PITCHERS NO BETTER THAN IN
THE OLD DAVIS.

Ward Is convinced that the pitchers
OF to-day are no better than those of

In my time as a ball player many
OF the players entered professional ball

to travel about and see the country.
Some OF them went into the game with
the Idea OF remaining only a year or
two. few OF them giving the least
