Pitchers Should be Penalized for ‘Their Wildness, A step will be taken at the spring meet- ing of the league to make the percentage of runs earned off a pitcher a truer indi- cation of a pitcher's ability than it is now. Manager Hanlon will make an attempt to change the rule so that it will be of some use and mean something. “Yhe present earned run rule is, as you say, an absurdity,” he sald yesterday. “It is absolutely of no use in furnishing a basis by which to judge the relative work of the pitchers, which was the original purpose of the rule. In fact, it Is worse than useless, because I once knew a pitch- er who used to give bases on balls purpose- ly to some batters to prevent the runs against him being ‘earned.’ I suppose some of the pitchers last season watched those things closely and did the same thing I shall try to get ue to pass a rule with some sense and that will allow us to ‘get a Such a in it, line’ on the work of the pitchers. rule should make the pitchers responsible for bases on balls, batter’s hit and wild pitches as much as for base hits.” Fault of the English Stroke. Wallace Ross, the well-known oarsman, discussing the English and American styles of rowing and watermanship, says: “Any sensible man who knows anything about rowing will not allow a sculler or an oars- man to Have a pause at any! part of his stroke. The Yale and Harvard crews last year had a distinct. patsse at the catch and finish of every stroke,so much so that it was noticeable to the spectators along the river bank.” In reply to a question as to Lehmann’s chances with Harvard this year, Mr. Ross aid: “If he uses the same origging and yle of rowing which he used last year it won't be a case of who wins, but it will be a matter of by how much Cornell will win.” > On the Chevy Chase Links, The conditions were not just right for excellent play at golf Saturday, but some very creditable scores were made in the sixth match of the weekly competitions be- ing held on the links at Chevy Chase.

Boston Duplicates Badly Beaten at Baltimore, COMING MATCH FOR MIXED PAIRS Enthusiastic Gathering in the Wi- modaughsis Rooms. A SAMPLE OF STRATEGY pee The fifteenth match for the A. W. L. trophy was played at the Baltimore club house Saturday between the Boston Du- Plicates and the Baltimores. The match was won by Baltimore. The score was 33 to 17. It is but fair to Boston to state that Mr. Parker, one of their strongest Players, was prevented from coming by the illness of his wife. Mr. Douglass came in his place, and, although he was on the wrong side of three swings of three tricks each, on boards 8, 10 and 12, he did fairly well, as did the rest of the team up to board 36, the game then standing a tie, each having 15 tricks won. After that the Baltimores won as they pleased. The Bostons took great Mberties with the game, and led singletons on sev- eral occasions. The Baltimores played their regular game and at.no time seemed wor- ried. Thomas carried off the honors for the Baltimore club in the early part of the game, and in the latter part divided honors with the rest of the team. One of the Baltimore team, on board 8, held up the ace of trumps, fourth hand, on adversary’s lead of ten spot, in re- sponse to a call. The ten took the trick, then the eight was led; third hand played jack, which fourth took with his ace. Fourth hand now knowing the original leader to be exhausted, goes on with his suit and forces the strong hand, gaining 3 tricks. Thomas on board 30, with ace of trumps turned on his right holding five trumps, headed by king and queen, led the nine of spades from ace, king. He found the queen with his partner, who led him jack of trumps through the uce turned, and made a great game. The Baltimores were very desirous of winning this match, as it would give them a tie with their old rivals, the Philadel- phias, in the number of ‘wins for the trophy. Rather Startling. Regarding the last contest between the Baltimore and Walbrook, the captain of the Walbrook team makes some Startling statements, which will be read by whist players throughout the country with a great deal of interest. He made a care- ful analysis of the 48 boards, and claims the Walbrook dropped 40 cold tricks and Baltimore was guilty of allowing 15 of these icicles to freeze on its preserves. From this Mr. Smith’s mathematical mind draws the inference that as 15 plus $ equals 23, and as 40 minus #3 equals 17, the Walbrook sy em just 17 tric em beat the Baltimore in the match in ques- tion. It is sincerely to be hoped that Mr. Whelan, the captain of the Baltimare ill, as Mr. Work suggests, examine analysis and affirm this statement or that these whist gladiators, who are defeating all the crack clubs of ‘the coun- try, can afford to throw away 15 to 40 tricks in an eleven-hour game of 48 boards. Baltimore-Washington Match. The Baltimore News states that the team for the mixed pair contest between Baltimore and Washington, to take place in Baltimore the 20th, has been selected, and already the Baltimore contingent are getting into active practice for the match, which will be very close, although Balti- more expects an easy win, on account of system, as one or two of the Walbrook players will be in the match. The Wash- ington club will do well to study the sys- tem of their adversaries. The leads of the two clubs, Baltimore and Walbrook, in their last ‘contest were given in The Star of Tuesday, the 4th instant, and are a Buide to their initial play. Enthusiastic Whist Gathering. There was an enthusiastic gathering of whisters at Wimodaughsis club rooms Sat- urday evening. The play of pairs under the Safford system was particularly interest- ing to many to whom this system was new. In another room those not so ex- pert in the game had an enjoyable con- test in progressive whist, and some who won the prizes surprised themselves as well as the other participants. There Were twelve prizes (six in euch room). At the Capital Club. The handicap tournament at the C. Bi. C. that has been interfered with on account of Christmas and New Year day coming Saturday, was continued last Saturday evening. The boards were unusually in- teresting, and though the score was close for the north and south, the east and west players furnished a wide divergence, as will be noticed in the score given below: NORTH & SOUTH.

This deal 1s given with the overplay, to show the value of whist strategy as played by Teddy Ballard, one of the best strate- gists in the country, witholding his ace of trumps until able to exhaust both adver- saries at trick 6, table No. 1: At table No. 2 Becker false cards his king of spades at trick 3. Trick 4. Opens trumps, and although getting in at trick 6 without being forced, goes on with his established diamond suit, fearing to find both trumps in one hand against him, knowing that the adversuries have an established spade suit.

Po eeesosccoes = = not want to go into the minor league ranks, as he has always been a high-priced pl: er and his salary in minor company would be reduced about half. Mr. Wagner recog- nizes the fact that Tommy did exceptional work for the Senators last year, and for this reason will sell his release at a nomi- nal figure, and so arrange matters that he can” continue in the fast company to which he. belongs. As to the suggestion that has received considerable circulation within the past few days, that Doyle go to third and Tuck- er remain on first for the Senators, Captain Brown declares emphatically that this ar- rangement could not succeed. Doyle has climbed up to the very pinnacle of first basemen and to relegate him to a position with which he ts not familiar would be un- fair to the player, and one in which t player himself might have something post- tive to say. Nothing has been received from Doyle yet in the way of a letter, but the chances are that on his way east he will either stop over at Washington or Philadelphia. But the other players of the Washington club have expressed themselves in no un: certain terms as to their opinion of the outcome of the Washington-Baltimore deal, Of course the men who have written do not care to “knock” the players they were associated with last season, but at the same time the fact cannot be lost sight of that the new men have great reputations and have been played against by the men who have written to Mr. Wagner. Al. Selbach wrote to Capt. Brown as well as Mr. Wagner, and his letter is quite in- teresting. In it the rman nator spoke well of the deal, referred to the nu- merous bats he is getting out for the boys next season, and also remarked that he is glad that the Cincinnati “dicker” did not pull him out of Washington. Al. he likes the capital city and has lots of friends here. He says he is taking good care of himself, but imagine “Sel” at 185 pound: Referring to the new suits, Capt. Brown said this morning that he is after a bright blue that will not fade, and if he su in getting what he wants the Senator: uniforms next season will be the prettiest in the circuit. The uniforms will probably be made right here in Washington, leves in patronizing ho: is of the opinion that better satisfac- tion can be secured in the way of accurate Measurements or alterations. The players will report to Capt. Brown March 21, instead of the 15th, as reported. the same date the men have collected to- gether for several seasons past. Light practice will be indulged in for the few Gays before the regular games are sched- uled with minor clubs, but sufheient work will be given the men so as to place them in first-class shape for the big opening game at the start-off of the season. When told cf the anxiety of the local “funs” about the third base position, Capt. Tom said that the weakness in that pos tion Is more fancied than real.

Like other local bowling teams, the Car- rell Institute five is an old-time adversary of the team from the Baltimore Catholic Club. Last year the Carrolls defeated the Baltimore bowlers three games upon the home alleys, and then went to Baltimore and lost three games. A final set of three games was rolled on the Baltimore club's alle the Carrolls winning one. Saturday evening the Catholic Club came over from Baltimore and played the open- ing set in another series arranged be- tween the two clubs. They succeeded in winning the first game and the last, the Washington team being able to get but one game of the three. Poor generalship on the part of the Carrolls is apparently to blame for the loss of the first game, as the team had but two of the regular players. The Baltimoreans arrived early and pressed a desire for an immediate start. The Carroll bowlers not being on hand, three substitute bowlers were put in, two of them bowling low games. With the strong scores usually to be expected of Rice and Locraft in this game the result should have been different. Captain Cur- ran of the Baltimores was kept at home by illness, Mr. Goidsborough bowling in his stead. Armstrong led both sides for highest single score, bowling 195 in the second game. Wheeler of the Baltimore Catholic Club had best average, 17) The visiting team led throughout; in the first game Wheeler and Norman each bowling four strikes. The Catholic Ciu also ran the good string of 9% pins in the last frame. The score follows: Carroll Inst St. Baltimore Catholic Club, St. Sp.

Total, The Carrolls put 73 up their regular te m in the second game and won handily, bowling the good total of S77. The side had but one break in the first thirteen boxes.
