The 1916 baseball season cannot come too soon to suit the Marlboro Field Club. Although this is snowball time, the husky future diamond heroes of the Flatbush section are planning a strenuous campaign with the object in view of surpassing Its past triumphs. In order that there will be no chance of confusing tbe successes of the club with those of any other organization possessing the same name, the members met recently at their headquarters, Ryder avenue and East Second street, and decided to char.ge the nam of the Marlboro Field Club and to incorporate it under the laws of the State. Heretofore the name was the Marlboro Club, but there is an organization of tbe same name In Manhattan, and at the suggestion of the Secretary of State the new title was selected. John j.

Foley Is president of the Marlboros and George C. Gilbert' iss manager of the first team. Both predict great things from the baseball aggregation better even than last season, when the Marlboros won 23 games of the 80 played. In addition to the big squad, a second team is being organized for 1915, consisting of the younger players, who will feature In the preliminary games on Marlboro Oval, Gravesend avenue and Avenue O. Ivan A.

Mr. Drake has spent many years at the pastime and will give the youngsters a thorough tryout. Last season the Marlboros had a batting average of .323, and fielded .970.

The club will hold a meeting on Tuesday evening, February 9 at the Masonic Temple to discuss the metter. the matter, President Salmon said yesterday: "The matter has given very careful consideration, and it has been determined that the club Is financially able to meet all the carrying charges involved.

The former on the inside know they are in the field.

The latest candidate to be uncov has been signed for a tryout with the tournament between young l'hillp V. Carter of Nassau, the Metropolitan junior champion, who, by the way. enters Harvard next year, and flardi-lier W. White, the champion of Flushing, L. developed one of these fascinating 'almost but not quite" matches which held the attention of a.

large gallery. Carter won by 1 up on the home green. A stiff breeze played pranks with the long shots and also gave queer curves to the balls on the putting greens. i Carter had a bit the best of the match throughout. He was 2 up at the turn and, although White won three holes coming in, Carter held the lead to the end.

Carter won the third, fifth, sixth and eighth holes in a total of 15, which is bogey, losing the seventh with a bad 7 where the wind swung his tee shot Into a trap and the ninth where White made a fine recovery from trouble on his second and holed a long putt for liar 3. Two prettier drives than the pluyers pent screaming down the course with the wind on the 390-yard twelfth are rarely seen. Carter's ball had a arry of fully 3u0 yards and a run of from 30 to -io with White's ball just beyond the 300-yard stake. Carter's third, however, had too much go In it and landed in the pit at the left and beyond the green from which he made a splendid recovery and got the ball so close to the cup that it looked like an easy putt. The try, however, declined to go down and White, who was thirty yards over the green and in good position on his second, pushed his ball up snug and went down in a winning 4.

The thirteenth was Carter's in 5, both players in trouble on their seconds and a little slow in approaching and putting. White's second to the whisker bunker at the left of the course and Just short of the green, cost him the fourteenth, for White was over the green in his second and he rimmed the cup for 3 on his approach and lay dead for 4. Carter's tee shot on the fifteenth had a bad slice which the wind helped and awung far off into the rough at the right, but he made a fine recovery which failed to help him for White was hole high at the light of the green and ran down a winning 4 easily. Carter's slice into the whisker bunker beyond the safety spot at the right gave White the advantage on the sixteenth, but the Nassau lad made a brilliant recovery and with White over the green on his second, there was little advantage. Carter's third made the grean, and White missed a chance to win ry an over approach and his fourth was not as close as it should be with Carter dead to the hole, ltoth balls, however, went down in 5.

White made the grt-en on the short seventeenth with Carter in the trap nt the front, which cost him the hole; White recording an easy 3 to reduce Carter's lead to one up. On the eighteenth, both plavers were short of the preen on their seconds, and with indifferent putting halved the hole in six.

The Boy Wonder furnished the sensation of the past week by winning his seventh series with an average of 246, the recortl for the season. He leads in grand average and high score. Glenn Riddell still retains the lead, but Offenheiser is getting dangerous. Riddell was scheduled for one match last week with Alex Dunbar, but this was postponed.

Meanwhile. Offenheiser won two series, defeating Henry Heise at the Crotona alleys on Monday night and Al Kittredge at the Pastime alleys Friday.

Bruce, chairman and secretary, respectively, of the National Baseball Commission, were re-elected at the annual meeting of that body here, tonight, after voting earlier in the day not to reorganize until after a decision of the Federal League's injunction suit at Chicago bad been rendered. At the afternoon session of the commission It was decided that It would be best not to hold an election of officers at this time because of the complicated legal situation in which organized baseball now finds itself, but at the meeting tonight this decision was reconsidered and the election was held. Chairman Herrmann of the commission said: "While we decided to reorganize, we likewise decided not to make any move for any of the players that are likely to be involved in any decision that the Court might make at Chicago." The commission went into the question of lifting the draft from the Class AA leagues, and, after a discussion, It was announced that the question was such an important one, "not only to the minor leagues concerned, but also "Back to nature" training will be the scheme tried by Manager Lee Magee of the Brooklyn Federal League baseball team this spring.

Instead of adopting Bill Donovan's idea that a big city is the proper place for teaching the busher idea to shoit, Magee is to try his luck in Browjis Wells, M1SS.J ten miles from the nearest railroad, which is at Hazelhurst, Miss. It is also said to be three miles from a telegraph office. The Fed press agents do not say much about the ball park, but they enthuse over the fresh milk and eggs, the horseback rides, the strolls along the road, and other supposed rural delights, to an extent that makes the reader wonder whether Magee is going to develop a ball team, or run a sanitarium for folks on their last legs. About thirty men will be in the Brooklyn Fed party, which will be divided into two squads, one starting from Brooklyn on March 5, and the other from Cincinnati on the following day. Competent guides will be furnished at Hazelhurst, from which point the athletes will complete the trip afoot or on horseback, as the case may be.

The other Federal training camps will be: St. Louis at Havana, Cuba; Pittsburg at Augusta. where the Fted Lewis served the club in excellent style during the whole season, fielding ior an average of .950 and hitting: .810.

Bill is a Democrat of parts in Putnam County, where his sanitarium is located. VV. C. Osboi-n, representative of Putnam County of the State Democratic Committee, is his next door neighbor and warm supporter. Another Brown booster Is ex-State Senator Frawley, who fathered the law which made ten-round bouts legal in New York and provided for the present unpaid Boxing Commission.

Hamilton Fish, Progressive Assemblyman, and a host of other prominent men are friends of Brown. He will have the backing of many Republicans who are more interested in the protection of the sport by seeing a competent commission appointed, than they are in playing petty, party politics. Brown's clean record, his experience as a boxer, referee and promoter, appeal to sportsmen rather than to "sporting men," and he looms in the afternoon and who looks so much like ex-Fresldent Taft that he was mistaken for the latter.

Gallant is a smashing boxer, and was aggressive and forceful enough to get two popular decisions over Leach Cross. He was going great guns until he was knocked out by Sam Kobideau a couple of weeks or so ago, to the amazement of the fight critics. Gallant had not been beaten up when the knockout went over, and was not net back in his body or in his nerve by the one punch that rocked him to sleep. He has been as aggressive as ever since that bout and should give Bloom all the Brooklynite is looking for.
