Somehow or other Connie Mack thought
for long, long time that Mr.. Vickers hai
the goods and needed only little polishing
to bring them out. Connie polished and pol
ished and kept polishing for about three
seasons, but. strange to say. Mr.. Vickers
failed to come through with the rea
stuff, and the elongated Mr.. Mack finally
shipped him back to the minors. where
he will presumably stay till his diamond
career is over.
During Mr.. Vickers' sojourn with the
Athletics he showed frequent flashes OF
class. and when going we'll had consider
able power behind his curves. Whenever
the RUDE found himself swinging along
at nice gait he became chuckful Of am
bition. self-confldence and chestiness
Connie never rebuked him. called him
down or made him feel cheap in any man
ner. He let the natural course of events
and the opposition batsmen tend to that
and it was always tended to.
Mr.. Vickers Was Chesty.
Along in the spring OF 1907 Mr.. Vickers
was going great guns, and felt as good
as though he were Brown and Mathew
son conjoined. On the first western trip
of the Athletics he showed all sorts of
speed and shoots; all the hostiles fell be-
fore him, and when he reached Chicago
he was the chestiest young man in North
America. When the Athletics went out TO
Comiskey's park for their opening game

and he struck out seven men. The first
batter to face him in the fifth stuck out

it. the batsman hopping down to hrst.
The second man hunted, and when Mr..
Vickers rent after the bunt he fell down,
the runner easily reaching base: Then the
third man hunted. and again Vlckers was
unable to reach the BALI in time. With
the bases full, the next man put a
short single in right. scoring one man.
Mr. Vickers, somewhat agitated. sent in
a fast ball. It was hit right back at him,
and he juggled it, finally throwing wild
and letting in two runs, while there were
runners perched on first and third.

Then the White Sox pulled a double

he was released to Richmond during the

He should have no trouble to make the

The outlaw league was formed for the
purpose of giving berths to men who
failed to land them in the Virginia
League. as much as any other considera-
ton. President Hannah was a candidate
for the position Of president of the Fir-
ginia League. He had the backing Of
Norfolk but Williams got the berth.
Then Wynne Clarke had to be provided
for. for the new owners announced right
from the jump that they did not need
him for the Norfolk franchise. At first
they were not going to fight the Virginia
League. but every move in the past month
has been made with that in view, for
everything has been sparring for van

dictate his policy toward the outlaw cir
