The Maryland Aggies open their home

Park. The Marylanders were scheduled
to begin their games at home last
Saturday, but Swarthmore Cancelled at
the last moment. Cornell plays at
Swarthmore today. the first contest of
it's season. while the Maryland Aggies
have been in one combat, which they
lost to the Naval Academy.
Cornell is said to have a good team
this year. but Is reported to be some
what weak in pitchers. The only man
Of the STAFF Of last year is Russell, who
engaged in a twelve-inning battle with
the Maryland team last spring. The
loss of Regan and Bryant, two Of the
stars of former seasons. was a consid-
cradle setback. though. and Coach AL
Sharpe is finding 1t very difficult to
replace them. There is more than q
possibility that Russell will pitch to-
morrow for Cornell. as he undoubtedly
is anxious to get back at the Aggies
for the 2-to-1 defeat in the overtime
contest year ago.
Chichester or Mornhinweg will do the
hurting for the Maryland nine. Chich-
ester Is the youngster who sprang into
prominence last year by winning his
first college game from the Ithacans.
Mornhinweg is from Portchester. N. Y,
and will make a good pitcher.
The game will begin at S:45 o'clock.

Braves Awarded Compton.

CINCINNATI, April 6.-The national
commission has awarded the services
of Player Bash Compton to the Boston
National League Club. Compton de-
serted Kansas City and signed with
the ST. Louis Federals. The st. Louis
club claimed his services under the
rules of the peace agreement, but the
commission stated that as Compton had
returned to organized base ball by
signing with the Boston team previous
to the, signing of the peace agreement,
the latter team was entitled to his
services.

Connie Mack has dropped one of his
pltchlng prospects, a youngster named
Hart, who has been sent to the Charles
ton club of the South Atlantic League.
Hart is semi-pro who made a record
IN pennsylvania independent circles of
tanning thirty three batsmen in two
games of double header.
Two former catcherS of the St Louis
Cardinals who did flop to the Feds
ave been wiped off Manager Higgins
list. They are Pat OConnor, who has
gone into the saloon business in his
home town of Springfield, Mass. and
skipper Roberts: who has been given
his unconditional release and probably
will retire from the game.
When the time comes to total up the
results of interleague clashes the Ma
tional League followers will insist,
ut .oubt. that none of the
games between Braves and Athletics
be overlooked. In three games played
last week the Braves made Mack's
schoolboys. The games were all played
at the camp of the Braves at Miami.
Hugh Bedient. who has signed to
play with Roger Bresnahans Toledo
team, is in base ball not because he
needs the money, but for the love of
it. Bedient is the guy who got $1,000
cash down for signing a contract with
the Feds. and he put the money into
such good investments that it nets him
a nice little income, taken in connec-
ton with what he got when shaving for
the Red SoN.

mark set by the Government Printing
Office night before last still stands as
the high figure in the tournament. The
Printers knocked down 1,472 pins. and
the nearest any quint came to that last
night was when Rodier's Real Rollers
came through with a set of 1,470. Aft
er the first game Rodier's team looked
as if il might furnish something of a
sensation by being the first club to roll
for set of more than 1900, but it was
unable to ma intain the pace of the
opening contest In that round the ag
gregation Rodier had gathered under
his "a and White eolors, sailed into
the pins for a count of 523, the only
man to fall below the 100 mark being
Rodier himself.
A mark of only 454 in the second
game almost precluded the possibility
of zeal good score being made. The
best games by any of the players were
got by Carl and Rupert, the former
knocking down III and the latter 116.
The tenpin doubles and singles were
opened last night. Burdine and Eek
stein featured in the former and Eek
stein got the highest count in the lat
ter. Burdine and Eckstein rolled for a
total of 1.121. Burdines set was ex-
actly 500. his games being 200, 1875 and
