FAR SOUTH TO SEE
BABE RUTH IN ACTION

For the first time since 1914 when
under the leadership of Frank Chance
they trained In Houston, the Yankees
next spring will make a tour thru
Texas. Seven contests in the Lone
Star state feature the training trip
schedule of the New York American
which was announced yesterday by Ed
Barrow, the business manager.
Texas was favored by Barrow for
the good reason that not only have the
fans down that way not seen the Yam
KEGS in the last six years, but that they
never have seen Babe Ruth. While
Ruth and Bob Meusel will not play
in league games until May 20. they
will be permitted by Judge Lands tc
represent the New York club in its
training engagements.

FLETCHER AND CHASE TO
FLORIDA IN ELEVEN DAYS

Friends of W. Leslie Fletcher and
Ohio Chase of this city, who left Nor
wich on December % for Florida, have
received letters from Mr.. Fletcher de-
scribing his trip from Norwich to Mi
ami Mr. Fletchers letter follows:
AS you remember we left Norwich
early Thursday morning with the ther-
mometer lowering around the zero mark
and to Ohio and myself on the motor
cycle it seemed as though it was about
40 below. 1t was terrible riding dur
ing the day and we only made as far
as Jersey City, where we stopped for
the night
THE next morning we started out, fol-
lowing Mr.. Bottomley, who was leading
the way in a Ford. equipped for camp
ing, and believe me, camping was no
pleasure at that temperature. The sec
and day we got as far as Belair, Pa,
after trip over icy and slippery roads,
there being large amount of ice on all
the highways, and an especially large
amount on the hills. After Pennsylva-
MIA the temperature began to moderate
and although we encountered :nnum-
cradle hills the going was somewhat bet
ter. Virginia roads are dirt and are all
right If it were not for the mud. We
struck a bad stretch of mud between
Fredericksburg and Richmond. where al
times we sank to the hubs. The machine
was rather heavy to life, but di it and
finally go through to the Carolinas. The
roads here were somewhat sandy, but
not bad and the going was good until
we struck into Georgia. From Augusta
to Jacksonville. Florida, the roads were
terrible and Ohio certainly had a lo
of pushing exercise to get us through
We encountered a number of detours ant
on one Of these we lost the Bottomley
car which We found out later arrived IL
Miami day ahead of US.
From Jacksonville to Datona there Il
a narrow brick road, or what, used to b.
a brick road for there is a brick her
and there but the rest Is a hole. It fairl.
made us seasck and dizzy lodging tn
bricks and teams on this stretch but aft
/ er Datona the going was good. Tn
weather here Is Just like spring IN oil
Connecticut and It is a great country
| but, believe me. never again will I com
by the MOTORCYCLE route. We made tn
trip in eleven days, not bad for green
horn. considering our aimless wandering
in the desert wastes Of good oil
: Georgia"

RAINS DAMAGE ROADS
Tourist Travel Out of Texarkana Is
 Stopped.

Texarkana, April 6-The recent continued heavy rains throughout this section have worked havoc to practi- cally all the roads out of Texarkana and has rendered some of them, fo1 the time being, impossible. It still is possible for cars to go through tc Dallas by way of New Boston and Paris, but the road along the Cotton Belt line, by way of Douglassville and Mt. Pleasant, is in such bad condition that it would be very unwise for tour ists to undertake to negotiate it. It is said to be possible to get through to Queen City and Atlanta, to the south, but the road is very bad in the Sul- phur river bottoms in the vicinity of Faces Ferry.
 Going north and east out of Tex arkana, the only road now in safe is said to be that via Homan and Fulton, along the Missouri Pacific railway tracks. The roads by way of City and Dooley's Ferry are reported impossible.
