 We have the champion double play combination in baseball" he said. Thompson at secoi.d and Sand at Short are the best men at reeling off double plays I have ever seen. This pair doubles up runners with apparent ease. Both are demons on ground balls. They have first rate throwing arms and neither one wastes a seconds time in handling the ball. They should pull the Phil lies out of many tight places this season."
 The training grind here ended yes- terday and the Phillies were direct. ed to board a north. bound train at noon today. Thirty-two players com- prise the party. The loss of Frank ulrich. star pitcher. because of ill., ness. IS the only misfortune suffered by the club thus far this season.
