Sidelights on Sports
BY A. II. C. MITCHELL

~ GORGE TYLER, southpaw
r Of the Braves, says ne pre-
fers to stick with Stall
lings, but if he is snapped to st.
Louis he will jump to the Fed
eral League.
livery ball player has an aver
IL sion to playing In st. Louis
because the weather is so ter
rit1cally hot In summer. 1t is bad
enough to have to go there as
member of visiting team for
eleven games a year, but to be
there SO-odd days in a playing
season Is something the average
ball player ducks whenever pos
sible.
I 7 is the general opinion among
ball players that the reason
the St. Louis clubs make such a
poor showing in the American
and National League races is be-
cause of the hot weather that
prevails there most of the sum-
mer.
Lou Criger. who played a sea-
son or two in st. Louis, used to
say: "Many's the night l have
lain awake from shutdown TO sun
rise because | couldn't sleep on
account OF the extreme heat. That
sort OF thing takes all the ginger
out OF a ball player | would
rather play for $1,000 in Boston
than for five times as much in
st, Louis"
THIS Mr.. James A. Gilmore.
president OF the Federal
League, seems to be master OF
the art of publicity. He jumped
leader Of the "outlaw" organiza-
ton. Doubtless he realized that
his talents in the publicity line
were being wasted in the coal
business. Publicity in the coal
business is not the right kind Of
publicity. II usually runs TO ref
erences to coal barons and the
numerous advances in the price
Of the commodity.
HAI dlunt suit Mr.. Gilmore.
Besides he said that coal
baron stun was joke and that
there wasn't much money in coal
So, although a novice in the
baseball business, he took
plunge and has succeeded In an
incredibly short space of time in
making the entire baseball world
sit up and take notice.
OF course. Mr.. Gilmore was
- greatly helped by the fact
that It is the on season for base
ball reporters. In the summer

with the real ba seball doings. Mr..

MIKE DONAHUE
HAS PROMISING
TEAM FOR "A
Auburn Coach Will Send Out Call
for Baseball Candidates in
Few Days.
ByTad
Bv Mike Donahue.

TN few days the Auburn baseball
candidates will be called out, pro-
viding the weather is suitable.
AS Auburn has no facilities for in
door work of any kind, the early base
ball practice is dependent largely on
the weather. The fact that there are
many vacancies to be filled will re-
suit in many players turning out.
Several members will be missing
from last years team. Davenport,
first base; Noble, second base; Moul-
ton, shortstop; Major, third base, and
possibly Locke, right fielder. 1t will
be question of developing a brand
new infield and an extra pitcher
Davis will be on hand and is ex-
pected to do the bulk of the twirl-
ing. His injury in the early part Of
last season no doubt had a great deal
to do in keeping the Auburn team
from winning the championship. He
should be in good form this year
Driver, who broke his arm while
pitching last summer, will probably
be in shape. Basore is a promising
scrub pitcher from last year. and
Steed, from the football team, has
considerable promise as hurler and
outfielder.
WILLIAMS, the heavy hitting
/" catcher, will be behind the bat
in almost all the games. Perry may
be selected as his understudy. There
are two other good catchers in col
lege-Hairston, of Marion, and Nc
Neil, of Riverside. AS they are good
all-round players, they will be tried
in other infield positions where the
supply of available candidates is not
so large. Mcneil will be tried at
second and Hairston at third
/ OUISELL is the most available
candidate for first base, while Ar
mold is after the position of shortstop.
Red" Harris looks like a certain
ty in center field and should clout
them in the same old way. Other
outf1elders of experience are Bonner
Graydon, Wynne and Roberts.
Following her custom in football,
all of Auburn's baseball games are

Gilmore would have had no more
chance In getting publicity than
SNOWFALL in the internal regions
But he played his cards at the
psychological moment and in "a
hours the Federal League got
about 100000 worth of advertis-
ing through the signing of Joe
Tinker.
HE leader of the Feds has
worked secretly and when a
man does that he has the other
fellows guessing. Included in the
other fellows are the reporters.
Many conflicting statements are
being made regarding the out
laws" however. In fact, the pro-
motors of the organization are
giving out conflicting statements.
An Indianapolis magnate says.
for example, that Tommy Leach
has been signed to manage the
Pittsburg club. Leach denies 1t.
So does Gilmore and so does
Barbour. president Of the Pitts
burg club. But while several of
the Federal League club owners
have their signals mixed and their
wires crossed Gilmore has thus
far said but little and has made
good on his statements.
T HE Federal League is long
way from winning its fight,
but so far Its leader in the per-
son of Mr.. Gilmore has created a
favorable impression on the base
ball public.

Shugrue and Dundee
Beat English Boxers
In New York Ring
BY Tad

battlers Jared badly in their matches

and Sapper o'Neil meeting defeat. Mo-
rams defeat was ignominious in that
he was forced to quit before the on

end came in the seventh round. Moran,
who had just returned from conquests
in Australia and California, could not
stand the slashing fight his opponent
waged.
Moran claimed a foul early in the
fight but the referee refused TO grant
such request, declaring all blows had
been fair.

John /. Taylor of the Red Sox, who
has just returned from a vacation on

eral League will succeed as a major
league In the first place. he says,
tney are not known well enough He
also believes that they will not be
able TO stand the outlay of money
which Is necessary to ft up base
ball club of major league caliber and
build a park in which to play.
"Out on the coast they have hardly
been heard of yet" said Mr. Taylor.
1T is said there is S125,0OO of Fed
eral League money for the Chicago
plant. but anyone knows that that is
a pretty small figure to invest in a

ing to pay the amount to the contrac-
tors. Had there been no trees to dig
out last year the sidewalks would
have cost IL per cent less money.
Another big cost was the hauling
Of gravel. We would suggest that just
as soon as the protests are heard the
City Council appoint a gravel inspec-
tor and that every abutting property
owner be given the permission to haul
his own gravel or the permission to
have 1t hauled at the same price paid
by the last contractors. The contrac-
tors could not object to this plan, and
with the elimination of the tree cost
and the gravel expense. the monetary
expense should be reduced about one
third. and 1t would distribute the work
among more people at a time when
they are doing little else.

urged that the Utah conservation pro-
ject be undertaken by the govern
ment reclamation service. The sec
tary was unable to give any en-
Encouragement for the immediate adop-
ton OF the enterprise by the govern
mont. because the available reclama-
ton funds are needed to complete
projects which have been commenced
and which must be finished before
new ones are started.
He suggested. however, that DOS
sibly legislation might be secured
which would provide a plan Of coop
Grafton between the states and the
national government for enterprises
Of the character of the one under
consideration, the funds. for carrying
on the work to be raised from the
sale OF bonds redeemable from pay
ments for the land and water rights
The proposition suggested may be dis
cussed at the meeting of the govern
ers which is to be held at the request
OF Secretary Lane to discuss irriga-
ton matters. Governor Spry request
ed the secretary to have the proposed
meeting held in Salt Lake City.
The project referred to is the one
that proposes to take the Weber and
Provo river waters. store them In a
big reservoir in Provo Canyon, then
with long canal and million dollar
syphon take the water into Cedar Val

schools and another set our common
schools That we might secure better

that we might get more efficient sup
ervision for less expenditure OF
money that we might have better
organization of our schools, as is rec
commended by all the leading educa-

we might get just and equitable dis
tribution of our taxes; that we might
most economically use the taxes OF
