He sat around on the New York
bench for a few days, and then the
season closed. so he returned to
his home in Missouri In the
spring of 1911 he reported 10 Nc

but that was about all only his
size secured him much attention

cruts were figured more promis

McGraw sized Tesreau mp at his
leisure. He worked him in exhibi-'
ton games as the Giants went
North in 1911 Jeff did fairly well.
but he had very little Of what the
players call stuff" He had pick
ed up the rudiments Of the spit bali,
somehow, and seemed TO make con
siderable progress with that de-
livery. McGraw is supposed to be
opposed to the splitter. as a gen
eral proposition. but strangely
enough he encouraged Tesread TO
keep at it, He probably figured he
needed something
When the Giants returned to New
York McGraw sent the big pitcher
over to Joe Kelley, at Toronto, for
development. and thereafter he
heard no more from him at least
not through Kelley. Meantime, Jeff
got away slowly, but as the season
progressed he grew better To-
ward the close he was pronounced
the best pitcher in the then East
ern league He was striking out
ten and fifteen men to a game
No hint Of this reached McGraw
from the Toronto management, but
the chief Of the Giants has a way
Of finding out fot himself His
friends told him Jeff was ready for
the big show. and Tesreau was or
dered to report at Marlin this
spring Whether the failure to give
McGraw a line on the man had
anything to do with il or not. II
is noticeable that Toronto is no
longer the favorte farm of the
Giants.

given new assistant, and his name
is Jack Curley.
Curley gained the appointment
direct from Mayor Taupert His
honor appreciates the fact that the
advance doings of the Flynn-John-

chief needs assistance. So on the
