LAUDS HIS OLD-TIMERS
Were Superior to Modern Crop of
Players, Says Arson.
Amos Rusie, Buck Ewing and Bill
LANCE Best Men Game Has Ever
known-Tim keefe Also Was
Powerful Pitcher.

Cap Arson one Of the daddies Of
baseball. believes the old-time ball
players were superior to the modern
crop. Good baseball was played 20
years before the game was taken in
hand by the National league in 1876
said Arson. recently. But. of course,
in those days there were not so many
ball players 10 be had.
Yet with the present wealth Of ma
terial in the big leagues there are com
paratively few really good players. In
my opinion, Wagner and Lajoie, though
they are growing old, possess more
natural skill than the younger stars Of
today, with the possible exception of
Ty Cobb and Iris Speaker"
When asked If he had ever seen any
pitchers better than Walter johnson,
Christy Mathewson. Alexander and
other modern stars, Arson said. Yes"
He believes thar Amos Rusie. who
pitched for the Giants from 1890 I'M
til 1899. was the greatest Of them all.
"RuSie had as much speed as John
son, better control and the fastest
curve ball I ever saw" said Arson. He
was physically the superior Of John.

Babe Ruth and Dutch Leonard must
shoulder the heavy end OF the box
work If the Red Sox are to win the
American league peunaut this year.
During the FIRST seven weeks Of the
raee Manager Barry depended almost
entirely on these two pitchers TO keep
bis club in the running and they
came through nobiy. Ernie Shore
and Carl Mays, although both are
good pitchers, cannot he clasSed with
the first two mentioned, and The fact
thar Barry has not used them in q
greater number of games indicates
that he IS not confident Of their ability
TO come through Bader, the new
member Of the Red Sox regular staff.

son. Mathewson and Alexander. and
was built like JEFF Tesreau Of the
Giants. There was no limit to his en-
durance.
Tim keefe. who was with the Giants
back in 1883. was also a master. He
was among the first pitchers 10 perfect
what is known as change Of pace
The best catcher I ever s;w was
Buck Ewing. who caught for the Giants
when they won the worlds champion
ship in 1888 and 1889. I have never to
this day seen his equal, hut little Wal
tiers of the New York Yankees, reminds
me of Ewing'S throwing on bases.
Ewing was a quick thinker and a
natura}-born leader. Bill LANCE. who
PLAYED for me when I had charge OF the
Chicago National league club. was in a
class by himself as an outfielder. He
was a better outfelder than Cobb or
Speaker and a phenomenal thrower.
and one year he stole 1O6 bases"
How about Billy Sunday" Cap was
asked.
Billy is q better evangelist than a
bail player" was the reply. He was
the fastest runner that ever drew on a
spiked shoe when we played on the
Chicago team, but he didn't always ex-
ercise the best judgment in stealing
bases. He was an excellent outfielder
and fair hitter and his influence
among the Chicago players was good
