There has been no decline OF base

DAVIS (H|EF PROP Of TH[ TRIBE Of nA(k

Harry Davis, veteran first sacker
OF the Athletics. is sharing with Con-
ME Mack in the adulation OF the
Quaker City fans for the great show
dng the Athletics have been making
all season. Davis Is a veteran who is
not a 1ashy or SNOWY player. but he
knows the inside OF baseball, uses his
head, and according TO Philadelphia
critics Is right now playing the best
baseball OF his life.
AS ball players 60 Davis Is old, he
having passed the thirty-sixth mile
stone OF LIES league. He has been
one OF Mack's mainstays since the
Athletics landed In Philadelphia. and
he appears 70 get better each season.
Davis takes excellent care OF himself.
and Is always ft TO give hts best SER
vices 10 the team.
Hal Chase is about the only first
sacker In either big league who has
anything on this quiet captain OF the
Athletics, but Hal Chase Is credited
with being the most wonderful first
baseman In the business. Davis ap-
pears TO be good for many more years,
and Philadelphia fans are lust begin
ming to appreciate how good he is.
When Mack was I'll this spring, the
critics looked for the Athletics TO
blow up. Davis took charge and the
team cleaned up against Detroit and
other western teams.

Players OF the Sckaefer type are too

do with the accidental discovery of
three of the greatest second basemen
the baseball world has known. and Is
an attempt to tell how they have risen
70 the heights of being numbered

might still be adjoining but for their
accidental discovery.
The men are Larry LaJoie OF the
Maps, Johnny Evers of the Cubs, and
Larry Doyle OF the New York Giants.
I think everyone will agree that these
three are the real goods among the
big league second sackers. But they
didn't begin life as ball players.
