PAT MOORE BOOKED
TO BOX JOHNNY ERTLE

Baltimore, April 3.-Pal Moore, who
meets Johnny Ertle here in a most
important bantam-weight match a
week from tonight at the Lyric, un-
der the auspices of the Pickwick Ath-
letic Club. will arrive in Baltimore
today. Manager Tommy Walsh will
accompany his prOtege and the proba-
bilities are that Joe BuTman, the sem
sational Chicago bantam-weight, will
also be in the party.
Burman is also udner the manage
ment of Walsh, and it is believed he
will come along to act as Pals chief
sparring partner. Burman met Ertle
in a D-round bout just before Johnny
came here to meet Williams some
few months ago. and naturally he
would be an ideal man to show Pal
just what sort of battle he may ex-
pect from his opponent in the big
fight.
With both of the contestants in
next Wednesdays great go on the
battle-ground. fans can rest assured
there will be no hitch in the pro-

Notes of Game and Camp.

Foxy Grif made the second cut in
his squad this afternoon when he
turned Adrian Lynch, the Central
Association youngster, over to Charlie
Franks Atlanta club. Young Lynch
was uncovered as a promising pitcher
last summer by Trainer Mike Martin.
Mike took up the scouting duties on
an of day in Detroit and brought
back reports of having discovered
another Walter johnson. The Old
Fox has a great deal of confidence in
Martins opinion and Immediately
signed this Iowa Stringbean. The
road was a trifle tough for Adrian
during the closing days of the 1917
season, so the Old Fox has placed him
here with the Crackers for a little
more seasoning. The turning loose
Of Lynch means that Al Waldbauer,
Craft and Engle will be the young
sters that will be tutored from now
on to April Is.
Charlie Frank has his keen base

Cass, the Des Moines Speed Merchant
Frank is willing to take a chance on
Cass not being called into service un-
til late in the summer If the Old Fox
can see his way clear to cut him
loose.
A deal for Cass is now hanging fire
and 1t will not be surprising II the
deal goes through for June to be-
come a Cracker before the Nationals
hike back this route next Monday.
Roy Moran, who is ranked as one
of the best outfielders in the South

An infield punch by Shotton in the

The pitching of Elliott in the game
