The great Zim has slumped out of
his leadership of the National league
third basemen and in his place comes
new star, one who has shone bright-)
!y lor years, but is at his zenith now t
acme uron, who icaas an ine imru.jow who was tried by the Athletics
sackers of the country in the
such men as GardUbr, who has drop
ped to third place in the American
eague, and of Baker, whose batting
decrease has reduced him back toward
the average.
In the American league Chicago1
leads by a comfoYtable 'margin, which,
in alt probability, would be larger
were it a certainty, that Weaver would
Dlay at that corner all the season. I
have .been compelled to, figure that
Weaver will play 100 games at third,
so the . figures . indicates two-thirds
Weaver and one-third McMullin, New
York holds second place in . each
league, due "to Baker's still' great
:lean-up hitting power and the calcu
lation that he ought to be better this
season, arid ,to Zimmerman' ability,
The great vim is in for tough
season one that will test his nerve
and courage and either make or smash
' him as a ball player. Jf he can stand
the abuse and ridicule and the "rid-
' ing' to which he will be subjected
in every game because o the unfortu
nate play in the world series, that
play may prove a blessing in disguise,
If anything can make Zimmerman
more serious and in, earnest and cause
hirri to pay less attention to the
crowd, ft wold make him the great
est third baseman of the present era.
''I Gardner Slowi Up.
The showing of Gardner in the
dope figures is no surprise, but it may
shock Boston somewhat. Gardner had
not slipped to the extent' that some
exnert declare. He was ' slower last
rasnn. and he. slaved by spurts. Evi
dently conditions were not the 'hap
piest, nor did they inspire this mag
nificent veteran to former heights. A
change of clubs, perhaps, was the best
thinz for him and." under Mack, he
ought toYeturn to close to his great
est efficiency. Jt, must be remem
bered, too. that Gardner was one of
ili hmt second basemen in the coun
try when he was changed to third
a nniiion he had scarcely tried. If
. Mark should switch him down to sec
6nd again and shorten up the throw
' ie would be very valuable.
The more one studies the men the
'more the foxiness'of Mack in making
.raiU is revealed. With his team
shot to pieces by the war and by
sales, he has craftily maneuvered un
til he had the foundation of a real
jatl club,' with veterans in the vital
not to steadv the youngster - I
ivill be surprised if the final figures
jo not show his team ranKing prcny
iv11 im. ' ' '
Boston is left with , a real third
base nroblcm to be solved. Fred
hrouaht back from Provi
ilcnce; is scarcejy heavy enough for
the work and there is a big chance
that Wally, Schang will get a chance
in win a reeular iob. I twill be a tough
job for anyone who is elected to play
"ah Timmv Collins and then Gard
ner, and the fans have not forgotten;
4 i - t -
uaa Angie
Tliere is an odd angle in the dope
in that Washington and Detroit prac
tically are tied as regards third base
ftrmtrth. and we find St. Louis far
down i the list, just managing to hold
ahead of Cleveland. t v -ricveland
must remain last in third
basemen, because Turner is old and
not hitting heavily, unless it can, de
velop a youngster who can stop the
can Turner is. tyme. the most won
dcrful of all the veterans of the game.
- and perhaps the least noticed, but
last year he bad a hard time batting
above .200 which is too low even for
a brainy and hard working third base
man. . , . ' ' ' , ' ' ' '' , '
. St Louts has a chance to jump
many points if Maisel show he can
come back strong. He was one of
the leaders two ears ago, a fighting,
hustling aggressive base running third
baseman and under the Donovan
management, switched to the outfield,
tried at other jobs, he went back in
every (department of the game. Under
Jones he may revive. I know of no
physical reason that he should have
slumped in such a manner,- It he
fails to revive, Austin will hold his
job and Austin is acorking good man
even now. - - . '.,; ,
J have had to figure them half and
: . i ;

n SAO MESELF-
half, but before the spring training
season is over I can amend the final
figures providing Jones reveals his
intentions.
Smith Gains.
Perhaps the only big surprise in
the National league will be the high
ranking of Red Smith, who gained in
almost every department of the game
last season, led his. team in hitting
and became.one of the competent men
of the league. Smith hs been improv
ing steadily for .three years and with
his increase in.attacking power passed
Milton Stock, who also showed steady
and consistent improvement.
St. Louis Cards look healthier at
third now as Baird, aSlpt several ups
and downs, really shows promise.
The team also has a fellow named
Stewart, purchased from Denver, who
is highly touted.' He played second
and, short before, but is said to be
good at third and he hits well, close
to .290, and seems fast.
A difference of 2S0 or more points
between the top and bottom players
in thirtt base position is entirely too
much, but that difference really ts not
as great as indicated by the figures.
The difference is due to the fact that
two men in one league and three in
the other are extremly hard hittrs
and cleanup men, which is rather ex
traordinary for third basemen. The
difference in defensive strength be
tween' top and bottom players is very
little. Chicago has hopes of develop
ing a man who niav chance the as-
pcct 0f the season. That is Lean a
promising looking and confident fel-'
for a time, in 1916 and who comes
back looking good.
This completes the study of the in
fieldsand the figures show Chicago
slightly leading Boston in the Amer
ican league, with New York and De
troit not far behind. In the National,
Cincinnati and New York are running
very close together. "
Let s pass to the outhelds, where
we tin a the greatest attacking
strength, and study the left fielders.

more than 100 leaders of the Indus-
trial Vorkers of the World, accused
of conspiracy to disrupt the nation's
war program, was halted for two
hours today while a battery of federal

ors tentatively accepted yesterday

Federal Judge Landis ordered that
every means be taken to have the
absent juror in court early this aft
ernoon. Pieces of dark bread and samples
of coffed were carried into court to
day by the 88 prisoners confined in
the county jail and a petition was
presented asking Judge Landis to or
der an investigation of conditions at
the jail. The petition protested that
the men could not be expected to
remain in good health and thus pre
vent further delays in the trial if the
fare of dark bread and weak coffee
for breakfast and the same for sup
per four timers a week remained in
order.

To Test Constitutionality
0 Law for Building Switch
Lincoln, April 3. (Special.) In a
proceeding in thessupreme court
Wednesday, the constitutionality of
a special provision authorizing the
construction of switches was at
tacked. The court heard an appeal on
an order from the Douglas county
.court directing the carrier, to construct
a switch at, Benson, a suburb of
Omaha.
The Northwestern' attorneys con
tended that the provision under which
the order was entered was unconstitu
tional, in that it provided property
might be taken for a public purpose
without due compensation.
