One by one the members of Griff's
supposed holdout squad are falling
into line as the time approaches for
the last OF the regulars to make
their spring journey to Tampa next
Saturday. ts
The latest of the holdout brigade
10 come into the fold Is Joe Judge.
nfst sacker, who yesterday signed
the contract rendered him by Sec
retary Eddie Eynon. Secretary
Eynon did not heave a sigh OF re-
lief or anything OF that sort when
Judge signed and neither will Clark
Griffith when he hears that the
FIRST sacker Is ''in."
The truth Of the matter Is that
JUdge hadn't the least idea of de-
serting the Nationals. and Griff and
Manager Milan knew II. The diff
ference in salary was so small that
neither interested party thought for
a minute that the knot could not
be united without either Griff or
Judge weakening
Now that Judge has finally gone
through the formality of signing
the papers. the list OF holdouts Is

Turk report with the rest Of the
bunch he will leave here next Sat-

Only two players, Sam Rice and
Pitcher Olaf Erickson, were in the
second squad to start from Wash e

Emerging from the Hdists and the
multitude of 1915 a small, select
group stepped forward to be classed
for the first time as the Big Four
of American amateur golf.
These four were Francis Ouimet,
of Boston; Chick Evans and Robert
A Gardner, OF Chicago, and Jerome
ID. Travers. of New York.
Seven years ago they were the
topliners along the right of way.
But seven years are a long stretch
upon the competitive highway. The
Big Four has now changed TO the
Big Five, and one Of the old guard
Is no longer rated that high
It is a queer turn of things that
the first of the Big Four to drop
out, and the only one, was not only
one of the greatest match players
Of all time. but he was also the
leading collector OF golf crowns We
refer to Jerry Travers.
Up through 1915 he had won four
amateur championships and one
open title, a record no other Amer
lean amateur has ever reached.
But after 1915 Travers, through
the pressure of business, had but
little chance left for competitive

the place Travers had vacated.
Jones has never won a big ma
tional championship But for all
that he is one of the greatest ANA
teurs in the world and having just
reached 20 has performed some of
the most astonishing feats in rec
ord In his last three amateur
championships he has gone to the
finals the semi-final and the last
eight.

Early in the campaign of 1891 the
Big Four remained intact. They

Gardner.
why should they have been called
the Big -Four? Partly through past
achievements in big tournaments
and partly because any one of them
would have been favored to beat
any other golfer in the country over
the 36-hole route.
Guilford's main feat at that time
had been to win the Massachusetts,
open the year before from a field Of
fine professionals.
At Hoylake he gave Cyril Tolley
a rousing battle. losing only when
Tolley dropped two corking puts
on the sixteenth and seventeenth
greens.
Cuilford's next move was to be-
come amateur champion of Massa-
chusetts, beating Ouimet in the final

PENN STATE BOXERS
LOSE BY FORFEIT

ANNAPOLIS, Md. March 4.-Box-
ers of Pennsylvania State College
and the Annapolis Midshipmen COM
Eeted in a fine series of bouts here
tonight. The Middies were credited
with a victory by reason of the
fact that State had no entry for
the heavyweight fracas, and there
by forfeited to Matthews. the Navy
entry. Otherwise the contests re-
suited 3 all.
Navy drew first blood when LattA
won over Benze. but then the Nit
tany Lions took three In a row.
Capt. Chaplin. OF State, outfought
Sebald in the 125-pound event, while
vasilio, a clever fighter, was too
much for O'Donnell,. although the
Middle put up a plucky fight Then
Bordner. of State, got the decision
over Severn after a gruelling mill.
With the score standing : to 1
against them, Capt. Zotti scored for
the Middies when he barely won
over Taylor, States long and lanky
entry in the 1s0-pound event, and
oRegan. fighting at IFS pounds,
evened the count of wins when ne

Black. This bout was stopped about
midway of the third round.

because of the rain Of Friday and
Saturday.
While a majority Of the teams
will be practicing others are sched-
uled to hold meetings to prepare
for the business end of the game,
before stepping out on the dis-
monds.
Officers Of the Peerless Athletic
Club. which will be represented by
fast nine this season, are scour-
ing their neighborbood for a play
ing field. They have a site or two
in view that they expect to lease
before the season Is ushered in.
Mike Moran will coach as well
as play with the team. George Cobb
who has been connected with the
club ever since the inception of the
organization has been chosen as

seating Capacity Increased.
The addition of the second tier to
both the right and left field pa
vilion will increase the seating
capacity of the park to more than
$4,000. almost 5000 more than could
be accommodated heretofore. This
does not mean that the capacity of
the park will be limited to that
figure, as there were more than
$4,000 paid admissions to a game
last season.
The advance sale OF tickets in
dicates that the attendance record
will be smashed at the opening
game. More tickets have been sold
since they were put on sale than
were disposed in a months buying
last year.
Griff's customers have seen the
last of the outfield bleachers known
as the jury box. Announcement
was made yesterday that the wood
en- stand had been torn down. This
was done because of the small num-
ber of fans who have witnessed the
games from the box" Last year
the average number in the box was
seventy-flve on weekdays and $50
on Sunday.
The passing of the old stand will
inaugurate a new system of ad-
mission for what was formerly
known as bleacher seats. Under tha
new plan, the first seventy-five fans
to ask for bleachers seats will be
admitted to the pavilion for 80
cents during the week day games
and $50 on Sunday.
The removal of the jury box will
add about fifty feet Of space to the
playing field. according to Secretary
Eynon. 1t will give the fly chasers
more ground to cover, though very
few balls were hit As far as the
box last year.

Boston, Chicago and Atlanta are
the main centers Of American skill.
These leaders face one of the busf-
est campaigns of all time, what
with the growing 81 M here at home
and threatening gestures from
abroad with the pick of British
talent contemplating another coun-
ter-attack.
The three main tests that offer
opportunities will be at Prestwick,
Scotland, in late May; at Skokie,

Any outsider. from the long list
of good ones. will have a hard time
breaking through this line-but in
golf anything can happen. ThRe
are veterans who are far from being
thorugh and there are crack young
sters coming on who have gained
enough experience to be more than
usually formidable. Such stars as
Ruddy knepper and Jimmy John
ston from the West are not to be
overlooked. They have the game
and the determination to get some-
where. Paul Hunter from Califor-
MIA, has improved immeasurably.
The East. with all its golf, has few
good youngsters coming on. Jesse

younger element since Fred Wright

Youngsters from New York's many
thousands playing golf have been
extremely scarce. In fact. New York
has made no headway Whatsoever
in national golf affairs since the
reign of Travis and Travers.
In recent years the West and
South have shown far greater I'm
provement in youthful play than
the East where in the main veteran
campaigners are still in the saddle.
And outside Of Ouimet and Guilford
none of these has advanced to any
considerable height in the last nine
years, although woodie Platt

1921 when Max Marston moved for

The Big Five will again be largely

shot chance that any one else will
