VETERANS of the game are slowing

 Many fans wondered why the Cubs bought Bresnahan from the Cardinals. They didn't think he'd fit in as play CT after being manager. He looked way overweight, slow and scarcely full Of the ambition necessary.
 Today Bresnahan appears to be the keystone, as well as the manager, of the Cub machine. He has trained hard and faithfully. He has shown himself 9 leader,
 Yet he is no longer a spring chicken. Think of it--he was a pitcher with the old Washingtons of the National league in 1897. His bigA league career covers lseventeen years, and today he is catch 4ng inc ball. s-15resnahan Showed such promise as

 Joe made .one big mistake. He tried to fight in the lightweight class and take the title from Kid Lavigne
 When he trained down to 13s pounds he found himself so weak he could not make any kind of 8 showing against Lavigne. The two fought a fifteen round draw in 1885 and Lavigne won in twelve rounds in San Francisco 1n 1897.

A BOWLER of the name of Wondra
 out in St. Paul has achieved what is probably the freakiest score ever re- corded in tenpin annals.
 This bowler made ten strikes. and yet his total was only ,1es. When it is con sidered that twelve consecutive strikes yield a perfect score-soo-it is difn- cult to imagine how two strikes less should make difference of 1o2 pins
