Game at $3.50 o'clock.

Connie Mack, though now In the dol
drums OF baseball. has SHOWN far too
great a Skill In the past to convince
folks that his Athletics will long remain
the league chocolate cake. Before now
Connie has taken hold OF an outfit made
UP wholly of transformations and has
evolved from II q worlds champion. He
did not always have McInnes. Collins.

from here and there, and weld out OF

The ,outfeld, with Oldring. Strunk.
land Walsh, looks much the same as OF
tyore. The reconstruction hasn't hit the
garden trio yet, though II will In time.
Pitchers and catchers Is one of Con-
MES greatest needs. With Wnllie
Schang unable to play. the backrtop::
ping devolves upon Murphy And
Meyer, two youngsters, who have boon
doing surprisingly good work thia
spring. But they lack experience and
this may prove costly.
Bush. Majors and Myers are the only
twirlers who have been holding their
own this spring so far, though Miuot
is developing rapidly and should be up
around the top when the end comes.
Connie is content to experiment this
year and possibly next year, but ~
that time he win have picked real

tionnl pastime.

shortstop, has been siven his nncondi-
tional release by Johnny McGraw. Mar

Ed Charity. the young catcher from
Minneapolis, who has been decorating
the bench most acceptably of late. is
expected to get into game or two this
week. Charity came here with Eood
record as a batsman. but II Is not be-
lieved that he will show much of this
ability unless played regularly.
