Giants there will be no more indian
players with that club and that
when Jim Thorpe's contract expires
next fall he will be turned loose.
The Giants own pitcher Jim Blue

WALTER NORRIS, president of

there will be no salary boosting in

dire results for any manager whom

EASTERN sport critics are now
bowling for a bout between
Freddie Welsh and Packy McFar-
land at the welterweight limit of
142 pounds. 1t would be a wonder
full battle but it is questionable if
Packy can get down to 142. In
fact, it is doubtful if he can do any
better than 147 at the ringside.

CHAMPION Jess Willard is almost
a prohibitive favorite over Frank
Moran for their bout on Saturday

the Browns to beat the field.

The Brownies may not win the cheese
cloth but it's certain that they'll be
battling for it all through the 1874
game campaign. They have power in
every department, and. best of all, the
secondary defence is almost as strong
as the first line of troops that Jones
will send into the field.

pitchers to choose from in making up
his string Of regulars. The chances
are that he will select the following

feared by the FL Paso athletes in
the Y. M. c. A. Hexathlon. Flint

year but unless they have improved
since last year there is a chance that
the locals will beat them out.
Geneva, N. Y, is also looked upon as
having a chance in this division. It
is a comparatively new association
and there is much enthusiasm in the
little city. Results will be made
known about April /.
