Braves Will Finish High Up If Pitchers
 Deliver Says Pilot

Greensboro, N. C., April 3-tIf my pitchers hold up I believe we will show the Boston fans ball team worth while at Braves Field this year. declared Manager George Sta1lings yesterday in reviewing the work of his men on this exa cting trip through Southland. My men are facing a test against those DeC. oit hit ters that is perhaps as tough as any pitching staff in the country has call ed upon to face" continued the Tri- bal leader. ''I am satisfied with Ru- dolph, Fil1ingim, Oeschger and Mo QuiHen, and I look for some of the other men to come t-.rough.
 ''If it is only for his hitting alone I will hold on to Eddie Eayrs., The chunky little southpaw has shown me that he can pitch, but whether he can stand the going of a champion ship season remains to be determin- ed. But Eayrs is a, brainy boy at the bat and is 9 valuable man for my outfield.
 tfWe haven't any great new stars. We have had men shifted from other teams to our regular lineup, not ne cessari1y cast-offs, but players who have been suppIanted on their for mer teams by perhaps stronger men. In young Ford I think we have pick ed up 8 nugget. The way this kid has jumped in at short right off the reel and played the Rabbits posi- tfcn is little short of remarkabIe''

Harvard Signs Bob Fisher
 As Coach

Cambridge, Mass, April 3-F. ". Moore, graduate manager of the liar yard Athletic association. announced last night that Robert T. Fisher had renewed his contract as head football coach. Fisher himself declared that he had not arranged for his assist ants, but hoped to have his associates of last season with him.
 While little is being said officially about revising the Haugnton system, it is known that, while the basic fun damentafs of Harvard's game will be the same as for so many years, the charge of the backs will be quickened and a more compact interference of fered them in close formation Con siderable direct passing will be used in addition.
 Coaches Fisher and Jimmie Knox are now working out a dependable defence to stop an attack similar to that used by the Oregon offence against Harvard tackles last January

Cutler Makes Rum of IF But Loses Match
 to Old Rival Sutton

New York, April 3-George Sutton again defeated Albert Cutler in the second of their series of exhibition 1S.2 baIkIine billiard matches at Canffe1d's Academy last night. The score was 800 to 2SS- It was one of the closest calls that the Chicago veteran has had in his recent games With a little break in the luck, Cut Ter might have succeeded in winning with the score just reversed.
 When Cutler stepped to the table for his fourteenth inning, he needed 129 points to win. At that time, the score stood .288 to 159 in favor of Sutton, and there did not appear to be even a remote chance of the form CT Bostonian pulling the game out ot the fire. He gathered the balls quickly, however, and before he fin ally missed he had made a total of IF points, his high run of the game anj l came within twelve markers of win ming.

Giants lnfield Not
 Very Reliable Yet
Fans Afraid Larry Doyle Won't Be Able to Stand Pace
 and First Baseman Kelly Is Also Uncertain

New York, April 3.---The chances of the Giants in the 1920 pennant race will depend almost entirely on how Manager McGraw's infield experiment turns out. With pitching staff, catching department and outheId which ranks with the best in the league, it is the inf1eId which must bear the brunt of the blame if the Giants fail to come through during the coming season.
 Upon George Kelly's ability to play first base in big league style and on Larry Doyle's physical condition the success of the Giants season largely depends. Kelly has been up in the major leagues more than once before,
 but each time he was not used regu-
 larly, and his work as a pinch hitter
 was not of marked success. However,
 he had thorough seasoning last year
 in the International League, where
 he attained high ranking as a bats
 man. He joined the Giants late last season, and for time he was unable to hit, Toward the end of the season, however, he hit his stride, and when the season ended he was batting at 8 300 clip.
 Kelly is big, strong and fast. and has much natural ability as a bal player. Arthur Irwin, the veteran who has had Kelly under his wing al | Rochester, predicts a great season fol l Kelly. He says that what he need is to be in the game every day. tha- | it VIII take a lot of work to bring ou his talents. Manager McGraw is go | ing to use him at first from the start
 and is confident that the big Cali fornian is ripe for a great year in the ] majors.
 l Larry Doyle is still a, valuable bal | player, but he has been in the gam I for a number of seasons now and l. cannot stand the physical strain o | the game as he could in the old days
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1920-04-03

He has been through the stress of dozen pennant fights and he hasn't the stamina of the former days. Last season Doyle was injured at critical times in the pennant race, and the club suffered. Just now he appears to be in pretty fair shape, but he has not dared to cut loose as the young sters do at the training camp. Doyle is still a great man with the stick, and even if he is unable to cover sec ond throughout the season, he will be of great value to the club as a pinch , hitter
 McGraw is pretty well decided to start the season with Frisch at third base in Heine Zimmerm a1's place. At San Antonio, where FTisch played third, he was a sensation. and he promises to be one of the outstanding i figures of the game, during the coming season. Frisch is lightning fast, and | knows just how to play the ball. He ] covers a lot of ground. and for this reason alone he would be of greater value perhaps at second base. But 1 unless McGraw is able to get a sea- 1 soned third baseman in trade before 1 the season is over, he will be forced to use Frich at third If the rumor- ed trade for Stock goes thro4lgh Frisch will go back to second. Fletcher 1 is still a fast, capable ball player, and
 he has more than one good season left. With this combination of new
 and old talent, Manager McGraw hopes to improve the infleld situation
 which was such last season that it
 cost the Giants a good many ball
 games.
 It is certain that Fletcher and
 F'riseh will carry out their parts in
 the infeId but whether Kelly will fill
 the bill at first or Doyle will be able
 to last out the season at second are
 problems which are giving Manager
 McGraw much food for thought down South.

MCCORRY HOPES
 ID HAVE FAST
 CLUB IN ALBANY

Hartford, April 3-Bin McCory, last year center fielder of the Pittsffeld Eastern League champions, who will make his debut as a minor league manager the coming season, having been named pilot of the Albany club, is taking a. trip around the circuit with hopes of lining up some players for his outfit Thursday he stopped off here and engaged in a lengthy talk with Manager Dan Hov1ey of the Senators Whether there is trade in the works between the two clubs could not be learned but it is known that McCorry has quite a. bit of sur plus material that he could use in trade and there is a possibility that some kind of a deal may develop McCorry is in quest of pitchers and said he is well supplied in other de partments. He has a few extra in fieIders with whom he would be will ing to part if he could land any pitchers.
 McCorry hopes to sign up Brick McInnis, brother of the famous Stuff fly McInnis, the Red Sox first sacker. Brick is an infielder and last sea- son played for a, while with the Tor onto Internationals- He is at home at any of the infiehd positions. Mo Cory also hopes to sign up Bill Tamn, former Portland third sack CT, who laid off the pastine last sea son According to McCorry a good pitching staff will make the club one that will be in the race next season

Huggins Picks Out
 Infield For YankS
Decides Play Ward at Second and Meuse at Third and
 Believes This Change Will Add Speed to Club

ton of his infeid, and it looks as though Meuse1 at third and Aaron Ward at second will be the way the reorganized inner defense will start
 The only thing that will change this is the sudden closing of a big dea. now under discussion but which probably will hang fire until after the opening Of the regular league race.
 As to a. ''kid" making good at third base, Huggins points out that it has been done in the past. Frank Baker made good in his first year with the Athletics in 1909 and his team won pennants and worlds cham. pionships in 1910 and 1911.
 Arthur Devlin jumped right into the Giants lineup, a college boy with no minor league experience and his team, that of 1903, finished second and won pennants in 1904 and lS05 The Yankee board of strategy believes that all Meuse1 needs is con stant drilling around balls and the finer points of the game when men are on the bases. He is naturally equipped for the place with a pair of sure hands and with one of the greatest throwing arms that ever shot a ball across the diamond. For q man of his height and weight he is remarkably active.

MCKENTY, OLD
 LOCAL PITCHER,
 WI1HNEWnAvEN

New Haven, April 3-FNor the last
 few weeks Manager Bender of the
 New Haven club, has been at his home
 in Philadelphia. The Chief has signed
 up two pitchers. One of them, Thomp-
 son by name, was the leading twirler in the Delaware County League last
 year. This is the league Frank Baker
 plans to play in this season with the Upland club and in the ranks of that organization are some mighty hefty clouters. Thom pson faced them all last season ard came out at the top of the heap of twirlers.
 Another of Bender's acquisitions is a hurler by the name of Elton. who l halls from Chicago. Elton twir1ed for the Logan Squares. one of the strong est semi professional teams in the Middle West, last season, and comes exceptionally well recommended by , Kid Gleason, manager of The White Sox.
 1 McKenty, a southpaw. who was ' with Bridgeport during the latter part l of last year. will also be seen on the
 roster of the local club. He halls
 from Philadelphia, and Manager Ed | Wash of the Bridgeport club, was | after him to rejoin the team this year. However, as he was a free agent,
 Weiss out-bid the Park City team for 1 his services, and he will be on hand
 to show his wares to Bender when l activities start locally.
