D. C. BILLIARDISTS'
RALLY BRINGS WIN

A notable triumph was scored by
Washington billiardists in their an
nual 1872 balkline match with Bal
timore GUESTS, concluded last night
at the Lewis -Krauss Academy. Enter
ing the fourth and final block of
the inter-city tournament, trailing
by 103 points, E. B. Powell and
Frank Turton outshot the Baltimore
men consistently and brought victory
to this city, 1000 to 1888.
When the third block was COM
1900 to 1907 advantage. 1t had
outscored the Washingtonians all
the way and there were few here
who believed there was a chance of
a local success.
But Powell began the startling up
set when he registered 253 points,
including run of %, high for the
block, while II. E. Crook of Balti-
more was completing his string of
200. This achievement that narrowed
the Baltimore lead to so points was
followed by a demonstration most
unusual at billiard matches, Wash
ington rooters in their enthusiasm
shouting and waving their hats
wildly.
Then Turton took the table against
c. H. Crook. When the latter got
away to a good lead. it gain seemed
that Washington would be unable
to overhaul the opposing team. But
Turton quickly swung into brilliant
cue form, forged to the front and
with a final run of Is reached the
$500 mark, having )utscored his op-
ponent, $50 to 1SS.

YALE SHOULD HAVE
STRONG BALL TEAM
BY WALTER CAMP.

Joe Wood has looked over his base
ball squad up at New Haven and he
found eight catchers and twenty
pitchers out for places on the Yale
nine.
Think what eight catchers and
twenty pitchers would have looked
like to the coach or captain in the old
days. He surely would have refused
to believe his eyes and supposed that
instead of the battery candidates he
had the whole squad.
over them all, "Ducky" Pond stands
out in bold relief. No Yale man ever
can forget his work last year In the
deciding games against Harvard and
Princeton. And his work in foot
ball-that run of his through a soaked
field for a touchdown at Cambridge
still further marks him out as hero.
Still, Wood would like to see Hola-

material. Behind the bat he has Bill

as well as Hinchcliffe, last years

whole the material looks very prom

1t is held that a glass bottometl
boat is the only article of glass that
is really homogeneous for spring

There is nothing at Santa Catalina

toward the mainland, but il IS so rar

the player would be inoculated With

The field on which the Cubs per-
form is admirable. There are no late

Cubs practice later than any team in

ROe's Methods Peculiar.
Buck Roe. the fork-handed South
ern Association product, another OF
the quintet of fingers who graced
the mound. has the most peculiar
method of pushing pellet plateward
that has been unfolded i'm camp this
spring. He has a herky-jerky mode
of mound maneuvering which gives
re casual observer the impression
that he is merely going through the
motions of pitching without any in
tention of actually doing il.
S. S. Nicklin, owner OF the Chat
tanooga Club, with which Roe won
some so per cent of his games last
season. is on record with the predic-
tfon that Roe will make a lot of fish
Of the fail wielders in fast company
If his efforts are properly directed.
According to Nicklin. who achieved
something of a reputation for hitting
himself when he was pastiming in
the big show under the name of
Sammy Strang, the youngster can
bust EN- by in great shape SO long
as he sticks to a strictly overland
delivery, but is only an ordinary per-
former when essaying the side-arm
style that he prefers. On the afore
mentioned, Sammy's say so Roe is
being confined in all his work to TAX
inch of height.
Ray Joyce was the other young
ster summoned to serve on the hill
lock and he made the best showing
of any of them SO far as control was
concerned Even the veteran Al

and hurled as many into the dirt as
reached the gloves of Hargrave and
Tate, who divided receiving duties.
Make an Enrly Start.
An unusually early start was made
for the practice, the athletes all be-
ing in uniform at $50 o'clock. and it
was fortunate this was done, for
after an hour of toll the gloomy skies
made good their threat with a. drizzle
that promised to develop into a
steady rain. The outlook now is for
continuance of the low tempera-
lures that are causing the natives to
shiver, but the mercury will have to
