Pirates denies emphaticaIIy that "Toots"

versitv of PENNSYLVANIA, is the dark horse"
who appears on the Pittsburg roster as 'one
other player" but the statement is made
on good authority that such is the case.
A new method of training players TO be-
come champion batsmen has been evolved
by Clark Griffith, manager of the Cincinnati
National League team. a consignment or
small balls and small bats has been shipped
to the training grounds at Hot Springs,
Ark. and the men will use these in the pre-
lininary practice When they take up the
larger bats and regulation balls IT is ex-
pected they will have little difficulty in hit
ting the most battling curves that opposing
pitchers can serve to them.
Griffith maintains that the player who
can hit small ball with a small bat should
be able to meet" large ball with a large
bat squarely nine times out of ten.
IT'S one of my pet IDEAS says Griffith

will he a good thing. Anyway, l am going
