WIGGIN WHIPPING
TEAM INTO SHAPE
FOR R. |. INVASION

Bates College, April 30-With the
weather conditions somewhat of a
stumbling block to the Bates ball
tossers, Coach Wiggin is doing all
that is possible to whip the team into
shape for the Massachusetts and
Rhode Island invasion Thursday, Fri
day and Saturday.
In facing Tufts, Providence and
Brown Bates will no doubt be play
ing the hardest games on the sched-
ule. Providence and Brown are both
reported as supporting fast ball clubs,
while Tufts handed Maine an s to 0
beating last Saturday.
On Monday, practice was somewhat
hampered by a strong wind, but yes
terday being milder, the men were
put through series of workouts.
After a short batting practice, the
seconds took the field and tie varsity
was kept at bat for considerable
length of time. Much attention was
given to offensive play. After this,
the seconds were dispensed with, and
the varsity was sent through some
snappy inheld practice.
Captain Joie CoSan who is still on
the crippled list nursing an injured
knee, INDUCED III Il part of the play
taking it easy so as to prevent any
further injury. Captain Cogan feels
confident that the team will furnish
some keen competition on this week
trip. The plucky little captain also
stated that he expected to don his
uniform during the trip, in spite of
the fact that the slightest ~ injury
might put him out for the season. .
In summing up the prospects for
the Bates ball t6ssers, It will be noted
that at the start of the season, news
papers predicted strong pitching
staff for the Garnet crew. and q some
what weak hitting aggregation. 1t is
noticeable that in the four games al
ready played. the dope has been prac-
tically shifted around. But the pros
poets look considerably brighter as
the pitchers are expected to round IN
to form as soon as warm weather sets
in.

tennis ranks over the player-writer
issue. which has resulted in the
Withdrawal of William T. Tilden and
Vincent Richards from the Olympic
and Davis Cup teams, was widened
further today in spite of efforts to
pave the way for settlement.
Latest developments in the con-
troversy that has shaken the rae

interference in the row, II was learn
ed that pressure is being brought
to bear from that as well as other
quarters to have the entire case re-
viewed. On one authority here it
was said officials of the association
plan within 10 days TO meet and
map out definite course of action

Before Richards handed his form
