Rookies Start for Charlottesville
Tomorrow Morning.
Base Ball Gossip.
BY J. ED GRILLO.
There was another influx of hall players
into the loeal gathering this morning
when John Henry, Frank Iatp"rto, Frank
Wpllchoncf ami "Ki<l" Allen, the outfielder
secure I from Sharon, Pa . put in
their appearance.
All the other new men are expected to
retort here some time later in the day,
and tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock the
squad will leave for Charlottesville. where
active training will begin Monday.
Sheer, the Youngstown recruit, will not
arrive here until Monday, and judged
from a letter from Gallia which reached
Griffith this morning there is no telling
when he will be able to report. Gallia
is In Greensboro, Tex., and be w rites that
the town has been quarantined because
of an epidemic of spinal meningitis.
iJallia says that just as sooti as the ban
is lifted he will report at Charlottesville,
but that he is unable to say when that

does not hinder him to walk in the least.
?nd he figures that within a week or ten |
days lie will he ready to take his turn j
behind the bat. Henry worke.l out for
several days in the gymnasium at Amherst,
and he is confident his knee will
be better than ever in a little while.
Prank I^aporte looks to be lit to play
at a moment's notice. Laporie has not
gained but a pound or two since the season
closed and he figures that within a
week he will be In playing condition.
He feels that he will hold down second
base regularly this season. He figures
that by practicing in the position right
from the outset of the training season ho
will overcome any weaknesses that he
may have shown there, and he is confident
that he will hit up to his usual
standard, which has never been below
the ..'JW mark.
In appearance Wellchonce resembles Ty
Cobb in many respects. He is a perfectly
built fellow, who looks to have had some
practice before reporting here. "I am
glad to get another chance In fast company."
said he, "and If hard work will
assure success I will have one of those
regular outfield positions. T am only a
few pounds overweight and I will be in
good shape within ten days if we have
the proper weather to train in."
Allen is a husky little fellow with a
pair of splendid shoulders. He is the
player whom George Stallings of the
Hoston Nationals touted as one of the
best young players he had seen In years.
Allen Is reported as being very fast and
a good hitter. Mike Kahoe picked him
up at Sharon last *-ason just as several
scouts for ether tuuhs were trying to
make a deal for him.
President Ben Minor, Treasurer Rapley
and Manager Griffith made an Inspection
of the ball park this morning
for the purpose of determining on what
?hanges and renovations will be necessary
before the season opens.
President Jim Gaffney of the Boston
Nationals wired Griffith tills morning
that he would be here Monday morning
to attend the Inauguration. Mr. Gafney
comes as a member of Tammany
Hall. During his stay in the city he
will be the guest of Mr. Griffith.
Kddie Ainsmith will leave with the j
squad of youngsters for < "harlottesville. |
He has refused Manager Griffith's 1
lnvltat'.on to stay here for the
inauguration. "I expect to be in this
league long enough to see several inaugurations."
said Ainsmith, whereupon
John Henry replied: "you won't be here
four months if you don't stop throwing
your arm away in practice."
ft was learned by Manager Griffith
this morning that Outfielder Connolly
would not be able to report on time.
A communication was received from
Connolly in which it was stated that,
owing to the fact that there is a death
in his family, he will not he here until
two or three days after the time set for
rr porting.
Connolly will probably join the squad
in ? 'harlotteavilie about the middle of
next week.

G. U. BASE BALL MEN
REPOBT FDR PRACTICE
Biue and Grav Should Have
Good Team, According
to Prospects.
Base ball at Georgetown for the ensuing
year started yesterday, when
Capt. Fury called all of his candidates
together. About twenty men responded
for the first call, and some of the men
look to be very promising. On account. !
of the dampness of the field the men
only indulged in batting practice and
in passing the ball around. No attempt
was made to do any fielding, because
of the wretched condition of the
field after Thursday's rain.
None of the pitchers as allowed to
do any loosening up because it is too
early. That there are several very
clever men out for the pitcher's position
seems certain. Yesterday Klernan
and Kelley handled themselves in a
very impressive manner. Kelley is the
foot ball player, and comes here with
a big reputation. It is hoped that he
will come through with all the good i
things tliat arc being said about him.
Jo<- Xewton, the youngster who caught
for the Mount St. Joseph's team of Phila- ;
delphla last spring, impressed the onlookers
by his actions, lie handles himself
like a real ball player, and Capt.
Fury stated that he was particularly
pleased with this young man's actions in
the practice yesterday.
That the outtield positions will he well
taken care of seems certain because
there are about a dozen capable men out
for these three positions. Of course, if
Capt. Fury decides to play in the outtield
only two of the places will be left open.
The men to report for the outtield yesterday
were Loichot, Donnelly, Frank
Mulcahy, Heiskell. McLean, Barron,
Foley, Marum. Walsh and Driscoll.
Young Mulcahy, brother of last year's
first sacker. shapes up well. Every time
he hit the ball in the practice yesterday
he impressed everybody as being a good
hitter. At the Worcester South High
School last year he led the team in hatting
Jim Dunn and Taylor were also out.
Both of these men are catchers of ability.
IXinn taught for Holy Cross during the
spring of lblo and put up a superb game.
It is predicted by his friends that if he
can reduce his weight he will catch the
opening game of the year for Georgetown.
Taylor hails from Williston Seminary.
Easthampton, Mass., and looks the part
of a good catcher.
Other men out for the team were Billy
Martin, the clever shortstop of the Preps
lust year: Shugrue. O'Boyle, Hollander
and Curry. Curry played second base on
the St. John's team of Dover, Mass., anil
is regarded as a good player.
VIRGINIA ANNOUNCES
COMPLETE SCHEDULE
Orange and Blue Undertaking
Its Most Pretentious List
of Contests.
i
Dispatch l<> The Star.
CHARLOTTESVILLE. Va.. March 1.?
Manager H. S. McKay of the 1 'niverslty I
of Virginia base ball team yesterday an- '
nounced Ills schedule as complete for the
season, and it is easily the most pretentious
ever attempted by a Virginia j
team.
A series of four games has been ar- j
ranged with the Washington team of the i
American l.eague in place of the two on
the original schedule. The first game
with the Nationals will be played one
week from today, ami the professionals
will have to hustle to walk away from
the collegians, who will have had an advantage
of three weeks' training before
the former arrive at tiie camp. Two
more games will l>e played in the following
week before t e regular college season
starts, and the final one of the series;
will come just before the Washington
team leaves for its exhibition games. The
leaguers should be in pretty fair condition
by this later date, and an Idea of
how well the team is going and the probable
line-up can be obtained.
Three games have been arranged with
Georgetown and a similar series with
Carolina, affording an opportunity to determine
the southern intercollegiate
championship^ while one or more games
will be played with each of the big teams
in the north.
| The season will be closed with a northern

WEILMAN, TALL
EXPECTED T(
Browns' Recruit Is
High ? Appears
Made Debut
Special Dispatch 1o The Star.
DETROIT. February 28.?The tallest
pitcher In the major leagues. Weilman of
the St. Louis Browns, Is expected to be a
sensation this year. This little fellow Is
only tl feet 5% Inches tall. Instead of being
the seven feet he looks. He is only
fairly heavy for his height, weighing 195
pounds.
This formidable looking southpaw got
his first taste of fast company in Detroit
last year. The last St. Louis series at
Detroit was one of the best of the year.
Hamilton opened it with a no-hit game.
Then came Allison with a three-hit affair,
and next day Hamilton was sent back.
He errew wild and was rescued by Alii-.
son, but four hits were all the Tigers got.
But when the Benga's slammed Allison
and Baumgardner for a lopsided victory
in the fourth affair, Stovall came through
with Weilman for his last shot.
Weilman Makes Good.
Weilman was beaten, but he made a
fine showing. On the mound he looked
like a skyscraper. He had lots of stuff.
But for a passed ball by Alexander and
an error by Stovall, he would have shut
out Detroit. As it was he lost, 2 to 1.
Weilman's rise to fame has been sudden
and meteorlike. In the spring of
1910 he was given a trial as a pitcher by
a stmi-professlonal club at Liberty, Ind..
and made good at once. The management
of the team in the Indiana town j
IT TAKES OUTFI

Best Hitters in All 1
Among the Fly
Interesting
It takes the outfielders to slug the ball.
In nineteen leagues the leaders in fifteen
last season played the gardens, two were
first basemen, one played second and one
was a catcher.
Although minor leaguers excelled the
big guns in doing most everything, this is
one branch of the sport in which the majors
were not left behind. That was because
Owen Wilson, the Pirate outfielder,
had a great year in the slugging line.
Wilson last season ran a dead heat with
Beall. the outfielder who was secured by

League! club. Kach bad a total of 100 j
bases for extra-sack swats.
This great total of the Pirate slugger
was compiled by landing 011 the pill for
many triples. He banged out thirty-six
hits that were good for three sacks, thereby
establishing a record for the majors,
if not for all leagues.
But Wilson did not have much success
in cases of doubles and home runs. He
cracked out nineteen douoles, while his
homers numbered eleven.
Beall Consistent Performer.
The Denver athlete who tied Wilson
for slugging honors did not make a lot of
one set, but averaged well throughout. He
whacked out twenty-six doubles, while his
triples totaled twenty-two. He had eighteen
four-base knocks to his credit, which I
is a very fair total.
The American League was topped by
Tris Speaker, the star of the Red Sox.
Tris hit out only 13 triples and 9 home
runs, but he had more doubles than any
athlete in the different leagues. In the

After joining the Browns last year
Weilman pitched in eight, games, of
which two were contests which he finished
for other pitchers. Of his six de[
cisive games he won two and lost four,
but. with better support would have won ah
hut one. in w hich he had to be taken out.
For a voting southpaw he showed wonderful
control, giving only three bases
on balls in his eight appearances and
not hitting a single hatte". lie fanned
twenty-four men in forty-eight innings,
or one batter every other Inning that
he worked. The two sanies which lie won
were both taken from the White Sox in
a single aeries, and both were ahut-outs.
His clever pitching in this series caused
Kid Oleason, the veteran coach of the
White Sox, to remark that here was
one man who would give the Chicago
team plenty of trouble in lbl.'l.
Weilman took a very prominent part
in the post-season series between the
, Cardinals and Browns at St. Houis last

which were taken by the Browns, in one
content holding the slugging Cards to a
single hit.

This landed him fourth in the list of

Another person who had very much
success in rapping out extra-base hits
was Harry Hejeune. the outfielder who
last spring started the season with the
Superbas, but was turned back to the
Central League. lie was right on the
heels of Wilson and Beall with a 188
total. This was gathered by hitting out
32 doubles. 8 triples and 25 home runs.

"Ivefty" High, tlie Tiger recruit, topped
the Connecticut League with 110 total

triples and poled 5 home runs. This is
not a very great total, but it landed him
higli in his league.
A Brownie recruit. Bunny Brief, topped
everything in the Michigan State League.
Bunny had 31 doubles, 11 triples and 13
home runs, which gave him a good total
of 134. If Brief can display a little of
this slugging skill with the Browns he
will be sure of a place on Stovall's team.

| DONLIN GOING TO MINORS.
! Former Great Player Will Be Mate
of Rube Waddell at Minneapolis.
NEW YORK, March 1.?Mike Donlin is
going to the minors! "What a storm of
tattle such an announcement would have
1 caused a few years ago! Yet such is the
fact from Donlin's own pen despite the
' press agent yams sent broadcast from
Philadelphia a few weeks ago. while Mike
was playing a. vaudeville engagement
there, to the effect that the once great
player had made up his mind to quit
the game.
Donlin is hooked for Minneapolis in the
American Association, where he will find
Rube Waddell and other ex-shining lights
awaiting his coming. And the wonderful
Mike has lost nothing but a trifle of his
old speed of foot, which every big league
manager must develop if he would win
games.
DE OMpATCII
Defends Title Against Hueston
in Pocket Billiards.
LOSER SHOWS HIS NERVE
With Victory Out of Reach He Does
Best Playing He Has
Exhibited.
NEW YORK. March 1.?By a score >
of 000 to 380 Alfredo De Oro successfully
defended his championship title at pocket
billiards in a match that ended in John
Doyle's academy last night. The veteran
wizard had the match practically won
when he started the last block of points,
as Tom Hueston. the challenger, had corraled
only 29 points the two first nights
<isruii?i -r>i' ior v?ro. iiuesion maae
his boldest bid for victory! and. playing'
brilliantly at times, finished with a total
of 157 for the night, showing great nerve
and resourcefulness by clearing the table
twice when De Oro needed only one tally
for victory.
As for De tiro, the billiard impresario.
John Doyle stated that never in his career
had the almost perpetual champion scored
with such celerity or shown better manipulation.
His finesse was remarkable and i
the strength of the shots in which he
scattered the pyramid was judged with a
nicety that seldom failed to obtain the desired
result.
Hueston played in spots with a certainty
that deserved better reward and cleared
the table five times to the one clean sweep
credited to De Oro. He made his best run
of the series with a .14 .and also flnlshecf
with a larger total than he had made '
either of the other nights. He had no I
i chance for victory, however, against the
champion, who apparently defies time. ]
; For twenty-six years De Oro has either
i been the titlehoider or fighting for that
honor, and he plays better now than in
1887. when he made his debut as a professional
and tied with Malone and Frey
for the championship.
Hueston broke the halls to open the
play, hut. De Oro took all but one in the
opening frame, leaving that for Hueston,
so that the challenger should take ids
chance on the opening shot again. For
seven frames he pursued this policy, deliberately
missing the last ball so that his
opponent had the difficult task of breaking
the bunch. Hueston had a spell of luck
in the fourth frame and, carrying over
one hail from the third, finished with a
run of 10 before he let De Oro in after
the opening shot in the fifth.
Meager counts followed for Hueston,
and as De Oro went steadily along
pocketing the tractable spheres the score
In favor of the champion was 121 to 4."
when De Oro finished a run of .'!8 in
the twelfth frame. A difficult cut for
the corner hung in the jaws of the
pocket just as the experts were figuring
on the chance of a new record.
Hueston's score mounted steadily after
that and he earned applause by a difficult
rcund-the-tablo shot for position
when clearing the table in the thirteenth.
This spurt netted him a run of fifteen,
and after De Oro had gone further
ahead In the fifteenth Hueston smarted
iii*? uiK run. AiiiT ma-mug eie\ en siraiKiii
in the sixteenth he picked the halls off
one by one until only three were left
in the next frame. Hueston studied
carefully before making the next shot
and finally secured good position for the
run which ended in the eighteenth frame.
There were safety plays in the
twentieth and twenty-second frames that
t delayed the inevitable result. Then Hueston
made his las* gallant stand in the
twenty-fifth and twenty-sixth frames. He
missed the hoodoo thirteen ball and De
Oro picked it off for victory.

COMPETITION TO I
BE VERY GOOD!
i
Georgetown Meet Tonight
Will Undoubtedly Be the
Best of the Season.
MANY WELL MATCHED
RELAY RACES BOOKED
Large Northern Schools and
Best Teams in This Section
Are Entered.
BY H. C. BYRD.
Some of the best competition ever
seen in a track meet in this city should
take place tonight in the Georgetown
games. The Illue and Gray management
has got together some of the most brilliant
performers in the world in the individual
events, and in the relay races
there is the most attractive list generally
that could be securer).
Meredith, Uippincott and Patterson of
the University of Pennsylvania form a
trio that with fair handicapping and on
a better track would be able to win
enough points ordinarily in a meet in
this section to secure the point trophy
for their school. That they will be
hanrlicanned considerably this evening
though, because of the style of track
on which they will have to run. is certain,
and for that reason they are not
likely to score as readily as might
otherwise be the case. Lippincott and
Patterson, in the dashes, will not be
hindered to any appreciable extent, but
Meredith, in the quarter, will certainly
find such a fast field against him that
there will be much difficulty in picking
his way through.
There are several others euterel from
the larger institutions that are bound to
make themselves known before the evening
is ended. In fact, the competition
is sure to be high-class.
There are entered from the various institutions
in the south and from many
in the north the best talent they afford.
The combinations will likely bring
out the best individual competition that
has been seen here in many a year.
Tie relay classification finds many
teams drawn together that should put up
races of an especially interesting character.
Vale, Princeton. Lehigh. Carlisle,
Virginia and Hopkins all have largo follow
ings in this city. The work of these
quartets should be so nearly equal as
to cause very ciose races to be run.
Yale Is to meet Princeton in a two-mile
relay. The event between these two schools
ought to be just as close as it was last 1
year, when the Dark Blue won out in
the last few feet. Lehigh and New York
University ought to be well matched. The
Gotham institution is generally represented
by a fairly fast four, a?d Lehigh
has a very capable quartet this season.
The North Uarolina and Carlisle Indian
two-mile teams are expected to show very
well against each other. The work of
both fours has been of an extraordinarily
high class, ami, besides having two strong
teams matched, any event in which the
Indians appear is sure to he interesting i
from the very fact that there are Indians !
In competition. Carlisle is also represented
by a one-?n!le team. It is matched in
a relay against th<- Johns Hopkins an i'
the Washington and Lee universities.
The Maryland Aggies have two cants!
entered, one to run against Richmond!
College and the other a-ainst Western I
Maryland. Whether or noi the Farmers j
will be able to win both contests is a
question, but it is probable that they will
at least make a good showing.

The George Washington University
basket hall team played its best game
of the year last night when it went
against the Catholic University quint
The llatchetites .lid their most capable
playing of the season, and surprised
even their best supporters with the
manner in which they worked. The
team eepmed to be in the game front ,
start to finish, and had it been able to I
shoot goals with a little more accuracy i
it would have ntade even a better
record.
The work of Xoonan and lioran was
the best of the evening. Xoonan played
the best basket ball of all the men on his
team, and probably made a better showing
in comparison than has any otlter
member of tiie George Washington .
quint this season. The play of Horan .
was the one factor which seemed to be
up to the standard in the C. I*, quint,
tils work kept his five in the lead, and
really caused it to win from the
j llatchetites as easily as it did.
