HOPKINS ENTERS BIG
SQUAD OF RUNNERS
Baltimore Institution to Be

In the healthy batch of entries that
were forwarded to Manager E. Eugene
Darr of the Georgetown track team, last
night. were those of Johns Hopkins Uni
versity of Baltimore. winner of the re-
cent meet under the auspices Of George
Washington. The Monumental city ath-
letes. expect to make a strong bid for
point honors, and are working hard in
order to be in prime shape in time for
the big meet at Convention Hall next
Saturday night
Fifteen individual entries besides a re-
lay team that Will be matched against
Washington and Lee. the Carlisle Indians
and North Carolina, are included. and
Manager Paul Carter. in a letter accom-
panying the list, made the statement that
the team will be the strongest that can
be recruited from the squad now working
out under the direction of Coach Joe
England.
Included among the individual entries
pion shotputter. who has been the most
consistent point winner for Hopkins in
the three years he has attended the
school. The big fellow has entered the
vault. and is looked upon as one of the
leading contenders in each Of these
events.
Others who will wear the Black and
Blue of Hopkins. are Blanco in the high
jump and pole vault: Reside, in the dis
lance races: Grower in the middle dis
lance events: Schnack. in the open quar-
ter, Connolly in the high jump and shot
put, McDonogh, in the hurdles. Tappan in

The local combination will have men in
almost every event, and is hopeful of
showing its heels to the other contend

Catholic U. Track Team Not to Com
pete in G.. u. Games Saturday.

There will be no entries from the Cath
olice University received by the manage
ment of the Georgetown meet. This
means no man from the Brookland insti-
tuition will compete for honors at the
Georgetown games Saturday. This ac-
ton was taken by the athletic coun-
Gil at a special meeting held for the pur-
pose yesterday morning. The George
town managers of base ball and basket
ball have not been willing to arrange
games with the Catholic University
managers for the past two years. and
last week Mr.. Walsh, president of the
Catholic University Athletic Association.
tried to get the men behind athletics at
Georgetown to meet at any convenient
time to them. In today's letter he re-
ceived word that there was no need for
such a coming together as the sched-
ules Of the different teams for the COM
ing year are filled up, but stated as soon
as a vacancy occurred games would be
arranged between the two teams. This
certainly sounds good, but the athletic
council evidently does not like its tone
and stated that no track team Of the
Catholic University should enter a
Georgetown meet until the other teams
are scheduled to be met and are met.

1t has always been agreed among base

give the players plenty of practice at the
game. INDUCING in any other form OF

serious mistake. A ball players mus

pugilists' or foot ball players.
Hardened muscles are usually found a
handicap in a ball player. Agility is
what players should strive for and this
cannot be accomplished by any exercise
which is not experienced in the playing
of the game. Running. throwing and
batting practice, when properly INDUCED

CLEVELAND. February 81. : Four
Cleveland players have not signed up for
the coming season. Unless they sign they
will not travel to the training grounds at
Pensacola at the expense of the Cleve-
land ball club.
The men who are known to hold I'M
signed contracts are Steve O'Neil. catch
err; Jim Baskette and Nick Cullop pitch
ers, and Ray Chapman shortstop.
O'Nel was the first to become known
as a hold-out. The young catcher came
to Cleveland for a conference with club
officials a week ago, but without meeting
with success. Nick Cullop, the highly
touted southern southpaw hurler secured
from New Orleans, was next to be heard
from. Though Cullop has never tried to
fool major league batsmen. he thinks he
should get more money at the start than
has been offered him.
Ray Chapman said at his home in Her
rim. H.. yesterday that he was dissat1s-
fled with the terms offered him ana that
he expected something better. chapman
declared he was not a hold-out exactiF.
but he had asked for better inducements
and hoped to get them. Chapman says
he received about 81 900 more money from
the Nap management than from the
Toledo club. He wants to go south
on the training trip, but according to new
precedent the Cleveland officials no longer
take players south who do not accept
terms before they start for the training
grounds.
Jim Baskette is not hold-out. still he
has not signed his contract. The big
pitcher has been kept busy this winter
getting into and out Of scrapes with pow
der and knives. and it is possible that IN
the confusion he has overlooked his con-
tract.
President Somers said yesterday that In
ONeirs case the catcher could sign at
the terms offered or he could not play
with the Maps. Concerning the other
players the Cleveland owner talked In a
different tone. but said nothing of meet
ing any of the demands.

was favored in this way not little. The
very fact that, the team remained intact
all season was of the greatest help. Larry
Gardner was out for a time with an in

when he was forced into retirement, so
that the team was not handicapped. Luck
in the playing of the game will probably
break even during a season, but 1t is the

Thorpe Is genuine surprise. and IL Is
predicted that he will prove one or the
finds of the season, though 1t is by no
means settled in what position he Will be
played If he makes the team as Iesu-
lar.
Whenever the Nationals chances are
discussed or the relative strength or the
teams is considered it is pointed out
that Griffiths team is weak at second
, base Granting that there are some teams
better fortified in that position than the
locals. it is also fact that there are
some teams not as we'll fortified. Without
considering what the several recruits may
show in the position. Morgan and Laporte
are pretty fair pair to draw to- La
porte, with his hitting ability, is a much
better man at second than several other
clubs can boast of. Any man who is a
consistent 300 hitter, as is Laporte, is a
pretty handy man to have around. True,
Laporte is not a whirlwind around sec
ond, and Yet there are a lot of second
basemen playing in the major leagues
who are not in his class.
! The advantage of having a player like
Laporte on the infield lies in the fact
that 1T would give the Nationals three
300 hitters on the bags. Gandil is sure
to hit that much, Foster comes near it.
strength added to an outfield which In
the aggregate will hit over the coveted
mark gives the team considerable often
sive prowess which does much to make
1t winner.
There is little doubt that both Milan
and Moeller will hold their positions, and
even Shanks, who did not hit any too
well last season, will be hard to beat out
of his job. If any changes are made
in the outfield Griffith will have been
fortunate enough to pick up a real star.
for no mediocre player will be able to
replace any one Of his last years out
field. To attribute the Nationals splendid
showing last season to a streak of good
luck or a series of good breaks, has
been charged. is absurd. Compare the
team which Griffith presented last sea-
son with any that ever wore Washing
ton uniform and the reason for its good
showing becomes very plain.
1t was the first time in the history of
the club when team was presented
which resembled a major league aggrega-
ton. In previous years, barring the
presence of a good nucleus, Washington
had really only minor league outfit.
