JOE M'G|NN|TY WAS
GREATEST IRON NAN
SINCE RADBOURN[
Finished TwirIer of'the McGraw
School, He Established
Wonderful Reputation.
BY Goldberg

Iron men may come and iron men
may go, but the only real. genuine,
sure enough iron man worthy the name
since the day of "Old Hoss'' Radbourne.
of Providence, was Joseph j. McGin-
nifty.
McGinnity is best remembered by his
string Of victories. his ability TO pitch
winning doubleheaders, and the fact
that he pitched for three major league
New York.
A product of that old master, Ned
Hanlon, McGinnity was. the finished
pitcher of the McGraw school-which is
that of Hanlon. with later day trim
mings la Muggsy.
McGinnity was In the iimelight last
fall when Hugh Jennings tried to sign
him as relief pitcher. This was after
McGinnity had severed connection with
Newark. n. j., and was looking for a
chance to invest his money. He Is sup
posed to have invested 1t now In the
Northwestern League.
The Iron Mans record Is brilliant In
1900 he led all the National League
pitchers He pitched forty-one games
for Brooklyn and finished with 1853
average In 1904 he repeated, leading
even Mathewson, his teammate. his
percentage being .S14.
A rise ball, delivered underhand.
which he affectionately called "Old
SAL" wonderful knowledge OF batters
weaknesses, a head full Of baseball
lore, and so cool that thin-blooded peo-
pie wore o@ercoats on hot days when
he was near, made Joe McGinnity a
nightmare for batters..
McGinnity halls from the coal mining
district of Illinois, and was born March
10, 1873 He was a miner before he be-
gan playing ball. As he has been out
Of the major league for only four years
and playing in a fast minor league. Nc
Ginnity has had exceptional opportuni-
ty to judge conditions and to say
whether the game is faster now than
when he was with Baltimore. but he
refuses to do so.
Willie Keeler. says McGinnity. was
the greatest of all ball players. and
Mathewson. to his notion, the mightiest
of all pitchers.

A. This mark Is g pins better than
the record held by Columbia Nc
change occurred last night in either
Class B or five-man teams.
Donohue and Milovich, rolling in the
doubles, overcame the work of Weldon
and Binley. An advantage of seven
pins was registered by the first named
duo, their total being 991 pins.
In the Class c doubles, Lesh and Nc
Kay, until last night leaders in that
class, were displaced by Bauman and
Seaton, for first place. Whitaker and
Wilson walked into the shoes OF Al

Williamson, in Class singles, killed
the most pins that have been knocked
down by any bowler in any of the three
classes of the singles. He raised Nc
Intyre's mark of 572 by nine pins. He
also rolled the exceptional average OF

C" AGGREGATION IS
STRONGEST OF ALL
Has Some Great Players in Its
Lineup, But Others Look
Pretty Fast on Paper.

The members OF the winter league
have made one last and astonishing
effort to open a debate before the sea
son really commences and all dope
dreams are relegated to the past. One
of the prominent supporters Of the
league, by reason Of a guilty conscience
or too much Welsh rarebit. was unable
TO fall asleep in his usual prompt man.
ner the other night, and his thoughts
reverting to his favorite topic, some
thing impelled him to try to pick out a
team made up Of players whose names
all began with the same letter. He was
successful, and the next time he met
the other rabid rooters at the usual
place he told them what he had DONE
Then. proving that two heads are bet
ter than one, a second brain conceived
the brilliant idea of forming an epght-
club league from the alphabet. After
books it was decided by the majority
that the eight strongest baseball letters
in the alphabet were b, c, ID, II, L, NJ,
and W. For instance, the B team
selected Bradley, first; Bush, second; ;
Barry. short; Baker, third; Bescher.
left; Bates. center; Birmingham, right;
Bresnahan, catcher, and Benton, Ben
der, Bedient. and Baumgarten, pitch
ers Byrpe and Burns were selected as
substitutes for this team.
Taking positions in the same order,
the other teams were as follows:
The Cs-Chase. Collins, Cutshaw, Cree.
Clarke, Cobb, Crawford, Cady. Coombs,
Cheney, Crandall and Caldwell.
The Hs-Hoblitzell. Huggins, Hauser.
