Plenty of Material.

So this in measure, accounts for
the many. many shifts of pitchers that
Mack made in the early part Of the sea
son lie realized that he had a wealth
OF material at hand, from the splendid
showing OF three or four Of his young
pitchers in the spring series with the
Phillies. and he decided upon a slow but
sure process of ripening these promising
young slabmen for future delivery. He
argued thus: An untried pitcher will
learn more, and gain more confidence,
by being in one inning nine separate
games. where the situation is apt to be
different on each occasion. than he will
II he were to pitch nine consecutive in
nings and maybe get a good beating be-

Connie do you ever think you will
have a man go the full nine innings?
anxiously asked John Shibe, the secre-
tary of our club one day about the first
of MAY. UP to which time We had not
had a pitcher go the full distance and
win.
Connie only smiled. He was not wor-
rying as We were in first place. and
going smoothly.
We'll. I'll give suit OF clothes tO the
first fellow you put in who can pitch a

iIouck Goes In.

hOuck sOcN
As il happened. that very day ioucS
went in and pitched a remarkable game
against New Iork-in fact. he held them
to four scattered hits and no runs up 10
the ninth. and two men had been re-
tired, when Daniels. Wolters, and Chase
singled in quick succession, whereupon
Connie deemed il wise to derrick Hourk
and substitute Bender. Chief struck
out Cree. and the game was over. Houck
was disappointed not to have been able
TO finish. but as long as We had won
he wasn't Il bit dismayed.
John" said he to Shibe that night,
II think I ought to get coat and Il
pair of trousers for that game. I'll ad-
nit ] don't deserve the vest" But still
our secretary was not satisfied.
Naturally. the question arises: What Is
the occasion for so many changes Of
pitchers? 1t often happens in close
game when a pitcher begins to show
signs OF weakening and the whole team
| is more or less shaky, too. and confidence
! is ebbing fast, that the substitution OF a
new pitcher. and the time consumed IN
making the switch, will do much to turn
the tide and put the team on its feet
again and check the run making Of its
opponents.
Pennock Comes Through.
! i recall a very vivid illustration of this
sort of jockeying which Connie Mack
pulled against Cleveland ore day last
year at Shibe Park. HoucE had started
a game, and. given n commanding icah'
was going nicely until about the seventh.
when base on balls, followed by mis-
cue afield. and three hits in rapid Sue

/ all he knew that Houck was done. and
! that he must make a change Immediate

| best rescue man. but the latter needed
/ plenty of time to warm UP and was not
steady, so quickly had our teams de-
cided advantage slumped t. nothing. WhU

Connie Calls Meeting.

The. first inkling of the policy he had
upon TO pursue with his pitchers
We learned on the morning of our open
ing game at home. Said Connie" to the
ritchers In our meeting:
Now, / don't want any of you to feel
bad, or to think i am not satisfied with
your work in the box. if suddenly take
you out and put in another man. But
what ! want you all to bear in mind
Is that We have a lot of capable pitchers
right here"-and he allowed his gaze
10 wander to Bender, Plank, Brown,
Houck. Bush, Pennock, Wyckoff. and
some others seated in the room-"and
want each one of you to go at top
speed and give US all you've got when
YOU are i'm the box. II IL is only for three
innings. or only one, or even to one man,
pitch your hardest. When you feel your
self slipping, remember that we've got
some one else just as good who can take
your place"
In other words. Connie realized the
important part that his young and un-
tried pitchers must play. with a vetera n
lost temporarily. and in order not TO
break their confidence in themselves he
decided to divide up the work rather to
go right through with one of them and
take a chance that some club would give
the youngster a severe drubbing. from
which it would take him a long time 10
recover.

Connie Mack a Wonder

Eddie Collins Says Athletics
Chieftain Is Never at a Loss
for a Relief Twirler.
PLENTY OF YOUNGSTERS
ny EDDIE COLLINS,
OF the Afhlefics-

Last year, before the ball season
had been under way a week, John
Coombs, the iron man. of our
pitching department, developed ty-
phoid fever, and his services were
lost to us for the rest of the cam
paign. Immediately the serious
nature of his illness became known,
fandom seemed to say, What will
the Athletics do without him :"
Critics ventured to predict, Ben
der and Plank can never win a
pennant alone, and Mack has no
one else"
1t is unnecessary to say, perhaps,
that even we Athletics were a bit
skeptical of the future. Connie
Mack alone seemed unperturbed,
and although naturally he ex-
pressed sincere sympathy for
Coombs, concerning his clubs fu-
ture, he simply smiled and gave
this vague reply to the anxious
queries that were fired at him by
players and others: "Oh, we've
got pitchers enough. Well be all

DON'T TAX THE RED LIGHT.
Contributed

I understand that the town council has passed an ordinan ce putting a tax of five dollars per month on each girl of the redlight district. lTo do so is not be in accord with the spirit of Sec. 245 penal code of Arizona which provides that, "Any person or persons who knowingly recieves any money or valuable thing, from the earnings of any woman or girl engaged in prostitution shall be guilty of felony and on conviction shall be imprisoned for term not exceeding ten years and fined not less than five murdered dollars" Why should town attempt to do that which it's citizens cannot lawfully do? But you tell me that the redlight woman IS an expense to the city. Undoubtedly, but let him who claims that she is a necessary evil or public necessity for the health of his boys and protection of his girls pay the expense. If he sincerely believes this he should gladly pay the expense. am willing to pay my share of the expense yet I am ashamed of the traffic, and of that father who sanctions it for the health of his boys and the protection of his girls. Let us foot the bills who own the property in the tow n and don't for one minute concider receiving any money as taxes or i fines, or in any other way, from the red light women. Don't allow one dollar of the prostitutes money to go into our town treasury. We should not allow vice and shame to pay taxes. Such would recognize it and put it on the same footing as the, store and other places oi business. It would lead to the grocest injustices and graft. It would stir us up who seriously ob- Iject to the existence of the traffic and cause more publicity than would be relished by those who fight for the traffic. .T | Did the town council consider carefully before they pass an or dinance taxing shame, for out oi such an ordinance will develope lgreat complications and disorder. The Council should reconsider Their action.
 Yours Truly.
