and Cambridge athletes who died for

Foot ball may be entering upon a
new era, declared Blaik in discussing
the recently introduced rule permit
ting a lateral pass beyond the line
Of scrimmage. It's only a matter
Of developing plays around this trick
to make a big change in the game,
he said, but it will require time and
the change next season may not be
marked.
AS for the rule of the professional
game which permits pass from any
point behind the line, in Blaik's
opinion it makes for little difference
from the varsity sport.
Dartmouth will have a better team
next Fall than last, the coach prom
ished, but with an unusually trying
schedule it may not score a greater
number of victories. The schedule
includes games with Brown, Columbia,
Cornell, Yale, Harvard and Princeton.

"In addition to this, we lost six
regulars from the eleven and the
material to replace these boys
simply isn't around.
"The problem, very briefly, is to
round out the backfield, dig up a
tackle, two guards and a center.
The regulars who will be avail
able are Capt. Kim Whitehead
and Jerry Roscoe, backs: Larry
Kelley and Bob Train, ends; Henry
Wright, tackle.
"Oh, well; maybe we'll score an.
other victory over Princeton again.

Ruth Makes EN- Wrong.

DERHAPS the American League
clique thought him through" as
player. Maybe it figured him
too expensive to carry along as mere
attraction. He had been in the big
money so long that the frugal Ameri-
can Leaguers might have felt he
would not give his all in return for a
salary they considered commensurate
with his diminished ability as an all
around player. If the American
Leaguers entertained these ideas, Ruth
has confounded them this Spring.
He has been no marvel afield for
the Braves in the exhibition series, but
he has managed to play pretty fair
first base for them since Baxter Jor-
dan decided he did not care to handle
the post at the initial station for the
pay offered. And his batting has not
declined. The Babe, with his won-
drous wallop, has astounded the ma
tives in all the tank towns and the
big ones as well that have been Wis
tied by the Braves. He has hit pro-
digious homers, busts as remarkable
as those he made in his heydey with
the Yankees.
He has drawn to the gate
wild-eyed fans in such numbers
that for the first time in years
the Braves are going back to
Boston with their books show
ing a profit-and q good, fat
one-for their training period.
He took a "cut" in going with the
Braves. They are paying him good
salary on paper, but much of it this
year is being paid in promises. Yet
none other than Bill McKechnie, who
might be expected to resent having
his managerial toes stepped on by the
advising Babe, insists that Ruth is

Of utter indifference on the part of
the circuit he once had saved that
base balls most glamorous character

The facts of the affair never may

opinion is that the American League

the Babe shift his affections-and his
big bat-to the National League.
How the Braves of Boston got hold
of the man who still is the biggest

Questionable as Manager.

Questionable as Manager.
ID UTH, of course, will succeed Nc
n Kechnie as manager next year
He had that understanding
with the club before he signed. This
might seem rough on McKechnie, who
was handed sow's ear and made
silk purse Of it. He brought about
that much change in the Braves. But
Bill will be cared for. He will be
promoted to the general management
Of the Boston club, a job similar to
that held by Billy Evans with the In
dians and Eddie Collins of the Red
Sox. They regard Bill highly in the
Hub.
But fandom there holds Ruth in
greater esteem. He is king. When
he went to Boston in the Winter to
sign they turned out to parade the
streets in his honor. With the tenn
perature just 6 above, too. 1t takes
king to get the crowd out in that
kind of cold.
As q manager, though, Ruth
would be a big question. He
never has been able to discipline
himself. Could he rule others?
Perhaps the Babe is fortunate in
not having the Boston club on his
shoulders this year. McKechnie right
now is wrestling with a sweet prob
lem. Six of his players still are I'M
signed. Jordan wants q heavy raise
McKechnie says his club must have
him and Judge Fuchs, the president,
insists Jordan must accept what was
offered or get out. Flint Rhem and
Leo Mangum, pitchers, declare they
won't sign unless their salaries are
boosted. Fuchs says there will be no
boost. Rup Thompson, Hal Lee and
Joe Mowry, half the outfield squad,
have spurned all salary offers No
more will be made according to Fuchs.
This makes even the suave Nc
Kechnie worry. Wonder how the tenn
pestuous Ruth would handle such q
situation?

FORENOON DRILLS
CALLED BY HARRIS
Will Be Held Throughout
Home Stay-HurIers Not
to Be Pampered.
BY JOHN b. KELLER.

w YORK and plenty of 1t is
M scheduled for Bucky Har-
v v ris' eather-whipped ball
club right down to its de-
parture on April % for the big swing
around the American League. Bent
on having the Nationals fit for the
grueling 22-game grind on foreign
fields after the brief opening cham
pionship season stand here, the man
ager has ordered daily forenoon drills
for them during the home stay.
These workouts will be held regard
less Of weather conditions, with the
players getting their exercise under
the stands when the field in Griffith
Stadium is not fit for use.
With these morning practices back
ed by the exhibition and title season
tilts to be put on whenever possible,
Harris is confident his club will be as
well conditioned as any other in the
circuit when the long tour gets under
way.
In fact, should the Nationals man
age to play at least four Of the six
training tussles they will be in good
order for the season inaugural at
Griffith Stadium a week from today,
the manager believes.
He sees no serious setback TO his
club as a result of its enforced idleness
since leaving training camp.

No Alibis for Pitchers.


TN THIS respect, Clark Griffith, big
boss of the club, concurs with
the pilot. The Washington pitch
erS have no alibis," the preXy insisted
today. "They were nicely conditioned
at Biloxi. If they have their stuff
they'll be all right. They certainly
are strong enought to throw Now it
is up to them to throw with some
thing on the ball.
II consider Whitehill, Russell, Burke
and Coppola in good shape. They can
pitch for me. The others are not so
far behind them. I know of no real
reason to fear we will not be ready
for the start of the season where the
pitching is concerned"
Griffith intimated that Harris might
try using two pitchers to the game
in the early going, but the manager
would not admit he is considering
such plan. The prexy said the size
able staff at hand would permit the
free employment of hurlers and that
the club might get along better In
pursuing such policy.
Serious Grind for HurIers.
1TARRIS opines that any one of
several in the curving corps
should be capable of going a
route, however, despite none has been
in more than Is innings in the ex-
hibition series.
Il don't believe in pampering pitch
ers.' the manager said Those that
know how to pitch-and I'd say most
of our pitchers do know-understand
how to conserve their strength during
O game When I send a pitcher out
to start a game, I expect him to go
through with it.
'I certainly shall expect that of the
pitchers I pick for the early games.
] want any pitcher I select to enter
the game with that understanding and
not feeling that he has to go only
five or six innings before turning over
the job to another" Harris empha-
sized. 1T may be that some of the
pitchers will weaken after a short
term Any pitcher may feel great at
the outset and then suddenly and
mysteriously blow up. 1t happens to
the best of them.
But don't propose to spare the
Washington pitchers once the season
starts. 1t will be all business then,
and they'll have to buckle down to
the grind. Mine will be a pitching
staff with no namby- -pambys," Bucky
declared.
