CLARKE GRIFFITH

Later in the day, after the Chicagos
give their first performance on the
local lot, We may be occupying a fat

are the star bOarders and have been
such for about a week, with inter-
walls. It's a queer sensation. this
thing of being so elevated Hereto
fore. we Cincinnatians have had the
habit of looking upward, craning our
necks and diSlocating a spine section
or two in an effort TO get good
view of the leaders. Reversing this
order of things, even if it be only for
a few DAYS. has been q most welcome
and joyful relief And don't think
for moment that the high attitudes
attained by the Reds were not de-
served. Any team that can win five
out of eight games from the Pirates
is performing some. And when you
take into consideration the fact that
in two of the three games lost, the
Reds were but one run to the bad
when the final auditing took place,
more class is added to their perform

covering second base for the Pirates,
for the past two years, has lost his
job He is decorating the bench at

Last year Fred Clarke thought Alb

think quickly. But he filed in very

But this spring a youngster was

the newcomer a wonderful ball play

Clarke talked with him a few mo

He looked good, but he was very

but was suffering from a slump in
every department of his work and
finally Manager Clarke gave Miller a
chance. Before the season opened,
Miller said to a friend, If 1 ever get

off" And it looks now as if he had
not been merely talking through his
hat The fans all agree with him
now, and Clarke would probably in
cur the lasting displeasure of the
patrons if he were TO take Miller out
of the game.
Looks and Acts Like Wagner.
Jack is a mere youngster, scarcely
in his twenties yet, and is big and
awkward. He resembles Hans Wag-
neT, somewhat. and, as Jack Ryder
put it, this would not be a cOmpli-

beauty. but, when applied TO ball
playing ability, it is the siuceTest
f1attery Miller is a natural ball play

and run bases. OF course there are
still a few points about the game that
he does not know, but he is learning
rapidly, and the prediction is being
freely made here that before the
present season ends he viii be rated
as the second base ball wonder of
the age, Wagner, of course, being the
first and foremost.

training period He was totally wild
and ineffective, and got no better as
the game progressed. Cantillion took
him out. in pity, and sent Keely IN.
Keely was no better than Johnson,
and seven runs were scored of him in
one INNING.
1t is useless to attempt to conceal
the fact that the showing of the team
to date has been extremely disap-
pointing, In the two games in New
York which were permitted by the
weather, the club scored one run,
while Stallings' men got %. In the
three games with New York on the
home grounds, Washington secured
four in the opener, was shut out in
the second game and scored once in
the third, New York getting one five
and four runs, respectively. SO in
the five games Washington made six
runs and New York IS. Any close
observer of the games could see that
there was something sadly lacking
in the games. Last year, even though
defeats were frequent. the games
were snappy and good to look upon.
But this spring there is a listleness of
demeanor that tells of some hidden
cause, whether sickness, disaffection,
or slowness in rounding to form, 1t
is hard to tell.
