eral hundred fa'n-were making their &ito AtBTeticf- park this afternoon to witness the . Initial hostilities of the 1917 . Central league season between ' the Quakers and the Benders.' Both teams were in first-class condition despite the fact that both the
Richmond and South Bend players htte had very little practice the past
ten'-dsys. . M . '
Under command, of the, Generals Smith, Prexy Ed and Manager Harry.
the Benders, fourteen strong:, amvea in Richmond Wednesday evening and went. Into quarters at the Westcott hot?l. This morning the Benders went
through a sharp workout, at Athletic
vark, while Manager Myers drilled nis Quakers at the school athletic field. Myers Satisfied with Kelly From the work Kelly, the Quaker shortstop, has shown in .his position yesterday and today. Manager Myers baa decided that the ' short Held job Is in quite competent hands. Kelly ranges to bis right and left with equal ease, has a splendid pair of hands, gets the ball away rapidly with a snap throw that speeds it to first like a bullet What this little chhp can do at the best remains to be. seen . Rapp. at third. - fields his position beautifully and. in addition, is a .300 bitter. This column predicts that this bier fellow will prove one of the best third basemen in the league. The addition of Bossoloni in the outfield has made the Quakers trio of gardeners as good as any in the circuit. Playing Field in Good Shape
The playing field at Athletic park was today in the best condition it has been in in years, despite the heavy rains of the past, two weeks. This is due to the untiring efforts of Groundkeeper Justice. Work on the grandstand at Exhibition park is practically finished and the bleachers are now being put up by a large force of carpenters. The Infield at this park will probably 'be completed y Saturday and it is quite probable that it will be possible to play the first game of the Ft. Wayne series at the new park next Sunday. South Bend plays here again tomorrow and Saturday.

..Make room for Fred Toney, star
pitcher of the Cincinnati Reds, in baseball's hall of fame. Working against the Cubs yesterday he did not allow a base hit off his delivery in ten innings
or piay, tne Reds wlnninsr. 1 to 0.
Vaughn, pitching for the Cubs, only ai-
lowea two nits, both made In the tenth Some battle.
Oscar Vitt, star third baseman of the Detroit Tigers, has been reinstated bv
me national commission and the Tig era will now be a formidable team. Vitt was a salary holdout.
President Eggemeyer of the Quakers
nas a pass admitting him into any park in the two big leagues but he has to pay his two-bits to see his own team play. This rule also applies to all other club officers. In its final exhibition game before opening the league season with the Evas at Evansville, today, the Fort Wayne team yesterday defeated the Mt. Cannel, 111., semi-pro club, 2 to 1. Quite a number of fans from neighboring towns were in Richmond to
day to help put over a winner for the Quakers.
Ed Smith, president of the South
Bend club, says he has a much better
team this year than he had last year.
- r Father Duffy of St Mary's church,
was out yesterday looking over the
Quakers and his expert opinion is that Myers now has a real ball team.
Kememoer, tans, two more games with the Benders, Friday and Saturday. Ft. Wayne is the attraction Sunday. Myers pitching selection for tomorrow's game probably will be either Hart or Wagner. Both are ready for service.
