Sexton. coach Of the Harvard baseball
team. assembled his varsity candidates
in the cage here this afternoon for bat
ting practice The pitchers and catch
ers have been drilling for the last
three weeks and are making satisfac-
tory progress.
The Crimson will have a veteran
team this spring, as there are only two
vacancies, those at second base and
shortstop. Mas. who played first base
last year. may be shifted to the short
field, while Phillips, the star of this
seasons hockey team. who was substi
tut second baseman two years ago and
captain Of the scrubs last year. is the
most likely man for the middle base.
Harvard has Waterman. last years
catcher, in line, and also Harte, OF the
freshmen, who is a hard, natural hit
ter. Captain Ayres will be at third
base. He will not return to Cambridge
for another month, as he is i'll, but it il

the first game. which will be played
against the Boston Braves on April l2.

Federal League and the Kansas City
club over the transfer Of the latterS
franchise to Newark. n. j., Judge Jesse
A. Baldwin, in the Circuit Court, an
nounced that he would take the case
under adysoment until Wednesday
morning, when he would render decl-
sion
"Our contention is that the fran
chise of the Kansas City club was not
legally forfeited at the meeting of the
board of managers in New York on Oc-
tober 22. 1914" said John II. Zane. at
torncv representing the Kansas City
club. ir his argument asking that the
temporary injunction issued on Febfu-
arv % restraining the Federal League
from transferring the Kansas City club
franchise be made permanent
"This meeting was illegal because
il was not held in January, as the artl--
cles of the league provide continued
Mr. Zane. Secondly, it was illegal
because Mr.. Madison. president of the
Kansas City club. was not allowed to
take part in the meeting Of the board
Of managers, although he was recorded
a present.
"The agreement. which allowed the
league 70 dispose Of the franchise Of
any club upon default Of payment, was
never accepted by ;he Kansas C'ty CLUB.
The agreement also states that the
franchise Of the club may be forfeited
by a majority vote OF the board o.
managers. The other side has never
produced any evidence 20 show that
this action was taken.
"In the Federal Leagues suit against
organized baseball. now pending before
Federal Judge Lands, the Kansas City
club was asked by the league 20 sign
a petition Of Intervention "a one Of the
constituent members Of the league. This
petition was signed and presented
among others to Judge Lands. This
is practically an admission on the part
Of the league that the Kansas City club
is one of its members"

the Kansas City club after the fran

The Brooklyn pitchers did more to

an overload of cut plug, started for
the Superbas. and for three frames he
served them up Pat said before the
game that he was going to take mat

Like his predecessor Leon vetoed any
batting bee. but loosened up with q
couDle of passes. His curve ball broke
nicely. and his change of pace was Sc
ceptive, and, what was more important
perhaps, he was cool and calm under
FIRE. With men on the bases he worked
with 3 broad smile on his face and
shot the ball over the plate, working
the corners at all times.
The score follows:
