Orlando Seeks
Giants For
Next Year
BY FRANK BUCK O'NE1LL

ORLANDO. Fla, March 25
The Washington Baseball Club will
not be invited to return to Orlando
in 1888 for spring training, it is
expected.
Representatives Of the city
have offered the New York Giants
a cash guarantee of close to
$1,000 per annum to make
Orlando their headquarters for a
period of years. This is more
than double the amount paid to
the washington club. The Wash
ington club is signed to a one-year
agreement only.
Orlando feels that with the
Giants training here, the New
York area would be flooded with
favorable publicity. This, it is
contended, would bring a host Of
winter visitors to this city.
Business Volume Low
Orlando men are reported dis
satisfied with the volume of busi,
ness attracted here by the Wash
ington club. 1t is said that a
more or less accurate check
showed results not at all flatter-
ing to the Griffs.
No one in authority here would
discuss the report. John Camel
veteran baseball man, and liaiSon
man for the city with the Wash
ington club, was out Of town on
baseball business.
Orlando is assembling a team
to play in the Florida State
League, and Camel doubtless was
busy aiding in the organization OF
a club.
President Clark Griffith had not
been informed on the matter, and
declined to comment until in pos
session of facts.
1t was learned that Orlando
business men conferred with Terry
when the Giants visited Orlando
recently to play an exhibition
game with the Griffs.
Makes Impression
A detachment of news writer's
10 strong, accompanied the New
York club, and this show of adver'
tising power made deep impres'
sion upon local business men.
Terry said in the conference
that he would not return to Cuba
for spring training under any con
SlderatiOn. He said that the
Giants received $4,000 for train
ing there three weeks or there.

games played against the Cuban

dinals.
Terry has not committed him
self to training in Orlando next
spring, but if no better offer is
received by the Giants, it is more
than likely, the writer's infor
mants said. that he will sign g
contract. In such event. the
Griffs would be compelled tt
seek another training site.
The Griffs will take in com
paritively easy today, playing the
Baltimore Orioles at Winter Gar
den after five consecutive victor
les over major league competi
ton. Bucky Harris will pitch Ker

G.P.0. Nine
|n0pener
BY SID KATZNELL

After wisely selecting its Of
f1cers. the Departmental, the
oldest weekday league in the city,
is ready to begin operations for
the thirty-seventh season on the
diamond. Activities start May 3
on the East Ellipse, where PWA
bats against G. P. o.
Organized in 1900 by group
of Government workers, the De
partmental for years has been one
of the outstanding circuits in
washington, and this year will be
no exception.
With the addition of three new
teams that have stamped them
selves in other leagues. the De-
partmental is looking forward to
q red hot pennant race. The
newcomers are the Greenbelts,
General Accounting Office and
Union Printers.
Greenbelts Strong
The Printers participated in the
league for a good many years but
the past two seasons they dis
played their wares in the Indus
trial loop.
Headed by Jack Smith, former
professional ballplayer, the Green
belts were one of the foremost
mines cavorting on the sandlots
last campaign.
For the eighth consecutive year,
Vic Gauzza, more familiarly
known as the Judge Lands of
the local Sandlots, has been chosen
president. Raymond Happier, a
figure in WaShington's athletic
circles for a number of years, is
vice president, and Edward j. Con-
over will be secretary-treaSurer of
the league for the fifteenth season.
Shoemaker to Umpire
Umpiring duties have been as
signed to "Shooey" Shoemaker,
with Dick Williams and Jimmy
Green as his alternates. All three
are noted authorities on base
ball, having played the game
with exceptional skill in their
youth.
The league will have a split
schedule, first and second halves.
The winner Of the first half
meets the victor of the second
half in a three-game series for
the championship at the conclus-
ion of the season. A silver
trophy will be awarded to both
the champion, the first half
winner and the second half
champ by the Atlas Sports Shop.
Happier, vice president of the
league, will give the most valu-
able player high grade pair of

ORLANDO, Fla, March 25.
The fifth consecutive victory of
the Washington Griffs in the
the Grapefruit league is an accom-
plished fact. They took advan-
tage of the openings presented by
the faulty fielding of the st. Louis
Cardinals to pack five runs into
nine eventful innings. Having done
that, they fought off thrilling,
breath taking rally by the Cards
in the ninth inning.
Joe Medwick hit home run over
the left fringe of trees on City Is
land park in Daytona Beach,
smashing the ball into head wind,
and conquering distance with the
greatest of ease. Two men were
on bases at the time, and St. Louis
scored it's three runs right then
and there.
Those three runs might have
been enough to win if the Cards
had played tight defensive ball.
-Four of the Washington runs were
unearned, and the fifth was some
what streaked with luck. An error
figured in it, as errors figured in
the others.
The brilliant play of Cecil Travis
stood out throughout the day. The
drawlin' Georgian made a couple
of stops that could not be sur
passed by any player in baseball.
Without his fine play the Griffs
might have been defeated.
CaScarella pitched brilliantly, al
lowing three hits, and De Shong
was just as brilliant until he fal-
tered in the ninth inning.
Notes: Joe Kuhel made a hit
yesterday that made him smile
from ear to ear. He shortened up
on his grip and slapped a ball into
left field, just out of Durocher's
reach. 1t was the style of hitting
Kuhel has practiced at Orlando
since the start of training, but it
was the first time he really tried
it in a game.
Mickey Owen permits no slum-
bering on the field. He whipped
the ball around in the first in
ming when the Griffs had the bases
loaded, keeping both fielders and
runners on their toes. Stepping
off bases was a perilous adventure
with that young man whipping
the leather around.
Travis laShed a double into deep
left, scoring Kuhel and putting
Stone on third. But Myer ended
the frame with a towering blast
to Moore.
Senor Miguel Gonzales visited
your agent before the game, cut
ting up old touches when Mike
was with the Giants.
Hogan: How hee ees catch
asked Mike in his best English.
"Mucha bueno," replied your
agent in equally fluent Spanish.
Isl, theeSe must be dee true, u
replied Mike. Because. for four
years he ees catch for McGraw."
Joe Cascarella threw a perfect
change of pace to Mickey Owen
in the second inning, and the
Card receiver hoisted a high foul
to Frank Hogan. This sort OF
pitching has marked the exhibi
ton games. and there's big guy
called Hogan directing the pitch
ers.
Fred Sington Is out to set a
record for walking. He drew
three passes consecutively against
the Detroit Tigers, and walked his
