The] Tigers have tried it a number of times already, but haven't met with much success. ! With a runner on second, that run- | ner makes a break .for third with | the pitch.

Then he gets u nd puts his face against the gr& ng and looks out at them, "The thing I like about Morvich is that he's such a nice horse; not like what Man o' War was like. Lord, now, there was a cranky horse; frac- tious, I calls him. He was nervous and petty in the stable and nervous on the track and a regular nuisance At the barrier. "I've seen a lot of hosses in my time around race tracks and it seems to me that Morvich has got more belly to him than any of them, even Man o' War, What 1 mean is like this: If a hoss is nerv- ous and mean, it's because he hasn't got the confidence he ought to have. | Now, Morvich is good and he knows he's good, and still he's just as kind as an old pony. If I go up to the stall and call him to the window, he'll let a stranger pet him, And when we go on the road with him, to take him to Kentucky for the Derby, that horse will just flop right down in the express car 4nd go to sleep." YANKS' NEW Ball Park Will Be Ready by Next Fall, Construction of a new stadium for the New York American League Club, a short distance from its pre- | sent "home" at the Polo Grounds, | | was begun today. | If the Yankees win the American League championship this year the stadium may be occupied for the world series. The park, furthermore, may be used for football games this fall'if it is completed in time. The eventful capacity of the stad- ium, which will have a three-deck stand surrounding the playing field, will be 85,000--greater than that of any ball park ever built. To begin with, however, temporary wooden bleachers will be used to supplement the concrete grandetand, and will be retained until the attendance war- rants completion of the plant. This may require several years, The park will be in the shape of a horseshoe, similar to the Polo Grounds, extending 700 feet along | 157th street and 700 feet down. The distance from the batter's box to the centre field "will be 470 feet, and from the box to right and left flelds 257 feet, making it more difficult than most parks in which to hit home rums, BENNY LEONARD'S BROTHER HAS FISTIC AMBITION. Benny Leomard's younger brother Joie is nineteen years old, weighs 132 pounds, and is two inches taller than the lightweight boxing cham- pion. Benny hopes Joie will be his successor as title holder. He is to make his debut in a short time. HUNTER BIGGEST GOLFER. | Stands 6 Feet, 514 Inches Tall and | Weighs 225 Pounds.
