Dates for the

HIGH SCORES ARE MADE
FROM LAST NIGHTS GAMES
Cornwell, Krauss. Rider and Litzau
Roll High Sets-Teams
Do Well.

There is possibility that the pro-
posed matches between Washington and
Brockton bowlers will not be held. In
dications are that a controversy is GO
ing to take place over the date for the
first meeting, and there is not much
likelihood that the local men will be
dictated to. A letter was received by
John Meany yesterday in which the
Brockton bowlers requested that the
matches scheduled for next Saturday
night, March IA, be postponed until
March %. Arrangements had been made
by the local organization to go to
Brockton March IA, and whether or
not 1t will submit to the change is
questionable.
1t would indeed be regrettable if the
matches did not take place. There has
been SO much talk about the conditions
governing the sport in the two cities
that it would be well to settle the con
troversy for all time. That could only
be done by meeting between the two
representative teams. II the Brockton
people attempt to dictate terms, though.
and have everything their own way.
Washington men cannot be blamed if
they refuse to accede

Regarding the coming battle with Car
pentier, McGoorty says that the great
French fighter refused to make the trip
to Australia. as he did mot care to travel
SO far from his home in Paris. In his
effort to land the match McGoorty cabled
back that he would fight anywhere and is
pleased that the battle-ground is to be in
Ireland.
McGoorty is we'll known in Dublin, as
he was there two years ago and defeated
Jim Sullivan, the Irish champion, after
the latter had gained a twenty-round de-
cision over him.

poses to have gang Of men work on the

get on the field that he is constantly pay
ing it visits to note what progress is be-
ing done to get it into shape.
There is no such word as tired in Joe
Gedeon's makeup. If ever there was a
player who takes kindly to work 1t is the
young Californian and he seems to get
real enjoyment out of it. He works with

that Griffith divides up the work in both

Gedeon, who works right through with
both. He manages to always find some

one cheerful and filled with energy with
his rasping voice.

pleased with his showing, for Cashton
not only displayed a lot OF stuff. but the
ball was just wherever Ainsmith held

been his failing, but he seems to have
overcome this weakness now. Because of
his hard work in the morning, Cashion

makes an effort to correct them, and it
is remarkable how much improvement the
young pitchers pick up as a result
Griffith has pronounced ideas as to what
pitcher should be able to do, and he
insists on his new men working along his
lines. This brings to light the very
strange condition that some Of the young
sters who are up for trial in fast COM
pany know decidedly little about the art,
or the game, for that matter.
The training grind becomes particularly
tedious for the players under present
conditions, when they do not have an OPP
portunity to indulge in batting practice.
players have. and if they were allowed
they would be at it from morning to
night. 1t is the one thing in base ball
which makes it worth while from the
players standpoint. They all like to hit,
and they never get tired Of swinging
their bats at the ball. There is, OF
course, no doubt that an abundance of
batting practice develops what is known
as the batting eye. Players can improve
their hitting by long series OF practice,
and when the men get outside Grlfnth
will give them all the practice Of this
kind that they yearn for, because he is
well supplied with pitching material to
furnish the practice.
