MATTY PRAISED
FOR GOOD WORK

I'm spite OF the Reds sudden fall
from grace, Christopher Nathewson
is not held responsible by Cincinnati
critics. He is receiving much praise
Tor the way he has obtained results
with the material in hand
Matty has learned from experience
that ball club must carry more
than three first class pitchers to
make successful battle for leading
honors- Toney. Schneider and Mitch
ell are the only veteran boXmen on
the Red team. Regain. who has done
fine work, IS a newcomer in the VA
uonal league, while Eiler and Ring
lack quality.
Matty, therefore. will reach out for
more pitching material He has Sc
cured Eeuther from the Cubs and
Wheezer Dell. who was OF no material
assistance to the BroOklyns. But Big
Six intends to keep on experimenting
until he strikes the proper combina-
ton As manager the former Giant
idol has won his spurs.
