Tampa Camp Chatter

Tampa. Fla. March 10. - II
President Griffith had not ar
ranged to send Allie Watt to
Portsmouth for the coming sea-
son. il is foregone conclusion
that he would have been placed
with Tommy Leach in this city.
Leach was very much impressed
with the Washington sandlotter's
action and attempted to induce
Griff to leave him in Tampa
When Leach asked Griff for the
player, the reply was "1 certainly
would have been mighty pleased to
have an experienced man like you
take charge of him, for look for
Watt with a years experience to
become a great ball player. He
has every qualification, but he
needs some polishing. Had I known
you were going to manage the
Tampa club you certainly would
have had him."
Another Washington player who
some day is going to make good.
is Brooke Grubb. This kid is one
sweet hitter. The way he has wal
Ioped that horsehide mas opened the
ewes of more than one of the vet
eran players. He will be placed
with some experienced manager
who can take the rough edges of
him. Griff Is much pleased with the
silver Springs youth and says he Is
not going to let him get away.
1t is funny to see the youngsters
when johnson Is warming Up.
Every one of them watches every
move of the'king. One was called
the other day by Nick for not
working. The youngster shot back
this remark: My arm is all right
and am feeling great. I can
learn more in few minutes
watching the big fellow than 1
can by warming up all day"
II Washington does not have a
cracking set of twirlers then
everything in the world is wrong.
With a trio OF pitchers like John
son. Shaw and Erickson for right
handlers and Courtney and Zachary
as left-handers. Griff has FIVE men
that can be counted on in the 1920
campaign. Then with the young
sters to fall back on, IL will be a
caution II Griff does not turn out
winning set of men for slab
duty

'DAMASK PICKED

They're talking about Damask as
"a favorite in the Kentucky Derby
in May.
Damask Is the 3-year-oId Harry
Payne Whitney refused $4,000 for
a short time ago.
Since then Damask has performed
in such fashion that the owner, and
his trainer, James Rowe, are glad
they didn't listen to any such offer
Damask is picked to win the
Louisiana Derby, March II.
Performing Wen.
Damask has been performing
nicely all winter, but by scamper-
ing home far ahead of the field in
the George Washington handicap
the race track men are all the
stronger for him.
II the day Is clear and the track
dry and fast Damask is likely to
be very much in the running at
Churchill Downs on the afternoon
next May when the great Kentucky
Derby Is staged the classic of
all running race events OF North
America.
Ambrose Rides Mount.
Damask didn't show wen here on
the heavy tracks at the Fair Grounds,
but after moving over to Jefferson
Park for the later meeting where
the track was dry and fast the
Whitney entry has been going great
In the George Washington handicap,
Damask carried 126 pounds in Ed
die Ambrose.
Rowe, who is one of the most
prominent thoroughbred trainers in
the game today, will have other
t3-year-olds in the field in John P.
Grier and Upset.
The whitney entries are eligible
for the Kentucky events. Damask
is the son of All Gold -Crinoline II.

which would make it appear as il
the foXey president of the Washing

nifty leader to supplant him in the
managerial role. Because Manager
Leach has no player on his roster
to fill the first sack job. President
Griffith last night loaned him wash

The Old Fox is anxious to give
Washburne thorough once-over
and was more than pleased at the
opportunity of having the ycungster
work out with the opposition.
1 Although the Foxy Leader to-
night denied that he may turn
WashburHe over to the Tampa Club.
IL is known that Leach is pretty
sweet on the Wichita player and
has already bid for his services il
the Old Fox intends cutting him
loose.
II the weather continues as it was
this afternoon there is sure to be
a great crowd of Tampa fans and
Northern visitors on hand, as the
folks here are craving to see the
national pastime once again. The
three pitchers who will face the
Tampa Club in this inaugural will
be Lefty Courtney, Schacht and
Carlson. while three other young
sters will be given a chance in the
game on Friday.

II is hardly likely that johnson,

as the Big Three" will be asked
to work in any of the games again st
the Tampa Club, but Griffith made
IL understood tonight that the vet

tion against the Cuban Stars next
week. Griffith Is not only anxious
to give his young twirlers plenty

so he can get line on how smart
they are in baseball vocabulary.

The Record says:
Frank Newman arrived Monday ev-
ening from Brownsville Texas, after
passing the winter in that city. He is
just recuperating from an attack of
flu a few weeks ago. Mr.. Newman
says that the weather has been OPP
presively hot down there, also that the
Mexican situation is tranquil as could
he. In fact he says the farther away
from the border you get the more sem
Sational the stories Of trouble in Mex
leo become. He says the desire of all
leading MeXicans is to remain on
friendly terms with the United States,
and has no patience with the propa-
ganda that has for it's object the con-
quest of Mexico. And Mr. Newman
has spent enough time in that coun-
try in the past fifteen years to be
much more of an authority on the
subject than many advocates Of in
tervention.
Vern Brookens has bought the ho-
tel of this village of Mr. Chisman of
Lisbon, n. D., who recently acquired
the property in a trade. Vern will OPP

He is one of our most enterprising
young men, and as Mrs Brookens is
