SCOPES AT TRAINING
George Sisler Says Baseball Players Are Born and Not Made at Spring Training Camp.

St. Louis, Feb. 1o-Baseball players are born and not made and they learn virtually nothing" at the spring training camps, in the opin- ion of George Sisler, playing man. ager of the St. Louis Browns.
 "A training camp is merely a place where the men can acquire physi- cal condition to prepare them for the pennant race" Sisler said. "A player can't learn anything from coach. Of course, a pitcher. may learn grips, but even there the knowledge he acquires is negligi- ble.
 After you're born a ball player you have to play steadily to develop your skill. The greatest schoo is the daily game"
 sisler said he preferred the col lege to the sand lot player. other things being equal. Net because he knsws any more baseball, but his education will enable him 10 learn the little things about baseball that marks the difference between the l big leaguer and the bush leaguer." !"

|FR|GER|O FASTER | DESPITE DEFEATS
Italian Walker Smashed Three
 World Records This Week
By The Associated Press.

By The Associated Press
 New York, Feb. 1s.--ugo Frigerio, Italian walker and Olympic cham pion, has been stepping faster than ever before In his career despite the setbacks he received from Willie Plant, American champion. This is revealed by a comparison of his times here and in previous competi- tion abroad.
 The Italian likes the longer dis tances best q fact he demonstrated this week when he finally broke into the record breaking class by setting new worlds indoor marks for five and six miles and 10, o,o00-meters. His time forthc 10000 meters. 4S;50 4-5, was about two minutes faster than his winning marks in either the 1920 or 1924 Olympic championships at that distance. He won the title last year at Paris ip 47:49, which in 1920 in Antwerp, his winning mark was 4S:06 t-5.
 'Frigerio has never shown the speed of Peorge Gouldipg. famous Canadian; Rasmussen. the Danish star; or Plant. His Olympic triumphs while decisive, were scored chiefly atthe expense of mediocre tealent. McMaster, South Africa. who was expected to be real rival at Paris fell below his reputed best form. while Plant did not represent Ameri- ca in these games. None of the exist ing outdoor records are held by the Italian.
 Frigerio's realization, after several defeats, that he was no match for Plant at shorter distances, has led him 10 cancel engagements to meet the American at any distance under four miles. At that distance or over, however, Frigerio is confident he can take the measure of his rival.

The Troop subs were rushed in 10 finish the game and Derrick kept things going by adding another pair of fled goals to make the final count 3S-14.
 Clark was the individual star of the fray, getting eight field and one foul goals. The Lawsons played well at forward, Elmer doing some nice feeding to his brother and Clark. Ericsson and Lockwood completely broke up Troop 2Q's offense. Der rick and the other substitutes made good. Kleist was the lone Troop % player to score consistently, Battag- lla being the only other 10 find the hoop. The winners showed some nifty passwork in the last quarter.

(BY BILLY EVANs)

An unusual record was created by a recruit in his first season as a major leaguer when Shortstop Glenn Wright was the only National leaguer who played every inning at his position during the 1924 season.
 Wright. graduated from the Kan sas City club of the American As sociatien, is touted as one of the best prospects ever plucked from a minor league club.
 The youngster made such favor able impression the first day in the Pirates training camp last spring that he immediately was given the shortstop position and Walter Maranyille, who had stepped be- tween second and third for 10 years, was shifted to second base.
 And then Wright went out and played every inning during the sea son.
 i I'OurQier Pressed Wright
 Wright was pressed bit for these honors by Jacques Fournier, who appeared in each of the 155 games played by the Brooklyn Su- perbas, but the veteran first sacker received relief in five games,
 The Pirates did less shifting at | . "a lac season, as Eddie Moore was the only player who covered more than one spot, He appeared at third, second and the outfield.

LAST WEEKS SNOW TIPS
PLATFORM SCALE AT RED
LODGE AT 1925 POUNDS

That the snow which fell in this
Sunday and Monday was
heavy beyond reason is common
knowledge to all whose misfortune
it was to have to clear sidewalks,
but the first accurate figures on the
watery tonnage were discovered Tues
day morning by Dan Mcintosh Of the
Cash Grain company.
He left his scales balanced Sunday
and they were not disturbed Monday.
Tuesday morning, after much Of the
water had undoubtedly seeped through
the floor and been lost, the scale
showed that the Sx16 foot platform
was under a load of 1925 pounds Of
snow.
Reduced to square feet this is an
average of nearly II pounds to the
square foot or approximately two and
a half inches of precipitation.-Red
