two weeks to recover from this tOnsi-.
Tits attack and that means he will be
slightly set back in peTfecting de-
fensive arrangement with Eddie Col
Inns around second base. Because
of the mechanical ability of the two
players, however, they will overcome
this difficulty before the regular sea-
son opens.

When Polly McLarry was secured
from Louisville by the Cubs there
were some remarks from minor
league circles to the effect that the
big fellow would fall down in base
running and would be slow in defend
ing his position at second base.
So far these failings have not de-
veIoped. McLarry has protected the
keystone ably, considering he is play
ing among strange fellows, and has
had but ten days to acquaint himself
with their peculiarities. His hitting
has been ambitious. He stings the
ball hard and on a line, much after
the manner of Vic Safer and Jack
Fourier, two of, the hardest hitters
in the busienss. The fact that he hits
from the off side of the plate height
ems the comparison.
His baserUnning has been just fair.
At any rate, he will be big improve
ment over Sweeney and has the adj
vantage of youth and the opportunity
to learn and develop under big league
instruction. He slapped two hits yes

Joe Tinker is the first Chicago
manager to rattle the cans. He at
tached one to Walter Roesinger, an
oUtfelding candidate from the Uni
versity of Michigan. The yOungster
did not look like the goods to Tinker.
To make up for this Joe discovered
a good prospect in Guy Beard, the
semi-pro pitcher form Princeton, ILL.,
Tinker's attention was first attracted
to Beard when the Feds played at
Princeton last year and he signed him
for trial this spring. So far Beard
has had no chance to show his goods
but he has a nice, easy motion and is
sal dto resemble Mordecai Brown.
The Feds are still handicapped by
bad weather, all practice being taken
indoors. They have the advantage Of
a big building where there is room to
throw the, ball around.
There have been no sensational de-
VeIopments in the suit over the re-

strife.
Accompanied by the composer. the
Indian princess sang Csdman's THE
Land of the Sky Blue Water" deli
cate, weird, strangely appealing song of
q captive maid. Her Blanket Song by
Troyer, and the Red Rose, an adoption
from the Cheyenne tribe, were received

baskets of flowers, the beautiful prin-
cess may well be said to have created a
