Players Have Had Strenuous Time

DALLAS, Texas. April To-day
marked the start of the homeward jour
ney of Chicagos White Sox. thirty finely
trained athletes, under the management
of Clarence Rowland, quitting the 1916
spring training camp at Mineral Wells
''all set for six months of pas1iming
for glory and gilt.
Eleven contests will be played on the
trip north. The game with Dallas
scheduled for today was called off be-
cause of the storm. April u the fun
begins in earnest, for the ancient De-
troit enemy will be at Comiskey'S park,
and pastimes will count for something
more than pretty spring training rec
ord.
To use the trainers expression, and he
ought to be the best judge. the South
side players to man are better condi-
toned right now to begin the long sea-
son than any team Coiniskey ever mas
mad. Not one day has been missed be-
cause of bad weather since the squad
arrived at Mineral Wells March a. and
the workouts have been long, hard and
tireso1ne but during all this time there
has not been a squawk against the
methods enforced by Manager Rowland
and he has been d hard taskmaster.

which was to see the president tomor-

However, when the IA new arrivals

The railway presidents, augmented by

of cooperation from the interests to

president may have in mind regarding
