ROAR GOES UP At
EBBETS OVER DEAL
Brooklyn Fans and Other Major
League MagnateS Say That
0odger President is a flight
Wad."

NEW YORK. Dec. 30.-In major
league circles Tuesday Chas. II. Eb-
bets, president of the Brooklyn club,
is being blamed for the Federals'
coup in securing Joe Tinker, the crack
shortstop. The moguls declare that
if Ebbets had not been so niggardly
with his funds he would have met
Thinkers demands, and kept him in
organized baseball and thus kept from
the federals the biggest drawing card
they have, and one that Will add con-
siderable prestige to the Federal
league.
Tinker wanted a three year con-
tract from Ebbets at $500 a year in
addition to his $4,000 bonus. This
would have given him a total salary
Of $32, 0CO for three years. Ebbets, it
is said. offered him the $4,000 banus
and a $4,000 a year salary, a total Of
$4,000.
Ebbets knew, as did everybody else
that Tinker was not keen about play
ing in Brooklyn. He knew that Tink-
er wanted to play in Chicago. Also
he heard that the federals had Of
fered Tinker $4,000 to manage a
team in his home town. But Ebbets
believed that the federals did not
have the $4,000 and also they felt
, sure that Tinker would not hurdle the
fence in the general direction of the
federals' ball park.
But the magnate's denunciation OF
Ebbets is not a whisper to the an
tagonistic roar that has gone Up in
Brooklyn Figuring that Tinker s
presence on the Dodgers team was a
certainty. the fans began dreaming
pennant dreams. Now to wake up
and find that Tinker will not be in
their midst next year simply because
Of lnnCnn II q =
tent of an extra $3.50 a year for
three years has caused much unfa-
Vorable comment.
Tinker's presence as manager " the
Chicago Federal league team viii
prove a mighty boost for that organ
ization not merely in Chicago, where
Tinker is a great favorite, but also IN
all the other cities where Tinker Will
porve a big drawing card.

Outfelder Nixon. of the Erie club,
who was drafted by St. Louis. was in
the American league long enough last
season to bat once against Walter
Johnson. Nixon relates the eXper-
fence himself.
You remember the bush league
pitcher that made his debut in the
National league years ago who had
a little book that he carried with him
TO the mound, containing the weak
nesses of each batter? Pitching
against ittsburgh one day with three
men on the bases and none out. with
Hans Wagner up, he consulted his
book OF information and read: Hans

We'll, that bush league pitcher, if
he is still living. can sit back and en-

was at bat. I figured johnson would
throw the first one on the outside and
take a chance on my experience TO
have me strike at it. The bali cut the
plate for one strike. I glanced at the
runner and thought he was going TO
steal on the next one. which caused
me to make up my mind TO let the
next pitch go also. l also figured that
he would pitch a wide one to allow
the catcher to nab the runner. But
il was the second strike.
Il surely was in a hole, now. but
didn't lose confidence. l determined
to strike at the next one no matter
what il was. At the same moment
the runner flashed the hit and run

MICHIGAN TEAM
MUST BE REBUILT
YoSt Has Plenty of Work
Ahead Next Year if He Sue
CeedS in Filling Holes and
Downing Harvard Eleven.

Fielding II. Yosts ability as a foot
ball tutor will be put TO its greatest
test on Oct. 81, 1914 when his team
meets the best eleven developed in
the east in years.
For two years the Harvard team
has swept it's schedule with never q
defeat, and each season the men of
Harvard have won the gridiron
championship of the east. Next year
Harvard will have practically the
same team that Harvard had this
season, while Michigan may not have
a team that compares favorable with
the Yost eleven of 1913.
Had Michigan been able t. meet
Harvard this year or in 1915 her
chances against the great eleven at
Cam bridge would be at an even mark,
but next year
Yost must rebuild a scoring ma
chine at Ann Arbor. He loses the
pick of his 1913 line and the st IS
Of his backfield by graduation. lae
field from which he must choose his
new timber is questionable.
Paterson, Pontius, Musser. Allmen-
dinger. Lichtner, Scott and McHale
line. Among them are some of the
best linemen ever developed at Ann
ArbOr Jimmy Craig. all-American
and all-western halfback and the
greatest back developed in the west
in many years. has played his last
game under Yost. So have Torbet, a
dependable fullback, and Quinne, an
acceptable substitute for that posi-
ton.
To fill Paterson's Job at center is
Traphagen. aggressive and good
passer. He has the waterfall and
Yost rarely fails to bring IL out.
John Maultebetsch will be eligible
sensational back seen in college cir
cles in Michigan In many years. He
did wonderful work for the freshmen
eleven this year. He is a marvel at
bucking the line or carrying the ball
through broken field, but his value
has never been tested against big
league" opposition.
Splawn is another 81 back coming
from the freshmen next year. He
can outkick anybody on the 1913
varsity and is a wizard at heavins
the forward pass. He is weak on
defense and can do little in carrying
the ball, but YOst has not had him in
hand.
Those three - Traphagen. Splawn
and Maultbesch-loOk best at this
time.
Cochran will be back at guard
RayusTord returns to end. and so
does Lyons, who proved a brilliant
performer as a rule this year In
the backfeld Hughitt. quarter. and
Gait. halfbaCk. will be on hand. Both
are unusually good. They give NOst
two experienced men for his backfield
and three for the line.
Michigan needs a center, a guard
and two tackles, a halfhack and full
back As remarked above, there is a
good prospect for center in Trapha-
gen. two good haCkneld men in
Naultehetsch and Sulawn. and a 220-
poundge by the name or PeNOr
gives promise Of making a capable
tackle or guard.
