Front and Union Park for what pro-
misses to be one of the stffest ex-

Union. Out Of the % games played
by the Mack youngsters only three

OF these were lost to teams Of the
Texas League and one was dropped

full transforming trip and the team
will do its best TO clean up with VIII
mington in it's last exhibition game.

this spring and is regarded as a real
conner. Coombs and Houck and
Stevens the latter of Wilmington will
do the twirling. The team will pro-
baby lineup as follows: Schang. left

same as they did on Saturday against
the Phillie Yanigans.
The season has not progressed far
enough to judge any Of the new men
on the local team and Jackson rates
them all on even terms, and giving
them all even chances.

Jackson has a real bunch OF ball
players. For a squad with only two
days training the Chicks put up an
excellent game. The men had never
played together and with the little
! practice that they got on Thursday
and Friday they demonstrated that
they could play real baseball
Put the Yanigans in their place,
with only two days training and the
result would have been totally diff
ferent with the Chicks at the big end
of the bag.
