14 TTTE MORNING OKEGONIAN, TUESDAY, MARCII 29, 1921 BEAVERS IK INTO TIP TOP SHAPE Final Week of Training Opens at Santa Maria. KALLIO WITHOUT AILMENT Sot Even Twinge of Old Trouble to Bother Pitcher Ross Xot , Ready to Twirl Xine Innings. ! BY U H. GREGORY. B.UiTA MARIA, Cal., March 28 (Special.) The final week of train ins has opened with the Beavers all rounding into tip-top shape. There Isn't a sore arm" in the squad. What few athletes sprung Charley horses from too strenuous work In the first days of camp have forgotten all about them now. A lot of that is due to the care of the ballplayers taken by "Doc" Meikle. their trainer. The Doc watches 'em like a friendly hawk. Several times he has said that such and such a Diayer waa working a little too hard and should have a rest, and Walter McCredie has taken him at his word and laid them off temporarily. The result is that every man in the outfit has hardened his muscles in just the right way and at just the right speed. Rudy Kallio, who had a difficult tirne last season with his back, hasn't had even a twinge of the old trouble. Kallio was bearing down In hitting practice today with a zipping fast ball and a curve that looked better than anything he could throw all last year. He says himself that he feels like an altogether different man. That i.s mighty good news, for when he Is In form Kallio is a fox of a pitcher, who, with any kind of support, is bard to beat. Rom Not Yet In Shape. Sam Ross is the only one of the vet eran flingers not In shape now to go either a full nine-inning game or nearly that. But Walt is not worrying about that, for Sam is always a slow bird to cut loose in spring training. After the season is a couple of weeks old his sopthpaw wing will have ay its old cunning. Tlie big worry In this camp at pres ent is the continued failure of Detroit to come through with the need.ed shortstop. Walt received a telegram todiiy from Detroit offering him Allan Conicwrluht. a pitcher, but he tele graphed right back that he doesn't want him, but does want his promised Infiolder. He has plenty of good pitchers now and, with the two more coming from the Cubs, will have a nifty corps. Conkwright led the pitchers of the Central league last season, but what Portland needs and must have is a shortstop who not only can field, but can smack the pcllett. Walt has sent in his final S. O. S. to Detroit for such a man. If he can only get him we wil start the season in a reasonably tranquil frame of mind and will not Insist for the present on the other three ballplayers owed him by the Tigers. Detroit Honor Bonnd. Detroit Is in honor bound to send this shortstop, but Judging from the game of dillydally sho has been play ing, the outlook isn't very favorable. The needed man would) have to leave the Tiger camp in Texas right away to reach the coast in time for the opining game next Tuesday. The three men coming from the Chicago Cubs, including two pitchers ana a third baseman, haven't arrived yet, but Walt looks for them about Wednesday. Neither has Marty Krug. But his final trump card was over trumped today, when Secretary Far rel, on the national board, overruled fcis application for unconditional re lease from Portland. With all his terms met and every technicality over ruled that he raised, Krug will have to be set In his ways indeed if he continues to hold out. When he Bhows up Walt will name him captain of the team. Practice sessions today were re duced from four hours to three hours, divided into a one-hour practice in the morning and two hours in the aft ernoon, as Walt believes too much work now would be bad for his play ers. There was no yannigan game today, either. Beginning Wednesday, however, the Beavers will hook up with the Colored Giants for another five-gam series that will wind up training camp. ALDRIDGE TO JOLV AXGKLS; Xews From Star Pitcher Puts En thusiasm in Club. PASADENA, Cal., March 28. (Spe cial.) Wade Killefer's Los Angeles club will resume work on Paddock field tomorrow, with every man happy at receiving the news of Vic Ald ridge's coming. Killefer received a telegram from his star right-hander tonight that he had started for Pasa dena and would arrive Thursday. Aldridge added that he Is in fair shape as a result of working at his Indiana home. Business reasons have kept him from starting sooner. It remains to be seen whether or not Killefer will go through with his threat of fining Alridge his first month's pay as a result of his tardiness. Vic pitched in 39 games last year, winning 18 and losing 15. Harry Jackson, local semi-professional right-handed pitcher was signed by the Angels today. A stiff workout, followed by a nine, inning regular-yannigan game, made up today's workout. GLEICH IS GIVEX TO DALLAS Essick Tnable to Find Place for Player on Tiger Team. LOS ANGELES, March 28. (Spe cial.) Frank Glolch, outfielder, ob tained from the New York Yankees in the Johnny Mitchell deal, was tonight turned over to the Dallas, Tex., league club by Manager Essick of Vernon. Gleich is a lefthand hitter and with Chadbourne and Hughle High on the jcb, Essick could not find a place for him. The regular Tiger outfield will be composed of Chadbourne, High and Tommy Long, with Schneider and Al cock utilities. The Tacoma Pacific International league club has asked Skipper Essick for a pair of his youngsters. Fred Gunther. infielder, and Eddie Kenna, catcher, may land there. ILEX WORTHY LIKES POMOXA XUtinlers Likely to Return for Their Training xt Tear. POMONA Cal., March 28. (Spe cial.) "If my team doesn't make a good showing it will not be the fault of Pomona." Bill Kenworthy, new manager of the Seattle club, made this statement tonight when he said- that the Rai- GEORGE MAISEL IN CHICAGO Former Portland Outfielder Pretty McCredie Scouts Futilely BY L. H. GREGORY. fNAXTA MARIA, Cat, March 28. (Special.) George Maisel, .the former Portland outfielder, was pretty nearly the whole show for the Chicago Cubs In a game between the Cubs and Vernon at Los Angeles that the WTlter took in last week with Walt McCredie, who had gone , down there from his own training camp to try to dig a few experienced bands out of the Cub roster. Maisel never showed better in his life than in that game. He was all over his section of the outfield. Of his four fielding chances, two were shoe-string catches just off .the ground on which he rolled over and over, but came up with the ball. They were of the type that always brings grandstand and bleachers to their feet with a yell, but George wasn't "grand-standing" when he made them. In both cases he simply had to dive for the ball and take a chance, or lose the play altogether. He dived twice and made a remarkable catch each time. The second of these catches came with two out and saved the -uua a couple of runs. They needed those two runs pretty badly, too, for they only defeated Vernon, 7 to 5. Maisel is in left field for the Cubs and is easily one of their regular outfielders. The chances are that he will be switched to center, his old position with Portland last year, for the man who was playing that post for the Cubs looked mighty ick out there. George has been hitting hard as well as fielding well, and his speed is enabling him to beat out his usual number of "dinky" hits. A lot of Maisel's hits are of the dinky variety, though he pounds the ball on the nose, too. He gets these dinky hits because he is so fast a runner that he beats out many a dribbler that would be an out with a slower man. If he had nothing else, Maisel's speed would cinch him a place with the Cubs, for they looked' woefully lacking in that quality. They seemed slow and lumbering. The Cubs had been in training three weeks, but their lack of speed was pitiful. Chi cago baseball writers with the team all look glum when asked about their Cubs, and privately they all say that Johnny Evers has mighty tough sled ding ahead unless he can get some new and speedy men. Never, It seems, were young, fast ballplayers more scarce than they are now The Cubs haven't got them. Those young fellows they have who show any promise they want to keep, Just as Detroit and all the other big league clubs are hanging on to young sters. They won't let a good man get away from them. Walt McCredie had two men due him in outright exchange for George Maisel, in lieu of which he was to receive under the terms of the Maisel sale agreement a b'g fat price in cash. At the time the sale was made he emphatically told the Cubs that what he wanted was players, not money, and eaid he would stick up his cash price to what he considered pretty close to an exorbitant price in order to make it easier for the Cubs to give him the players. Yet the other day when he went to see Veeck at Pasadena, the Cub president wanted to hand him a check for Maisel and cancel the player ar rangement. Walt then said Veeck could let him have players and still retain title to them, and after that Veeck came down and talked turkey again. He even promised to let Walt have another player or bo, in addition to the three arranged for on the spot. But the incident shows how the major eague clubs are hanging to their young talent, and how hard it is for a class AA manager nowadays to go out and get good men to fill up his team. If he doesn't want to load up with a lot of slipping veterans he almost is forced to get kids and de velop them for himself. The Cubs have a young fellow on first named Grimes that Walt had been angling for before the Cubs got him. Grimes didn't look as fast, or on all around playing as good as Jimmy Poole. Grimes, however, hasn't got the bag nailed down for himself, for the Cubs also are trying another young hand, Tommy Wheelan, a former navy aviator, at the first cor ner. Charley Hollocher. of course, looks like $1,000,000 at short. He plays just as he used to play with Portland. He still Is death on seemingly Impossi ble chances both to right and left and he has the same great wing that Port land fans used to see in action. Hol locher is rated one of the three greatest shortstops in baseball today. Speed Martin and Abe Bailey, both of whom had been mentioned as pos nlers would likely return here next spring. Kenworthy plans taking the bovs to Los Angeles Thursday, where they nave permission to worn out at the Vernon park. He wants them to get used to the grass infield, which the ball yard here does not afford. Bill Stumpf may get the call over Elliott at shortstop opening day. Stumpf is in one of his brilliant streaks and right now is displaying the brand of ball which helped carry the Seattle club into second place last season. SEMI-PRO LEAGTES LIKELY Members of Interstate Baseball Association Called to Meet. Wll'iam R. Smyth, president of the Interstate Baseball association, has issued a call for all members of the organization and team managers in terested in the formation of semi-pro baseball leagues to be present at a meeting of the association to be held tonight at the United States marine corps recruhlng office, Third and Alder streets. At the last meeting the by-laws committee, which was appointed to draw up rules and regulations for the governing of the association, made a partial report. The reading of tire by-laws and constitution and their adopt1.. n will be the principal busi ness at the meeting tonight. Owing to the small quarters In which the meeting will be held to night the gathering will be open to team managers only. President Smyth is on the lookout for permanent quar ters for the association. LYXCH IS VICTOR BY SHADE Young Pinchot Defeated In Ten- Round Bout In Pittsburg. PITTSBURG, March 28. Joe Lynch, bantamweight champion boxer of the world, won by a shade from Young Pinchot of Charlerol, Fa., in 10 rounds tonight, according to a majority of aport writers at the ringside. The only knockdown came in the seventh, when Lynch sent Pinchot to the canvas for a count of nine. The bout was slow and In the early rounds Pinch-.it was the aggressor, landing often with his left. Lyncn took six rounds, Pinchot three fcnd one was even. MAKES GOOD CUBS' LINE-UP Nearly Whole Show in Training. in South for Players. sibly coming to Portland on the Maisel deal, worked in the box against Vernon. Martin showed much the better stuff. He worked five innings and used everything fast one, slow one, good hook and excellent control. Vernon could do nothing with him. Then came a left-handed youth named Jones, who couldn't get 'em over the plate and off whom Vernon made five runs and nearly tied the score. So in the last inning Johnny Evers sent Abe Bailey to the box. Bailey didn't use much but a fast ball and he didn't use that with much judg ment, though he got away with it. With two men on and two out, and Red Smith, the Vernon third Backer, at bat in the last inning. Bailey fed him nothing but fast ones in the groove. Red takes a ball like that and hits it 1500 miles a second down the third baseline. If there is anything Red Smith loves it is a fast ball in the groove. Yet with two strikes on him, Bailey threw him six fast ones in succes si on. Bailey had good speed and Smith was hitting Just a trifle late. He fouled off five in a row, but got hold of the sixth. He 'certainly did. It went on the line so fast down by Deal, who was playing near the bag, that he threw up his hands to protect his face. The ball crashed into his glove and stuck there. That's all that saved the game for the Cubs. Portland has little chance of get ting either Martin or Bailey, for both are accounted Cub regulars. Evers has nobody else to help Alexander, Jim Vaughn an Lefty Tyler Vernon looked fair in the game with the Cubs, but despite his big deal whereby he got seven players from the New York Yanks (for one Johnny Mitchell) Bill Essick hardly has as good a layout this year as last. He is decidedly weak on short, where young Gorman is trying to fill Mitchell's shoes. Gorman, who played with Yakima last season, is fast but lacks experience. Hazen Paton, the Portland youngster, looks far better right now than Gorman does. Undoubtedly this hole at short is one reason Bill Essick is so set on getting Wes Kingdon. He has twice declined to waive on Kingdon, whom Walt would like to send to Bill Speas for further seasoning with Regina In the Western Canada league. Essick continues to hold up the deal. The speed of the Vernon club will not be helped any by having the aged Ham Hyatt on first, though the veteran sure can bust 'em. Carl Sawyer at second is not the man that Fisher was last year not by a lot. Sawyer is a comedian and will be quite a drawing card. But he isn't a fighting player of the Fisher type, and he isn't in Fisher's class, either, as a fielder or batter. Red Smith Is a good third sacker, and High, Chadbourne and Long, with Edington in reserve, are a pretty fair outfield. Truck Hannah behind the bat never had any speed, but has less of it than when he was in the Coast league several years ago. He can still hit, though. But what makes Vernon a tough contender is her pitching staff. She had the best pitchers in the Coast league last year, and looks as well fixed this season with Willie Mitchell, Weiser Dell, Ernie Shore, Shellen back. Art Fromme, McGraw, Slim Love and Smallwood. We didn't see the Los Angeles club in action, except in batting and field ing practice, but it's plain that it will be an aggregation of old timers some of them very old, old timers. When they get warmed up the ma chine will move along without too much creaking of muscles, but it will lack the vitality and snap of a young outfit. It has Griggs, an old timer but a good one, on first; Niehoff, another old timer, on second, and Niehoffs legs are troubling him already; Mc Cauley, not quite so old as the others, on short; Lindamore, from the Texas league, on third. Even he is no kid. If the outfielders were rear ad mirals in the navy every one of 'em would have been put on the retired list for age several seasons ago. There's Sam Crawford, now beginning his second century in baseball; Rube Ellis, in the game almost as long, and Wade Killefer, himself far removed from the spring chicken class. Every one of them can hit, but they are old men, and lack speed. The club as a whole will be an aggregation of ancient foxes, but with very little speed Stanage and Baldwin will do the catching and for pitchers Killefer has Ol' Doc Crandall, Lefty Thomas, from to the coast; Hughes, Ray Keating Seattle; Aldridge, if he comes back and Lyon, most of them old timers. Doc Crandall is about the oldest of the pitching staff, but Doc is the best pitcher of the lot. MMMS BEAT GUARDS SCOTS TAKE SOCCER CONTEST BY SCORE OP 4 TO 2.

At the same time the Standifcr and Canadian Vet teams were battling to a scoreless tic The Macleays started their scoring early in the game, and Leggit and Kayes both drove through the Guards' goal posts when the game had been under way less than ten minutes. Just before the first period ended Leggit scored again, making the count S to 0.

NEW YORK, March 28. S. Howard VoshelL twice holder of the national indoor tennis singles championship, narrowly missed becoming the victim of a reversal in the second round of the titular tourr.ament today. He was being outplayed by J. L.

SLUGGING MILL PROMISED Xiel Zimmerman and Ad Mackie to Go Four Rounds and Card Has Been Completed. BY DICK SHARP. Frankie Murphy and Dave Shade will meet in tomorrow night's ten round main event at the Milwaukie arena. Matchmaker Kendall said yes terday that he had feared from the start that Jimmy Duffy might de velop some eort of ailment and run out on Shade, so he had Murphy training right along at the Olympic gymnasium. He would rather have used Murphy with the winner of a match between Shade and some other boy, but as the other boy was un obtainable Frankie will step Into the breech and try and even up his score with Shade. The recent ten-round melee be tween the California boxer and Mur phy was as good a go as anyone could ask. They began slugging in the first canto and never stopped for a minute throughout the fight. Shade received the decision, but did nof win it by a mile. Murphy is confident he can reverse the decision this time. Shade is rounding into superb shape and the youngster promises to make the Denver scrapper travel seme to keep from being buried un der an avalanche of blows again this time. With the signing of a four-round match yesterday between Niel Zim merman and Ad Mackie the card is complete. Johnny Fiske and Ted Meredith will clash in the eight- round semi-windup, Mickey Dempsey and Baby Blue will box the six- round special event, Neil Zimmerman and Mackie will go four rounds, while Frankie Webb and Carl Martin will mix in the four-round curtain raiser. Every bout on the card is an evenly matched affair on paper and speaks well for another night of banner fights. The boxing cards, both in Portland and Milwaukie, recently have been of exceptionally high cal iber in regards to real mixing. Matchmaker Kendall promises a bat tle in every scrap on tomorrow night's card; Ben Daubcrt. who managed Jim Flynn for several years, as well as other well-known boxers, has taken over Lee Anderson, the tough negro 170-pounder. Lee is a sort of enigma. He stepped out and beat Sam Lang ford and then took eome from Billy Miske. It looks as though if Lee really cared about fighting he could sten in the ring and give about any man in the world at or near his weight the fight of his life. In the gym he shows a world of class, and in the ring, when he wants to, he does the same thing. Daubert has several matches in view for Anderson and is trying to land the next main event in Portland for his fighter. Bert Taylor, the negro light-heavyweight, who has fought several times at the Milwaukie arena, making mediocre showings, is a big card in Tacoma. Ho made his debut there a month or so ago against Clem Zukow ski. Last week he knocked out Jack Hogan, a promising heavyweight, in two rounds. On the next card in Tacoma Taylor is slated to meet Jim Barry. If he geU over Barry Abe Matin, who is lining up his fights in the north, has been promised a go with Tiny Herman. Matin has a flock of battlers in Seattle and has moved his headquar ters from . Portland to the Puget sound metropolis. He recently put over a Portland versus Tacoma card in the latter city, with success. The Portland scrappers won in a walk. He also has Mickey Dempsey lined up for the next Tacoma card, meet ing Mickey Hannon. Frankie Rogers, the rugged Seattle w.if.MD.iviit ha hurled a challenge at George Drew and would like to tangle with the Los Angeles Doy on the next card here. Harry Casey is ,.nih., nnnti 1 u r sputtle boxer who has signified his willingness to meet Drew. Tonight will find a card of six bouts on at Vancouver barracks, with Goat Lavin of San Francisco and Army Welch of Seattle . boxing the ten-round main event. The match has a lot of class and is good enough to head any boxing card in this nee of the woods. Brick Coyle, the Vancouver feather weight, who made such a hit on the last card staged at the barracks, will meet Brick Jacobson in the six-round semi-windup. Jacobson is a soldier mixer and is said to be the best at his weight at the barracks. The other matches are Gus McDon ald versni Soldier Gosllne, 155 pounds, four rounds; Speedball Grady versus Soldier Ginsberg, 145 pounds, four rounds; Battling Lester versus Sol dier Vogel, 133 pounds, four rounds; Soldier Miller versus Soldier Barber, 125 pounds, four rounds. Three judges will make the decisions. Tickets for the goes are on sale at Rich's. Jimmy Brenton, the Los Angeles boxer, who lost to Billy Mascott the other night, has left for Seattle. He has a tentative match in view with Bud Ridley in Spokane. , Harry Schuman is training daily at the London club, getting into shape for anything that may come along in the welterweight line. Schuman is being mentioned as a possible op ponent for Dave Shade or Jimmy Duffy in a future ten-round go here. His hand, which has bothered him a good deal in the past, has healed to such an extent that he can punch a solid surface as hard as he likes and not feel a bit the worse for it. One of his knuckles is a size larger than the others on his hand, but outside of that his mitt is good. Eddie Marino is dickering for sev eral out-of-town fights for Schuman. DOG SHOW INTEREST SHOWS Prominent Fanciers Preparing; to Enter at Seattle, May 5, 6, 7. SEATTLE, Wash.. March 28. (Spe cial.) Out-of-town owners of thor oughbred dogs continue their interest in the first annual spring show to be given by the Puget Sound Kennel club. May S, 6 and 7. ' Mrs. Frank Knox Brown of Tacoma wrote that she is back in the game again after an absence in California of several years. Mrs. Brown will show a string of old English sheep dogs, headed by that grand old cham pion. Lord Chester. George Kincaid, iinDiD owner of the Coxcomb kennels of As toria. Or., will exhibit a number of Airedale terriers and wire-haired fox terriers. A rare breed, wire-haired pointing Griffons, will be shown by a number of coast fanciers, prominent among them being H. L. Malcom of Tacoma and Dr. G. B. Whitney of Wapato. snxrxG CAMP DESIRES BOUT $800,000 Guaranteed for Demp- sey-Carpentier Prizefight. NEW YORK, March 28 Two new offers of sites for the Dempsey-Car- pentier heavyweight championship were made to Promoter Kickara to da. One came from a Nevada silver mining camp and guaranteed the pro moter 8800,000 if he would stage the contest there July 4. The other was presented by repre sentatives of a London syndicate and included a 8500,000 offer if the bout could be held during Derby week. Rickard said that a final decision might be expected this week. From authoritative sources it was learned, however, that Rickard had no intention of holding the match in any isolated section if a site near the metropolis is available. The expense attendant on such a boxing, bout is so great that only a large ceater or pop ulation to draw from would warrant erection of an arena large enough to seat the spectators necessary to pay for the purse involved. 4 CUE MATCHES RUN OFF PAUL ST. GERMAIN' AXB ALEX J1ERK IX CLOSEST GAME. 62d Inning Finds Players Tied With 15 Points Each; Three Contests on Tonight.

SHINES IN BIG MEET Binney's Time - in 50-Yard Race New College Record. 12 SCHOOLS PARTICIPATE Individual Championships of Inter College Association End Season of Startling Performances. BY NORMAN ROSS, World's Champion Swimmer. Yale university carried away three of the five events in the Individual championships of the Eastern Inter collegiate association, which marked the end of a great season full of star tling performances. The growth of eastern conference swimming has been phenomenal. A few years ago swimming activities were limited to dual meets between a few colleges. This year there were 12 schools engaged in the battle for supremacy. The team championship is decided on a point basis figured from dual meets each with the others. The sea son culminates in an individual cham pionship meeting, with all the events of the dual meets included, and the titles of college champion going to the winners. There were 120 water men from 12 schools in the contest held at Columbia university last week. Binney Seta College Record. The outstanding feature was a won derful performance in the 60-yard swim. Ed Binney of Yale won the first heat in 23 4-5 seconds, the fastest time by far ever made in college cir cles, and which has only been beaten a few times by anyone. Duke Kahan amoku is the only person who could consistently equal it. The other swimmers were not in the least daunted with such a mark star ing them in the face. Damon of Am herst, the exponent of the 10-beat crawl, who is being watched by coaches in the hope that his stroke will prove a serviceable development of the style as swam at present with a slower and wider kick, won his heat and semi-final in good time. The final was as pretty a race as was ever swam. The swimmers got away to an even start. Binney and Damon drew away from the field, apparently locked together, swimming stroke for stroke. Binney was evidently weak ened by his record-breaking exertions earlier in the evening and could not shake off the Amherst boy. The re sult could not be determined by the spectators, but was finally awarded by the Judges to Damon. Yale Star Has Good Record. Another upset occurred in the hun dred. Leeming Jelliffe, Yale's star, has been winning hundreds all sea son. The only defeat he experienced was at the hands of Davy Jones, I A. C. boy. now swimming with Brown university. Jelliffe won his heat in :66 1-5, only to be defeated in the last few feet of the final by his team mate, Lorrin Thurston, of Hono lulu. Thurston's time was :56 2-6. Leo Giebel, member of the American Olympic team, and holder of practi cally every Metropolitan champion shin, swimmine- for Rutgers, walked away with the 220, winning in 2:27 1-5. This is several seconds unacr tne col lege record, which had stood until tnia year, but Angus Sinclair, the brilliant navy freshman, has been clocked in 2:25 1-5, which will be accepted as the record. The one-year rule which prohibits the use of freshmen saved the pro gramme from still further upsets. Davy Jones would doubtless have won the hundred, and Sinclair would have made things very interesting in the 220. The presence of several Honolulu boys on the programme and the im nortant part they played shows the class of men developed in the Islands.

In this event she defeated Helen Meany, also a mem ber of the American Olympic team, and Elisabeth Becker of Philadelphia.

Fair or Foul to Bo Declared Only After Sphere Disappears From Sight or Umpire. William H. McCarthy, president of the Pacific Coast league, has sent out the list of instructions for the managers and umpires of the teams in the circuit this season. Judge W. AV. McCredie received the list of 26 rules yesterday, which have been compiled by the league presy. Among these are three new rules which, in cidentally, McCarthy says, will be regidly enforced. Chiefly among the rules are the discoloration of the ball by a pitcher. According to McCarthy no pitcher will be allowed to rub dirt, spit, or remove the gloss from the ball. How ever, should the ball be too glossy, McCarthy says, the pitcher will be permitted to use h's bare hands in rubbing it, removing his glove to do it. Rule No. 2 pertains to fouls. This has been changed somewhat, and as it now reads the ball will be declared fair or foul when it last disappears from the sight of the umpire. This means that a h'gh fly over the right-field fence, hit fair, but soar ing over the foul line, will be fouL One other rule that McCarthy hopes to enforce will be to compel the home team, as well as the visiting team, to clear the diamond after practice and remain in the dugout until the game is called and during the time that the umpire is announcing the line-ups. This is done in the' big leagues, McCarthy states, and if it is carried out will add 50 per cent to the pro motion of the game. The balk rule will also be strongly carried out. Pitchers who make a half motion to first base will be forced to throw the bail to the initial sack or have a balk called on them. The other rules are the same as those of last year, and the co-operation of the managers will be asked to enforce them. Bowling Tourney on Last Lap. BUFFALO. March 28.
