Grinneu, Nov 5.-Rev. G. P. Mitchell!

inquiries as to sentiment regarding
some sort of project for having Iowa

that out in the state and especially IN
the manufacturing and industrial CEN
ters, there Is much real sentiment in
favor OF having a voluntary organiza-
ton effected that will provide an Iowa
exhibit at the exposition. If anything
is done 1t must because of the &C.

BY J. ED GRILLo.

Matters are SO shaping themselves that
1t will be question of only few days
when the sale Of Joe Tinker to the Brook
lyn club will be contaminated. There
has been a sudden change in the situa-
ton in Cincinnati, where Hermann is
receiving the support Of a majority Of
the club directors. who a few days ago
were reported to be up in arms against
him because of the Tinker deal.
Tinker, 1t is understood, is on his way
to Brooklyn to talk matters over with
Ebbets, and tbs not unlikely that ne
will sign his contract before he returns
to his home In Chicago. Hermann Is
on record as saying that the deal will
stand if Tinker can come to terms with
Ebbets and there is every reason for
believing that he will not have any trou-
BILE doing that, for Ebbets is naturally
anxious to get Tinker into the fold, even
though lie has to pay him a big salary.
Moral support given Hermann by base
ball men in interviews seems to have
brought the board OF directors of the
Cincinnati club to understand that the
club would be the laughing stock of
base ball If it attempted to repudiate the
deal Hermann made There is no doubt
that an expression to this effect from
Ban Johnson had its influence.
Under the management of Bill CARR
gan the Red Sox may regain their form
Of two years ago and again be contend
ers in the race. After Carrfgan took
charge Of the team late last summer
there was marked Improvement in its
playing, though, of course. the poor
start the team got. together with the in
ability of Joe Wood to pitch, was too
much Of a handicap to put the former
champions in the running But CarriSan
gave evidence of having managerial abil-
ity even during his short regime last sea-
son, and his prospects the coming season
are even brighter.
The first action of President Lannin.
the new owner of the Red Sox, was to
inform Carrigan that he was in absolute
charge Of the team on and off the field
that he was at liberty to make such
changes as he saw fit in an effort to make
the team a winner, and that there would
be no interference with him in any man
ner or form.
For a newcomer into base ball Lannn
seems to have the right idea. For man
ager to succeed he should have full aa-
thority over his players.
McGraw is having his annual scare.
namely, that Arthur Shafer viii not re-
port The Californian has once more an
nounced that he is. through with base ball
and McGraW, of course, is worrying over
how he is going TO fill his place. Fortu-
nately. however. this is not the first time
that Shafer has quit the game in the
winter and reported in the spring. But
there is no doubt that he is In position
where he does not have to MAY base
ball for living, and he does like to run
his automobile over California roads.

lean League is going to stay superior 10
the National for a long time That rea-
son Is found i'm the remarkable CAMPER
of the young and sensational players
who made good the past year in their
first season as American Leaguers.
Never i'll the history of either big
leagues has such a remarkable buncn
of youngsters made good. A good team,
one which would have a chance to finish
, first, could be picked from these recruits.
In catchers the young league is par
ticularly strong. There is absolutely no
comparison in the backstops OF the two
leagues. The stars of the American back
stops are young men, most of whom are
seeing their second and third year In 1aSt
company. Schalk and Schang both OF
whom virtually broke into the league last
spring, made good with a vengeance, and
nearly every club in the circuit can boast
of star or two. Washington has Henry
and Ainsmith, who have few superiors,
while st. Louis has Agnew. and Cleve-
land, O'Neil, both of whom are among
the best III the country
What is true of the catchers also goes
for the young pitchers in the American
League. Nearly every one of the cluos
has a young twirler, or two. who stars.
This combination is sure to keep the Ban
Johnson league far ahead Of the Ma
tional for several years to come.
The National League has not been near
as alert on the question of developing
young players as has the American
League. During the past few years or SO
remarkable strides have been made by
the Johnsonian circuit in the matter OF de-
veloping young players. Every team can
point to four or five players whom 1t has
developed while there has been tend
ency to hold the old material by the
National League. The advantage OF hav-
ing a young. team lies in the fact that 1t
lasts for many years. Connie Mack, for
! instance, will have a high-class ball team
for eight or ten years yet. All that he re-
ouires is a new pitching staff, which can
be built up from time to time.
The first official move made b. Presi-
dent Lannin and Manager Carrgan OF
the Red Sox was to release Joe Quirk, the
trainer who went from here to Boston
with McAleer. His successor has not
been named.
