COMING FOR
The 1909 RACE
0'Day is Making Ready to
Report.
WILL ARRIVENEXr WEEK
Manager Has Confidence of
Marion's Fandom.
Will Put Squad Through Stenuout
Work to Condition Men fol-
Season About the Leader.

O1Day is now shaking the dust Of
a winters rest off his shoulders and
packing his grips, preparatory to
starting for Webb park, Ohio for
the annual championship chase of the
Digger team in the Ohio State league,
He will be here next week
Doubtless there are many who are
not in favor of many Of the tactics
of Manager O'Day. There are many
who doubt his ability and many who
do not approve of his methods Of dis
ciplining players. But the average
fan i'm Marion and vicinity is strong
for the little leader and believes that
he win again pilot the Diggers to a
place close 10 the top Of the process
sion.
O'Day is a strenuous leader, in all
that the phrase implies. As soon as
he lands on the ground and gets the
players together he insists on hard
work. He Joins in that himself as
well as attending TO his many other
duties and works as hard to get into
condition as his players. He makes
the squad rum from the bal park to
the hotel and vii! not allow the
players to ride in either direction
even though they arc engaging in
morning and afternoon practice.
There are always some who do not
want the strenuous work and raise
objections but that The squad is in
condition when the opening gong is
sounded is proved by the experience
in the last training season The grill
ing work put Marion players on their
mettle and when opening day came
there was nothing to It. Week after
week, the team played In great form
played really ahead OF It's form be-
cause the men were in the pink OF
condition. That's what will happen
this year Marion players will he in
condition If the manager has any
kind of weather to bring about the
conditioning
There's no point about this game
that GlDay does not "saUvy They
have yet TO put one over ON him in
this league. He came here with a
bunch that looked about right, yet
there were but few OF that crowd
left when the manager left in the
fall. He Is a good Judge of a play
err and not one that he turned away
dlsproved his Judgment. Rescurce'ut
ness too. in mis-. It does not take
him long Ito fiji hole on the team
and three Of the men he brought here
IlaRue, Ketter and Brown, are now
in faster company.
OlDay will build another good team
for Marion this year and he will
give The fans the kind OF baseball
they want to see. When the jour
ney's end is reached next fall there
will be more than one Digger slated
for berths in higher leagues and well,
Marion won't he on the bottom of the
heap.

he is going 20 do himself but also
what his opponents are going to
do There were some wise old
orA's in the Ohio State last year
yet O'Day and Wilson, too, were
pulling off their stunts and getting
away with them right along. They

ODay and Wilson originated
their fake sacrifice and double
steal play and they got away with
It about all season long. The bat
ter according to regulation base
ball. is supposed TO sacrifice with
runners on second and first and
none out. He makes the attempt
but purposely misses the ball. The
runners have started and ere the
other clCb reoovers from it's surprise
the man on second is safe at third
and the other runners has reached
second True. the bail has been
fhrown to third but the catcher
was not ready for the throw and
the third haseman. thrown off his
balance, is not ready to receive 1t.
It's the unexpected that succeeds
in baseball. And either Wilson or
O'Day had to be on second for the
Dfgrers To pull that play off

A team Of mediocre hitters that
are good base runners will keep
far ahead of a team OF slugger1
in the average. It's runs that count
most and PLAYERS who are dead
weights on the bases take more hits
than any other team can get to
bring I'm the runs necessary to win
every day. O'Day expects this years
club 10 do better baserunninS Than
it did last year. He thinks that
an that ds lost in hitting will be
made up in felding and baserun-
ming. If so. the Diggers have
nothing to fear in the Ohio State
league.

Dope For Fans


Kansas City Mo, March 23,-"I
have quit and for no other reason
than that my business here is worth
mCre imam / can make in baseball "
was what Johnny Killing, the Cub
catcher. said today regarding his deci-
sion He has LEASED a large building
here and uses two floors for billiard
rooms His lease has nine years to
run, and he thas sublet the rest OF the
building al good profit He has
about $4,000 invested here.
Although it was only a few days
ago that Johnny KFmg declared that
he expected to play professional base
ball for the next 20 years, he has
decided to retire from the arena and
allow some younger player to con-
Inect with his pay envelope. Johnny
has threatened to quit before when
there vas a mix-up over the salary
question, but this time he evidently
means It, He is perectly satisfied
with the contract offered him by the
Chicago management, Dut he is firm
sas City and lcok after his property
Interests. However, just because John
ny doesn't intend to visit Chicago the
coming summer doesn't necessarily
mean that he intends to pass mp the
national game. The hero of two
worlds Championships will continue
to play baseball, but the scene of his
operations Will be right here, where
he took his first baseball hurdle. John
Is going to organize a semi-prOfes-
sional team and join the City league,
which will Ibe formed at a meeting at
the Coates house tomorrcw.
The Lima team this season will
contain only five men who were
there last season. They are one
pitcher, one catcher, one outfielder,
and two infielders The others are
new men, There are quite a few
Columbus men in the bunch.
Pitchers Picketts and Munk In
fielder Farrow and Outfielder
Green are all Columbus boys ana
Lee Fohl is almost considered such.
Ernie Diehl, the Cincinnati boy
who finished the season with Toledo
year before last ana ht The ball
teu-iflcally, will not be in the game
at all this season In a few weeks
he starts on a five months busi-
ness trip, whAch will carry him
almost around the world.
The White Sox were given a
days trip to the Catalina Islands
by President Comiskey. He left
last night for Chicago via Portland
and the northern route While in
Portland he will make final et-
fort TO induce Fielder Jones to re-
turn TO mis- job as manager Of the
Sox. He does not think the salary
question will interfere in the slight
est but is afraid that Jones really
means to quit the game.

There are two OF the old men

ODay or Wilson been on as many

Farrell they would have given A..

manager is not particularly fast.
