Five Must Be Let Out. BY DENMAN THOMPSO TAMPA, Fla,, March 19—Will George McBride be manager of the Nationals in fact as well as in name? Will the famous former short- stop, designated as pilot of a club for the first time in his long career in base ball, be the actual leader and director of the Washington team, with full authority to hire and fire and have undisputed control of its activities on the field? Will he decide which players shall occupy permanent berths, what positions they shall play? Will his judgment alone be exercised in regard to substitutions in the course of a contest, the make-up of the list of regular and relief pitchers and the order in which they shall work?

May went through another session that saw three Gal- laudet men retired in order. Capt. Mark Jackson. a portside heaver, assumed the mound burden in the sixth and had the enemy eating out of his hand. In his first inning he was nicked for a single. but struck out three men and opened the seventh session with another fan. A second- base blow was made off him before he finished the frame with his fifth strikeout. There was some loose field- fng behind him in Gallaudet's last turn at bat. but it didn’t do the trail- ers any good The less said about Gallaudets bat- tery work the better. Capt. Hartin s a pitcher is a real outficlder. After Catholic University had mauled him for fourteen hits and fifteen runs the captain gave way to Boatwright and retired to_center field in the fourth inning. While prancing about the garden Hartin had six difficult chances, and the efficient way in Wwhich he handled them thrilled the onlookers. Crooke's Shi er. Boatwright kept out of trouble un- til the seventh inning. although he yielded singles in the fifth and sixth, In Catholic University's last turn at bat the relief twirler was slammed for two blows, including Driscoll's home run, and these with §n error of his salary for purchasing arnica to apply to his brulsed ankles and shins. Catholic University’s _hitting, though against weak pitchers, must have been gratifying to Coach Moran. The Maroon and Black players step- ped into the ball nicely. With the ex- ception of DeNault and Breslin and Roddy, substituted late in the game, every member of the Brookland team | broke into the base hit column. The eighteen safeties netted Catholic Uni- versity thirty-three bases. Driscoll led the fleld with three singles and a homer. The flelding of the winners also was creditable, but there was a lack of speed on the paths. If it is to cut any swath in its cam- paign this spring, Gallaudet will have to improve mightily. Right now, it can neither hit nor fleld, and has no dependable pitcher. Capt. Hartin ap- parently is the best player of the lot, but apparently he doesn't belong on the mound. He got two of Gallaudet's five hits, doubling in the fourth in- ning and singling in the sixth. The Kendall Greeners need much atten- other safety obtained off him. Colored League Is Formed.

This may be stated on the basis of definite in- formation. The writer has had his doubts. Now he is convinced that it is on. Jack Kearns, Dempsey’s manager, is hurrying to New York | from the west, where he has been conferring with the champion, now on | a vaudeville {our. Within a short time an important conference will be held at which several loose ends will be pieced together. The location of the encounter will cided upon at this ‘kard, it, is said, ady has made his selection and conference.

AJl the chances are that the public | will know just where the ring will be set up before April 1 Carpenticr's reported statement, Jled from Sunderland, Kngland, that he would fight Dempsey in New York on July 2, was today set down as of doubtful origin. Just the same, ,any fight fan who wants to make a Fenner and | reputation as a prophet stands a good hance of having his ambition re- alized if he names either New York or some spot in New Jersey easily | reached from Gotham. Bouts have a twelve-round limit under the New Jersey law, but there is not a fighting expert who doesn't believe that twelve rounds are plenty s0 far as Dempsey and Carpentier are concerned. Carpentier will ar- rive in America in May, and when he next returns to France he will be the world champion pugilist, or a busted hope. As for the arrangements originally made regarding the purses the fight- ers were to _receive—$300,000 for Dempsey and $200,000 for Carpentier —it may be said that there is hardly a chance that the scrap will be held under those terms. The chances are that the fighters will meet on a percentage basis and that they will battle in an arena ca- pable of holding the largest crowd that ever looked upon a prize fight—or |Ington and Sailor Kendricks of the Ana<| upon any sporting event. If present ideas’ are carried out there will be seats available for more persons than ever saw Yale, Princeton and Harvard play foot ball in the New Haven bowl, which is going some. It is sald that the fighters are con- In the end this projected Dempsey- Carpentier fight is up to Rickard. He says positively now that the fight is | worth banking on.

Joe Bateman, veteran District matchmaker, is handling his first exhibi- tion in the Maryland suburb and has selected scrappers who have put up good arguments in previous encounters. Ted Muchic, former middleweight champion of the Atlantic fleet, and Johnnie Kelley of Philadelphia, are scheduled to go ten i rounds to a decision in the main num- ber. Another bout of ten rounds and two of six each have been arranged. » The semi-windup will bring together Kid Bowen, the popular local light- weight, and Donnie Duarte, claimant of the middle-west lightweight title. Duarte has some good fights to his credit and should make Bowen travel at a fast clip. Bowen has been training diligent ly this winter and is reported in excel- lent condition. Johnnic Eggleston of Northeast Wash- costla Naval Air Statfon, middleweights, are booked for the first six-round pre- liminary. Eddie Morgan of Baltimore, and John L.

Only One Remedy. Yet there are thousands of big, straight-thimking sportsmen in this country who would do anything in their power to clean up the situation. They form a caste upon which de- pends the future of sport. I have talk- ed with hundreds of them who are ready to go the limit to check the gambler and the athlete who sells his ability for crooked purposes. To the writer there seems to be one way in which to attack the insidious enemy. It is this: The gambler really gets most of his revenue from the persons who place big bets. Now, if every sportsman pledged himself for a year not to wager over ten dol- lars on any single sporting event the gambler would be stalled. Previous to the base ball scandal, no one would have dreamed, except those who had seen something of the inside, that players would jeopardize their future in any such way. Every one believes that these men did not 80 out and seek to sell their talents, but that the approaches came from the gambling fraternity, amd from them come nine-tenths of all this trouble, which has eaten like a ca cer into every sport that it has at- tacked in earnest.
