Mike Donlin, once fa- mous National leaguer, declared re- cently that major league ball players are the softest kind of picking for the vily tongued gents who promote oil- less oil ¢ompanies. Mike may have Ibeen stretching it a point of two, but mony given under eath and while at- tended by local counsel representing you, denied each and every charge Opportunity was, given hisscounsel for full cross- examination of" each witness and to furnish such testimony as he desired your letter of March 26, 1920, to me, | Baseball fans will never forget the manner in which Mike Doolin, famous shortstop with the Phillies for many seasons, was “taken over” by a jitney concern in Atlantic City. And now, the fans are witnessing the sad sight of Roger Bresnahan, former. Giant catcher, losing his earthly belongings in the Toledo club of the American as- sociation. ’ Doolin’s loss was a sad one and it was also a severe blow to the former star, but Mike never pefmitted the re- verse to bother him, bidding his mon- ey goodbye when it = became certain that the jitmey concern was a fake pure and simple, Roger Bresnahan had a lusty bank account when he went to Toledo. He believed he would do better to own a minor league club than to occupy a lucrative position'as a player on a ma- jor league team. And things looked good for Roger in the Ohio city when he Degan his cperations there. Manager Pat Moran of the Cinein- n:ltl club, says ball piayers who are smart in the national pastime are so eager to invest their spare money they do not exercise as much judgment in selecting an investment as they do in selecting a job in baseball, and there- fore they fall easy prey to fhe sharks who are ever on the alert for victims with a bank roll. As a result of Mike Duolin's complaint, the promoter of the jitney scheme drew a long’term in prison, but at the last moment Mike wealkened and would have been glad had the sharper been acquitted. “On_all the testimony then avail- “You now bring up thees affidayits sons who made them and apparently if you claim the affidavits are true now, they were true in 1919, when the case was tried; and the defense made affidavits were true. . publicly warned the players in ational league that betting hat wurning has been disregarded.

J., March 31.—Vermont and Princeton opened - the baseball season here today with a 15 inning game which was won by the New England team 1 to 0. Both: teams played brilliantly considering the earliness of the season and both twirlers pitched fine ball. In the 15th inning an error by Keyes put Brock of Vermont on first. Conlin advanced him to second on a sacrifice and after McInnis has flled out to Garrity, Har- ROWING SEASON IN EAST WILL OPEN WHEN YALE MEETS PENN. The intercollegiate ' rowing season will be officially opened in the east when Yale meets Penn over the Hen- ley course on the Schuylkill river at Philadelphia next Saturday. And judging from the reports emanating from both institutions it will be an ex- tremely auspicious opening. Both Yale and Penn have had larger squads working out for places in the varsity shell this year than ever before and among these men . are several good oarsmen. Guy Nickalls, who returned to Yale only a short time ago after three years of service in the English army, has been driving his squad hard since he got on the job and he can be counted upon to produce the goods. Nickalls, of course, uses a different system from Wright’s, who coaches Penn’s sailors, but all gystems are aimed in one di- rection only, viz: the producing of a winner so that it makes little differ- ence what ‘system is used. Joe Wright, the veteran oarsman from Canada, is coaching the students at Pennsylvania, which means the Red and Blue can be counted on to make a fine showing in;every event it par- ticipates in this season. However, it wHI be interesting to watch these two crews in aetion next Saturday. The Penn eight will use the long sweep on.a 26 in slide. Yale's stroke .will be shorter with more of the body movement; consequently; it is likely to row a faster stroke. The slide in the Yale boat is only 16 inches in length, which accounts for this style of rowing. e SHIFT IN HARVARD'S VARSITY EIGHT The predicted shift in the Harvard varsity eight took place Tuesday aft- ernoon,. when two members < of the | crew were demotéd, two more had their seats in the boat changed, and two stalwarts from the substitute craft found themselves occupying position's of importance with the regulars.
