YANKEES SUFFER FROM RAIN
Immense Crowd Expected at Gin
cinnati, but Game Is Postponed.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CINCINNATI. April 1.-The second
game of the series of three between the
Yankees and the Cincinnati Reds.
scheduled for this city this afternoon,
was called off on account of rain. The
postponement undoubtedly cost the
Yankee owners considerable sum, as
today's game was to furnish Redland
fans with their first view Of Charley
Herzog's 1915 team. 1t was dsappoint-
ing to local admirers of Lee Magee, a
resident of Cincinnati. and Neal Brady,
whose home is at Ludlow, KY, just
across the river from Cincinnati. No
greater hope was held tonight for a
pleasant Sunday.
The Yankees headquarters here was
not entirely devoid of interest. despite
the postponement. Dick kinsella, who
has figured so long in the stories of the
Giants met the Yanks on their arrival
here and a few minutes sufficed to
make him a scout of the club. Kinsella
signed a contract for one year and he
will work with Joe Kelley.
Home Run Baker will be an absentee
from Mondays game at Wheeling. He
will leave here tomorrow night for Bal
timore and will report to Donovan next
Tuesday.

AITCHISON A PUZZLE.
Pitcher With Everything, But Just
Can't Make Good.

BROOKLYN. April Raleigh Aitchi-
son, the southpaw pitcher who will
labor for Milwaukee this year for
$1.325, and collect the difference be-
tween that and $4,000 from BROOKLYN,
with which he had an ironclad contract
that expires at the end of the 1916 sea-
son. is puzzle. writes a Brooklyn
critic. He was a first -class pitcher in
the International League and started
well with Brooklyn in 1914. Uncle Will
bert Robinson thought Aitchison one of
the brainiest young pitchers he ever
saw, and on his advice the southpaw
was signed to a two-year contract at
$4,000 year. Last season he was not
worth his keep and was early shipped
to Chattanooga, which also found him
lacking and sent him back. The reason
for Aitchison's failure to make good is
not clear. He seemed to have the
ability and went through all the mo-
tions Of a smart pitcher, just as Man
ager Robinson thought he was, yet the
opposing batters hammered the tar out
of him. Nothing he sent up was eff
fective. although there was plenty of
stuff on the ball. He is probably
doomed to be one of those perennial
minor league stars who simply cannot
reach in the majors.

zog, as he led his tribe Of Red Legs
out of the Central depot today on their
arrival from the spring training camp.
Naturally it would jar anybody to
lose lot of games. even exhibition
games. battles that count for nothing
in the seasons schedule. Still. it's only
fair to regard these games as merely
practice games. and as important only
in this sense, that they may show us
an early season weakness and unex-
pected faults"
Herzog's club doesn't size up as a
pennant-winning aggregation. It's a
club that must go at top speed at all
time to keep out of the second division.
The record the Reds made in their
exhibition games down south would be
enough to make Cincinnati fans think
the club is woefully weak. if it wasn't
for the fact that in 1914 and 1915 the
Reds cleaned up in their exhibition
games and then failed to do anything
worth mentioning in the regular sea-
son.
This years club is going to make or
break Buck Herzog a manager. At
two shots as pilot of the Reds Buck ran
eighth and seventh. If his club fails to
do good this year it's a cinch Cincinnati
will have new manager next season.
Buck built the club he will lead this
season.
