Sportsmen's Club last night Pete Herman, bantamweight champion of the world, and Knockout Joe O'Donnell of Gloucester, put up a miserable exhibi- tion, and neither deserves any credit for his eight hounds of boxing, O'Donnell in the last three rounds tried to do @ little fighting, but it was not until within a few minutes of the end of the bout that Herman showe! any of his form. Willie Jackson and Ralph Brady of Syracuse put up the best bout of the evening, and the end of the bout found Jackson a winner by u slight marsin. He had Brady cut up considerably about . the mouth.

There was general satisfaction naturally among horsem interested in racing that the season would open as per schedule, for de- lays and legal tangles such as these take a deal out of the enjoyment of an opening day. Something like a thousand horses are stabled at or within easy striking distance of the Bowle track, so that there will be no lack of entries for the meeting. e seven races that make up the oard for the opening day have filled well, Nine horses have been named overnight for the Inaugural Handi- p for three-year-olds and upward seven furl js that will be the feature of Stecher to Wrestle im Brooklyn.

Fullerton. © use talking, boys, we will be compelled to watch those Pirates and Cardinals in the National League this coming season. On top of showing unsuspected latent strength in the infield, these two teams come along in the outfield and rank up so close to the top that a few accidents or sun hits would make them the equals of the Giants, who are the leaders, The Giants, beyond doubt, have the most consistent outfield in the Na- tional, the most punch, the most speed, and in spite of the slump of Kauff show that they are the class. The World's Champion Reds rank| down in third place, due to the un- | == certainty of the left field development | and the rather ragged work of Neale at times, which detracts from his otherwise great ability. Brooklyn has pushed along toward the top, gaining stegdily in outfield strength and, with the discovery of Nels, with competent subs for the outfield, and a lot of hitting power scattered around, are in position to| make trouble. Chicago shows woful lack of punch, and clearly Mitchell cannot rely upon outfield hitting strength to carry his team to a pennant. He will need at least 7 per cent. better pitching than the opposing clubs will show against him to offset the lack of attacking power in hi» outfield In the American Leazue, Detroit and Cleveland, of course, lead the field, chiefly because of the supe: ability of Cobb and Speaker, The two stars raise the outfigld values of their c! high, but Detroit shows more power in the other positions and holds the lead. It will be a considerable surprise to discover that the lowly Washing- ton team achieves third mnk rather) handily in the dope figures, and the more closely one analyzes the Griffith outfield the better it looks. Rice, Roth, Menoskey and Milan afford Griffith a great chance to make eravanes at critical times and cover the weaknesses of individuals. The Old Fox is a wonder at sak: such quick changes when he has the material to work with, and he cer- tainly bas plenty of it in his outfield array. Two of the American League teams have me all in the air because of their delay in announcing the candi- dates who will be chosen as regulars. These are the New York Yankees and the Athletics. I have been compelled to average values of/all the candi- dates in practically every outfield po- sition, and sometimes the average values of two or three players is less than the value of either one. ‘That is, we cannot say that two —one weak jn hitting, another in | as their strong est point.
