On top of the estimated mileage OF
the travels of ball players In the
Springtime before the regular sea-
son opens, 100000 miles more should
be added for side trips, exhibition
games and that sort of thing. Then
a notion may be had as to what it
means TO start the national game
merrily on its way. p.
On the way back from the coast
there will be little exhibition phil
andering on the part of Pittsburgh
and Chicago. There will be more by
st. Louis. Branch Hickey says his
players would rather play ball in a
game than to play for exercise, so
he hooks them up wherever the
transcontinental trains stop.
The teams down in Florida will
play a lot of exhibition games, both
in that State and on their way home.
Florida, in fact, is so speckled with
exhibition games that the State looks
as IL 1t had base ball freckles all

Add the mileage of the players OF
five other leagues--the American AS
ISOLATION, the International League,
the Southern Association, the Pacific
Coast League and the Western
League-and the total will be about
100000 miles.
1t will take more than $4,000 meals,
on a conservative estimate, to care
for major league ball players from
the time they assemble until they get
back where the fodder must be pro-
vided out of their personal funds.
One-third of these meals naturally
will be breakfasts.
Ball players have an inherent fond
ness for ham and" at their morning
meal IT will take at least $500
hams and not less than 100000 eggs
to nourish them properly and keep
them happy. Other food will have
TO be provided in like quantity and
on a similar basis of estimate, but
It is extremely essential that much
care and pains be taken in the mat
ter of ham and eggs.

major league teams gone to the Pa
