THE LINEUP.
Game at $3.50 p. m.
By LOUIS A. DOUGHER.

F. w. Bruce, Virginia Polytech-
mic Institutes slugging captain and
outfielder, reported today to Man
ager Clark Griffith. He complains
Of a strained ligament in his knee
and will be examined by the club
physician before being allowed to
run around much in uniform. The
injury does not affect his walking,
but slows him up in his running.
Bruce is q tall chap, loosely built
and looks all right for q trial by
the ball club" said Manager Grif-
fifth today, following his chat wtn
the collegian. Hell develop into a
big man when he gets his growth.
Though he walks without any limp,
he says he has a strained ligament In
his knee, SO I have turned him over
to the club physician for examination.
AS soon as he Is able to run around
without bother. I'll look him over"
Bruce made q wonderful record for
the last two years at v. p. l., ana
scouts from several big league clubs
were on his trail. Mike kahoe. how
ever. slipped in ahead Of the others
and signed him UP for the Grifrmen.
Tommy Connolly Is improving fast.
and will soon be able to take his place
In the lineup. Manager Griffith will
let him rest, though. for a few days
In order that he will be in perfect con-
dition when he again gets into the
game.
Either Doc Ayers or Walter Johnson
will pitch tomorrow against the White
Sox. The former has displayed such
good form on the mound Since getting
a real chance that the Old Fox is likely
to use him in turn while he is going
good. Boehling may be withdrawn
from the regular quartet and allowed
to rest up bit. Ayers will replace
him.
President Ban Johnson, who arrived
here Saturday. is expected to leave
town tonight. He had a conference
this afternoon before the game with
Manager Griffith. discussing the out
look in the Capital. expressing himself
as satisfied with most things.

 DATE FOR CHAIR
Democratic Conference Commit tee Has Agreed on Form of
 ClOture Rule to be Presented
 for Action after Hard Fight.

Washington, Dec. 1.-Senator Pom creme, of Ohio, became a candidate tonight for president pro tempore of the senate in opposition to Sena- tor James P. Clarke of Arkansas, who seeks reelection. The candidacy of the Ohio senator announced after the session of the democratic caucus as- sures lively contest which will be settled next Friday. Opposition to Senator Clarke had been smouldering ever since the democratic conference began Monday because of his antagon- ism to the ship purchase bill at the last session.
 Administration leaders had sought however to allay this opposition for the sake of party harmony and it was not until tonight that an open fight against him developed. Tomorrow the conference will act to prevent filibus- tering.
 The committee tonight agreed on a cloture rule which would provide means for forcing a measure to vote whenever filibustering tactics became apparent. It would provide that when any senator arises and asserts the op- inion that an attempt is being made to obstruct measure and claims the right of the senate to proceed to vote the chair shall submit without debate the question: lis it the sense of the senate that an attempt is being made to obstruct, hinder or delay a vote ?" if the question is decided in the affirmative it will be in order for any senator to move to fix a time for talk ing vote on the pending measure and all amendments such motion to be de- cided without debate
 The time to be fixed would be at least two calendar days after the making of such motion. Democratic senators who oppose cloture predicted tonight that the proposed rule would be vigorously fought.

AGE z; TWICE FORMALLY EN-
 LISTS IN U. s. MARINE CORPS

Vallejo, Calif., Dec. 2.-Although his parents didn't raise him to be a soldier, Frederic c. Bradman, IT,, of Mare Island, age ' years, has twice formally enlisted in the United States Marine Corps and is a corporal in his second 'hitch" to use the sea-soldier vernacular.
 Corporal Bradman wears a service stripe and good conduct medal as a reward for excellent service during his first enlistment and also "sports" a sharpshooter' badge that was won by proxy. The youngest Marine has had two years foreign service in Cuba which will count as four years toward the thirty years necessary for re- tirement. And Corporal Bradman says he will reenlist until he shall have served thirty years.
 Major Frederic L. Bradman, U. s. M. C., father of the boy, is proud of the fact that the regularly enlisted Marines have accepted his son as a comrade and obey his orders as cor poral.
