MACK MAY GET SHORTEN
Red Sox Outfelder Slated for Quaker
City Unless There Is
a Hitch.

PHILADELPHIA, April 14.-Unless
there is hitch. Charles Shorten. the
wonderful young outfielder of the
world champion Red Sox, viii become
a member of the Athletics.
Connie Mack has made big offer to
Jack Barry, his former second baseman
and now skipper of the Red Sox. for
the outfielder, who, without a doubt.
would add immense strength to the
Athletics outfield.
1t is understood that Barry is dis
posed to accept Mack's offer and that
the deal will be closed shortly. Mack
made it possible for Barry to fall into
a good thing at Boston, and the latter
feels that he should repay the debt.
AS he has three star fy chasers in
Lewis, Walker and Hooper, he could
spare Shorten without weakening his
team.
Shorten was one of the heroes of the
world series He took part in two
games and batted .571. In the cham
pionship season he batted .2Oo in fifty
three games. He is a left-handed bats
man. swift on his feet and a great
ground coverer.
He is only twenty-five years old and
is native of Minooka. Pa.

NAVAL PROGRAM MADE UP.
Final Batch of Bills Reported by
House Committee.

A handful of naval bills. just report
ed to the House from the committee
on naval affairs. practically completes
the work of that committee In prepar-
ing the floating forces of the country
for the present war, and this is taken
by the House to indicate that the navy
is as well taken care of in legislation
and appropriations as the administra-
ton could wish.
One of the bills reported amends eX-
listing laws regarding the government
control of ships and ship building ia
cilities of the country SO as to include
use any and all boats. lighters. tugs,
etc at the proper compensation. An
other increases the age limit for Off
GERS of the naval reserve from thirty
fve years to fifty years: another al

tail naval officers without restriction

of enlistment term of men of minority

one who takes up the Job of pitching
to the Griffmen these days. will be able
to go through with it for nine innings.
John Henry, who is referred to locally
as 1.-The Robespierre Of the base ball
revolution" is regarded in Philadelphia
.. S. A Foster also is highly thought
of here. Says of the Quaker
scribes:
"Its the mystery of base ball that
Eddie Foster doesn't bat .33o or better
each season. Nobody in the country
can place the ball or engineer the
run-and-hit better than this former
Mackman, ex-Phillie and erstwhile
Yankee. Pitchers love him like they
do sore arms.
Connie Mack Is not downcast over
the rather poor showing his revamped
Athletics have made to date. we
haven't won yet" says the tall tacti-
clan, but We have the material, ana
will get going some of these days"
At tanning bee in connection with
a banquet of an amateur athletic or
ganization here Mack fell into remi-
niscent mood, told of his start in the
base ball world and carried the story
of his own experience as a player and
manager up to the present day.
There was nothing in my whole
base ball career" he said. (which hurt
me more than to break up my famous
team. I have been scored by many
Philadelphians for trading those great
players to other clubs, but it was for
the good of the game and not for
financial gain that we made the move.
I'VE have made a sorrowful showing
in the last two years, but A great ball
club cannot be built in a season. I'm
not going to make any predictions for
this year. Owing to the fact that there
are seven strong clubs in the league.
the end of the schedule might again
find us tailenders. But from the ma
terial I now have it would not take
much improvement to put us in the run
ming"
Manager Griffith declares Mack's club
looks to be 80 per cent improved over
last year, and he thinks that after suf-
ficient time has elapsed to permit of
the development of teamwork the Ath-
letics will be so per cent stronger than
in 1916.

THAN EVER
Walter Johnson Looks Un-
usually Good to Athletics.
TRAINED BY NEW METHOD

PHILADELPHIA. April 14-Mackmen
easily can account for not hitting
Walter johnson on opening day, but
several of the troupe can't explain why
they failed to connect with the delivery
of Bert Gallia. Opinion in the Mack
camp appears unanimous that Walter
Johnson is a better pitcher today than
he was five years ago. Only Amos
Strunk and Stuny McInnis. veterans
of the AS, can attest to this. All the
youths had to say when this topic was
discussed yesterday. Friday, the 18th.
when the weatherman won the decision
effect that if Johnson were a better
pitcher than five years ago, they are
perfectly satisfied they did not break
into the American League at that time
A brave scribe told the Mackmen that
he heard Johnson has been practicing
on n splitter this spring and would
foist it on the batsmen in the near fu-
ture. This started something. A volley
of comment followed. Stuffy McInnis
asked for the floor and this is what he
said about Johnson, his present day
pitching and the unbaptiZed splitter:
1T will be murder in the first degree
when Walter starts shooting that spit
ter at U.s. He is not the most pleasant
guy in the world to meet at present,
and. SO far as we are concerned. We
won't register a single kick if he
doesn't improve
Take it from me. it takes a lot of
nerve to stand up there and face that
fast one of his. and it will take more
when he uses the splitter and the ball
shoots in all directions. AS it is we are
happy when we get a few fouls off
Walter, who is better than ever this
year and needs no splitter to help him

Columbia Club Members Not Enthu'
siastic Over Dunwoodie Plan.

The members of the Columbia Coun-
try Club are not taking the proposition
advanced by the Dunwoodie Country
Club officials very seriously. A short
time ago the board of directors of the
Dunwoodie club agreed to utilize the
unused parts of the golf course to grow

of which was to go to a fund Tor the

York paper asking what the members
Of his club thought of the project and
whether he officially favored 1t. Having
tive members of the club. Harlan does
not think that 1t will meet with an en-
thusiastic response. He had already
anticipated plowing up a plot OF ground
and planting 1t to potatoes, but as for
the project being furthered by the per-
soual assistance of the members, that is
hardly feasible. According to compu-
tations made by the DunWoodie officials
on the basis that the 1000 clubs in the
limited States do s they are doing the
net result to the ambulance service of
the United States will be in the neigh
borhood of $S,O0O.000. Harlan has fig
ured out the cost of growing garden
truck and finds that 1t would cost more
in labor and space used than it would
bring at prevailing market prices.
Several clubs in the metropolitan dis
trict have announced their intention to
turn over all entrance fees in club COM
petitions to the Army. Navy and Red
Cross funds.

The letter contains a proposition for
Sam to meet Jack in the South Ameri-
can city"
Il have booked Johnson for twenty
two exhibitions in Brazil" writes Clark.
"and am busy now booking him through
the rest Of South America. Jack will
leave Barcelona about the middle of
April. arriving at Rio Janeiro about
May 3.
Jack, according to his latest letter
to me. is in fine form and eager for
the campaign in South America. l have
no doubt that there still are many good
fights left in the former champion. A
bout between Jack and Langford ought
to prove a strong card in Ruenos Aires,
where both men are well known--Jack
by reputation and Sam personally"
Langford's friends believe he will
agree to meet johnson over any kind
Of route. provided the financial induces
ments are satisfactory. Sans expert

the big "carnivaT' at Buenos. Aires last
summer were anything but pleasant

Legislation May Be Enacted to Keep
Food Producers at Work.

Plans to keep the country's agricul-

production which may be expected in

expression in legislation to be framed

Representative Lever recently visited
