New York Giants Manager
Has Trouble Rounding
Out Pitching Staff.

Manager McGraw OF the Giants -
looking 10 Freddie schupp and Jimmy
Middleton TO solve the one problem that
confronted him as the Giants entered
the National league race this year
that OF rounding out the pitching staff.
Despite the fact that the Giants
started their campaign as prime favor
ties for the pennant, McGraw had 4
faint misgiving regarding his pitch
ing staff. for he could not be sure that
his decentralization. Perritt- SalleO
and Tesreau would all be there In the
tight places He was not sure that
these four seasoned hurlers would all
hold up and he staked his chances on
his two young pitchers
Schupp's remarkable pitching during
the latter part of 1916. was a revela-
ton TO the National league. for II is
seldom that a young left handler ever
shows the nerve and the control thu
was shown by Fedin and, especially
during the long series in which the
Giants established the worlds record
for consecutive victories.
Middleton. with a world OF minor
league experience and a record a mile
long to back him up. has been rated
the best pitching prospect OF the year
