Down San Jose way they thought he was a world beater, but Eddie liked base hits better than right .- crosses, hence tha change. Tommy Murray and Buddy Ryan are up to their old tricks, scuffling when ever there Is no Immediate call on their services. Tha pair are pretty evenly matched and they have some' pretty hot rough and tumbles. Kuhn Is drawn Into ona now and then and being of their weight and height , is a match for lthen; .; - ;-V pt: ti. i By tha way. this chap Kuhn has mora nerve than a pack of Siberian wolves. Last year he was knocked' unconscious four times. Twice tie was "beaned." On another occasion Ben Henderson hit him over, his kidneys and be couldn't turn over In bed for three days. On yet another occasion he waa "kneed" by a second baseman and put out Soma little record for one season. Griffith, tha new pitcher from Mur ray's old heath, Pittsburg, Is soma warbler, i He and ''Baron" Schmleder make a duo hard to beat at the ragtime game. They used to know each other when Griff HIT trained at Alexandria last year with the Cleveland club. Grif fith In height, walk and mannerism re minds one a deal of Jack uraney, al though he is not so heavily barreled as Graney and does not weigh so much. Every time that "Mooch" Russell pitches a ball down tha alley he looks better to Manager McCredle and the bunch. Ha certainly has something on the ball and speed enough to make some of the boys chary about facing him so early In the seasons vHe tanned Man ager MoCredle with some ease the other day and as the fans know It takes - a clever twirier to whirr the roxtest bat ter In the Coast league. . :y' - ' Art Krueger Is tha hardest worker in tha tralninr camn. Tha bla? Dutch man has been doing all kinds of work to take-off flesh and get into shape. He is not heavy at that But he takes about is trina around tha nark averr day after a long grind at the bat and m the outfield. If he Is not in the pink, at condition when the season opens I no ona will be. The ball players were treated to a big gambling game her the other night when a party of four engaged In a black Jack game In one of the card rooms. Nothing but gold coin was In sight and one of : the participants passed f700 across tha green cloth to the other three. It Is said that Deer, a young catcher who tried out with Tacoma three years ago,! was success ful to tha extent of something like $900 In seven hours', play. x That beats a baseball salary soms. . e Rodgers, the New England recruit toted a good slsed arsenal out to the coast Ha haa two rifles and a shot gun and a number of the players have been Invited on after practice shooting parties. Birds unprotected by the Cali fornia game laws have fallen victims. Bill Steen Is a wise old head. Bill is taking matters easy and Is gradually working himself " Into : condition ' He rarely cuts them loose and It Is a safe bet that when the season opens Bill will be ready to pitch tha opening game against-l,os Angeles. ' , e - e Tom Beaton Is rounding Into - shape in fine style and ought to ba ona of the most effective pltohera In tha league next season, . Tommy Sheehan Is yet a trifle fat but Is working hardand there will be no surplus flesh when ha takes his po sition on third base March 18.
