O'Clock, after an illness of few weeks

''BRA|NY" PITCHER WILL
 BEAT HIS OLD TEAM
ChrIsty Mathewson Believes # Trade Is Made Good heaver Won't
 Become a Mark.

Its always an open question" says Christy Mathewson. whether pitcher who changes clubs will be successful against his former team or be a mark for their batsmcn. Eau players argue that question for hours. and nobody is ever convinced either way. Some of them maintain, with excellent grounds. that pitcher knows all the weaknesses of his former pals, and that he will know exactly what each man can or can not hit. Therefore. if you look at it from this point, of view. q pitcher who changes teams during season should have something on his old friends for. the balance of that cam paign, and. in fact. as long as their lineup may remain the same
 "On the other hand. it seems equal ly obvious that the batsmen must have learned the strong and weak points of a pitcher. They ought to know exactly what he has in his repertoire. They can judge whether he has good speed or only bluff at fast delivery; whether he can throw a spitball or only an excuse for one. This theory seems perfectly logical. and very hard to get around, doesn't it?
 Tt seems to me. after watching a lot of them come and go. that the success of pitcher against his former team is really l question of relative class, not of former aSso- citation only If the pitcher is gamer man, faster thinker, and craftier fellow than the batters he will have something on all of his former friends; if the batsmen are a set of nervy, steady cusses. who won't give hang for any pitcher, no mat ter who he may be, the pitcher will not baffle them.
 Tn the National league last sea. son six pitchers changed teams dur ing the campaign Humphries, F.. Steel Burns, Curtiss, Weaver and Griffin Of these, Curtis was quite successful against his old team. Burns just toerably so. Humphrie5 didn't get into enough games to prove anything either way. and the others had the misfortune to pe traded to feeble clubs, where thei- real ability didn't show
