The overwhelming victory by which the

a standing second 10 none in the country.
1t is questionable if there is an eleven

fact that the Navy could score seventy

work harder in the spring. but II snort

average ball PLAYER nowadays Keeps NM
self in shape all year round. He rests
his arm, to be sure. and does not put
any unnecessary strain on his legs, but
he takes some sort OF exercise to keep
himself fit and when he reports in the
spring all he has to do Is to get his arm
and wind i'm working order, and Is ready
to play ball.
1t therefore Is no longer necessary
for ball teams to go to the extreme
south, but most any place where the
players can indulge in batting and
fielding practice. and where the pitchers
can work out will answer the purpose.
The rather discouraging finish which
the Athletics made in the last pennant
race. going at $40 clip from August |
to indicate that the team will have
to get another flying start in the next
race in order to repeat its performance.
The showing of the Mackmen showed
plainly last season that they had little
or nothing to finish with. and that had
it not been for the splendid lead they
secured early in the campaign they
could not possibly have held their lead
to the finish.
It Is true, of course. that after they
rested up Tor ten days or Two weeks lHes
were able to come back to their best form
in the worlds series, but long season of
games such as the regular pennant race
affords will be more trying on team.
Mack won last year by his early lead.
which he gained by constautir using his
sea Soned pitchers to relieve his young
sters The old fellows needed 4 rest at
the finish. and it is decidedly questionable
whether they could go through another
campaign and do the amount of work
they were called on in the last campaign.
Mack's young twirlers, of course, figure
to be much better than they were. They
are sure to improve, SO that Bender and
Plank may be able to go through the sea-
son without working out OF turn.
Now comes the story that Dave F'ultz is
thinking seriously Of taking the presi-
dency of the Federal League. If he takes
that step the PLAYER fraternity will, of
course, have to elect a new president, as
1t is not likely that the fraternity would
want to tie itself up with an outlaw or
ganization. If FultZ drops out the play
ers are sure to have their demands ac-
ceded to and a better understanding be-
tween players and club owners will exist
from that out.

jurors in the box.
The state today is seeking to estab-
lish that Hightower went to the Lynn
home in pursuance of a request from
Mrs. Lynn. A letter, written by her
was successfully introduced in the evil
dence. One sentence of this commu-
nication. which was addressed to the
deceased, reads: Il need you in my
loneliness"
The states evidence also shows that
seven bullets were fired. Five entered
Hightower's head and two penetrated
his stomach. A negro farm hand tes-
titled that after he heard five shots he
saw Lynn run from the house, and that
two more shots were then fired.
Two attorneys are employed by High
towers relatives, assisting the state in
the prosecution. There is a great deal
of interest and the court room is crowd
ed with spectators.
1t is probable that both Mr.. and Mrs.
Lynn will take the stand early tomor-
