Here's one that will be on the
front end Of the procession. Is
dropped into what seems to be
mighty soft spot and only needs
clear sailing in order to ring the
bell. Crystal Ford has been work

safe. All this happens in the third

From where I sit it looks like the
only way they will trim Flying
Beauty in the days opener is to
leave her fiat-footed ut the post. Is
much above the ordinary and only
has One Pin to trim. The latter will
be second with Josephine weIdel,

good thing in the second. Smart

About That Famous Deal.

Save for the street corner debates
by the rabid fans there is nothing
new to Oe reported IN connection
with the plan OF Miller HUggius to
offer WalIy Pipp and Frank Baker
for Joe Judge.
Clark Griffith has had his say,
which is, that he won't part with
Judge He is now waiting to hear
frOom Higgins, having been inform
cd that the Yankee manager will
visit him this week.
The next development will be
when Higgins blows into town, u
he really plans to.
I know nothing more about the
matter than what appeared in that
story from New York. said Griffith
yesterday. "Huggins hasn't COM
municated with me recently"
In regard to that hoIdout rumor,
the National president denies that
Judge is dissatisfied here and is
pining for a change. No more than
the usual difficulty is expected In
getting Judges signature to 4 Son-
tract, he explains, adding tnat the
first sacker is usually late in agree
ing to terms.
Il know what Judge is worth and
that Is what ne Will get, says the
Old Fox, which woUll lead one 10
think that he is speaking his mind
right out in school.
Tampa Recruits Go South.
Two names from the list of
those who will go South with
the team were omitted by Pres
ident Grifhth the other day. They
are LaMotte and Foss, who were
discovered by Scout Joe Engel while
playing for the Tampa club last
season. They are going to get their
chance.

base, made an especially good i'm
