IL is rather strange. then. that a
player who can do so many tricks
with the golf ball was unable 20

IL is possible that trick golf calls
for a different coordination Of mind
and muscle than the competitive

find the same phenomenon.

NOTRE DAME NINE
MAY TOUR SOUTH
ON TRAINING TRIP
May Arrange Jaunt During
Easter Vacation Would
Serve Double Purpose.

Although X. X. Rockne has made
no official announcement regarding
the baseball season as yet, it is
deemed highly probable around ath-
letic Headquarters that Coach Walter
Halas will lead the baseball squad
into the southern states on q train
ing trip during the Easter vacation.
A definite statement to this effect is
expected shortly, when the baseball
schedule for the coming season is
announced.
Notre Dame basebalI-teams in the
past few years have been handi-
capped at the start of the season
i'm meeting teams that had spent
several weeks limbering up in the
south. and were in mid-seasOn
shape This is the common prac-
tice with conference teams, and the
Irish suffered through neglecting it
in the past The college schedule
is a short one. at best. and unless a
southern training trip is taken, the
end of the season approaches before
the team has hit its best stride
The trip will take Notre Dame
through southern Ohio and Ken
lucky. and probably farther south.
IL is reported and will include a
number of games with colleges in
that part Of the country It Will
serve a double purpose, first, to get
the men in playing condition. and
second, to enable Halas 10 get a line
on his men and develop a team that
can stand up we'll from the very first
of the season.
The task Of developing such a
team is a mighty difficult one De-
spite the fact that more than so
candidates are out for varsity this
year, Notre Danes prospects are
not exceedingly bright In the first
place. Halas must find a whole new
outfeld, and practically an entire in
field. as only Micky Kane is left OF
last springs infeld. That means
that he must develop from the re-
cruits six men who can field run
and hit well enough for varsity
baseball The pitching should be
well taken care of this year. how
ever. as the members of last years
staff have returned and are avail
able, together witt several pros
