during the night and announced
that his forces would be here by noon
to tackle the Tigers in the first eN-
hibition of the three contests to take
place between the Tigers and bod
gers, who meet twice here and once
at Newark
The Brooklyn team is not scheduled
to return North by boat. as are the
Tigers. Dahlen's men will make the
homeward journey by rail, playing
)ne-night stands on the way.
Dahlen says he has had bad wealth
Ct at Augusta and is sorry that he
cheated Harry Smith out of that
place as training camp when Har-
ry had his eye on Augusta. The
Brooklynites are a husky bunch and
look fit for any sort of sport from
baseball to bull fighting. They are in
better condition than the Tigers, from
all appearances.
Expect an Early Lead.
indications just now are that the
Tigers will get away to a good lead
in the International League race.
After reading reports from the vari-
Gus training camps of International
League clubs, 1t looks as though two
of the strongest contenders last sea-
son, Toronto and Rochester, will be
severely handicapped.
The Shelters are expected to get
away to good start, If they can
keep up their spring performances.
Dunn's Discoveries.
Rumors of the wonderful young
pitchers Jack Dunn has discovered
have reached the Newark camp
Freddy Banker is coming in for large
bouquets. If Dunn can develop pair
of pitching stars he should be in the
race for awhile. Baltimore will be
dangerous. Montreal and Sammy
Lichtenhein are having their own
troubles. Sammy has about ten men
suspended for refusal to sign at the
terms offered by the Royals presi-
dent.
What benefit these clubs are getting
out of Southern trips, when they are
compelled to practise with only half
of their infield and only one or two
regular pitchers, is hard to see. The
Tigers, with all their men OIL deck.
rapidly rounding into shape and their
pitchers in form, should jump to the
front at the outset. Toronto, the club
Newark faces at the start of the sea
son, has several veterans, such as
Jordan and Holly. who have not re-
ported. according to the latest ac-
counts. 1t will take these fellows
long time to get going, as they did
la ST season. The Toronto and Roches-
ter clubs are the ones Smith fears
the most. Buffalo is likely to be
contender for awhile, but on paper

Harry Smith had lame arm dur

going to second just the same. Harry
times the throw so nicely that he
generally beats the base runner Just
about a step. Smith gets the ball
away SO quickly he seldom has to

Eddie Zimmerman has also official
~ announced his retirement from the
national pastime, but there need be
no immediate alarm. Ed says he will
quit playing ball In 1923.
The Tigers didn't appreciate the &C
commodations at Savannah until they
went to Charleston this week. The
Charleston ball park Is about as
classy as the average back yard. They
claim that Christy Mathewson, pitch
ing for Norfolk. got his first trial on
the same slab from which Kid Kunllle
pitched his no-hit. no-run game in
Charleston Tuesday
All three of Newark's catchers,
Higgins MeCarty and Smith, have
been hitting the ball hard this spring.
Harry will not be compelled to over
exert himself behind the plate this
summer, that's a cinch.
Give me one more experienced
pitcher like Bell and we'd give any
big league club a good run in a seven
game series" says Harry Smith.
There are nine pitchers in the Tiger
squad Three of them will be let out,
1t looks as though the fight to stick
will narrow down to a battle between
Gaskell and Kunkle. Prince wanted
to pitch in the Pacific Coast League,
he said, last fall. He has not shown
much pepper this spring and Smith
likes the. hustlers, who are on their
tip toes all the time.
Newark has a baseball machine that
will be able to pick up a run most
any old time when a tally is needed.
The inside drills in teamwork are
showing their result in the exhibition
and practise games. The Tigers have
made more sacrifice hits this spring
than they made all last summer.
Smith mixes the hit-and-run with
the bunt often enough to keep the
other fellows guessing, and that's half
the battle in fast company.
