is said to be incorporated for $16,-
600. AL VIM, former president of
the Lowell club, is at the head of
the league.
The Sacramento team will re-
ceive two southpaws from the Bos-

of two portwingers, the Capital

BY ADDIE JOSS.

One of the toughest things the
manager of ball club has to do in
the performance of his duties is the
act of yanking a pitcher off the fir
ing line. To be able to call the turn
on whether or not to remove the
slab artist, who to put in his place
and when to grab him, requires a
lot Of judgment
There is no way by which the
boss can tell just what the result
is going to be, no matter what he
does. It's simple thing to sit in
the stands, after shift has been
made and the "wrecking crew." as
the relief pitcher is sometimes
termed. has failed to stop the oppo-
sition from hitting, for the fan to
say: We'll. why didn't he leave in
the first man? They did not hit him
any harder than the next fellow"
Sure, but had the man that
started the game been left in to get
good beating, the same fellow
would have howled murder" be-
cause he was not taken out.

when it appears as though they are
destined to get a fine trimming. is

MGRAW WANTS VETERAN
TO AID CHRISTY MATHEWSON

Mathewson will again be Nc
Graw's standby as a pitcher this
season. The big fellow will get
a fine raise in salary, for McGraw
believes that he is just as good
as ever, and dopes it that one
grand, reliable pitcher is two
thirds OF the pennant.
The Giant leader figures on
bolstering up several positions so
that Big Six will have support such
as he got in 1905 and 1904, when
he respectively won 81 and 33
games. In 1903 Matty bagged 80
victories. In 1906 he fell below
McGinnity. who was there with q,
but in 1908 he won 81 games and
last season had % to his credit.
Camnitz also won %, and Brown
copied 81 These three were the
leaders.
McGraw has a whole bunch of
youngsters-Drucke, Daily, Parson,
Temple, Klawitter, Bell, Dickson,
Scott and Holmes-besides the old
boys, Crandall, Vanguard, Wiltse
and Ames. But it is likely that he
will hook in a couple of veterans to

RELIEVE YOUNG PITCHERS FROM
FEAR OF BEING YANKED OUT

always the proper move and many
a game is won because change of
this kind is made at the right time.
AT the same time, though, there
can be such a thing as yanBing a
tWirler too soon.
One of the main essentials to a
pitchers success is the fact that he
feels the manager has complete
confidence in his ability to trim the
opposition. 1t can readily be seen
that, knowing your manager feels
that way about it, does not lessen
the confidence you have in your
self. and just this feeling itself wins
many game.
Just the moment twirler knows
that if there are two base hits made
in succession on him. his manager
Is going to have two or three of the
bench warmers down in one corner
of the lot warming up, tends to
make the twirler lose confidence in
himself, and once this feeling
grasps him, good day, Mr.. Pitcher.
1t isn't a bad idea at all, espe-
cially with yOungster on the slab,
to let him know before he starts
the game that he is going to be
kept in there unless they hit him
so hard he yells for help himself.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1910-01-24

help Matty, rather than depend
upon new talent. History shows
that pennants have been won by a
few crack pitchers. Brown, Pfeis-
ter, Overall and Reulbach made
good for Chance. Adams did not
figure for Pittsburg until the
pennant series. 1t was Camnitz,
Willis, Maddox and Liefield that
kept Clarke up in the race. Plank,
Bender, krause and Morgan did the
bulk of the work of Connie Mack,
while Summers, Donovan, Mullin
and Willett turned the trick for
Jennings.
Raymond was great disap-
pointment for McGraW last season.
He figured that Bugs could win
two-thirds of 80 games. With
Matty good for 80 and Bugs" for
20, he thought he had an edge on
the other clubs. But Raymond
threw his down and the dope was
all off. McGraw now wants, more
than anything else, seasoned
veteran just as good as Raymond,
but more reliable. He'll have hard
time securing such a pitcher, and

was in 1895 that Nelson set the
mile record at 2:36 flat. All these
and many records still stand.
Skating records, from so yards to
100 miles, prove that up to 100
yards it is a pretty even thing be-
tween skaters and cinder path fly
ers, the advantage being with the
later, If anything. The 100 yard
record for skating is 9 3-5 seconds,
as it is the recognized record for
100 yard sprinters. The quarter
mile in 80 is seconds on ice by j..
X. McCulloch, is far ahead of Massey
Longs AZ seconds for the same dis
lance on the track, and the 1920 2-5
of J. Nilsson for the half mile is
much longer than Emilio Lunghi's
record of 1852 is.
But, getting back to the original
question, aren't the ice kings of to-
day as fast as when Johnson, Dono-
ghue ct al were doing things to the
records? Or do the modern city
Kinks so handicap the speeders that
they have no chance to make the
time the old timers did on the riv-
crS and lakes?
