DON'T GET UP NIGHTS
Lax the Bladder With Juniper
OIL, Buehu, Etc

Drive out the impurities and ex-
cess acids that cause irritation, bur-
ming and frequent desire. Juniper oil
is pleasant to take in the form of
'BUKETS, the bladder laxative, also
containing Buchu leaves, etc. Works
on the bladder similar to castor oil
the bowels. Get a 25c box from any
drug store. After four days if not
relieved of getting up nights" go
back and get your money. If you are
bothered with backache or leg pains
caused from. bladder disorders you
are bound to feel better after this
cleansing and you get your regular
sleep. E. H. Bratten, Druggist, Mil

They've heard from various
sources that Griffith and COM
pany are planning to go elsewhere
next year, and to keep this from
happening they're formulating
plans of their own to make Biloxi
the most attractive site in the
South, despite apparent thoughts
to the contrary.
Tony Ragusin, secretary Of the
Chamber of Commerce, is one Of
the hardest workers in this ere

his idea to get another ball club
here to cotrain with the Griffmen

the exhibition game problem
which has been a sorrowful
measure ever since the Griffs have

it believed. Yes, the Brooklyn
Dodgers, of the National League.

them to consider training here in

The question today is on the

Ryan gave as his reason for

the financial possibilities of the

Of Portner's Arena is exorbitant

In the camp of the New York
Giants there seems to be q
deep. dark plot against Blondy
Ryan. the guy who said ahead
Of the last world series that
"They can't beat u.s." referring,
Of course, to the Washington
team.
At the moment the remark
was charged up to Ryan'S
natural, boyish enthusiasm, but
as matter developed Blondy
turned out to be quite a prophet.
However, some one has come
along who can beat Blondy, and
it seems to be none other than
an old familiar figure around
the Giants by the name OF
Travis Jackson.
Bill Terry has announced
Travis whose legs went back on
him in 1882 and for part OF
1888, will start the season as the
regular Giant shortstop, replac-
ing Ryan. Jackson's legs have
quite recovered and his hitting
ability and experience have
prompted Terry to give him the
shortstop call-barring a re-
lapse, of course.
After the last world series,
you may recall, Joe Cronin de-
clared the work Of Jackson at
third base was the outstanding
fielding performance Of the set.
That Old Urge
There is an interesting case Of
the urge that big league playing
has on the average American
youth in the Orlando training
base of the Brooklyn Dodgers.
A 25-year-old practicing lawyer,
one Arthur Jones, by name,
closed his law office in Ker-
shaw, N. c., to take his fourth
try at making the big league
grade, as a pitcher.
The future of the law busi-
ness being what it is against
the future Of the baseball busi-
ness, Jones case is unusual, be-
cause customarily a lawyer is
just beginning to go great guns
at about the age in life when a
ball player is winding up his
active days.
On the occasion Of one Of his
three previous trials with the
Dodgers, Jones was farmed to
Hartford where he won 18
games. Last year he was sent
to Jersey City but only stuck it
out until June when he returned
to North Carolina and hung out
his shingle.
But when spring arrived in
the Carolinas this year, Jones
couldn't resist the temptation to
stroll down to the depot and get
aboard the Dodger special. He'll
find an understanding boss in
Casey Stengel who once walked
out Of dental school to answer
the call of baseball.

Racing Fans To Get
Fair Shake In Md.
Saliva Test RidS

With horse racing returning
to Bowie in about three weeks.
it should be heartening advice
to the race-going public to learn
that the saliva test has been
officially adopted by the Mary
land Racing Commission as a
means of detecting the doping
Of horses at all of the Free
State tracks.
Maryland tracks have not
been particularly marked by the
hopping" of horses, but the
very announcement that the
public is to be protected by
these saliva tests whenever
there Is suspicion to warrant it,
assures the public that every
thing is being done within the
power Of the commission to pre-.
vent shady practices.
Stewards to Decide
AS I understand the order,
the stewards of the tracks will
be the ones to decide when cir
cumstances merit the test. In
other words, only such animals
as appear to have crossed-up
their established class or which
in any other way suggest a "pe.
Culiar" race. will be DESIGNATED
for the test.
Such a method will eventually
weed out improper practices by
those unscrupulous owners who
would stoop to anything in or
der to put over a coup. The
saliva test is thought more equit-
able than a receiving barn where
every horse that is to run on a
given afternoon is quartered
considerably ahead of race time.
The receiving barn idea is con-
Sidered an unnecessary reflec-
ton on the many reputable
owners.
The steward who will repre-
sent the Maryland Racing Com
mission in its saliva test de-
cision is George Brown, jr., who
has been one of the stewards
at Hialeah. When he comes
north to undertake his duties, he
will be thoroughly familiar with
the manner in which the test
has been conducted in Florida.
Two convictions were secured
there and many cases investi-
gated, causing a curb to be
placed on the activities of the
Would-be smartsterS.

BILOXI, Miss, March S.-A
thorough, methodical program Of
training promises to feature each
day Of activity here as Manager
Joe Cronin sends his athletes
through their PAGES.
It's quite apparent as early as
this date, even though the small
army of Griffmen has been in
camp only four days. However.
it's been in Cronin's mind all
winter to conduct the 1894 grind
in this manner, and it is only
made unusual by the fact that it
is being carried out to the fullest
extent, much to the interest and
intrigue of every person on hand.
The pitchers are feeling the
"axe" more than any of the others
right now, because after all.
they're the most important per"
formers at camp at the present
moment.
Regulars Due March Is
But the catchers, infielders and
outfielders will get their share
very shortly, in fact, soon after
they've had enough time to get
the kinks out of their muscles
following their complete arrival
March IS, or a couple Of days
after.
Today, in between efforts to get
in shape himself, Manager Joe
Cronin is laying plans to help
every pitcher on hand to better
his chance of becoming a possible
big Lacquer. This, Of course, per-
tains to the rookie group mostly
as the veterans know what it is
all about and have been left to
themselves more or less to get
into condition in the manner best
suited to them.
Cronin has directed his atten-
tion to the rockies, either per-
sonally or through his coaching
system" involving Coaches Nick
Altrock and AL Schacht and
Catchers Moe Berg and Luke
Sewell.
Chapman Is Example

so to speak.
Now, a little about Cronin'S
future plans. The first Of these
involves Cecil Travis. To develop
this lad into a real third basemar1s
is the young pilots aim, and he
means to accomplish the feat even
if he is forced to hold special
afternoon drills with Ossie Bluege

Base-running, and cutting OFT
plays for both and infielders and
outfielders will be the point OF
order when the regulars hit camp.
Cronin will send his new out
fielder, Johnny Stone, through
special sessions for baSe-running
development, while he'll set up
drills for his other outfielderS for
throwing to the right base after
a hit.
For the infielders, Cronin win
hold special sessions for chasing
runners up and down the base
lines. The "boys" will learn how
to track" their man, how to get
/ together on covering the particur
lar base unprotected, and how the
throwing should be done, fast or

HOLDS
INTEREST Of
STUDENTS
By HARRY COSTELLO

University Of Maryland's most
interesting athletic event is now
in progress.
It is the intramural boxing
tournament.
This afternoon and tonight this
event continues. It started yes
terday afternoon. Because Of the
large entry, it may be necessary
to run the tournament into to-
morrow afternoon, possibly into
tomorrow night.
Youngsters Battle 1t Out
While Coach Burton Shipiey's
baseballers are striving for excel
lent physical condition, while
Coach Jack F'aber's footballers
and lacrosse players are going
through their PAGES, and while
Marylands thin-clads are putting
on the finishing touches for Sat-
urday's Southern Conference
track and field meet, a group Of
youngsters are battling it out in
the ring pitched inside Ritchie
Coliseum.
Contestants in Maryland's in
tramural championship boxing
tournament are alleged to be
short of varsity caliber. They are'
except in one quality: courage.
Yesterday afternoon, this oh.
server, on a visit to the Maryland
campus, watched six bouts in the
intramural competition. He had
intended to watch the varsity
football men, the varsity lacrosse
men and the varsity baseball can
didates. He failed to see a min
ute of football practice, or base
ball practice or lacrosse. The in
tramural boxing was too inter.
esting, altogether too attractive
to bother with ordinary varsity
activity.
Action AboundS
Unsung, except by few staunch
classmates, the intramural boxers
assembled about the ring. AS
names were called they entered
the ring. A few instructions
from the referee and pair OF
these tntramural youngsters went
as it hammer and tongs.
Speed was lacking in the box
ers (if they could be called that), ,
and footwork was conspicuous by
it's absence. Cleverness, too, was
nil. Punching prowess? There
was none. But-and it is a large
but-these intramural boys while
in the ring actually express the
ideal of collegiate athletics.
This intramural boxing tourney
at Maryland is worth going miles
to see. It is a lesson in common
sense conduct Of collegiate ath-
letics. # only all intercollegiate
competitors could be made to sit
in and watch this intramural
event, intercollegiate athletics
would be the better for the les
son taught by these intramural
youngsters who are short Of var
sity ability.
If you would see competition
Of the purest quality; if you
would see athletics at their very
best: if you would see sport un-
adulterated by the money motive
well, go out to Ritchie Coli
scum this afternoon, or tonight.
You'll not regret the trip.
