SPORTING NOTES

There is no player in the big leagues
whose career has been as meteoric OF
whose career is as promising as that OF
little Fritz Maisel, the new third base
man of the Highlanders. But three
wears ago he was found ON the land
lots of Baltimore and to-day stands as
one of the great opponents OF the ma
tional game. In 1910 he was little
too green for fast company so was
turned out to Elgin, Ill. Tho next sea-
son he was back with the Orioles and
since developed into one OF the best in
feeders ever turned out of the Interna-
tional circuit. He is a timely hitter
and fast as lightning on the bases.
Maisel is a right hand batter. He stands
I'D to the plate and swings free handed.
He is a wonderful thrower and fearless
fielder of ground balls. A man with
all these characteristics is bound to
make good.
Bob Smith continues to show his cali
bre in the Twin State league. He pitched
Tuesday and won. He came back on
Wednesday and added more laurels to
his credit.
The Boston Red Sox were defeated at
Syracuse Wednesday by the Syracuse
New York state leaguers by the over
whelming score of to /.
In Detroit the other day, Veaeh stood
at home plate and threw the ball over
center field fence. Duffy Lewis of the
Boston team did it twice, but Speaker,
Hooper and Crawford could not do it.
McGreevy of the American league
staff is said to be the poorest umpire
of the season. He is a newcomer and
looks doomed for the bushes.

aged 10 years, employed for year past

Economy

Buick Economy is the result of per-
fected cars that have no weak features.
The cars are light on tires. They run
600 or 100000 miles over hills or any
roads with more certainty and on less
fuel than any other motor cars that
receive the same care. They last for
years, and have as much power after
two or three years as other moderate
price cars have when new.
