is the latest addition to the twirling

He, with Sam Lyman, make up a pair
of pitching aces sent to the Barons by
the Detroit Tigers to form a nucleus
for the mound staff this year.
A practice game will be staged at
Redwood between two picked teams, led
by Manager Stuffy Stewart and Coach
Harold Irelan, respectively, Saturday
shortly after noon. The encounter is
slated for five innings. A practice

outstanding recruits on one hand and

largely from pitchers and catchers.

Robertson.
At first base the appearance Of Herb

Donald on the other will offer an OPP
portunity to see how these two con-
tenders for the bag compare. Bremen
seems to be a neat fielder, but a little
weak with the bat. Mcdonald Is left

Second base will be occupied by

pitcher or catcher will probably have

opposing team.

Frank Kane, speed artist from Rome.

These two youngsters are rated as,

At third base Petey Brausen and

teams. Brausen, who finished last sea-
son with the Barons, has been in camp
for about a week and Is in fairly good
shape. Young came to the Barons as
a first baseman, but his fast fielding
showed him to be good prospect for
a position requiring a fast man.

NEW ORLEANS, March 21.-Black
Gold, the swift 3-year-old colt owned
by Mrs. n. NJ. Hoots Of Tulsa, Okla,
and winner OF the $4,000 Louisiana
derby at jefferson Park Monday, is on
his way to Kentucky, H. w. Webb,
trainer of the horse, suddenly deciding
to move him northward instead of re-
manning here until warmer weather.
Black Gold, an entry in the Kentucky
derby this season, has undergone a
sudden change in the opinion OF the
landscapes as a result of his victory
here this week. when he carried 1913
pounds and won on a muddy track
with ease. Those who figure on the
chances of a derby entry months in ad-
vance have cut their odds on him from
40 to /, to 20 to /, according to word
received in track circles here.
