BEAVERS TO ONLY 17 ATHLETES McCredie to Have 2 Catchers, 6 Pitchers, 5 Infielders and 4 Outfielders. 11 FLINGERS NOW ON LIST Red actions Also Necessary in FVrce or Infielders, of Whom There , Are Eight No Ontfield Eliminations Are Due. BT I.06COE FAWCETT. No small regiment of tossers will eat on Walter McCredie's meal tickets this year. The Portland manager announced definitely yesterday that he would carry only. 17 players besides Trainer Frank Schmelder. Most of the time last season Mack had 20 athletes on his payroll. His estimate of 17 is spread out over the diamond as follows: Two catchers, six pitchers, five In fielders and four outfielders. This gives an extra man both for in field and outfield purposes, but only two backstops Fisher and Murray. These receivers are demons for hard work. Fisher wore the wlndpad In 139 games last year and Murray In 98 for the Portland Colts. In case of Injuries Mack always has the Cleveland club at his beck, so he feels that he can do without a third receiver. A squint through the record columns reveals that big Sam Brenegan caught only 18 games for Portland In hia ca pacity as third catcher In 1914. Twelve or fifteen hundred dollars for 18 games is rather a price. Scml-Pro. to D Tried. Mack will trot a couple of Los An geles semi-pros into camp at Fresno, more, however, to assist In the train ing preliminaries than In the expec tation of uncovering any phenoms. If Manager McCredie holds to his de termination to carry only six pitchers, he will have to tote a sharp scimlter to camp with him when he leaves for the south tomorrow night. If you doubt It, glimpse the list of moundmen: lllgginbotham, Krause, Martloonl. Lush. Rleger. Evans. Coveleskie, Cal lahan, Leonard, Bishop and Barnes. Count 'em 11 in all six holdovers from last year's champions and a squad of seasoned B-leaguers besides. Coveleskie twirled for Spokane last year: Callahan and Leonard for the Portland Colts; Bishop halls from the Cleveland rook list, and Barnes is a semi-pro pitcher from a fort near San Francisco. Infield Crowded. Too. The same crowding Is noticeable In the Infield, where Mack has eight ath letes on hand for five berths. Unless Derrick is traded to St. Louis, ho will be the regular first baseman, and ( Stump, of the Cleveland Spiders, is figured as the regular second-sacker. These are the only two positions which seem to be cinched now. Reed and Murphy, of the Phillies, will try out for short and third against Bobby Davis, last year's utility agent and Bobby Coltrin. of the Portland Colts. Naughton, of last year's utility squad, wilt try to ease in around sec ond or short, and Hall, a California youngster, will "supe" at first base. Hall I rralaed. Art Smith, employed by the Spald ing Company, played ball against Hall in several games last summer ai d e- , villa and Chlco ana no u'-nima rnnd Hal cnas". mh.ii is n. e...... paw thrower and batter and la wondeful throwing wing, avers Mmltl. Arellanes recommended him io Wa.t M.Crcdle. Speas, Dnano. Lnbcr and Klrrhrr, tho last mentioned of the Atlanta club, are the only outfield on the ramp Hit, so this quartet neej not lone any site; worrying about eliminations. Mac's champs appear better balanced this season with respect to rlgM and left-handed batsmen. With .l.hcr. Rodgers, Bancroft.

Bancroft, Ryan and Rrere gan will not be with us this season, and while the Beavers lost a right hander In Kores, still McCredie ban a whole raft of right-hand swingers corn ing up. Klrcher, the Atlanta oullfoMer. is a right-hander, giving Mac two right. Klrcher and Speas, and two portslde swatsmlths. Ixbor and Doanc In th gardens. Stump, who takes Roarers' place at second. Is also a rlght-hai-i hitter. Murray, Naughton. Davis, Coltrin sn.i Murphy are also right-handers. Hall and Reed are the solo southpaw hit ters In the batch of recruits.

(Forklns is best known to theatrical folk as -Husband of Ray Samuels, of the Orpheum circuits "Duffy Is very clever and. moreover, packs a good kick in either hand. I'm afraid Billy Roche went too strong sending this youngster against a finished ring general like the Huf falo boy." Sherman Gruman, a brother of Ralph's, received a letter from the boy yesterday, and Ralph appeared eock shure of beating Duffy. Sherman spiked rumors of a split between Fo ley and his 19-year-old protege. "Foley, could not leave Saa Tranclaco, so he told Roche to gel Ralph started." said Sherman. "Hooho is a great friend of my brother-in-law and I don't think ho would send Ralph against Duffy simply ns a flyer." The bout will take place Wednesday night of this week at Madison Square Garden and not late In March, as pre viously announced. At the recent meeting of the football rules committee In New York Walter Camp tendered his associates a dinner and announced his retirement from th committee. Tho passing of the Yale veteran marks quite an epoch In Inter collegiate football. Camp played on the original game of football under the American code back In 1876. For 37 years he has been Yule's representative on the rules com mittee. It was Mr. I'ainp who sug gested the Jl-man rule now In vogue, and It was his scheme to liavo a center pass the ball hack, thus making tho second great cleavage In classic Rugby. lie establlshe,) the dimension of tho American football field. It wa tho Yale wizard who devised tho very rule committee itself In 1KS8. Among his later achievements wera the 10-yard rulo opening r'ay and his Introduction in 1913 of an additional down to the offense, which again brought into balance the offense and defense. Hero is a great thought from a great author, Dick Rudolph, of the Koston Braves, who Is writing syndicate To ries for Kastern newspapers. "One dav after cranking my ma chine I could liardly lift my arm and for several dajs afterward It was sore. which goes to show that cranking an auto and pitching ball games are vastly different." Pitching big league ball game and writing big league stories about It are lso somewhat different. Walter Camp doubtless will he ore'iy missed by Ills associates on the foot ball rule tinkering staff; but If ho ever swoars off writing poetry Pegas-ua will never recover. We reprint this one from Mr. Ca-nt s pen an twin hist' r to Mr. Kmiolph literary outburst: A health to the Gridiron, b em per She's a inother that's making men: She turns out none that arc weaklings. She trains them as eho r.iti. And her lads U'cy grow up sturdy. There aws vhey are undershot. And when shn acls them r.-ady They're a rugged, fighting ii.t.
