Following the announcement by

Chalmers go" car to each of two
players. one in the National league,
and one in the American league, who
do the most to help their teams, Con-
ME Mack, manager of the worlds
champion Athletics. has telegraphed
Mr.. Chalmers as follows:
Congratulations on your liberality
and enterprise in offering automobile
to the most valuable ball player i'm
each league. The new plan will not
cause individual playing and is en-
tirely unobjectionable. l have talked
to some of our star players and they
will try hard to be licensed-tag pur-
chasers at the end of next season.
pair to draw to-"
Mack has voiced the sentiment of
the leading men in major league base
ball. Mr.. Chalmers proposition to
have the awards to the most valuable
man in each league made by a COM
mittee of newspaper men, removes the
only possible objection to giving priz-
es for baseball prowess. According 10
the new plan a number of the most
skilled baseball critics in the country
will decide not the ability of a player
in any one department but his gener-
al usefulness in all departments. The
onlyWay man can win a Chalmers
"30' in 1911 is to play just the best
ball he knows how all the time.
Awarding the prizes in this way ought
to do a great deal to stimulate loyalty
and whole-hearted effort among our
major-league stars.
