NEW BRITAIN, CONNECTICUT, 'MONDAY, APRIL 6, 1914, YALE EXPECTS 10 CLEAN P SOUTH " Starts Wednesday Wilh Big M- Gious of Velerans on Sqaad. New. Haven, April 6.—The Yale Haven. on Wednesday afternoon for the annual southern trip during the Faster recess. The team will return to New Haven April 16. The sched- Hle.of games to be played on the trip Is as follows: April 9, Norfolk Base- Ball club, at Norfolk; April 10, Mt. Et. Joseph's college, at Norfolk; April 11, Unlversity of -Virginia, at Nors folk; April 13, University of Virginia, at Charlottesville; April 14, Catholic university, at Norfolk. The opening game of the season will be played with - Columbia on i { | | | | varsity baseball -team will leave New‘ i | | | | i | 8 ’Eaiést, Best and Most Accurate Sporting New;- | Real in New Haven | April 22, ! It will be noted that this scheduls omits the University of Georgetown, which team Yale has for many years | met during the Easter vacation. The schedule was arranged this vear sc | that the men would not do so much | traveling as in former vears and also | \n the hope that the team will find better weather conditions at Norfolk ~than anywhere else. , Thus far the team has scarcely been’ out of the cage, Two weeks ago the players only got onto the diamond for two | days, and last week they also lost about half of the week for two days, and this week they also lost about " half of the week on account of bad weather. Coach Quinby expects to use the trip to Norfolk as the first real outdoor practige of the season, and hopes while there to get the team in condition for the opening games here'in New Haven.; ! Captain Blossom has selected twen- | . tv players for the southern trip. The list is as follows: W. .Hunter, Shear, Mudge, Gile, Brown, R. Stevens, Way, Hendy, Hovel, Swinart, Cornish, | Harpham, Loman, Blossom, Goodell, | Reilly, Falsey, Hanes, Vaughn, L. Mid- | dlebrook. Hesd Coach Quinby will | take with him Walter Mace as trainer. Yale has'not had such a team of | veterans on the dlamond.in years. Of | last year’s téam only Ridell, at first base; ‘Scofiéld, at left field, and Bur- |- dette, behind the bat, have been lost. “* As Hunter, who was Burdette's rival for catcher last seasén, is still in col- lege and as many considered Hunter a better man at backstop last season than 'Burdette was, this loss cannot be termed a serious one. WRidell, at first base, and Scofleld in the outfield will, of course,” be missed. And at i i | ¥ - bresent there are no men in sight to | ¥ take ‘their places, -'All the other po- sitions on the figld, however, are filled by veterans, Swihart, captain of the basketball team, is’ just at present the leading candidate for first. base. Hoover, of last year's freshman team, is making a fight for this position, but has not been selected for the southern trip, “ Just before the scarlet fever epidemic broke out at. Yale, Pumpelly was - brought in from.the outfield and put on the first base.” He was doing good work at this position, and may finally land in this place. Just at present Pumpelly is in his home at Owego, N. Y., but there seems to be a good chance that he will-recover from the mild attack - of. scarlet. fever, from Wwhich he suffered, in time to join the « team in New York, on April 8. First base seems to lie between Pumpelly and Swihart, with the ¢hances prob- ably in favor. of Pumpelly, owing to his experience on the team last sea-| son, Cornish, wha played second base last year, is again a candidate for this wosition and will undouptedly be first choice at the opening of the season | at least. He will probably have a | rival this year in Harpham, who was making good at this position last sea- son when he injured his knee ana | had to give up the game. i At third base, John Reilly is, of | course, the one only candidate. He ! is as good a man as Yale has had .at third in a long time, and the same ie true of Captain Blossom at short- stop. . SEATON STICKS TO FEI Cannot Be TIn ced Fven to Talk Things Over With Baker. Philadelphia, April 6.—With the arrival of William J. Shettsline, busi- ness manager of the - Phillies, fromy ~Shreveport, La:, the hopes of Jlocal National Leaguers fell in regard to the recapture of Tom Seaton, one of their star hurlers, who jumped to the Federals. Shettsline in spite of reports to the centrary had several opportunities to talk to Seaton at Shreveport, but he | Wvas unable to make his former star see that any advantage would accrue by returning to Philadelphia to talk | over the situation = with Dooin and President Baker of ' Fhillies. *“Yes, I had a number of talks with Seaton,” said Shettsline, | “but I could not make him sce where | he would gain anything by coming | back here, even for a talk with Baker, | They have him pretty well sewed up, | ihere’s no doubt about that. You ! see¢, he can get anything he wants | almost ‘from those people.” Even if we should try to enjoin him and suc- ceed in preventing him from playing with the Federal league he would get | his money and bonus anyway, so he'll stick with them."

New Orleans, April 6.—While the Giants were beating the Pelicans vesterday the Chicago Federals and % semi-professional team were prov- ing a poor counter attraction. The clash for patronage was decidedly in favor of organized ball. There ~was an attendance of about 4,000 at the Giants-New Orleans game, whereas reports of the outpouring at the oth- er battle had it all the way from 300 to 800. However, not much else was expected. The victory for the Giants was cent battles with the minor teams. have been going, won handily and the under classmen had trouble scoring. It was a placid and not interesting fracas, The Pel- icans had it on the Giants in flelding, but were surpassed in other respects. The only excitement, ,which is a strong name for it, was in the latter innings, - when Fletcher and Burns managed to help the Pelicans to runs by booting and muffing. Fletcher's errors were perhaps, because the New York in- thing to do. The only man on the whole team who had an assist exceut Tesreau was Stock, with one.

Angeles 7, BRADLEY SILENT OVER TRIP, Tip Tops’ Manager Off Today Another Secret Journecy, Columbia, S. C., April 8.—Bill Brad- ley, manager of the Brooklyn Federal league team, returned to Columbia vesterday, after a week of .scouting. He said he had nothing to give out regarding his trip, more than to say that he is pretty tired after being on railroad trains for practically the whole seven days he was away, and that in this time he visited several places. It was expected that the Tip Top pilot wéuld have some redhot information to give out upon his re- turn to Celumbus, but such did not come to pass. After spending one day in Meznager Bradley took to.the road zgain this morning. He goes to New Orleans on a flving trip, expecting ta return to Columbia late Wednesday or Thursday. He did not announce the purpose of his visit. Artie Hofman had charge of the club while Manager Bradley was away last week and he will continue to run things during Bradley’'s visit to New UOrleans. Spring training probably will end Thursday, and Friday the squad will leave for Pittsburg, Pa., where the Brooklynites open the season April 13. on camp, SHERIDAN COMING BACK.
