ed out at both practices today. Larry
Is friend Of Joe Judge and is here to
reduce the extra weight that he has
gathered since he gave up the game three
years ago.
At the evening practice Manager Eu-
bank, Of the Augusta team, and Third
Baseman Freddy Heck, Of the local club.
took their turns at fielding and hitting
with the Nationals
Thomas, Gallia, Jameson, Craft and
Du Mont were worked on the ning1ng
slab during the evenlg. while Henry.
Charity and Eubanks took turns behind
the plate. The regulars infield was made
up OF Howard Shanks at first base, Eddie
Foster, second base; Joe Leonard, third
base, and Capt. Mcbride at short. Out
fielders Smith. Milan and Rice were kept
busy chasing fiys from one corner to the
other by Uncle Nick Altrock.
Griff intends to keep these combinations
working along at this clip until Tuesday
or Wednesday. when inter-club games
will be held. The Old Fox is impressed
with the condition of the young pitchers
who have been in camp during the past
week and is high in his praise Of their
work.
Two players are still to report, namely,
Walter johnson and Cube" Acosta. The
Augusta fans were slightly disappointed
when informed that johnson would not
report before the middle Of the next
week, as these Dixie" fans believe that
the big smoke is the greatest Of them all
and are anxious to get one glimpse OF
him breezing them over.

.ISEMANN'S AMBITION
sure OF REALIZATION
No Doubt But What Tournament Will
Be a Record Breaker.

President George Isemann. Of the
Washington City Duckpin Association.
has one ambition, and one only, as ia.
as the bowling game goes. 1t is not Ia
become the greatest pin spiller in the
game, neither is II to attain an ef-
hcency rating with such stars as Krauss.
HALEY an others.
Isemann has set his heart and SOU!
on making the coming seventh annual
tournament, of the Washington Duckpin
Association. which is to get under way
on April 80. the most successful, not
only financially, but in point Of number
Of teams, doubles and individuals en-
tered. that has ever been held in the
National Capital And II present indica-
tiQns are pointing in the right direction
the popular newly-elected president Of
the association is in a fair way to have
that ambition realized.
At the present time there are over fifty
leagues in operation in this city and the
team membership will be found to run
close to 800 quints This will mean tina:
there are in the National Capital
upwards OF 1000 men who are connected
with some regularly organized bowling
club.
Sometime ago. Treasurer Harry HALEY.
along with several other boosters, visited
quite a number of the different alleys
throughout the city. and gave exhibit
tons. At the conclusion Of these sets.
HALEY and those with him, made 1t e
point to impress on the bowlers that
the coming tourney is to be the greatest
ever held, locally, and that they were
expecting a number of entries from those
that made the drives where they were
bowling their home drives.
President Isemann plans to call II
meeting OF the executive committee
within the next week or so, and at thai
time perfect many details that are il
need of attention.
