No Gloomy Outlook

The others have not communicated with
the club for some time
with the new men on hand and the vet
erans showing lots OF pep" for 80 early in
the year the outlook is not so gloomy as II
might be.
The infeld virtually is intact. the outfeld
is well taken care OF. the catchers are as
good as any IN the league and you will have
TO 60 some 70 improve on the pitching staff.

1t IS rather early 10 make predictions.
especially when the players have had but
one workout.
For that reason predictions will be over
looked and laid away for future use. Al
the same time. the new material is said TO
be very good and a few OF the rockies are
expected TO stick IN fast company.
Last year the Philles signed a new scout
In the person Of Jim Wolf, and his crop OF
new ones has attracted more than ordinary
attention. He combed the brush in all sec
'ions Of the country in his quest for ivory
and much is expected Of them. He picked
up two outfe,ders. an in1elder and four
pitchers.
Walker on the Job
Ernie Walker who once played with the
st. Louis Browns. Is on the job and prob
ably will take WhItteds place II George de-
cides to remain at home. Walker lasted
but half a season with the Browns In 1915
and was shipped to Rochester. Last year
he went 70 Little Rock. where Scout Wolfe
unearthed him. He batted 35s. which is
going some even for that league, and showed
that he was unusually fast.
Candy a recruit from Portsmouth, Va,
also among those present. He Is twenty
years old six feet three inches tall and was
the leading sugger in his league last year.
He probably will be tried out at first base.
as his speed Is not up TO the standard Of big
league outfielders
McGafingan who was captured out on the
coast when he played with eVrnon last year,
is the smallest man on the squad, and will
be smaller than Maranville IL he makes
good In the league. McGaffigan's speciality
last year was robbing Ping Bode of safe
hits. He is fast. covers all kinds of ground
and was the second shortstop in the league,
He accepted S29 chances for an average of
.927.
Fittery Looks Good
OF the new pitchers Paul Fittery.
Pennsylvania boy, seems to be the star.
Paul played with Salt Lake last year and
earned the title Of Iron Man" He took part
in siXty-fve games and pitched 44S in
nings He won twenty mine and lost nine

the strike-out king OF his league. tanning
203 batters. He also led the league on
bases on balls, issuing 1853 passes and stood
first in the number of hit batsmen with
twenty-three. All OF which shows that
Paul is versatile. Fittery is left handler.

The Heavyweight Lull


TNHE heavyweight situation In the boxing
i corral has come into boding lul again.
There were signs of a brief awakening some
weeks ago. but just at present it is about
as lively as the fettered mummy Of Rameses
H. The great furore attached to the Will
lard-Fulton debate foamed for a day or two
into creamy froth and then died away.
Part of this may have been due to will
lard's demand for s75.0OO-which was
merely matter of $500 n round or $500
minute. The other part may have been
due TO Fultons inability to rouse the popu-
lace into frenzy over his championship
claims. He had done no more than Jack
Dillon weighing seventy pounds less. had
already done before. Whatsoever the rea-
son might be, there is no denying the inn
pressive lull, amounting to chill, which
now prevails. Within another week or two
1t will be exactly year since Willard has
fought anybody anywhere. He has been
heavyweight champion now for two years
and in that time has figured in exactly ten
rounds, an average of fifteen minutes fight
ing to each twelve months. But with no
one TO fight there was very little else for
him to do

Darcy picked a tough time to enter Amer

he might have got by very nicely. But with
America itself on the verge of entering the

duty.
Darcys case happened to be peculiarly
fragrant. And what little chance he had TO
get by he wrecked himself by his first ac-
tvities in this country

PENN STATE LEAGUE CHALLENGES
EASTERN WINNER TO A SERIES

Jasper Would Hardly Meet Carbondale if Jewels

Stage Such Series

DRESlDENT SCHEFFER, Of the Eastern

carbondale champions of the State organiza-

winner in a series at the conclusion of the
season. He gives the Eastern League power
to make arrangements at any time through
Andy Suls.
There is no doubt In the mind Of the fans
In this section that the club which captures
the Eastern League title Can defeat Car
bondale in a series, but will the Eastern
Leaguers meet them?
While in no official position to say So II
looks like a fOregone conclusion that II
Jasper is successful the Jewels will refuse
to play Carbondale, and they have good
reasons.
On the other hand, II Greystock Is again
