Good Outfielder

ring will not play third base regularly
for the Athleties during the season.

said Mack, "and I considered him seri-'
ously for the position from the time!
that Baker notified me that he would !
not play again, but I have decided that'
I would not spoil a great outfielder to
make a fair third baseman of him."
This decision leaves the third base
position opeu, for Mack declared he did
not know who would play the difficult
corner when the American League sea
son began. The Athletics have three
candidates for the place—Kopf, Bos
tick and McConnell.

"SNIPER" CAUGHT FIGHT i
Jack Johnson Gets Wise and Wants
Pictures Stopped
Havana, April 9.—A "movie
sniper,"' who eluded the vigilance of
numerous scouts, ambushed Johnson
and Willard as they battled oil Mon- j
day last for the heavyweight champion-!
ship of the work! and obtained pic-,
tures or' the contest.
This is the opinion of Jack Johnson,
who, learning that films of some of the
rounds of the fight were to be shown
at several Havana theatres to-night,
started right out to stop what he
termed an infringement of his property!
rights. He consulted the secret police
and applied to the Judge of the Xight :
Court for an injunction.
The merits of the complaint could
not be acted upon immediately, and
the judge advised the ex-cham'pion to
serve a written notice of his claim on f
the firm of theatrical managers who!
had distributed the films, promising to
issue an injunction to-morrow should !
the law warrant it.
