Boston, June 24—Jack Barry, for- mer manager of the Boston American league baseball team, and his former teammates, Chick Shorten and Ernie Shore, have given up their berths at the Boston navy yard preparatory to' Excursion to Ne entering the school for ensigns at Cambridge, it was learned today. Th2 trio are undergoing preliminary train- ing at the naval camp at Wakefield Ashland Schedule. Manager Carpenter of .the Ashland club announces his schedule for the next féw weeks as follows: June 30—Fort Terry at Jewett City. July 4—Putnam at Jewett City, July 14—Putnam at Putnam. July 28—TU, S. Marine Corps at Jew- ett City. The Fort Terry team that plays on Ashland park this week is ranked as one of the fastest service teams and is composed. almost entirely of leaguers, including Sam Rice, of the Washington Senators, who will pitch. Last week e, on a five day furlough, played with Washington and was the sénsa- tion of every game. Ashland, having won nine games and lost but one, is playing a fast game of ball ‘and Sunday’s game will undoubtedly be a battle royal? The largest crowd of the season is expett- ed to be on hand, as the Fort Terry team is a good drawing card, being consistent winners and playing a su- perb game. Nearly one hundred major league | players are now either in the army, or in the navy. It is fitting that Ameri- ca's national pastime should be well represented in America’s fighting army.
