CITY BALL TEAL1

VOTES SHOWERS FOR CLUB HOUSE Directors of Association Order Dressing Booms Equipped and Ask Bids on General Repairs. Getting, out whfle the weather was good member of the Richmond Base ball association visited the Athletic park in a body yesterday to look over the property and determine what improvements were to be made, before the season opens. The Improvements decided upon were given to a local man to estimate. The bleachers and grandstand were found to be in bad repair. They will be gone over thoroughly. The fence will be repaired in several places although it ia not in as bad condition as was supposed. Sporting editors of the Palladium and Item were appointed official scor- . era. The annual meeting was postponed until the last of May. To Instali Showers. Contrary to expectations the officials decided to install four showers two on each side of the club house Instead of four as was originally intended. A cement curbing will be placed where the edge of the porch is. This plan will be tried out for the first two Sundays with players changing their wearing apparel at the park instead of at a hotel. If satisfactory the club house will probably be enlarged and an addition of two showers on each side installed. Instructions were also given to invite representatives from Greenville, Muncie, New Castle, Rushville, Connersville, Brookville, and several managers of high class Cincinnati teams to attend a general get together meeting to be held in the Commercial club rooms the first Sunday in March. This meeting was first called by Jack Remington, manager of the Connersville club, but because of the difficulty in making connections getting to and

from that city the invitation has been

changed to read, "Go to Richmond. Try to Please Pans. This i3 to be in no way connected with a league proposition but rather to go over the baseball situation among the teams in this section and provide high class attractions for the fan, whom they are trying to please. In a Cincinnati paper Sunday it was ' stated that Ambrose Puttman, the old

New York American twirler and of

late years first baseman and twirler for the Wiedemann team of Cincinnati bad been signed by Manager Kenny to play first. This makes the question of the occupancy of the first sack more perplexing as Popkins and Mollencamp were mentioned for the job. In the same paper it was stated that Popkins would soon report to the Dallas, Texas, club.

OWNER OF RED SOX PUTS SOFT PEDAL ON OVER-CONFIDENCE Lannin Fears Sport Writers May "Jiitt" Winiiing Spirit of Men Signed for the Season. BY FRANK G. MENKE, ' Sporting. Editor of The International Newsservice. NEW YORK, Feb. 15. Joe Laanlri, who owns the Boston Red Sox, was confident that the Sox would win the 1915 American League pennant until the sport writing crowd began to share the same feeling, and to voice it. "And now I'm afraid that I've been jinxed," declares the genial Joseph. "The newspaper boys didn't know they were jinxing me, but I've got a little feeling that they have. You know they unintentionally jinxed the Giants in 1914; they jinxed the Athletics in 1912, and they jinxed a lot of teams by picking them as sure winners," May Feel Too Confident. Lannin 1b of the opinion that a feeling of overconfldence may prevail among the Red Sox, because so many sporting persons are picking them to grab the American league bunting this summer. "I think I've got the talent that is necessary for a pennant winner," said Lannin, "and if the boys will go out;

! and fight all the way. there seems to !be a good chance of their landing on I top. But they must fight. I don't want my boys to get . the idea that they i have an easy task. If they 'do, the

pennant chances are gone, and so I want to keep my men from becoming afflicted with over-confidence a feel

ing that might Come to them from reading all 'the nice things the newspaper boys have to say about my 1915 team." '

RICHMOND PREPARES FOR STEELE BATTLE

Richmond high school basketball team will start on the hardest practice of the season tonight when the boys begin preparing for the return game with Steele high school at Dayton Friday night. Nohrs boys in the previous encounter pulled the game out of the grasp of the Ohio lads in the second hi T. but do not consider this game easy by any manner, as reports from Steele school show that the team has improved. Another thing to be taken into consideration is the fact that Richmond played the best basketball against the Steele boys that has been shown before or since that game.
