M'GRAW EXPECTS
FLAG WITH FED
STARS TO HELP
Kauff, Rousch, Rariden and
Anderson to Strengthen
Giants, Believes Muggsy

If Muggsy McGraws prediction of the
1916 National League race were to prove
a fact. the New York club will start on
a pennant-winning campaign when the
Giants open their season with the Phillies
here on Wednesday. McGraw bases his
dope on the acquisition of Federal League
stars and. with Kauff, Rousch, Rariden
and Anderson in the lineup, Muggsy
can't see any other team with a tee-
scope.
The Giants are going to play good ball
this year" said the New York Nationals
manager. They're going to come back.
They're going to wind up the 1916 season
away up in the first division. They're
going to wind up the pennant race in
position I'm used to seeing the Giants wind
up their season.
This years team is much stronger than
that of last year. 1t has been strengthened
where 1t needed strengthening, and it will
grow stronger as the season progresses.
The men have not yet responded to the
ideal playing spirit, but they will; I'll
see to that.
"Bill Rarden will fill big gap in the
catching department. He was the best
of the Fed receivers, and will earn the
applause of New York fans by his work
for the Giants He is a much better
catcher now than The was when he was
with the Braves few seasons ago.

Eddie Rousch is another good outfielder
Competent judges who watched his work
in the Federal League tell me that he
was one of the best outhelders in that
organization From what have already

BASEBALL MOGULS STERNLY
REFUSE TO LEARN LESSONS
"Early Openers" Are the Height of Foolishness
Snow This Year Is Ample
Proof of This
BY GRANTLAND RICE

TTTf1 WONDER IL this last April snow
wv storm will be enough to teach mag
mates Of the National and American
Leagues the right lesson9
1t ought TO be--but we doubt II.
For there are too many people in this
bizarre universe who learn all too slowly,
who profit nothing from experience and
who would rather stand pat In bog
than to walk out on dry land.
Beating II In
When t6 major league clubs came out
OF the warm sun of the far South into a
series of snowstorms and wintry gales.
losing most of the good they had gained,
II would seem to the casual noncombatant
that the lesson had now been driven In
deep enough to stick.
Big league magnates have found. year
after year, that mid-April is two weeks in
advance Of spring and baseball weather.
but they still persist i'm bucking fate and
butting the same old stone wall of
calendric destiny. as you might say.
The Right Proof
To prove that it is utter foolishness
will get you nowhere with many OF these
''early openers"
But TO show conclusvely that it is bad
business may get one hearing And this
is easy proof.
The best business that a good many
clubs do is through the first month of the
race. before they have hit the chutes All
clubs draw, on the average more people
in the late spring than in the fall The
game is then young and fresh, with
keener appeal, after a winter of repose.
But. in place of being able to take adj
vantage of this early season eaBerness and
desire, over half the games as now ar
ranged for the first month are either post
noned or PLAYED on raw, windy, rain
threatening days that cut the crowd in
half.
So the owners not only lose the full
worth of their ball players, who are set
back In playing condition, but they lose
a good many thousand dollars through
trying to force the best part of their sea-
son upon public under conditions almost
totally unfit.
This makes IL hard on the fan. on the
player and on the club owner. Who is
helped by an early start? Nobody but the
undertaken. And yet, knowing all this,
club owners still refuse to be budged from
the most insane stand that a body of
supposedly good business men ever took.
Constant Dripping
They say that constant dripping wears
away stone. Unless club owners make
big change in the starting time next year
you can add this line to the old adage
hut 1t doesn't wear away BONE"
The old ones have stood pat, but we
would like to see some of the new mag
nate entries-men like Captain Huston,
Colonel Rupert, Percy Haughton and
Charlie Weeghman-make stand for this
1917 program: First, the playing season
not to open a day before April 20, prefer
ably not before April %. Second. no eN-
hibltion game of any sort allowed in ma
jor league cities before the first cham
pionship game is played.

LOCAL FANS ARE
EAGERLY BUYING
PHTLLY TICKETS
Record-Breaking Crowd Is
Predicted for Opening Day
Game With Giants
FINAL PRACTICE TODAY

From the offices of the Phillies, in the
Stock Exchange Building, today, came the
announcement that there had been an un-
precedented seat sale for the opening day
baseball game. Never in the history of
the local National League club have the
fans shown the interest at the beginning
of the season that they have thus far
this year.
The tickets which were put on sale at
Spaulding's and Gimbel Brothers were
gobbled up by eager fans quickly. An
other allotment has been sent to these
stores in order that all the fans who so
desire may get their pasteboards in ad-
vance and not have to crowd into the long
line at the 5th and Huntingdon streets
gates tomorrow afternoon.
Bright Prospects
az expect that we will sell every seat
in the park If the weather tomorrow is
like that of today" said Secretary Guy
Constans. at seems that everybody is
taking lot of interest in the game with
the Giants. and am sure that the weather
is the only thing that could possibly prevent
our having a record-breaking crowd for
the opening game"
Bill Shettsline. with his office force. was
busy all day getting affairs in shape at
the ball park for the opening day. The
diamond and outfeld have been put in
fine shape, and II there Is no bad weather,
and Mr. Bliss assures us that 1t will be
fair and warmer, things will take on a
worlds series aspect around the bewitch-
ing hour of 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
Final Practice
The Philly players, along with Pat
Moran, went to the ballyard this MORN
ing, but did no practicing. The majority
of the men left the park rather early,
in order either to find new lodging places
or to install themselves for the season in
their former haunts.
After lunch the players began tricklng
back into the park, and by o'clock
they were in uniform for the final prac-
tice of the pre-campaign season.
Batting practice took UP the greater
part of the players time. Cravath, Lu-
derus and the other heavy sluggers sent
the pills flying into the left-field bleach
ers, against the centre-held wall and over
the right-feld wall into Broad street Al
Demaree, Chalmers, and RiXey did the
work in the box while the batters were
hammering out innumerable base hits.
However, II was stated on good authority
after the workout that there were enough
hits left in the bats to beat the New York.
ers in the opening clash.
1t was also announced this afternoon
by the Philly management that there
would be delegation of New York fans
over to see tomorrow's game. About two
hundred of these metropolitan bugs have
ordered n section just behind the Giants
bench.

| We believe there are few older mag
mates who would join in this crusade. and
the combination should make fight for
the new program that would know no

What IL Would Mean
! Such program, IL carried through
next spring, would mean this
First Good openlng-day weather, on
| an average. insuring fast-runnng start
| for the new campaign.
| Second. Better playing condition for
| the players, who would have chance to
| hold the physical form they have built UP
in the South without any setbacks
Third Keener interest, through lack of
n lot of foolish exhibition games that take
| away the edge and dull the appetite.
Fourth. More money for the magnate
more, pleasure for the fan, better condl-
tion for the player and better baseball
| for all.
The Transfer of Speaker
Iris Speakers shift to Cleveland means
n big shift in the American League race.
with the Texan covering acres of soil
on defense and batting .330 on attack, the
Red Sox were pronounced favorites in the
younger corral.
Now they are certainly not to be rated
| above the Tigers or White Sox, and the
odds against them, in place of being to
g. are now to 1.
Speaker was good enough to win at
least 10 games in the field or at bat that
an ordinary or good average outtielder
would miss. And the Red Sox are not
strong enough to spot the Tigers or White
Sox, or even the Yanks, 10 games.
The Blow to Boston
This old Red Sox outfleld was the great
est defensive trio in the game. II made
the pitching look better than It actually
was by a number of degrees.
And Speaker. ranging far and wide In
centre, was almost half this outtleld The
Red Sox will never win without him unless
the centrefelder who takes his place is
quite a bit of star and well above
outfielding average.
Speaker was not only a power on de-
tense, but, with the Texan gone to Cleve-
land. the Red Sox haven't a 800 hitter left
in the fold. So there will be another blow
delivered at the clubs offensive strength.
with Speaker away. and with Joe Wood,
who won Is games last season, also gone,
the Red Sox's prospects fade from crimson
to dull brown. If the pitching slips FOL
an extra breath It will be hard going for
the club that now holds the championship
of the game.
Who says there Is nothing new under
the sun, with Collins and Jackson in
Chicago. Speaker In Cleveland and Baker
in New York?
Pat Moran isn't bothering about Speak
err: but he is still sore thatOwner Lannin
didn't sell Duffy Lewis last September to
the Fiji Island League.
There used to be a saying in baseball
that a club owner couldn't afford to sell
n star player. But the modern club own

WHAT'S DOING AMONG FISHERMEN

active until about the middle of May. and
then their feeding time commences about
the time most fishermen are hiking toward
their camps or hotels for supper. The
brown trout that now thrive in the noun
tain streams of this State inherit many OF
the habits of their progenitors who came
from Kaiser Bits land. They dine late,
grow big and fat and drive out all other
fish inhabting the same waters These
alien fish attain much larger size than
our native brook trout and will thrive in
water of a much higher temperature than
the native brook trout.
Anglers who believe in casting big lures
for big fish have learned that when ang-
ling for brook trout in the daytime these
fish will rise best to the smallest arti-
fetal flies, viz. the midges and there is
more sport in landing fish Weighing from
three to seven pounds on light constructed
hooks to which the midge files are tied
At night, however, brown trout look for
quantity and will then take bass flies or
any other lure, live or artificial, that is
offered them. Be sure your tackle is
strong, as there are bagfuls of chance in
trying to land one of these big fellows
after dark.
