Frank Duning RED'S HEW ARRAY PLAYSjAST BALL Herzogr's Team Fastest Representing Cincinnati on Diamond for Years in Early Practice Games. TRY OUT YOUNGSTERS Young Players to Get Thorough Workout Before the Manager Cuts Them Loose From Regular Berth. BY C. H. ZUBER. CINCINNATI, April 15. With a majority of the teams in the two major leagues started on their way in the 1914 flght for the pennant, base ball enthusiasts all over the land will now have their box scores and percentage tables regularly on their daily menu. The opening games of yesterday carry no significance with them, further than to emphasize the fact that base ball promises to be more popular than ever this year. Here in Cincinnati the followers of the game have been worked to an extraordinary pitch of enthusiasm over the methods that have been pursued in assembling and developing the talent that is to comprise the Reds this year. No claims are made for the team, so far as position is concerned, but those who have seen the boys perform so far unhesitatingly pronounce the brand of baseball offered to be of a higher class than any shown by a local aggregation in recent years. The only question about the team is its mechanical strength. Intellectually, and in the matter of leadership the Reds of 1914 measure up with any aggregation that has represented Cincinnati on the diamond in the past twenty years. Changed Lineup. No team in the National league offers more opportunities for study than the Reds of this season. The many changes that hve been made in the lineup add much interest to the general performance of the team this year. The engagement of Herzog as manager and shortstop; the advent of Bert Nlehoff at third; -Herb Moran in right field; Gonzales and Von Kolnlta behind the bat; the string of new pitchera, including Earl Tingling and Jack Rowan, and the several new lnflelders and outfielders who are trying for utility jobs, add much to the zest which usually accompanied the study of the early work of the team. These youngsters will be used as much as possible in the early games in order that Manager Herzog may get a correct line on them and not turn any adrift who later may develop into stars. So the patron of the early games wjll have the opportunity of seeing many youngsters in action youngsters who have come up as stars from other leagues, and who have demonstrated their right to thorough tryouts before their status finally is fixed. First Sunday Game. The Reds' first two series of games will be with teams that the wise men have picked as possible pennant winners. Just at present Manager Herzog and his crew are entertaining the Chicago Cubs, who present a somewhat different aspect than when they played here last year. Following Hank O'Day's aggregation the Pirates, led by Fred Clarke, will some to town, they being the first Sunday attraction of the season, scheduled for an encounter on April 19, and again on May3, the St. Louis team, also with a changed map, having the intervening Sunday, April 26. The Pirates, since last, seen here, have relieved St. Louis of Ed. Konetchy, Mike Mowrey and Pitcher Boh Harmon, and have given the cards in exchange Hans Miller, Dolan, Chief Wilson and a pair of pitchers. The Pirates also have developed an outfielder by the name of Kelly, and several - battery men, so that they may cut more ice than expected. Doping Sport With Charlton BY FRANK CHARLTON, Who is the man that's glad today? Who wears the smile that wont go war Who wuoops and shouts and yells "Hoorayf The fan. What gladsome cry now greets the car? What Slogan fills us up with cheer? What tells us that old summer's here? Play ball! As a result of the brilliant and dazaiinK styles which are being imported from Paris, this year's international polo matches promise to be the most successful in years. General Villa, the prominent bandit, is reported to have been defeated at San Pedro. Well, if it comes to the worst, Villa can jump to the Federals. It is reported that punting is to be added to the curriculum at Princeton. Don't despise the Bush league boy. For he may be some day. A favorite in vaudeville Collecting princely pay. The Federal league won't stand up, organized baseball magnates said, but 22,000 attended the opening of the Feds season . in . Baltimore Monday. Yah, the Federals will starve to death with crowds like that.

RUSSIAN WRESTLER ACCEPTS CHALLENGE Young Hackenschmidt May Meet Busch on Mat fr Richmond Fans.

If arrangements can be completed for holding the match, local fans of the wrestling game will have an opportunity of seeing Carl Busch, middle weight champion of Germany, mix it with "Young" Hackenschmidt, of Boston, Mass. Busch issued a challenge here several days ago to any one willing to take him on and Hack has responded with a statement that be is ready to meet him at any time and at any place. Busch has previously challenged Hackenschmidt for a match hut failure to agree on terms caused the catling of the meeting. The German is anxious to meet Hack and will attempt to get the Richmond Amusement company to stage the affair. If satisfactory terms can be agreed upon the match will be held in this city at a near date. Weights Even. Both men seem to be about evenly matched in weight, although the Russian may scale the beam a trifle in excess of the German: Not more than five pounds at the highest separate the two men and from all appearances the match would be the beBt ever staged in this town. Hackenschmidt is but a youngster while Busch is several yeara his senior. Hackenschmidt has been a professional for about three years and in that time has taken the number of some of the best mat-artists in the game. If negotiations with the Richmond backers are successful, both men will come to this city and begin their training. Hackenschmidt yesterday expressed, himself favorably on the Y. M. C A. as training quarters and will begin work there as soon as something definite is learned about the match. He would like to hear from some local boys that would be willing to work out with him. Although Hack would have little trouble in handling any one in this city, this is nevertheless a chance for some local aspirants to get some good pointers at the game, as Hack understands the game from A to Z.

Although Kenney's men were beaten in last Sunday's game with the Norwood team at Cincinnati, the -defeat does not feaze the Quaker bunch In the least, as this was the first game of the season, and Richmond was without the services of two of their best fielders, Cann and Law son. Red and Cy were unable to play with the Quakers on that date, but will be seen in Quaker uniforms hereafter. Much interest has been manifested over the series between the Richmond team and the Middleborough Appalachian leaguers, as the managers of both teams are old time friends and each claims that his team is the best in the bushes. Kenney and Draper have been In the game together before entering upon their managerial careers. Kenney thinks he has gathered together the fastest assortment of players to be had outside the big league circuits, and a trio of tight games aie assured the Richmond bugs when the teams meet here for the series, starting April 26.

Win the game of polo be revf-ved la this city next winter? This is a qeetion that is interesting supporters of the game that was so popular back la the balmy days of "Shorty Jeamips pennant winning five, ot the Indiana Polo league. Prospects of Its "comeback" are said to be extremely good by persons interested tn the game. Clem Gear, of this city, and Chas. J. Lyons, of Elwood, hare expressed themselves favorably on the project and indications point to the fact that something will be done in the near future to ascertain the opinion ot backers of the old organisation on the subject. It was thought that possibly two or three exhibition games could have been arranged for here this spring but the lateness of the season makes this unlikely. Three Indian. Rings. There are at present three rinks of regulation size in Indiana. A new rink has just ben completed at Mnncie and with regulation floors at Richmond and Elwood would give three cities of the eld circuit that would form the nucleus for the proposed league. Interest at Marion, Ander son and several other old time polo towns is said to be growing and these towns would no doubt welcome the re turn of the game. The American League ln the East, which just olosed a successful season in the eastern cities, has obtained the old stars of the Indiana circuit, but if the game was revived here these men would rather play ln this section of The Han that is Hard to Please Is the Kind of Man to Whom Heins Caters to It Is Known that Men Who Are Very Particular about Their Clothing Are His Regular Customers Men buying their suits from Heins are guaranteed an exclusive pattern and they can select that pattern from piece goods of which he has a large assortment.
