By Il. G. BYRD.

Three Of the big university base ball
teams are due to play here this week.
Yale, Princeton and Cornell are sched-
uled to appear in contests against mines
on local fields within the next six days.
The Dark Blue is booked for con-
tests with the American League club
Princeton is to meet the Georgetown
nine Saturday, and Cornell has games
with the Maryland Aggies Thursday
and Friday.
This begins the general appearance
of the big northern mines in the south.
One or two teams have already play
ed in Virginia and North Carolina, but
the real southern trips are yet to come
Lafayette has been going against the
mines in South Carolina and North
Carolina for the past few days with
varying success. while the Amherst and
University Of Vermont teams have
played some games.
The Yale-Georgetown and Princeton
Georgetown games should be OF the
usual interest. The contests in which
the Maryland Aggies are to face Cor
had scheduled with one of the big uni
versities. Whether the Farmers will
make a very good showing is hard to
say. but the games booked with Cor
nell. Harvard and other big northern
teams this year mark departure II

institution of arranging schedules, q
departure that probably will be even
greater in another year.
Joe Davis, one of the runners who

Among the records that have been sent

Clark Griff1th's only contribution to the
present Washington lineup Is Chic
Gandil. whom he purchased the first

far as infielders and outflelders are
concerned. this is absolutely true, but
1t is doubtful IL there Is another man
ager in the majors who has developed
as many pitchers as has Grinath In the
three years that he has been In charge
Of the Washington team. This distinc-
tion will be demonstrated during the
coming campaign. provided the work OF
several Of the young twirlers comes up
to expectations.

City for further development, none OF
these young slabmen has cost the
Washington club red penny. and yet
they may be of great value to the team
even during the coming season.
This material owes its success and
acquisition by the Washington club en-
tirely to Griffith. He gave the young
sters a chance and under his tuition
they have shown marked improvement
There are not many ball clubs which
can boast of having five young pitchers
scarcely out Of their teens. who did not
cost anything and are now capable OF
winning q majority Of their games. II
is an achievement Of which Grihith can
be proud. 1t shows that the Nationals
manager Ia a clever teacher Of tho art
OF which he was a master In his
day. though to a certain extent Nick
Altrock Is deserving Of much credit;
but he was Griffiths choice for the po-
sition he holds with the team.
Despite the fact that rumors Of all
sorts as to the probable makeup OF
the Nationals have been printed. there
in these columns that the team of last
year would probably be held intact for
the coming opening will be realized.
Griffith, OF course, would like to have
more batting strength on his team. but
he does not propose to sacrifice any
thing else to accomplish this end. For
this reason he will very likely start In
with exactly the same lineup which
made the fight in last years race. On
the whole this Is sure to be a stronger
