Such 4 man can pile up errors. and hit
poorly and still ne is kept on a team be-
cause he has a past record. How DIFF
ferent is the treatment accorded 70 young
blood-a new man. Let him make a
few errorS-no more than the season
ed player-and he Is placed on the
bench at once. or release perhaps. The
same holds good as regards his hitting.
The youngster gets no chance 10 show
how he can develop. Hs must play
faster ball than his predecessor-he
does not receive an opportunity 10 I'M
prove in his playing-or ne won't do and
he gets the bounce, while the old boy.
with no future before him, is allowed
10 glide back into his old place. League
teams have no time TO develop players.
They must be good at once Verify.
with such conditions existing. and the
farming OUT practice not regulated.
the berth Of a youngster is not a most
GeSira BILE one.
