A certain roiltop desk in a cer- tain office in one of Seattle's tall structures was closed carefully one day last week, and that night a }young man rolled into a Pullman | bunk on an overland limited. It marked the exit of William H. Brinker, attorney-at-law, and sig: naled the re-entry of Dode Brinker, athiete. Dode will be with Charley Dooin and his Philadelphia Nationals this year—that is, if he is good enough ind if he f he will be in Bob Brown's mn Brown sold Brinker, he deal with Horace Fogel to ct that the Vancouver club would have first call on Dode if he failed to deliver. Dode would rath er cavort in the Brown pasture, anyhow, and it was with serious misgivings that he boarded the bumpers for the Kast. But when a ball player is sold, he's sold, and he goes where he has to, and not yhere he wants to. Baseball isn't the only athletic pastime where Dode Brinker shines. In football he is just the same class. He was a star on the varsity team |for years, and a member of the all- atar squad that lost to the Multno- mah ¢lub on Christmas and New | Year's day. He posed for the above pieture before the New Y: '® game. - Classy Outfield for Brown If Dode should happen to drift back to the Northwestern league, Bob Brown is going to have one grand outfield, Kippert in left and Brinker in center would be a dandy pair, and if this young Demaggio can beat Charley Swain to the third | position, he has class to burn, Chances are that’s about the way the Vancouver outfield will look about the first of June. Northwest fans never quite un- derstood the deal Bob Brown slip- | ped over on Joe Cohn in the Kippert sale. When Foxy Bob sold Brinker to the Philadelphia club, he had President Fogel buy Ed Kippert |from the Spokane club. Philadel- phia sold Kippert to Vancouver the next day. It is no disparagement to Dode to say that he is no better than |Kippert, but he brought Bob twice the money the Spokane. fielder cost him, so it was good finance for Brown, Cohn’s Queer Deal, Brown gays that Cohn received only a little over the draft price for his man, and of course it is a cer tainty Kippert would have been drafted, Yet had Cohn allowed the draft to go through, he could have had first chance at Kippert if he failed to make good. About that time Cohn was awfully sweet on Melchotr, but Kippert can play rings around the former San Fraucisco Seal, and every fan in Spokane knows it. DODE BRINKER GOES EAST, BUT HE BROWN WILL HAVE GREAT OUTFIELD IF HE DOES Welcome to our city! Jack Barry, Mra. Barry and Jack, fr. have arrived, They blew in on the steamship Governor last night. and are dom- foiled at the Savoy hotel President Dugdale met Jack at the wharf, and after the travelers had partaken of @ substantial re and the wife and son were made comfy, Jack and Dug repaired to a secluded dormer and parried conversation for many hours--until }tong past midnight, in fact |. Jack is pining for action, and today will be at the ball park do ling 4 tittle preliminary work and getting ready for the big grind Jack has requested ali the play- jers sticking around to be on hand, | but, of course, there are very few ot them in town now. They will begin stringing in pretty fast, though, during the next few days, and inside the week the tratning Jeamp will be going full blast Barry says he isn't worrying a bit over the material at hand except in the catching department. He sa the pitching staff in going to be K. ditto the out and infield. The catching end may be all right too. Especially so if Wally is as good ae Dug te sure he will be. Also Bort Whaling #ill prob- ably be back, and Danny Shea may ghange his mind and decide to re | port. About Working Pitchers Much of Connie Mack's success has been attributed to the P| manner in which he selects his! pitchers, always picking the man who is most successful against cor tain teams regardless of whether it is hie turn or not. Incidentally, | Mack never wastes one of his best pitchers if he is up against a hard proposition, preferring to take « |chance with one of bis lesser lights on such occasion Griffith, like Mack, does not be- | eve in working his pitchers in reg- jular tarn—that is, if he has pitchers who are better agninst one team [than another, Of course, if the on- tire batch is mediocre it matters not in what rotation they are worked. A pitcher like Walter Johnson is labout as effective against one team s another and in bis case it Is pol- jcy to give him, say, three days’ rest between games of what} team he is to go up against, but there are others. w! when prop erly handled in this respect, will be more successful, LINCOLN MIDGET DIES" Fred Vaux, star thidget athlete at | Lincoln, passed away at his home, N. 38th at. and Corliss av., yester- |day morning. He was ill for about two weeks and was finally over come by spinal meningitis and brain fever. He was very well liked by the Lincolnites and all express their sympathy to the bereaved family, President Oug has placed the season tickets on sale, The price of tickets this year is $30, instead of $20. The raise is due to the fact that there will be twice as many games played here this season. Last year there were 85 games played in Beattie, whereas there will be 160 this season.

Up in Vancouver the sports say Chet McIntyre, the pride of the Canadian town, could have taken the light-heavy wrestling crown from John Berg had he done as he should. After more or less steaming in 4 Turkish bath, Berg appeared weighing a pound and a balf over weight, and after golng back for another siege he was still a pound and 4& quarter over. Mae didn’t demand the forfelt, and very magnani- mously let John come in over weight. As is well known, the men strug: sled three hours ‘to a draw, but the Vancouver sports have it all fig. ured out that had Chet forced Berg to steam off that extra pound and & quarter, he could have won the match.
