TEACHES MAISEL HOW TO HIT
Dan Brouthers, Famous Slugger Of
Old, Makes 800 Hitter Of Little
Yankee Third-Sacker.
wAHoo IS TO COACH CARLISLE
Nv FRANK @. MENKE.

NEW YORK. June 2G.-Dan Brouthers,
famous as a slugger I'm the bygono days
of base ball. seems to have developed
Fritz Maisel Of the Yankees into a nifty
little clouter
Maisels greatest weakness up 20 the
early part Of this season was mis- bat
ting. He used to use light war club
and swing with all his might.
Don't do that" Brouthers told
Maisel shortly after the season opened.
You've got a good eye and good Judg-
ment and you would oe a good hitter II
you didn't swing 80 hard"
How'll ] swing. them" asked Maisel
OF Brouthers. who is employed at the
Polo grounds.
Get a big club and swing easily" was
the answer. Just swat the ball; don't
try TO kill t. Always use a big bat
When you use a light one It's too great
temptation to swing with all your
might That puts you off your balance
and you can't hit successfully. An the
leading batters OF this day and Of the
old days use heavy bats"
After Brouthers had spent about half
an hour a day for a week teaching
Malsel how to use big bat and how 10
swing It Maisel carried the bis bat
into a game. The result was that Maisel
got two hits. The next day he got two
more and ever since he's been hitting
at 800 clip.

Caddies sometimes nave a ready an
swer for disgrintled golfers. as the fol-
lowing story will show:
A dub golfer went on the links one
Gay to practice. He sliced In a horri-
BILE fashion and his caddy had to run
TO every quarter TO retrieve the ball.
After three balls had been lost the
golfer, in an angry mood. snapped:
boy, thought you came out here
to look after the balls?"
And the caddy responded;
well, mister, II you thought that way
II seems that we both made sort of
mistake, because / thought you came
out here TO play golf"
wRhoo 20 Succeed Warner.
Carlisle foot ball authorities probably
will name Charley Wahoo. as coach for
the 1915 foot ball eleven TO take the
place of Glen Warner. who resigned
during the winter 70 take charge Of
the University Of Pittsburg outfit.
wahoo was one OF tho most femous
Indians that ever played an end posi-
ton. He was on the l9O6-O6-0 Carlisle
elevens and since then has coached some
OF the elevens in the south.
Latoie Teaches Malone.
Larry Lajoie is showing his real man
hood by devoting all his leisure time to
teaching Ted Malone. the new second
50 ker of the Athletics. the intricacits of
the second basing Job.
Malone is a 1915 college graduate and
looks like conner. Lajoie is old and
fading. Without Lajoie's aid It might
be two or three years before Malone
would develop into a real star. For just
that length of time Lajoie would be pretty
sure of his Job as an Athletic regular.
