INGRAM GIVES DOYLE, HUNTER
AND JACOBSON FOR HEINIE
ZIMMERMAN

Helmet Zimmerman has finally left
the Chicago Cubs, Manager John j..
McGraw announced at the Havlin Ho-
tel last night that he had traded Larry
Doyle, Hunter, the first baseman, and
Nose Jacobson, an outfielder, now at
Rochester, to Chicago for the smuggling
Zim.
The trade was completed over the
telephone, President Weeghman acting
for the Chicago Club. The passing of
Merkle and Doyle from the ranks Of
the Giants within a few days shows
that McGraw is determined to build
up a new machine. Both of these vet
Grams have been slowing up ana as
McGraw wants speed he soon found
a way to get it, Zimmerman has been
in the big leagut for many seasons,
Frank Chance secured him from the
New York State League. He is a Won
derful mechanical ball player and can
hit 'em a mile. This season he has
found it impossible to get along with
Manager Tinker and the latter put him
on the market. Brooklyn, Boston and
Philadelphia have been bidding for
him, but the Cub management decided
to accept the offer of the New York
Club.
For Zimmerman, Tinker secures
Doyle, a winning ball player in his
day, but he has been slowing up late
-ly. Hunter is young collegian who
has been performing at first base since
Merkle left the club. Jacobson is an
outfielder and was sent to Rochester
under an optional agreement and was
recently recalled to report at the end
of the International League season.
Zim may join the Giants this morn
ing. II he does. he will be seen in ac-
ton this afternoon.
Manager McGraw recalled the fact
last night that Larry Doyle played his
first and last game as member of the
New York Club in Cincinnati. New
York secured Doyle from Springfield,
He reported when the Giants played in
Cincinnati and was sent to second
base. In his first game he made two
unusual plays Twice with man on

pressing tho hope that the British gov
