Bush to Test Youngsters in Games With Braves : Cobb Is Ready for Big ONLY TRIO OF REGULARS i | TO PLAY IN FIRST CLASH 1 Judge, Harris and Goslin to Figure Mainly Bécause There Are No Satisfactory Understudies for First, Second and Left. BY DENMAN THOMPSO! AMPA, Fla, March 14—With the first practice game oi the season T listed for today between nines picked from members of the Wash- ington squad, and a real battie scheduled here for Saturday against the Boston National leaguers, training for the Bushmen may be said to have reached the sanguinary stage. The line-up selected for the clash | with the Braves at the end of this week, the curtain-raiser for the series of nineteen exhibition games on the program for the capital phalanx, bears out the midwinter announcement of Clark Griffith that his young- sters would be used to as great an extent as possible in these preliminary skirmishes in order to determine by actual test under fire the exact measure of their ability. It is not a kid crew entirely, for the very good reason that satisfac- tory substitutes for at least three positions—first, second and left—are not available, and also probably because a couple of the older heads are cousidered essential to provide the element of balance. Consequently, ! Judge wiil occupy his customary post at the initial sack, Harris will cavort around the keystone station and Goslin wiil roam about the sun garden.

BENTON WILL PLAY BALL, JUDGE LANDIS DECLARES The visiting contingent of scribes is somewhat concerned over the fact| that notwithstanding the spacious new grandstand and splendjd dressing quarters for players no place has been provided for them to do their work when the games get under way.

Minn., March 14 —Walter Hoover, world sculling champion, who has wired Paul V. Costello, ac- cepting the latter's challenge for a titular race, probably will request that the event be contested here early next summer, Phil H. Moore, chairman of the rowing committee of the Duluth Boat Club, said today. While Hoover, as holder of the Philadelphia gold challenge cup, em- blematic of the world sculling cham- plonship, is entitled to sugmest the the site for the race, it is under- stood here that the cup committee, consisting of prominent Philadel- phlans actually names the course. TTherefore the local club will make no plans for the race pending word from those officials. Moore anticipates that Hilton- Bel- yea of St. Johns, N. B., will challenge Hoover and participate in the pro- posed race. NEW HAVEN GETS HYMAN.

Of the pitchers on the roll the future will tell more. It is not difficult to see when a team has fielders. The pitchers, however, developed much more slowly because their arms must be favored. The_ weather conditions at Augusta have been such that Cobb has not been slow in pushing some of his pitchers, Johnson, for instance, who was one of the big purchases from Portland, and who was unable to play much in 1922 because of an early injury, reported | looking like a race horse.
