baseman are getting ready for throw
and whichever one is to cover the

the delayed steal and all kinds of
plays which will net run in case any
player on the opposite side makes a
bad throw. Always get runner on
first and third, if possible, and it's
worth taking chance at any time"
That the lack of attention 10 those
little things is what loses pennanIs
certainly sounds logical. There is ar
other thing that he says makes ball
games different now. from the days OF
old. The wise New York manager
says there is entirely too much con-
Versation around the bases between
opposing players. Instead OF trying TO
be pleasant, the little manager says
they ought to be on their tiptoes every
minute watching for the next move.
According TO him, the fire in the eye
is the thing. Ask no quarter and give
none.

McGraW Gives Giants JoHs
AS to PenQnt Aspirations

No, that wasn't it, Larry" replied
McGraw; you just didn't see the point,
that's all. Suppose there were two
out, don't you think We would have
had a better chance if you had reach
ed third and the batter had reached
first? The biggest advantage in base
ball is TO have a runner on third and
first and you know it."

McGraw, who likes 10 be asked ques-

Did you know" went on the man
ager, that a large percentage of the
hits in base ball are made when there
are runners on first and third" That
is the best time in the world TO get a
hit, because the whole infield is tight
ened up and stationary. The first
baseman is glued TO his sack and the
third baseman is also held pretty tight

Greensboro, y, c., April s. While
the Giants were scooting across the
piny woods country from Atlanta TO
Greensboro last week the question
of the championship arose, and it was
evident that every player on the team
had the pennant bee buzZing in his
bonnet. At the height of the optimis-
tic powwow Manager McGraw spoke
right out in school and gave some of
the prophets a jolt that they are like
ly to remember for some time TO come
Il think we've got a chance myself"
said McGraw, as he shot this one
straight from the shoulder. but you
boys have got to pay attention 10 the
little details of the game or you'll flop
A dozen games were lost last year just
as you lost that one in Atlanta recent
ly. and if you'll figure it out that doz-
en- of games would have won us the
pennant if the result had been revers-
ed"
What's the idea, Mac"' asked
Capt. Larry Doyle. What have we
been pulling this time?"
why, you are the fellow who pull
ed it yourself" replied the manager.
II suppose you remember when you
got one base in the last inning and
stole second. That was all right in
its way, but you overlooked a chance
to walk TO third and you stood there
tied. There were three balls on the
batter and no strikes. If you had
watched close you would have seen
that the pitcher was working himself
to death to get a strike over. He
would have taken no chances on
throwing to a base and he couldn't af-
ford to pitch out for the batter, as it
would have been four balls. All you
had to do was to walk down to third,
and IF the pitcher had seen you start
it is likely that he would have got
nervous and pitched ball instead of
strike. You failed to do it and died
on second. Those are the things that

Both arrived about the same time.

Meanwhile the COW doctor had
been received by Mrs Patrick in the
house. She took him into the par
lor and showed him the piano.
He looked little queer as she wav-
ed her hand toward the instrument
and remarked quietly that he would
not be able to do anything for it.
Mrs. Patrick took this TO be slur
on the instrument and told him that
if he felt that way she would try and
get some one who really understood
the business. He got little warm
at this and picking up his kit of sur
gical instruments, grabbed his; hat
and went out with his head in the
air.
After both men were well on their
way to town Mr.. Patrick and his
wife met in the house and compared
notes. Meanwhile the COW died and
the piano is still in need of tuning.

said that the United States has the
