 The battery places will be we'll talk en care of. Deyo will be called on for most of the pitching, but Chaplin, Link. Copeland and Straw can be call ed on to help him. Chaplin, a soph- onore, gives promise of developing into a star pitcher if Coach Clark e can teach him control. Eddie Driggs the former Adelphi Baseball and foot ball star, has been given temporary call over Salmon. Driggs is a good catcher and 9 fairly hard hitter, but it is not expected that he will be there throughout the season as Sal mon is reliable and a seasoned catch CT.
 The competition, for the outfield po- sitions has been unusually keen. Four men who won their letters last year by doing work in the gardens are working for places. but Capt Greene and Hanks were the only ones to ap- pear in the first lineup The third place. center, goes to Tfbbot, who played at half back on the eleven last fall and on his freshman nine.

NEW HAVEN BOY
 MAKES I9 STRIKES BOW ING IN PEORIA

Peoria. Ill, March 29-New Haven bowlers occupy second place in the five men, and third place in the two men events at the American Bowling Congress here Mort Lindsey's cham pions toppIed two pins in the team event last evening.
 The poor rolling of Stephenson hindered the squad from copping first place, which is now held by the Bar ry KetteIer team Of Chicago, with a total of 29O7 The feature of the evening" shooting was the beautiful bowling Of Porto and Hartley who totaIed 637 and 63O respectively.
 Lindsey and Hartley rolled into third place in the two man events this afternoon with a total of 1270. Splits alone prevented tn em from top ping the mark of 1297 established by the Allen brothers Of Detroit. Lind seys shooting was remarkable. total ing e63 in the series. He had nine teen strikes. to his credit. In the other frames, with the exception of two. when he drew splits, he spared. Hartley rolled a. consistent game Of ten pins, rolling 6O7.
 c. Johnson led the New Haven lads in the singles with 597 count An error in the tenth frame of the final game brought him below 500. The New Haven boys will out into the prfze money in every event.

Brooklyn Yankee
BASEBALL WAR WILL CONTINUE
 THIS SEASON

New York, March 29-when Presi- dent James A. Gilmore Of the Federal league took train at the Grand Cen traI yesterday afternoon for Chicago he stated that the club owners on Sat- urday night had come to a perfect un- derstanding, and that the independent circuit would, open with much cere- nnony and pomp on April 10. The Kan sas City Newark nluss was fixed up to the satisfaction of all parties con- cerned.
 Pat Powers and Harry Sinclair who signed Ed Ruelbach, Germany Schae- fer and 'sChic'' Brandon, a pitcher, for the Kansas City club when they be- lieved that the club was going to New ark, insisted that these players be transferred to the Indianapolis club. which they eventually purchased.
 The Kansas City people wanted to retain these players. as they had signed contracts with their club, but the Newark owners Insisted that the players were their personal property. The league agreed with Powers, and the players were declared the property of the Newark club.
 The one conclusion that the Federal league club owners were unanimous on at this last conclave was that they will operate for another season before looking for or contemplating any kind of peace proposals. The acquisition Of Harry F. Sinclair to the Federal league ranks has given the Independents re- neWed confidence that they will win out inAthe end.
 It was stated among the Federal IIeaguers at Saturdays meeting that Sinclair had been approached by off, cials of the National league and that If he wished to purchase a National league club he could have had one It was stated that both the St. Louis and lPhilade1phia clubs could have been purchased by Sinclair, but he turned down all overtures for the Federal league.
 With the Federal league determined uation in baebaH year from this time is very prob1ematical. The Fed efa1 1eaguers seem confident that or ganized. ball will weaken if they keep up the fight long enough. Some of the rnoneyed men behind the Federal league even go so far as to antteirate just what the 9naI outcome will be when the two Warring clements get together It seems to be generally conceded by the wisest of baseball men that there | is no room for three major leagues. From the beginning the rivalry of the game has been developed between two IIeagues and a third league gives the baseball public more baseball than they care to be interested in.
 What the Federal league really an- ticfpates, it is stated. is an amalgama- ton of the stronger clubs of the three leagues, the National, American, and Fsederals. The weaker clubs will be eventually eliminated, they believe, and two major leagues will be reor- ganized on a new basis, which will make them stronger than ever before
 This means, of course. that the weaker teams will have to drop down and eventually be absorbed by the Glass A leagues.

 It is expected that Secretary Farrell of the National assocfation will give his decision this week in the appeal taken by the Springfield. Hartford ana New Haven clubs of the Eastern asso- citation, whose franchises were recent 1y declared forfeited. Farrell was no- tified that three clubs had signed play CTS and were ready to start the season so he was urged to make a quick de- cision, AS soon as his ruling is re- ceived. if 1t is favorable to President IO.Rourke and the three clubs in good standing, steps win be taken to award franchises and make out a schedule.
 Bobby Stow is starting well with the Fort Worth club Of the Texas league. In his first game against the St. Louis Browns second team he had a stolen base, two putouts and one assist at shortstop.
 Doc Johnston last year with Cieye land, is holding down first base for the Pittsburgh Pirates this season and getting away with the job in fine style.

IN GREAT SHAPE;
 GIANTS WIN

Dallas, Tex, March 29-The New York Giants yesterday afternoon com p1eted their annual series of baseball entertainments in Dallas and on the present visit put in two days of fero- cious hitting and rampant run-nak- ing. They took the game, 10 to 0, the first shut out they have inflicted this year.
 The pitching assignments fell to Poll Perritt and Rube Schaurer. The Giants ran up a comfortable lead early and Manager McGraw left his men to their own devices. He return ed to Marlin last evening and won't see the New York Houston battle in Corstcana today. Perritt kept the hits scattered for five innings and Schaurer kept them just as much scattered for the next four. Ferrftt was better with men on bases, which wasn't often, than at any other time. Twice he pre- vented scoring after the first man up had reached second with nobody out.
 Lobert went on a tear with the cudgel. He made a double, a triple and a horne rum Doyle made 8 home run and two singles.

ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES

1S95-Kid Lavigne defeated Jack Everhardt in 20 rounds at New York. This bout. staged at Coney Island, marked the Waterloo of Everhardt. the great southern lightweight who was able to whip every other man of his weight except the little Sagi- naw Kid. Everhardt was q New Or- leans boy, and started his ring career by fighting S5 rounds with Andy Bow en, the famous Crescent City mu1at- to. He defeated Stanton Abbott twice in 1894. and the following year tried to take the title away from La vigne. The Kid had his hands full and did not win by any wide margin. Tn 1898 Evtrhardt fought two draws with the surpassingsIy clever Austra- Han, Young Griffo, and then tackled Lawgne again, but with the same re suit. Everhardt then went to the Pacific Coast and defeated the famous Spider Kelly After that the New Orleans lad began to slip back, al, though he afterward fought draws with such good men as Kid Mozart land and Owen Zeigler.

 OF ENGAGEM IS

Boston. March 29T1e Harvard rowing management has made up a. long racing program for the spring season, which wiM keep not only the varsity and freshman squads well oc- cupfed with rowing, but will also give the class crews more importance than heretofore.
 The first event of the spring will be the Easter visit of the varsity to Annapolis during the week ending April 24, to train on the River Sew ern and take on the middies in a two-n1ile race on the last day. The varsity was beaten there last year, the seconds winning from the second navy crew.
 On May .22 the American Henley regatta at Philadelphia will have the Harvard second crew as a prominent entry. It was here that the second crew made such a clean up last year. The competitors will include Pennsyl- vania. Princeton Syracuse and prob ably Annapolis
 On the same day the Harvard var sity and freshman eights will row against Cornell at Ithaca in their annual regatta Harvard has only won once from Cornell and that was year has set out to beat their rival at all odds.
 June 26 has been set for the big day at New London. when the great varsity and freshman battles against Yale on the Thames will be held. It has not been definitely decided yet whether Harvard will row a second eight, as last year, or row 8 four pared crew. Harvard prefers the fours. while Yale favors 3 second eight.
 After the Easter holidays all the men who have been cut from the varsity eights, who are available. will be formed into club crews and matched against one another later in the season The Hayward champion class crew will meet the Yale cham pion class crew here on May 10. at which time the single scuH champion will be matched against Yaless best.
