Herzog, Giant Pilot, Also Expert as Airman ™or: i i e v Marlin_Springs, Tex., March 23.— Charley Herzog, crack second base- man and captain of the New York Giants, has gone in for aviation. He is as expert making a flight as he is nabbing a redhot liner when cover- ing the middle station for his team. McGraw says that he has no objec- tion to Herzog taking a flight if he doesn’t take one in a g»me. There have been all kinds of stunts tried by baseball players in training, but it remained for Herzog to try the latest though he was at the time on the roster of the Giants. His stay in camp has been so short that but little chance was afforded of sizing up his work. He played in the Southern league in 1916. ; RAY BEATS OVERTON Illinois Flyer Lowers Colors of Yale Flier in Special Event—Defeated Runner Puts Up Plucky Fight. New York, March 22 —Joie Ray, of the Illinois Athletic club, defeated Johnny Overton, of Yale ,in the games ‘Wanamaker Commercial d; in. . Madison = Square met in e fad. Herzog, it is said by those who have seen him in his machine, has made wonderful strides as an air pilot. McGraw hopes that Herzog will not try to teach any of the rook- ies the art of flying. He also. hopes that Herzog will not try any loop the loops or other feats while in the air, as he cannot well afford to lose Her- zog’s services this season. The ac- companying picture of Herzog along- side his machine was taken at Pen- sacola, Fla. a special race at one mile. The doughty little thoroughbred from the ‘Middle West led his rival over the HIBBARD AGAN CHOSEN CAPTAIN Glver Little Forwand to Lead Baskethall Quintet Next Season Bennett Hibbard, the clever lttle ieader of the New Britain High school basketball quintet for the past sea- son, was again honored by a re-elec- tion as captain for the 1918 season last cvening. Woodford was second cholice and in the absence of Captain Hibbard, he will run the team. Cap- tain. Hibbard is one of the best bas- ketball players developed at the school in several years. Smell in statue, but very fast, he has been the worry of opposing guards throughout the season. He is also a member of the football squad. The outlook for next season is very bright, the team losing but three players through graduation, Kallgren, Robb and Kopf. Between thirty and forty candidates for the baseball team are reporting three times a week for indoor prac- tice in the gymnasium cage. Physi- cal Director Moorhead is handling the boys. The battery candidates are showing very strong, Bradley, Robb and Kopf, having & brand of twisters which is bound to baffle opposing swatsmen during the season. On the receiving end Connolly and Bradbury are the leading candidates, with chances strongly favoring the former. The final basketball game of the season will be held tomorrow after- noon at 4:45 o'clock when Meriden will be the opponents of Captiin Hib- bard’s boys. The locals are par- ticularly anxious to cop this game. Coach Avery has selected the follow- ing players for the game: Hibbard and Kopf, forwards; Sechrest, center: Robb and Kallgren, guards. Physical Director Moorhead will 'tender the ‘boys 'a banquet tomorrow evening at 6:830 o'clock in the South church.
