March 'So. hrOV never can tell v,hat will happen to n ball club It? studying the advance 'I dope shipped out during the cold, dr.v winter. Karly prognostications mndc with all sincerity usually bo Uooio when the athletes nppcnr In the nrenn and perpetrate performances which cauc even the most somber critics to sit up and pay close intention. And thereby hangs this tnle. which deals exclusive) with the jicunant chances and the lO-'O prospect of the Phillies. Last winter it was possible to get gurgling sissies from the audience when the Phillies ball club wus mentioned. Ou paper, it looked as if Oavvy Cruvath Would bo lucky If his leam finished in Ausut or t-omcthlng like that, lhc dopestcrs agreed it wouW be a hard job to keep the other clubs out of last place, but It could be done. 1'w Phillies were awarded the tun shoes with pearl buttons alopg with the choc polish early in .laniiary. for it was figured it the Phillies couldn't, shine at the head, they could shine at the foot. IJut things have changed, ns they say in many of our best cellars, liowu here In the sunny South, the young gentlemen bossed by Mr. Cravnth arc show ing more stuff than any one dreamed of, and while a critic, even In his wildest moments, will not hand them n jilacc in the first division, it i nln.ost a cinch that komc one else will occupy the dump, dark pot ut the bottom of the ladder. J he Phillies do uot look like a last placv ball club. The signing of Casey Stengel virtually made the outfield. The eccentric athlclo fits in well with Cy Williiimx and Irish Mcuscl. iind the trio should form It strong defensive nnd aggressive set f gardeners. Mcusel has been out on the roast working with the Vernon club because his arm has been troubling him and Cravath thought it best to Keep his star .slugger within reach of his physician, who .has been treating him all winter. Mcutvl says h!n arm is ju4 us strong as ever, and l such is the case, ho should be ouciof the star outfielders of the league this Tear. N VJILL1AM8 also lipoid, especially early in the srasnn. and Stengel W should mate quite a name for hwriclf in the Phils park with that short right field fncr. LeBouncau, the' leading slugger of the Three t League last year, icill be the utility man. Jack Miller Going Good THE infield was a big problem beforo the training trip started. Second and third base had to be filled and no one knew how it wns to be done. Jack Mil ler was purchased from St. I.ouis and is doing iiiorly at the keystone position. The TCterau has lots of speed, knows the game nnd wjll be the best man the Phils have had in that spot since the days of Otto Knube. Third base, however, looked rry sad and forlorn. Manager Cravath decided in the winter that Blackburn would not do. to he sold I.enu to Toronto, llarrv Pcarce then wns tho leading candidate, but the old utility inficlder jumped tin- club for the Oil League, nnd Cravath was left Hat. (Javvy, however, did not worry. He knew he had to develop a good third baseman some time, and started work. He corralled three youngsters Wrightstoue, who plajcd with Idein Chocolate last year: Halph Miller, a kid from Poit Wayne, and Ilcilmnn. the former bat boy and ground keeper in Cincinnati. Wrightstooe and Miller stepped out m frout in the first week, llolh nrc good fielders and show promise of developing into pretty good hitters. In fact, their work was to good that Cravath was satisfied the hot corner wonld be well taken care of. In addition, he has "Stuffy" Stewart, the infielder. who wns sent here b St. Louis in the Stock trade last year, but failed to report. Stuffy looks good, but no one knows what he can do with the bat. When he was in the big league before he played in a few games and amassed the healthy batting average' of .000. This, we tnight add, is something of n record. C.lT.tV DAVY I1AXCROFT. briny about thr best shoitstop in the league, tcill fill that position ami irnrk smoothly irith ,lnek Miller. That keystone combination looks mighty strong ami will be n bear on the defense. ' Ludy as Good as Ever tTUItST base still i a problem, but liawy should worry. He has two very high X. class persons battling for the job in dene l'nulettc. formerly of St. Louis, nnd Fred Luderus. Last winter the wise birds chirped about Ludy washing up and passing out of the act because of old age, but that dope is incorrect. Ludy is just as good as ever, still has his batting eye ami no one would bo surprised to see hiin at the initial statlou. He is too valuable n man to bo kept on the bench. But Paulette also must be considered seriously. (Jeue is n first sackcr par excellence, nnd in addition, is one of the best all-around uthletes iu the garni-. Two years ago he played eery position on the St. Louis club, which means he did some pitching nnd catching. Last year he plucd In tho outfield nnd second base for the Phils, and nv he is at first It is strange that two such good men are trying for one job when players are .cnrc. and that is why Crntnrh is opti mistic, lie knows first bate w ill be well taken enre of There are but three cut hers in camp Walter Trngressor. who was purchased from Bostou last y-ar ; Muik Wheat, of Brooklyn, and Witherow. the btar of the Rockford team last season. Wheat looks like the first string receiver, but Withe row is likeh to come to the frout when Jeast expected. This youngster was the first, gpcond aud third-string catcher for ltockford lat year, lie caught in 1125 games, which is worthy of mention, because Kockford played but J'Jii games. Tra gressor is a seasoned, experienced baikstop, bo the receiving cud of tho club is well taken care of. funny whut a difference oue new ninn makes on n ball club. W hen it looked sad and gloomy for the Phils. I Veil Algernon Cutisej . traded to Boston by t he tiiants last year, had a scrap or something with Stalling-, and lieorge promptly asked waiters on tho sorrel-topped bliuger. Only six clubs claimed him aud Cravnth was lucky on the draw. Jlr strengthens the staff became the faff PLCIL for the folks down here. needs lots of strengthening. Phil Squat! Smallest in South EPPA .ILPTHA KIXKY, who iilinn-t wns trailed to the Cubs ln-t month, is back again, and appear to be dinging m his old tune form. (Jawy tried to dispose of the lanky left-hander, not because he was on tho down grade or any thing like that, but because more pitchers were needed, nnd it wni, figured that Chicago would give three men for him. Now tho deal is all off. Cnusey is on the job and IlUcy also will stay. If he can win for another club he alto can win for the Phils. , ... Lee Meadows should be better thau last year, and Cravnth has hoped that George Smith will come through. Oeorge has been coming for three year, and if he doesn't make good now. he never will. Of the new men, Uav Lingrel, of Mnssillon, Ohio, looks like n very good man. It still is early to judge him, but his work thus far has been high class. He wns recommended by Gene Packard, and it seems us if Gene made a good guess. Mike Cantwell and Bed Wcinert, two kid southpaws, arc getting ahiug nicely, but they will have to improve some to stick on the payroll. The same goes for Walter Betts and Pat Murray. Of course, everything depends on the pitching staff, and there are three who are bouud to make good, two good prospects nnd three who have yet to show they can stnnd the gaff. If Lingrel nnd Smith develop into major league hurlers, tho club will make u good showing in the race. Boy Suunders nlo should he Included in the list. Cravath has the smallest squad in tho South this year, with twenty-eight candidates. There are nine pitchers, nine infitlders, six outfielders and three catchers. Oavvy. however, should be eonsidered a player, us ho will bust into tho line up quite of'teu. He led the league in homo runs last yenr, (.watting twelve, three being in u pinch. But he will devote most of his time to managing, and here's hop lug ho will make good. 7 j 1t7 I'hth. tcith ony hind of pitrhiwi. irill not nrrupy thr cellar this A year.

IE MAKES I AI ICE PALACE Huge Crowd Watches Crack Skaters Perform at 45th and Market Streets ACKSON WALLOPS HEAVY ENG L ISHMAN New Yorker Easily Trims Johnny Shepperd, Alleged Light weight, Who Weighs 146 Lbs. More than DOOO persons nltcnded the Ice Palace, Forty-fifth aud Market streets, last night to witness tho first ico-skating carnival for the benefit of the Beed Street Neighborhood nouse. Tho affair was onn of the most success ful ever held on indoor ico in this city. Leading the program of clnssic ice dancers were Nathaniel AV. Nlles nnd Miss Theresa Weld. This pair made their first appcaranco in public last night nftcr winning tho national ama teur championship in New Y'ork Satur day night for waltzing. Nllcs is rated among tho greatest tennis stars of the country and resides in Boston. Miss Weld is also from Boston. They skated singly and in pnir beforo tho appreciative crowd last night. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Chapman, lead ing flguro skaters ot tho Philadelphia Skating Club, exhibited some poetry of motion ou bkatcs. Charles dn Bergen, who enmo all tho way from St. Moritz to show Phlindclphlans how to fall on tho ice, performed with several difficult glides. Pour couples of the New York Skating Club skntcd thn lancers. Alan Murray, perhaps the most ar tistic individual skater located iu this city, was disappointed, likewise thou sand Jn attendance, when it was an nounced that do Bergen objected to Murray giving an exhibition. Several women of the committee exercised their influence without effect on tho manage ment to permit tho Pacific coaster to perform. Aside from tho talent on hand there were several hundred skaters of Fair mount Park production who drifted into the gayety of tho public performers. 0. Stanley Bogers obliged with nh indi vidual exhibition. Joseph Kasx1, who has been giving Bay Jack soma close races in tho nuar- ter milo and distance events, came through last night over a small and slow field by winning tho -1-10 in the time of 41 seconds. Jack did not compete. Jack was beaten by Bomkey in tho half mile in the time of 1 minuto 31 seconds. The hockny match, which was the final event of tho program, and which was played in short periods, resulted in a victory for Quaker City over a picked team of local stars. GIRARD F. C.

JAF11S A little disadvantage like twelve and one-half pounds didn't btop Willie Jackson from pumping out nil orts of socks nnd slams to tho alleged Kuglish lightweight. Johnny Shepperd, nt the Olympia Club last night. Jackson re fused to administer the walloping to the Briton until an announcement was made to the effect that Shepperd had weighed 1-10 pounds, while tho New Yorker tipped the beam nt 133. Despite Shoppojd'a exceedingly big advantage in weight, he failed to show any real class against the smaller man. Jackson was till over Shepperd, scoring with his dangerous right cross, right wallops to the body nnd left hooks to the jaw. Hhcpnerd proved one thing, and that was thnt he had no tin jaw. A number of times Jackson clipped the Knglibhman flush on the chin, stagger ing and shaking him up, but at no time did Johnny go down for a count. Jackson deserved two knockdowns in the first round, although Shepperd did not go down hard. Shortly after the start of the bout a right-hander made his kneo lilt the canvas, und later Shep perd was forced to drop both hands to the mat iu order to save himtelf from going down. In tho last two rounds Shepperd brought into play a good right cross, but Johnny didn't land this blow very often. Outside of being a tough fellow Shep perd failed to display nuy class more than that of an ordinary boxer. Three Britishers were on tho Olym pia program, and besides Kheppard, Tommy Holt also went down to defeat. Bobby Doyle, of New York, socked Holt for a silk shirt in the second round, a left hook spilling the Britisher for the full count. Bddio IDirvcy, another Englishman, outpointed Jimmy Austin, thus mnklng the bcore 2 to 1 iu favor of Uncle Sam over Johnny Bull. Mike Burns dealt out a terrific trouncing to Pntsv Conwnv nnd Johnny Perry drew with npy Ennis. Erie A. A. Organizes The Erlo A. A . of Erie Ainui M. K. Church, ha orranlztd for th oomlnc eta. ton.

Large public buildings, plants, offices end churches all over the nation enjoy the better, air condi tions Sturtevant apparatus makes pos sible. Architects and engineers have for years known that the longer life and more reliable operation of Sturtevant Ventilating Equipment are what make a Sturtevant installation the better investment. Sixty years experience in putting air to work is built into every Sturtevant product and is behind every Sturtevant recommendation. No matter what type of building is to be ventilated, Sturtevant machinery can supply it with clean air in the most economical andeffi dent manner. The Multivane Fan was developed by Sturtevant especially for ventilating work. Each blade has cup-shaped de pressions which grip the air and prevent it from slipping along the blade to the side of the wheel opposite the inlet.) This insures evenly proportioned pres, sure along Jie entire blade and makes st higher efficiency possible.
