BEST YOUNGSTERS
SHOWN THIS YEAR
uPP, cRIss, scHNEI5ERe AND
SUMMERS PICK OF AMERICAN
ASSOCIATION PITCHERS.
ALL GOING TO MAJOR LEAGUES
Former, Playing with Columbus This
Season, Has Best General Record
cries Regarded as Best All Round
Man Because of His Ability as a
Batter and Fielder.


The American association season Of
1907 has developed four young pitch.
ers who have attracted wide attention
and who stand out conspicuously as
the real finds of the year in minor
league baseball. These men are Upp
of Columbus; Criss, St. Paul; Sum.
mers, Of indianapolis, and Schneiberg,
of Milwaukee.
Upp and Summers have already
been secured by big league teams.
Summers by Detroit and Upp presum-
ably by the st. Louis browns. Schnel-
berg is spoken for by Connie Mack,
and st. Louis wants Criss badly. It is
too bad that they are to be taken into
bigger company at the close of this
season. Another year in the Ameri-
can season with the certainty of rsgu.
lar work would make them ripe. ;"
Too often young pitchers go up only
to go stale from long sessions on the
bench and they are never right again.
or these four Upp is the most talked
about for the reason that he has
pitched regularly from the beginning
of the season and has been a star from
the very first game he twirled for Co
lumbus. Schneiberg was the real
wonder the first month of the season.
He then had setback and was lost
sight OF, but Is closing stronger than
ever. Summers was not given any
chance up to five weeks ago, and has
not pitched as often as the others.
Criss Is the least known generally OF
the three because he has pitched in
only a few games and has been used
as a utility player.
Upp has the best general record, of
course. Criss is the best all-around
man because of his terrific batting
and his ability in any outfield or in
field position. Summers is the most
immature of the four. Schneiberg i'm.
presses one as the least brilliant.
Summers and Criss have suffered in
the matter OF records, due to the fact
that they have been often stuck In
after the game was lost.
Upp is a southpaw-the other three
are right-handers.
All but Opp age unusually large,
strong men. Schneiberg and Criss are
giants in btature. and strong, well-pro-
portioned ball players. Summers is
tall, but not heavy, and Upp is slen.
der.
UDp has appeared to be the most
resourceful pitcher of the quartette
Schneiberg has on numerous occa-
sions seemed to lack head" in a tight
pinch, although he has pulled out
some stiff games, Summers is cool,
easy-going youngster, with plenty OF
steam, but inclined to wildness
Criss promises better than any Of
the others, but is the crudest pitcher
OF the bunch. He is but boy yet
and without experience. But he is
natural ball player He has great
arm, tremendous speed and curves
which break with unusual rapidity
and a wide shoot. He is not easily
ratified, being OF an easy temperament.
The more he works the better he likes

he has ia the past year, he Ia assured

pitchers OF the country.

San Francisco, Aug. 19.-Five cases
of bubonic plague, four Of which have

Prompt and active measures were
taken by the local, state and Federal
authorities, and spread of the disease

Simon, of the health board, and Health
Officer James 7. Watkins stated today
that the situation is well in hand and
no occasion exists for alarm. The in
