WITH TAMPA'S
CHIEFS TODAY
Old Fox Wants to Make Five
Year Agreement for Train
ing Camp.
BY LOUIS A. DOUGHER.

TAMPA, Fla, March 27.-Today
President Clark G. Griffith. of the
Washington club. will confer with
responsible heads Of Tampa's city
government and business men rela
tive to making this city the training
camp of the Griffmen for the next
five years.
An engineer of the Osborne Engi-
neering Company, who happened to
be in Eustis. Fla, on piece Of
work, has promised Griffith over
the telephone to be here today to
take part in the conference. He
will be asked to make some estimate
of the probable cost of improving
the stand and clubhouse at Plant
Field.
Il have every hope that Tampa 5
business men will see the advantage
they have in bringing a major league
ball club here every year." says
President Griffith.
'Tampu is now in the middle OF n
campaign to increase the population
1t is surely not going to overlook this
form of advertising. People in all
sections o. the country are hearing
about Tampa now through reading
about the big league baseball being
played here. The average man ma =
not read advertising. but you can bet
he reads baseball especially once the
big league teams begin training"
A large sign at Water Front
Park, st. Petersburg, announces
that the Boston Braves have made
the Sunshine city their permanent
camp, but an official statement
comes from st. Petersburg to the
effect that nothing has been done
by the Boston club in the way Of
signing up for even one more year.
On the other hand, several other
clubs are opening negotiations for
1928, wishing to take advantage Of
the wonderful weather over the bay
and the new baseball park.
1t is possible that President c..
w. Grant, Of the Braves. will reach
some agreement this week. He has
first call on the city for a training
camp.

But the Browns are absolutely
convinced that this is their year,
or 30 am given to understand by
folks who have been with them at
Mobile. They feel that for the first
time In many seasons they have a
well balanced club, combining Of
fensive power with defensive
strength and blessed with a lot of
speed. They figure that they have
improved both their pitching staff
and their infield at no sacrifice Of
needed ability elsewhere, and that
thus reinforced they are a first
class bet to win their first Amer
lean league pennant.
The Browns Of last year did
not have enough good pitchers
and were weak at second base.
As l recall II. they tried four or
five youngsters at the keystone
sack and hone proved satisfactory
until they landed McManus. This
young man has been going great
guns this spring I'm told, and so
have Gerber at short and Ellerbe
at third. The latter, by the way,
was much better ball player
last season than he was credited
with being. pretty fair fielder
and a far more dangerous hitter
than his old teammates at Wash
ingtOn ever thought he'd be.
With Sisler on first to complete
the quartet. the Browns have the
strongest and most successful in
field they have shown in several
seasons, and their outfield, with
Johnny Tobin in right, Baby Doll

close to the best in the league

are that the Browns will have a
very fair flinging corps this year,
