Davfe Shean hit safely five times, one of his knocks being a double. Hooper, Mclnnis and Wyckoff hacked the ball out of the lot, as did Daubert of the Robins.

The jj Flatbush players were not so bad with the willow themselves, garnering 13 blows. Joe Bush pitched the first six Innings for the Sox and was extremely effective. Wvckoft pitched the rest of the pastime. Boston scored In the first, when Harry Hooper cracked the first ball Grlner pitched over the fence In left. A home run by Daubert, after Olson had singled In the same frame, gave the Robins the lead.

The score wa tied by the Sox In the third, with -one out Shean and Strunk singled, the latter being forced at second by Whitey, The delayed steal was tried and Whiteman was trapped, but remained alive until Shean had counted. The Sox made four in the fourth, Mclnnis getting to bat twice in this frame, opening it with a homer over the left field fence and closing It with a strikeout. Doubles by Scott and Hooper, singles by Bush, Shean and Strunk and the latters stolen base aided In the manufacturing of the three other runs the Sox scored In this frame. A double by Bush, driving home Mayer, who had singled, gave the Sox another in the fifth, and in the sixth Shean' double, Strunks sacrifice hit and Whitemans sacrifice fly yielded still another. Wyckoff cracked It over the fence In the eighth, and In the following Inning he drove In Thomas, who had doubled and took third on Schangs infield slam.

Umpires, Hart and Klem, RED SOX IN FINE SHAPE TO OPEN SEASON, SAYS GRAVER By MELVILLE E. WEBB JR Laurence Graver, secretary of the Boston Red Sox, was at his desk at Fenway Park again yesterday, having ftiade a quick return from Little Rock, Ark, to get things ship-shape for the American League opening in Boston April 15.

Sec Graver started the Boston and Brooklyn clubs on their way through Texas, and then made his own get-a-way northward. Larry was able to answer a few questions regarding the Red Sox which should be Interesting to the New England fans. In the first place he says the club has made the most of the good weather, and individually and collectively is In good shape for the start of the league race. There have been no setbacks, except for Johnny Evers cold, and the pitchers have come along well under careful work. 'Stuffy Mclnnis, Larry says, is fulfilling-every, prediction of Manager Bartow that he will develop into a high-grade third baseman.

He has had a gjod break in his -new pesition, and his natural ability to play-ball has served him well. Mclnnfs Is covering a lot of ground to his right, is becoming accus-tofned to getting his- balance quickly after stops -of hard-hit' ground balls, and is throwing accurately and easily. His arm is In fine shape. F.vers is all right except for his cold. The- former Boston National second baseman has put a lot of ginger into the entire Red Sox club and has been playing first -class ball.

While hitting be has -been following through well, ard there has been an entire absence of the hitch that was noticed in his batting last sMson. The neuritis in his left shoulder seems to have disappeared. He is able to go down for bounding hits, off to his left. He is heavier than at any time since he began playing ball, and his present indisposition is no way calculated to handicap his play later. The work of the ex-Philadelphians, Schang, Strunk and Bush, has been good enough to make Manager Barrow feel that they will be of great value to the club.

The pitchers enjoy working with Walhe Schang, ho has taken hold with a will. Joe Bush is in excellent shape and Amos Strunk is enthusiastic over his chances of being on another contending club. Graver believes the fans will be much impressed with the all-round work of Whiteman, the new tenant of Duffy Lewis left field cliff. For a time after his arrival at Hot Springs Dick Hoblitzel was watched carefullv. He has not been overworking and is rounding out well.

Dick appreciates that (With Mclnnis on the team, his own work will be watched closely.

Newton High is trying to obtain an opponent for the baseball game at Claf-lin Field, Newtonville, for tomorrow, but Manager Robert Hopkins has not heard from any school desiring to play. Newton has filled the April 26 date, left open when Brookline High decided not have a nine, with Lynn English High School at Newtonville.

The Somerville High baseball material is new, with the exception of Capt Conlon in left field and Bent at third base. Coach DIckerman is working hard with the new material The first and second teams played a 6 to 5 tie NEW INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE IS ASSURED NEW YORK, April 4 The new International League of eight baseball clubs, tvith a class AA rating In the National Association of Professional Baseball Clubs, was made a certainty at a meeting tonight.

KING APPOINTED CAPTAIN OF HARVARD 1921 NINE Coach Hugh Duify of the Harvard baseball squad yesterday announced the appointment of Henry P. King of Boston as acting captain of the freshman baseball team. King has been playing the consistent ball on the yearling nine, both in fielding and batting.

Kings new appointment apparently shows him to be Duffys choice among the three candidates for first base, all of whom have displayed exceptional ability. I Of the others. Holmes, though he is as Strong a hitter as King, is a trifle inferior in his fielding, and Bigelow seems to have permanently given up first base for slab work Both the varsity and freshman squads w-ill continue practice during the approaching vacation.

The slogan for physical preparedness has borne fruit, if we may Judge by the record breaking entry list for the Penn Relay Carnival. It Is stated that more schools than ever have sent in entries.

At last accounts 300 Institutions had entered teams.

Andy Ward la credited with running the 100-yard dash in even time. There is a 130-j ard straightaway, an unusual feature for an indoor meet. Newton League bowlers were in fine fettle Wednesday night.
