TEN-FT. SCREEN BEING PLACED
ON CUBS RIGHT FIELD WALL
North Side fans are going to miss
the thrills of the frequent home run.
Charley Weeghman has decided to
appease the wrath of the seven
other National League magnates and
remedy the short right field wall.
Workmen are now building a ten
foot screen fence on top Of the
"hOme run wall" It is expected that
the addition will be finished by Sat
urday.
In spite of the fact that Cy Will
liams and other fOur-sack swatters
on the Cubs will probably be robbed
of their hero stuff, Joe Tinker says
he is pleased with the new barrier.
Joe figures that the eastern teams
with such long clOuters as Cravath,
Robertson, ETC., will be affected more
than the Cubs. He also says that the
Cub clOuters will be better off be-
cause they won't have their minds on
home runs and will be content with
the singles, which ought to occur
more frequently, according to his
dope.
With the new barrier the distance
between the home plate and the top
of the fence will be 3O8 feet. The
wire fence will extend from the right
field corner about $50 feet toward
center field. A batter can take as
many bases on a hit to the fence as
the OUtfieldeTs will allow.
Tinker has a new worry. 1t con-
Germs Eddie MuIligan. The young
ster is one Of those players who
make a manager tear his hair. One
day brilliant star, then next day a
badly-Tattled yOungsteT. In New
York, with MUggsy McGraw throw
ing his heaviest sarcasm at him, Null
Iigan played like Wagner in his palmy
DAYS. In the next series in BROOKLYN.
