PROPOSED TOUR is DEcRIED
Tex Richard Talks Of Sporting condi'
tions In South America-Base-
ball Is Not Known.

That the proposed tour of the White
Sox and Giants this fall to South
america would be great experience
but slim money-maker was the opin-
ion of Tex Richard the other day.
Richard, who staged a number of great
matches, is on visit to this country
after a three-year sojourn in Paraguay.
Tex has quit the fighting game for
good, he said, and he is now one of
the cattle barons of South America.
'If the White Sox and the Giants
should take tour to South America
this fall" said Richard, they would
have to go as missionaries of our ma
tional game, as the natives know very
little about baseball

that the campaign in Flanders was

are the headquarters of fox-huntlng'
which most humanitarians denounce.
George Bernard Shaw, for example
has no words strong enough to con-

of a sporting novel, describing fox
hunting as war without its guilt and
only 25 per cent of its danger" 1t has
to be admitted, however. that they
who follow the hounds have answered
magnificently to their country's call.
There are, it proves, $50 masters
Of hounds with the British colors, 5000
members of hunts and 1,500 hunt serv-
ants To them must be added the Of
ficers of the regular army who are ac-
customed to ride to hounds, likewise
numbering some thousands. The total
is an impressive one. 1t suggests that
the real attraction of this sport may
be that it is, as Jorrocks said, "a sort

throwing out base runners from re-
mote corners of the outer garden. In
his day Fielder Jones was past mas
ter in pegging the ball from the out
field and nipped many runners.
In the National league, since 1900,
Murray of the Giants has the most con-
Bistent record in making assists, he
leading the league in four seasons.
But the old boys back in the halcyon
days of the eighties made some aston
lshing records in throwing out base
runners from afar off. Jimmy Fogar-
ty of the Phillies averaged an assist
from the outfield every third game he
played in. Sam Thompson OF the old
Detroits and Phillies was a mighty
thrower and was a terror to all base
runners when he grabbed ball in the
outfeld, for Sam could flash a ball to
any base with startling accuracy.
