 Burkerr may be native of West Virginia, but he qualified for member shipe~s the order of Missourians.
 The Fsedera1s have nothing to of fer said Bdrkett yesterday, which is not in line with the belief one might get from the. dispatch from New York in which the name of the manager of the Busters was mention ed Accordfng to the dispatch. which enlanateds from Federal league sources; Burkert is not, over-enthu- siast1c in his support Of organized baseball.

T 5 until eraduation, the veteran bali player turned down the proposition. as he figured he could not do the coaching and act as scout at the same time.
 The college authorities have writ ten him twice since then asking him to accept the berth even if he could not spend all the time required there. When Mccarthy mentioned the mat ter to President Lannin the latter at once urged him to get into conmuni- cation with the Vermont boys as he figured he could spare Tommy long enough from his labors to help the coI1egians out.
