PHILANDER JOHNSON. But ah, remorse grows doubly thick When I, as one who often delves In stuff to read, see span and spick Or dusty volumes on the shelves; For though I've read them long ago When late the midnight ofl I burned, They grin at me and seem to know— The borrowed books I've not re- turned. Fielder Jones has at last faund out what the force of habit is. Fielder is a great leader, his material looks pretty good and other things were in his favor. But in the meanwhile look who's giving the Mackmen the tail end grapple! The Giants start West next week | where the “star of empire” is said ta take its way. At any rate, the Giants are getting pretty sick of the Dod- zers, Braves and Phillies, with whom they have been spending most of the spring. “Is Frank Moran afraid to meet Jack Dillon?” inquires a wrought up fight fan. We should say that a man who wasn’t afraid to meet Jack Johnson and Jess Willard should balk at facing even Mr. Dillon. If Moran was willing to tackle a man fifty- eight pounds heavier and five inches taller why should fear enter his heart at facing a man thirty pounds lighter and five inches shorted than himself ? The reasons are very likely more commercial than spiritual, Lucky Bill, Now doth the critic spend his days Swearing that Francis Bacon wrate The bulk of Mr. Shakespeare’s plays; That Bill was not the acting pote; And warking in, around about, ‘With some points fresh and others wilty, Goes on to prove beyond a doubt The Bard of Avon was not gullty. And prove I did not write the stuff! “ The case of the Cleveland Indians is getting serious. You can imagine the discomforture that this club has brought to the White Sox, Tigers and Browns. For several years these clubs have been feed- ing off Cleveland flesh. ‘While excepting hard battles with one another, all three were looking | for one soft spot in the West upon which to light and soathe their wounds. And then, before they were looking, something happened. In place of being the soft spot that would give them all a nice, easy April and early May start, the lowly worm of other years turned and be- zan using its fangs on everything in sight. In place of being the one bum club In the West, Cleveland has been outplaying the other three with a good combination of hard hitting, good fielding and first class pitching. As the bard savs: 'Twas ever thus fram child hours hour; ‘We see our fondest dope dec: ‘We never said a club lacked power, But what is crossed us right away. L. K.

The point we sought to make S that the rule in question doesn’'t stop the more serious offenders against amateurism and that it is a matter of grave doubt that selling supplies should be taken as a side line to pro- fessionalism, ‘We have the word of old Charley Van Loan, the Los Angeles smaitre d’arms, that Eric the Red, better known & Maurice McLoughlin, is well as he ever plaved in his life and is on his way back to the top of the lawn tennis structure again. There are very few who will grudge McLoughlin a triumphal entry into the hall of fame again. We know of return that would be greeted with more extended pleasure from New York Boston ..es e, 010000 Yankees did not have much chance | to beat the Red Sox. The score wa to 0. The playing of the Yankees was perfunctory, but they were re- | duced to that condition by their in- abllity to hit.

Poor pitching and ineffective batting with men on the bases caused Detroit’s downfall. Groom pitched the eight innings for the Browns and was not scored on.
