In the National and American
leagues are any number of players
who are classed as stars. Each has
his following which regards him as
the greatest ever" These stars play
various positions and have displayed
characteristics which have endeared
them to fandom.
There are a number of big league
players who lack style, yet they are
just as valuable as the players with
the fnesse. Seldom do such players
become big favorites, because they fail
to do things in a way that causes
comment.
We have often heard patrons of the
game say: "Well, Detroit is here to-
day, let us go out and see Cobb" or
THE Highlanders are here. let's see
Chase cut up" or '"The Pirates are
with us, let's see what Wagner does;'
or Cleveland plays today, I can't miss
Larry" or "Matty Is going to pitch, it
will be some game"
There are any number of others who
have their following. A few of the
most prominent have been enumerated
There is something about this quintet
that appeals to fandom, yet each Is
different from the others in style.
1t Is questionable If anyone ever
played with the ease Of Lajoie. He Is
the personifcation of grace. He makes
the hardest chance look ordinary. He
appears Indifferent, but is not. He
times every ball perfectly and never

LajOie NeUer HurrieS,
but Hans Wagner Does

dashes pell-mell after a hit, but rather
ambles to where he can handle the ball
with the least effort. Lajoie is the fin
ished artist. Critics say he has the
biggest following of any of the stars.
Wagner Is just the opposite. Grace
is not Wagner's strong point, yet the
results attained are zone the less sue
cessful. Laioie waltZes after a ball,
while Wagner gets it on the gallop.
Wagner is full of dash and energy, the
personification of power, skill and agil-
ity. No chance is too difficult, yet his
name makes easy chances seem
hard.
Chase is a composite of Larry and
Honus. He possesses the dash and
energy of Wagner and the grace and
ease of Lajoie. No player thinks faster
thai Chase; in fact, once in a while he
thinks too quickly for some of his
teammates and a brilliant play is
wasted.
Christy Methewson is the student.
He keeps something in reserve. He is
easy to hit when the bases are empty,
but an awful puzzle when a hit means
a run. He conserves his energy at all
times and is destined to pitch many
years as a result.
Ty Cobb combines some of the char
acteristics of all the stars. He has
dash galore, is as graceful as a gazelle,
has the speed of Chase and the brain
of Mathewson, the dash of Wagner and
the grace OF Lajoie.

From st. Louis today comes the
trip planned by the st. Leo champion
soccer team, through the East makes
it definite that a gam with the West
Hudsons will be played In Harrison,
Local soccer fans will be delighted at
the opportunity of seeing the st. Leos
in action with the West Hudsons on
the Harrison oval.
No definite date has been fixed, but
the game is assured. Other teams to
meet the invaders will be the Taconys,
of Philadelphia; the Brooklyn f. c.,
the Howard Bulloughs, Fall River Row
ers and some New York team. The st,
Leos will leave the Mound City about
March II.
Other towns which want games are
Buffalo. Toronto, Holyoke, Springfield
and Syracuse and several Indiana
teams.
The decision of the st. Leo team
West Hudsons were planning to meet
the st. Leos in st. Louis will fall
through. The Hudsons may make the
journey next year. Bill Abstein, the
former Jersey City first baseman, is
fullback on the st. Leos.
The st. Leos will have to become ac-
customed to two features of the East
ern style of play. The men will have
to wear clpated shoes of a different
sort than their own.

edison Club Night" in the STAR
headpin tournament was marked by
some clever bowling. Only n of the
performers on the %Iroquois alleys last
night, however, was able to win one of
the ~watchfobs offered by the STAR to
those who roll scores of 100 or better.
This was Frank C. Erwin, who, with
twelve pretty hits, winding up with a
strike, accounted for a tally of 103.

nected with the office of Thomas Edi-
son and Chick kidneys was in charge
of affairs. All hands had a fine time,
and the rooters did their best to cheer
the performers on to great things.
Green, in the very first squad, came
mighty close to being a fob-winner. He
rolled 81, a miss in the seventh frame
being decidedly costly. Courtney, who
had three misses, one coming in the
twelfth box, did well to tally SO. Ever
EFT, who, with three misses, scored "a,
was high in the second squad. Hesse
rolled a score of 8. He had misses in
every frame, except the eighth and the
fifth, nj he fouled in the latter box.
In the next squad M~acReynolds rolled
SO. He had ten hits in a row and
missed In the eleventh box. Grech hit
the headpin eleven times straight and
had but SO in that frame. Then he
missed in the twelfth. Erwin got his
tally of 103 with this squad.
Cook, in the next squad, missed in
the first frame. and then had five
strikes in a row. He ran his score up
to rs in the ninth, but missed in the
tenth, n two strikes for a windup
only gave him a score of SO. In the
last squad Wagner, with two misses,
was high, with 80.

Did YOU ever know that Joe Nc

pitcher whose portrait adorns the Hall

Well, Sir Joseph has that %extraordi-

hitherto been appraised of the fact.
Back in 1908, when Joe used to lead
the National League pitchers and was
regarded as the best twirler in the
country, the National League appro>
priated $1,000 to be devoted annually
to the purchase of life-size portraits of
the leagues best pitcher and the

Joe led the National League in 1905
as a pitcher, and his likeness was taken
and a life-size photograph reproduced.

Ty Cobb pays a high tribute TO
Buck O'Brlen, the Boston CLUBS
young pitcher.
u believe | have never in my lie
3 faced a pitcher who bothered me so
much as O'Brien.' said the Detroit
star. I'm making the statement l
have taken into consideration the
other great pitchers l have faced
Gregg, Walsh, Johnson, Ford and the
rest of them.
"O'Brien has everything. He also
has a splitter the like of which | have
never before seen. 1t breaks like a
shot. It's absolutely impossible to
gauge it with any degree of consis-
teney.''
Speaking of Cobb, he can hardly be
blamed for having turned scribe dur
ing a world series. 1t pays him. Dur
ing the 1911 series between the Ath-
letics and Giants Cobb wrote for a
Philadelphia paper. He a a guar
antee with a privilege of the gross
profits. Ty pulled down 1876 in addl-
ton to his expenses. The Philadelphia
paper sold 315, 600 words of Cobb's dope.
Ty received his final check, calling for

Barney D~reyfuss, owner of the
Pirates, does not want to make himself

culated recently that he was TO buy
the Wheeling club he said that he
added he would not take the club, even
il he was offered a bonus of $4,000 to
do SO.
Fielder Jones, new head of the
Northwestern League, has signed Ausie
Moran, former National League UNI
pire, to work for him.

out how the story leaked out. See how
close we come to hitting the nail CT the

Some baseball magnates never ac-

gives it out, or there may be some other
sort of a leak, and the manager and

Enough has leaked out concerning
the major league schedule to announce
that the season will begin on April

of Sunday ball in Cleveland. Other
wise, it is understood, the schedule
will differ but little from hat of other
seasons. The big leagues follow a sys-
