BROKEN-BACKED GIANTS
DESPAIR OF LOCAL BASEBALL LOVERS.
HARVARD AND YALE CHAMPIONSHIP UNSETTLED
TO REDUCE CLUB SALARIES.

/
q, baseball ut present is when, how and where tie
| New York cub proposes to strengthen It's team' IT
would be simple idlocy for the club TO at'cmpt 70
start the second championship season on July 10
with It's present aggregation. The directors seem 70
lie oyercnuous about releasing certain players, fear
| ing that they may go to some other team ana pay
good ball II Gore, OROnrke, Richardson and Others
can play ball in some other city then let them %
Inv all means for their efforts here are certainly na
| appreciated Just what has been the trouble In tAe
| NewYork team nobody seems to know, Powers lin
self being rs much in the darh as ANYBODY else.
Powers has made the success antcipated ana thess
are other requirements besides being royal good
! fellow necessary to make competent manager haa
Powers insisted upon managing the team from the
fort his lines would have been cast in more pleasant
nJaces than they are at present. lie could not have
adopted better policy than that used By the veteran
| . Harry Wright. Wright is manager IN all that the
| term implies, and he not only puts the team In the
field to suit himself ard nobody else but he directs
mis- men while on the field He says that he Is held
ros ponsibe for the team, and he proposes 10 nave
the PLAYERS obey lin in everything If they win hs
gets his share OF credit, and II they lose he Is per-
fectly satisfied to stand the consequences wright
even directs his when they 60 ID the bat telling
| them lust what kind OF ball To strike at Powess
tried this plan, but the veteran players Of the New.
York club who think they know 1t all, DID as they
n,eased and the matter ended there.
II will probably always be question with some
neople whether Harvard Yale has the better team,
simply because the question OF supremacy mas been
left unsettled, each team having won a game 10
their second series. Yale seems content WIN having
| broken even with Harvard. and does not care 70
risk another battle aga.nt the mighty Highlands.
| In case a t.lri game could be arranged Oh Neutral
| Grounds the crimson would be a favoilte among al
close students OF baseball. Bowers fales P'chas
deserves much credit for hi, work against the Ha''
ward batsmen at New-Haven. lie said Delore tns
game that if he could hold Harvard down ior tnres
! or four runs Yale would win the game. frhcc''he
moor showing was a severe blow to the followers o.
| tho Jerssv tiger Young the pitcher, on whom y
much drpended did not show his true form unal
that third YaleP1nceton game at the fV'o P'ula~
The Yale men, having won the two previous games
were apparently Indifferent, and their diserunted "on
