The anticipated vi8it of Hrrs Vardon and Ted Fajr. trreat English po!fers, to these shores this cummer looks doubtful as far as Harry's end is concerned. The veteran rolfer who has been open champion of Great Britain six times, fears that he anopossibly Rav will he unable co make the journey. This wll be a disappointment to U. S. golfers. Vardon and Rav are two of the most popular and expert devotees of the Scotch game in Europe. Miller HueglnV troubles have started. His recent action in fining Car) Mays $200 for insubordination probably is the forerunner of more tronhle. Husrfrirs' life as manager of the Yankees has been just i -.e row after another. He has been sitttnfr on e volcano from the opening dav to the final trnme. He seems unable to weed out the trmible-makers. He could not handle Del Pratt an-1 was clad to 'et hi-n pro. Talk of Peckinnaurh .succeeding Hue as manager of tL- team said to have been one of the reasons why the Yank bosses were willing to nart with Roger. Now Mays, once -he cause of a baeeball war, has kicked over the traces. Apparently Hugins faces another tough year. There'll be no title at stake when Danny Fmsh and Tony Canoni meet in New Yor May 5 but, boy. that ought to be a pretty battle. This Caponi is the sweetest fiphter In the game today.

Western league is well prepared t" celebrate the hundredth nniversary of General Grsrt's birth, April 27. They have two infielder named in his honor. Both hail from the Pacific coast. According to renorts from th Detroit team followers Pitchers f T . I i r, ii . . , . . . . .Minnson ana riiieue, ortamea rron Portland for $40,000. are shcrin' up well in practice and exhibition games. The fact that neither of the lads had woiderful records last year may help them in gettirp away to a good start. They have no great rep to live up to. In fact their records last season uld indicate they aren't about the average hurler. Johnson won twelve and lost twenty-six gamer, and Pillette managed to win but thirteen games while lnsing thirty. B-rt when it is pointed out that Portland finished a poor last in the Pacific Coast league and won only fifty-one games in the season, the work of the two hurlers doesn't appear to be so weak. The two men were bought on the word of baseball critics and Cobb's mdgment and not on their records. Which ought to cheer up other hurlers who face the io'i of struggling through a season with some tail-end team. . . . Jo!e Ray, modem Mercury, has been a busy lad the past Indoor season. Three new world's indoor records have been his achievement. Pitcher Keefe, obtained from the Athletics, may play an important part in the Indians' pennant race this year. Just now he is counted on mainly for relief duty, but it may be that he will maKo a bid for a regular berth. He'll bear watch-
