Speed Is something that baseball
managers try TO gain. They want
fast men. They want men who can
move down TO first like quarter
horses: men who can 80 round the
bases at racing clip, and men VINO
can pursue the ball in record time.
And yet, strange as il may seem, there
are limits to the speed which man
ayers desire. and a man who is TOO
fast is almost as much in the way as
a man who is too slow. Paradox anu
impossibility? II might seem so, ana
yet any manager will frankly state
that he breads the presence OF his
team or an overspeedy man.
Years ago" says John McGraw,
"the New York Giants tried 10 figure
out some way of getting extreme speed
upon the team. II was agreed that II

was argued that Bernie could beat out

that he would be the greatest thing

"Wefers was dead willing and we
proceeded to show him the angles or
batting and fielding. The fielding
came all right-he was soon able to
take care of outfield flies--and he
proved fast learner at the bat. Then
he went on a spring training trip, and
everybody expected that Bernie |
Wefers would be regular outfielder
Of the Giants when we returned.

stunt. When he was supposed TO steal |
