Marvin w. Peasley, husky-exponent
OF the art OF left-handed heaving,
found his way into the headquarters
OF the Detroit Baseball club Thursday

Mr.. Peasley came direct from his

Mr.. Peasloy can look forward with
pleasure to season in which ne Is

but Malachi Kittrege's enthusiasm and
the added fact that Peasley's home Is
only a few miles from the residence
OF Jack Coombs, the peerless twirler
of the Athletics, determined Mr..

Hughie Jennings Faces Crisis
With The Tigers This Year

on the field OF play. Clubs can
continue 10 win when players merely
don't like one another. When they
carry their dislikes 10 such pitch
that signals are ignored and mates
are sacrificed to personal spleen. IL
Is time for the manager 10 deal with
no uncertain hand.
Detroiters still shudder when they
recall the cheerful way in which at
least two OF Hughes men dehed dis
cipline last year. The spectacle OF a
third, writing letters to the papers
In which he alleges that he Is being
unfairly treated, Is not a pleasant
one. regardless OF the allowance that
must be made for the mans poor
taste and mental eccentricity.
Detroit has generally an abundance
OF confidence that Hughie jennings
will handle the 1911 problems with
the same good judgment that has fea-
tured his work In the past But that
these problems are far more difficult
than anything Hughie has faced here
In former years cannot be denied.
Nor Have We Forgotten.
Hushie Jennings has achieved the
most marvellous record ever engraved
on the tablets Of the national game.
He entered the league in 1907 and
won three pennants for his adopted
city. In but one season h4s the club
failed TO lead its rivals to the finish
and, on that occasion IL finished in
third place. Detroit bugs who insist
on 1911 pennant win, and are pre-
pared for no other standard Of sue
cess, amply deserve that disappoint-
ment which Is very probable in store.
But we shall all expect to see the
1911 Tigers rejuvenated to certain
extent in personnel, and working to-
gether, while on the field. TO the COM
mon end OF team success.
IT'S UP TO HUGHIE TO MAKE
THIS EXPECTATION A REALITY.
The Detroit times. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1903-1920, 1911-02-24

aggressive qualities OF the team,
missing last year, must be restored.
More important yet Is the decision
which Hughie must make regarding
some OF the veterans OF the club.
Has the time come for a big shin
and an experiment all along the line
In positions now held by the stars OF
former years7 Or are the veterans
still good enough TO win with? Hughie
will answer not only for 1911 but for
seasons years ahead.
