BIC LEAGUERS
BUSY IN SOUTH
Games Have Been Played Al
ready by Some Ball Teams

The National and American League
baseball teams have left for their re-
specttve training camps, and a num-
Der Of the teams have quite a band
of players already in camp. Several
OF the teams have encountered bad
weather IN the camps, but for the
most part the early squads have
started practice and several teams
have participated in games.
Connie Mack's Philadelphia Amer
leans, IL Of the earliest teams to
leave the north, participated in a
number of games already. Wibert
RobinSon's Brooklyn team has been
divided UP into two equal teams and
each day play d game. These two
teams are starting early and should
make q big impression during the
season.
The roster Of the American League
teams Is changed more than the Ma
tional. This Is due to the fact that
there have been more deals in the
younger circuit. There is considera-
BILE talk about several deals being
made in the National League, but
none Of importance have been Off
cially closed as yet.
1t is believed that the Yankees and
Chicago White Sox should have q
hard run for the championship of the
Johnson circuit. The Chicago team
IS much the same as last year when
they won the pennant, while the adj
dition of Babe Ruth to the Yankees
should bring them up high In their
fight for the honors. Cleveland and
possibly Detroit should be in the
running for the major port of the
season.
In the National league New York
and Cincinnati, with Chicago a strong
possibility, arc the teams hat de-
mand considerable attention for the
coming championship. The talk OF
a deal between Cincinnati and New
York should have a great deal to do
with strengthening or weakening
either team, while Chicago has the
same team as last year. only their
pitchers show greater promise. this
season.

MATAWAN, March 4-The Mata-
wan Big Five basketball team de-
feated Keyport last night at Matawan
by a score Of A to SO, thus capturing
the third straight game n the Sc
ries. The game was a hard struggle
from beginning to end.
Burns and Tassini were the scoring
aces for Matawan, the former cagtng
seven, while Tassini hoped the ball
six times. Vincent was right behind
the leaders, coming through on five
occasions. The excellent work OF the
Big Five guards had much to do with
the winning of the game.
Chief" Tassini starts the scoring
with a basket from the center. The
combination of Burns, Tassint m
Vincent then proceeded TO net the
ball with machine-like regularity, run
ming up fourteen points while the BY
ers annexed two.
In the closing minutes of the first
half Keyport staged a desperate squirt,
three successive field goals by Drake
helping considerably. Vincent then
Gagged two shots for Matawan and hair
time found the Big Five leading by
a score of &c to Is.
Z The Aero Flyers played a fast
game in the final period. Captain
Manuel of the Flyers made several
pretty shots and his foorwork was
splendid. Tassini and Burns came
through in the pinch and brought Ma
tawan out on top. The feature OF
the game was the playing Of Tassin1,
he scored six f1elders and shot SIX
out of even fouls. Manuel. Drake
and Kinhafer were the men who kept
Keyport In the gnme.
This game marked the twenty
ninth victory for Matawan out of

State Leaders in Shooting Averages

While we are waiting for the Of
1clal trapshooting averages to be
be turned loose it Is worth while Civ
ing a glance at the various state lead
ers and see how they shape up. The
shooters who top the averages in their
states usually are the best shooters,
especially when the averages are tot
aled on 1000 targets, as those ap-
pended are.
Voolfolk Henderson, of Lexington,
KY, and Mark Arie, of Thomasboro,
ILL.,. are tie away for the leadership
according to the usual way of figuring
Out when you get right down to brass
tacks and shuttle the figures a little
bit you find that Henderson has the
slightest fraction on Arie just
enough to win the high average hon
ors unless Arie can find a couple of
places to shoot where he can blaze
thru without a miss. 1t is too late in
the season for miracles like this to
happen.
Frank Troeh shot himself to the
front last year and managed to keep
right in the front this season until a
month ago when Henderson and Arie
swept by him in a rush, but all you
have to do to learn that Troeh has
been doing some shooting, too, is to
look at his average. He has shot sew
eral thousand more targets than either
of the shooters above him.
In the list of state average leaders
we find Is state champions, which we
insist is a mighty large percentage.
1t brings in mind that oft repeated
statement that "class will tell" Fiji
teen of the leaders average better than
90 per cent.
Here are the high average trap
shooters in the various states right up
