maybe wc had better call
them Mar, brraune of their
world's thampion.shin are
allowed to hift, for them-
aelves while the hunt goea on
for rookie who cither are
ripe or who Miow enough ,to
warrant nursing1 them in the
minors for a year or po before
putting them to the big test.
The rf"ii the tfftUt are be
ing eitrit more or less latitude !
easily explained. Mr. Mii.uw's hall

now, with tlir j'ovilif exception of
one position, lie coulit, if lie so de
sired, fume the lii'ii, including llie
pitcher, who will he in Hie lineup
on opening d.iy.illi only problem is
t find a nt.in to lill Cicorgc Burn'
shoes in the oni(iell, Reyond that
lie ran do iiotliinc except to wonder
whether hi pitcher wilt hold tip
in another pennant dash.
Need Good Hurlcrs,
If the Cii.mU possessed four con
sistent hurlcrs and a couple more
to fill in, MeGraw could feel safe
in having tickrts printed for the
1922 world's scries. The trouble is
that, instead of four, lie has only
two men who can be counted upon
to go in there rcpularly and give a
good account of themselves, win or
lose.
These two are Jess Barnes, who
ascended the pinnacle of fame by
ln's work in the la-it world's scries,
and Art Xchf. the left-hander. Phil
DourUs and Fred Tonev Mil! hatiR
on, but they aren't the pitchers they
were a couple of years back.
Cecil Causey, the cx-Philly pitch
er, is with the team, but he cannot
be counted on for much. One of the
promising youngsters is 'Tat'' Shea,
who was farmed out to the Interna
tional league last season. The same
can be said for Wilfred Ryan, the
ex-IIoly Cross college pitcher.
Plenty Young Pitchers.
McGraw has so many other young
pitchers that he himself probably
' does not know where they are from.
The best of tin's assortment, no
doubt, is Virgil Barnes, brother of
Jesse. Virgil was farmed out to Mil
waukee last season and McGraw
counts on him to show something.
The only other worth mentioning is
Claude Jonnard, from the Southern
association.
For the place left vacant when
Burns was shipped to Cincinnati
there are 3 flock of possibilities, but
McGraw will have to give the mat
ter considerable attention before
making a decision, and even then
he may have to change' it. - .
There arc' seven outfielders ton
band and probably five will be re
tained. For all around ability. Ross
Young is the choicest of the lot, and
barring the advent of a fly-chasing
sensation, the center garden may go
to him. Irish Mcusel is almost cer
tain to grab one of the other out
posts This leaves Charles Stengel,
who' may not be able to satisfy Mc
Graw's demands for speed, to bat
tle against the rookies for the other
position.
Don't Expect Any Change.
With George Kelly. Frank Frisch,
Dave Bancroft and Heiuie Groh on
hand it is not reasonable to suppose
any upstart is going to come along
and change the complexion of the
infield. The fact that McGraw pur
chased McConncll from Frisco and
has been trying Boone and Howard
Berry, the great Pennsylvania var
sity athlete, at the first corner indi
cates some dissatisfaction with Kel
ly's work, but when the bell rings
the tall boy who hits homers occa
sionally is going to be out there
reaching for whatever is thrown or
batted his way.

BESULTS OF LASr WEEk'S GAMES.
Monday, March A At t'niverslly riser :
Wesleyan. 36; York. .
Wednesday, March 8 At Fremont:
Wenleyan, S3; Midland, 21. At York;
Hastings, 31; York, 24.
THE college conference basket
ball season is over, the final
clash being staged last week.
While the games had no bearing on
the conference championship, still
they were of sulicicnt importance
to change the rating of various
'.cams.
Peru is easily the champion, hav
ing played the season without de
feat. Coach Speer's aggregation did
excellent goal flipping and few .teams
were able to run them a close race.
Doane and Wesleyan were threat
ening the Bobcats all of .the time,
but were unable to capture the lead
ership any time during the season.
WcsleyanV suggestion of a post
season game and a direct challenge
to Peru has been ignored. There
will be no post season clash to give
the Coyotes a chance to bump on
the college champions. Doane
dropped out of the running for tiie
leadership -when it was drubbed by
both Peru and Wesleyan the same
week. '
Doane had held the championship
for four consecutive years.
Last weeks games dribbled into
the standings with, little effect upon
them, but show only the exact rat-
ng of the teams at the end of the
vear. Urand island does not noia
the cellar position, since Waype
Normal must be. considered as one
of the conference, having played
seven 'games before dropping from
the race. .

college, who is writing spe
cial track articles for The Bee. In
the Nebraska track tdyouts Satur
day afternoon Track Coach Schulte
became inspired and asked Loomis,
who was with the United States
Olympic team in 1920 at Antwerp

surceiiful ever atasrd in Xrhr4ka,
A notable feature was the esrrllmt
ctafnincation of tcaina. Some of the

and proved worthy competitor. 1 lie
Crne-Sutton clash which went to the
Clay county team in the ilat A i.nc
by a score of 1J to II, was not the
only close score. An avenue of
about 3 point wa the lead of the
winning teams in the entire tourney. j
The final round was often decided in
many elates by from 1 to 2 point.
Killey's victory over Paxton bv a 1J
to 3 score and the defeat of Prince

niargain for vic

There' waj-'very little dissatisfac

classification was carried on by the

basis of the success of the tourney.
