WHAT THE GIANTS
 WILL HAVE FOR PITCHERS
Fourteen in the Ranks-Seven of Them Are Recruits of Great Promise.

When the Giants line up for spring training at Marlin Texas in about q month, Manager McGraw will have fourteen pitchers. seven veterans and seven new comers. The Giants leader of course feels confident that Christo pher Mathewson again will be the n1ainstay in the box, and he expects much from DruclSe, the young Texan, and Otis Crandall, the stocky twirler who can hit as well as pitch. But there is reason to believe that the New York manager is not so sure of Hooks Wilfse, Red Anes and Arthur Raylnond and therefore is anxious to develop, if possible, at least, one ol two new pitchers who will keep the Team $ strength Tn this respect up to the required notch Wiltse. one of the best left handed pitchers. appear ed to lose his grip a triflc last year, while Ames was never a known quarl- tity. Raymond because of his cratic behavior was sad failure and did not figure at all.
 Bugs" Has Reformed.
 Raymond is said to have placed himself under the care of a gold cure specialist this winter and has assured McGraW that he will report at Marlin in fine health, ready to live up to the clubs rules and able to pitch as well as ever. This is gratifying informal tion, no doubt. but McGraw says that SO0lflS Is OCllcNlIS ciAiSt liAett 1AS M III not count too much on the big pitch er'S promises.
 Drueke, coached by Matty until he pitched like him, came along rapidly last fall, bat simply lacked experience C'randaIl won d large percentage or his games and displayed enough class to warrant his turn as q regular. So taking these things into consideration it is figured that McGraw's relying on Matty, Drucke and Crandall to do a large share of the work.
 McGraw also has Marquard, the s11. coo left handler, on his staff. and has not given up the task of trying to steady this young Hoosier: Me Graw thinks that Marquard will come around as he gfows older and learns the ropes, but in this belief the Giants, manager stands practically alone. If Marouard could pitch in a game as well as he warns up before one he would be world beater, it is thought

NATIONAL LEAGUE ROPER.
Who the Managers Have for Spring
 Training.

In two weeks time the National league teams will begin pouring some thing like $150,00O into the strong boxes Of southern railroads and hotels. ruuy leo athletes who hope to ca Vort on the grounds of the National circuit this season will be looked over oy keen-eyed managers with hopes of Hndlng timber of championship form.
 Holdouts are very few this wear 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 34 men at Marlin Springs. Tex, by March l, and Manager Dahlen of the Dodgers expects to have 30 ball tossers at the Hot Springs, Ark. by that time, in case John Hummel. Brooklyn's only holdout, gets in line. The Phillies had 39 men on their reserve list. Pitts burgs roster includes 37 men and there are 36 on the list of the Chicago Cubs. It does not require secondsight to foretell that before the season opens on April 12 many of the aspir- ing youngsters will be sent back to the minor leagues for further season. ing
 Following are the rosters of the National league teams for the season of 1911:
 Manager, John J. McGraw.
 Catchers-Meyers, Wilson. Sehlei, Hartley.
 Pitchers-Mathewson F'randall, Mar quard, Ames. Wiltse, Hendricks, Drucke. Rudolph, Jenkins, Tesreau, Shontz Rustenhayen, Nagle, Ray mond.

but McGraw has yet to find how he can keep the Hoosier on the ground with out the use of weights.
 The seven new pitchers are Ru- dolph of Toronto, Hendricks of. Vree- land, Mich, Shontz of Dallas, Jenkins of Pektn, Ill.,, Testreau of Shreveport Nagle of Elnlira and Rustenfaven, wno pitched for the Cheyenne Indians last year. Rudolph is well known here. He did excellent work for the To- ronto Eastern league team last sea- son and was seen in Giant uniform at the Polo Grounds in the fall. He pitched against the Philadephias in one game, but did not overeAert him. self. as there was nothing at stake. < Rudolph has a graceful delivery and puszlnc curves, but he seems trifie small in build.
 Some Giants Among the Recruits. Hendricks, 200 pounder, is a left handed pitcher, well seasoned and n McGraw's favor. He was serfsation around Chicago l.tst summer, when McGrath gathered him in. Hendricks has great control, his best point, and he looks big enough to stand any amount of work.
 Another big fellow is Tesreau. Hs iss feet } inches tall and weighs 229 pounds. He makes Matty look small when they stand side by side. Tesreau attracted McGraws S attention when he pitched against the Giants in Shreve- port last spring and, as the biz fellow more than held his own during the Texas league season following, Me- 1 Graw decided that he was worth a trial.
 Jenkins also belongs to the heavy
 weight class. He pitched thirty eight
 games and won twenty seven of them for the Pekin team in the Illinois, Mis- souri league last year, PelSin winning the pennant. Incidentally Jenkins struck out 242 batsmen and gave 32 bases on balls.
 Shontz, like Drucke, went through his paces ill Texas and last year he became a sensatoon in the Lone Star state Shontz won 19 games and lost nine, his good work helping Dallas to win the championship in 1910.
 Two Little Men.
 Rustenhaven, 8 left handler pitched great ball among semi professionals in the west last year, winning 45
 games losing four and drawing one. If he has a weak point it is in physical proporti. ns for he is very short and light. But he has plenty of nerve.
 Nasle won IS games and lost eight

The once dainty, devi1ish. delightful Della Fox, whose pictures in cigarette boxes years ago were considered valu. able assets to school boys picture gallery and who has seen the best success on the American stage, came back to Pine Bluff last night and re- ceived good hand from many of her old admirers.
