Ball players have pulled many stunt

just breaking into the National League
to slip over an entirely new one. The
youngster had been on the coaching lines
several times when / happened to be

to him. He didn't get chance to break
into the game until some time in May OF
last year, when he was sent in to bat
for the pitcher in a game that was hope

nERTINENI @M1ENT
n Happenings

way of salaries are curbed it would only
be a question of time when the salaries
would be so high that unless CLUB won
the pennant it would not make both enos
meet. The average ball player has an
exaggerated opinion of the amount OF
money a club makes. Here in Washing
ton, for instance, the club has had put
one profitable year, the last. Up TO that
to make both ends meet and the stock
holders got little or no returns Tor the
investment, yet the players were pald
salaries in keeping with those OF sue
cessful teams. Losing ball teams olten
have bigger salary lists than winning
ones. This because they are trying out a
lot of players and paying high salaries
to players who are really worthless.
1t is a safe prediction that the salary
list of the Nationals last year was not as
high as it has been on previous years
when the team finished last. In those
days the club took high-salaried players
who had seen their best days, out were
paid the same salaries they received when
in their prime because it was not con-
sidered good policy to cut them and eH-
pect their best efforts.
Hughey Jennings says there is great
likelihood that the fans IN New York
will expect too much of Chance during the
first year.
THAT is where they will make a great
mistake" continues Jennings.
.Of course. in New York they want
everything of champion caliber. They
brag about their 'tallest buildings in the
world In fact, biggest in the world
are the four, most abused words in the
voca bulary of a New Yorker.
Naturally, with this idea in theil
minds, they will think that Franz

STRENGTH IN
MACK'S ATHLETICS
Conservative Connie Thinks
1913 String the Strongest
He Has Ever B0sSed.

PHILADELPHIA. January 21.-connie
Mack the sage of Lehish avenue. who
seldom talks for publication in the loaf
months, comes right out boldly and says
that the Athletics have the team this
year out of which muslin winners are
fashioned
Il am going to make a strong fight for
the pennant this season. and believe that
L have the string to bring one here. l
think that the 1913 Athletics are stronger
than the team which won the world
championships in 1910 and 1911.
''Of course, / am not saying We are
certain winners. for there are too many
things to upset predictions. Accidents.
trades. the discovery of new phenome-
mons and the going back OF stars all al
feet championship brush.
Didn't Make Good.
For instance, i'm 1912 the pennant was
conceded to us by every manager i'm the
league, and the last day of the race found
US i'm third place.
I'VE lost last year because of the acct
dents to Danny Murphy and Barry, the
slump i'm our outfield and the detection OF
two pitchers. We can't guard against
accidents i'm the future. but L have mend
cd Doln our plIcnlnS Sldil anu outHeiu
Mack gives the first official indication
of how he is going to dress his garden
of 1913
For the first time in many years" he
said. Il have an outfield in which l can
place confidence. j have good material
and plenty of material.
II will start the season with Oidring
Strunk and Eddie Murphy filling the
three posts. This gives me Dan Murphy.
Walsh and Daley in reserve Strunk went
so last that ha he dis
placed, and yet Oldring is such COM
petent man that / can't keep him on the
bench. Oldring has been taking good
of himself and will play swift ball
this year. Eddie Murphy is first choice
for right field. because he is going to top
my batting order, and room must be
made for him.
This gives me the elder Murphy, Walsh
that 1 will keep all six outfielders. While
/ don't expect to use Dan Murphy in the
field. L am going to keep him as pinch
hitter. Dan can still hit. even II his knee
is weak. Walsh and Daley Will then be
available for reserve duty.
Always Liked Daley.
II like Daley j first saw him play
four years ago when I was out on the
coast. 1 liked his actions, but he was TOO
immature then for a trial in the fast
set"
The tall tutor says his pitchers will
come back, and that Bender, Coombs and
Plank will be three great winners again,
with Brown, Houck and Pennock to help
the big three out.
1t is significant that in the face of their
defeat last season nearly every American
League directing boss issues the warning
Look out for the Mackmen!" They know
that the team did not play up to form
last year.
The players were also overconhdent.
They took things too easy in the early
stretch of the campaign, and couldn
close the gap later. The Mackmen miss
ed the rich worlds series fall of gold I'm
October, and they want to be eligible Tor
the big checks again. Therefore they can
be expected to play savagely from the
start of the next brush.
