FRANK CHANCE
PUT ONE OVER
Peerless Leader Still a Live
One and National League
Leaders Are Worried

The news that Frank Chance is go
ing to play first base for the New
Yorks this year is worrying Charles
Webb Murphy Of the Cubs and
August Hermann OF the Reds It is
said that whenever Murphy and Herr
mann read cable dispatches to the
effect that Chance is in splendid
physical trim and is in the game in
stead Of warming the bench they talk
to themselves. Chicago and Cincin-
natl fans are doing much too. for they
we're led to believe last Winter that
Chance, a physical wreck. never
could return TO the game in possess
sion Of his old quality as leader or
player. Murphy sold Chance to Herr
mann for 81 500 after all OF the other
National League clubs had waived
claim TO the Peerless Leader. Herr
mann in turn disposed OF Chance to
the New York for a similar amount.
being fully convinced that he was
driving shrewd bargain
If the Cubs. managed by Evers, and
the Reds. handled by Tinker. fail to
make good. while Chance demon
strates that he still can play and lead
with success. 4 is predicted that Muir
ply and Hermann will have 10 face
a storm of criticism. II is also de-
clared that other National League
owners. including W. H. Locke, OF
Philadelphia. are ready TO admit that
the release of Chance TO Ban John
sons circuit was a fatal mistake. In
I a Iao cd
growing that Johnson, Comiskey and
Farrell put one OVER on the Nation
al League and that Chance knew
what he was doing when he picked
the now famous quarrel with Murphy.
When Chance was signed by the
New Works the general belief in the
National League was that he would
never play again and as bench man.
ager he would not prove a bowling
success. Murphy spread the story
that Chance was a hopeless invalid
and that ne would prove a white
elephant I'm the American League. il
is now admitted that several Nation
al League club owners If they had
been conyersant with inside facts
would have declined 10 waive on
Chance rather than allow him to &C
over to the enemy. Murphy II Is
argued, can show that the retention
of Chance by the Cubs was out OF th'
question because of personal
anmosity, but in Herrmann's case
Is a matter Of record that the ownel
Of the Reds never seriously consider
ed Chance while negotiating for Tin
ker and did everything in his powe
to swing the deal for Farrell Fo
these reasons the achievements o
Chance, Tinker and Evers this yea
are awaited with unhagging interest
