THE TKAM OF OVH DIM", A.MS.
Nine batsmen that walk to the plate
each day, 1
While the only tune that the band
can play
Is "Over the fence and far away."
Blng! On the crest of the old trade
mark. Soaring up like a winging lark,
Over the fielders and out of the park.
With never a strike-out and never a
"pop,"
And never a drive that the fielders
. -''can stop,
But batting "one , thousand" with
never a drop.
Nine fielders that grab every bingle
In Bight,
SlamB to the left of "em hits to the
' right,
Pulling 'em down, though as high as
a kite.
With never an error and never a
"boot."
With never a fumble, however they
shoot, . .
Or wlggte or wobble or skim out or
BCOOt.
"Squeezing 'em tight" overhead, un
derneath. One hand, or both, as the drives skim
the heath.
Or when this is imiossible, using the
teeth.
A slab corps that faces each team at
the bat,
Shooting them over in this way or
' that, :-X
But striking 'em out with terrific
. eclat. , .
With the speed of a Krupp when the
enemy's shelled,
With "control" of the type that the
Standard Oil spelled, -
With the curves of I. -.Russell or Ma
dame A. Held. , -
With never a base-hit secured by the
foe,1 .
Yet right td the spot every time they
must go -Now,
honestly, truthfully isn't this
so? By Grantland Rice in
the NashviKe Tennessean.
Yesterday afternoon's practice
was a source of much pleasure to the
two hundred fans -that gathered at
the A. & M. Athletic field. Never be
fore has a Raleigh team exhibited so
much ginger, pepper, and other
things that go to make a great base
ball team. The infield work of the
regulars was so fast that a greasy
streak of blue ligbtning would have
felt ashamed of itself. Hoover,
Brumfleld, Murray and Brouthers
certainly put in some great work.
The Regulars and Yanlgans ".Ined
up for a few Innings with Brown
and White, both southpaws, doing the
slab work. Brown was working for
the yanlgans, and he loomed" up as
another star upon the baseball hori
zon. White delivered the goods for
the regulars in great style, the Yanl
gans only securing one run off him
and that was on a home run by M
ManuB, the first man up. Both of
these twlrlers promise to give some
of the would-be pennant aspirants a
bunch of trouble.
Fuclch was on the gro.nnds, but
was not called upon to show his art
in the pitcher's box. He officiated In

The work of the entire squad jas
of such a high order that it would be
a tough proposition to single out any
one player as tne sinning tignt in
yesterday's practice. But it may be
said without the slightest hesitation
or exaggeration, that Dick Crozier
has two sets of Inflelders, either of
I which would equal our wildest expec
tations. For the Regulars, allow me
to reiterate that the work of Hoover,
Hrunifield, Murray .'and , Brouthers
was so fast that the crowd of onlook
ers were .continually ...applauding' the
sensational stops, throws and other
good plays. Suffice to say that Croz-
ier and Hoffman were romping
around the outfield.; Tiiey were never
known to, fail to star in that capacity.
Large crowds are attending the
practices every ''afternoon, which' goes
to show that the professional baseball
spirit, which has been dormant for
the past several months,, will soon
break forth in all its fury. The
crowds arc: as we'.conie as the flowers
in May, as it encourages the players
to do their very best to get. in trim
for the hard race ahead.

Those right field bleachers are still
doing business at the same old stand.
Uick Crozier was forced to run nearly
tp the top of them yesterday when he
attempted to gather in a lino drive to
right centre? He eilhiu' had to take
his chances by running up the bleach
ers or fall over them, which; would
have been as bad. What argument
