In Other wortlN, the old jinx U on the job iiRalu. Two weeks aRo prospects were uniiMinlly brlslu. Tin ball club was sailing along beautifully and Colonel Hus ton was rational. Then l'ewster stuck his bean into one Of Jeff rfeffor's fast ones, IMnc llodie took it on the run to attend to some Important business' in Now York, thus depriving the club of a pair of noble uthletes. Aaron Ward, 11 youngster who looked like a world-beater, en tered the retired class ou Wednesday and now the work are all idiot. Ward has nothing but a twisted knee and hould be. able to hobble around in n couple of weeks. Fewster and Ward were the speed merchants on the team, and cverjbody knows how Miller Ilussins is pull In for speed this jenr. lie needed a counle of fast iblokcs to run the bases nnd things like that, but now he must depend ou his last year's outfit.

Hard luck nlwajs has trailed along with the auk A couple of years ago 15111 Donovan had the club in lir-t place, winning lots ot ball games, when Frank (lllhuob tried to catch a ball while resting on his right shoulder at Shlbe Park. He missed the ball, but busted the shoul der thus erasing himself from the picture. Shortly utter -ard Frank liaker collided with a concrete stand, with o ill effects to the stand but cracking a pair of his ribs. That put the anks off their stride and they never ic covered.

Yanks Still After Baker THE result of these recent accidents menus onl one thing Further pressure will be brought to bear on Frank Baker and every effort will bo made to lure the Maryland slugger off the old farm t don 11 uniform for one more jear. Haker told Colonel Huston last month he would try to arrange his nflairs so he could plnj base ball this jear. but nothing else has happened. The big third baseman will receive another delegation in a few day, and if he decides to join the club there will be 8,11 In the meantime, Derril 1'ratt is back at second and Bobby Meusel at third. Meusol, bj the way, has every appearance of a big league star and should not be con idercd out of the running. True, he isn t a hntshed iu fielder as yet, but will improve with uge. However, he is a great hitter and certainly can bust the bulb. He hns Wade longer hits than liabe Ruth and frequently has been mistaken for the famous home-run kink. The Yanks have had some rough sledding on the northward journey, und until es,terduy looked worse in tvery game. Excepting yesterday, they have been com pletely outplayed by IJrooklyn, and the scries now stands 8 to -1 in favor of the Dodgers. Only in yesterday's game did the pitchers do any pitching, the hitters are not bitting and the fielders nre not fielding. Outside of that 'BO fault can be found. w .

Murphy If as Strong for Moore LAST Saturday when the Athletics' second team pulled into Atlanta, after winning fourteen out of eighteen games, we asked' Danny Murphy if an outhful phenoms had been discovered on his club. "Nothing as yet," replied Danny, "but there nre some great possibilities. Young Hobby McCann has been play ing well ut short, hut I fear he needs more experience. McKuew is not n had outfielder, and there is a pitcher who is likely to atop out and surprise every oue when leust exiiccted. "His name is Hoy Mimic, and he looks like u million dollars. He was picked up b Tom Turner, our scout down In Texas, last jear, and didn't report until n couple of weeks ago. He has been down with the flu and is slowly regaining his strength. He surely looks good to me und 1 am anxious to see how he acts in a regular game." Danny had his wish on Wednesdaj. Moore fooled the first-team batters with his left-hnuded slants, and in addition rapped out a double and a homer out of two trips to the platter. He looks like a regular pitcher now. MOOh'E icill fit in nicely cith Vat Mariin and W niter Kinney, the other left-handers, mid thrie, irith l'crry, Anjfor, HnrrU, liigbee, Horn niell unit Kckhnrdt, will give Connie n pietty good fioek of moundsmnt.

It is said the athletes, nlthough they have worked haul, have failed to take off weight and some have gained many additional pounds. Hippo Vnuglin now weighs 230 with his ejes shut. Alexander tips the beam at tlM! nnd Rill Killefer weighs IS", pounds. This will not help the club to an) great extent, as most of the others also have reported large gains. Perhaps the food was good out there and the menu cards received a big play from start to tlnish. Aujwny, it's pretty sad when the two best pitchers nnd the star catcher of the league are qualifying for the fat men's club with the opening of the season less than u week away. TO .U.IA; matters iroise, I' red Meikle hat de veloped a kink in his right arm nnd is on the dvydoek for repairs. Her;oii hns ban in Chicago for tome time and llolloeher's hand still is iceak, THERE seems to he a lot of accidents this jear and the important players arc the victims. Ilarbare, who was slated for one of the infield jobs with the Pirates, has been put out of business for some weeks because of a broken jaw. He was hit by n pitched ball in Shrevoport Wednesday and took the long count. Willi Terry sold to the Cubs and Barbare in the hospital, Mibson's troubles nri- growing. He is sadly in need of lnjiclileis. THE alleged scrap between Charles Stonehnm. owner of the New York Giants, and .lawn Mctlrnw has been settled by correspondence. The pair are said to have fought it out in Cuba last winter and afterward traveled in different directions. Now Stoncham says there was nothing to the report. Mctiraw albo says there wan nothing to it. Therefore there must have been nothing to it. 'Copynoh'. 1030 bv Public Ledger Co.)

Although the weather was wonderful for football or any other wlntrj pastime ' rather than for baseball, the game be- i tween Catholic High and La Siille re sulted in u mighty good contest. De spite the fact that Murphy, of Lit Salle, held the Cutholic batsmen to but four safeties, the latter, aided by thirteen errors by the opposition, was able to come tnroiiRii with a victory. , La Salle took (he lead bj counting In the initial inning, when ,loe White, spiked the rubber after renching first ' on an error, stealing second and third and scoring on Higgins's hit. Two of Catholic's four hits in the third tied the score, nnd then the Purple and Gold, sewed up the game b getting four runs! in the fifth.
