and he has consistently kept out of
the spotlight. despite a certain por-
ton OF credit unanimously extended
to him for some very apparent I'M
provement in the Cleveland club.
But this Foil person has some very
positive and brand new ideas that
are worthy OF consideration.
Foil believes in permitting his
veterans to do a lot OF the manag-
ing, and frequently he asks one Of
them 10 instruct a youngster regard
ing some misplay. when he might
as well do IL himself He does not
believe in batting practice before
games, club conferences on the
field. and two sessions OF practice at
training camp.
Fohrs objection TO morning work
outs at camp is that he frowns on
making the players work harder
when they are fresh from a winter
layoff than they will have to work
in the midst OF the season. He has
two reasons for his opposition to
batting practice. One is that pitch
ers won't work as hard in practice
as they do in the games, so the
batters are not benefited. and that
batters will not face hard pitching
In practice as they do In games,
even II the hurlers do put some
thing on the ball. Club conferences
are opposed because he believes in
individual instruction.
