RORICII ONLYIN VETERAN: TWO -PECILAIED INELWGIBLE Candidates for the Varsity tennis' team have been engaged in an elimin- ation round robin play-off and several matches had gotten under way when all play was halted by the unexpect- ed snow last Monday. Play will be resumed as soon as weather permits. "Chuck" Merkel, ranking number one on the Wolverine squad last sea-; son went through the season as the mainstay on Michigan's team and end-' ed the season by capturing the Con- ference singles title. The absence of Merkel leaves a big hole to be filled and the coaches are grooming Captain Rorich for the job. This will be Rorich's second season as captain of the Varsity squad.' A trip to Blooihington on April 19 for a tilt with the University of In- diana net squad will comprise the spring training trip. In previous years the tennis men have had a 'trip throughout the midde-west and into the East but this year the itinerary has been confined to the Hoosier school. Among those who have had the op- portunity to show their stuff and who show promise of developing into Varsity players, are Brick, Walbridge, Hodgeman, Crane, Vose, and Segal. These men,. with Captain Rorich, the only veteran letter-man, form th* nucleus around whom the squad will1 be built. Jerome an aMa man of last year has been declared ineligible and his loss is a severe blow to, the hopes of the coaches. Ames, another man who showed promise last year, is also ineli- gible. A RSGET INJUNCTION FNiR USE OF BALL PARK, St. Louis, Mo., April 1.-A tempor- ary injunction preventing the St. Louis Browns from excluding the St. Louis Cardinals from the use of Sportsman's park "s a ball ground was returned by Circuit Judge Frey here today. Issuance of the injunction will as- sure the Cardinals a place to play in St. Louis until the permanent hearing is held. It directs the land owners,! to refrain from closing the Cardinals' leasehold, as had been requested by the Browns because of an overdue payment of rent. According totthe Cardinal's owner, Sam. Broaden, the failure to pay was merely an oversight. He testified that there was no other place in St. Louis, where they might play, and that for- feiture of the lease would mean dis- aster for the Cardinals. It is said the Browns started theE action against the Cardinals because of the latter team's objection to pro- posedd improvements at the ball grounds. Drake University Officials Invite Over 10 Schools } )es Moines, Ia., April ;1.-AthleticI Director K. L. Wilson, of Drake uni- versity, today mailed out formal entry blanks for the 15th annual Drake re- lay meet to more than 100 leading uni- versities, colleges and high schools. 'The meet Will be held April 25-26. April 17 has been set as the closing d;eate for entries.I dIt is thought probable that moreh than 1,500 athletes will compete in JOHNNY ETVES CONTINUES IN ROLE OF ACTING HEAD Orlando, Fla., April 1.-More light was cast on the Chance case today. Lou Barbour, road secretary of the White Sox, received a telegram from Chance in which he stated he would not join the club in Cattanooga on Friday as scheduled. He said he ex- pected to take charge "after the club reaches Chicago" but he did not set a definite date. The Chance case has been consider- able of a mystery to the Sox followers this spring. First he was to come to Winter Haven. Then it was said he would get there when the visit was half over. Johnny Evers had infor- mation that he would be in Jackson- ville, and then Evers said he knew all along that Chance was going to Chattanooga, but concealed the know- ledge for the best interests of the players. Now comes a telegram saying he will get to Chicago at a date not specified. The players are very much mystified and so are the newspaper men who are trying to keep pace with the variously mentioned travels of the Peerless Leader. Possibly he will not leave that dear old California at all. The suspicion grows. John Evers continues in nominal charge of the club, although he has not been vested with the authority of manager. He is dragging through the south two carloads of baseball per- sons, many of whom are not major leaguers. He has not been asked to suggest releases, so far as is known, and the extent of his duties is limited by directing the players what to do on the ball field. .ICE STARTSU PRING U W1OUNI) WORK AND i) E0 LD O'NT Coach Fishr'' 'ans for th \a' :: bal :j':d hart V en erie hampered by the return of cold we or and snow.

From the home plate to the center field fence on the diamond at Mobile the distance is 436 feet. The center field fence is 30 feet high. The allj slammed by the Babe cleared the' fence by 10 feet and when last seen was soaring and speeding with un- diminished energy.

Engraved or Printed ANNOUNCEMENTS h -" 112 S. MAIN ST. PHONE 1404 Ty Cobb is greatly relieved to findk tha~t Emory Rigney's injury' is not serious. Two new men, Burke and j Wingo have earned a place on the De- troit roster. Burke is an infielder : who will be used as utility man. Win- go will alternate withV Manush and Fothergill in left field. Cobb has re- leased pitcher Collard and Catcher Mangum for further seasoning in the minors. Tris Speaker's Cleveland club is showing a hitting streak with GeorgeJ Burns, acquired on a trade from Bos- ton, especially strong at the play. Joe Shaute has been elevated to the position of third man on the pitching staff, being placed directly behind Uhle and Coveleskie,. Two problems confront the Wash- ington club, pitching and third base. The five veterans of the mound corps, Johnson, Russell. Mogridge, Zachary,' and Zahniser compiled the record of 49 games won to 48 lost last year, which is not such an enviable one. Johnny Evers continues to hold the reins of the Chicago team. The most salient point in the pre-season work of th hose, is the showing of Bib Falk as a portside pitcher. He was a hurler when in the university and a good one, but not until this spring have the pale stockinged lads felt the necessity of working Bib in on the{ mound.l However Evers persuaded the little outfielder-hurler that he should takeK atry on the hill, and his showing has been the sensation of the camp. The recovery of George Sisler still holds the center of the stage with the St. Louis fans, as their hopes depend a great deal on whether or not their new manager will be able to holdR down his old p)lace at first base. Four classy boys are trying for the third base job.
