The choice now appears to lic between Mobile and New Orleans. It was the death of H. J. Benson of San Antonio, the man who had been most instrumental in getting major league teams to go to the Lone Star State to train, that resulted in the decision against Texas. That, and the fact that Boston hasn't quite as many Texans on her team as she had last season. Julius Heinemann, who owns the New Orleans club, is semewhat piqued that the New York Yankees deserted \his city to go to Florida. New York has been chafing for two or three years about going back to New Orlenns, though Heinemann didn’t know about it. There are too many attractions in New Orleans be- sides basc ball and while the Yanks prospered in the vears they trained there, they never left that city with- out a declaration by the camp fol- lowers that they were not in the con- dition they should be, Miller Huggins, the Yankee man- ager, is enamored of the Florida climate, which has been unusually 13: Valparaiso, 10. 5 £00d the last two years, and out of | which two championship teams have emerged—the Giants and Washington.
