Want Robertson and Alumni Favor Connors
 Of Exeter.

Philadelphia. Penn, March 24-Af- ter a discussion of the qualifications of more than a score of candidates, the Football Committee of the Uniyer- sity of Pennsylyanias yesterday after noon decided that the selection of the trainer of the Red and Blue athletic teams lay between Lawson Robertson of the Irish American Athletic Club of New Yord and George Connors of Exeter Academy.
 The alumni of the university seem to be arrayed solidly for Connors, while the undergraduates favor Rob ertson.b Another factor strongly in Robertson's favor Is his recommenda- ton by James B. Sullivan of the A A. U, who already has definitely an- nounced that. Robertson will be the trainer of the next American Olympic team in 1916- Robertson has signified his willingness to accept the appoint ment.

 Yesterday's game showed the High flanders at their best form Of the spring Barring nnuffs by Holden and GilhooIey, the defense was perfect and the ofrenEe nearly so. Both Of the of lenders retrieved their errors through fine stick work. Gilhoiey hit a homer over the right field wall in the eighth inning, soon after Jimmy walsh had cleared fhe opposite barrier with one of the longest hits ever seen at his park The work Of Ray Keating and King Cole was sensational. Keating famed eleven men in five Innings in two of which he struck out the side

BURR AND COOPER
 STAY WITH TANKS
Chance Pleased With Work of New York Recruit
 Pitchers.

Beaumont Texas, March 24.-1fan- ager Chance will bring back two new faces. as far as his pitching staff is concerned, for. big league inspection. The ones we have reference to are Al Burr. the big Williams College pitcher, and Cooper from the Peters burg club in the Virginia league.
 sI think both Burr and Cooper are good prospects.'' said Chance last night. They may need some exper- fence, but I think it would be a good idea to keep them around to see how things go in the big league. I like their style. Both have speed and seem to know more about pitching than the average hurIer breaking into the big league..s
 Burr has the record of not losing a. game. He did some pitching for the Hotchkiss School two years ago and then did some hinging for the Choate School at Wallingford, Conn. From there he went to Williams College. He measures 6 feet 2 inches and weighs about 190 pounds
 As for Cooper, he seems to be one Of those wise birds who act as if they had been in the big league before Boils on Cooper's neck have set him back considerably, but every player on the club has been constantly saying that he looks mighty good for big league material.

If Carl Cashion, the big Washing ten pitcher, makes good this year. he will not be the only pitcher who be- game great after being apparently use less to club for several years. Amos Rusie was not 3. success from the out set of his career by any means. Rusie was exceptionally wild in his early days and he had to be carried along for two or three years before he got te going properly- This is also true Of Rube Afarquard Of the Giants. Wild Sill Donovan, than whom there were few better pitchers when he was in his prime, was carried for several years before he showed signs of mak- ing star So there is much to be hoped for Cashfon.
