Johnny Heisman, Pcnn's new foot
boil coach is not at all satisfied with
the attitude taken by the football can
didates during the spring practice that
started its third week on Monday and
will end next week. Over a hundred
candidates signed up when the managers
made their first canvass. OF this mum
ber fully eighty five reported during the
first week to Buck" Wharton and
Captain Hopper. Starting the middle
Of the first week and continuing until
Monday this number has dwindled down
to thirty five. less than half of the
original number TO report.
Monday Coach Heisman made il plaip
that a continuation Of such practices
meant only one thing. that the Red and
Blue would be that far back in the fall
when practice started. An effort will
be made this week to bring out more
candidates for the final week starting
next Monday.
Yesterday the gridron candidates had
their first strenuous workout sinre
practices started when they were sent
againsts the tackling dummies erected
during the morning. Many of the can :
didates were physically sore after their
first practice Of this kind. but were
pleased that they had gained that much
more knowledge for the battle that will
take place next fall for positions on the

0ESCHGER IN FINE
SHAPE--STALL|NGS
Long Game Didn't Hurt Former
Phil Finger, Says
Braves Boss

The Boston Braves. with fifty fifty
standing in the percentage table, are
here to battle our fighting Phils. The
hrst game of the series. which incl
dcntally will be the first bow of the
Braves of this young campaign before
local fandom. will be put on at the
usual hour--3 80. ..-
The Braves have Just been through
Q hectic series with Brooklyn. playing
forty five innings Of the fifty eight
staged by the Dodgers in three days.
Despite this strain on the hurling staff,
Boss Stallings declares in convincing
voice that his pitchers are in great
shape. ~.
"All my pitchers are in good condi-
ton" said Stallings this morning.
They will prove 1t against the Phils.
The long games didn't affect either
Oeschger or Fillingim.'
Don't YOU think that long game
against Brooklyn last year hurt Oesch-
gerE' Stallings was asked.
"Ies. but that was last year." was
his reply. "Joc wasn't in good shape
at the beginning Of last season. This
year he was right on edge at the start,
and for that reason the twenty six in
nings didn't harm him at. all. 1t was
just like pitching nine innings to him.
"Oeschger's arm is in fine shave right
now and he will prove it in the series
against the Phils. He will pitch one of
the games"
II don't know whom ] will work to-
day. never pick a pitcher until l see
how he looks during the warm up. Both
Rudolph and Eayres will warm up"
Eppa Rixey will get the assignment
to work for Gavvy Cravath and the
Phils. Eppa hasn't hurled since Satur-
day and should be abre to fling bewild-
cring slants from his southpaw.

Football has very few-if any
greater all-around stars than Tack

Hardwicks hands. They look to be
powerful enough to choke grizzly.
Bobby Jones at fourteen was golf
sensation. Why?. Mainly because at
fourteen he had the big, powerful hands
Of man Of twenty five or thirty. He
had enough power in his hands and
wrists alone to get fine distance and
main control over the club.

Iravers has had to depend upon the
Keen touch and accuracy of his short
game-his mashie work. his chip shots
and his putting.
Chief Bender has a wonderful pair of
hands, with long, wiry fingers. All
that Bender can do is pitch, shoot, play
