Indian Backstop Again
Shines Among
Catchers

NEW YORK. June 24.-Chief
Meyers has come into his own.
Discarded by John McGraw as
Through" looked upon by Polo
grounds fans as once great catch
er who had slipped back immeasur-
ably, the chief has accomplished a
wonderful comeback and is an idol
In Brooklyn today.
It 10 an admitted fact that a play.
Or. grown stale. will often stage a
startling change in form when he
dons the uniform OF another team,
and this is exactly what has hap,
pened In the case of John Tories
Meyers. the college-bred aborigine
W. The chief has had a rather pic.
turesQue career. A graduate OF
Dartmouth, he took three-year
postgraduate course in baseball In
the minor leagues and came to the
Giants from st. Paul in 1908, cost
ing the club $4,000. At Marlin In
the spring Of 1909 he jumped into
the limelight az a long distance hit
ter and was received by the New
York fans with open arms. Person.
atty, a quality In which so many
players are lacking. stuck out all
over the chief. and for six years
he was one OF the most popular
players who ever wore a Giant uni
form.
II was last year that Meyers gave
the frst indication that he was
slipping. and there were few regrets
on the part of the fans when the
Indian was sent TO Brooklyn and
Bill Rariden was signed TO take his
place In 10 games last year he
bit the ball for an average OF ex.
actly .232. and II appeared that he
was about ripe for the minors.
Then came the transformation
not only In his batting, but in his
catching. Meyers loomed up In
great form behind the bat wheT
the Robins opened the present sea
son, and he has maintained a steady
pace ever since. The result Is thai
he ranks second only TO Uncle Rob
bic In the affection of the fans
across the bridge. He looks like q
different man today, and his timely
hits have broken up more than one
game for the league leaders.
