Work Will Begin at Norfolk To¬morrow.Gessler Will Re¬

port Tuesday.There is nothing superstitious about

Manager James MeAleer. There were

exactly thirteen in the party of Wash¬ington ball players that sailed down thePotomac last night on the steamer South¬land for the training season at Norfolk.The g' >up comprised:James R. MeAleer, manager.Joseph Quirk, trainer.«*barles Street, catcher.William Rapp. catcher.John Hardy, catcher."Dolly" Gray, pitcher."Dixie" Walker, pitcher.Jerry Ohl. pitcher.Tom Crooks, flrst baseman.George Me Bride, shortstop.Jack Lelivelt, left fielder.Clyde Milan, center fielder.Wad.? Killii'er, utility man.

Before the big steamer pulled out theygathered 0:1 the top deck and a pictureul the group taken. Grounakeeper"Red" o'Daa was tnere to see the boysoff, and he was pulled into the pictureby the players, with wliom he is a bigJavorite.Although the boat was not due to leave

before ."»;iO, the "fans" began gatheringas early as 5 o'clock, and by the timethe boys went on board a couple of hun¬dred friends were on hand to bid themgood-bye.Manager .ucAleer assigned the players

thfir statr rooms and paired them off.All the players appeared glad that anew season was again drawing near andthat they would soon be out ou the heldof contest, v-apt. Posey of the South¬land and General Manager Callahan ex¬erted themselves in every way to makethe boys feel at home.The team is oue in Norfolk this morn-

lng, a genera' sightseeing tour will bemade ami tomorrow morning everybodywill buckle down to hard work.

"1 am not a bit superstitious," saidManager MeAleer when he discoveredthat his outfit consisted of exactly thir¬teen. "There are plenty who believe '13'is lucky, and I belong to that bunch."president Noyes went with MeAleer

down to tiie steamboat wharf and re¬mained on the boat until the warningwhistle blew. He had the unique ex¬perience of Introducing a ball player toJils manager in presenting Milan to Me¬Aleer. 'l he pair knew each other bysight. but did not have a personal ac-quaintance.

Charley Street entertained the entiregiottp for half an hour before the boatsteamed away with stories of his successwith the gun in the mountains aroundWilliamsport, aud claimed to have bowledover deer in countless number.Charley lost little time in notifyingManager MeAleer that he wanted to be

paired off with George McBride, as heconsidered him lucky."Mac has sent three men to good clubs,and I want to get next to him when

moving time comes again. Ganley was.the flrst to room with Mac and he wentto the Athletics. Delehanty took hisplace and was traded to the championTigers. Charley Smith made the thirdand he Is now with the Boston 'speedboys.' It would Just be my luck to belanded In Williamsport, but there wouldbe no kick coming from me. as that ismy home."The sally created lots of laughter and

put everybody in a good humor.Pitcher Jerry Ohl and Clyde Milan were

the last to report to Manager MeAleeryesterday afternoon. The big pitchercame over from his home in New Jerseyand carried himself like a vete.an. Jeir>says he has been out on his father'sfarm all winter and hasn't seen a citysince he left here last fall. He is inprime condition and as hard as the pro¬verbial nails. All the time Ohl workedwith the Nationals last year he had asore arm, but for some reason kept thefact to himself and did the best he could.It was thought that Jerry had been "letout" for good, but a very close friendto the club owners insisted that the bigfellow "had the goods," and it was de¬cided to give him another trial. Thisfriend says that Jerry has great speedand good control when "right." and willyet prove to be a pitcher of the firstclass.Clyde Milan has been In Ohio for the

past month, instead of Tennessee, as wasthought by the club officials, and cameon from Cincinnati last night. Milan isin good shape and has taken on only afew pounds in the winter months. Tnelittle fellow is as quiet as usual and hadnothing to say about himself, except tnat Jhe hoped the club would prove a winner!this year and that he would be a bigfactor in making it so. If Clyde can hitthe ball as in the days of 1908, there willbe nothing to it but a cakewaik.

A telegram reached Manager MeAleer ilate yesterday afternoon from "Doc" IGessler, saying that the illness in his!family was not so serious as was thought!and that h<> would join the learn Tues- jday. This was pleasing news to MeAleer.!as h<> wants to see the big fellow andget him buckled down to hard work as1toon as possible.Tom Crooks, the Washington boy who

is to assist Bob Unglaub in guarding firstbase this season, failed to get in the pio-ture with the other players, as he re¬mained out on the landing too long. Aparty of friends brought Tom down to thelanding in an automobile, and he found itdifficult to puU himself away until thewhistle blew for "all aboard."

Although the weather at Hot Springs,Ark., has not been of the best, it hasnot put the Washington players backvery much. The following dispatch wasreceived last night from Schaefer:"BoyB getting along fine. MeAleer

will let you know when we are to re¬port." SCHAEFER.When MeAleer was asked about the

Hot Springs group reporting at Norfolk,he said that he had not yet decided,but that he thought he would let themstay out there for another week atleast. He continued:"Elberfeld writes me that he is getting

along nicely over at the Virginia HotSpiings and I may also let him stay thereanother week It all depends upon theweather at Norfolk If the sun comesout good and hot I may order the boysoutside to come at once, so that wecan all get acquainted and work to¬gether."

It is more than likely that GeorgeStone has played his last game with the/St. Louie Browns. According to theMound city pap^r*, Stone's salary hast*en sliced off $1,50U, and the hard hit¬ting outfielder has refused to sign hisc< ntract. George started out last seasonat a great clip, hitting away over thecoveted .:>*> mark, but was injured andknocked off his stride. As a result hehad a bad season, and it is generallyunderstood that President Hedges triedto trade him at the last meeting of theAmerican League in Chicago.

as Richardson, but showed a fine knowl¬edge of the game, and although the mid¬dy broke away from several difficult po¬sitions, he finally succumbed to a bodyhold after eight minutes and ten secondsof very grueling work. Both men show¬ed the effects of the strain plainly.Although Princeton won the star bout,

the middies managed to win out in theother heavy events. In the light-heavy,or 17i-pound class, Weema, the star ofthe navy team, got the shoulders of Wellsof Princeton down after six minutes ofhard work, while Sowell (navy) and A.H.

WHAT'S THE MATTERWITH HIGH JUMPERS?

Am was Intimated in The Star a day orso ago, there was no high-jump eventfor th« South Atlantic States champion¬ship title in last night's meet. Thisevent was omitted by^lanager McNultybecause of the fact that but one entrywas reoeived. As the rule regarding thenumber of entrants in a championshipeveat has been construed to make atleast three entries necessary for an eventof this nature, there was nothing else forhim to do but to take the action describedabove.It seems as if, with jumpers of such

well known ability as Walcott, Curtis,L<arry Martin. Holliday, Randolph, Boet-tenger, Ward, Connelly. Timanus, Lowand Lester, interest in athletics is not as

it should be in the South Atlantic Associa¬tion, unless, as has been suggested before,the absence of the event on the entryblank and the lack of advertisementgiven it was responsible for its beingoverlooked.The president of the South Atlantic As¬

sociation, Dr. D. E. Wiber, who hascharge of the Washington assignments ofthe championship events, when seen by aiftar representative last night, statedthat he was undecided just what actionhe would take toward giving the athletesanother chance at this event, but thathe would Iool; into the matter carefullyand make his decision in a few days. Itis understood, however, that .either theJohn Hopkins-Fifth Regiment games,which will be held in Baltimore next Sat¬urday night, or the National Guard Ath¬letic Association meet, which will bepulled off on the evenings of March UQand 31, will probably get the event. Asthe entries have already closed for theJohns Hopkins-Fifth Regiment games,and as Baltimore has already been as¬signed more than its share of theseevents, the chances favor the guards-men.

I DON'T WANT TO CLAIM ANYTHING, BUT I AM CONFIDENT MY TEAMWILL WIN MANY GAMES AND GET OUT OF LAST PLACE, SAYS MR.McALEERCOOL as the proverbial cucumber was Manager James R.

McAleer during the bustle and excitement of gettingthe team off for Norfolk. When asked about the out¬

look for the coming season Mac replied that he was never

strong for the predicting stuff, but that he thought the Wash¬ington team was better than many of the wiseacres believed.His first aim will be to get out of last place, and then to climb

up the ladder, if possible."Base ball is chuck full of luck, and if we get a fair share

of the horseshoe variety I will promise the Washington fanssome very good games of base ball. I am confident the play¬ers will do their best for me, and if this best is not satisfactorywe will have to go gunning for others. Good ball will not dofor me.I want winning ball."

McAleer does not like to be interviewed, and would sooner

talk to a newspaper man in confidence and let the latter use his

judgment as to what makes good reading.During the conversation Sir James intimated that he was

not worrying over the outlook, as he had been too long in the

NOT WORRYING.

JAMES R. McALEER.

business for that, but that he would feel more comfortable ifhe was sure of his outfield hitting around the .300 mark. Heis confident his infield will come out strong, likewise his pitch¬ers and catchers, but if the outfield trio were of the sluggingvariety McAleer would doubtless sleep better at nights.

"I know that Walter Johnson, Gray, Groom and Reislingwill show better this season than ever before," said McAleer,"and I also believe in the ability of Walker. Say these men

should come up to expectations, wouldn't the staff be a corker?"The infield is mostly made up of veterans, but thpse are

the boys you want around the base lines and home plate whenthe ticklish plays come up. Youngsters may be pulling themout of the skies with one hand, but with three on bases a

slashing drive, to the ground generally demonstrates a man'sworth or his worthlessness. The "fans' will quickly forgive an

error on a hard play, but will stir up the dust on a foozle ofan easy chance, and I am with them on that point.

"Good-bye, old pal. Be around when we get back andthen judge for yourself whether I am any good as a prophet."
