BASEBALL PRACTICE
TO BEGIN WITH A BANG
•MONDAY, RAIN OR SHINE
Thirty Candidates Out, Many
Letter .Men and Former
Frosh Available
STRONG TEAM PREDICTED
Eight to Contest for Pitcher's Job,
Four for Catcher, Ten Infield—
Stars for Outfield
Official practice for the Varsity
baseball nine will commence Mon
day, according to the announcement
made by Coach “Shy” Huntington,
and from the present outlook there
will be a banner turnout. A number
of aspirants have been going out
for the past two weeks and about 30
men of experience either on the Var
sity or the frosh teams of former
iears, have signified their intentions
f joining the squad as soon as
practice begins in earnest.
“Monday, rain or shine,” was
the verdist of “Shy” when asked
as to the date when the squad would
be called out, “and I expect to see
a big turnout. If it rains, we will
get busy witli some inside workouts.”
Team Looks Strongest in Years
According to the available material
which is on the campus this season,
the Varsity nine will be one of the
strongest turned out in several years.
Although a definite schedule of
games is not yet available, tentative
dates call for games with Washing
ton State, University of Washington,
O. A. C., Stanford, Whitman, Idaho,
Willamette, Multnomah club and pro
bably a few others to be arranged as
the season advances. The nine will
probably take a northern trip this year
which will include games as far
north ns Moscow and Pullman.
Letter men will be available for
practically every position except the
catcher’s Job, ulthough this does not
signify that they will not be given
u battle for their place on the nine
tills season. In addition to the mem
bers of last year’s team which will
be out, there are also a number of
letter men who played on the Var
sity squad in pre-war days and a
number who made excellent showings
on the frosh teams of former seasons.
Battery Jobs Sought by Many
Four candidates will probably be
out for the catcher’s position, as far
us is now known. These include
Vince Jacobberger, who caugiit for
the frosh last year, "Bart" Laughlin,
who handled the receiving job for
the frosh nine In 1917, Bob Earl who
has worked on the Varsity, and
"Spike” Leslie, who has been playing
army baseball for the past two sea
sons.
At present the prospects tor a
plentiful supply of pitchors appears
to he good although It will he sev
eral weeks before a line on the most
likely looking material for this Job
can be selected. Knudson and Jacob
son were both members of th3 frosh
nine in 1917 and made good in the
box, Art Berg was a member of the
Varsity squad in 1918, Walt Kennon
worked with the Varsity squad in
1917 and Kddie Durift) showed up to
advantage on last year’s team. Dick
Shimm and Mare Latham both went
good for the frosh team lust season
and 1 ranees Jacobberger is also men
tioned as a possibility. It is practi
cally certain that all of these men
will be out for the pitchers’ stall’ and
there will no doubt be more who will
show up later.
Big Fight for Infield
The prospects for a strong infield
are equally as good, with llerm Lind,
captain of this year's squad out for
first, along with George Black and
Roy Vcatch of last year's frosh nine.
Vince Jacobberger, Rodney Smith,
“Sheet" Manerud, Bill Collins, Carl
Liehe. "IMnty" Moore. Jay Fox, John
ny Houston and Johnny Finneran, are
other infield candidates who are ex
pected to show up strong. Manerud,
Collins and Liehe worked on the frosh
nine of lust year. Houston is a let
ter man from last year's nine, while
Jay Fox was a member of the Var
sity in pre-war days. Johnny Fin
nerun is not in school at present, but
is expected to return for the spring
term.
Letter Men for Outfield
The outfield Is going to be strong
this year with three letter men trying
out for the job in addition to the
other candidates who will probably
turn out for it. These are "Bill”
Steers, who made his letter in 1918,
John Gamble, who played with the
Varsity nine last year, and "Bill'
Reinhart who made his letter at
short last year, but who is going out
for a job in the outer garden this
eeason.
Lind, Knudson, Black, Manerud,
Vince Jacobberger and Bill Steers
can all be depended on ,for heavy
sluggers, and batting averages on
the Varsity will be well up if these
men can keep their record of former
years.
