EGYPTIANS WANT
HEARING il J A IN SENA TE'

Washington, Aug. o. Decision Of
the senate foreign relations commit
tee to lengthen the hearing Of treaty
still further by granting a hearing to
the Irish, Egyptian and mid Europ-
can representatives here today to re-
new against efforts to take the treaty
out Of the committees hands. a ma
jority of the committee took the stand
that the subject peoples who did not
get satisfaction at the peace confer
ence should be allowed to- air their
grievances. Democratic members OBJ
jected on the grounds that additional
hearing would needlessly delay re-
porting Of the treaty; that all those
asking for a hearing jim the peace con-
ference and they have all, without ex-
ception, made clear to the senate the
nature of their grievances to the sem
ate and congress through advertising
and other forms of publicity.
The. Egyptians it, was conceded got
practically no hearing at the peace
conference. They are to be repre-
scented before congress by former gov
ernor Folk of Missouri. VI

Many Veterans Among Those
 Who Reported for Practice

Syracuse, N, Y, Feb. I9.-varsity baseball practice started at Syracuse university on Monday. Seventy-fve ball tossers are reporting regularly tev coach Lew Carr in the cage and new " faces are appearing on the squad each day. Prospects for a winning com hlnaton this spring appear particU- iafly bright, with nine former varsity men pack and as many more from % last years freshman nine. The return to college of Eddie Brown, Jack Ma lone, Bill Finsterwald. Harold Lowe and Ted Huntley. all players on for mer varsity combinations, who hava~ been in the service, boosted the orange baseball stock.
 The scarcity of experienced pitch CTS is worrying Coach Carr. Gerald Zaccardo, the mainstay of last years pitching staff, is still in the service, and the chance of his getting in the game this spring is not very promis- ing. Eddie Brown pitched some good ball last year before he entered the service, and can probably be counted on. together with Huntley, the secY ondstrng pitcher last year, to help do the hurlng. Leube and Dixon are the best bets from last years yearling crop.
 The backstop position will be we'll taken care of with Barsha, Schwarzcr and Herman fighting for the job Com- petition for lnfield positions will bs keen. Finsterwald at third, HarriA at short and Malone at second, are old hands at their respective stands but Ram. Savidge.

CHASE TO GIANTS
Manager Moran i'm New York To Complete Deal-SicEinG May Wear Reds Uniform.

New York, Feb. 19.--Hal Chase in all probability will be a full f1edged Giant by nightfalI. Pat Moran, the new Cincinnati manager, is here to- day for the purpose of completing q. deal by which Chase will be trans ferred to the Giants. It is unlikely that Moran will ask much for Chase, inasmuch as McGraw made it possi- ble for Moran to go to Cincinnati sI manager.
 Chase still is quite an asset and tho Cincinnati club feels it should get some return. Moran is weak on pitch CTS, as the two reliables of the Gin cinnati staff-Toney and Schneider will be wearing Giant and Yankee uniforms respectively next season. Moran also is without a. shortstop, gs Kopf, who was at short in 1917. has been traded to Brooklyn, and Black hurne, who played short last season, has been traded to the Braves.
 It is said that Moran will try to se- cure Eddie Sticking and one of New Tork's second string pitchers-per- haps Tesreau or Smith-for Chase. McCiraw thinks very well of Sickirfg, but early in the winter offered Holka and Siclling to Brooklyn for Daubert. As result of his talks with McGraw and Moran Chase will settle out of court his demand for back salary.
