Bert Griffith Has
Big Day With Bat
AtDodgers' Camp

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. March 6.-The
Robins had two more real workouts
to-day under bright sun. The morn
ing session lasted about two hours
and every member Of the squad in
dulged in hitting practice, with many
rookie hurlers performing on the slab.
In the afternoon, after tue players got
warmed up, the series between the
Regulars and Yannigans was resumed.
The game went nine rounds and the
end of the battle saw tho Regulars
hanging onto the heavy end of to 5
count. The game was closely fought,
as the score indicates, and the de-
Gliding runs were not made until the
eighth session, when Ivan Olson
cracked out Dagger with the
bases crowded.
Cadore, Shriver and Brown each
worked three innings for the Regu-
lars and the Yannigan hurting was
supplied by Ruether, Gordonier and
Vance. The Regs scored their first run
off Ruether in the opening round, and
it was the resul, of an error by jan
vrin, long single by Tom Griffith and
forced out at second base.
The Yannigans took the lead in the
second, when Bert Griffith found Ca
cracked out three-bagger which
chased Griffith home. Roseberry scored
on McCarren's sacrifice fly. In the
same session the Regulars took the
lead when Schmandt doubled, Ward
tripled and Hungling raised sacri-
flee fly.
In the third round the Yannigans
tied the count when with two down
Janvrin singled, stole second and scored
on Bert Griffith's second two-bagger
the Regulars. With one out Neis was
sion. Tom Griffith doubled and Zach
Wheat followed with another two
bagger and one more run was added
to their total.
the fifth while Shriver was hurting for
the Rebulars. With one out Neis was
hit by pitched ball after Janvrin flied
to right. Bert Griffith made another
long hit. 1t was a three Dagger to
right and sent Neis home. The slugger
scored on a single by Sam Post.
The Regulars got to Vance in the
eighth and won the game. Schmandt
and Ward singled, and after Hungling
tanned Brown made scratch single
to the pitching slab which filled the
bases. High forced Schmandt at the
plate, but Olson leaned on one and it
went to right center for two bases,
scoring Ward and Brown. High also
tried to cross the plate, but was cut
down.
Post started the Yannigans' half Of
the eighth with a triple, but Brown,
the Regulars pitcher, frightened up and
did not allow run to be scored off
him in the session. Gordonier looked
worry. good in the game. He Is right
handler and one Of the most promising
Of the rookie pitchers. Grimes and
Johnston have not been heard from
and President Ebbets may have some-
thing to say regarding the two absent
players tomorrow.

Colonel Jacob Rupert, our eminent
citizen Of upper Fifth Avenue, who
yearly provided new runabout ard
limousine models for George Herman
(babe) Ruth and Harry IT. Frazee,
was happy man yesterday afternoon.
For the first time in weeks the grim
spectre of Ruthless Yankee team.

Colonel Jake's Simplex the day he lost
his gas tank, had faded into the mists
Of past doubts. His demure and VIC

had lifted the trunk off Jake's back
or the load off Til's chest, as you
prefer.
"Tickled to death that Ruth has
signed" beamed Colonel Rupert to a
coterie Of interviewers.
Il never was seriously disturbed over
the prospect of his failing to come to
terms. But then, you know, there is
only one Ruth, and while there was a
possibility Of some hitch. well-the
skies didn't look SO bright as the
weather man sometimes predicted.
Ruth is the greatest drawing card
in baseball, of course. He is a team
in himself But that is not ALL You
cannot conceive what moral effect his
presence has with q ball club. Take
the last worlds series. 1t was the
injury to the big fellow that finally

of a fan SO [ ever was and / go out to

Colonel Rupert admitted that he
had not been fully apprised as to de-
tailed circumstances in connection with
the signing Of Ruth. There has been
a great deal of wire trouble between
this city and Hot Springs, Ark, and it

that signed the big fish OF the Yankee
pond
Il have fairly good idea of what
transpired there" he admitted, "tor
Colonel Huston did not act without ad-
vising ne fully by wire. Some of the
messages were not gramma tically clear

was rushing by special delivery mail
complete draft of the agreement be-
tween Ruth and Huston. The various
clauses relative to bonuses, side agree
meiitss etc. (if such there be), will be

mediately to New Orleans so as to be
laid before Ruth for his signature upon
