TINE feature of the p S, A. L.

THE feature Of the P. S, A. L.
basketball tournament thus far
has been the noticeable lack OF
any consistent and effective team WORK.
Taken altogether, the teams 40 mol
show any more knowledge OF inside
work than should have been gained by
the second week Of the league season
at the latest. without exception the
aves are relying on individual stars

method as long as team boasts crack
players enough, such system does not
gain much for the boys as far as their
knowledge of the fine points OF the
game Is concerned.
The best PROOF that stars and not
team work are being relied on Is the
fact that tho majority OF the points
scored by the teams up to date have
been made by one man on each team.

Hero of Thousand Diamond
Battles Will No Longer
Wear Giant Uniform.
BY BOHEMIAN BULGER.

A GE, the old-t!me champion. has
~ added one more notch to MS
1 \ string. This greatest OF all title
holders has met ali corners since Adam
was thrown out OF the Garden OF Eden,
and as yet he fails to show solitary
blotch on his fair escutcheon. This time
Il was Joe McGinnity, the hero OF
thousand diamond battles, who made
bid for the belt but old Age set hlmeslf
for the rush, and at the first blow Joe
went down for the count. All others
have gone the same way. Just ahead OF
Joe went Dan Mccain; ahead OF him
went Tommy Corcoran, and thus It has
gone since baseball became national
necessity. The scalps OF all the great
heroes that ever lived can be found dan
Cling from the belt OF this same old
champion.
The loss OF Joe McGinnity is one OF
the hardest blows that ever landed in
big league circles. Everybody takes Il
as a personal loss, for Joe was loved by
all It Is certain that he will not wear
the New York uniform again. All Of
last year he manoeuvred to dodge old
Age, and he had the encouragement OF
every man on the club from John Nc
Graw TO the bat boy It was never In
tended that he should win, however, and
down he went.
McGraw Sorry to Lose Him.
The Job OF baseball manager is not an
easy one, especially for a man who
loves his team mates. McGraw realized
early last season that McGnnity had
started on the togoggan from whence
no major league ball nlayer returns,
but he held on, hoping against hope. AZ
the end OF the season he still had hopes
but when the young fellows bobbed W
with their contracts In the winter Nc.
Graw knew that McGinnity would have
10 90. In the hope that ne might Sc
cure tho Iron Man a good berth he
asked for waivers on his services. Il
nobody claims Joe, then McGraw vii! b.
