(Tiger Pitcher Who Is Expected to Shos
Great Form This Year,

COLUMBUS, Ga, March Fans
often ask me who is the hardest bats
man in the league to fool. In my
opinion we have him right with us
on the Newark team He is Jack
Dalton. Dalton stands so far away
from the plate that pitcher sizing
him up would naturally conclude that
he never could reach a curve ball on
the outside corner, but he has a
wonderful eye and he follows the ball
beautifully, timing it with such
skill and taking a stride forward Just
at the right time, to wade in and
bang the ball hard. He hits a curved
bah on the outside more often per-
haps than any other batter in tho
league and he is just as good on a
fast one.
Jack Has His Own system.
Jack has a system all his own. He
generally let's the first one slip by
The pitcher concludes Jack is in a
hole and starts to work on him. They
try to keep it on the outside corner
but Jack shoots such ball right
back at the pitcher. Any time you
see pitcher skinning out of the
way of ball Dalton has hit, you can
take 1t for granted that pitcher has
tried to fool Jack with one on the
outside corner.

The boys overcame many handi-
caps last year in their fight to win
the pennant The fans sometimes do
not appreciate what it means to a
team to lose a pitcher like Aitchison
who was wonder and a big help to
any team.
Manager Harry Smith deserves
much of the credit. too, for his skill
in handling the pitching staff. He al
ways trusts pitcher and any time
man says he does not feel quite
right Harry wants to know it. Some
managers might say pitcher was
laying down, but Harry gains the re-

trusting them. and not man on the
club would do anything to hurt him
or his feelings.

Jack Dunn Talks Freely.

Jack Dunn, manager of the Orioles,
came all the way UP from the train
ing camp to attend the international
League meeting. Dunn talked very
freely.
mot one of my men has Topped to
the Federals, every one of the thirty,
including regulars and recruits. hav-
ing signed" he began.
When asked what he thought of the
third league, Jack replied, I'm not
going to say anything for or against
the Feds. They don't worry me, and
I'm satisfied with my club the way 1t
stands"
Dunn was asked to give his opin-
ions of the two local ball players, Gus
Gleichmann and Gus SchWarz who
will wear Oriole uniforms this season.
Just begin with this. Gleichmann is
the greatest first baseman in the
country. He can field his position as
we'll as the next, and if he could hit
every big league club would be hot
after him. He will be Il regular If he
succeeds in improving his batting.
As for SchWarz. / never saw him in
action, but from what ! have heard
while in New York, he looks very good,
and ought to make the team There is
q good chance for him, but it's mainly
up to him." he said
II have heard that things have been

ternity. That is positively untrue
released Corcoran for other reasons.
As a matter Of fact, I was one of the
first men in the international League
who said, give the player every de
mand he wants" President Edward
Barrow of the league was standing
near Dunn, and he backed the Oriole
manager up strongly in this respect.

TWO-FOLD VICTORY
FOR ST. BENED|CTS
In Face of Great Rivalry, the
Game Is Clearly
Played.

The game yesterday was a double
victory for st. Benedict's. In inter
school contests of this sort the rivalry
is very keen, and the players, urged
on by frenzied spectators, often give
unsportsmanlike exhibitions Mem
cries of the old BarrngerSt. Bene-
diets are said to be the cause of
the prep schools inability to get
games with the majority of the high
schools hereabouts. After the cleap
game put up by the Benedlcts yes
terday there can be no criticism of
this sort. Aside from unavoidable in
cidents and a little nolsiness on the
part of certain rooters, the contest
proceeded without hitch or I'M
pleasantness.
Guido Caval1aro said after the con-
test that 1t was the oleanest, consid-
ering It's importance, that he had ever
refereed.
The seating capacity of the Cen
trail gymnasium was severely taxed
by the crowd of rooters that thronged
the school to witness the rivals COM
hat for the final game of the series.
Long before Central had concluded
the days session, the spectators
gathered in large numbers on New
and High streets awaiting the open

ders on benches. Parallel bars and
other apparatus all served to accom-
modate those who arrived too late to
find seats.
Referee Guido Cavallaro and UNI
pire Louis Fields handled the con-
test in irreproaehable fashion. Only
once did the spectators make audi
BILE criticism of the officials work AT
the time, Cavallaro halted the game
and announced he would not brook
interference on the part of the spec
tators. Upon this, the noisy element
subsidized and the game continued
speedily and without comment.

tators We're Principals Wayland E.
Stearns, of Barringer; William John
son, of the Barringer faculty, and
Randall Warden, the head of the
physical work in the public schools.
Joe Byrne the local scout of Notre
Dame College, was on hand looking
over his latest candidate, Frank Nc
Dermit, the crack centre of st. Ben
edicts.
st. Benedicts owes much OF its
great comeback to Frank McDer-
