New York, Aug. 21.-Ray Caldwell
has shown ingratitude to Frank
Chance IN jumping to the Feds. 1t
was the peerless leader who first dis
covered the world of undeveloped stuff
that Caldwell had and under Chances
careful tutelage Caldwell developed
rapidly into one Of the greatest pitch
ers in the game
That Caldwell has developed and in
a remarkable measure IS loudly af-
frmed by every player in the Ameri-
can league. Many of them declare
that he has more real stuff than Wal
ter Johnson. And he would need all
the stun they say he has to be able to
pitch the winning ball he has with
slow club. At the time of his leaving
the Yanks. Caldwell had an average of
.654. winning II games and losing nine.
It is pointed out that a pitcher with
an average Of more than 200 points
ahead OF the team he works with is
entitled TO unstinted applause. There
can be little doubt that Caldwell is
one OF the greatest twirlers the game
has had in years.
His Jump 20 the Feds is imputed to
Chances severity in handling his
players. Caldwell resented the man
ner in which the p. L. made him toe
the line, forgetting that to this alone
he should be thankful for his own
Chance, in keeping
strict eye on Caldwell's behavior, did
for him what no one else might have
done.
But "Slim" seemed to feel that
Chance went a little too far and he
was glad 20 jump TO less stringent sur
roundings. Fines amounting to 5000
did not please Caldwell a bit or make
him feel any more contented with his
Job with the Yanks. However, wheth-
er he realizes it or not, it was all for
his own good and with an easier man.
ager he would hardly have developed
as he did He really required the dis
cipline. And as long as his deport-
ment was temperate and prudent he
had no more earnest friend and COM
rade than Frank Chance
