ular holdout, either. His case is sim liar to that of Baker. He has private interests that require his attention, and at which he says he can make more money than at baseball
 Earl Smith is the only real Giant holdout. His case is rather amusing, inasmuch as he is holding out before he ever wore a New York uniform Smith evidently reads the papers, and has heard of how McGraw succeed ed in beating Mack to the young catcher, despite the fact that Connie was willing to turn over 5000 in real money and four players. Smith should get along.
 Charley Ebbets submitted his re- turns last Saturday. He has his team lined up better than was gen. erally supposed. Outside of five men still overseas, the only Dodgers un- signed are Pitchers Burleigh Grimes, Larry Cheney and Al Mamaux, and Billy KOpf, the new shortstop, who did not play in 1918, and says he will not play this year.
 That really makes BUrleigh Grimes the only Brooklyn star of any conse- quence who remains out of the fold as Cheney began to slip last year and MamauX has not shown anything since the season of 1916.

FORGOT ALL ABOUT TOURNEY. Miss Bjurstedt Explains Failure to
 Enter National Event.

Palm Beach, Fla, March 10.-Miss Molla Bjurstedt, national Woman's tennis champion, said last night that the reason she did not enter the na- tional indoor championship tennis tourney in New York this week was that she forgot all about it. She also Sai there was no foundation for a published report that she was going to Norway this summer.
 Miss Bjurstedt continued: "I am not reaching New York until Wednes- day night so unless my friends should keep a place open for me in the tournament until then I shall not be in it. But they really could not do this: it would be too late.'

"Y" LOCKER ROOM
 AGAIN RE-OPENED
Extensive Repairs at Local Associa- ton Completed: Basket System
 Is Installed.

The new locker room at the '. NJ C. A. has been opened. The Sys- tenn used is different from the one which was recently discarded and it's many new features make it more practical for use than the one for merly used here. Constant service at the service window will be the order and at any hour of the day articles may be received for the use of baths and gym work.
 Under the new system no man is given a permanent locker and only 200 lockers are in the room. At the entrance to the locker room is a counter, in the back of which is a series of cabinets and wire baskets Every member is entitled to a basket in which his gym suit and towels are to be kept. When he calls for his gym suit he is to give the number of the basket assigned to him and with the basket is given a key to one of the 200 lockers. When he dresses for the gym he locks his cabinet and returns the key to the service counter. Upon his return from the gym he calls for his key, dresses for the street, places his gym suit in the wire baS- ket and returns basket and key to the counter. The locker is now ready for use by someone else, and the gym suit is taken to a drying room and then placed in the cabinet for future use
 The principal features of this new system are it's com pactness. increased locker facilities received thereby, and sanitation

Stay off the damp ground, avoid ex- oosure, keep feet dry, eat less meat drink lots of water and above all take a spoonful of salts occasionally to ,eep down uric acid.
 Rheumatism is caused by poisonous -oxin, called uric acid which is gene rated in the bowels and absorbed into he blood. It is the function of the 1idneys To filter this acid from the blood and ca st it out in the urine The pores of the skin are also d means of freeing the blood of this impurity. Tn damp and chilly, cold weather the skin pores are closed. thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they be- come weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate this uric acid which keeps accommodating and circulating through the system, eventually settling in the Joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism
 At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts; put tablespoon ful in a glass of water and drink be- fore breakfast each morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the blood of these impurities.

EIGHT TANKS STILL
 ON HOLDOUT LIST
Huggins Visits Baker at Trappe,
 Md, But Fails in Mission

New York, March 10.-Two weeks from today the Giants, Yankees and Dodgers will buckle down to real work in their respective Florida training camps-the Giants at Gaines vile and the Yankees and Brooklyns at Jacksonville. Robby's battery men may get into action a few days prior to that, as special dispensation has been granted to the Dodgers and the Braves to start training four days be- fore the other clubs The exception has been made in the case of these clubs because they open the season on April 19, four days before the reg ular opening.
 The winter league season fast drawing to a close finds quite a few local stars still unsigned. The Giants and Dodgers are pretty well lined up, but the Yankee infield and pitching stars continue to hold out.
 Only Bob Shawkey of the regular Yankee pitchers capitulated last week. Shore and Leonard, the two pitchers obtained in the Boston trade, and Mogridse. Russell and Fisher twirers inherited by Huggins remain unsigned. The same may be said of three-fourths of Huggins' regular in field-Baker, third base; Pecl1in- paugh. short stop, and Pratt, second base.
 Huggins returned last Saturday from Bakers home at Trappe, Md, with only the hope that the famous slugger will change his mind before next April 23 and report to the club. Huggins unquestionahly takes the most optimistic view of the Baker case. Having a stick-to-it-ive nature, he refuses to admit that Baker has retired until he is compelled to.
 Huston to Visit Peck.
 Lieut.. Col. Huston made a business trip to Cincinnati during the latter part of last week, and it is under stood he will stop off to see Peck inpaugh on his way back Peckin- paugh received such big money dur ing the federal league days that the club has had difficulty in signing him ever since
 Just how strong the club will go after Derrell Pratt if he remains firm in his declaration to remain in the steel business rem aims to be seen. However, the club is not taking Pratts talk of retirement seriously Pratt has not been able to save the amount of money Baker has been able to put away, and it is said Pratt merely is waiting to be offered more money.
 With FeWster a crack young play CT, handy. Huggins says he could get along without Pratt. though a year ago Pratt was considered the miss ing cog which was to make q pennant machine out of the Yankees. It will be recalled that the little manager gave up Maisel, Nunamaker, Shocker, Gedeon. Cullop and cash for Pratt and Plank. As the latter already has announced his retirement, the entire price was for Pratt alone.
 The unsigned Giants are Pitchers Poll Perritt Fred Toney and Fred Anderson, Catcher Earl Smith and Second Baseman Larry Doyle. Doyle, however, is not a hOldout. He still is working at a shipyard in Kearny. He wrote to MCGraw that when he has an afternoon off he will run over to New York and talk over terms. Anderson has been of little use to the Giants for the last two years and Toney is completing his engagement with the commonwealth of Tenn eSSee. Pcrritt Detained by Business. O 3

THE FORE ST FIRE.

After the adventure with the steel
trap. those animals were very glad
to lie down for a good nap and Ted
dy Possum's tail had a good chance
10 get we'll. They were all sound
asleep. only Jimmy Coon, who began
20 be q little restless, for he thought
he smelled something with his sharp
side, in that hole in the old log
which made a good bed for q tired
traveller and hunter.
He turned and twisted. while that
smell was getting stronger every
minute. and the wind was rising al
most to a gale. scattering twigs and
leaves upon the ground, as the wind
whipped the branches of the trees
back and forth: Goodness me-" said
be a big storm. The wind blows hard
enough. and this would be a good
place to be in-but what a funny
smell! l must get out, and see what
the matter is. I hear Chatterbox
chattering like mad; but that doesn't
mean anything, for he always talks
ali the time, whether any one is there
to hear him or mott"
So out of that hollow log crAwled
Jimmy Coon. He looked al" around.
He we his finger and held 1t up to
see which way the wind was blowing.
He didn't see or hear anything. only
the wind blowing hard in the tree
tops and the leaves scurrying along
on the ground, and that queer smell,
getting stronger and stronger. The
queer thing was, that it smelled like
fire!
But there isn't any fire. so what
can it be ~ said Jimmy to himself. He
shook Teddy Possum to wake him up,
but Teddy was so worn gu with all
he had been through hat he just
wouldn't wake up. Cousin Bruin was
snoring like some old giant and he
couldn't bulge him, 50 he said, Chat
terbox, you run up that pine tree and
look all around and see what there
Is to it,"
