horpe Confesses Having Played Professional Bal
AN AGE OF ALTITUDE,
THIS ON THE DIAMOND
Notably Large Number of Tall Men Are Engaged
Professional Baseball as Means of Making a
Lving-Eppa Rixey Among Talest

High attitudes exist to a conspicuous
extent in professional bias ,ball. This
doesn't refer to the Rocky Mountain
League either. 1t means that there is a
conspicuously large number OF tall
players in the game. In the TWO major
leagues alonc the mum her of players
who are over six feet i'm height is nota-
Bile. Whether or not the game is
gradually elongating the human frame,
there il to be found among the regulars
and recruits "A great abundance OF tail
sycamores. All of them haven't skill
commensurate with stature, but skill
and a pientitude of inches are by no
means incompatible.
Most of the lengthy chaps OF the ball
field are pitchers. but other positions
have "a share of them. Take some Of
the pitchers of the Giants. string the
tallets of them together. and their
combined height would fall only a
trifle short OF the Metropolitan Tower.
Tcsreau. Matty, Wiltso and Marquard
are all six feet or over: Shore he Elk
feet three, and the heights of Perry
man and Hanley are respectively
6.O41S and 602s. Nine of the players
purchased by the Giants last year are
over six feet and Merkle. Meyers and
Fletcher are all six footers.
Every big league team has its sky
scrapers. There are Eppa Rixey Of the
Phiilies with his six feet tour. ana TWO
recruits, Arthur Salada, who IS six
feet three and half. and w. II. Ritter.
who is six feet two. Six out of fourteen
are in the six-foot class. and other tail
mem bers of the Doom clan are Doolan,
Moore, Alexander and Chalmers.

Chances ability as builder was also
shown in other departments than In
the pitching department He made
"A crack pitcher of Jimmy Archer after
such shrewd judges of baseball talent
as Fred Clarke and Hughey Jennings
turned Archer back TO the minors,
labelled; Not big enough for fast
company"
In 1911 Chance fought his battle with
only one member of his old stonewall
infeld lcft-Joe Tinker. Evers played
in only d few games in that year, and
Chance gave up the playing end after
he got a rude jolt on his bean from
George Suggs. Chance made good
first baseman of Vic Safer, who was
considered a lemon when he first came
into the National League. He also
developed Heinie Zimmerman INTO a
star after the Bronx boy did duty on
the Cub bench for several years and
never looked as if he would be good
for anything except utility role
Another inheld star developed by
Chance was Jimmy Doyle, the unfor-
tunate youngster who died last winter
after playing a great game at third base
in 1911. Doyle was one of the finds of
the 1911 season, and also had been
passed up by famous manager, Clark
Griffith. who tried him out while man
aging the Reds, and turned him back
TO the bushes.
Chance never developed any out
felders because he never had occa-
sion to do so. After Jimmy Slagie
nassed out of the league Chance had
a good man to replace him in Artie
Holman, who in the early days of
Chances regime in Chicago was an
all-round utility man, and one OF the
best the game ever produced
Had Capable OutfieIders.
Until last season any manager would
have been arrested If he had thought
of trying to ind moro capable out
felders than Frank Schultz and Jimmy
Sheckard. However, last year Chance
took Ward Miller, another Cincinnati
cast-off, and Miller is now fine pros
pect.
1t will be seen, therefore, that when

circus ever showed, were some of the
numbers on the program witnessed
by many thousands from Washington
and contiguous states. Broncho

the steer" and dozens Of other events
in which cow-girls will participate also
were on the program. Cash prizes
and valuable trophies are offered in
every contest A notable feature Of
the celebration will be reproduction

Of DR.. Marcus Whitman, famous pio-
neer Congregational missionary, and
eleven of his followers. Three hun
dred full-blooded Nez Perce Indians
encamped on the grounds will "com-
NIT the 1913 massacre" Another
