Evidently the managers are loo bust) to do much experimenting or have been told lo rut doirn expenses. It must be remembered a rookie eats Just as much and irqulrcs as much rail road fare as a seasoned veteran. , Janvrin's Failure to Report Halts Advance GRIFF has a pretty fair ball club this year, but Is likely to get off to a bad start. His team will develop slowly and is not expected to reach its top form until the end of May. That's how it looks now, three weeks before the opening engagement. The infield will be weak until Janvrln Is In the line-up and Davis, the kid shortstop, wins his spurs. The failure of Janvrln to Join the ' blow to Griffith's plans. The former and pneumonia at his home in Boston and now is too weak to do any thing but loaf In the sunshine and regain his strength. He probably will 'not do any practicing until the middle of next month. In the meantime, 'Harotd Shanks has been moved to second and Davis Is playing short. This rookie Is twenty years old, weighs about 13S pounds, bats right ha'nded and handles himself' nicely in the field. In 1917 he played out in Kj$ .

As It appears now, Davis must make good or the ball club Is up against it. He looks good in practice, but it is vastly different wlien the championship games begin. EJ.4X) Janvrln been on the Job Shanks could have been used at " shortstop until Davis gained more experience or whatever he needs. That would have given Washington a strong infield. Willi Judge on first and Foster on third. But that is the only worry Griff has. The rest of Ihc team slacks up well. 4 Return of Rice Makes Outlook Brighter EVERYBODY; Is happy over the return of Sam Rice, the slugging out fielder. Last year Itlce went into the army and Griff almost Jumped off the dock. Sam was missed and his manager believes the club would have finished higher in 1918 had he played all season. Rice is a .300 hitter and very good outfielder. .Clyde Milan is still on the job, which means center field will be ably attended to. Shannon, the twin brother of Red Shannon on the Athletics, at, present is playing In the right garden, but is likely to vacate In favor of Horace Milan or Menosky, who Is on his way home from France. Young Milan Clyde's brother hit .407 In seventeen games In 1916 andr288 in. forty-seven games In 1917. He Is expected to do well this year as an extra outfielder and' pinch hitter. Rice, the two Milar.s, Menosky and Shannon should be able to take care of the outposts and drive in some runs. OAM AQXEW has strengthened the catching corps, and,Uriff is highly pleased with the trade which took hint from the lied Box.

Cal Delaney, Johnny Mealy. Joe Tiplltz, Frankie Daley, Frankle Blown, Jack Itusso, Benny I Kaufman and dozens' of others working out. Six Former Foes It seems strange that Kllbane should happen to find six of his former oppon ents working at the same time. Kllbane twice fought Frankle Daley, battled Benny Kaufman and Happy Davis once nnd recently engaged Mealy and Frankle Brown. Cal Delaney, his present .spar ring partner, Is the slxtn. All six were spanning In different parts of the gym. Kllbane exchanged greetings with all the boys, proved to be very sociable, then excused himself to engage in a lively game of handball. Philadelphia Jawn was kept very active keeping .the boys on the move. He refereed a spirited game of handball between Kllbane and Delaney. Kllbane also walked away with the honors after thirty warm minutes of battle. Herman did his sparring with Jack Lester. The bantam king meets Al Shubert over the twelve round distance before the Peerless A. C. in-Baltimore on Tuesday evening. The champion has been fighting himself back Into cham pionship form.

Mealy saw Kilbane for the first time since he passed out at the Oiymp'a last Monday night. As soon as Mealy spotted the champion at work he walked over and extended his hand. Cheers Mealy "You did well," said Kilbane cheer fully. "Don't let a little thing like a de feat discourage 'you. You can punch pretty well yourself. I can verify that," Then the champion proceeded to show the few onlookers a big black bruise on his right hip, the result of one of Mealy's rights crushing against it in that first round.

ARCHIVES LOSE TWO REGULARS Hill and Bertham Declared Ineligible Shortly Before Start of First Game FRANKFORD WINS, fi.l By PAUL PREP Coach Harry Snyder's hopes of bring ing the Intcrscholastlc Baseball League championship to Northeast this spring were given quite a setback yesterday when it was' announced shortly before the game wjth Frankford began that two members or the nine were Ineligible. The two players to fall by the wayside or somewhere along Lehigh avenue are Nelly Hill, the star outfielder, who for t(ie last two seasons' played a great game for Central High, and Bertham, the most likely looking candidate to try to fill the vacancy left by the gradua tion of "Pep" Young, at first base. Won Regular Positions ' Hill and Bertham practiced with the .Northeast squad for three weeks and had won positions on th vinit.. nv.. They were all primed for the opening game with Frankford. Yesterday after noon, however. Henry Brachhold, ath letic director at Northeast, discovered that Hill was ineligible to represent Northeast for several 'weeks, as he has been attending the Lehigh avenue school but four weeks. The loss ,of Bertham was even more unexpected. Coach Snyder was unable to attend the game yesterday, so turned matters over to Brachhold. Bertham went out to the athletic field, Jumped into ihls suit, took part in the batting snd fielding practice only to be called to one side and told a few minutes be fore starting time that he was ineligi ble. It seems that through a misun derstanding one of the instructors forgot to give Bertham a scholastic standing on' the last report. He will be on the side l.nes until tho next report May j. Travis the Star With these two regulars out of the same game. Acting Coach Brachhold found It necessary to turn to his extra pitchers for assistance. Wilson was shifted lo first base while Hellmlck arftl Partridge went to the outfield. T.iV Herb Travis, the versatile athlete of Frankford, was In fine form and had the Archives missing by a few inches. His fast ball had the Northeast bovs com pletely baffled, as they had been fed onlv slow ones 'In practice. In all Travis fanned fourteen and allowed but four hits, Travis, however, didn't confine all his efforts to pitching. .He took a leading part on the offensive, getting three safe hits, one of which was a home run. Perry and Rejnecke. of Frankford, had two hits, while the Northeast safeties were made by Brundenell. Wilson. Harris and Fartr-ldge. The final score was G to 1, C.C.N.Y.

In his final workout nt St. Augustine he had speed, control and a hop to his fast one from tee to green and vice versa. It Is always a pleasing- thought to know that one of the World's Greatest Institutions is back In mid season form again. It was only a few years ago that Messrs. Ade and Sewell ford organ ized the Willing Ears Company, Ltd., nnd slipped us a few shares of th preferred stock. Unfortunately, war broke out about that time and most of the Willing-Listeners had little time for anything hut war stuff. .... Dt7V as soon as the league of nations is settled one tray or another and the duffers begin to flock back to the anqiant green, the stock In this company should' be well-qigh priceless. Many Are Called But Fciv Quit rpHE dope that Dutch Leonard would retire from baseball In order te devote closer attention to his raisin farm, started a discussion as to th number of hall players who had quit the game while still in their prime. Mike Donlin retired for a year or two back around 1906, but Mik heard the call of the wild again very shortly and reported for work In center field. Frank Baker also gave up the bat for theIioe and plow handle In 1915, but he, too, yielded to the lure of the pastime and the fragrant odor of a Lot of Money and came back in again.
