In the second match, however, the Pirates
took three points from the leading Tigers
and thereby pulled up to within striking
distance Of the leaders. The Tigers have
been far out in front during the greater part
Of the season. But during the past two or
three weeks they have fallen into a slight

GIANTS PREPARE To IMPROVE
TRAINING QUARTERS At MARLIN
Emerson Park in Texas, to Be Turned Over to Owner
ship of New York Team, and Many Additions to the
Plant Are to Be Made; "Turtle Back" Infield
Is to Be One of It's Features.

TEW YORK, Jan. 27-This is the
M year. that Emerson Park, the
4 ' Giants's training field in Texas
is due to be turned over to the New
York club as their own. with full and
clear title. by the Marlin board Of
trade.
The understanding was, I believe, if
the Giants used the big park for five
successive years for spring practice it
would become theirs, and they have
been 10 Marlin every year since 1906,
when they went to Los Angeles, Calf,
for their annual training trip This,
therefore, viii be the ninth year in
succession that Marlin has been utilized
to the mutual advantage of both the
pretty little city and the club.
Plan improvements.
With the deed of gift in their pos
session, assuring them permanent pos
session of Emerson park, president
Hampstead and manager McGraw con-
template making many improvements
in the training facilities of the field
and the erection of new buildings. The
playing field even now is the biggest
and best of any in the south. but the
new improvements viii add largely to
the present cOnveniences Tor the play
ers and adaptability for training pur-
poses.
McGraW has originated many new
devices to perfect his players physical
~ and to afford variety in the work
OF training, and he has more in mind.
To Build Baths in Park.
Hot water from the artesian wells
in the center of the city viii be piped
to Emerson park, where a permanent
bathhOuse will be erected with lockers
for the players rubbing tables, etc,
so that the players can take their
baths and rubs Immediately after their
workouts, instead OF having to take
the long run to their hotel in damp
clothes as at present
A long shed for practice in rainy
weather viii be built this spring, and
also new handball courts. Handball
has been found a very popular game
with the players for conditioning pur-
poses, and the present temporary al
leys were inadequate to accommodate
all the men who desired to play.
Groundkeeper Henry FABIAN writes
to me that he is about to build one
Emerson park, and that he viii have
the field fully up to the Polo Ground
standard of excellence, if not superior.
And by the way, Phil Schenck, who
was grOundkeeper of old American
league park up on the hill top, tells
me that Fabain's new turtleback in
field that he constructed on the Polo
Grounds last fall is a peach and Phil

a benefit for the Improvement
Club was great success, pleasing
the large and appreciative audience

tons, folk dances and playlets were
all pleasing in every sense of the
word and those taking part reflect
ed great credit upon themselves
and the directing ability of their
teachers.
Mrs. Mabel Elliott, Henry
O'Brien and J. E. Carlson added
much to the evening success, pre-
senting the short sketches, A
Cloudy Day." and the Breezy
Call" In the rendition of these
sketches the caste handled their
parts with splendid consistency,
combining strength especially be-
fitting the parts. The lady's part
was especially well played.
A most pleasing feature of the
evenings entertainment was the
excellent character make-ups, and
the suitable costumes of the mem
bers of the plays. This Depart

WILL DEBATE WITH STANDPOINT
Local High School Preparing Teams
for Interscholastic Debate

Arrangements are being made
between the Standpoint high school
and the Boomers Ferry high school
for an interschoolastic debate upon
the subject Resolved, That the
Monroe Doctrine Shall be Abol-
ished." This question was chosen
by the public speaking department
of the University of Idaho and
will be debated throughout the
state this spring. The southern
part of the state has a debating
league but up to this time very lit
tie has been done in the north.
Two teams from the local high
school will be coached upon the
subject and one will oppose the
question and one will debate for it.
The affirmative team will probably
remain in the home town and meet
the negative team from Standpoint,
and vice versa with them.
The question was brought up at
the last regular board meeting
and the board members were en-
thusiastic in the matter and prom
ised their support. Prof. Geiter
will have personal charge of the
work. Material has been sent for
and it is probable that the finals
with Standpoint will take place the
last week in April.
Monday morning Supt. Spoerry
gave short telling argument in
favor of debating in school life and
the results that it brought in after
life, and then called upon the stu
dent body to uphold the honor of
the school against Standpoint. In
response "a students drew lots for
places in the tryouts, which means
that this school will be well rep
resented. Those taking part are:
Athenian Society = Affirmative:
Dean Norten, Jack Mcnamara,
Coda Harding, Claude O'Callag-
han, Verna Bruce; negative, Ever
EFT Luce, Henry O'Brien, Hugo
Riser, John Stewart, Vera Jones,
Loretta Lynch.
Olympian Society-Affirmative:
Berdine Gines, Waverly Miller,
Rex Norten, Arthur Bangs, Gene
Campbell, Alta Plato; negative,
Vera Mahoney, Ruth Biggar, VIM
