IN Yale University hit the nail on
y the head when he said 1.-THE
baseball player comes in all sizes and
all kinds of human packages. l don't
attempt to classify him, beyond certi-
flying to his soundness of wind and
limb. Think of the crack players you
have known here at Yale. Compare
Dutch Carter, six feet three or four,
and as wide as fence post, with Billy
Murphy, the meteoric shortstop, who
afterward played with a big league
nire. Murphy was what the boys
called, as big as a pint of peanuts,
and beside Carter he looked like lit
tie lad in primary school. No. the
baseball man is between five and SIX
feet tall and between 40 and ECO
pounds. big, slim and stocky, fat and
thin, all kinds and conditions. Bar
ring him, we are able to tell, with
profit to the man and to the athletics
of the university, whether a student
will be most successful as a football

Byrne, of the St Louis Nationals;
"Bilr' Purtell, the Child athlete" of
the Chicago White Sox, and Miller
Higgins of the Cincinnati Reds, are
all guarding the difficult corner in
spite of their size, which does not
handicap them in the least. In great
contrast to these men are "Bill' Brad
ley, of the Cleveland Maps, who, until
a few years ago was considered the
peer of them all; Devlin. of the Giants,
and Steinfeldt, of the Worlds Cham

and may be placed in the category of
giants.
The second-sackers are more uniform
in size. although Johnny Evers of the

Cleveland; "Red" Killifer, of Detroit,

Browns, are big and hefty.
