QUAKER THINLIES

s nuunu imu ohm

FOR INDIANA MEET . Quaker tracksters are beginning to round Into shape under the direction of Coaches Mowe and HIgglns and are showing signs of speed and endurance, which speak well for the condition they will be in forv the first meet with Indiana university. The coaches have a squad of about 40 men to work with and should be able to mould a winning team out of the number. Although the work up to the present time has consisted mainly of calisthenics, starting practice and endurance jaunts, the runners are beginning to lose their stiffness and are able to cavort around the cinder oval with astonishing speed. Of the new material on hand, Beck, a former Wabash man and a member of this year's Earlham basketball quintent, perhaps is showing the most promise. His specialty is the quartermile, and it will take a fast man to lead him at the end of the 440 cir cuit. Elliot, another new addition to the squad, is out for the half mile and is showing plenty of speed. Dale Shows .Up Dale, a sophomore, is' working hard on the discus event and may be able to land a job hurling the disc. Wildman shows promise in the pole vault, although little has been done on this event because of the poor condition of the pit, . Emslie, of R. H, S. fame, is proving to be the same speed demon that represented the high school for two or three years In the quartermile, and will make his presence felt when the final selections are made. All of last year's squad are out for duty and going through their paces. Ivey, captain and star point getter of the team, is putting in his ' time on the high hurdle event, with the expectation of equaling,' if not exceeding, his former records. The veterans are all in good condition with the exception of Robinson, who will be out for about two weeks because of a sore foot. The work of improving the track is progressing rapidly and the authorities hope the field will be In firstclass shape in time for the first meet. PENNSY LEAGUE. The standing of the Pennsy league

BRINGING UP FATHER BY McMAHUS "Reg. U. a Pat. Oft"

Speaker Building For Future is Report From Ifaining Camp

Tris Speaker is building for the future, writes Henry Edwards, well known scribe with the team at Dallas, Texas. Barring accidents, Cleveland will be in the running for the pennant for several years. Most wise baseball managers have one eye open for the future, and Speaker has both lamps peeled. The real veterans of the Indians are Speaker, Larry Gardner, Doc Johnson, Jack Graney, Joe Wood, Steve O.Neil, Leslie Nunamaker, Chet Thomas, Ray Caldwell, Jim Bagby and Stanley Covejeskie, and yet few will say these players are slipping. Slip they must, sooner or later, but it is not expected all will start to go back at the same time. Take Jim Bagby and Stanley Coveleskie. They won 53 games last season, while Caldwell won 20 more. Nothing about such a record to indicate much of a slip for a year or so. Steve O'Neill had the best record of his life last year, while Larry Gardner never showed to better advantge. We all know how wonderfully Speaker performed. We also know what strength Doc Johnson was to the team and how capably Graney arose to the occasion when given the opportunity. The others did not have much chance to show, but they were ready when called on. George Burns. Bill Wambsganss, Charlie Jamieson, Joe Evans, Elmer Smith, George Uhle, Walter Mails, Guy Morton and Bob Clark, still are young, while Joe Sewell is but a boy. So much for the men who won Cleveland's first pennant. Most of the new men acquired are pitchers, and it is surprising to think that Speaker has been able to pick up so many pitchers who appear destined to make their mark in the big show. To take Speaker's own words, his greatest trouble is to weed out his pitching staff He remarked a day or so ago that no-club ver had so many promising left-handers. In addition to Mails, who has won his major league spurs, Tris has four others whom he is willing to bet will make good in the American league. Two of them, Pott and Middleton, may be only diamonds in the rough, but they nave the stuff to fool the best batters in the country if it is found they have the necessary control and that is something time alone will tell, as Speaker has not been able to put them to the test. At any rate, Speaker is extolling the abilities of his five left-handers. Mails, Petty, Odenwald, Pott and Middleton, as he never did a quintet of pitchers before. There was no such praise in regard to left banders of a year ago. Tris has not said much about Jim Lindsay, right-hand recruit, but the other Indians have, while Spoke is warm in his praises of Edmondson, the Trinity college right-hander whom Gleason would like to have for the White Sox. - Speaker also is proud of Jeanes, his Texan outfield recruit. It is a big surprise that no Texas league club picked Jeanes up the last year or so. PAT MORAN TO SEND RECRUITS HOME FRIDAY (By Associated Press) CINCINNATI, O.. March 23. Manlager Moran of the Cincinnati Nation als plans to send some of his recruits home when the team leaves Cisco Friday for its barnstorming trip through Texas and Oklahoma, according to reports coming from the. training camp. Among those to go are said to be first baseman Felix, infielders Schirmer and Sharer and outfielder Dawson. All of these plavers have shown real prom ise and will be farmed out to minor league clubs for more experience. Derin!3 Williams will be retained as uulity outfielder. Cold weather and wet grounds forced the Reds to take another lay off vep.terdav. "I hate to lose two I davs in succession." said Moran, "but ! nothing would be gained by putting on i a hard practice in such weather as thi3. It would simpiy mean an epi demic of colds and lame arms The Cincinnati team is scheduled to play a game this afternoon at Breckenndee. The opposing team wm De picked from college players and old professionals now working in the oil district and Moran has promised to loan them a couple of pitchers for the occasion. O'Connel and Webb Mix in Decision Bout April 4 DAYTON, O., March 23. The Miami Athletic club has met Charlie 0"Connel's team and the conqueror of Blockie Richards will meet Young Webb, local light-weight contender in a 12round bout for a referee's decision Monday night, April 4. The fans of this city have been demanding this match as they figure that Webb's showing here against Charlie White stamps him as a likely prospect and they think that he will be able to avenge Blockie's defeat by outgaming O'Connel. Webb has been training for months in anticipation of this bout, and is in wonderful shape as he realizes that this is his opportunity to climb ahead of Richards on the way to the light-weight championship. The bout will be staged by the Miami Athletic club at Triangle Park, and the main card will be supported by a brace of good preliminaries.

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

He can - field and hit. If he is not retained by Speaker this year it will be because he has six veteran outfielders. In such an event, he probably will be placed with some American association club. The infield recruit that causes Speaker and his corps of lieutenants to wax enthusiastic is Riggs Stephenson. Speaker knows that Riggs is fast as lightning in. fielding and batting, has a splendid batting position and hits the leather with vigor. He is not a finished ball player, but is learning every day. He is too good to be farmed out and when he comts to the Indians in June he should stick. Behind the bat is the only spot where Speaker has not prepared for the future and that is because he has not been able to pick up the man he seeks. Jack Gillis, the Boston boy, is not big league caliber. - RICHMOND HIGH WILL USE EARLHAM TRACK Track call will be Issued at the local high school as soon as the track at Earlham is in condition for use. The high school has no track and the officials at Earlham have gladly offered the use of its track for the high school athletes. A call was to have been issued the first of this week but not having any track in condition for use it was decided to postpone it until the track was in condition for use. It is thought that he track will be ready for use about the first of next week. Coach Null expects about 100 men will turn out for the first call when it is issued. Little is known as to the track ability of the high school lads as there was no team representing the school last year and the track proshorse proposition. j Letters have been sent out to several schools m an effort to schedule some meets for the season and a meet k, tintv, MOC!Ma uog j ovuuuicu tt nil w iiw j here on May 7. It is thought that Tech of Indianapolis will be brought here for a duel meet this season. Several men will be sent to the district meet, invitational meet at Cincinnati university, and the tri-state meet at Miami university. Johnson Repeats Testimony to Jury (Rv Associated Press) CHICAGO, March 23. Testimony given the grand jury last year in the investigation of the world's series, by President B. B. Johnson of the American league baseball scandal was repeated by him yesterday before another grand jury and a transcript of the statements of other witnesses was read by Assistant State's Attorney Gorman, in the effort to secure new indictments against the eight former White Sox and others whose indictments were dropped. Additional testimony by Johnson will be given later in the week and new indictments are expected to be voted next week, Gorman said. Gleason Divides Regulars, Rookies (By Associated Press) 'CHICAGO, March 23 The division of regulars and rookies on the Chicago White Sox baseball team has been made by Manager Gleason for the homeward bound training trip, according to dispatches received here today. The Sox regulars play the Waxahachie, Tex , high school team today and then go to Wichita Falls. Tex., for three games. The selection of Eddie Mulligan for third base on the squad of regulars is taken to indicate that the former Salt Lake infielder is to get the regular berth there this summer. Eagles, Cambridge City, Will Meet Thursday Night Thursday night the Eagles basket- j ball team will battle the Cambridge City Independent basketball five on the Eagle floor for 40 minutes. The Eagles have one win over the Cam(bridge City quintet, defeating them a few weeks ago on the Cambridge City floor by a few points. I From all indications the game prom ises to be hotly contested. Manager Roser, of the Eagles, requests that the following players report at the Eagles hall Thursday night at 7 o'clock sharp: Eubanks, McBride, Chappel, Byrkett, Fitzgibbons and Hawekotte. Frank Chance Looks Over Chicago Cubs (By Associated- Press) CHICAGO. March 23. Frank Chance, under . whom the Chicago Cubs achieved world-wide fame, looked the team over at the Pasadena, Calif... training camp "yesterday, according to dispatches' received today, but refused to commit himself on the team's prospects. "I want to see them in ball games before passing judgment," Chance said, The schedule of homewa rd bound practice games begins today with games against Vernon and Los Angeles.

Al Clayton, looking down from his diminutive second CISCO BEATS MIAMI AS TRAINING CAMP, SAYS VETERAN COACH CISCO, Texas, March 23. A heavy rainstorm here Tuesday caused the postponement of the game between the x,, , , . , , i Reds and the Columbus Senators. Because oi uie conaiuon or me grounas it was impossible to stage a game between the two teams. The Reds are scheduled for a game to be played at Breckenridge, Wednesday, where oil men will "shoot" a well for the Reds. There are no rubber shirt athletes In ihe Red camp this season. Nor are there any who need a rubber shirt to reduce their weight. Every athlete who reported to Pat came with a fat stomach and not a single man had to vork unusually hard to get down to playing weight. Florida Too Hot, Hosklns. This is something that seldom happens in these days when the ball players draw big coins and live easy during the off season - There usually are two or three fat men on every team each year who have to work at a grinding pace to get off the extra weight. Doc Hoskins does not agree with those Reds who tout Miami as a better training camp than Cisro. judging solej ly by climatic conditions The veteran j trainer of the Red crew says the 1 Honda climate Is too hot. "Over here the bovs have far morp mn than ihhad at Miami last year.-' he says Charley See is having more trouble in the outfield lately than when he first came to the Reds.
