Fast Ball Regoined, Mosterson
Enters Race for Nat Berth
As He Overcomes Indians

Masterson got an opportunity
early in the 1899 campaign and
responded with an impressive vic
tory over Detroit. Atop the spring
training rave notices by President
Clark Griffith, Harris and newspa-
permen there came more. Hank
Greenberg of the Tigers contributed
1t is difficult for a 19-year-old to
keep his feet fiat on the ground un-
der these circumstances. Bob Fell
ers easy acceptance of his fame
probably is more remarkable than
his great arm. Masterson felt elat-
ed, went a trifle prima donna, and
then dropped from the clouds
when, in subsequent tests, he was
batted hard.
Thus he lost confidence and, with
it, he lost prestige in Harris mind.
But, over the winter, Walter must
have done some hard thinking and
screwed up His determination be-
cause he seems to be resembling the
young fellow who looked so good last
spring.
Harris Drives Regulars.
While Chase, Haynes and Master
son were holding the Indians to
seven hits, the Mats hoped on
Rockies Don Pulford and Mike Nay
mick, and Southpaw Al Milnar, for
II well-bunched blows.
They went out smarting under
criticism for the 22-to-5 beating
handed them by the Kansas City
Blues the day before. Harris or
dered the regulars to the field two
and one-half hours before game time
and put them through an hour and
a half of batting practice. Bucky
used up six pitchers during the ses-
sion and for the first time this
campaign the rockies and non-regu-
lars were not permitted batting
turns. They were used to chase
drives.
Cecil Travis home run in the
second inning gave Washington a
10 lead. This was increased to
80 in the fourth and in the sixth
and seventh innings two runs were
scored in each. Both Cleveland runs
we're scored in the sixth, while
Haynes was pitching.

AUGUSTA, Ga, March 21.-Two
decisive victories and two close
decisions sent a pair of Southern
golfers and two Eastern representa-

Augusta women's invitation tourna-

other.

ORLANDO, Fla, March 21.-
Young Walter Masterson, considered
year ago the brightest pitching
prospect on the Washington Ball
Clubs pay roll but virtually elimi-
mated as major Lacquer when camp
was opened this year, has thrown
his cap into the ring again.
Five innings doesn't make a sea-
son, of course, and that's all Mas
terson has pitched this year. But
the 20-year -old right-hander from
Philadelphia, who was persona non
grata in February, is causing plenty
of worry among the second flight
hurlers in camp as they battle for
one of the 10 slab jobs.
AS the Mats rested from Grape
fruit League competition today and
contemplated their 7-to-2 victory
over the Indians, they considered
MaSterson in fresh light. Walter
divided the pitching with Ken Chase
and Joe Haynes yesterday and
looked better than either. This was
atop fair two-inning performance
last Saturday against the Giants.
Rushed Along Too Fast.
1t is entirely possible that Master
son was rushed too fast. After a
spectacular series of successes early
in 1889, the boy, fresh from semi-pro
ranks in Pennsylvania, went bad
He lost his confidence and even
developed complex. He suspected
that his style of pitching invited
line drives through the box. He
became gun shy.
When he reported here on Feb
ruary Is he looked rundown and
thin. His eyes bothered him over
the winter and he wore dark glasses.
He still does. At the outset Manager
Bucky Harris dismissed Walter as
prospect.
But now he isn't being dismissed.
About dozen rockies are leaving
the Mats camp in the next few
days, bound for farm clubs, but
Masterson isn't one of them. Not
off what he showed yesterday.
Wasn't Ready for Majors.
Even his mates, working with him
every day, were surprised. Dropping
his air Of timidity, Walter cut loose
with the same fast ball which
evoked raves last year and sharp
breaking curve which baf11ed the
Indians. In the three innings he
worked he gave two hits, one ex-
tremely scratchy and permitted no
runner beyond first base.
Masterson probably should have
been farmed out last year. He wasn't
ready for the majors. Harris,
though, rates him as too good a
prospect to be risked by inept
handling in the bushes. He de-
cided to keep Walter and try to
teach him at Washington.
A stronger ball club would have
sent Masterson to class A or B
club for a year and probably farmed
him to a double-A team for an
other season. But the Mats, woe
fully weak in the pitching depart
ment, needed all the hurting they
could get. This was another rea-
son for his retention.

NO WAR BENEFIT FOR y. s.
FARMER, SAYS SEC. WALLACE


American agriculture, on the whole,
is not profiting from the Eufopean
war, according to STATEMENT from
Secretary of Agriculture Wallace to
F. E. Blhner, extension director. State
College Of Washington.
nThe war Los stimulated exports
of industrial products, and although
this gives support to the domestic
demand for farm products. it has
shut off large part of our expo-t
market for farm products with the
result that agriculture on the whole
is not profiting from the war;" the
secretary stated.
He listed three fundamental con.
tributing factors in the situation,
namely, that France and Great Brit
ain are using their reserve in this
country to buy airplanes and other
ornaments which they cannot get
elsewhere, that the Allied blockade
has effectively shut off exports to
German controlled territory and that
our trade with neutral European coun-
tries has been badly upset BY the
war. f 81
Y The imports of Great Britain and
France are under cooperative gov
eminent contlol This has stopped
competitive bidding On world supplies
and made possible the formation Of
many alliances with countries trying
to increase their export sales. The
Allies are buying wherever they can
obtain commodities in exchange for
their own goods or buy with ste ling
or on credit. They have also tried to
buy up farm products which might
otherwise go to Germany,
Cotton is the only farm product
with an increased export market Ia
the Allied belligerent and neutral
European countries. Wheat, pork
fruit and tobacco exports have declin-
sd and regardless Of increased dom.
este buying, wer hasn't benefitec
agriculture on tho whole.
