Buffalo Team Has No Hard
Task in Cutting Down
Four Run Lead and
Winning.

Charlotte y. c., March 27.-The Buff
falo International League team proved the
first Tartar Frank Chances Yankees have
encountered on their Journey northward,
and In an exhibition game here this after
noon Buffalo won by a score Of 10 4.
Caldwell and Schulz were unable TO hold
the four-run lead that the Yankees &C
quired in the first inning, when. among
other startling performances, Walsh hit
for home run over the left field fence
and CHANNEL for another one over the
right.
Poor pitching marred tho Yankees
game. The team was nettled and con-
stantly harassed by the fact that both
Caldwell and Schulz were far from the
form they displayed on their last starts.
Caldwell failed 70 hold the four runs
handed him In first inning and left Schulz
a working leeway Of only one run. Heine
got better az he went along. and In the
last two innings retired the Buffalo eide
in order. but before ne found himself the
harm had been done.
Apparently he couldn't put a thing on
the ball in his first innings, and four
hits and a pass resulted in four runs. Two
OF the hits were for extra bases-a double
by Roach and a triple by Bader. a one
time Giant colt. Schulz pulled himself out
of a tight squeeze in the seventh when he
tagged at third Vaughn, who had led o

TRAN Athletes for Games.

Albert r. Copeland, recently appointed
trainer-in-chief to the Austrian Olympic
team. sailed yesterday by the American
liner New York for Vienna, where he will
make his headquarters for the next two

Austrian athletes offered excellent mate
rial for high class team under modern
training methods and that the methods
in vogue in the United States would be
followed so far az possible in the develop
ment OF the team.
