District colleges await the dry
ing out of the ground before
undertaking spring football prac-
tice. The same is true of Navy,
with Lieut.. Tom Hamilton, new
Navy coach, in charge.
Jack Hagerty, Georgetown men,
tor, is expected to arrive in Wash
ington Wednesday to take charge
of the Hoya spring grid practice.
Coaches Are Ready
At George washington, Catholic
University and Maryland, coaches
are ready for the initial spring
effort on the gridiron.
Two events are carded for Sat-
urday: the Georgetown Carnegie
Tech basketball game, which ends
Georgetown's season, and the
Catholic University-Western Mary
land boxing match.
If Georgetown can win Satur-
day nights game against Car
negie, the Hoyas will end the sea-
son with more victories than de-
feats. On the other hand, if the
HoyaS lose they will be in the red.
Carnegie Is Favored
Tech is generally favored to de-
feat Georgetown in Saturday
nights game. The visiting Plaid
quint is coached by Max Hannum,
who never played basketball, and
has this year achieved a fine
record.
Catholic University's boxers are
expected to encounter severe 60
ing against the charges Of Dick
Harlow. The boys from West
minister have a team rated much
stronger than c. us, yet the
penchant of the Cards of Brook
land for winning when they are
scheduled for defeat lends at
tractiveness to the bouts Of Sat-
urday night.

the one to come.
This spring the boys have gone
one step even further. They are
bringing out records on them
selves and are figuring how many
more games they'll win this year
over last year.
The pitchers, of course, are do
ing most of the talking. But the
catchers have had a little to say,
for being behind the plate. They
have been able to fully judge big
league opponents.
Won 22 Games
Take Earl Whitehill.
This veteran hung up record OF
% victories last year as against
eight losses. The club he was most
effective against was the Detroit
Tigers, his former "home team
He beat them four times for per
feet record while his other best
games were against the Chicago
White Sox and the Boston Red
Sox, whom he defeated four times
each in five starts.
Gen. Alvin Crowder'S easiest"
club was the st. Louis Browns. The
veteran was nothing less than
poison when he stepped into the
box against Hornsby's crowd.
Wally Stewart's cousins were
the Detroit Tigers and st. Louis
Browns. He defeated each of these
foes four times while losing only
once in five games against each
club. Wally also was quite effec-
tive against the New York Yankees
tive against the New York Yankees
Russell And Weaver
Then, there is Jack RuSsell's
case. And Monte. Weaver'S. Both
had the Boston Red Sox as their
easy marks, records of four vic
tories as against no losses having
been hung up by each hurler. Rus
sell, however, had several other
we'll pitched games to his credit in
contrast to Weaver's full record be
cause he was able to pitch where
Monte was not, due to illness. Be
cause of this Jack found time to
defeat the Detroit Tigers three
times, the Chicago White Sox,
twice, and the Cleveland Indians,
once, to Weaver's two triumphS
over Chicago, three over New York
and none over Philadelphia and
Cleveland.

Gomez announced to all and

GR|FFS To GIVE
ROOKIE EHURLER
ONCE OVER
BY GARRETT WATERS
Times Staff Correspondent

BILOXI, Miss, March 4.-Many
persons in the baseball world may
not even stop to consider who
Mark Filley is, or what he might
become in his chosen profession,
but the tides that turn the games
wheel might force his name into
the picture before too much of his
career has been we'll spent.
Maybe even, he'll become known
as early as this year, or before the
1884 training campaign of the
Griffmen has ended. 1t isn't i'm
possible as the baseball record
books on rockies will tell.
Mark, first of all is a pitcher.
He is not the property of the
Washington club, but is being
given a once-over by the Griffmen
on the recommendation of Joe
Cambria, of the Albany Senators,
OF the International League, Of
which club the youngster is a
member.
Mark is getting his trial because
Cambria thinks he deserves one.
The kids record both as a college
performer and minor Lacquer
warrants this, so says Cambria,
and from the looks of the same,
we are inclined to believe with
him.
Pitched For College
Before joining Albany, Filley
pitched for the Williams College
nine. He was a regular imme-
diately after his freshman year
and throughout his four years at
the institution, he won himself
"a games while losing only five.
Cambria saw him pitch a few
games at Williams and decided
without hesitation to give him
whack at the game at Albany.
Whereupon F'illey jumped into
professional baseball last June
where he Immediately began
rise to Stardom.
Cambria told him he could
pitch every fourth or fifth day
as a regular if he impressed in
his first few games, which i'm
preston Filley manufactured. He
won his first game. followed with
another and finished the season
with record of seven victories as
against only four losses. All told
he was in 16 contests, many Of
which found him filing in as a
relief finger as we'll as a starter.
Viewing the 1884 training sea.
son and his chances of making
the big league grade, Filley has
we'll founded ideas in regard to
the situation. He says:
I'm with the Washington
Club only on the recommended
tiOn Of Joe Cambria, and l
realize anything I do will be
taken with only the slightest
importance by the wiser heads
unless of course 1 impress.
That's exactly what I hope to
do. 1 know I have a tough
job, but I think 1 can get them
interested, even though 1 might
still be year or so away from
actual success as a big Lacquer.
At the least, I'm mighty CRATE
full to Joe Cambria for this
trial anG my only hope is that
I'll come through for him as
well as for myself"
Filley is quite a youngster for
a performer getting a onceoVer
by big league club.
FL Years Old
His actual age is 81. He
weighs about ITS pounds, stands
S feet II and gives one the i'm
preston of being stockily built
when in uniform. He throws
right-handed and is said to have
plenty of speed in his pitching
makeup.
Joe Cambria is hoping that he
will make the grade as it will
give him the chance to sell him
to the Washington Baseball Club,
or others that might be interested
besides President Clark Griffith.
The kid may do it at that.
