Park Pennant Bee Not Buzzing In llapny-Go-Lucky Spirit Grips Boston National Team as 1921 Race Nears Start-. ing Point. By STAFF CORRESPONDENT. Galveston, Tex.. March 31. (Spe cial.) Judging from talk around some of the training camps, it is going to be a great battle in the Na tional league this season to deter mine whether the Boston Braves or the Phillies, will finish in last place. But there is no such talk down hero, where the Braves are drilling with the gulf breezes blowing upon them. Fred Mitchell, who has taken up the burden of manager, says all such talk is bunk, and he firmly be lieves he will prove it and thus spring a surprise upon some of the merry rivals. Weak on Pitching Talent. Now the question is what can the Braves do on ability alone? Maran ville, star for years, is gone. In his place, the team has a fair shortstop and a couple of sturdy outfieldcio who were badly needed. It looks now as if the Boston club will be up with the best of them -in outfield strength. It will be with the lead ers in catching. It has only a fair pitching staff, unless the unexpected tomes from some recruit. It is none too strong on the infield. . 1 There arc more than a dozen slab men in the camp. Mitchell intends to carry eight or nine. Jt appears that Joe Oeschgcr is the best. He looks ss good as ever, which means he would be a regular on anv staff in the majors. Pierotti Looks Likely. 'Albert Pierotti, a - birr, athle'.ic youngster from the semi-pro rank's of New England, aiso has the markings of a big leaguer. The splendid three-man catching staff consists of Hank Gowdv, Alickey O'Neill and Frank Gil O'Neill is sure to do most of the work. Mitchell thinks he's the best in the league. Gibson is a capable fellow, who was with San Antonio last season. With Maranville gone, the infield may not have its old-time pep. Holke will be on first base. Horace Ford, with the team last year as utility man, is the strong candidate for sec ond Barbare, obtained as part pav for Maranville, will be at short, and Toncy Boeckel is back at third. There are nine outfielders "and all good. Al Nixon, a husky' recruit, is likely to he the rcg-.ilar center. He throws left handed, but hits ri;rly. Southwortli is slated for the right job and the regular for ieft is un certain. Nicholson, the ex-Pittsburgh man, is quite sure to be in there against left-handed pitching. Eddie Eayrs is the strong candidate against right-handed pitching. Call Issued for Teams in Indoor Base Ball Leagues A call for candidates and teams for the second annual indoor base ball leagues, which will begin their scries at the Y, M. C. A. Tuesday nighr; April 5, was issued yesterday by N. J. Weston, physical director.

The leagues were scheduled to. open games 011 March 15, but basket ball iutcrferred. Camp JAMES J.

Otto Floto has received a letter from Francois Descamps, in which the manager of Carpentier rattles off the following: "Look, over all the fights Georges has en gaged in and you find he gets better as he goes along; and his defeats, of which there are few, always occurred toward the end. Between the fifth and fifteenth rounds are his best If Dempsey fails to beat him in the first five rounds he cannot beat Georges at all. I think Carpentier will beat Dempsey in the first three rounds, and you remember this. We have our plan of battle all laid out and will follow it, of course, changing it if Dempsey plans a different method of fighting than the one he has used to date." Promoter Thompson Going to Big Expense In St aging Mat Show i Des Moines, la., March 31. (Spe l cial.) The biggest expense iu the promotion of a championship wres tling inaicii in ijcs Glomes, next 10 the purse that must be given the grapplers, is rental, according to Os car Thorsou, who is u6w preparing for the title bout here 011 April 12, when Earl Caddock will try to re gain the world's championship from "Strangler'' Lewis. The original cost of renting thf Coliseum is not so great but the cost of erecting raised seats on three sides of the ring something that is necessary in order to handle the crowd properly and satisfy every one brings the total up into big figures and of course this expense must be charged as rental, for in i other cities when a coliseum or au ditorium ts rented, the seats are in p'ace ready for the promoter to fill them.
