By QUIN BALL ‘ After glimpeing the Boston Braves in mining at 5t. Petenbcrg it is herd to predict lhything very» op- timistic about the club's chances l" this year's pennant gallop. It would pl-obebb be much better to do your prediciting before seeing the teem in notion. ‘But beseball is s. funny racket. Beck in the Spring of 1914, if Mlyr one bed , ‘feted that the Braves would win the pennant, he would have been guffewed off the lot. As 1m u July 1st that yesr it was still s sucker Jedictlon but the Boston clubpulled one of the biggest eur- rriees ever recorded in bsseblli and was the I'll. Everybody who did predicting thst year was wrong. It is not impossible for everybody, who is laughing at the Braves now, to be til wet again this year. You never can. tell in baseball. Judge mobs has cornered some smart. blseblll brains in the ac- quisition of Johnny Byers and Hank Gowdy. Given e free rein these fel- lows might stage s. surprise even with the rut-her mediocre materiel they have to work with. The signing of Rabbit Maranville ms another smart move. The Rabbit L.O.C.

How the heart of the golfing fanatic rejoices atthe approach of the season when he can once more pander to a. de- praved and peace-disturbing vice. Forsrlking home, business ‘engage- ments, devotional duties. creditors {and blond stenographers, he hies ,forth to an expensive hand-mani- Zycurcd sheep pasture located far _ §"fron1 the maddening crowds ignoble istrife“—-anci three miles from a. lstrcet car. Donning the weird and iOlliiiiliCilSh garments of his calling and armed with a collection of Istrnnge, odd-shaped weapons, he i proceeds to carve the hand-kept and [segregated sod into varied geometric ipnttcl-ns, diverging occasionally to {do s. little tunnelling and excavating. i It is on eye-filling and humorous {sight to see a middle-aged addict of ' itlie game—especially one plentifully endowed with prime leaf lard— “making ready" to whale the ever- iilSilllg dnylights out of a. small whitewashed rubber pill. Weird and peculiar are his postures; strange and inexplainable are his antics, to my nothing of his language. which m‘. all times is loose-jointed, descrip- Itive 11nd saturated with sulphur, i Placing the ball in a defcnceless position. and seemingly without the lightest provocation, he attacks it in l1 ferocious fashion as though to nlar its usefulness forever. The ball eludes its assailant and leaping into ‘he air, dives into the recesses of some convenient wrought - iron ‘Tilflibbfify and disappears from hu- i man ken or vision. . ‘_ Now comes the supreme test of ilio game. To successfully track a. lzldlignant, dcmoniacsl-mindcd and cvil-llitcliiioilcd golf ball, calls for The Tearing U’ The Green Woodcraft faculties of nomean ord- er. The successful golfer must-pas“ sess the unerring scent of a blood-i hound. the tenacity of fly-paper, the hopefulness of an old maid, the; reasoning of a. Sherlock Holmes, andi the ability to look placid and unper-l turbed whilst red, white and blue anarchy is sweeping through his cor- pore. calloso. The ball does not always succes5_ fully elude iis pursuers. Cases have been known (principally in Scot- land) where s. golf ball has been located the same day-but this only after long and arduous searching. Some attention should be direct- ed to the costumes worn while play- ing the-game. Many weird and out- lsmdish sartorial absurdities are 11l- ways seen upon the links, and pat- "tems run the gamut through angles, squares, cublst. rail-fence and rat- tle-snake designs, horse blankets, Scotch plaids and other bewildering arrangements, all done-dike Jos- eph's coat of old—in many odd and startling colors. Too many regard "gowf" as s. re- laxation from business cares, a source of pleasure. an opportunity to temporarily evade bill collectors or c. chance to wear funny clothes; but this is not all of it. To painstaking- ly search for hours for strayed balls, to dig up acres of sod, to exvlvate caves and cellars in sand’ lots, to tramp for‘ hours o'er hills and hol- lows beneath a. blazing sun, while a small, undersized caddy staggers along under a shifting load of shelf 11nd heavy hardware, calls for sta- mina, fortitude end endurance. when darkness falls the golfer re- turns to his anxiously waiting fam- lly. With s. psi.- of feet that feel: like boiled suet puddings, s. dose of, poison ivy, half an acreof sunburn,‘ a pint of gin undsi- his belt" and s‘ pain in his vermiform appendix, he‘ will claim it to be a. perfect ddy.

The Rabbit is en artist when it comes to this sort of stuff and yet he is I crest be" player with all of his kidding. It wouldn't; be surprising to see the oi‘ kid out there playing in almost every game, eithelxat short or third. While splendidly. strangely enough, the Rabbit star‘.- ed his baseball career with the Braves and he's come hime to roost. He broke into pro baseball in 1913, .1. Hogan ....1no , 1..
