National League Standing
BERNIE STARR WITH YANKEES.
Barre Boy Is Getting Some Valuable
Experience.

That Bernie Starr of Barre is
getting some valuable experience
with the New York Highlanders is in
dicated by letter of Frank MeLaug"-
lin. first baseman on the st. Johns
bury baseball team, to a st. Johnsbury
man as follows:
"A few days ago | took trip
down to the Polo grounds and raw
Bernie Starr in his big league outfit.
He says he catches in batting practice
every day and likes it o. X. He told
me he rocked a couple into the right
field stand during batting practice.
Il went to the theatre with him in the
evening and we had quite talk fest
on baseball, past and present. lie SAID
the experience he is getting with the
Yankees is a mighty good thing for
a fellow and that he is trying his best
to deliver the goods.
while watching him preceding the
game | noticed that he keeps on the
Jump behind the plate, which would
indicate that he is anxious TO make
good with the big show He looked
to me like a good prospect. With the
experience he will gain on the southern
training trip in the spring he should
turn out to be a regular big Lacquer.

Members Of the cabinet have returned
