ART FLETCHER, NEW MANAGER OF PhzZLLES;
 EXPLAINS HIS THEORIES ABOUT BASEBALL
FLETCHER LS DEFINITELY THROUGH AS PLAYER

Leesburg. Fla, March 24.--Art Fletcher, new manager of the Phil lies, once star shortstop of the New York Giants, has definitely decided that he is through with active serv- ice.
 In some circles it was believed that Fletcher as manager of the club would make an attempt to get into playing condition in the belief that his presence in the lineup would strengthen the Phillies.
 Fletcher, however, has dispelled such gossip by the announcement that he isthrough. Only the direst emerg- ency will cause the new pilot to get back into the game.
 It will be remembered that Flctch- CT retired from the game for year. At that time he believed the retire. ment was permanent. The years lay off caused Fletcher to lose some of his sprightliness and despite every ef- fort to regain it he cannot come back to time form.

EIGHT EX-GIANTS
 NOW WITH PHILLY
Two of These, Henline and
 Walker, Are Near-StarS

Leesburg, Fla, March Elf pen pant atmosphere means anything 10 a manager, Art Fletcher should more than make good.
 On his Philadelphia club are a half dozen players who formerly wore the uniforms of the New York Giants.
 Of the players once under the di- rection of John McGraw, and secured by the Phillies in trade, two have all but reached the stage of stardom, Walter Henline and Curtis Walker.
 Then there is Goldie Rapp, a big star in the American association, for whom McGraw paid a fancy price, only to have him fail.
 The fans of New York had consid- erable to do with the failure of Rapp. Touted so highly they expected too much, with a result that Rapp broke under the strain of criticism.
 Rapp will captain and play third for the Phillies. Fletcher thinks he is about due to show, and be another Philly player to give the laugh to Me- Graw and his judgment
 On the pitching staff are two for mer Giants, Hubbell and Winters, al- though neither made much of an im- pression while with New York.
 Walter Holke, the first sacker, came to Philly from New York via Boston.
 In addition, Fletcher will have as his coach Pat Ragon, who, after end- ing his days as a pitcher, for time acted as assistant to McGraw. So that in all eight former wearers of the New York uniform are now on the pay roll of the Phillies.

PITCHING STAFF HARDLY
 GOOD ENOUGH TO CHEER
Lee Meadows is Sure Bet and Ring and Hubbell Counted Upon
 to Help.

Leesburg, Fla, March 24.-Pitch- ing Is the main hope of every biG league banager.
 On that score Manager Fletcher Of the Phillies cannot do much boasting, His staff hardly measures up to big league standards.
 The veteran Lee Meadows, the be- spectacled twirler. is his one sure bet. Meadows has about become convinced that there is no chance for him to be traded to New York and may be con- tent to make the best of the situ- ation in Philly.
 AS his second best bet Fletcher of fers Lefty" Weinert. For several years Weinert has been toiling for the Phillies with indifferent success. Fletcher is convinced that Wcinert has arrived and that he will prove it beyond a doubt the coming season. Another youngster on whom Fletch- CT is banking is Mickey" Behan, se- cured from the Hamilton club of the Mint league. Twenty-one wins in 25 starts was the lure. In the fall of the season Behan won four out of six games for the Phillies, cery cred itable performance.
 Pinto, a Cuban southpaw, with the Phillies last year. but didn't get much of a chance. is listed among the pos abilities. Pinto has the stuff but is inexperienced. For that reason Fletcher greatly regrets the club didn't send him out last year.
 The veteran Jimmy Ring and Will bur Hubbell are the other two hopes of Fletcher. Winters must show or go.
 What National league club isn't?"

HERE IS WHAT MAKES THE LOUISIANA REFEREES AND UNI FIRES CRAY Y-HEADED-THE DOB SON TWINS. BOTH ATHLETIC, BOTH RED- HEADED, so MUCH AL IKE THAT THEY CAN HARDLY BE CALLED BY NAME. THEY A RE SHOWN HERE IN SEVERAL SPORTS.
 | Shreveport, La. March 24.-There will be deep sigh of relief lleaved collectively and individually in June by all prep school umpires in this section.
 The Dobson twins - red headed, equally proficient in athletics and as alike as the well-known two peas
 will be graduated from Shreveport High school. This means an end to four years of trying to determine whether it's Bob or Lee who is on bases and Lee or Bob who is coach- ing. It will simplify matters for scorers, too, and even their own teammates won't be throwing the ball to Lee, thinking he's Bob, or forward passing to Bob instead of Lee.
 Fors four years the Dobson twins have been prominent in athletics at Shreveport High. They have always starred in football, basketball and baseball. while they both win points for the track team-one half miller, the other sprinter. Their identity is always a puzzle to their school mates as we'll as to opposing teams.
 "In football, one of our own play CTS became puzzled, and threw the ball to mo instead of my brother"

Fletcher feels sure that Sands will i'll the bill despite the fact that he hit only .267 in the Coast league last year. There seems to be no doubt but that his fielding will measure up to big league standards.
 Fletcher is of the opinion that he will hit as well in the majors as he did in the minors If so, he will prove a very valuable addition to the Philadelphia club.
 Should Sands fail to come through Fletcher is well fortified in Wright sone. The youngster batted 1905, and filled in most acceptably at three of the infeld positions. In 35 games at short he led the National league in that position with fielding average of .966.
 Fletcher is confident Sands and Wrightsone will keep him from hav- ing to break into the game. He will appear in uniform, however, and do the coaching at third,

 Both boys have splendid records as fair athletes, and have been picked for several al-state high school teams

Albania Shuns Turkey;
Turns Toward West

Tirana, Albania, April G.-Litt'c
Albania, with her narrow strip OF
mountainous territory and her scant
one million people, rebels against
paying any of the debt of Turkey for
the reason that the former Ottoman.
Empire, after collecting its tribute
here, never so much as built bridge
constructed road, or erected a
sch DOL. according to members of the
newly constituted Albanian parlia-
mcnt, which has been meeting in
laborious sittings since the New
Year.
The sum assigned to Albania for
payment was 100000 gold francs, or
about $150,000, but this sum, the dep
uties say, would make very scri-
Gus drain on the public finances.
Albania is still the wild and undo
veloped country she has always been
without a mile of railroad, almos t
impossible roads and but one or two
schools at most The government,
constituted on the order of repub-
lie, is bending every effort to collect
sufficient revenue to meet the annual
expenditures, figured at 100000
gold francs, or about $3,600,000,
which represents but fraction Of
what the United States government
spends in a single day.
Though there is great deal of
Turkish influence left i'm this small
and primitive country, the present
tendency is to throw off all Of the
Ottoman bonds and lean toward
Western civilization. Instead of send
ing their sons to COnstantinoplc for
their professional training, the we'll
TODD now send them to Paris, Lon
don and Rome. Even in dress the
tendency is to turn to the West for
leadership.
The toy capital, located here, is
now putting on the airs of it's mis-
sion by the establishment of legations
and consulates. Both England and
America maintain legations here,
while Italy is represented by a con-
sulate.
