TACKLE WORLD
CHAMPIONS IN
SECOND SCRAP
Indians Drop First Tilt, but
Hoped for Better Results
Today.
VETERANS GET CHANCE

SAN ANTONIO, Texas. March %
Fifteen hits and nine runs was the after
Moons work of the New York Giants,
worlds champions, in the game with
the indianapolis American Association
team here yesterday, in the first OF a
tWo-game series. while the Indians best
effort was three runs, which came In
the sixth inning as a result OF Covlng-
tons triple with Baird and Rehg on
base and Schreiber's single, which scored
the Tribes hefty first baseman.
The Giants Waded into the offerings
of three indianapolis pitchers with
healthy results and began the scoring In
the first frame when Bancroft and Young
hit safely for one run The clan or
McGFaW began in earnest In the third
inning and nicked Lee Bartlett for five
hits, which. coupled with a base. on
balls, sent FIVE of the New Workers
scampering over the chalking platter.
Bartlett was a tri1e unsteady during
the time he occupied the firing line, and
Seib, who followed him, also was given
a Eousing reception, Snyder getting a
home run in the melee.
On defensive play the Indians rivaled
the world champions, and the work OF the
infeld was OF especially fine order. The
Giants were unable TO get away with a
thing here and Pug Csvet, who took up
the pitching work in The seventh, also
had the National League stars popping
up, and retired them runless.
Manager Hendricks planned to send
three veterans to the bi'lock In the second
game today, Jess Petty, Harry Weaver
and Clint Rogge being scheduled for
three innings each. The Indians were out
for this game and with an even break
stood g good chance to grab the contest.
The Tribe will leave for Marlin Springs
after the contest and viii play the
Giants second team there for two games.

when the Indians begin the trip North.

One hindrance to athletics In the city
hlgh schools has been the shortage Of
material By the shortage Of material
Is meant the number Of athletes who
turn out for the various teams and not
the number enrolled in school. For COM
parison, Tech il said to have almost 1000
boys In school and less than 200 turned
out for baseball. which means about
10 per cent. Some solution must be
arrived at to bring out the deskwarm-
ers.
More inter class competition would be
OF great value in locating some Of this
tagging material, for much of 1t could
be induced to play in this branch which
coul1 not be induced to try out for the
team, Tor there Is not the awe connected
with this line OF sport for the new
conner as with the varsity team. II
Is hard for this new material to break
the Ice, or rather they think 1t is hard
TO get into the select. group Of athletes
at q school, for there is always a certain
group who go out for all sports.
Compulsory athletics is Just another Of
the many suggestions and has It's good
points along with the rest Of them. The
schools have this more or less in the
gym work, but even this does not bring
the prospective candidate under the eye
or the coach. II 1t were only possible
for the coach to make the rounds and
pick his material, as Is done In the
"
This. Of course. would be q gigantic
task, but In time every boy would have
chance to make good.
Giving the team and the athletes moro
recognition or more glory, So TO speak,
might help In bringing out some who
have had the impression that the team
was hardly worth their efforts because OF
Imaginary poor support Of the student
body. In connection with giving the
athlete more RECOGNITION would Ia tho
setting apart of a certain section for the
letter men to witness games at homa
Ihis is done In many places with excel
lent results. and It soon lecOmes an
honor to be one OF the elect who are
permitted to occupy the section. This
would give added value to the letter the
athletes worked so hard to obtain.
Giving the athlete more encourage
lment TO go out for the team and CIV.
there. might help greatly.

Manager GcGraw sent his best bets
against Hendricks team, the regular
lineup playing with the exception of the
two pitchers. Virgil Barnes and Benton.
Both are making a good impression with
the Giants manager and apparently will
be retained ~ regulars. Barnes is a
brother to the Giants star, Jess Barnes.
Virgil vas with the Milwaukee club last

him solid with the Giants.

ting spree in the sixth inning when the
GrOh, Frisch, Kelly combination put

slow about the play and it was a sample
Of what National teams may expect from

Harry PurcelTs fielding was the best
he has done with the Tribe since his zp-
pearance. He showed little awkardness,
q fault which caused him to drop several
hy balls at Galveston, and which appar-
emily was caused by over anxiety.
CovfngtOn's triple was a screamin z
liner which both MeuseI and Cunningham
chased to the nag pole. Only the fastest
fielding held Tex 10 three bases.
With Frank Frlsch on second and
Heinie Groh on third, the Giants have
about the classiest aggregation Of In
felders ever brought together on one
team. Groh, Frisch and Bancroft all are
short and speedy, while the Giants first
baseman, George Kelly, is one Of the
tallest men In tie game. Kelly is a
great player and rounds out a truly
worlds championship infeld.
The Tribe was disappointed because
Ralph SINNERS, the outhelder purcha sed
from the Indians by the Giants follow

Association, was not in the game yester-
day and there was small prospects that
Ralph would don q uniform today. He is

House Mays the Senate

Criticism has BEEN heard in the low
er House of Congress because Of the
delays in handling public business in
the Senate. The tariff bill is the par
ticular source of worry to the House.
and that body wants the senate to !
deliver the law p. d. O. Naturally there
is lot of sentiment favoring the
speeding up of this particular legisla-
ton. Undoubtedly President Harding
is as much disturbed about the delay
in passing a tariff law as anyone in
the country. Senators who have the
bill in charge are chatting under the
delays of debate. The only difference
between this bill and its predecessors
is that the deyiays are stretched out
longer. That is due to the fact that
the war made new conditions that
upset all tariff-making precedents. But
| it is only fair to the Senate to recog-
nize the fact that every tariff bill that
has even been set to it was little
more than a hodge-podge affair thresh-
ed out IN committee of the House
whose main business was to reconcile
| all the traders and beneficiaries inter
ested in the different schedules. The
debate in the House is mere camouf-
lage and lasts but few hours. AS
result the Senate practically creates
the bill, does all the celebrating,
brings out all the criticism in its de-
bates, and in short furnishes all the
gray matter" that finally determines
whether there is or is not common
sense in the legislation. While the
Senate is going through these pro-
cesses of constructive hard-labor 1t
comes with mighty poor grace for the
Sinking House to nag the upper body.
Wood Impressed with Himself
The University of Pennsylvania has
refused to further extend its leave of
labsence to General Leonard Wood,
with the result that while they would
be glad" to have him remain in the
Philippines that they can not ask him
to remain in the Islands if he thinks
his duty to the University should de-
eide him to return to the United
States. Reports from Manila indi-
cate that General Wood Is so we'll
satisfied with himself that he will
likely remain at his present post until
the last of the year. The Philippine
colony in Washington have an idea
that General Wood will stay even
longer-in fact as long as he is permit
ted to remain. A delegation of Fill
pinos is now enroute for this country
to impress upon Congress the demand
of their people for an independent
selt-government These men represent
every phase of public life in the Phil
iippines and it is fair to assume that
they know what they are doing in
