being made at the flats and it no doubt
will be the best place that could possibly
be secured fer such meet
Marist held a fast practice on the cam

scooped up the grounders that came their
way.
They have a scrappy little bunch out
there called the "Marist Specials" The
team is made up of boys from the lower
grades
Levitt has left school, He was one of
the best pitchers that Marist had.
Fowler looks good for the track team
at Marist this year. In practicing with
the 12-pound hammer last week he made
several throws of over 80 feet

The athletic association of the Donald

have been made to have a field day, but
the exact date has not been decided upon
yet.
The Tech High team did not have any
baseball practice Saturday, but the candi-
dates will be out today in full force There
are over 30 of them, which means that
each man will have to work hard II he
expects to land berth on this year S

Winters and Moran worse. Nc
Murray caught fairly well.
WHAT the dickens the Nashville
w team of 1908 won it's pennant
with is mystery still. 1t had good
first baseman in Daubert, and
good third baseman Chem in Nc
ElVeen. That was all.
That team of Bill Bernhard's
was marvel Daubert, Butler
East. McElveen and Mccormick
filled in the infleld. Seigel. Weis-
man and Bay were the outfelders.
Hurlburt, Seabough and Hardy-a
joke staff, surely-were the catch
ers. Duggan, Kellum and Hunter
were the winning pitchers-and
they were no stars. Sitton and
Perdue were also on the team, but
not impressive winners.
RILL SMITH won his first pen
nant here-that of 1907-with
S~SN hahASEy HHSH ana great &C.
fensiVe team. And that was all
of il.
OF his four tnf1elders, Fox, Dyer
and Castro were going back. and
Jordan was a STAR though no hit

the lone star, though Winters and
Becker were useful defensively. Sid
Smith, Castleton. Ford, Spade and
Zeller won the pennant.

1 detail would require too much
space. But briefly they stack I'D
like this:
1so6-Birmingham-A we'll bal
anced team-that's all. Meek
Wordsworth and c. Smith did the
batting. Reagan. Wilhelm and
Clark were the winning pitchers.
There wasn't one real star on the
team then, though Sallee, one of
the weakest of the pitchers that
year, afterwards became great.

liams, Robe and Holly were stars
then and formed perhaps the best
infield in all Southern history.
Hahn, Stanley and Nadeau COM
posed a corking outheld Sulli-
van and Stratton caught well. Dy-
CERT, Breitenstein and Phillips
were in their prime. 1t was grand
club.
1904-Memphis-It won largely
because of heavy hitting outfield
-Dugan, Charley Miller and Bill
Gannon-a tight inf1eld and excep-
tional pitching by Goodwin (who
was lucky and Mcintyre, who was
a marvel.
1903-Memphis-A pretty good
team. for those days. Phyle and
Atz were good men in the infield.
DUNCAN, C. Miller. Werden and
Phyle were good hitters. Ehret,
Mcintyre and Breitenstein pitched
corking ball.
1902 - Nashville - Newt Fisher
had pretty good club, composed
mainly of the brains of Abbatic-
chic, the wing of Damman and the
smuggling of Hugh Hill. Bussey
Abbaticchio, Lowney and Cargo
formed a great infield. Wiseman
and Knoll were outfield stars.
-Nashville-Fisher had seven
men hitting over 800. Abbaticchio
as the star, lively outfield and
pitching star in War Sanders. The
winning was easy.
A LII of which is by way of
limiting that Bill Smith
doesn't have to have Chase at
first. LaJoie at second, Wag-
ner at short, Cobb, Speaker and
Jackson in the outfield and Ma

MASH|E MOST
VALUABLE CLUB
IN EVANS BAG

pion,)
r HAVE found my jigger very
handy club, but would not ad-
wise a beginner to buy one OF
these clubs, and II were starting
over again would not buy one my
self Golfers make a great mistake
in trying too many different blades
or lofts.
My 5igger Is a rather peculiar
club. use It instead of mid
iron when AMI going down wind
ard whenever wish a high ball
with as little ron as possible for
tonfdiron distance. It was with this
club that / once played all my
rEn1-up shots. but of hate am using
IL very little.
The nrashie is the all-important
club Of my bag. AS have said be-
tanA I attained unusual distance
with It with control last year, and
btten stretched it into scant mid
iron distance with good results.
MasFie Most Handy Club.
The rnasl1ae is the only club for
n water hole provided it Is a mashie
distance. and 1t IS the logical club
for approach shots, although many
golfers have had good success at
times with the r1idiron by playing
q short fight and a long run shot.
There Is nothing In the air to de-
feet your ball, but there is on the
ground. That is the reason why |
should like TO learn a perfect ''cut"
shot, because one can go all the
way TO the hole and run no chances
on the irregularities of the ground.
The only time that l use mid
iron or a jigger to approach with
is when l am playing with those
clubs alone. From 100 to IT'S yards
down | have had great success
playing the mashie.
I use it entirely to play the short
run-up shot, with q stiff arm fol-
low through. I can get high or
a low shot, hook or slice, a
running one or fairly dead land
ing one off the same blade, so that
it Is useless for me to experiment
with midiron or approaching cleeks
or clubs or other highly specialized
instruments of the game.
NibIck For Short Distance.
The blade of the niblick Is laid
the fartherest back of all the clubs.
and in consequence one gets the
shortest distance with it. 1t is a
club with which nearly every one
is well acquainted. for with 1t. par
ttcularly if he is a beginner, he has
been obliged to explore the depths
OF many bunkers and other unus-
ually bad lies
The niblick is a club of misfor-
tune, closely associated in my mind
with deep holes and sand traps for
l use it almost exclusively for bunk
err shots and for cut" shots from
other bad lies.

there wasn't an earthly thing doing

course the team wasn't ordered to

least couple of free dodgers.
Manager Smith is looking for a
ball player or two before darkness
sets in. He hopes for a dozen or
so tomorrow. And any guy that
isn't out for practice Wednesday
afternoon is in Dutch the first day
out.
Manager Smith has the diamond
in excellent condition, lockers have
all been assigned, uniforms are
ready for distribution, a vast supply
of bats and balls are on hand-all
that Smith needs now is few
more ball players. At present Os-
born is the only man on the job
Smith has some hopes for this
chap. of course normally Osborn
is slated for Macon, but Smith
likes his looks so well that he is
going to try him out. The man
can either pitch or play first base,
but as the Crackers first sack is
well looked out for he will be tried
here only as a pitcher. Smith says
he has a peck of speed and if he

TT doesn't take sixteen star play
ers to win a pennant in this
Southern league. In fact, it
doesn't in any league. The teams
that contended for the worlds
championship last fall were shot
as full of lemons as prohibition
punch. The worlds series itself
proved that-if proof were need
ed. 1t was a citrus convention for
fair.
Go back through Southern league
history and you will find not a sin
gle team made up of stars, few
that we're well balanced, and many
that won because of few stars or
because of strength in one or two
departments.
Let's plow back through the rec
ords. 1t will probably encourage
us to face the coming season with
equanimity, for it will show us the
sort of teams that have won the
rags. Let's take them year by
year:
D BIRMINGHAM won the pennant
in 1912, thanks to good luck, the
absence of injuries, because of the
work of three good pitchers, the
heavy hitting of two infielders and
one outfielder, the nerve racking
base stealing of one man, and still
more because the men played with
a spirit and determination sell
dom equaled on a professional
team.
Molesworths team last year went
strong. and few men were sick or
hurt Foxen, Boyd and Smith
pitched good ball. McGilvray and
Almeida batted wen, and Johnson
hit hard and stole bases like q yegg-
man Barring six men, the outfit
was mediocre.
IF ever there was a four man
team, the Pelican pennant win
ners of 1911 were 1T. Butcher,
kirke, Manush and Hess were the
four. When you look over the rest
of the lineup you marvel that the
team led the league from the first
Of May to the end of the season.
The rag was won with four men
and no. moro.
Butcher and Kirke were the only
hitters, though Callahan was slug
ging pretty we'll Johnston and Ma
nush were handy men in the in
field, but Kirke was a lemon at
fielding. Butcher, Barr. Callahan
and Doane formed anything but a
brilliant outfield Hess, Klawitter.
Breitenstein and Frazier did most
of the pitching and Hess was the
only real man in the lot
ONE man won the pennant for
= New Orleans in 1910, and that
man was Joseph jackson, the
shoeless wonder. He was assisted
by Manush, Hess and Breiten.

only real star
Never was a worse team for ball
ance. Manush was the only star
Of the infield, Rome and DeMontre-
vile being on their last legs. and
Lindsay never was ball PLAYER.
In the outfeld, there was Jackson.
and that was all. for Weimer was
a frost and Butcher wasn't having
a good year. Breitenstein was
having the last good year OF his
career. and he helped out Hess.
The only other pitcher on the staff
was Paige, who was only a mod

was on pennant- winning team.
