There has been considerable hulana,
leo as TO Just VINO Manager Lee Fohi
will staten at the initial sack the COM
ing campaign. There appears TO be a
general opinion in some sections, and
particularly on the Pacific coast. that
Chick Gandil hasn't got mucn chance
of hanging fast to his present berth.
All this is because the Cleveland In
dams owners went to big expense
during the season recently closed 10
acquire Louis GuistO from the Port
land club OF the Pacific Coast League.
rEe Italian youth was the most
sought-after player in the minor
leagues, and the Indians were con
graduated when they landed him.
GuiSto came to Cleveland amid flare
of trumpets as to his general allround
ability It was said that he could
field a-la-Chase; take a toe-hold on a
pail in much the same manner that
good old Larry Lejoie, Ed Delahanty,
Sam Thompson and other famous
right-hand hitters did in the days gone
by and that lie was as fast as a
frightened jackrabbit on the paths.
Good Record
Guisto's record with Portland, his
first year in professional baseball,
bore cut these contentious, and Own
er Dunn, vice-President McRoy, and
Manager Foil all shock hands with
themselves when the big fellow kick
ed the dust OF the Pacific from his
feet and started Eastward to join the
tribe. To cut a long story short,
GuIsto reported to Manager Foil, and
was assigned to the duties around
first sack. To the big chaps credit
il must be said that he did stack up
like an 1S-karat fielder. and also
seemed to be faster than the usual
run of players of his physical make
UP, but he didn't get many toeholds
on the horsehide while he disported
himself in Indian regalia.
The fans didn't have very long to
get line on Guisto, for he had only
participated in half dozen games
when he was taken i'll and had to re-
tire in favor of the man he had sue.
ceeded, namely Chick Gandil, and as
his condition did not improve to any
marked degree, he never got back in
harness during the remainder of the
kseason. Guisto's record on the coast
warrants his retention by the Indians
for the coming spring training trip
at New Orleans In fact, It would be
a big mistake, should the Cleveland
club leave him home or transfer him
to some minor league organization.
Given a Chance
Manager Foil insists that Guiso will
be q member of the Indians during the
stay at New Orleans, and that he will
be given every opportunity to show
his wares against those of Gandil.
Jim Dunn would scarcely invest the
better part of $1,000 in a player
without Foil getting far better look
at the man than he had of Guisto in
this city during September. But the
Pacific coast critics who are taking 1t
for granted that Guisto has the first
base job won without a struggle, are
barking up the wrong tree, for he
will be opposed to a man, who with a

reference to the creation of a new
county l can make no better denial
than is contained in the following af.
fidavit which speaks for itself:
State Of Colorado,
County of Garfield. 90
William NJ. Dinkel, being first duly
sworn, on his oath, says: That he is
a candidate on the Democratic Primary
ticket for the office of State Senator
from the 2lst Senatorial District.
Atfiant further says that the state.
ment persistently circulated throughout
the district, that he is planning, if elect
ed, to have portion of Garfield, Eagle,
Pitkin and probably Gunnison counties
formed into new county, with Car.
bondale as the county seat, are wholly
false and misleading.
Affiant further says that should such
an issue arise, he will, if elected, oppose
the formation of the new county. That

and authorizes the publication Of same,
