Steele to Stick
Browns Manager Convinces
Pitcher That He Shouldn't.
Join Federals.

ST. LOUIS. April at Is a rather pc
culiar thing that Manager Jones, of the
Browns. saved to the Cardinals Pitcher
Bob steele. who. in the first game OF
the spring series. defeated the team
managed by the friend who saved him
for n foe.
steele was with Vancouver, In the
northwestern League, in 1914. Jones
was then president of the Northwestern.
Steele had an offer from the Federal
League of $500 a year more than he was
getting at Vancouver. He consulted
Jones about the advisability of accent
ing the Federal proposition.
As became a loyal employee of organ
tzed ball, Jones advised Steele not to ac-
cept the Federal offer. Steele deferred
TO the advice OF his league president and
remained with Vancouver and the Car
dinals. Jones saved for Higgins the
man who was to humble him (Jones) in
the first game OF the spring series OF
1915
Higgins is very grateful to Jones. The
Cardinal manager thinks that in Steele
he has the best left-hander in the Ma
tional League. Prior TO Steele's trI-
Gmph OF Sunday Higgins said that n
The young man got control he would be
the best pitcher In baseball. Steele had
control on Sunday. He pitched prob
ably the best game ever twirled in
A Vermonter by birth. Steele ia a
Canadian by residence and upbringing
HIS family reside in Vancouver. He
played baseball In that part OF the
world. Eddie Herr. scout OF the Cardi-
mails, who seems to be a first-class
Judge OF young pitchers, picked up
Steele for $500 when the youngster was
pitching at Moose Jaw In the Western
Gambia League. Higgins farmed him
TO st. Paul last season. -
Steele is so much of a Canadian that
Sir Sam Hughes felt that he was in
duty bound to- join the Canadian con-
tlngent In Flanders.
Steele. as becomes a good baseball
player could not see 1t that way. ST
had no resentment against the Ger
mans" he says. and Flanders is a
long way from Vancouver. What
had seen of the Germans made me like
them. So instead of going to Europe
TO fight them thought would go to
st. Louis and play ball for them. I'd
rather have them cheer, or ride me in
ct. Louis than shoot me in Verdun. So
am here"

Hughey Jennings Says
Tigers Will Land Title
Predicts That Team Winning Ninety Games in 1916
Will Land the Pennant- Sorre-T Topped Lead
err to Rely on Vets For Coming Season.

wAxAHTACHIE, Tex. April g.
Manager Jennings. OF the Tigers. ex-
poets to win tho 1916 American League
pennant. He Is going to stand pat on
his 1915 lineup. which grabbed an even
IOO victories for him. but succeeded In
finishing only second best. This line
I'D, he believes, will be stronger than
II was year ago.
The team that wins ninety games this
year. Jennings says. will vim the
pennant. Jennings has let the Detroit
fans in on some OF his plans
for the year. Most important OF his
announcements WAS the statement that
he would again rely on his veterans.
Local baseball critics believe that the
Tiger attack will be stronger this year
than last. when It was one Of the finest
In baseball. Old Sam Crawford has
only an average of 30 to beat, and he
has had a great winter. Sam recently
declared he would be only ten pounds
over weight when he reports at Waxa-
hatchie.
Cobb also has had a good winter and
expects to repeat all his 1915 stun and
put over some new ones as well. Veach,
who came into his own only last year.
is expected to take place with the stars
OF the game as result OF his work
this season. These three men will plug
UP the outfield so tight that no rookie
will have a ghost Ola chance to break
| In. Jennings believes.
Burns, Young. Bush. and Witt are all
slated for another season as cogs OF the
inheld machine. Last year Burns held
down the first base job under the ham
dicap of a then recent operation for
Appendicitis. He will start this season
with that operation year old and Is
hoping to regain all his old speed.
From Young, at second and Donnie
Bush at short, Jennings doesn't ask
Ianything more than these men showed
| last year unless 1t is little heavier
stick work. Oscar Witt. the third sacker
who flashed into stardom in 1915. has
put on ten pounds. a valuable lot for
him, and expects to make his big
season.

Walsh and Matty Fade
Slowly out of Sight
Star Twirlers of Other Days Yield to Father Time
and Quit Scenes of Triumph-Today's SportoriaI
on Some Red Hot Topics You'll Like
By LOUIS A. BOUCHER.

Two groat pitchers, Christy Math-
ewson and Big Ed" Walsh, are
about to pass from the scene.
They have seen their greatest tri-
umphs. and must now pass on to the
shadows. giving way to younger
men.
Both Matty. king Of worlds series
,attles. and Walsh. wonderful Iron
man" of the Chicago White Sox. are
about to bend their heads in defeat.
That marvellous arm OF big Six"
has weakened. No longer can his
fadeaway puzzle the batsman. Long
ago his speed vanished. only his cum
ming and his fadeaway keeping him
on the first firing line.
That stupendous strength OF big
ED" has gone. His arm. tortured
cruelty In his many years on the dia-
mond, has refused TO obey further.
II has stopped. II has quit. So, too.
must he.
Twice last season Clarence Row
land sent Walsh to the mound, and
twice was he returned a winner. or
courFe. he did not face the hardest
teams, but then, no major league
team IL really so much to be despised
and Walsh must have had something
OF his old wtzardry.
The other day In a practice game
Walsh was hammered numerically
by the White Sox rockies. Worse
than that. that old breadwinner, his
good right arm, complained. II pain
ed and big Ed" knew then that the
bell had sounded.
Matty has been saved from very
much exertion this spring. Johnny
McGraw knows that. to win the PEN
nant In a tight race. he may need
Matty's science on the mound. Nc
Graw knows, too, that he Is leaning
on an exceedingly slender reed in
Matty.
The day of glory has gone for
both Mntty and Big I'd" They
have lived through wondered tri-
umphs. The future contains little
but memories for each OF them.

fxed mission the business Of organizing
the bowling centers OF the Atlantic coast
from Maine to Virginia Bowling. like
all sports and all Industries. has long
needed more organization. Tho game in
different localities has been SO VARYING
that the need for uniform rules and
bowling paraphernalia was seen and this
Is what the A. c. b. A. has started out
to accomplish.
A Standardization OF duckpin, tenpin
and candlepin balls and pins was first
started and the EFFORT met with assist
ance from all sides. This done IL was
made possible for n bowler living in
Richmond to go to Augusta and find the
same kind OF bowling material to roll
with that he was used to at home. Bos.
ton. Providence. Baltimore, and Rich

points, fell In line with the work and
all Joined together in making the game

Consequently, the game of bowling
has prospercd under the new regime,
just as baseball football, and other
sports reached the height OF progress
when they werc made uniform and the
same throughout the territory where
they are played.

will be the headliners in the infeid re-
serve crew.
The catching stan will again have
Oscar StHnage as the anchor man. with
Mckee and Baker as aides. There is
possibility, too. that Archie Yelle. a re-
cruit. will make the grade this year.
He Is brought back for n second trial
after n summer OF seasoning at Otta-
wa. where he helped win a pennant. II
worst comes to worst. the veteran Billy
Sullivan, best in the league in his
younger days with the White Sox, may
don tho mask and wind-pad. He caught
an even hundred games for Minneap-
oils last year. showing as good form as
any backstopper in the association.
incidentally, the Tigers are relying
lot upon Sullivan this year. Billy has
n reputation as being wonder at de-
veIoping pitchers. In fact, that's why
President Navin gave him a contract.
The pitching stan is the Tigers one
big worry. Jennings says he could rely
on COveleskie and Dauss for consistent
work, II he could develop pacemaker
10 work with them. lie doesn't know
so much about bill James. eX-member
of the St Louis Browns. who was pur-
chased for $4,000 during the latter part
OF last season. but he will be given
every chance TO make good for the
Tigers.
Oldham and Boland are yearlings
who have much to learn. Jennings re-
He'd on these five men to carry him
through last year. and they failed him.
They will be given another chance this
year. but probably will have help.
Hopes for an improved hurting corps
are pinned on Boehler. Loudcrmilk,
Cunnih CHAM. Erickson. McTigue. Fa-
gan. smithson. and Marshall. all young
sters.
Boehler and Loudermilk are credited
with having as much stun as any
pitcher in baseball. and both are bless
ed with unusual speed. But Sullivan
/ must teach them control or they will
ne worthless. Cunningham comes from
Chattanooga. where he was one OF the
best In the Southern League; Erickson
Is n Highlander from Rochester, and
McTiGue southpaw from Toronto
Fagau, who comes from Oklahoma
