'3Bushers May Have Some
Speed, But Not All There is

Jack Beckley was well along In
his thirties when Tommy Leach
broke into the big league. Diminu.
tive Tom came heralded as speed
marvel and all were anxious TO see
how feet he was on the bases.
His first time at bat Leach was
passed to first. where Beckley was
playing. Jake played quite a dis.
lance from the bag. but no one
could guess the reason until Leach
started to steal.
Then the players OF both teams
were amazed to see Beckley rush
ing for second. step ahead OF
Leach. Jake slid and reached the
bag first. He got up. busted his
knickerbcckers and proudly ex'
planned:
-Oh, don't know. These bush

STALLINGS' SYSTEM IS
MIDDLE GROUND SORT

The Giants represent one type Of
machine. The Athletics are the op-
posite type, and the Braves come hall
way between. McGraw directs his men
no closely that they even look to the
bench for signaled orders after the

Mack leaves things mostly to his
boys, who have always been noted for
individual intelligence. They may re

WILL INFIELDERS
Be SHIFTED, TOO2

The trick of substituting right-hand
batters for left-handers when hostile
southpaw holds the hill. nrst given .
thorough trial by Connie Mack, and
carried to the limit by Stallings, has
resulted In steady employment for
lots of outhelders who would other
wise have been relegated to the minor
leagues. In earlier days, before this
idea was thought of. clubs contented
themselves with four outfielders--
three regulars. who were always there.
and one utility gardener. The old be-
lief that an infield machine mustn't
be shifted still has control OF the man
ayers. II may be only o few years,
though, before they'll change infield-
ers, too. and every club will carry q
full double set Of players, shifting
every time the other fellowa shit
