fact that a tremendous uplift in March

This phase Of the problem may be
further complicated by the passage Of
York to adopt Government grades and
commercial differences. thus driving the
short to a distinctly dearer contract
basis. And now the trade must face
the possibility Of conditions that would
dangerously shrink the new crop This
possibility is not taken to heart at the

The Keene team for three seasons
has been the runner-up at the finish
OF the league season and Manager
Daniel Sullivan figures that this year
he will turn the trick and land his
team at the top. The team is to be
known officially as The Beavers and
it is the first year Of Sullivan at the
helm.
He has collected as pitchers, Ralston,
who was in the league last year, Mar
tin of the Tufas 1911 team, who had a
big league tryout; Rob MURRAY of Ho-
~ Cross, admittedly a good man;
Walsh Of Fordham and Whitaker of
Tufts. Fish of Seton Hall, with Keene
last year, will do the bulk Of the
backstopping and McElwee, who was
with Keene last year, will be at third.
Lynch Of the Catholic university. who
started with Brattleboro last year and
left the team because he did not wish
to be with tail ender, in spite of
his agreement, is to play an outfield

started with Fitchburg in the New

not stand the pace, may be with
Greenfield, but he is claimed by both
that team and Northampton. He is
merely one of the many problems the
league directors have TO solve if they
ever meet in force. In any event he
should not be a terror to the local
team.
Fred Crowther is to be at first base.
- Bill Donnelly is outfeldcr and sub
catcher. Swasey of Amherst is center
fielder and Mayforth is to be the team :
regular catcher. He joins the last of

70 those who have watched the local
players at practice there is not the
slightest question but that Manager
breckenridge has a stronger team than
he had a year ago at the opening sea
son aud, with the exception of his
pitching staff, probably as strong a
team as he had at any time during the
season of 1913.
Dixie, with us last year and great
favorite, stands at the head Of the
pitching staff lie is a particularly
handy man to have around because of
his ability to outfcld and to hit as
well as pitch. The others Of the pitch

ability as q twirlcr or Eastman may
be. Sturtevant, who beat the Barre
Italian Athletic team in 10 innings
Friday, is another pitcher, a good stick

Jim Deleney, behind the bat, will
be the field captain. Everyone knows
Tommy Leonard rs a first base
man, but he will not join the team
until next week Devine at third or
in the outfeld, is a former Twin Slater
with New England league experience
since.
Awkward of Middlebury, who pitches
with either hand, but is principally a
right handler; Hicks, who was one OF
Breck S pitchers at Colgate, and Egg
gers, who is a pitcher from Staten Is
land are others of the team who will
land here today or tomorrow.
Dave Murphy Of Adams, Mass, &
former York state Lacquer, is to play
third with Roche at short, or it may
be than Johnson, who played short fol
Brown this season, will be found il
that position.
The outfeld viii have a college man
possibly Ormsby of Brown, and pitch
CT. The lineup Of the team cannot b,
finally determined until Leonard re
