It's queer thing" said President
Navin of the Detroit club, that
out of the $1,000, O0J people of the United
States and the S.GG0,G0O of Canada that
there are less than 300 first-class ball
players. Probably there are actually
more capable of playing in the big

keeps a lot of scouts and pocketbooks
busy.

Big league umpires are lax about call
ing balks Without rejecting on the
ability Of the chief jumps" comments
critic lit can be stated without danger
of contradiction that the officials have
been somewhat lax in strictly enforcing
the rules, and time after time runners
have been nipped off bases at critical
times, materially changing the ultimate
outcome of the games.
The Athletic fans are sore because Con-
ME Mack let NICHOLS out. Whenever
Barry makes boot some of the fans
yelp for Simon. They claim that
Nichols is as good as many shortstops
in either big league, and in some cases
their superior Nichols has been playing
fine ball for Baltimore. Perhaps Dunno
may make another deal such as when he
sold Jack Knight back to the ma jors
and received a nice lump sum Of 5000.

Sporting News

Since the recent meeting OF the
Sport Writers association papers of
the circuit seem inclined to take up
pretty fight with the Quincy Journal
on whae the latter should give and not
give publication to. The position Of
the Quincy Journal is so we'll known
that it hardly need be explained But
the point is just Shis: The Gate City
sport writer was unable to attend the
recent sport writer's meeting in Mon
mouth. but from what can be learned
from reports Of it, the sport writer's
did not get to the root of the matter
in criticising the Journal. Now the
papers resume the tactics Of CRITICS.
Jag that paper and giving Quincy
lowered standing throughout the cir
cult 1t Is to be admitted that the
Journal may have had an i'll effect
upon baseball in the Gem City, and
that personalities are involved, but
from what We have read, many of the
criticisms are based on real facts and
President Harry Hofer has been slow
10 cover up his weaknesses. For a
city of over forty thousand people
Quincy is weak somewhere in a base
ball way and it is hard to see how the
Journal is responsible for 1t all"
Speaking at long range, the sport writ
ers of the league would do great
deal better by not quoting the Journal
in regard to baseball matters other
than news, and permit the Quincy pa.
pers to run Quincy; Burlington papers
run Burlington; as far as dope is con.
cerned. Quincy is only being given
weak name throughout the circuit by
all this "fatherly'' criticism. The
Journal is entitled to its opinion. II
the Hawk-Eye or Kewanee Star Courier
want to write editorials 1t would be
better to boost Quincy throughout the
circuit than to consume space in con
veying the Journals view in the same
