Dempsey's companion and guide on the trip was Mickey Singer, Reno fisherman. April 21.

A total of approximately 50 aspiring youngsters and veterans alike reported to Pilot Abe. Unable to get his bearings with such a mob around the veteran pitcher announced last night tliat the irsi v. hack of the ole ax would fall today and plenty hard, as he described it. By nightfall there will be only 25 players on the roster of the Cannibals, if that many, according to Pilot Abe.

The new arrival hails from the Galveston club and answers lo the name of Krooner. He was with Del Pratt club six weeks and made a favorable showing. He re- I ported in condition and is ready to start fooling them now. Although there was a surplus of ball players at Fair park yesterday, Manager Bowman sent the hopefuls through a hard workout and gave them a couple of rounds of hitting and infield practice Pilot Abe is all i smiles. He has heard some mighty good tales about some of those he has I on the dotted line and predicts that if Uiey live up to their past reputations everything will be pretty.

A catcher, Cryer, reported yesterday and in all probability is going to make somebody skip along pretty lively to do the receiving for the Cannibals this season. Last season Cryer was over in the Cotton States league and made a better than fair showing. But he may have the competition he needs in Freddy Serur. a late arrival who will pull on a monkey suit today and start playing with the little pellet. An exhibition game ris oeen sched- uled for Thursday afternoon at Fair park between the Cannibpls and the Farniensville high school.

Three umpires have been appointed by President Wancirrling. They are Baker, of Carthege, Kate ol Commerce, and Frederick, of Miami, Fla.

Another will be named before the season opens, according to a statement made by the likeable and jovial president of the East Texas league. Wanderling is mighty proud of the East Texas league and doesn't mind telling one so. He realized that the people of this section have something that other portions of the United Slates are crying and begging for. an organized baseball league operating on its own hook without any connections whatever with a league of higher classification.
