KELLEY|SN NAMED
TO TAME TIGERS
Harris Thinks Ex-Mackman
Is Ready-Rick FerreII
Hits in Pinches.

Chunky, ball-headed Harry Kelley,
who was bought by Washington
week ago from the Philadelphia Ath-
letics. was to make his debut as a
starting pitcher today against the
Detroit Tigers in one of the last two
games of the Mats current home stand.
Kelley, the second veteran knuckle-
baller to be acquired by the Mats this
year, was off to bad start with the
AS. Worried over the critical ILL
ness of his 4-year-old son, Harry's
mind was not on baseball and he
was slow in rounding into shape He
has been working out religiously since
coming to the Mats and Manager
Bucky Harris had hunch he could
tame the Tigers.
Jimmy De Shong probably will face
Detroit tomorrow in the final home
game. Tomorrow night the Griffs
will entrain for Boston and then swing
around the West before returning to
the Capital on May %.
The next time the Mats play the
Browns our Master Buddy Lewis may
take a rocking chair with him to
third base and make himself COM
Portable. In the three games with
the Brownies this week Lewis had
one chance. He threw out q runner
on ground ball.
Rick Ferrell has driven across six
runs in the last two games Now
he's second only to Zeke Bonura in
the r. b. /. column.
Newsom maintains he is due for a
big year and predicts that the bat
terry of Newsom and Heath will be-
come famous. I'll take johnson and
Ainsmith or Grove and Cochrane or
Gomez and Dickey, thank va.

MARCH OF TROOPS
STILL IMPORTANT
Militia Advised Not to Depend
Too Much on Motor
Transport.

While pointing to the improvement
shown by militia units throughout
the country in the use of motor trans
port for various field activities, in
cluding maneuvers, Maj Gen. Albert
H. Blanding, chief OF the National
Guard Bureau of the War Depart
ment, has stressed to Guard officers
the importance of not depending too
much on riding to the scene of actiU-
ties, and particularly is this so Of the
infantry.
The bureau has already ordered, not
only for the infantry but for other
unmounted organizations, several
marches during each armory drill
season, in both light and heavy packs,
so as to keep the officers and men
in trim for this important duty where
the going is hard for machinery.
Gen. Blanding sounded a warning
to the militiamen that while the land
forces are steadily improving in their
ability to use motor transport for
the purposes Of war, they must stead
lily guard against the idea that they
can ride everywhere. He added that
the infantryman will always need
good legs. He said that there Is no
prospect now, and he sees none for
the future, Of the infantryman riding
in trucks clear up to the front line
Of battle and then jumping out to
fight.
He said that the organizations con-
tinue to gain experience in moving
to field training camps In conveys, and
added that the methods Of conducting
peace-time conveys with greater dis
tances between vehicles, which have
been put into effect in recent motor
movements, greatly decrease the in
reference of the conveys with nom
military traffic. He pointed out that
the Sd Army maneuvers were con-
Quoted in an area which contained
practically no paved roads and only
few improved roads Of any kind, and
that they brought out in marked de-
gree the value of motor transport
when it is correctly used.'
He also stressed the importance Of
development in the Guard Of COM
munication training, pointing out

that a commander cannot night bat

what Is going on. And he cannot
know what Is going on unless the,
information gets back to him surely

communication between Guard units
on maneuvers continues to improve,
but that there is still room to make
it a great deal better. The deficiency
in signal equipment is being made
up as fast as possible, but until the
equipping is complete the units must
make full Use of the signal equipment
which they already have. bending
