Eddie Grant, Former Giant, Lays DOtCn LGlU
Books to Take Up Rifle in u. S. Service

One Of the first ballplayers OF ma
tional reputation to join the colors
was Eddie Grant. inhelder, formerly
with the Giants. Cincinnati Reds and
Phlllies. who has been accepted for
the officers reserve corps at Platts-
burg.
Grant gave up baseball at the close
Of the 1915 season TO begin practicing
law in New York
If Grants action is any criterion
ball players as a general rule will
not be found to be slackers in the
great war. Although he had quit base.
ball Grant had as much at stake as
many active players He had been
pacticing law just long enough TO
build up a practice which is sure to
bo lost while he is at the front
Although Grant was in the National
league for half n dozen years and
took part in the last world series be-
tween the Giants and Athletics, he
could never be classed as great
bail player.
For three years he played third base
at Philadelphia and was sent to Gin
cinnat. where he was used as util-
ity infelder until traded to New York
in 1913.
He was with the Giants in 1913,
1914 and 1915 as utility inhelder and
was often used as pinch hitter or
substitute runner
His best year in baseball was 1914.
when he batted .277 in SO games and
was one of the best fielding third
basemen in the league.

MIR. LONG TAKES UP FARMING.

Samuel Wesley Long, of this city, is
TO become a tiller of the soil, having
bought farm on the Chester road, four
miles from West Chester, and eighteen
miles from Philadelphia. The farm was
at one time owned by DR.. Hoskins, a
prominent Chester county physician, but
is now occupied by John NJ. Grimes,
from whom it was purchased by Mr..
Long.
The farm, which will be known as
Boniield, consists of about ten acres.
planted in corn, potatoes, Strawberries
and truck. The peach orchard has more
than 400 trees, and there are apple,
pear, ounce and cherry trees on the
place. The farmhouse is OF stone and
was built more than one hundred years
ago
Mr.. Longs purpose i'm buying the
place was TO provide for the future as
at the time negotiations were begun
for the purchase of the farm he was
preparing to enter the army as am off
Ger in the field section of the ordnance
department, having completed course
of study under United States army
officers i'm Philadelphia with the under
standing that he would be examined foi
an army commission. However Mr.
Long has not been ordered before tho
examining board. but has been advised
by army officers that he will probably
be called later.
Mr.. and Mrs. Long will take posses
sion of Bonfeld about June >.

Grover Cleveland Alexander doubt

the Phillies. The Philles have not
shown as a good club against the
Giants when playing in New York
in the past. Their forte apparently
is to win games i'm the trick park at
Philadelphia. However, a battle may
be looked for because it means a
hard, long struggle to get back if the
Quakers slide even a little while

Three pitchers had no luck at all
for the Yankees, Iris Speakers home
run alone was almost enough to win
for Cleveland.

CONTEST With
AGGIES FIRST
FOR GOPHERS
Minnesota Five Has Never
Let Home Floor For
Lesser College

When the University of Minnesota
basketball Quint plays the North Da-
kota Aggies in the N. ID. A. c. armory
at s o'clock next Saturday evening, 1t
will marx the first time on record
that a Minnesota basketball team has
left its home floor to play college of
lesser athletic standing in a practice
game.
Announcement last week that the
Gopher management had consented
TO 25O-mile trip to play the North
Dakota Aggies, was received with ac-
claim by Fargo and North Dakota
basketball fans, and indications are
for a big crowd when the opening
whistle blows.
on the Gopher quint are three OF
the most prominent OF northwest
athletes. One of the number is Gil
len, who was all-conference forward
last year; another is Hauser, Mime
sofas great gridiron warrior last fall;
elected to the eaptaincy of the Gopher
eleven for 1918.
Another man, who has been promi-
nent in Minnesota basketball, will
also be on the floor, but in an offlctal
capacity. He is Francis Stadsvold, for
three years all-conference forward,
who will referee the game. Pete
Tierney, of Fargo, will umpire.
There was no indication today just
what the AgEies' lineup for the game
will be. Coach Paul J. Davis has two
veterans from his last years team,
Hayes and Heidner, both of whom are
sure to be seen in the contest, but
otherwise the lineup Is problematical.
Coach Davis gave orders before
Christmas vacation that every mem
Der of the basketball squad should
report for practice the day after
Christmas, and practice Is scheduled
for morning. afternoon and evening
Wednesday.
