urated to-day by Miller Higgins,
he boss of the Yankees training
amp The little manager believes
that the members Of his kindergarten
class have now progressed far enough
to indulge in some real baseball. so
far there has been only batting and
fielding practice.
II the weather is warm this after
noon the young pitchers win begin
putting something on the ball and the
recruits will have an opportunity TO
hit against curve balls for the first
time this year. BY starting the prac-
tice games now Higgins can get a
better line on some of the youngsters
who have already shown promise of
developing into big leaguers.
One OF these players Is Al Wingo,
the outfielder from the Atlanta Club
of the Southern League. Wingo,
right now, looks like a finished ball
player and Higgins has taken a fancy
to both his fielding and batting.
Wingo Is a brother Of Ivy. the catcher
OF the Reds.
Mack had him two years ago, but
released him to the Atlanta Club
Last year he played in 151 games for
the Crackers and finished with an
average OF 292. He Is one of those

though he has driven me out Of base
"The reason that two pltchers--Ben-
ton and Toney-.Were both included in
the bride was that my friend did not
know which one McGraW would pitch
that day.
"Toney started the game. pitched a
few innings and was taken out OF the
boz by Christy Mathewson, who was
then IN charge of the club. He was far
from being at his best form.
AS Tor kan1, he jumped at the offer
that delivered TO him, and said: I'm

Yankee Youngsters To-Day Start
SeUen-Inning Practice Games

He was recommended to the club by
the veteran, Bob Gilkes, who also
discovered Tom Sheehan. Wingo Is
good judge OF Fly balls and can get
over the ground with much speed.
Higgins will most likely keep him
with the team all season.
Walter NJ. Christensen, the midget
outfielder from the Calgary Club OF
the Western Canada League, played
in the outfield yesterday afternoon
and showed Higgins that he Is real
Dall hawk, reputation that pre-
coded him here. Christensen Is won
derfully fast on his feet and like a
jack rabbit in skipping over the
ground. He went away back to the
centre field fence yesterday and
caught a long drive that Bob Connery
hit to him.
For a little fellow Christensen hits
the ball hard. He Is only feet 7
inches, yet last year he turned in an
average of 345 for 112 games. Ruth
was the only Yankee player to hit
better than this last season. Nelson
Hawkes., the other young outfielder
from the Calgary Club, was out for
practice yesterday. Hawks, however,
Is a six footer and weighs IT'S pounds.
He is a harder hitter than Christen-
sen and last season batted 1859 for lie
games. He also stole 40 bases. He
worked out at first base yesterday
afternoon and handled himself well
around the initial bag. He and Chris
Jensen both make their homes IN San
Francisco. The pair probably will be
sent to some minor league team under
an optional agreement.
Aaron Ward Is on his way here and
may reach the camp some time to-
day. Higgins, however, has heard
nothing from his three hold-outs,
Peck, Collins and Meusel He is ex-
| pecting a telegram from Meusel to-
