With their indoor intramural

ably next week, when Coach Lynn
Woodwork begins his annual
hunt to round up a baseball team.
Although it's field is far from

candidates in three sports at
Western are ready to begin work.
With Athletic Director Ahern
splitting up his time between
the football and track squads,
Coach Clifton Moore is confining
his time and attention to The
development of the baseball team.
The veteran coach, Bill Foley,
is finding his hands full with a
large number of track men at
Central. Interest in the inter
class meet has doomed the track
and field sports considerably,
with the result that large num-
ber of boys who never before took
part in athletics are now fitting
themselves to complete. Baseball

Eastern and Tech athletes also
are devoting their thoughts and

for the coming campaigns in

for their preliminary work. Later,

This is brief, was Catcher Mud
dy Ruels Appraisal of Pitcher
Ad Liska following the latter's per-
formance against the Louisville
Colonels yesterday. Two errors
cost Ad a run and tied up the
score at all in the eighth. His
mates then rallied in their Sec
ton, and registered the counter
that gave him the verdict, 80.
Liska got credit for the win.
Myles Thomas pitched three
runless periods at the start. Boo
Burke was nicked for a single
marker in the fourth, and the
Colonels were leading 10, when
SouthpaW Earl Browne, Colonel
Rookie, turned over the mound
to Joe Deberry, a right handler.
The Griffmen rallied to reg
lister two times in the fifth
when consecutive singles by
Rice, Barnes and Myer
counted Ruel, who had
walked, and Burke, who had
beat out a bunt.
Errors by Mcleod and Myer
cost the ,Griffmen a run in the
eighth, but Benny Tate's timely
single put over the winning run
in WaShington's half.
Getting back to Liska, the
original subject, the submarine
ball pitcher, who used to work
against practically this same
Louisville club, showed everything.
He kept the ball low and inside
and occasionally let loose with
battling hook-something he did
not have last year.
Also the former Minneapolis
singer broke loose with a change
Of pace and had perfect control
Of the ball.
Babe Camel and Melbern
Simons, ex-Washington players,
were among those to pay tribute
to Ad.
"He's got everything" Babe
said after one turn at the
plate. HE certainly can dust
that ball in there"
"Ad ought to make a swell
pitcher" Simons echoed, "let him
get away to a good start and
watch him travel"
To which Ruel added:
81 said Liska would make good
last year. His luck ran bad then.
But he'll click in 1880. Just watch
and See."

PENSACOLA Fla. March IT,
Under a new manager, Charles
CHeinie) Wagner, the Boston Red
Sox, cellar champs" of the
American League, are rapidly
rounding into form at Pensacola
Park. They are a young, lively
aggregation and, according to
Wagner, may cause plenty OF
trouble" around the circuit this
year.
Wagner would make no pre-
dictions as to where the Red Sox
would finish in 1880 but he will
be greatly disappointed if they
do not make creditable showing
from the opening gong. He
realizes he has inherited a hard
job in taking over the manage
ment of a club that the veteran
and experienced field general, Bill
Carrigan. could not make into a
winner.

to beat. We are well fixed with

Wagner said he has five first

lost IA with the club last season
In spite Of the fact that Boston
finished last; Charlie Ruffing
Milton CASTOR, Jack Russell and
Danny MacFayden. All are right
handlers and hard workers.
Several of the rookie pitch
ers look good, according to
Wagner, but he thought it a
little too early to pass judg-
ment upon their merits as big
league material.
Wagner is shy on southpaN
material. OF the 1S pitchers ir
camp, only two are "lefties." Oi
the right hand rockies, Wagner
said he had been impressed BY
23-year-old Frank Mulrooney, Z

13 games and lost 8 with Pitts
field last season.
Wagner declared he has not
made up his mind regarding the
infield. Several hard hitters up
from the minors are trying for
the places of the regulars who did
not hit SO powerfully with Boston
last season
Bill Sweeney, who hit .385 with
Toronto last year, is after the
veteran Phil Todt's position at
first base, Todt hit 1862 last year
for the Red Sox.
Otis Miller, who hit BAT for
Milwaukee In 1929. is trying hard
for Bill Regarfs job at second
base. Regan's batting average last
year was .288 and he will be hard
to oust. The shortstop post has
developed into a battle between
Harold Rhyme and Bill Narlesky
who hit .252 and PIT, respectively
for Boston last year. Ernest Hol
man, who batted .307 at Shreve
port last season. is trying to land
Bob Reeves job at third base
Reeves. hit only .24S with the Red
SoX last season.
"The Outfield probably
will be made up of Bill Bar.

The new Red Sox manager
has been giving his club hare
daily workouts. Wagner believe.
in a lot of running for his player.

and he has made good use of thu
