■'Billy" We 11s,
f KriRlIsh welter, who
I in e e t s Frankie
Schoell in the main
event, arrived in town yesterday and
worked out with "Puggy" Morton m
the afternoon. The English welter Is
the same clever l>oxor he was when
here last and appears to be in the
best of condition.
'Tiny" Herman, heavyweight, gets
his mail in Omaha and therefore is
on the battle ground. "Tiny” works
out daily and is leaving no stone un
turned in his preparation for his 10

dish will be the semi-windup to the
Wells Schoell fuss.
Morton In Omaha.
"Puggy" Morton, Pacific coast
lightweight, who meets Teddy Meyers
of Buffalo in a 10-round preliminary,
has been in Omaha for several days.
Like Herman. Morton works out
every afternoon. He too appears In
condition
Engberg will arrive sor.e time Wed
nesday, while Schoell and Meyers will
tattle into Omaha tomorrow. They
will put the finishing touches to their
training at the Business Men's gym

The Herman Engberg bout will be
sort of a revenge affair. Herman be

Schmader. Well, not so long ago
Andy Schmader and Engberg had a

Andy out in the first round. Inas

Herman will outweigh Engberg, but
a little matter of weight doesn't stop

Willard, and he's larger than Herman,
refused to meet Engberg.
Herman has won his two and only
starts in an Omaha ring via knockout.
If the big boy can knock out the St..
Paul scrapper he will be ripe for a
main event, bout in this burg.

Christy Mathewson has been inter

he has to say can be put In a few
words. He's glad to lie back In base

club of doubtful ownership, he’d
rather be a manager, but his health
won't stand for It; he thinks the Bos

he's positive they will get out of the

eld boy, now for what's to come.

Small Army of
Recruits After
Jobs in Majors
Fi\e Weeks More Will Bring
Them Against Real Tests—
Large drop Made Good
Last Year.
By I. E. SANBORN.
With all the confidence of youth a
small army of ambitious baseball play
ers, eager to graduate from the mi
nors to the majors, is busy right now
plugging through the preliminary
preparations for the final “exatVis"
which will decide how many of them
are ready to advance to the freshmen
class in the big leagues and how many
may try again after another year in
tho “prep" ranks
Five weeks more will bring them
up to the eve of tlie championship
season, when the reel test for some
of them will commence. And in the
interval a lot of them will have con
vinced their teachers that it would
bo of little use to let them even try
to pass tho examination for entrance
into fast company. These early fail
ures will be sent back shortly for
more schooling or for life, depending
on what amount of budding ability
they can demonstrate to watchful
managers during the training trip.
Tho fans are divided in heart In
terest between ^eagerness for new
faces in the old green diamond frame
and loyalty to the old ones. That is
what creates so much Interest In the
spring doings down south. The root
ters want to know Just as soon as
possible what the new crop of play
ers Is going to be and the task of tell
ing them is about as hazardous as
that of the weather forecaster. All
signs, portents and indications go
wrong one way or another some
times. The rookie that shines best in
the preliminaries may lack the heart
to make the major league grade while
the less flashy prospect may develop
latent qualities that will make him a
winning ball player.
1922 Youngsters Make Good.
Will tho rr* p of new talent be a*
generous in 1923 as that of last year?
That is a question often a*kel, but
the answer cannot be given correctly
until next fall after a season's test
under big league fire There was an
unusual harvest of future greats in
1922, and it is doubtful if it can be
equalled this yiar. partly because con
ditions will be different.
Opportunity will not be as large a
factor in the development of new tal
ent this year as tt was last. The
big leagues had not recovered In 1922
from the lean years directly follow
Irg the world war. when mightier
events than pennants occupied the
minds and time of the youth of the
land. The aging of the veterans went
right along Just the same, but the
development of young players was re
duced to a minimum and some who
had made good in tbs majors did
not return to the game when they
were discharged from s-rvice.
That gave the recruits of last year
a chance to fill regular positions in
greater numbers than ever before at I
proved the contention that the confi
dence that goes with a regular Job
helps many a rookie to make good.
It is Impossible within brief space
to catalog and comment on all the
young players who hr. ke Into the big
tent last season, and no two people i
probably would agree on the exact
definition of making good. But it is
possible to name a score of lad* who
made place* for themselves In the,
ranks in 1922 and it Is douhtftil if;
the coming seas n can equal that
showing.
National Gets Host It re alt.
The National league seems to have
fared better than the American In
th» niatter of new blood las? year, hut
that niav be |ieoaii*o it needed more

only apparent.
Although no attempt will be made

Whether tile coaches tried to ar

in a muddle. There is no getting

existed and flourished. In 1304 w’;
