MAKE GOOD AS INSTRUCTORS
Veteran Major Players Are In Big De- mand as Coaches-Where Some
 Are Now Located.

It will notibe long before all the nia- ior league teams are carrying former players as coaches The Giants have the veteran Wilbert Robinson of the champion Orioles of 1894 to direct mat teEs on the lines in addition to Mo Gleason Harry Davis of the Cleve- Graw. The Brooklyns employ Willie Keeler as Dahlen's first lieutenant. The Philadelphias,are paying Paddy Moran to coach the pitchers and steer the base-runners. The Chicago WhitefSox have an able war secretary in Kid Gleason Harry Davis of the Clieve- lands reliesNupon Paddy Livingston.for expert advice and the Betroits are carrying theVold time catchers, Jim Mcclure and Joe Sugden,
 Some of thse young players just breaking into the big leagues never heard of theirsveteran instructors be- fore. Charley Farrell better known as the Duke of Marlboro, who is in the employ of the Boston Nationals as head coach, recently took a youngster in hand and tried to show him some thing about the fine points of the game.
 Say, you big lobster" exclaimed the new recruit, what did you ever do to be telling me how to play ball? Hey?"
 Farrell was dumfounded andlcouldn't speak. John Ward, however, came to his rescue and said:
 Young fellow, I'll tell you what he did! He was theA best catcher in the National league in 1897, when he han dled Rusie and Meekin for the Giants under my management. He also caught great ball for the Chicagos, Bostons, Washingtons and champion Brook lynsl"
 That may be all true," replied the cub, but he's new one on me, and he can't play ball now"
 If you'll listen to his advice" said Ward, you'll succeed" But the re- cruit was as stubborn as the pro- verbal mule and soon drew his walk. ing papers.

VETERANS WERE BEST
0Id-Timers Were More Rugged,
 Says Rhody Wallace.
Nothing Less Than SplIntered Neck or Fractured Spine Would Keep Regular Players Out of Games
 of Pew Years Ago.

'T often wonder just why 1t is," Browns, ''why ball teams of today are forced to carry more than twenty players to make fight for the flag, and even then are sometimes com. pelled to use pitchers in the outfield and outfielders around the infield.
 Now, take the old days. When was working under Pat Tebeau in a Cleveland uniform in the early sos. we went through the season with ex- actly eleven men-and we made fight for it all the way. We had one catcher, Chief Thinner; two pitchers in Cuppy and Cy Young; four infield- CTS, three outfielders and an extra guy, who was supposed to fill any va cant spot, only he had little to do, as the other ten of us were usually on the job, where nothing but a frac- tured spine or badly splintered neck could crowd Us away from the works.
 Young and Cuppy pitched prac- tically every game. Young had as much or more stuff to use than he has now. Both he and Cuppy worked as hard and cracked them over with as much on the ball as they do today.
 Why is it. then. that if eleven men were enough then, twenty or more are not enough now? Why is it that if two pitchers could work through a schedule, six or seven can't turn the trick without sore arms, breakdowns, lame backs or something else to crowd them away from the field?
 "Why, I've seen Trimmer work with broken fingers, have seen him bind them up with tape and still catch great ball. I've seen infielders badly spiked, and they no more thought of asking for rest than they thought of asking John D. Rockefeller for his share of the oil business. They were out there to play ball and these things were part of the game. And when a ball player was relieved he had tc come pretty near showing a coroner's certificate with a signed autopsy tc get away with it.
 Tt isn't that players of this latter age are any less game, perhaps, but rather that the times have changed We were ball players then. Today they are athletes We were not SC particular, maybe, about our condition through the off hours, hut we were al ways on the field, drunk or sober.
 To-day the athletes take better car, of themselves-are more particula about their condition, but the mana

Ralph Mattis, who was with Wash ington in the spring, is said to be the best outfielder in the Virginia league this season.
 Bob Ewing, the National league vet eran, has been dug out of retirement by George Stallings and set to work with the Buffalo team.
 Some enterprsing theatrical mana ger would make a tremendous hit by signing Germany Schaefer and Nicho- las Altrock for a vaudeville stunt.
 Jimmy Dygert believes that with New Orleans he will be able to pitch some of that kind of ball that made him famous three or four years ago.
 Jimmy Lavender of the Cubs surely has a fine record for a youngster. Be. fore he beat Rube Marquard he pitched 40 innings without being scored upon.
 New namsS appear in the Highland ers' lineup every day. It is only a question of time until Frank Farrell will have an entirely new crew of toss CTS.
 John McGraw today weighs twice as much as he did in 1894, when he played third base for Baltimore. He's making considerably more than twice as much, too.
 The expected slump of the Wash ington team isn't developing. "Can it possibly be-" the fans are asking themselves, "that Griffith really has a team this year?"

Anthony Carlo. the eighteen-year-old left-hander. the property of the New ark club of the International league, was transferred the other day from Terre Haute to Danville of the Three-I league.

It Is getting to be common thing nowadays for the managers of major league baseball clubs to have an as- sistant manager, who does a little scouting work on the side. McGraw has Robinson. Griffith has Schaefer, Harry Davis has Paddy Livingsto on. Dahlen has Willie Keeler. Jennings has Jim Mcclure and Joe Sugden. and Callahan of the White Sox has Kid" Gleason.

 And that's why I was wondering wondering why twenty-five ball play CTS today, who have the advantage of thorough training. who are handled with the greatest care, who take the best possible care of their own condi- ton, in general, are not able to keep going. While twenty years ago eleven diamond men with no spring training who took little or no care of them. selves off the f1eld-could jump in and fight through a season without ever knowing what hospital looked like. and two pitchers could work a schedule out then and keep in shape, while eight can't do 1t now without caving under all along the route, seems hard to understand"

If Heinie Zimmerman does not lead the national league in extra base drives this season 1t will not be his fault. The Bronx boy is simply murdering the ball. All of his drives are of the hardest and cleanest kind. All pitchers look alike to the batting sensation of the day.

R0CHESTER'S BRIGHT STAR
"cozy" DoIan, Former New York Highlander, Is Playing Clever
 Game for Manager Ganzel.

The real feature of the Rochester champions play recently has been the remarkable and timely hitting of that great third sacker, Albert J. (Cozy) Dolan. Cozy is fast climbing towards the top in batting and today his aver age is .333 in 45 games. The feature of his hitting is it's timeliness.
 On Sunday, June 30, at Jersey City Dolan hit one over the fence in the tenth inning and it won the game for his team. At Toronto July he hit another one over the fence in the eleventh inning and the Hustlers won. 1t Rochester in the morning game of July 4 with the score a tie when the Champs went to bat in the ninth in- ming and McMillan. who was first to bat, had been retired, Sir Cozy slam med the ball over the left field fence. Saturday, July 6. with the score tie in the tenth inning and McMillan on second base, along comes MT. Dolan and hits the ball in left field, thereby winning the game and fifty dollars for himself. Not content with all this glory, he put the finishing touch to the second game at Buffalo the other day by lifting one over the fence with one man on and it was enough to win again.
 Not only is Dolan to be praised for his batting, but he is fielding in grand style and one must look beyond the

 Professional baseball plays funny pranks with its devotees. Lefty" Krause came into the American league in 1909 with the usual biare of trumpets, and also the usual dope from the skeptics. Some predicted whirlwind success for him. 'Rube" Marquard's failure to produce was we'll engraved upon the public mind then and the question, "Is he another lemon?" held a prominent place among a large number of the fans.
 Krause was soon called the sensa- tion of the season. He silenced his detractors by winning eighteen and

 While with Terre Haute Carlo pitched but two games, winning the first from South Bend in handy fash ion. The second contest was lost to Springfield by the score of to 4 through an error of an outfielder, who dropped a fly. letting in two run in the ninth inning. It is expected that Manager Chance will give the boy a try-out next year.

was shipped to Toledo. Developing a sore arm after pitching and winning two games he consulted and was treated by Bonesetter Reese. Since then he has won seven consecutive games
 MitchelPs record has been some. what like that of Krause Willie shocked the baseball world by win. ming ten consecutive games in 1910 of twelve victories and eight defeats.
 It was too good to last. Willie's progress was seriously mutilated the next season. He won seven and lost fourteen.
 His ambition was almost annihifat- ed this season. Starting with mag nificent victory over Detroit in the opening game of the season, in which he held the Jungaleers to five hits and two runs while the Maps worked in the winning run of long contest in the eleventh, Mitchell gave promise of rivaling the star southpaws of the age.
 Then came the fall. His record to date is two victories and six defeats.
 The switch of Mitchell for Krause and the work of other members of the Cleveland team is sufficient grounds for the prediction that one or more of the other pitchers will soon follow.
