BOWLING NOTES.
Ed Creppon member of the Lone Star
team broke the new alley's record cor-
ing 84 pins.
Five victories and one defeat Is Ue rec-
ord of the Lone 8 tar club Just four
months old today.
Alex Neuthard wound up the tsat two
frames of the fourth game Sunday Bight
like this: 0 0 .
That old veteran Dan Bmeaton wis
not In his usual form Swday; ZZ1 la not
a practice game for him.
How about that ten-men go between
Lone Star and BrunnerT (Malsby's men
are ready. Make a move. Frits.
Has It occurred to yon that John Blaa
and Sam Carothers are putting up about
the best games of their career? They are
a steady pair.
The Turners are more pur.ctual at prac-
tice than any other club In the league.
All Bixyof their alleys are occupied on
Tuesday nights.
Benslger rooted CariflVuhe Into defeat-
ing his own pals the Turners. By the
way everyone of that Carlsruhe Sunday
team Is a Turner.
It will be a close game between Carls-
ruhe No. 1 and Magnolia No. 1 They
are doing some fine bowling both Indi-
vidually and collectively.
Captain Ooolsby tif the Lone Stars and
Captain F. 8tech of the B runners have
arranged for a ten -men team supper
mntrh of 100 frames GO on each club's
alleys losers to bear all expenses.
Don't blame Neumann. Tou know a
man Is "hard hit" when he risks his Ufa
at his age In learning how to skate.
Knrtx has naasea tn paintui stage nn
skating) and he sympathises with "Mule."
At the end of forty frames 8unday night
the "Big Five" needed 28S to make a
clean 1300. Amid lusty rooting and hard
luck they managed to accumulate 247. to-
taling 1261.
Many bowlers take a tittle practice
each day on the Lone Star alley a They
are renriy at hand and a thirty-minute
set-to with the balls and pins has settled
m n y a hu rrled 1 y ea t en 16-cen t dinner.
Every imie du neips.
There Is talk of legislation against the
loft' ball at the next State league meet
ing. Mr. Smeaton says he thinks It will
have to go. "'Loiters who come readily
to our mind are Neuthard Volgt Moy
Goolnby. Roberts. Carothers and at times
Leopold and Blau.
The success of th Lone Star team In Its
recent matches speaks well for Its cap-
tain and match maker. Ooolsby enjoy
the respect and confidence of his men
and never once has the charge of partial-
ity In the selection of a team been placed
(MTHlnut him. Mr. Sam's advice has been
strictly adhered to and the results are
well known.
Nine bowlers out of ten on trying for
an Indiana take the left corner pin first.
Leopold and Merlina are two exceptions.
Merlina admits the right pin Is the hard-
est but says a man is more likely to miss
with Ms last ball and therefore takes the
hard pin first. If he misses he shoots the
last tall at the same pin on the ground
that he will overcome the defeat in the
llrst miss ami get the practice at the
hard pin. Samsnle Is always right.
There was a large crowd of spectators
at the Sunday game of the Harris County
Rcwtlns leasnje. held at Mr Jones' altera
on te HarrUburg road. That place seems
like home and If you don t en)oy yourself
ikere with the "BI Five" and the "little
fle" and he W proprietor there is some
thing wrwng with you Internally. Th
a)eys are perfect and In the way of rev
freahments you can get anything fross)
chewing gum up t a turkey dinner.
Don't think It Is out of town; the town lar
out of It. His wagonette transfer from
the oar line Ispunctual and comfortably.
Mr Jones deserves great credit for the
Interest he hastaken tn bowling and m
aid be has loai to lu success.

AT THE RED CAMP.
Hanlon Has a Good Bunch of
Material.
(Houston Post Special.)
slARLIN Texas March IS. It will be
Interesting to watch the work of BUI
Rlnchman on the Infield when he get
sn opportunity to play on a good dia-
mond. Ever alnce the Red arrived In
Texa Manager Hanlon ha had the big
tellow working at second base on the
Colts' team. The rough diamond at Mar-
lln offered him no good opportunltlea to
how Just what material there I In him
o far a perfect fielding Is concerned
for It also placed a handicap on such star
ss Hugglna and Corcoran- After the team
ha been at Ban Antonio for a few days
and In subsequent games on the Texas
circuit It Is expected thst Hlnchman
real value a an Inflelder will be deter-
mined and then Manager Hanlon will de-
cide whether the bulky Quaker shall go
tn for the right field position or become a
candidate for an Infield Job.
"Hlnchman Is fast enough on Ills feet
for an Inflelder." said Hanlon "and he
appears to have a good arm. How he'll
handle balls when they begin bounding
Eroperly for him remains to be seen. He
as the reputation gained In the outlaw
league last season of being equally clever
In the outfield and the infield. As we
have more outfielders than we need and
no Inflelders to spare I'll see If we can't
make an Inflelder of Big Bill. The meta-
morphosis has been made before and
there Is no reason why a similar evolu-
tion should not be worked In this case.
No man on the Cincinnati team Is
training more faithfully than Pitcher Jack
Harper whom a majority of the fan
never expected to see In a Red uniform
this year. Harper shared the opinion of
the fans for when he left Cincinnati for
bl home in Oil City last fall he made
the remark that when he returned to the
Queen City It would be with some team
other than the Reds. "I'm through here"
remarked Harper at the time "Some of
ths people don't want me and for that
reason It will be a wise move for all con-
cerned If President Herrmann trades ms
to some other club."
But when Ned Hanlon took charge of
the club he at once decided that he want
ed Harper for his pitching staff. He felt
that he could make a star of the Oil City
boy and decided to try hla hand at the
experiment this spring. And so Harper
remained with the Red and now he
lad of It.
"So far as the management was con-
cerned 1 was never treated better in my
life than 1 have been In Cincinnati" said
Harper. "The confidence that Manager
Hanlon has shown In me has given me
fresh ambition and I'll be there with the
goods this year. I am working harder
than ever I did In my life this spring snd
when the gong sounds for the first gam
I'll be there ready to take my regular
turn In the box. Remember the good
season ws had In 1SW47 Well. 10 will
be at least as good. If not better." And
Harper looks and acts as though he would
have no trouble msklng good his boast.
Manager Hanlon of the Cincinnati team
continues to take a deep interest In the
work of Carl Druhot who come from
Belling ham. Wash. "That boy la going
to be a star some day" said Hanlon. "and
the day isn't far off. Ha handle hlm-
sj( Ilka a ball player all ovsr. Watch
his work In ths box. He works fast and
accurately. Toe fact that he has bssa
hit hard In a few of his games so far
signifies nothing. Hs works properly snd
It would not surprise m to see him de-
relop Into an excellent pitcher. However
pitching 1 not his only accomplishment.
He can field beautifully and when It
comes ts hltttng the ball he stings It on
the nose with the best of them. 1 believe
he could be developed Into a star out-
fielder If hs should fall as a pltchsr. I
hav not yet made up my mind what I'll
do with him. It will take a week or ten
days for him to get working properly and
thea It will be time enough to consldsr
hi future. But whatever I may be com-
pelled to do with him. you can rely upon
it thst be is a youngster who Is bound to
stick" In fsst oompany sooner or later. H
I a natural ball player and there are not
o many of that caliber running around
to make them common." Druhot I work-
ing a hard a any other member of ths
team and I being encouraged In every
way by Manager Hanlon.
"I do not look for as great a use of ths
spit ball thl Mason as In the past." re-
marked Captain Kelley of the Reds ths
other day. "Pitcher are beginning to
find out that they can do as good work tn
the long run with legitimate delivery as
they can with the spit ball. Fielder hav
been objecting to the spit ball ever sines
Its Inception because of the fact that
the salivated sphere often caused them
to make wild throws thereby putting s
larger handicap on the team than the
peculiar delivery gave them advantage.
The fate of the New York Americana
who lost the championship season before
last through s wild throw due to the ball
being slippery from saliva has been a
warning to spit ball users ever since.
Last year ths spit ball was not used ss
much as t he year before and I confi-
dently look for even more Infrequent use
of It this year." Ewlng. Overall and Har
per of the Reds are experts at using the
spit bell.' but all declare fast they will

"Tf I can't be a high class player. TU

who is fighting It out with Mike Mowrey
for the position of third baseman of ths
Cincinnati team. "I am a carpenter by
trade and hav decided that it la even
wiser to be sn architect with no union
laws to hamper you. For thst reason I
hav taken up the study of architecture
and mechanical engineering so that If 1

years to come. 1 am getting full of the

SOME DOPE
On the Coming League Meeting
at San Antonio.
(From the San Antonio Express.)
Ths meeting of the i South Texss
league which will be held In this city
next Sunday pursuant to ths call of
President Robbie will be one of a High-
ly Important nature. The pas question
will be taken up snd settled for the sea-
son the schedule will practically be
changed and Dr. Robbie will be heard
from on the subject of umpires and their
duties. Whst Is regarded as havltt: here-
tofore been an evil or rather the abuM
of a privilege In ths nass question will
be conMrvstlvely handled by the league.
Passes In reasonable number and con-
sistent with good bustneM prlncliees will
lie Issued but they will all pas through
the president' hand.
In addition to tnese all the team In the
league will have the privilege of issuing
as msny psss books ss they wish but
tickets of this character will represent
129 cents Irf money and will be charged
to the Issuing team.
It has developed within the past few
day that the schedule adopted at a re-
cent meeting of the league will be Inade-
quate because of Inability to make proper
railroad connections for Lake Charles.
To rectify this oversight s schedule prac
tltcally entirely new will have to be
worked out.
President Robbie st the meeting Sunday
will read a communication to tne direc-
tors which he has addressed to the um-
pires of the league. The oommunlcstlon
will deal with the duties and conduct of
the umpire In a generic manner. It will
tlalnly Indicate the Intention of the pres-
cient to firmly support ths umpires on
every propoeltlon.
Speaking of umpire la remindful that
President Robbie ha not yet announced
