BARNARD SATISFIED

BY the Associated Press.
TAMPA, Fla, March 10.-E. 8. Bar
nard, president of the American League,
after visit to several Florida training
camps, finds no fault with the base bali
prospect, and that of his league In par
ticular.
IT believe we will have an exciting
race in the American League" he said.
Certainly two clubs, and doubtless
others, have been improved over last
year, and there should be some great
competition. am convinced that the
Detroit and Chicago clubs win be
stronger.
"If these two clubs have been
strengthened as believe they have
the indications point to some worth
while competition.
THE number Of young players OF
ability coming up in the last two years
has been impressive. We are returning
to normal conditions In the game. The
quality of play will be steadily improved
as result Of the arrival Of these
younger players, who themselves Twill
become better qualified as they gain ex-
perience.
From the standpoint Of prospective
attendance, my observations have been
highly satisfactory. Interest in base
ball everywhere seems to be enthusi-
aStic, and expect splendid season in
every respect"

of speak. For several years Bill Carr
rigan has labored patiently and cone
scientiously with the Red Sox material.
At the close of last season the club
was moving along quite smoothly and
it seemed to me that the teachings
Of Bill Carrigan were beginning to
make themselves apparent.
Undoubtedly many Of the young play
ers on the Boston roster nave profited
considerably under Carrigan's instruc-
tons. Players cannot be developed over
night. Often 1t takes two or three
years before rockies with real ability
strike their stride.
Has Hope for YOungsterM
am very hopeful that several of
the young players on the Boston club
who have been absorbing Bill CaHrigans
thoughts Of base ball for several years
viii be ready to break through this
season and prove q real help to the
cause Of the Boston Red Sox. i have
in mind two of our outfielders as ex-
ampleS Of what am driving at-Roth-
ready this year to play consistently
good ball.
No club can hope to get very far in
the race unless it gets its share of
good pitching We have 10 pitchers UNI
der contract. much quantity, and If the
quality is there 1t will help consider
ably. I feel that the pitching should
be improved this year If for no other
reason than the fact that youngsters
like MacFayden and Russell should be
benefited by a season of work in which
they took their regular turn.
Then there are the three veterans,
Morris, Ruling and CASTOR. who can
make plenty of trouble when right.
While Gaston's record Of IL wins against
10 defeats isn't impressive, neither is
Rulings victories and % defeats, yet
both these pitchers have plenty of stun
and can be mighty troublesome to beat

thinks Sweeney, who had a year at
Detroit, will stick this time.
Enough of the eff" stun, for again L
repeat, the business of managing big

rather than spill chatter For that
reason am content to feel my way and

recall seeing him hard aground and

the season.
LAVE you a compass? Does it point

usually is Certainly" accompanied by
a patronizing smile. And the answer
is wrong. Very wrong! In certain
localities it does point to true north,
but not in this one The non-magnetic

Who is dumping oil into the Channel?
Here of late there has been an un-
usual amount of oil on the surface Of
the water, the blobs resembling either
fuel oil or old crankcaSe oil. It's against
the law, kills fish, soils everything it
contacts and adds to the filthy con-
dition of local waters. Who is the
guilty party?
WHILE on the subject of navigation
Wv we almost forgot or pet story,
Ever hear of "barnyard navigator?
Well, they had em back in the pre-
power squadron days. Plenty of 'em.
Still have few. They worked some
thing like this. They'd start off by
guess, and hold onto the port tack
until through the night would be heard
q tremulous "Moo-o-o-oo." The bold
navigator would then change course
and remark to the puzzled guest, That's
Duck Point" Guest: How do you
know" "Easy-that's old man Burk-
ett's cow" Then he'd hold onto the
starboard tack for a while and in due
course he'd hear the bark OF dog
That's Swann's" he'd say, and go on
the other tack, and later explain that
old man Swan kept st. Bernard. 1t
Is further related that the untimely
demise of a we'll known rooster caused
four boats to go aground in the same
night for the same reason that mis-
takes are made on the foot ball field
the shippers could not hear their sig
mails.
So the whole system was easy and
boiled down to this-hold your course
for a while, then ease up and listen: If
you know your animals you know your
river. Cock-a-doodle-oo! Wurf! Wurf!
There's another tale about a mans
daughter I'D along the Chesapeake and
Delaware Canal who was forced to give
up her singin' lessons shortly after the
canal opened. She'd just gotten to the
point where she was fair to middlin'
"soapranner" when the canal folks got

The player first named has the white
pieces. It win be noticed that Bishop
third man, has yet to meet Byler and
Walker, top men, and he may defeat
either or both, in which event he may
yet be top man or tie for the place.
In addition to meeting Bishop, Byler
has yet to meet Carl Hesse, dangerous
opponent. Carl's chances for prize
are remote. because three men are
ahead of him, but should he defeat
Byler he has reason to hope, because
his father, who is his other opponent,
has not been playing a strong game
this tournament. Besides playing
Bishop, Walker has to play Bettinger,
and will need to put forth his best eff
forts not to fall back.

BY FRANK B. WALKER.

TINE fifth round in the tourna-
ment for the title of District
champion brought further
changes in the relative stand
ing Of the contestants. Byier was pitted
against Wimsatt and won from him,
and as Walker could get no better than
q draw in his game with Carl Hesse,
Byler occupies an undisputed lead, a
position he occupied at the end Of the
second round. Walker Is one-half game
behind. Bishop won from Bettinger
and displaced him from third position.
Knapp won from A. Y. Hesse. Bet
finger, Carl Hesse and Knapp each has
scored az points and are tied for fourth
place. one-haf game behind Bishop.
Wimsatt adopted Zukertort opening
against Byler At the end of the FIRST
evenings play each had a queen re-
naming, and Byler had 8 pawns against
held by WimSatt. The extra pawn
proved Su6icient to enable Byler to win.
Walker played an Alekhine defense
against Carl HeSSe. At adjournment.
after four hours play, the forces were
even, each side having bishop, knight
and paWnS. On the second evening
Walker soon won a pawn, which Carl
did not attempt to regain, as 1t would
have meant further loss. Walker tried
hard to win, but Carl played cleverly,
and after 81 moves draw was agreed
upon.
Bettinger tried q Caro-Kann defense
to Bishops p to K4. Bettinger con-
centrated his attack on Bishops kings
side, while Bishop attacked in the CEN
ter, later adding an attack on the
queens side. With the forces reduced
to two rocks, a bishop and pawns
apiece, Bishop launched an attack, to
meet which Bettinger gave up the ex-
change, but this proved to be tnsufii-
cient to save the game, and Bettinger
resigned a few moves later, after about
40 moves had been made
A. Y. Hesse accepted the queens
gambit pawn in his game with Knapp
He tried to retain the pawn, using his
queen side forces to do so. He did not
move his kings side pieces or four
pawns during the game. When called

signed. as he could not save his queen
