amount may be diverted to aid

But what we wished to stress
in bringing up the subject is
that the thought was originally

Sparrow meanwhile has been
working like a beaver behind

Mooney said:

the boys get together and form
q remembrance committee to
welcome Muddy Ruel upon his
arrival in Washington. I am
most thankful to you for your
interest and The Times in this
matter. Muddy Ruel is more
than deserving of any tribute,
praise and honor that can be
shown him by the, Washington
baseball public. He was a most
important cog in the old ma
chine that won us glory and
championships and it is a great
pleasure to me personally to be
able to remember Muddy. I

Track Employees Help

MY informant relates that on
the four extra racing days for
the Maryland spring schedule,
every track employee, and at
tache, is to donate his services
and that even those hard iron
men, the pari-mutuels, will op-
crate on a profitless basis for
those four days.
Thus, the racing patrons who
find they are unable to pick
winners on the days mentioned,
will have the comfort Of know
ing their losses are going to
the several efforts designated
by Governor Ritche toward re-
lieving human suffering.

make the ball players eyes pop
out of their heads. The st.

players table bills to 50 per

lowed on which to eat. It's a
cinch none of the Cards will
enter the season overweight.

ATHLETIC BEE.
BUZZESAT
SCHOOL.
By GEORGE A. SIMPSON

BY GEORGE "A. S1MFSON
The spring athletic bee is buz-
zing at the University Of Mary
land, with baseball, lacrosse, field
and track and tennis varsity and
freshmen teams preparing for the
engagements near at hand.
The varsity and freshmen
spring sports program will be va
ried and interesting, but many OBJ
stacles, chiefly in the nature of
deficiencies in material, stump the
coaches.
Baseball Reserves Lacking
Burton Shipley, now busy with
the varsity diamonders, finds that
a shortage of reserves may have
a depressing effect on the ledger
wherein are marked victories and
defeats. However, he has a sound
first-string combination, with DO
zie" Berger and Shorty Chalmers
as the pillars.
Then Jack Faber, who gave
Shipley invaluable assistance
with the varsity basketball
team, has been losing precious
sleep over the lacrosse Situa-
tion. 1t will be difficult to re-
place the six regulars and eight
lettermen who have departed.
The attack, without Bill Evans,
will be hardest hit, but Faber
is turning his attention to the
defense, which hasn't measured
up to qualifications during the
ScrimmageS.
Track Outlook
Consider the outlook for Geary
Eppley, coach of the tracksters.

around Jess Krajcovic, the lone
remaining leading point scorer
of the 1880 season and an all
around field man. The missing

miller; John Mcdonald, field
man; Bob Quinn, sprinter; Dick
White, sprinter and broad jumper,
and Henry Mcdonald, field
events.
However, Maryland sees a
better tennis team as the
racqueterS are Sturdier. The
Maryland netmen won but few

Miller, Jack Batson, Harry Mil
burn, Harry Hess, Arthur Hauver,

ger, Melvin Derr, Paul Cronin and
Ralph Sterling. Bob Wilson and
Lloyd Jones, who did not report
for the team last year, are bidding
for positions. Herbert Cramer,
ineligible last year, and Douglas
Knox, who transferred from the
Maryland Pharmacy School in
Baltimore, are also out for the
team. Leading prospects from
the 1880 freshmen are: William

BY JOE HOLMAN
(Times Staff Correspondent

BILOXI, Miss, March 23.-A
three-cornered fight for the
eighth pitching berth on Wash
ington's roster loomed today as
the Griffmen opened their most
vigorous week Of spring training
q, to date. The principals are Lynn
Griffith, Walter Tauscher and
Carl Fischer.
President Clark Griffith today
declared that eight singers likely
would constitute his teams 1881
staff.
Lefty Griffith, a 1880 minor
league strikeout king, has i'm
pressed to date. So has Fischer,
whose cannon-ball set the In
ternational League afire two
years ago. Tauscher, so far, has
taken things easy. But, it is re-
ported, once he opens up he may
show enough to warrant his re-
tention.
Extra Berth Wide Open
In any event it is virtually
certain that one of these three
will stick. And, since newcomers
will be at a premium on Wash
ington's 1881 team, it will be-
interesting to see who makes the
grade.
"That eighth job is wide
Open," Griff says. "The boys
haven't had q real chance to
show their stuff yet. But once
they get started, say a couple
Of weeks from now, we will get
3 pretty good line on the lucky
man."
Quite the most interesting
youngster in camp, according to
President Griffith, is that much
written-about chap, Cliff Bolton.
"I've taken the word of too
many people who said he
couldn't CATCH" the Old Fox
contends. "Any way you take
it he's a natural. He's handled
himself like a big Lacquer re-
Gently. And I've every reason
to believe he will improve"
Though battered rather severe
~ yesterday, Fred Marberry,
making his 1881 spring debut,
was loose and supple. Sam Jones,
who started the game against
Louisville, was surprisingly nimble.
