Early this morning the boys were up and about pestering the waiters at their hotel to "get a move on." "For the love of Pete get us some eats, can't you see it's a fine day and we want to get out on that good old diamond again and get a chance to cut loose a bit." echoed a half doaen of the ball tossers. Shortly after nine o'clock the hoys jumped into waiting autos and sped out to the grounds. With a yell they all alighted and raced for the diamond to be the first on the grounds this sea son. Patsy Donovan, the veteran man ager was jubilant over the chance for a real workout. He was not disap pointed for they all worked almost as well as if they had been in training for several weeks. The boys lost little time in getting down to real work this morning, and wore out again this aft ernoon at 2 o'clock. First Game Saturday Manager Donovan will select nine of the best players following Friday's practice for the first game of the training season to be played on the Island grounds Saturday afternoon with Ira Plank's Gettysburg Col-. legians. In order to select a suitable' nine for Saturday's game the hoys will have to go at a fair speed to-day and to-morrow, that is. the rookies, who are anxious for a chance to exhibit their goods before the eagle eye of I Patsy.

She has just added the 500-yard national championship to her list of titles. She recently won the 220-vard championship In a meet in Philadel phia.

Considering that to-day was the first ! day of outdoor practice both the ' "vets" and the "rookies" worked well together. Providing that Friday is clear and warmer more action will be added to the routine practice by the addition of hitting and getting to first, i Much of Friday's practice will be de-' voted to base stealing. DENOUNCES GUARD FOR ARMY LOBBY Chamberlain Asserts It Is Menacing Safety of l\ S. - War in Sight Sfectai to the Telegraph Washington, April 6. With the country upon the brink of serious ( trouble, the national guard organlza-! tions of the country are trying to tie' its hands and prevent it from helping itself if it falls over. This was the charge made by Sena tor Chamberlain, chairman of the committee on military affairs, in the senate. The Senator from Oregon asserted , that the national guard, by demanding the elimination from the army bill I of the section creating a volunteer army, is attempting to dictate to Con- I gress what military policy shall be 1 formulated to safeguard the nation against the possible developments of present international complications. Unless the militia organizations stop 1 their active lobbying, he declared It to be his Intention to move to eliminate 1 them from the proposed system of land defenses. He declared that general military service is the only certain solution of the nation's military problem, and he predicted that the activities of the national guard in attempting to con trol military legislation .will force the adoption of general service sooner than would otherwise be probable. Says Country Is Close to War Senator Chamberlain startled the ■ Senate with the declaration that the! country is close to war. He said that one of the nations now j engaged in the European war was es tablishing colonies upon the eastern coast of South America before the war began. He evidently referred to ■ Germany and German schemes in Colombia. Another nation, he said, has settled colonies upon the west coast of South America. "Is the Monroe doctrine a scrap of i paper, or do we intend to set it up and : maintain it?" he asked. "In order to assert it we must be prepared to maintain it. and to do that we must have an adequate army; and navy," he continued.
