spot for this hard-hftting youngster. The retirement of Baker provided the opportunity and Aeusel has been told that he will be the regular third baseman of the Yankees when the season opens.
 The new third baseman is the pos sessor of a. throwing arm, the like Of which has not been seen on a. major league infeId in many a day. Hug gins goes back to the palmy days of the late Harry Steinfeldt in compar- ing MeuseFs throwing with the fast est he has seen on an iRfeld. In his games in the South, Meusel has shown a tendency to be cratic on many of his throws, but Huggins contends that this fault will soon disappear.
 For a man weighing 195 pounds and standing above 6 feet in height Meuse1 carries plenty of speed, as is shown by his record of 31 stolen bases in the Pacific Coast League last season. His batting in recent games has been of the type that gained so much attention for him on the Coast last season. He has been hitting harder than any other member of the Yankees squad in the games played in the South.
 Collins has taken part in a few games and impressed Huggins with the idea that he Is destined to develop into star. A native Texan, Collins does not feel at home unless under a wide -brimmed sombrero and he de- lights to tell his hearers, 'tAh despise civilization. He worked against the Cincinnati Reds in the game at Palm Beach, and the worlds champions, even with the score tied, could not awe him. He held the champs well in hand, and finally the Yankees got him enough runs to win with some thing to spare. In other games Col lins has displayed a confidence in his ability that will go far to win him a place.

Of Penn Crew Broke
 Training

Philadelphia, Pa, April 7.---Three Pennsylvania oarsmen will be demot- ed from the varsity crew and two may be dropped from the rowing squad because of infringement of training rules. There will be a com plete encouragement of the varsity and junior boats. John Arthur Brown, chairman of the Red and Blue Row ing Committee, said yesterday: "~
 We will absolutely enforce dis cipline to the letter. I will not an- nounce who these men are until Joe Wright returns from Canada on Thursday. I have written to Yale rowing officials congratulating them on their victory, which was clean cut
 Those boys who broke, training did their best in the race, but now they know the necessity for perfect condi- tion.''
 It is said that the men who will leave the varsity boat are Arnes, bow: Frank, No. p and possibly Turner, No. 5. Capt Harry Keller will be moved to Ames's place.

WlLLARDWANTS ANOTHER BOUT
 WITH DEMPSEY

Ray Archer, who is Jess willard's secretary and friend, was asked dur ing his recent trip East if the big feI- low intended to fight again. He said that it was decidedly doubtful, be- cause the former heavyweight cham pion is a. very busy man looking after his extensive oil and real estate in tereSts.
 Willard has received many offers of late to meet Fred Fulton. Archer said that the only chance of getting Willard to return to the ring would be the offer of a return match with his eondueror, Jack Dempsey.
 Jess still firmly believes that he can beat Desn psey. He now admits that he undeFsated his opponent and was too careless at the start of the battle. He thinks that if had not de Iiberatefy stuck his chin out Demp- sey never would have landed that first crashing left hook that paved the way for his defeat.
 Willard takes good care of himself Archer said. He never negiectS his deep breathing and light exercise.

YALE NINE IS
 DEFEATED BY NORTH CAROLINA

Raleigh, N. C.. April 7-The Yale University baseball team lost another game here yesterday to the North Carolina State College nine by $ score of 8 to 1. The New Haven col legians were unable to do anything against the excellent pitching of Murray, who was in fine form, strik- ing out g Ellis, and allowing only 2 hits. One of the hits garnered off his delivery was a three bagger by Fla herty in the seventh inning which scored F'redericks, who had worked Murray for a base on balls. Yale played a poor gome in the field. slip ping up on three occasions. each mis- cue counting heavily against them.
 The Tar Heel collegians scored two runs in the first inning on hits and errors, and two in the second off Chfttenden, who had been assigned the pitching burden for the Yale team. Calhoun. who went into the box for the Ellis during the second inning, was touched up for two more counters in that Stanza.

HARTFORD TO GIVE SHERMAN
 TRIAL IN BOX

Hartford, April '. - Joe Sherman who qualified as a real ~fron man. pitcher with Jack Dunn's Baltimore Orioles two years ago, may be a member of the Hartford pitching staff the coming season. Sherman is a free agent and has told Manager HowIey that he would like to catch on with the locals. As the local pilot is familiar with the ability of the ex- Oriole he is willing to take him into the fold and Sherman probably will travelling salesman and his work brings him to Hartford often, and this has given him an opportunity to talk with Manager Howley regarding the possibility of hooking on with the club.
 How1ey is of the opinion that Sher- man is a mighty useful man to have on ball club in that his ability in baseball is not limited solely to the pitching department. He is one of that versatile sort and is capable of holding down an outfield berth in ap- proved fashion in addition to being effective with the stick. With Balti- more Sherman apparently was over worked and this raised havoc with his physical condition For Jack Dunn two years ago he pitched in more than thirty-fve games and his num-
 Der of victories totaled around the twenty-five mark. When he reported to the Orioles last season he was only a shadow of his former self. His attempt to come back proved q failure, and he asked for his re lease. This was granted, and the pitcher rested up practically all oi last season though he tried to regain his effectiveness with Springfield foi a short time last year.
 The long lay-off has evidently worked wonders with the pitcher and the last time he was in town he tole ! Manager Howley that he felt in ex, l cellent condition and had unlimited confidence in his ability to engineer
 a successful comeback if given 2 chance by the local pilot.

New York, April T-Of the big squad of recruits who made their first training trip with the New York Yankees three stand out in bold re- lief and all are certain to survive the cut which Miller Huggins must make shortly after the start of the season. The trio is made up of Bob MeuseI, slated for the regular third base berth on Huggins' club; Frank GIeich, an outfie1der from Saginaw, and Warren Collins, generally called Rip" a pitcher, who was purchased from the Dallas club of the Texas League
 Meusel and Collins have yet to get their first look at New York, but Gleich had his opportunity to look over the big city during the latter part of the 1919 campaign. He joined the New York club in early Septen- Der, and was used occasionally in the late weeks of the season. He failed to do anything unusual, but he has the style. that stamps him as a nat uraf ball player, handles himself well at bat, and has plenty of speed It will not be surprising if G1eich and Wick alternate in right field for the Yankees when the American League pennant race gets under way. In the exhibition games in the South, Man ager Higgins has been using Wick against southpaws and calling upon Gleich, a 1eft-handed hitter, when the right-hand pitchers are operating.
 MeuseI, the taHest member of the squad, stands 6 feet inches in height and looks more like college fulIback than a major league third baseman- His fielding is in need Of polish, but he is learning fast, and Higgins is satisfied that the big fel- low will be able to handle himself capab1y when the race gets under way. Meusel showed fine form as a first baseman in practice games at Jacksonville, but Higgins, being well fixed at first base, had to find another

COACHES LAUD ENDURANCE OF
 YALE OARSMEN

New Haven, April Jim Rice. coach of the Columbia crew; Dr. Duncan Spaeth, instructor of the Princeton crew, and Ellis Ward, one time coach of the Pennsylvania oars men, were among those who witness ed Yale's triumph over Penn in both the varsity and junior races on the Schuy1ki1I on Saturday. All of them expressed their wonder at the form and endurance shown by the Eli oarsmen, who, like all the rest of the college crews, only recently have quit the drilling on the rowing machines for outdoor practice. They were unanimous in the assertion that the Yale men were remarkably we'll ad- vanced for the first week in April and predicted great things for the New Haven colIegians if they contin- ued to improve at the rate they have progressed to date
 While the coaches did not care to comment on the merit of the long, sweeping stroke that Guy NickaIIs ot England has taught the local colie- gians, many other veteran rowing off cia1s who were present pronounced it as effective as any that has been used by an American crew at any time. The fact that Yale, rowing 2 32 stroke all the way, was able tC keep pace with Penn, which wa; straiuing every effort with 3S stroke: a minute. was eloquent evidence o1 the strokes effectiveness. And ir the last drive Yale was fresh anG Penn well spent The Yale meI figured in advance that their endur ance and stroke would overcoms Penn's early lead, and they had i figured out pretty well

GIANTS APPEAR STRONCESTS SINCE
 I9O5 CHAMPIONS

WInston-Salem, N. C., April IT, Manager McGraw is highly pleased with the showing that his 1920 base ball machine has made against the Boston Red Sox. The team is hitting when hits mean runs; the fielding is of the very best and the pitching is of the kind which will prevent the enemy from scoring more than run or two over a stretch of nine in nings.
 Therefore the legion of Giant fol- lowers can begin talking about their pets winning the approaching Ma tiona1 League championship race. The team that McGraw is bringing to the Polo Grounds is about the best that the Little Napoleon has guided into New York from spring training trip since his 1905 aggrega- ton.
 In Jesse Barnes, Fred Toney, Phil Douglas, Arthur Nehf and Rube Ben ton. McGraw has by far the best pitching staff in the National League These five pitchers should win at least hundred games during the season. Last year, with a schedule of 40 games, Barnes alone won twenty five victories. In the ex- hibition affairs against the Red Sox, Jesse has performed with all his skill and cunning, and with a longer schedule there is no reason why he shouldn't win twenty-five games this year.

BUSH REGAlNS
 OLD FORM AND
 DOWNS GIANTS

Winst on-Salern, N. C.. April 7-Joe Bush and Herb Pennock turned the Giants back without a run yesterday and the Red Sox finally managed to win another game, the score being { to O. Bush, who was a hivver last year and who had not pitched an in- ming this spring prior to yesterday was not favored by the weather, which was raw and cold. Despite that. he had a world of speed and a good jump on his fast ball and in only one of the four innings he pitch ed did he have any trouble at all. He allowed only two hits Pennock also was in good form and let the Giants down with a brace of singles.
 Jess Barnes. who started the game in the box for the Giants. did not have his accustomed amount of stuff on the ball and was wild in spots. Bill Ryan pitched the last four innings and did not do as well as he did at Mobile a few days back. He was very wild most of the time. Homt runs by Hooper and Al Walters fig ured in the scoring.
 The Sox made four of their six runs in a bunch in the fifth inning. McInnis opened the frame with a single to centre and moved up on Fosters out. Scott beat out a tap down the third base line and Kerr, batting for Devine. doubled to left scoring McInnis and putting Scott on third Livingston, batting for Bush. hit to Fr1sch who threw Scott out at the plate, but Hooper slugged the ball over the centre field fence, SCOT ing Kerr and Livingston ahead o1 him.
 The two other runs were hung uT by the Sox in the ninth at the ex, | pense of Ryan Hitler, first up, drew 8 base on balls. and Walters hit the
 ball over the left field fence. The Giants got only one man as far as third base. That was in. the third inning when they loaded the
 sacks with two out only to havt | Fletcher fan. Kelly. who was frs
 up. struck out but Gonzales got 1 scratch hit down the third base lint 1 and Barnes singled to left. Burn 1 fouIed to MeInnis, but Young walked l and the sacks were loaded Fletche

MEEHAN'S STYLE PROVED PUZZLE
 ID CARPENTER

New York, April 7-Georges Car pe:nrler got quite an eyefu1 of ArIeri- can heavyweight talent at the Newark Sportsman's Club on Monday night, and the gallant Georges was and wasn't impressed. Naturally the dashing Frenchman was very much interested in Willie Meehan, CaIifor- nia's fighting fat man, and incident ally the portly champ who twice won popular decisions over Jack Dempsey.
 Meehan has stayed the limit with Dempsey on three or four occasions and of course Carpenter came with all eyes to see this fellow who had actually made the hard-hitting Demp- sey fall all over himself. That Car pentier enjoyed Meehan's antics as well as the crowd did, was plain, and when Meehan got going in his tiptop windmill fashion, Carpenter laughed long and heartily.
 And then Georges thought: How ever in all the world did he manage to stay with Dempsey?
 "It puzzles me-" said Carpenter through the medium of Jack Curley's traanslating yesterday. "Mehan is essentially a sw1nger, and how a swinger can get by a straight puncher such as they tell me Dempsey is. can't understand. True, Meehan | has remarkable speed for man of his size and weight, but I feel that l can whip easily any man who swings
 as wide and open as Meehan does. f'But they tell me that Meehan won | and won in the opinion of all who saw | the bout He must have done that 1 else they wouldn't have said so- I did not see Gene THunney box and am
 sorry that I missed the chance to see
 this soldier boy fight. They tell me l he is a good one"
