HIVEUYTIIING i set for a ball same at the Athletics' field thN afternoon. '
"L"' The rcjrulars nrfd tho Yanlgnni will engage in nnother deadly duel for the
.championship of Lake Ohnrles. nnd thN meani an awful lot in theso parts.
Yesterday there was no game for two very good rea'ouo. First, the weather i
was entirely too cold, nnd second, no game hud heen scheduled. If there were
any other reasons Connie Kept them to himself, which menn he maintained a
discreet silence.
"Still, we fhotild worry about cold weather," aid the shivering schemer
with a smile. "The bojs have hern working pretty hard for neurly two weeks '
nnd it is time to give them n vacation. Their arms arc getting sore nnd yes- t
tcrday's layoff will do them good. We have ninny exhibition gumes scheduled !
and the Iobs of one or two now means nothing."
The noble athletes were out at the ball park bright and early in the morn
ing, going through exercises characteristic of all training camp-. They tossed I
tho. ball around, played iu the bunting game, ran around the park and did every- '
thing which would get the soreness out of their muscles.
AFTER an hour and a half Connie chased them in, thus saving than
i
for the afternoon workout.
Running Around liases Is No Fun
A PTKU lunch the cold northern winds died down and the weather became
" slightly wanner. This meant more hard work and the bojs had a strenuous
time of it. All of the pitchers were out warming up, keeping the four catchers
on tho jump. Then there was batting practice with Gibson, l'icrson, Ulgboc nnd
Grevcll performing on the mound.
After this Connie ordered his hired hands to practice bunting, and this took
up most of the afternoou. All the batter has to do in this game is bunt the ball
and then run around the bases. I'y the time he has recovered from the ill effects
of the personally conducted tour it is bis turn to bat ngain, and the same stunt
must be done all over again. i
This is one of Connie's favorite excretes at tin's time of the jrnr, anil it
certainly gets the plners in condition. Seven or eight trips around tho bases'
are enough to get any man in shape. iC lie can stand the strain.

Chicago Cub Player Wires
That He Will Fight in
Court to Get Back Into
the Majors
QJ03IB time ago it was announced that
Jp three major league baseball players
had been blacklisted, but their names
were not made public by ho National
Commission nor by their respective
clubs. That one" of the players was Lee
Magcc, of the Chicago .Cubs, was not
known until the following telegram Mas
received this morning from the plnycr
hmisflf: ,
"Tho manager of the Chicago Cubs
has not ndvlsed me tlint he did not want
mo as n member of his team this year.
Neither he nor any one else has ever
accused me of improper betting upon
games, and nt no time in my baseball
career have I been accused of Indif

lire I have given my best efforts, nud I
shnll continue to do so in tho future.
"I hnvo in my possession evidence

"On December 1, 11)10. I received a

contained in your contract of 1011). A
formal contract will be mailed to you In

"After this notice to mo that the Cubs
wanted my services during 1020, owners
of other teams agreed that I must be
released unconditionally, nnd the Cubs
were compelled to submit.

Odd Bnll Player
Mageo is an odd ball player. In Si.
Louis they named him "Flash," and
later they called him a grand stiiinlcr.
If he was a grand-stnnder lie was n
game one. During the fag Vnd of the
1013 season, witli the Cardinals whiffing
the dust of half n dozen other clubs, the
funs, however unaccountably, connected
Magcc somehow with tho debacle. The

than one rinn who might otherwise have
been able to give something like hh
normal ublllty to his ball club.
Mugec met tho onslaught character
istically . He refused to budge an Inch
physically or mentally. lie fought back
with the blcachcrites and dared them
singly or collectively to "meet him
nftcr the game." These nre stock Unci
to the ball player, but Mageo differed
from most diamond athletes in that he
meant them.
One day after a particularly luitcr
nblo ufternoon the Cards were playing
the Cubs in which the fans had blamed
everything upon him. Magcc had occa
sion to catch a fly ball that came hli
way. There were runners ou bases.
Imagine, then, the sensation created
when Mugec reached into the air and
used but ono hand to glove the ball,
He held it. Then he shook it defiantly
ut the bleachers.

Steel League this season l'lltt waa a mem
er of the 101S team comlne hera from the
Dodgers, to whom he returned In 1S1U, and
then went to New Orleans. Ham Agnew, the
ili- backstop with Clarke Or fftth'. -Washington
team last year, is spoken of M the
gnajLger ot tut IvOuauou ieui
lecn set back a dozen times. Ktill Coach
Reynolds says constituents of the team
arc not discouraged with the season's
showing, and each of the players Is
oIng to bo rewarded with miniature gold
basketballs.
Not So Ilal
"The record of the team isn't so bad
when it is considered thnt the team hns
been improving in every game," baid
Mr. Reynolds today.
"At the beginning of the season the
quintet was a green one. There was
no one around whom n team might be
built. Captain Dan Linaugh seemed
the best bet, with Jimmy Miillin, the
frcshmun star, a likely prospect. 1)1
Fllippo. nt guard, posse.ssed little
knowledge of the game, while Doyle, ut
center, although u member of lust yenr's
team, could not be classed as an ex
perienced player.
"Blake, the running male of Mulliu,
hns developed into one of the cleverest
players on the icam. as a passer lie
is accurate, and on the defense ranks
next to Linaugh. Although lie leads his
team in scoring, individual plaing is
unknown to him. Although "Johnny"
Doyle has proved himself a hard and
willing worker, tins position ncvertne-
remiiius tnc weakest on tne team.
Of these five regulars. Captain
Danny' Linaugh will be tho ouly one
lost to the team uy graduation. IJl
Filippo has developed considerably and
will form the nucleus of next year's
team. Mullin is a sophomore and will
represent the school for the next two
seasons.
"Captain Linaugh is the real life of
tho team, und it is is his fighting
spirit, coupled with Blake's speed, thai
has kept the team in the running. From
his play in the C. II. K. L. 'Danny' is
considered thu best and fustest guard
in the circuit. As a floor mun and de
fensive player, ho has no peer in the
leuBiie.
Only Two Subs
"The team carried only two bubstl
tutes McIIenry und Woods. McIIenry
is n sophomore unu tips inc hrani at
scarcely ii pounus. i-uu is mo last
est man on tho team und one of the cool
est plniers. Ills coolness accounted
for both of West Catholic's League
victories. From present indications both
Hlaltc nnd Mullin will huve no easy task
In keeping this youngster on the side
lines next season.
"Jimmy Woods, the football star, is
likewise a bundle ol speed and seems
to be the one destined to fill Cuptulu
Tlnaugh'8 shoes next season. With
this crowd of youngsters buck next
year, West Catholic ought to muke u
strong bid for championship honors.
"Clean pluy was the feature of nil of
West Cttthollo's encounters this season,
nnd not even in the face of detent llil
