BILL DONOVAN CHANGED HIS MIND
ABOUT YOUNG WALTER JOHNSON

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 3d.
Bill Donovan. in his day one Of the
rreatest pitchers, now a minor league
manager. having charge of the
Providence team, passed through the
city yesterday en- route to Durham,
n. c., where he hopes to make ar
rangcments for the training of his
team.
Donovan recalls the summer day in
1907 when he was here with the
Tigers and a tall, akward looking
youth wearing a Washington uniform
walked out on the mound. who's
that fellow" inquired Bill, from a
spectator. His name is Johnson"
was the reply. "They say he struck
uut Twenty-Five men in Idaho"
well, this isn't Idaho, and that
young fellow win find it out in a
very few minutes" put in Bill as he
sat down to watch the proceedings.
Three innings later Donovan went
back to the spectator who had given

him the information. How many
did you. say he struck out in Idaho
twenty-five? It's a wonder he didn't
strike out twenty-seven. That's the
greatest kid I have ever seen"
Donovan hasn't changed his opinion
on Walter Johnson since that time.
He still believes he is the greatest
pitcher. and he believes that he will
establish that fact from now on.
Last year" said Donovan. Wal
ter had his first chance to show his
true form because he had team be-
hind him. Vile is now matured and
I look for him to be remarkable
performer from this out. Walter is
now full grown, and has learned a
lot about pitching which allows him
to save his arm. and he will un-
doubtedly have the banner year OF
his career N the next campaign.
To me Walter is the ideal pitcher be-
cause he works so freely and there
is no apparent strain on his arm
when he pitches

ing, sparkling sensation of the Inter
hatlpnal League. Boston has Cady,
VINO was the real noise in the worlds
series. Nineteen twelve was his first
major league year. Boston also has
Thomas, who caught ten or twelve
games at the end of last season. and
Nunamaker, who was going finely
until an injury retarted him.
Comiskey won't miss Sullivan. The
old Roman has two able new men in
Ray Scnalk, whom he purchased
from Milwaukee for sum said to
be $4,000, and Red Kuhn, heralded
from coast to coast as a wonder
George Stovall will experiment with
mn untried catching staff, but it won't
be surprising if he develops a pair Of
receivers capable of going the gait in
regular style. They are Alexander
and Crossin.
New York landed a good bot in
Sterrett, Princeton college boy, if ex-
pert testimony counts for anything.
Sterrett caught some and played first
base for the Yanks, hitting .265 and
fielding grandly. Frank Chance will
use him exclusively behind the bat
this year
In Rondeau, young Frenchman
from Jersey City, Detroit apparently
secured a f1rst-class running mate for
Oscar Stanage. Rondeau has a bet
ter catching record than Schang, and
hit .31l.
Clark Griffith is probably better
fortified with youthful maskmen than
any manager. In Griff's team are
Henry and Ainsmith, regarded by
many as the best in the American
League. Henry has been in the league
two years and Aihsmith year and a
half. Griff also can bank on Will
Jams, whom Washington got from
Boston. williams is one-ycar man.
Cleveland has a likely catcher in
Stcvo O'Neil, who has had a years
experience in Johnson's organization.
Fred Carisch, though not a springer,
is newcomer in the American and

Parkway Night" in the Star head
pin tournament, with Dots Miller in
command, was one of the biggest
affairs in the history of the COM
petition. There were Seventy-five
bowlers out last night on the Iroquois
alleys, and the noisy rooters were
quite as numerous. Dots was tickled
to death when he turned in a count
of 101 and took one of the silver
watchfobs which the Star awards
to those who have scores between 100
and ITO. Sam Shuttleworth, who
rolled 102, and George b. Metcalf,
who had a mark of 100, were the
other fob-winners. MetcaIf turned
the trick in spite of the fact that he
had miss in the ninth frame. He
had 80 in the eleventh box, and
cleared the alleys with strike on his
last ball. Jules. who missed in the
fourth frame, rolled &c. He had four
strikes in a row, for a count of 81 in
the eleventh frame, but his last ball
only knocked down eight pins. Boyne
rolled the creditable score of 90 with
two misses. Dots had twelve good
hits in scoring 101. He had a score
of SO in the eleventh frame, and was
a decidedly relieved athlete when the
last ball knocked down eight pins.
He declared after his exhibition was
over that he would not take $50 for
his trophy. He also said that play
ing a game of baseball in the big
league had nothing on the trick of
hitting that old head pin twelve times
in a row. Shuttleworth rolled in the
same squad with Miller, aael also hit
the head pin twelve times straight,
getting a count of 102.

catcher, with the splendid average
Of 49,
AS a developer of pitchers. Robin
son was wonder when a younger
man than he is today, and he has
proved to Manager John McGraw Of
the Giants that he is still able to
bring out everything in a man, by
tanning Rube Marquard and making
jeff Tesreau worth while.
1t was Robinson who gave the late
John T. Brush some return for the
$1,000 he invested in Narquard.
McGraw knew it was in the Rube
and he told Robinson to locate It,,
which Wilbert did Some of that
cocky spirit now noticeable in Mar
guard may not be entirely due to an
enlarged head-it may be some of the
scrappy spirit Of the old Orioles, in
jected by Robinson.
In Baltimore Robinson took hold Of
Joe Corbett after Joe had drifted
from pillar TO post and made him
one Of the greatest pitchers in the
land. Corbett was wonder in his
day and he owed it to the big catcher.
In addition to Corbett there were
McMahon, Hawke, Esper, Hoffner,
Pond and Hemming tossing curves to
Robinson, and one and all felt more
secure with him back of the plate
taking their slants.
Robinson was born at Hudson,
Mass, June 2, 1859, and says that
from the time he was able to throw
ball he was in love with the game.
His first real engagement was in
1885 with the Haverhill team of the
Tim Murnane, alias the New Eng
land League. He played with the
Athletics in the American Associa-
ton from 1886 to 1890 and went to
Baltimore in 1891. where he remained
until 1904, save in 1900, when he was
with the st. Louis Nationals, catch
ing f1fty-four games.
Although not a heavy hitter, Rob.
iDson was a consistent batter and
broke up many games with his timely
hits. His best batting averages were
in 1893, 1894 and 1885,, when he hit 1888
| .34S and 1854, respectively.
For reasons of his own Robinson
refuses to name the games greatest
player or the greatest pitcher. He be.
lieves there are more good pitchers
now than when he was catching. hui
that the game is no faster.
Robinson has a job with the Giant.
as long as he is able to use a bis
glove, and he is without doubt tn,
most valuable lieutenant Manager
McGraw has on his pay roll.
