Weather flinders Butler

Inclement weather prevented a double
workout this morning for the Butler
College baseball squad, but the aspirants
for the Blue and White niIe braved the
rain and mud long enough for a lengthy
afternoon session. Both morning and
afternoon practices we're originally sched-
uled, but weather conditions early today
made the morning session practically i'm
possible.
With the first game Of the season with
the Indianapolis American Association
Indians Just ten days distant, Coach
Page has men carded for some overtime
work In an effort to simmer the large
squad down to a well -rounded baseball
team. A large squad will be carried all
year and it is probable that no more
cuts will be made by the Christian men
tor, but the fight the twenty men are
waging for regular positions Is a merry
one.

GOOD PITCHING
STAFF is BEST
PIRATE ASSET
Weak Hitting Club DOped to
Be in Race Because of
Sterling TwirIers.
SCHMIDT IS HOLDOUT
BY DAVIS j. WALSH.

HOT SPRINGS, Ark, March ~
Glance down the probable batting order
Of the Pittsburgh Pirates and you will
note a list of estimable young men who
score not, neither do they hit. There is
scarcely a normal 300 hitter In the entire
array.
Fielding? Quite all right. Pitching Z
Yea, oh yea, al ample Sufficiency. Speed ?
\ great plenty.
Looking over the regular lineup, we
have selected btu three men who figure to
be there with the stick. They are Char
ley Grimm, a great first baseman; Carl
son Blgbee, the outielder, and Walter
Schmidt, the catcher. Rabbit Maranv1lle
is a good little man in G pinch, but
doesn't figure to hit above .260. Indeed.
Grimm has yet to achieve anything
family resembling q 300 average in his
two seasons as a regular, although lie is
considered a good hitter.
or course, Hal Trayner, the new second
baseman, and Clyd> Barnhart at third,
may come through with the stick and in
that case we will be constrained to re
wise our estimates. In the outtield, Glib
sol has engineered a shift, sending Max
Carey to left field and Bigbee to center.
This is being done to prOlong Carey's
baseball life, now gently waning. Max
is another Of those not altogether robust
hitters. He gets on a lot, however. Right
field will be left to the tender mercies Of
Kay Rohwer and Johnny Mokan.
The Pirates, it wiz be recollected, got
away running last year and made a
show of the National League race until
they caved in abruptly in mid Septem-
Der. Here again you have the matter
of hitting. On that 1921 team were
Rabbit M~aranvilee hitting up around
$40, for the greater part Of the early sea-
son; George Cutshaw about the same fig
ure and Cotton" Tierney, a recruit, even
higher.
All were ranging 100 points above and
beyond their respective heads. Therefore,
when they began to come back TO normal
the club started to lose.
There is not better balanced pitching
stan in all baseball than that mustered
by the Pirates, and for this very essen
tlal reason, the team must be regarded as
a penant contender from first to last.
No two ways about II, they are really
the downright goods and appear to be
In great condition.

INFIELD P CLASS

MARLIN, Texas. March H.-Manager
Jack Hendricks Indianapolis American
Association club today was stalking
around with much eclat following the de-
feat handed to the New York National
second team here Sunday afternoon in
which the Indians battered two Giant
pitchers for ten hits, four Of which were
hOmers, while the Indian pitchers. Hill,
Petty and Cavet stood the big leaguers
OF and performed in grand style. The
work Of the Tribes pitchers far exceeded
their previous performances and Hen
bricks has lost a few Of the worries
which were Occasioned by recent actions
OF his hurting corps.
The Indians maItreIted mclaughlin
and Rachac, hopping on them early in the
contest for three uns.
The game Sunday was a long distance
hitting contest with the two clubs divid-
ing honOrs fOr home runs. The Tribe
annexed the game through superior de-
fensive play, the Indians infeld raliying
around the pitching several times. The
game was played without error. Eight
hOmers were chalked up by both clubs,
Lefty Morrise1. Indianapolis center field
CT, leading in this respect with two, and
bringing his spring training game record
10 four circuit drives.
Jess Petty was touched for all the
runs which the Giants made, but despite
this fact the big left handler was gong
through his best work this spring and
the five runs which were tailed off him
probably never would have happened in q
larger park where the outfielders would
have had a chance to get the long hits.
Hill started the game FOR the Indians
and 1t appeared that he was to remain
in the box for a short time when he
walked the first three men to step TO
the plate. He recovered brilliantly,
however, and pulled out Of the mire by
striking out the next three. Not a
hit or a run was made of his delivery
In the three innings he occupied the hill
lock and Sc struck out five OF the Giants
hitters.
Petty who relieved him, found matters
a bit rougher and home run hitting ac-
counted for all the chalkers against him.
Lefty Morrison put the team in the lead
by dropping the ball out Of the lot In
the seventh frame for his second homer OF
the afternoon. The game was sailed
away in the eighth through an error on
Rehg's %grounder, a walk to Attresu. and
Purcell's bunt, which developed into a
hit when the speedy outielder outran
the throw by Hale. Schneider responded
with a s~carifce fly which counted Rehg.

Big Three Is Going to
Fix Up Grid Situation
and Make It Lily White
By HENRY L.

NEW YORK, March 27.-YaIe, Harvard
and Princeton still pet each other with
the notion that there is no place but
Princeton, Harvard and Yale.
Having been told there is something
terribly wrong with football, Harvard,
Princeton and Yale, have set about to
find q cure in their characteristic fash
ion. One of the surest remedies sug-
gested is that Yale, Princeton and Har-
ward play only at New Haven, princeton
and Cambridge, thereby not subjecting
their teams to contamination from the
wicked outside world.
The insinuatiOn is also carried that
those not fortunate enough to attend
Yale, Harvard Of Princeton should come
within the fOrtresses of virtue thrown
around the football fields Of the big
three and see how the game can be made
safe for the in~nOcents.
IntersectiOnal games are also frowned
upon. the suggestion being offered That
Yale, Harvard and Princeton should care
for nothing else but the big three
games. After holding up Yale, Harvard
and Princeton as the lofty examples OF
football perfection, 1t is rather strange
to see the doctors from the three in
situations approve Of a new rule that
would require every athlete to give n
sources Of revenue.
No doubt the West and South will be
quite shocked to learn that a CON
tamlnated athlete might go to Yale, Har-
ward or Princeton.
There seems to be q lot Of smoke about
the necessity Of cleaning up football.
Many Of the sore spots that seem to have
been found on the game are imaginary.
Just because some Illinois and Notre
Dame players went on a lark and played
in a professional football anne. so we
are expecting the wrath Of the Gods to
fall on the Nation.
The ones that are yelling the loudest
about star college athletes getting some
money out Of their talents are the same
ones that are doing the same thing
which classes are commanding twice the
money that a player can get for an &C.
casional game.
