JENNINGS IS GENEROUS
Allows Many Baseball Stars to
 Slip From His Grasp
Santa Claus of American League Gave Ira Thomas to Connie Mack and Jimmy Archer to Chicago
 Many Others Got Away.

The management of the Cincinnati baseball team has always been noted for allowing star players to get away and become most valuable members of other teams in the same circuit. In fact, it used to be saying in the National league that player never had the o. K. stamp affixed until he had been released by Cincinnati.
 Now it looks as if Hughey Jennings was the Santa Claus of the American league. Certainly Hughey has turned loose more good men than any of his gave Ira Thomas to Connie Mack and big Ira has been the mainstay of the Athletics behind the bat ever since helping to cut two post-season melons Later on Hughey decided he did not like Jimmy Archer's style behind the bat. He released Jimmy to Buffalo and Frank Chance grabbed him. He has been the one bet as backstop in the National league since that time.
 Along about that time Jennings had on his list of recruits Tri-State league outfielder and a Wisconsin pitcher. The New York Yankees were hard up for players and Jennings kindly consented to let Farreps club have both men, as he could not figure how either man could strengthen his pennant winning aggregation. These two recruits were Pitcher Jack War hop and Outfielder Birdie Cree, each of whom has been responsible fol many defeat sustained by Detroit
 A year ago last spring, when the Tigers trained at San Antonio, two of the Detroit recruits were Simmons

and Kirlle. The latter was said to be too much impressed with the import. ance of MT. Kirke, and had a bad habit of trying to knock the gloye#off First Baseman Ton Jones even though the latter was standing but a few feet away when Kirke happened to be fielding the ball. He was farmed out to the Tri,State league and recall ed toward the end of the 1910 season. He was also carried down south again last spring and then turned over to New Orleans. He hit the ball hard for the Pelicans and helped New Or leans win the pennant. But when it came time to exercise the right to re. call MT. Kirke, Jennings passed him tip.
