~HICAGO, ILL, Oct. 24.-Many of
the baseball critics throughout
the country are predicting that
John J. McGraw's New York Giants
won't be there with the National
League punch next season. But John
McGraw doesn't agree with the wise
critics
The fact that the Giants were so
severely walloped by the Philadelphia
Athletics was, of course, the direct
cause for so much unfavorable chac-
ter concerning the Giants of 1914.
Then, right on top Of the defeat by
the American League champions,
comes along John j. McGraw and
takes several of his star athletes on a
world tour, a tour on which baseball
will be the chief pastime. Many crit
les are predicting that when the
Giants pass into New York harbor
next March, at the conclusion of their
tour of the world, they will be "all
in as far as their baseball ability is
concerned.
But you can't make baseball's little
-McGraw-believe any such
stuff. It's all nonsense, according to
the wise and crafty baseball man.
McGraw was with his globe tour
ing array Of splendid baseball talert.
We had quite a chat with him before
the Giant White Sox special pulled
away Monday for Springfield. H.,
where the teams played several
games. We did not fail to ask him
the direct question of what he
thought his chances would be for the
flag in the National League next sea-
son. His answer was a short one. Il
think I'll win next summer. just as
easily as l did during the past sum
mer." That, in itself, is sufficient
proof that McGraw does not believe
his team is slipping or that the

Tour Won't HurtMen'- -McGraw
i.A
Expects to Cop Pennant in 1914

globe trotting tour will have any i'll
effects upon his athletes.
Expects Much of New Pitchers.
McGraw is more enthusiastic over
the 1914 Giants. He declares that
his young pitchers look awfully good
to him, especially RUDE Schauer and
Ford Schaupp. McGraw says both
of the above twirlers should
make a lot of noise in the National
League next summer. However, the
Giant manager does admit that he
will have to make a change or two IN
the Giant lineup next spring. Just
what the changes will be he would not
admit. McGraw is too smart a base
ball man to do preliminary talking of
that nature.
The little leader also gave us to I'M
derstand that he was open to trade
propositions, but again did he dodge
the issue when asked the direct queS-
ton of whom he would prefer to
trade. However those who have
closely followed the National League
champions through the past season
are outspoken in predicting that Fred
Merkle will more than likely be per-
forming with some other National
League club when the get-ready gong
for the 1914 season is sounded. 1t has
been rumored for some time around
New York that Merkle was due tick
ct elsewhere, but when McGraw got
together his globe trotting party Mer-
kle was one of the first he signed.
So. from one angle, 1t looks as though
big Fred, whose bone headed stunts
have given him such great publicity,
will be elsewhere next season; then,
from the other angle, it appears that
McGraw will use him again.
Tour Not to Hurt Players.
AS to the world tour hurting his
men, McGraw says he puts no faith IN
such predictions. The greater part OF
the baseball of the entire trip will be
en- route to the West Coast, and as

The Word Cocoanut.

II really should be "coco-nut," but

superfluous "a" The term coco or CO.

Portuguese origin. and the derivation
is quite out Of the ordinary. Accord.

haps the best explanation offered is
that COCO" means grin or grimace,
for the three eyes Of the nut certainly
convey the impression Of hideous
laugh. For the unnecessary "a" the
blame has been laid on the head Of
