to see Telesco and I in the ring

show what he can do IN the pitchers
box for the Asbury Park Club, of the
Atlantic League. Wagner. who IL
living with his parents in Phiadel-
phia, came to Newark yesterday in
the hope of getting on with the
Bloomfield Club, which. by the way,
! as been shipped tn Asbury Park
with Andy Coakley as the manager.
Wagner was unable to locate C3ak-
ley yesterday, but he said he would
make another effort today.
@
Until few years ago, Young Wag-
ner made his home with his parents
in Newark. but his parents moved to
Philadelphia, and of course the boy
went with them. While here he was
a pitcher of note among the grammar
schoolboys and he managed the Eli
oft Street School team in 1909. He
also twirled for the oxford F. c. and
the Parker F. c. Owing to illness,
the boy was compelled to give up
ball playing in 1910, but the next
year he became a sensation among
the semi-pro teams Of Philadelphia
and was picked up by Frank Neal,
the scout for the Phillies. Manager
Doom kept the boy with the team
until a week ago, when he decided
that Wagner needed more schooling.
He arranged to have the boy join
the Syracuse club, but Wagner's par
ents wouldn't allow him to go so far
away from home. He then asked
Doom for his release and the man
ager, in view of the fact that he is
only eighteen years of age anda his
parents refused to allow him to go
with the Syracuse team to get more
baseball education, finally consented
to give him his unconditional release

Wagner has great confidence in his
ability to make good, but admits he ie
rather young and also very light for
a major league club. He is IS, but he
doesn't look it, yet he has everything
