Giants Play
Two Games at
Training Camp
All Regulars in Action
No Loafing Allowed in
McGraw's School
BY CHARLES A. TAYLOR

Marlin, Tex, March S.-The Giants
played twelve innings of real baseball
to-day, six innings in the morning
and six in the afternoon. The usual
long drills IN batting, fielding and
pitching took place before and after
these contests, with the result that
the pupils attending McGraw's train
ing school had no opportunity to loaf.
Tho afternoon game saw all the
regulars in action for the first time
this year, but McGraw was careful
not to put all Of the veterans on one
team. 1t may be he was fearful that
the cubs, being in better condition
than the older players, would score
victory. Such an outcome might af-
feet seriously the morale OF the men
he is certain will bring another pen
nant to the flag pole at the Polo
Grounds.
Whatever may have been the rea-
son for McGraw's action in this re
gard, the teams were officially named
the Schaefers and the Loberts, and
comprised the following:
Schaefers- Burns, left field; Wit
ter, right field; Zimmerman, third

Robertson, right field; Murray, left
field; Thorpe. centre field; Rodriguez,

and Jaynes. pitchers.
Bowl of Chill the Prize
The score was to ] in favor of the
Schaefers, which, in accordance with
an agreement made between Germany
and Hans before the game, means that
Hans will have TO purchase bowl OF
chilli con carne for his successful
rival some time before midnight to
night.
The Schacfers were the first TO
cross the plate, making a run IN the
second inning. Joe Wagner was
thrown out at first by Pep Young;
Walter Holke made his third triple IN
three days, line drive just inside
the left field foul line. Kilduf hit
to Fletcher and took second while
the latter. Zimmerman and Kreuger
were running down Holke. who had
dashed for the plate on kilduf's hit.
McCarty sent the bail over Thorpe's
head for a double and Kilduf scored.
McCarty was thrown out trying to
stretch his hit.
The Loberts tied things up in the
third frame. Young singled after two
men were out, and on the hit and run
Herzog drove the ball safely TO right
field Young kept right on going and
scored when Heinie Zimmerman let
Writer'S throw go through him.
The winning run for the Schaefers
came in the sixth inning, when Jim
Thorpe and Davey Robinson fell fast
asleep and allowed Heinie Zimmerman
fy over second 20 drop safely. Heinie
took two bases during this siesta.
Benny Kauff, who had bad day with
the bat. was unable TO help Tim home,
but Jack Murray decided there was no
necessity of playing an extra inning,
so considerably let Joe Wager's easy
left slip through his fingers.
Circus Catch for Burns
George Burns again entered the lime
light when he raced to the left neld
fence and caught Young's foul fly with
his bare hand. Leo Witter gave more
evidence of his all-around ability IN the
first inning by making a beautiful
throw from deep right, which cut down
Fletcher at the plate. Walter HOlke
brought Marlin fandom 70 its collective
feet by jumping high in the air 70 grab
a fierce liner from the bat Of Kreuger.
The score by innings follows:
