OLD LEAGUE STRONG
ON VETS AND RECRUITS
Eight Clubs Will Have Nearly $50
Players to Try Out This
Spring.
FEW HOLDOUTS CAUSE
MANAGERS NO ANXIETY
McGraw Will Have Imposing Array
of Twirlers at Marlin Be-
sides Regulars.

In two weeks time the National
League teams will begin pouring some
thing like s1JOOOO into the strong boxes
of southern railroads and hotels. Fully
go athletes who hope to cavOrt on the
grounds of the national circuit this sea-
son will be looked over by keen-eyed
managers with hopes of finding timber
of championship form.
IIoldouts are very few uls year and
the different clubs expect every man on
their rosters to be in line when the
journeys to the south are expected to
begin. Manager McGraw will have thirty
four men at Marlin Springs, Tex, by
March l, and Manager Dahlen of the
Dodgers expects to have thirty balltossers
at Hot Springs, Ark, by that time, in
case John Hummel. Brooklyn's only hold
out, gets in line. The Philies had thirty
nine men on their reserve list. Pitts
burg's roster includes thirty-Seven men,
and there are thirty-six on the list OF the
Chicago Cubs. It does not require sec
ond sight to foretell that before the sea-
son opens April II many of the aspiring
youngsters will be sent back to the minor
leagues for further seasoning.
