Will Take Up Hughey's

next. promises to be the most sensa-

in many moons. John DAILY, the old
warhorse of the Irish-American Club,
who won the title in 1907, will be on

he has not the style of a Bonhag,
Bellars or Collins, but when it comes
to grit. ability to plug away appar-

LOOKS GREATEST EVER
This Year Some Great Ball Players Have Been
!. Developed and Some Of Them Are
Well Known Locally.

Tsy VERY year, after the close of the big league sea-
m sons, there is always a great deal of wrangling
s&z4 to decide which of the many men who earn their
salt by playing tn national game is the most proficient
in his particular p osition, with the result that it has be-
come the custom of the experts to select a socalled "An
American team for the year.
The past season has been no exception and the dopes
are at their work again To pick a team composed of the
best men is aim ost purely a matter of personal opn-
ion. Batting averages are the principal things that are
taken into consld GRAFTON, because a man outside of the
twirling departme mt who can hit hard is always of more
service to a team than a man who can field well but
hits only fairly w ell. A man who can hit well is gen
orally a good all around player, because batting is the
first requisite of a good ball player and the other neces-
sties-felding and throwing-are more easily acquired,
and not so valuable as hitting.

year who have sh own up exceptionally well. Dots
