grabbed seventeen victories for the
Cubs, while Fred Toney, iron man that
he is, won fourteen and lost seven
teen with Cincinnati. Bill Doak won
twelve games and lost eight and Dave
his best shape last year, copied an
even dozen games and lost eleven with
the Browns.
But what a difference a run-get-
ting club would make in the averages
of this staff in a season. Every one
of them should be good for from
eighteen to twenty victories if they
were called upon to pitch that many
games. and the manager who had a
staff like this would be sure of send
ing a reliable hurler to the hill every
day.
While it is unfortunate in a way
that such pitchers must be tied down
to some of the weaker offensive clubs,
it is a mighty good thing for base
ball when the weaker teams upset a
winning streak started by the stronger
clubs, and when good pitchers of the
weak clubs hook up with such stars
as Walter Johnson, Grover Alexander,
Babe Ruth, Guy Morton. Slim Sallee,
Ferdie Schupp or Reb Russell there is
generally a pretty mound battle in
store for the fans.
There are other pitchers tied with
some of the weaker clubs whom we
have neglected to mention here and
who are considered equally as good. 1t
is this class of pitchers who keep the
managers guessing.

TO EvADE THE DRAFT
Many Kansans May Be Permitted to
Enter the National Guard.

Kansans subject to call to the colors
under the consumption bill may be
urged toenlist in the National Guard
or regular army, if a plan by mem
bers of the state defense council is
worked out. Under this plan all
Kansans would be enabled to volunteer
for service rather than come under
provisions of the CONSUMPTION bill.
Details of the CONSUMPTION bill have
not been made sufficiently clear to
assure successful operation of the plan,
altho it will doubtless be advanced
if each state IS given credit for Ma
tional Guard enlistments under the
call for troops. Prof. w. F. Black
mar of Kansas University, favors a
provision permitting young men to
volunteer for service rather than go
to the front under a CONSUMPTION meas
ure. Because of his opposition to
CONSUMPTION measures he urged the
possibilities of an optional volunteer
system at a meeting of the home
guard committee of the defense
