CHICAGO, April 16.—Gambling on baseball games will be curtailed this season, according to officials of tho Chicago National League club, who have started a .movement against the practice. It is claimed that numerous bets are made on the strength of who the opposing pitchers are to be. This year Manager Fred Mitchell declared he will not announce his pitcher until the time his batting order is handed to the umpire, just before the game, in.Mitchell, whose home is in Boston, declared he knows of sevL r * instances in which the wagers were placed after the pitchers had been selected.

AFTER NEW GYM.
SHELBTVILUE. Ind.. April !«.— City school officials, teachers of the local high school, and pupils are engaged in a campaign for tho construction of a gymnasium in Shelbyvlile. suitable for the uses of the high school. The gym at the school is much too small, and the floor at the Boy Scout hall is also too small for use. The agitation was started when the athletic authorities at the high school experienced much trouble in securing basketball games here for next season with other high school teams of the state. The other teams objected to the small playing floor here.

ETERNAL ENTERS BIG FUTURI TIES—INTEREST IN NEW ARRIVAL AT LAUREL HALL.
A notable stake prospect has joined the stable of Lon McDonald in the two-year-old trotter Eternal, that last year as a yearling took a record of 2;24t4. and looked in training like one of the beat of the age. He trotted three-eighths of a mile in forty-nine seconds, which is only slightly slower than a 2:10 clip, and it was the opinion of many Lexington trainers that he could have trotted a mile close to that notch If strung to his limit. Eternal passed through both the Lexington and New York sales this winter, the first time for the purpose of clearing up a partnership, and he yet is the property of T. W. Ready, of Niles. Mich., one of the original owners. Eternal is a son of U. Forbes II. 2:12^4, one of the most sensational sires of juvenile speed, and is entered in most of the big futurities.

BLOOMINGTON. Ind.. April 16 — Jose Platos didn't know much about golf ten years ago when he was learning his geography in the graded schools of the Prilippines. Four years ago. though, he had the old longing to come to the United States. He entered the University of Chicago and learned the ancient game of the Scots after school hours. Then he came to Indiana University and last summer won the Indiana University golf championship. He has turned in some remarkable scores over the university six-hole course, his low medal score being 23 on the par-30 course.

GIANT CASTOFFS CUTTING UP.AGAIN
XEW YORK. April 16.—While the United States Lawn Tennis Association has not given official recognition to the redraw in the Davie cup matches, which took place yesterday In Sydney, it is expected that the American team will play its preliminary rounds abroad. The association plans to enter a team in the English championship, at Wimbldon next June, and It is probable that following these matches the American players will invade France for the first round with the French. If successful the British isles team which drew a bye will be met In the second round, where & second victory would place the United States team In the position of virtual challenger for the trophy now held by Australia. The American team which will go abroad will undoubtedly be composed of the leading players of the nation. Although the personnel has not been announced, it is considered certain that William Johnson.
