PROSPECTS FOR THE
 RANGE LOOK BETTER

The first of this week the cattlemen of Mohave county were feeling no lit tie concern on account of the long dry spell which has not only been making the feed bad, but making a serious condition regarding the water supply as well.
 About 4000 head of cattle had gath cred at the Red Lake tank and steps were taken to move some of these ge- fore the water gave out, as it would were taken to move some of these be- them 30 or 40 miles to other water after the thank had gone dry.
 The rainfall the latter part of the last week with prospects of more in the near future has relieved the situa- tion considerably.-Kingman Miner.

PLAN SUMMER RESORT
 AT MORMON DIARY SPRINGS

w. H. Gill, landscape engineer for the forest service, arrived yesterday with Mrs. Gill from Albuquerque.
 There have been several applications for rights to establish a modern sum- mer resort at Mormon Dairy Springs, Mormon Lake, and MT. Gill is going down there to make survey and map out grounds for big summer hotel, public camping ground and summer cottages.
 The forest service has not as yet acted favorably on any of the applica- tions, but will get the plans ready and later will probably give the concession to some person or concern that in their estimation will do justice to the project.

LIVESTOCK AND RANGES
 IN ARIZONA

One-half inch rain at Pinedale, southern Navajo county, was the larg- est amount reported to the weather bureau by any of it's telegraphic sta- tions for the past week. The general complaint is that ranges are drying badly from lack of rain and that the water supply is diminishing. The water supply at Pinedale needs furth- CT replenishing as it does at Pinto, Apache county, where pumping is be- ing resorted to-; stock and ranges are reported as good in both counties. No rain has fallen in the vicinity of Grand Canyon where the range is showing the effect of dry weather. Cattle con- tinue in good condition in the Grand Canyon section and show little change about Prescott and Williams. Show CTS in the extreme south have been too light to be of any appreciable ben eft and conditions in the Nogales sec tion are reported as being most unfa- vorable while at Douglas the July rain fall thus far has been the smallest in years, and the range is reported dry.

Crop Progress in Arizona.

While the absence of rain may be temporarily damaging to stock inter ests it may be regarded as helpful to the cotton planter whose program of irrigation is not ipterfered with by un- timely showers. Cotton plants are looking strong and of a good color and good progress has been made except where the combination of hot wealth CT, high humidity and too much water has caused some shedding. Absence of rain has not been altogether favor able for the cantaloupe crop as vines are wilting and the fullest develop ment has been checked. Dryland crops without exception are needing rain badly.

latham Hurts
Ankle ON Ship;
May Not Race
Two Oxford Athletes Are
Sent For by Wireless to
FIJI the Possible Vacancy
By A. c. Cavagnaro

England's first athletic invasion of
this country since 1914 occurred yes
terday, with the arrival of the Oxford
Cambridge relay team on the steam
ship Adriatic of the White Star Line.
Five athletes comprised the party,
which was in charge of Lieutenant Col
onel A. N. Strade Jackson, as director,
and Alfred Shrubb, the professional dis
lance runner, who is acting as trainer.
The runners were Beril G. d. Rudd, Z.
A. Montague, H. NJ. Stallard, w. K. Mil
ligan and w. S. latham
The first appearance of the Britons
will be in the two-mile relay race at
the annual carnival of the University
of Pennsylvania at Franklin Field,
Philadelphia, on April 80 and May l.
when only two days out of Southamp
ton. latham, who was expected to
prove one of the sensations of the
teams. fell down companionway Sc
verely' njuring his left ankle, and it is
feared that he will not be able to
compete.
AS soon as the seriousness of Tat
ham S condition was ascertalned wire
less was dispatched to England re-
qUcStiuS tHdt SeuSlo'c anu oCPPc, wv
oti East Oxford runners, be immedi-
ately sent on to this country on an
other steam ship.
Shrub declared he expected his
charges to furnish strong opposition to
the American athletes that will on
pose mis- Oxford Cambridge team in the
Penn event. He appeared to have fair
knowledge - the capabilities Of the
rivals to be met, and was anxious to
t,,-
sible. The English collegians left for
Philadelphia last night, and will do
all their training on Franklin Field.
The University Of Pennsylvania team
is looked upon as the strongest Of the
United States teams. Shrubb was GER
tain that his athletes would encounter
little trouble in acclimating them
selves. and he believed they would dis
play faster times than in the Oxford
Cambridge dual meet.
Athletics in England are just recov-
ering from the war, said Shrubb, and
therefore he did not expect his coun-
try would be strong contender for
the honors in the Olympic games.
The trainer said the sentiment among
the European countries was that Amor
lea would capture the team champion
ships at Antwerp. Sweden and Finland
are regarded as the strongest oppo-
nents of the United States for the
international honors
1t is unlikely that the Oxford Cam
bridge athletes will perform o. NV
track other than that of Franklin Field,
as they are planning 10 san tor home
as soon as possible in order to prepare
for the Belgium events.

Giants TO Dra1U Rudolph
In Final Clash of Series
Old Rival to Appear in
Box Again; Wick to Re-
place Outfelder Cleich
By w. ]. Macbeth

Rain yesterday afternoon wiped local
baseball right OFF the slate. The Giants
had to forego all thought of revenge
against the Braves and the Dodgers
were denied the supposedly easy prey
Of Gavvy Cravath's Phillies. The Yam
KEGS, in far off Philadelphia, had moth
ing better to do than admire Babe
Ruths new brown derby.
There will be different story this
afternoon If the weather is fine.
:, Boston has played two games with
opening series, and New York has yet
to win. 1t can be imagined, then, with
what determination the teams will
grapple this afternoon. George Stall
lngs has already won the opening Sc
ries. But he is anxious to make a clean
sweep of three games, if possible, for
the moral effect upon his young play
ers.
1t was Stallings's intention to pitch
Dick Rudolph had game been played
yesterday. No doubt this formidable
native of the Bronx will oppose the
Giants this afternoon, weather per-
hitting. Rudolph was somewhat slow
IN coming to form this spring, but now
reports himself fit. Dick has always
been tough problem for the Giants.
Southpaw Due To-day
McGraw has tossed in two of his
right-handed aces-Jess Barnes and md
Fred Ioney-to no avail. 1t is more
than likely he will try southpaw this
afternoon. Artie Nehf and RUDE Ben
ton are both on edge. A battle roval
for the holiday crowd can pretty nearly
be guaranteed if Dick is the Rudolph
of old
In Brooklyn the Dodgers and Phillies
nave each won a game. This after
moons attraction will, therefore, decide
the series. Philadelphia is team that
runs very strong to right-handed hit
tiers. Robinson tried the experiment
of sending RUDE Marquard, a south
paw. against Cravath's men in the
second engagement. The Rube was
soundly. drubbed. 1t is a good guess
that Robbie will keep his portsiders on
the bench to-day. Big jeff Pfeffer is
simply spelling for work. He should
win IT his teammates are able to get
him couple of runs.
Word comes from Philadelphia that
Miller Higgins is attempting to buy
George Burns from the Athletics. The
midget manager would use Burns in
right field, where he played for Connie
Mack considerably last season. Burns
is 300 hitter who started as a first
baseman with the Detroit Tigers.
1t is an excellent idea for one so
situated as Higgins to buy material
ready made. And still there seems a
limit to sensible spending. The club
has paid out couple of fortunes the
last few years for tried material. Has
the material been properly utilized?
Because New York is fertile field
where it is folly to squander precious
time in developing green material is
no reason why experimenting cannot
be done at the proper time. Higgins
has had with him all spring in the

Stevens and Rutgers
To Play Despite Strike

The baseball game between Stevens
Tech and Rutgers will be played to-
day as scheduled in spite of the strike
and the fact that most of the students
are being employed by The railroads
The teams will meet on the Castle
Point diamond with their regular line
ups. Fortunately the Stevens team was
at West Point last Wednesday when
the students were seeking positions
otherwise there might be a different
story to tell. Eggers and Higley man,
aged to get jobs on Thursday, but they
will "strike" long enough to play this
afternoon.
The lacrosse match, which was sched-
uled with the University Of Pennsyl-
vania, had to be cancelled because Of
the transportation conditions.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1920-04-17

South 9. young man who might easily
solve his outfeld problem. This is
Frank O'Doul, who came from the
Coast southpaw pitcher.
NO less judge than Bobbie Lowe.
the scout of the Tigers. believes
O'Doul a combination between Iris
Speaker and Ty Cobb and says that be-
fore the end of the season this fleet
youngster would develop into one of
the greatest outfielders of all time In
Loves opinion, O'Doul to-day is faster
than Ty Cobb was when he broke in
with Detroit. He has lot to learn
about base running, but there is only
one way for him to learn. No player
with the Yankees hit better than
O'Doul did in the South this spring.
Yankees to Drop Gleich
Higgins has just decided to discard
Frank Gleich and to restore Sammy
Wick to regular duty in right field.
Gleich will be placed with some fast
minor league club. He may develop
into a star, but he is at least two years
away from fast company. Higgins had
intended to use Gleich against right
handed pitchers (the rookie bats left
handed) and Wick against southpaws.
Higgins may be figuring on O'Doul
Tor pitching. rms young man gained
quite reputation as a portsider in
California. He has plenty of speed and
fine curve ball, and also has sense
and nerve. Herb Thormahlen has no.
been right all spring, though he re-
ports his arm fast coming around.
Mogrjdge at the moment of writing is
the only tried southpaw fiji for duty. if
O'Doul is excepted. So soon as Thor
mahlen is ready O'Doul certainly
should be tried in the outfield. The
latter will never last long as a pitcher
in fast company until he improves his
motion. He puts too great strain on
the forearm and wrist.
Wick, ty the way, may fill every re-
quiremenr once he is sure Of his job
His chief weakness is on ground balls.
and against this weakness he is trying
to protect himself through infield
practice. He has worked hard this
spring. He is 100 per cent better field
er than he was year ago He is
young, apt and ambitious.

Last Hole Victory
For Mendes; Plays
Final With Weber
From a Special Correspondent

PINEHURsT, N. c.. April 16.-A. J.
Mendes, Siwanoy, will meet Harold
Weber, Inverness, in the eighteen
hole final Of the annual mid-April golf
tournament tomorrow. The former
eliminated J. d. Chapman, Greenwich,
in the semi-final to-day, in a match
that went to the last green for de-
cision.
Mendes played the first six holes one
under par and was up, aided by a
stymie, on the sixth. He lost the
seventh and ninth and turned up. He
lost two and won one of the next five
holes, which made him one up going
to the fifteenth. Mendes holed a putt
half in, par 3, and holed 35-yard
approach for half in q on the six
teenth. His tee shot just escaped two
bunkers on the next, which gave him a
half in 8. A half on the eighteenth in
8 gave the Siwanoy player the match.
In the other semi-fnal Weber was
going altogether too fast for E. L.
scofeld, being out in 33 and up.
He had an eagle on the fifth by hol-
ing an approach of 100 yards, and a
birdie on the long seventh. The
other holes were all made in par. He
ended the match on the thirteenth, 6
and s. The summary:

Stallinggs Expects
To Finish Season
Ina First Division

George Stallings, manager of the
Boston Braves, who announced recently
that he would retire at the end of the
present season TO devote his entire at
tention to the development of his stock
plantation, near Haddock, Ga, believes
that his farewell year will mark the
high tide in the popularity of the game
to- date.
Stallings declares that the two major
leagues are better balanced than at any
time since the American League first
claimed major recognition, and that the
ensuing fervor created by close COM
petition, together with the public's wild
desire for entertainment, will do the
rest.
ut should be the greatest year ever"
said Stallings, without reservation, last
! night. ut carries me back to the good
old days of ten years ago, which saw
the finest balance of major league his
tory. Any one of four or five clubs
may win in either league.
an cGraw has a good club in the Ma
tional League, and SO has Wilbert Rob-
inson. There are spots in both that
have to be improved But both are
very strong in pitchers, which is more
than half the battle. A champion ship
club must always be respected Where
fore l am not one to count out the
Reds. Fred Mitchell is smart man
ager. He has fair team, and if
George Tyler comes back, as certain
Chicago scribcs say he will. the Cubs
will have the three most effective pitch
ers in baseball. These - Alexander
Vaughn and Tyler, not to mention
Herdrx-should come pretty close to
winning the pennant.
"The American League race is usu-
ally an open one" continued Stallngs
"and this year should be no exception
Cleveland, New York, Detroit, Chicago
and St. Louis dope on paper about as
evenly as anything you can imagine
If Frank Baker returns to New York
the Yankees prospects should be en-
HANGED enough to make them the favor
ties. In any event, n race should de-
vclop comparable to the most thrilling
American League drives of the past.
~ am not claiming any pennant for
my Braves" Stallngs concluded "But
have far better club than most peo-
| pie are willing to concede. 1t is a
( young club, and as such will have its
bad days. But let my pitchers live up
to expectations and I'li come mighty
close to landing in the first division
That should be some accomplishment
especially this year. A first division
berth will come close to a Champion
ship if am not mistaken"

Yale Fencer Is Unbeaten
In Eight Preliminaries

John Leicester, Of Yale, won eight
straight victories in the preliminaries
Of the intercollegiate championship
fencing tournament held at the Hotel
Astor last night: J. c. Van Cleve, A.
L. Becker and u. F. Smellie, of the
Navy, and Herbert L. Foster, of CO.
lumbia, were tied for second place with
seven wins and one defeat each.
One Of the best matches of the eve
ming was that between Leicester and
Van Cleys. Each had previously won
leading during the first two minutes,
but the Yale man came back strong
and triumphed, 8 to 7. Becker suf-
fered his one setback at the hands of
D. Vencoe, Of Columbia. The two con-
testants were tied at the end of the
regulation period, but the latter finally
won out at the end of the second extra
period, II to Is.
Five more of the preliminaries will
be held this afternoon, and the semi
final and final matches will be con-
tested tonight. The Navy is now
leading, 81 to 8, and Harvard is sec
ond, IA to 10.
