It was through no fault Of Bill kopf that the Braves were trounced yesterday afternoon by tha Giants. The former local boy had very busy day, getting two hits in four trips 10 the plate. He scored one. Of the three runs. In the field Bill accepted ten out of eleven chances. Another newcomer in the big leagues acquitted himself finely in his debut, Ills name is Harry Shriver of the Dodgers. He allowed the Phillies three hits yesterday. This start Is better than Mathewson or Walter Johnson got away with in their big league start.
 The Wascda University of Japan Is proving the better baseball team in the series with the Indiana University team of America.
 Joe Fitzpatrick and Mickey" Noonan have signed articles to play with the lvoryton team of the Con- necticut River league. A number of men from down the river were in town yesterday looking up ball tossers. Fitzpatrick played with Portland for a time last year and the manager of the team this year wanted him to sign up. He had already signifed his in- tentions of playing with Ivoryton, and will be seen In the uniform of that town this year.
 They tell us that the rivalry in that league is very intense, the whole town turning out to back up their team. Even the girls are said to chip in 50 cents week to pay a pitcher and catcher.
 Joe Fitzpatrick may yet be seen in Southern league uniform this sea- son. According to latest reports he has made an offer to play down South. He says that he would rather play first base in league ball than pitch semi-pro ball.
