Boston, March 3.—With only a few days remaining before the ad- vance guard of the Red Sox and the Braves start South, neither Boston team has all of its first string play- signed. The Braves are said to ! ve rounded up all their battery men with one exception, but neither the outfield nor the infield is thought to be complete. Of the Red Sox, Captain Harry Hooper is said to be holding out for an increase in saiary, Stuffy MecInnis is said to have ased for more than his contract called for, and Derrill Pratt, obtained from New York, as pros- pective second baseman, is still tied up to a contract with the University of Michigan as coach. The management of both loecal teams this year decided on a policy of withholding information regarding contract negotiations and it will not be possible to make an actual count | of noses until the players are gathered the training camps.
