This spring, according to a statement by Ptesident Griffith today, no heads will be lopped off until the team returns to Washington, and it may be several weeks there- aiter before the make-up of the club finally is determined. When the Natiomals break camp & week from tomorrow a delegation numbering half a dozen or so will be sent direct to the capital to work out at Griff’s revamped stadium for a week, while the main bunch is en tour north with the Braves.

M “T'hi: Those whose services can best be spared in the barnstorming trip will be selected. Proves They Are Puzzled. \ The decision to defer wielding the ax is taken to mean that.Messrs. iriflith and Milan still are very much in doubt as to the relative merits of their recruit pitchers and are deter- p as much time as is the sheep from the quite apparent now, of that some of them stand a much better chance of sticking than others, but there are a few whose bilities seemingly are so nearly cqual that it may be necessary to wait until the middle of May, when 1he legal limit of twenty-five players must be observed, to do the final cut- t s T hope we do have difficulty in weeding ‘em out, Griff with a grin. “There's nothing 1I'd like better than to have such a large squad of promising pitchers that it would be aifficult to decide among them. There would be nothing tough about a job like that, it would be a reai pleas- ure.” Play Braves Again Today. For the fourth battie of the series hetween Braves and Griffmen here today, which now stands two games io one in_favor of the Nationa! Leaguers, Zachary, Woodward and leason slated for mound duty, working three rounds apiece. It was Milan's intention to divide the hurl- ing between Erickson and Mogridge. but Olaf is feeling the effects of the short route he traveled so effectively at full speed earlier in the week and the southpaw has asked for a little more time so as to be in top form for next Tuesday's setto. Slanager Mitchell has not announced what pitchers he intends sending asainst the onals. but oid Rube Marquard probably will be cne, and ¢ is likely Dana Fillingim, another cteran, may draw his first slab as- ignment of the spring. The latter s a spitball heaver. and, if he has control, should prove a stumbling block to the Griffmen, who never have shown much ability against ex- ponents of the damp deilvery Regulars Presented With Game. The Regulars registered another victory over the Yannigans in yes terday's practice clash, but are en- titied to little eredit for it, as four of the five runs they obtained were xifts, while the recruits earncd two their three markers. Brillheart, ‘or the Regulars, and McGrew, for the Yannigans. were the opposing vitchers., and each went the entire seven rounds, the first time _this spring any of Milan's flingers have traveled farther than five. Brillheart_yielded only four hits. He retired the Yannigans in order in four frames, and with better breaks would not have been scored on. He was the victim of circumstances in the first inning, for instance, when Smith etarted with a lucky Texas leaguer and Lamotte laid down a bunt that Judge chose to field instead of re- maining on the bag to let Brillheart handle the tap. Brower walked to fiil the bases with none our. One run came over ‘on Goebel's long fly and another resulted when Torres was charged with a passed ball. The third run off Brillheart developed in round 5. when Lightfoot was winged, took third on McGrew's single and scored while Peck was tossing out Smith. Put Three Runs Acroms. McGrew escaped being scored on in the opener, although he walked Mi- Jan and Judge and Goslin got scratch hits, but in the second inning three regulars made the circuit, although ‘but one was entitled to score. Har- started with a short double to right and stole third as Shanks was walked. On Torres' rap Brower leaved to left field in attempting to start a double play, Harris scoring, and when Goebel returned the bali to Lamotte the latter fired high to Brower, pitting Shanks on third and Torres "on second. Brillheart then walked. Judge's long fly cashed Shanks and sent Torres to third, which he held when Smith got under Peck's loft.” A Texas laguer to right by Milan, which La- motte should have handled, was re- corded as a double. It scored Torres, and when Brillheart also attempted to tally he was flagged by Lamotte’s throw to Picinich. . McGrew was not in trouble again till the fifth. when, two on base through a walk to Peck and Bluege's error on Rice, Goslin rolled into a double play. In the sixth Harris walked, stole and scored on a fumble 1y Lamotte. Another boot by Bobble Sn the seventh was negatived when Milan_lined to Brower, who started 2 double play, but the latter was in- directly responsible for the Regulars’ sifth and final counter which followed. Tuloe beat out a bunt to the first base- man and reached second on an_at- tempted steal when Brower hit Rice in the back with the ball in chasing him between bases. He scored on Goslin's single to center. Tmprove ns Game Progresses. Neither McGrew nor Brillheart had much stuff at the outset, but both im- proved as the game wore on. The Texan displayed a fair turn of speed and the youthful southpaw tinkered with a slow ball rather effectively. e is progressing in his efforts to «cquire a change of pace. Gharrity, who started behind the bat far the Regulars, was compelled to retire in 1he first inning when a finger on his throwing hand got in the way of & fast ball. He resumed practice after wetting first aid treatment. Gonlin devoted nome time vesterday practicing at sliding into bases, an art in which he is deficient. Goose is a fast runner and hooks into a bag in zood style, but doesn’t start his slide early enough. A daily drill of the paths is scheduled for him. Judge is being handicapped in his training by a weak left ankle, the one T fractured in Detroit several years ago. The joint is stiff and prevents Tim from moving around with the speed necessary to get into condition pidly. - Walter Johmson was in uniform again yesterday, after missing four days this week and two days last week, duc to a threatened attack of 1he grip. He indulged in'a good workout and says his arm feels fine. *I'he big pitcher now faces the prospect of having his training retarded by worry over the illmeys of his_ wife, Jiowever, Mrs. Johnsol, who only re- cently had a siege of influensa, is suf- sering from a gathering in her head Zust back of the noxe and her con- _aditieq is regarded as serious o COBB GOT $60 A MONTH IN HIS FIRST-SEASON RALEIGH, N.

The Hilltopper: who opened play with a 17-to-2 V! tory over the Hampton Roads Naval Training Station team, at Hampton roads yesterday, probably will take another fall out of the Sailors, but the Kendall Greeners are not likely to find the going so easy against Briarley Hall Military Academy, on the Florida avenue dlamond. Th: Jocal engagement was .10, begin at 3 oclock. The Georgetown - Hampton Roads match was featured by much heavy hitting by the winners. The Blue and Gray batsmen hammered two | Sailor pitchers for twenty safeties; including three homers and as many triples. J. Murphy, Sheedy, Kenyon and Reynolds led the attack. All but Reynolds clouted | three-basers, and Sheedy was the only one of the quar- tet failing to negotiate a circuit clout. Reynolds hurled the first seven in- nings, ylelding seven hits and both runs, ‘but he fanned eight and gave only one base on bails. While today's game at Kendall Green was scheduled orlginally as a practice tiit, Gallaudet expects a real battle from the Poolesville Cadets. The Kendall Greeners' tentative line- up has Seipp at shortstop, Rose as catcher, Danofsky at second base, Boatwright In right fleld, Bradley at first base, Hawkins at third base, Wallace in left field, Lucado in cep- ter fleld, and Lahn as pitcher.

Godfrey of Boston in the final round of the women's doubles, Mrs. Jessup defeated Mrs. Mallory and Mrs. L. G.

The program includes nearly a hun- dred even's, calling for 250 cups, medals, ritbons and other trophies. The affair is purely intramural, the climax of a season which has seen more than 7,000 participants. Ohio State shines in varsity sports, in foot ball and base ball especially, but her prestige in this respect is as sound- Ing brass compared to the extraordinary demonstration of the success of her theory of sports for all which will marx the present week end. Almost every registered sport was employed to Intramural use throughout the year and the college, classes, frater- nitles, boarding clubs, church, military organizations, freshmen—even tie fac- ulty--were drawn upon for teams and individual athletes. It would be well for conference col- leges and institutions in other sections of the country to study Ohio's intra- mural system with a view to applica- tion. LEADS WOMAN GOLFERS.
