BUILDING DUGOUTS
ON NAVY DIAMOND

ANNAPOLIS. Md. March 1.-THE
Naval Academy baseball diamond
will have something of the touch of
a big league park during the COM
ing season as work on dugouts for
the home and visiting players now
Is under way and probably will be
completed in time for the opening
contest of the midshipmen's sched-
ule which will be with Princeton
March 26. Excavations have been
under way for the last few days and
the dugout for the visiting Squad
is nearing completion. 1t is on the
southeast side of the greensward
between third base and home plate
and is thirty-five feet long. That
for the navy squad will be about
ten feet longer and will be on the
northeast side between home and
FIRST. The dugouts will be comfort
ably equipped and besides will af-
ford a shield to the players from
the rays of Old Sol.

Maeks Are waking Up.
All of which is introductory to the
fact that there are signs Of better
days in Philadelphia.
Instead of being the unanimous
choice for seventh position. as they
have been for yeahs and yeahs. the
Mackmen are one of the most-talked-
of teams In the circuit.
Since he last copped a pennant
and was whitewashed in q world
series back in 1914 Mack has been
making strenuous efforts to build UP
the team he wrecked with malice
aforethought. He has broken a
worlds record in trying out over 500
ball players. At last there are signs
of a return to life under the sign Of
the White Elephant.
Though the AS trailed the field
last year, they showed lot of latent
ability. One of the most encourag-
ing features was the pitching stan

to be the main cog in the machine

though Galloway and Grimm may be
replaced with stronger material The
first sacker Is q good fielder, but
weak on hitting. while the shortstop
lacks something both In the field
and at bat.
When regular berths are finally
awarded It would not be surprising
to see Maurice Shannon. the ex-Na-
tional. capering around the short
field for the Mackmen. This temper

SAN ANTONIO. Tex, March IL
Benny Kauff will not return to the
Giants training camp here. And be-
cause of the loss OF this early train
ing II Is ALMOST a certain forecast
that the McGraw outfielder will not
be in the lineup when the cham
pionship season begins next month.
After two days in camp here
Kauff was ordered to report to Judge
Landis at Chicago. Benny complied
and yesterday he was ordered to re-
turn to New York by Judge F. x.
McQuade. secretary-treasurer Of the
Giants. Benny received his orders
after Judge Landis in Chicago had
conferred with Judge McQuade in
New York by telephone. :.
Kauff's sudden return to the big
town is occasioned by the indict-
'ment pending against him there. In
discussing the matter here today

Macks to head the second division

Boston in hot competition for the

of the game the Red Sox appear to

Boston fans have been in an ugly
frame OF mind ever since Babe Ruth

already out that they are further

Playing in Boston will hardly be a
pleasant task for any of DufIy's ath-
letes and the outlook looks almost
