SENATORS TO PLAY
SEVEN WITH GIANTS
Clubs VIII Wind Up Training
Trip With Games at the
Polo Grounds.
MEET AT JACKSON, TENN.
Programme Calls for One Con-
test in Washington and
Two in Harlem.
by DANIEL.

Spring training plans for the Giants,
completed yesterday by Joseph O'Brien,
call for a grand windup in the form of
series of seven games with the Wash
ingtoh club. The New Yorks will start
their battle with the Senators and Wal
ter Johnson at Jackson, Tenn, on Mon
day. April 4. and will carry 1t right into
the Polo Grounds. where contests will
be played on Saturday and Sunday.
April and 10. One game will be played
at Washington on April s.
The series tops off one of the most
attractive training schedules yet ar
ranged for the Giants. a programme
which calls for games with the Sena-
tors, Tigers. Indians and Athletics, in
addition to various minor -lague outfits.
The little tour with the Senators will be
the sixth affair of that character in the
history of the Giants. The first was
tried with the Detroits in 1916, and
proved so successful that it was repeated
in 1917 The Tigers might have been
taken along $50 lin in 1918 but for the
rumpus between Ty Cobb and Charley
Hcrzog. In 1913 the Clevelands made
short trip with the Giants. and i'm 1918
and | 920 the New York's travelling COM
panions were the Red Sox.
The Washington club will train in
Tampa, Fla. and previous TO meeting
with the Phillies. who will prepare at
Gainesville Ella. On Sunday. April 3.
the Giants will play in Memphis and the
Senators viii he in Chattanooga. From
these points their paths will converge at
Jackson. where gathering Of at least
10000 has been guaranteed by the Cham
Der of Commerce.
Then Into Knoxville.
From Jackson the major league cara
van Of more than one hundred persons
will move into Knoxville, Tenn, making
an overnight jump OF $50 miles. There
will be another long journey the next
night, from Knoxville into Petersburg,
Va,-a trip of more than fifteen hours.
The Giants had to charter a special for
that leg of the journey in order to avoid
another day on the road.
On Thursday. April Z. the clubs will
show their wares to the fans OF Norfolk.
who are strong for the Giants. 1t was
at Norfolk that Christy Mathewson
gained his first prominence as ptcner,
and it was from there that he came to
