ShOrtridge,
Manual Net
Teams Clash

Manual and shortridge, local high
school sports rivals, will settle the
question Of cage supremacy when
they clash tonight in a feature tilt
at the north side gym.
Coach Peterman's Blue Devils. In
a slump after winning eleven
straight contests, hope to end their
losing streak, which now numbers
four. The Shortridge mentor prob
ably Will start Gage and Hickman
at forwards, Berns at center and
Bulleitt and Bradford at guards.
Manual, despite an upset in the
opening tilt of the city tourney by
Broad Ripple, has shown flashes of
power this season. Coach Bridge
ford has pronounced his team in
top shape, and probably will start
Stuart and Regenstrief, forwards;
Kleppe, center, and Welton and
Hanna, guards. Reserve teams will
battle in preliminary.

American Association pitching.
Whether or not he becomes a regular
this year is question, as Joe Judge,
who has had the deed to first base
at the Griffith Stadium for fifteen
years, led American first basemen in
fielding last year and batted 1876.
Two other infeld recruits are
listed in the Washington roster as
released today by Henry P. Edwards,
manager of the American League
service bureau. Baxter Jordan, who
frSt-based for Newark in 1880 and
batted .349, and John Dashiell, who
played a sensational game at second
for Chattanooga and batted .281
will be seeking bertls.
Washington recently was in dis
tress as regards outhelders. True,
it listed Henry Manush, most effec-
tive batsman; Sam Rice, who seems
to be growing younger every year,

No Changes Expected in Mats
Lineup; Kuhel May Share First

and Sam West, just about the last
word as a fly chaser, but West had
trouble with his arm last year and
it has been rumored the whip still
is bothering him.
The Mats only replacement was
Dave Harris, whose long suit is
batting rather than fielding, but
GriffithS added Harry Rice, secured
on waivers from the Yankees, and
Tom Clark, brother of Earl Clark
Of the Braves, as reserves. Clark
played with Providence and Port
land, Me-, last year, becoming a free
agent when his league disbanded.
The Senators will be we'll equipped
with battery men. They had the
most effective pitching staff in the
league last year with Marberry,
Jones, Hadley, Liska, Crowder,
Burke and Brown. Added to that
array, Carl Fischer, International
League southpaw; Walter Tauscher,
a veteran from Dallas; Lynn Grif-
fifth, Western Association southpaw,
and Peregoy and Fidler, Blue Ridge
League right-handers, give Manager
johnson a formidable array for 1881.
Muddy Ruel has been sold to
Boston, but Washington still has
five catchers, Roy Spencer, first
string receiver in 1890; Red Har-
grave, acquired on waivers from De-
troit; Coach Ed Gherrity, Ed Kenna,
recalled from Chattanooga, and Cliff
Bolton, who also can play the out
field.
With the opening Of the season
two months away, it appears that
the Senators will take the field
about the same as they finished in
1890.

Luque who was signed last season

Quinn, Luque and Vance are

cries, spit ball, curve and fast ball,
