that the Tiger chief knew what he

not say much of his intentions, except
that he intended to remain in New Or

Father Time was not as hard on
the outfielders as he was on the
other departments. His best known
victims in the outskirts were Dan
ny Murphy, Briscoe Lord and Mat
~ Mcintyre. Murphy had to quit
before his time on account of an
injury to his leg, the same as Nor
decai Brown, but Danny is nearer
40 than 80.
Lord came back once before aft
er a trip to the minors, but he is
getting heavy, and is probably in
the bushes for good. Mcintyre, the
Staten Island boy, had long and
honorable career in the big leagues
and gave old Pop grand battle.
In 1901 he played with the Athlet-
les, so he is no longer a spring
chicken.
1t is a strange coincidence, how
ever, that the best batting average
either Lord or eMeIntyre hammered
out in their big league careers was
made in 1911. Bris hit for .312 and
Matty 1928. Last season Mclntyre's
average was half what it was in
1911. In 45 games he batted for only
1857. Lords decline In hitting was
not as marked, but he toppled to
.23S.
