EACH CLUB WELL REPRESENTED

That some time in his career spent in
successfully molding pennant-winners
in big minor company. is a valuable as
set TO a big league pilot striving to give
his followers a championship. is demon
strated in the case Of Chief George
Tecumseh StalIings, whose great work
with the Boston Braves has caused the
eyes of the entire baseball world to be
turned in his direction. lie has a de-
cided advantage over rivals by having
been able to get acquainted with the diff
ferent stars OF the big minor league
clubs, and to be able to land a majority
of them.
That is what the Big CHIEF of the
Boston Indians has done. Manager Stall
lings spent a number of years in the
old Eastern League, and the present In
ternational League, where he was af-
forded an opportunity to get acqainted
with the class of ballplayers. which Is
only little short Of being as good as
that under the big tent. Stallings won
two pennants for Buffalo. came near
getting a third. and spent a season with
Newark.
Manager StaIlings thought so much of
the International Leagul and the players
in IL, that as soon as he landed the
managerial job in Boston he started out
to book International lRsguers for his
Boston team. and he has kept IL up
with such success that OF his roster OF
twenty-five Braves, eleven of them are
players who earned their semi-mOnthly
stipend in the Barrow circuit.
At present every team in the IEterna-
tional League is represented on the BOs-
ton Nationals On the team are three
former Bisons and two players from the
Rochester club. while there is one each
from the remaining six clubs. of the
number three are pitchers, two catchers.
two infielders and four outfielders. Here
they are, Gowdy. Mann, and Mitchell
