Rube Marquard VIII Clean Up
$4,000 If Giants Cop Pennant
By Tad

On the best of authority It Is
learned that one of the vaudeville
syndicates has offered Marouard
p weeks engagement at a weekly
salary of $1,000. This offer holds
good only if New York wins the
pennant so you may rest assured
that at least one member Of the
Giant pitching STAFF is pulling
against the Cubs.
If the Giants hold their lead to
the end, Marquard's earnings for
one year will easily reach SS5,
If they win the big title, he will
make more than that. Further
more, he will be in q position next
spring practically to name his own
terms. Let Rube's luck, or part Of
1t, hold out for another season or
two and 1t is safe to say that his
baseball career will mean at least
100000 to him. Marquard is still
young man, and If he takes care
of himself there is no reason whv
he should not last seven or eight
years more. He can not hope to 20
on as long as Mathewson has, for
he hasn't the ability to conserve his
strength when 1t is not needed.
This is undoubtedly Rube's best
year, and 1t Is up to him to make
the most of it.
In Minors Six Years Ago.
Six years ago Marquard was
pitching for the Canton club in ths
Central league at the princefy SAL
airy of 1925 per month. Every
batter in that circuit had a whole
some respect for him, but the all
most unanimous verdict was that
he would never stay up" In the
big show because of his awkward
ness and his weakness in fielding.
In those days RUDE never dreamed
Of the good fortune awaiting him.
He was content to go along win
ming a big majority of his games
and taking his frequent Seedlings
- DNAi iiitbLVo anu IudIldkST. Yea
RUDE was ''bawled out" Just as oft
en- in the bushes as he has been
since McGraw took hold OF him.
and 1t was undoubtedly his early
teaching that made him take Nc
Graw's abuse so calmly.
Well, as every one knows, ha
came up, was sent back and came
up again. He isn't graceful nor a
good fielder today, and there are
those who say he would be out
blowing but for his luck, but he fe
getting more money than an over
whelming majority of us and he
has taken enough verbal punish
ment to deserve It.

cation are requisites when It comes

and luck-is the happiest.

public overlooks the fact that sew
eral of Marquard's triumphs were
f1ukey, that he has been hit hard
and that his shut out victories have
been scarce. And the general pub
lie is what counts in a money
sense.
Lucky To Be With Giants.
RUDE is lucky in that he Is pitch
ing for New York instead Of Ros-
ton. St Louis or Brooklyn. He is
lucky to be with a winner with a
team of heavy hitters. which makes
victories easy for him Nothing but
the Giants downfall in the race for
the pennant can prevent Mar

In the first place, there is his
salary. Because of the fact that
he was of very little use to the
Giants for three years. the chances
are that his annual stipend is not
more than $4,000, if it is that much.
But there will be a bonus this wear
for him amounting to at least
$1,000. Then, New York sporting
men have promised to reward him
for his great work. and it is safe
to say he will be presented with at
least another $4,000 by them In
addition. he will be given an au-
tomobile, whether he is chosen as
the Nationals most valuable man
or not. If the sporting writer's do

There are always plenty of can
didates. Probably one out of every
hundred candidates would make a
passably good manager. Probably
one out of every ten thousand is a
real manager"
THE trouble about this manager
business is that it takes two
or three years for man to be-
come a manager, no matter what
his natural ability is. That rather
adds to the complications as may
be observed
T may be said in conclusion that
the Crackers got away with a
game yesterday-and they did it
with no less a pitching authority
in the box than AL Demaree. Giant
to-be and the highest priced man
ever sold by a Southern league
team. More than that, they did it.
despite the fact that Al allowed
only two hits. A little wildness by
the Gull in the first inning, a lucky
hit, flicker in the infield and
steal of the platter by Bailey, gave
the Crackers three runs and thew
needed no more. Brady pitched
excellent ball and deserved what
he got. He allowed hits, all right:
but when times got troublesome he
steadied down neatly.
