Chattanooga, March 7.-No Southern league club in all the history of the or ganization ever undertook such strenu- ous training trip as that upon which the Lookouts embarked yesterday and but few minor league teams ever faced such a crowded preseason schedule.
 Elberfeld and his athletes will not be seen by Chattanoogans again until they come here to play Atlanta on Andrews field on the afternoon of Friday, April 13. The 1917 schedule will then be under way, the season starting April 12 with Chatta- nooga in Atlanta. Before the official opening the locals will have played at least 25 regular games and possibly more.
 Work is to be the slogan of Kid Fiber field beginning tomorrow, he told the bat tery squad that reported here when they gathered at baseball headquarters yester- day to receive tickets for Texas. Secre- tion games, suggested that two days at Orange be left open.
 You'll want rest about that time, Kid" he said

The Naval academy crew management has been nandicaped by the unsettled international situation and no racing dates have been announced. Syra- cuse has also failed to make public it's crew contests.
 Other varsity rowing centers, however, have been active and Princeton, Cornell, Columbia, Pennsylvania, Harvard and Yale will all enter eight-oared crews in dual, triangular and championship re- gattas. Owing to the short season there will be several conflicting dates, which is unfortunate, since it will cause a dis tribution of interest on days when two contests of importance are to be rowed on widely separated courses.

 Manager Enneking's letter is as fol- lows
 Sporting Editor Age-Herald:
 Dear Sir: Regretting that the Y. NJ. c. A. has not accepted our challenge for a series of games to settle state cham pionship." We would have preferred set ting the matter on the basketball court, but the Y. M. c. A. evidently preferred U settle the matter through compara- tive scores.
 The Y. M C. A. base their claim be- cause they twice defeated the University of Alabama. while our team lost it's game at Tuscaloosa The Y. M. c. A. failed to take into consideration that our team was seriously handicapped through loss of three regular players from sickness or injury, and that in addition Seals was forced from the game because of injury to his ankle. Therefore, the loss of that game should not decide the state cham pionship.
 The Y M. c. A, in their claim, abso- lutely ignore the results of the Wander bilt university games if the "state cham pionship is to be awarded upon compara- tive scores, it is not reasonable to ex- clude games with teams from other states. The Y. M. c. A. was decisively beaten by Vanderbilt team, whereas the B. A. C. team won handily from Wander bilt. Everyone comedies Vanderbilts team was much stronger than the Uni versity of Alabama team, and the result of those games more clearly show relative strength of the two local teams.
 Therefore, we feel that we have if any thing a more legitimate claim to the state championship than the Y. M. c. A., and on behalf of the Birmingham Athletic club we make claim to such title, since the Y. M. c. A. has refused to settled the matter on the basketball court, and we rest the decision with local fans.
