This may be the they will e Manager Huggins’ choice of pitcher for the opening battle of the champlonship season against the Yankees at Washington on_Wednesday, April 12. The infleld practice for the regu- lars was considerably restricted. In View of the fact that three of them Wwere exercising muscles but little used during the winter monthe. It waa all too long for judge, however. After working only a few minutes Joe was seized with an attack of nausea, accompanied by dizziness, and flopped on his way to the clubhouse. He was a pretty sick young man for a few minutes and had to be assist- ed off the field by a pair of his team- mates. Judge felt none the worse for his experience today, however, and anticipates no reoccurrence of the spell, which is attributed to his siomach being out of order. hanks Shows Usual Pep. _Shanks, who for vears has been one of the all-too-few ‘live wiremn on the ationals, displayed as much pep as ver in the flelding drill and was fre- quently warned against throwing too hard. © Hank always wants to cut Joose the very first time he puts on a uniform, and in past springs he has invariably pulled up with a lame arm as a result. Peck. who seems to have little or no superfluous weight to get rid of, displayed great agility in getting over the ground. but he was woefully off on his judgment of ground balls and failed to make one real, clean pick-up during the entire drill, Gharrity appears to be several pounds under weight, due probably to the two weeks he spent bolling out at Hot Springs. In addition Pat's color is not good. but he says he feels well, and he demonstrated there is nothing wrong with his arm, although he wisely took it easy in throwing, mere- 1v rainbowing the ball to second and Just lobbing it to first and third, Rookles Take Field First. At the opening of the day’s toil the irregulars took the field—Brower, La- motte, Bluege, Lightfoot, Goebel, Smith. Noone and Torres, the latter holding over for a portion of the ses- sion with the regulars during the ab- sence of Picinich. ropriately increased as to mumbers in honor of © I = cueasion, their team which probably will represent shington in the American League just as it was constituted—Judge, Harris, second base; Shanks, third base; Peckinpaugh, short- n, left field: Rice, center field, and Goslin, right field. ! Batting practice for them was af- forded by Johnson, Zachary, Erlck- son, Francis, Mogridge and Digges. Having been at work considerably longer than the fegulars, the Yani- gans looked lightning fast by com- parigon, but there will be a different story to tell in' another week or o, when the older players have had a chance to get the rust kinks of win- ter out of their arms and legs. Ralph Miller stil] is confining him- self to light work with very little pitching. because of the “misery” in his left shoulder, but the tendons are gradually responding to treatment and it is expected he will be able to resume his place on the mound within a day or too. Ed Digges, the Clarendon boy. looked better in his workout vester- day than at any time since practice was inaugurated. He developed a lot of speed in pitching to batters and gave the impression of being far from a hopeless proposition as a moundsman. A Turkey Brower's on the casualty lisi vesterday's session. a big fellow and strong as a_bull. Frank has exceedingly tender hands and the pounding his gloved fin re- ceived from heaves by the rookle irflelders caused it to swell to nearly twice its normal size. { 5 me was entered as a result of Although he is i Joe Glennon looks better with each succeeding day. The hurler with the jhenna-hued hair has filled out con- siderably since he was with the Griff- men in the fall of 1920 and evidently ilearncd something under the tutelage of Billy Smith at Shreveport last season.” He claims his arm is not atrong yet, but the regulars will attest he had all they cared to look at in the way of deceivers 'yesterday. Ray Francis is coming forward by leaps and bounds. His stiff arm motion prejudiced critics against him at, the outset of training work, but he is getting his body into his delivery in fine style now. Francis came here {with a reputation for speed, which he has fully lived up {o. It was safd he lacked a curve ball. but he used an assortment of _benders _yesterday 'wh|ch indicated he is not deficient in that respect, if his actions vesterday may be taken as a criterioa. ‘The temporary suspensfon inflizted on Leon Goslin may prove a benefit 10 him in the long run. In his first ses- |sion_since the ban was litted Goose worked like a trojan and the ‘er- rific punishment he inflicted on the offerings served by the rook'e hLurlers in batting practice drew exclamations from the late arrivals 1a camp. | Val Pleinich signed his contract yes- terday. It was the last day he could take without facing the prospect of paying his own expenses here. Pitcher Nat Turk arrived last <ven- ing and was to get his frst workout today. Only Donnie Bush now is miss- ing from camp. The veteran has wired Griff the name of his physician for verification of the _fact that h: really is {l], but did not say when he expected \to be able to report. Grifft will ia- vestigate.

JOHNSTON T0 60 OVER WTH YANE GOLFES CHICAGO, March 14.—Harrison Jolinston of St. Paul wil be one of the golf invaders of Great Britain this summer, according to word re- ceived by Chicago friends. Johnston is one of the longest drivers seen on American links last vear, and aiter defeating the redoubtable Francis Quimet in the national championshin at St. Louis he failed of oustinyg the ultimate Champion Jesse Guiiford only by a wild shot at the thirty- third hole. ! While Johnston is the peer of Gu'l- iford and Robert Gardner of Chic for long wooden shots. it was only a couple of years ago that he could rot take a full swing with a driver, lowing to an illness with ‘which he ileft the Army. Even vet he hus a peculiar ‘address, soling his club short of the ball and giving it a queer hitch above the ball before he lays on with such power that the pel- let is impelled almost unbelievadle distances. In the western amateur champion- ship Johnston had more than thirty ‘wooden shots of more than 300 yards. Two of them were 370 vards, and Chick Evans says one was 409 yards or more, although Evans won from the long driver through his vncaany accuracy. Johnston drove clear over the first green, 341 yards, on oue round, and on the 320-ya~d tenth fis drive hit a caddy at the flag. Even at the thirty-third hole, where he dropped his chance to defeat Guilford, he had outdriven the Boston siege gun by 15 yards. But his next shot was viciously hooked by the paling of a temnis court, iz allowing Guilford to square the match and ap- setting the. Minnesotan so that he dubbed his drive on the thirty-fifth and lost.
