they are tying to figure how long Walter Johnson, the Senators' "ace," will be able to hold up his head in the American League. Right here in Pittsburgh we have Elmer Knetzer, veteran hurler, who is planning to fool the batters again this coming season, and he says he will quit only when they cut that uniform off him. Elmer is only 38 years old. Knetzer paid us a visit recently. He looked to be in great shape physically and talked entertainly of his plans for the coming diamond campaign.

Last fall at Mahoning City the liabe Ruth barnstormers came through for an exhibition same in that hustling little town. Knetzer pitched, struck out the Bambino and held them hitless. "You've gotta pitch to that bird." he chirped. "I kept 'em low and downstairs. He did not get a hit off me." Knetzer claims he can make more money pitching for semi-pro and independent teams than with a minor league club.

McKECHNIE MAY SWING AXE ON ROOKIES IN LOUISVILLE By EDWARD F. HALI.VGEIl, Baseball Editor. Pittsburgh Post.

DODGE CITY, April 4. Nightfall today found the Pirates whirling tediously over the prairies of Kansas, grateful that they were on the last lap of 888 miles from Albuquerque to Kansas City. All they have done since their departure out of the santfy wastes of New Mexico on Thursday evening, was to eat and find various methods of whiling away the dull time on the ears. Manager McKechnie tonight separated his players into two squads arid each group was assigned to a different Pullman. The sleeper carrying the Regulars will continue on its way to-Kansas City, while the other snooze wagon will be kicked off the train at 1 o'clock in the morning and hustled to Wichita Very little enthusiasm was shown bv th m-wA f.

Roy Schooley, master mind of local hockey, made the championship Soo Greyhounds of Canada a fine offer to come here next week for two exhibition games, but stated yesterday that he was afraid he would not be able to them.

Unless this team is induced to come to Duquesne Garden the local hockey season will close with the game against Boston tomorrow night. You cannot fool the hockey fans of Pittsburgh. They have been used to good hockey and know hockey when they see it. That's one reason why the games here this season have been so well patronized. George Brown of the Boston Athletic Association team, told me last week that the Pittsburgh Yellow Jackets were one of the smoothest working and best defensive aggregations he had ever seen on the ice.

BIRMINGHAM, April 4. Be-r a line someone had carelessly mislaid a lake In the middle of th0 local ball yard during an overnight rain, the Giants and Whltemx cancelled their ball game bent today and went separate ways toward home. Sojne of the Playera, with a pautaion foryachtlng, rrulaed about the diamond for a time. Several fish were seen trying to pay money at the gate, under impreaaion that a ball game was about to be pro-roked. The Whltesox went to Chattanooga and the Glanta to Memphis.

Both will play a few games with minor league teams before rejoining Monday in Thattanooga. The Glanta have won three of the 9ve games that the touring combination haa played so far. OXFORD RULES FAVORITE IN CREW CLASSIC American Stroke Affords Edge Over Cambridge. LONDON. April 4.

(By the Associated Pressi Odds as high as 2 to 1 have been offered on the Oxford eight to defeat Cambridge in the annual row up the Thames tomorrow. Cambridge partsans, however, are not without hope that their all-British brew" may con found- towpath critics by outrowlng the heavier and more experienced eight stroked by the American oarsman, W. P. Meil en. Even the weather seems more favorable to Oxford's heavier crew, but the partisans of the lighter Cambridge shell are hopeful that the wintry blasts.

which have been whipping up the river all week, may moderate tomorrow. Unless the bitter cold winds abate they are likely to affect, not only the oarsmen, but the sie of the crowd. The English do not seem bothered by the dampness, to which they are accustomed, but few of them relish standing for hours in the bitter Arctic breezes as most of those who see the race are likely to have to do. The natives complain that this has been the coldest spring in many years, although it had the saving grace of being also the driest. Cad ore Slips Back To Minor Leagues I.OS ANGELES.

Wednesday. The sun was bright and the air waa springlike, yet a trifle cool. The same pleasant weather greeted the I-'iratts as they Journeyed eastward today, but each time they stopped for ia meal they realized that they cannot expect to escape from an occasional shriver upon their return from the balmy state of California. 1 Ail members of the team were in fine physical shape tonight and if the good weather continues they expect to derive much, more benefit from the four games with the champions of th American Association, than the did in the farcical frolics staged on the sancy desert In Arizona and New Mexico. All the rest of their exhibition games will be played on fields where base running and sliding are not fraught with the same dangers as were encountered on the mesa.

Some of the Californians with tha baseball party were alarmed upon learning of an earthquake shock in San i-'rancisco and Oakland, but they felt i much relief when today's dispatches announced that the tremors were slight and no serious damage resulted. Indian women wtio peddle earthenware, beaded trinkets and other souvenir along the route found good customers in the Pittsburgh ball players. Several of the athletes loaded up witn Junk. Charley Grimm bought a pair or Indian vases and one of them was accidentally broken. "When I got on the train," he said, "I had two pieces oV crockery, but I'm pretty lucky for now I have a dozen pieces." the boys will play an exhibition with the Western League team of that Kansas town.

The second outfit will line up with Barnes, Hawiings, Ens and Alley on the inflehi. Luce and Mueller will 'be outfielders and. the third member of the trio will be chosen from among the pitchers. Southpaw Emil Yde will play the outre garden in one of the games, while either Huffman or Hollister will work in the others. In addition to the three hurlers named.

Stone, Lundgren, IHsmarest, Burns and Mathews will complete the barnstorming staff. Knox will do the catching. Capper Directs Yanigans. Charles Capper will act a.s business manager, while Ens and Htnchman will look after the affairs on the playing field. Stone is slated to pitoh the game at Wichita.

The second team will play a Sunday game In Oklahoma City where Yde formerly starred. It waa at the request of the fans of that place that consented to send this young southpaw on the wildcat expedition. He will be given a rousing reception a.nd after the Oklahoma City engagement he will hustle to Kansas City to rejoin the Regulars and accompany them next Tuesday night when they start for Memphis. The youngsters will play their way to Memphis by making stands in Bartlesville, Tulsa, Muskogee and lie-Alester. The Regulars will reach the Tennessee city on the morning of Wednesday, April 9, while the Yanigans will land in the same place that evening.

By that time McKechnie probably will have decided definitely upon who shall be handed early releases, but he may do most of his axe swinging after arriving in Louisville on Saturday, April 12. Pirates Play Blues Today. The Regulars will lineup tomorrow in Kansas City, as they are expected to array themselves in the opening game at Cincinnati. Wilbur Cooper will be on the firing line and Walter Schmidt will catch. The rest of the batting order will be as it has been in the training camp and' in the start of the exhibition games played thus far.

The Blues, after training on the Pacific coast, worked out on their own arrived home from the tst on V. mi WAKEFIELD AND JACKSON SPLIT CUE MATCHES Milwaukee Visitor Exhibits Banking Skill During Close Game. Two hnrd-fought games of three-cushion billiards, part of the National Billiard League's arouil championship tournament. were -liviled between Harry Wakefield of this city, and Clarence Jaikion of Milwaukee in the Davis billiard rooms here yesterday. Jackson, exhibiting of the banking skill that has made him famous the worU over, took the afternoon match In 63 Innings, with a score of 50 to 33.

Wakefield won at night In 04 innings, the score being SO to 4fi. Tha local player almost broke his own ipeed record at the r.ight contest, but becoming over-anxious threw caution to the winds with the result thj.t he edgeO out only by a brief marein. Jackson was in splendid form through out the afternoon contest. He took the lead with the very opening of the con-teat and held it securely until the end. Wakefield brought out all of the ctrstegj-.

deft stroke and skill he could command, but still could not stop the visitor, who provided thrills apleVty. The most exciting point in Jackson's game was a five-cushion follow-through shot, although there were maov that i brought applause from, the audience. Jackson had a high run of nine, and Wakefleld ran six. Wakefield started out in wonderful form at night and hastnil nlcis until he had 45 points in the thirty-fourth inning. A quick finish would have lowered his inning record, tnd this was where he made the mistake which permitted Jackson to climb almost to victory.

Jackson was 20 point's In the rear at the time. Wakefield, thinking to end the game quickly, got reckless. Instead of resorting to safeties -as the best strategy in various difficult spots, he tried to make the point. On the other hand Jackson played safe to the limit, going after only those he was quite positive he could make. The result was that he cut down the lead to only four, and it looked as though he liad a good chance to take the match.

He made posnts while Wakefield was making only one. However Wakefield recovered his form in time to win. Wakefield's high run was seven, and Jackson's six. Arthur Woods of this city and Frank Taterski of Detroit will finish their set of pocket billiard contests in the Davis rooms today. These games were begun ou Thursday and resulted In an even break.

OUSTER CASE AGAINST CARDS AIRED AGAIN Browns Try to Dissolve Injunction Motion. SI. IA.II. IS. Apni I ne ri.

i.ui.- Nationals are again in danger of losing the use of Sportsman's Park as a ball ground during the 1324 season. A motion filed here today by the St. Louis Browns club asks the dissolution of a temporary Injunction granted the Cardinals last Monday, preventing their eviction from the park. The Browns had sought to cancel the Cardinals' 10-year lease of the park because of alleged breach of agreement through an overdue payment of rent, and failure to provide proper insurance for the park. The motion filed today holds that the relief granted by the injunction is inconsistent with the nature of the Browns' previous petition to cancel the Cardinals' lease.
