TRIBE TACKLES GIANTS TODAY IN EXHIBITION Team in Fine Shape for Games With McGraw’s Fighting Clan. SPENCER OUT A MONTH SAN ANTONIO. Texas, March 22. Fresh from tbeir double victory over the Galveston Texas League team last Saturday and Suuday, Manager Jack Hendricks srrlved yesterday lu San Antonio with his Indianapolis American Association teaeni, ready to do battle with the world’s champion New \ork Giants, and. If possible, take the number of Manager McGraw’s club in both games here. The Indians will meet the Giants today and Thursday, when they will line up against the Gotham regulars. Returning to Marlin Springs. Friday, the Indians will play the Giant Y’annigans a brace of games. The Indianapolis club has made rapid strides during the last week of training work, and right now is ready for the opening of tie regular playing season. The Association pennant rate, however, still Is three weeks away, and by that time the club, undoubtedly, will face the barrter In fine shape. There la only one man on the hospital list and he, unfortuntely will be out for many days after the season opens. He is Vernon Spencer, the liashy little outfielder whom Hendricks obtained from the Giants, and who has clinched the lead-off position for the Indians. Spencer sustained a torn ligament in the opening game with the Galveston team and he was sent back to Marlin for treatment. Vernon will be of little use to Hendricks for at least a month, during which time Lefty Morrison probably will start the batting order and likewise play centerfield. The Tribe boss has in addition to Morrison, Eddie Brown, Walter Rebg and .Harry Purcell for garden work, and thought the loss of Spencer will be keenly felt, still the Indians possess a wealth of outfield strength and hope to overcome the unfortunate Incident of last Saturday. Clint Rogge, pitcher with the Indians, Is one of the veterans of the American Association and there are, but a small group of players still in the league who were battling in the Association when Rogge came to the tribe. He has been with the Indians for six years and is beginning the seventh siege this season with even brighter prospects than ever before. In fact it is no secret that ; there are a number of major league teams which will keep watchful eyes on the curve ball expert's work this year. Clint had a short sojourn with the Clncinniati Reds last year. Os the veterans In the Association Jay Klrke, Joe McCarthy, Zwilllng, and a few others make up the players who have served as long as Rogge. Rogge Is a walking record book and knows to the minutest detail hia record of games lost and won and the percentage, and he has beej in professional baseball for more thku twelve years, starting when still in his teens.

During the season’s play they won twenty-one games and lost six, at tho same time scoring 665 points to their opponents’ 366. Fishers’ chances for a good team next season are excellent, having Butz, Castetter, Lowery, Rose, Black and Barnhill left from this year’s squad. Much credit is due to Coach Tomlinson for this year’s showing.

TWO RECRUIT PITCHERS LOOK GOOD FOR SOX Robertson From Minneapolis Makes Fine Impression in * Early Contests. INFIELD IS UNCERTAIN By DAVIS J. WALSH. SEGUIN', Texas, March 22.—One injured calf, muscular, not quadrepedic, one complete set of influenza, one demountable shoulder, two hold-outs and series of examinations at the University of Texas, two men late in reporting, one manager a bit nonplussed, not to say disconcerted, a somnambuleut little Texas town concerning itself not at all, and a large spacious time being had by all. It may sound a bit involved and just as clear as a bottle of the very best Ink, but we will explain all without unseemly delay. The Chicago White Sox are la training here. With all of these liabilities, real and fancied, the White Sox have won three ball games to date from the world's champion Giants, lost one and tied one. The answer is eternal hustle and the fact that Kid Gleason is getting laudable pitching from a pair of recruits. The first of these is Charlie Robertson, up from Minneapolis, vvhc, next to Urban Faber, looks like the best righthander in the camp. The other is John Russell a left-hander from Sioux Ciiy, who received a brief trial last year. Russell is well known as a spring pitcher. Earl Sheeley, first baseman, and the illustrious Eddie Collins were slow in reporting. Dickie Kerr still refuses to report and Eddie Mulligan, third baseman, is another holdout. Red Oslergard, his temporary successor, has thetemperamental shoulder previously ferred to. Erni Johnson, shortstop, taken his set of influenza to a local hospital cot and “Bib” Falk, one of the best young outfielders in the business, is wrestling with his examinations at college. The outlook to date has not been a certain cure for mental dyspepsia, yet Gleason and his Sox are takiug it all with a laugh and are showing commendable dash in their play. Oslergard Is really a most promising thirt baseman. He will round out the regular infield with Sheeley, Collins and Johnson, in the event that Mulligan electa to grace the outer darkness. Otherwise, It will be a battle between the pair of them. Hal Duber, a recruit first baseman, has shown rather well, but will go back where he came from, just the same. The Sox's greatest weakness Is found In the box, for the catching Is sound, with the wonderful Schalk ready to appear In the majority of games and “Yam” Yaryan available for relief duty. And even a confirmed misanthropist would be pleased with the outfield. One could go farther and do much worse than Falk, Amos Strunk and Harry Hooper with Johnny Mostil as first substitute. Mostil, a fair hitter and very fast, may be brought into the Infield unless the latter waxes more prosperous in the very Immediate future
