MANY PLAYERS
BORN IN U. S.
Statistics Show that Few
Big Leaguers Are Not
American Natives.

Among the 400 ballplayers in big
league clubs last year there were
only a dozen or so who were not
born in this country, again DEM
onstrating baseball is absolutely an
American game.
The only big Ieaguers born on
foreign soil are Catcher Jimmy
Archer, born in Dublin; Catcher
George Gibson, a native of London,
Ont; Catcher Miguel Gonzales, of
the Cardinals, who halls from Ha-
vana; Pitcher George Chalmers,
Baseman Jimmy Austin, of the
Browns, born in Swansea, Wales;
First Baseman Mollwitz, of the
Cubs, who first saw light in Kol-
berg. Germany; Outfielder Marsans,
of the Yankees. another native of
Cuba; Rob Bescher and Jack Gran
ey, Canadians, and Jim Walsh, of
the Red Sox, who was born in Con-
naught, Ireland.
According to who's Who in Base
ball." an annual publication giving
all the past dope on the big
leaguers, Pennsylvania carries the
honor that used to belong to Ohio.
that of leading the country as the
birthplace of performers in the
major circuits.
Twenty-eight big leaguers were
born in the Keystone Stone, Illinois
and Ohio are tied for second place,
each with Is. New York boasts of
10. California of IS and Missouri of
IL, practically the entire dozen hav-
ing been born in st. Louis.
Indiana has sent up nine, Georgia
eight, Massachusetts eight and
Michigan seven. Texas and Iowa
each banks on six major leaguers,
with Virginia, Wisconsin. Maryland.
Nebraska and Tennessee each
pointing with pride to five Ala
bama, Kentucky. West Virginia and
North Carolina have four each, with
Colorado, Kansas and New Jersey
each stopping with three. Those
satisfied with a pair are louisiana,
Mississippi and South Carolina. The
States with just a single player list
ed in the book are Washington, Ari-
zona. Connecticut. Delaware. New
Hampshire, Oregon, Oklahoma,
Rhode Island and South Dakota.

n ANKING STARS
N OF THE
SPORT.
By JACK YEI0CK.
Ne 4-The First Basemen.

New York. Feb. l-who's the best
first baseman in the game today?
Among a majority OF baseball fans
sentiment will be divided between
George Sisler and Stuffy McInnis-
These two American League stars
are the ranking initial sackers of
the big show. They are real stars.
Both are great fielders. great hit
tiers and adopts around the initial
sack.
But because Of his versatile tall
ents, George Sisler ranks a little
above the former Athletic star. Sis
Ter is a better hitter and a better
base runner. He is more valuable
to a ball club because he can be
played in other positions. In rank
ing the first baggers. Sisters name
has been placed at the top of the
list, and McInnis stands second.
A former American Lacquer, whose
name has long been connected with
fame. is placed third. Hal Chase,
Prince Hal. the original contortiouist
around the initial sack, is the player.
Chase. however, is slowing down a
trifie. while his younger rivals are
at the crest of their careers, and.
therefore, more valuable at the pres
ent time.
Fourth place is awarded to Chick
Gandil, Of the Champion White Sox.
Gandn is a wizard as a fielder. He
covers all kinds Of ground and takes
the worst throws with a grace and
ease that permit but few to get by
him. He led the first basemen of
the two leagues in fielding this sea-
son.
Young Walt Holke. styled BY many
critics as a rather awkward per-
former around the bag. is somewhat
like Frank Baker in his movements.
But he gets there. and that is what
counts. Furthermore, Holke is young,
and he can hit He is placed fifth.
Ed Konetchy, Of the Braves. though
a veteran. still wields a mean stick
and ranks high as a fielder. Sixth
place goes to him. Seventh on the
list, as we have mated the bagmen,
comes Fred Luderus, of the PhilIies.
Luderus is a sure fielder and a
wicked hitter. Furthermore, he is
one of the sort of players who are
unsatisfied unless he is in every
game. Eighth place is awarded to
Hoblitzel. OF the Red Sox.

Grave Problems Presented
to International Moguls
at Meeting.

New York, Feb. 1.-The fate Of the
International League will be decided
here when the magnates meet at the
Imperial Hotel February IL This
year there are greater and graver
problems to deal with than the usual
routine Of making up a schedule.
1t seems almost impossible for the
league to remain intact. Montreal has
definitely quit. and with Rochester
and Richmond wavering. the league
itself is on the verge OF falling to
pieces.
The proposed plan to transfer the
Richmond franchise to Jersey City
will be taken up and will probably be
put into effect II Rochester leaves
the league 1t will be forced to run
the season with fewer clubs and
six-team pennant race is expected to
be evolved from the chaos that now
surrounds the league.
Then they face the no small job Of
selecting a president. Ed Barrow has
resigned and seems in no mood to
return to the helm. Several men
have been mentioned as president, but
the most likely candidate is Arthur
Irwin. OF the Toronto club.

CORNELL BOAT
RACESIN DOUBT
lthacans Are Worried Over
Inability to Arrange
Races. .

Coming closely after the an-
nouncement that Syracuse was fore.
ed to abandon rowing this year be.
cause Of failure 70 get coal "a
keep the gymnasium warm enough
to permit the oarsmen to practice
on the rowing machines. IS an in
timation from Ithaca that Cornell
will be forced TO give up the effort
Of forming a varsity crew. Cornell
has been trying TO get some def.
mite information from other col.
leges about their rowing plans, but
one has been able to outline any
schedule.
As Cornell will close next sprins
one month earlier than usual, the
rowing season Will be cut down con-
siderably. II was during May and
June that Cornell planned 20 hold
its dual regattas. Another reason
why the Comedians may have "a
give up dual races Is that Coach
Charles Courtney Is not physically
able to give the oarsmen the stten-
tion he has in the past Last Sea-
son the Cornell coach turned owes
most OF the active work with the
crews to John CoIlyer. but CollyeI
has entered the government servtcs
VIII nut llN
leaves Cornell without an active
rowing coach
The army and navy have taken
practically all of the experienced
oarsmen at Ithaca, and Il would re-
Quire more coaching than usual to
get a varsity crew into shape. As
Cornell has made q special effort 20
continue all intercollegiate competi-
tion. there is general regret that
rowing cannot be upheld. The only
chance for the sport Is that one or
two colleges agree to row dual races
early in the season and that the
Ithacans get a graduate coach TO
help out Courtney.
The decision OF a leading compet-
itor like Cornell TO give up rowing
would have q bad effect on the
sport. and the colleges that have
rowed the Ithacans in the past are
anxiously awaiting the final plans
of the rowing authorities. Cornell
has been the most successful OF the
colleges on the water. and since the
intercollegiate Regatta was inaug-
urated on the Hudson IN 1895, the
crews of Courtney have won thir-
teen out OF twenty-three races. Corr
nell won the regatta in 1915.
