Buffalo Developer
Of Star Catchers

Where the Portland Coast League
club has enjoyed the reputation Of be-
ing great team to develop pitchers
and shortstops, Buffalo must be enti-
tied to the prize for turning out star
catchers
Jimy Archer was not good enough
for Detroit in 1907. Two years pre-
.viously Pittsburgh also had sent him
back to the minors. Buffalo took him
one OF the real great backstops, and
one year was all he had to stay at Buff
falo
Bill killcfcr was not clever enough
for the st. Louis Cardinals in 1910 ana
he drew ticket to Buffalo. He lin
gered there just long enough to show
that he had the real goods and then
went on to the Phillies.
Wally Schang put in part of the 1912
campaign with the Bisons. Eleven Of
the sixteen big league clubs put in
drafts for him. Connie Mack was the
lucky manager.
Hank Gowdy was too slow for the
Giants. McGraw let him go to Buffalo
Tor the season of 1913 and the follow
ing October Hank was the big noise in
the worlds series, being a big factor
in the four straight victories scored
by the Braves
Buffalo, however, is not the only In
ternational League town to develop
star backstops. Bill Carrigan and Bill
Fischer got their start at Toronto.
Tom Clark and George Gibson served
at Montreal prior to landing in the big
league. Eddie Burns, of the Phillies,
was with Montreal in 1918. Oscar
Stanage, of the Tigers; Forest Cady,
of the Red Sox, and Lew McCarty, of
the Giants, came from Newark.

Hickey Favors
Military Drill
In Associations

CHICAGO, Feb. 2.-Military train
ing of baseball players will be carried
out in the American Association next
season, Thomas j. Hickey, president Of
the league, has announced. Efforts
probably will be made to have the War
Department detail military instructors
with each of the eight clubs. These
details will be mapped out at the
schedule meeting of the association, to
be held in Milwaukee next month.
President Hickey said the assoca-
ton faces every prospect of success
full season, despite the war, but, at
the same time, twill always be ready
and only too willing to be governed by
the wishes of the government and its
needs"
eve look forward to good year."
he said. "The people have become so
accustomed to baseball I think they
would be lost without it. The 1917
season was good, considering all con-
ditions. Naturally. alter war was de-
clared, the excitement following, occa-
stoned by the efforts toward enlist
ments, diverted the attention of the
people from their regular channels,
causing them temporarily to forget
amusements and recreation.
Baseball Real American Game
"People must have some kind of
outdoor amusement. Some play golf,
some tennis, others motor. But the
masses enjoy baseball 1t is truly the
American game. The Federal Adminis-
tration has approved the game. We
drilled our players in military tactics
last season and will do it again next
season."
AS an argument that people want
ferred to the situation in Toronto,
Canada, which last season won the
International League pennant
Toronto had the best year in it's
history" he said, gin face of the fact
that Canada has been deeply in the
war for more than three years and
the fact that 10 per cent of Toronto's
population is in the military service.
This shows plainly that the people
want ion-and that baseball is
the kind they like"
Talks of Freak Pitching
Legislation barring the spitball and
Otner freak uellFeIlcS WAS q Step TO-
ward improving the game, President
Hickey believes.
"The ball was made to use as it is,
not to be doctored, and we are going
to prevent its being changed in any
way" he said. "Ths viii increase
batting, and, as the people like lots
of free hitting, it undoubtedly will
add interest to the game"
With the signing of Edward +.
(Ned) Egan as pilot of the Milwaukee
club, the management roster Of the as

ton of indianapolis. James c. Nc
Gill, owner of the club. has several
leaders under consideration to succeed

Yale and City College to
Open Second Round of
Series for Title

The championship tournament Of the
Intercollegiate Swimming Association,
interrupted by midyear examinations,
will be resumed on Friday with re-
turn meet at New Haven between Yale
and City College. The engagement
marks the opening of the second round
of the title series, which promises to
be unusually interesting. The first
round served virtually to eliminate sew
cral of the teams from the pennant
race, but furnished convincing evidence
that the final clashes between Yale and
Princeton for swimming laurcls, and
Yale and Pennsylvania for water polo
leadership, will be among the closest
varsity water sports.
Columbia and Pennsylvania were also
booked to try conclusions on Friday
but the Quakers asked for a postpone
ment, and the Morningside watermen

urday, instead.
Miss Olga Dorfner, of the Philadel
pha Turngemeinde, accomplished
remarkable feat recently in setting

record of / minute 7 Is seconds in
the home pool. 1t should be remem
hered that the Turnge bath ex
ceeds regulation length BY several

The Quaker maid, therefore, must
have passed tire 10O-yard mark, in

against the worlds pool record of

The Office Boys Corner
By Louis Lee Arms .

The possibility of Eddie Plank re-
firing and thereby upsetting the cal
culations of the dear old Yankees has
sent Irving Schneider, the day office
boy and author of the verse, "Cham-
paign, Oh Sweet Champaign"
scurrying to the typewriter.
Grasping the crux of the matter
Versifer Schneider indcts burning
appeal to Mr.. Plank, filled with SEN
timental interest and concern for the
battle-scarred veteran. AS might be
expected, the verse is entitled eddie
Plank" and runs as follows:
~. EDDIE PLANK. turn your crank
Get realty for the fray
lou are clerer and on your experience
all lcN bank
With the Yankees you 1uiiL man.
Pact up your grip and get in trim
You got q fo1o years get
And shom those Veterdns ,chat is sim
TOuU shoU 'ar1 DON'T uou fret
In years gone by you tDas the guy
Who dtd the 1Oorh for M0cl,
In euery game yoM did t,v
No matter ho,u far back.
You ardS one Of the machine
That trOn peNnuNts galore
Goa to the totd Vou hnow arhdt nrea,
Come here and uin some more.
We need you sure omr noun osters to cure
A ueterGn ike you are need
You can't quit the game nolp baseball is to
much OF ure
And those cords you sad lro wN not heed.
These words are meant Just for you
And hope you grant mn plea
There's rery feW men ike you
And teao like you aoiil there cror be.
1t looks as though there will be
nothing for Mr.. Plank to do but come
back and pitch again after all.
A new contributor joins "The Cor
ner" this week in the person of Ben
Katzman, Adv. Dept" as he signs it,
1t makes us feel like a mighty i'm
portant parsonage to have the "Adv.
Dept" knocking at our door for ad-
mission. Benjamin's initial inspira-
ton is entitled, "The Sons of the
L. S. A." 1t is unfortunate that the
entire verse is too long for reproduc-
ton, but the stirring lit of the thing
may be grasped from the first two
stanzas, which follow:
WYE the sons Of The Z. S. A
" The people stop to stare at rs
You're heard much about,
Whenever zee 80 oa'.
We're noted for or accuracy
In most evorythinG do
We're gained the confidence Of ou'ry People
And ce hope youN Ike rs too.
Benjamin has proved it is possible
for man in the advertising depart
ment to appreciate that the sun, moon
and stars do not revolvc around CLASH
fed and display advertising. Looking
into the future, it is hopeful sign.
