MUST BUILD REDS
FROM PLAYERS NOW
In MINOR LEAGUES

Cincinnati Dec. 35.-If the Reds get
any added strength between now and
March they will have to secure the re-
Inducements from the minor leagues.
quiet understanding has apparently
been reached by the other seven Ma
tional League clubs-"Nothing for the
Reds'-and this agreement will eff
fectiVely stop the champions from
landing any veterans except on terms
OF exchange which would subtract as
much strength from the club as would
be given. Two or three deals which
Manager Moran was hoping 10 bring
of have thus been blocked and the
Reds leader must sit by while the
other clubs trade among themselves.
This is only natural. and if the same
combination had been worked in
previous years there would have been
fewer flags in New York and Chicago.
Moran had hoped to get another
all-round infielder from some club,
new outfielder and n right-hand
pitcher to replace Roy Mitchell, but
the demands of the rival mana gers
are too heavy. Under no conditions
will Pat break up the regular align
ment. and the other fellows won't
give him anything worth having I'M
less they can have one OF the resu-
lar Reds i'm the deal.
This state Of affairs results, first
of all. in getting Charlie See a Chance
with the club. He will he taken
south. and Pat will work him hand
on flies and grounders. Tie can hit:
he IL the fastest thing afoot seen in
years. but he is a shaky fielder. II
he can be taught to go get them at
long distances he will vet be worth
the 1890 iron men that were paid
for his services.

HEROIC SAYS SERIES
STRICTLY ON MERITS

New York, Dec. 95.-'I saw all of
the worlds series games between the
Reds and White Sox." said Charles
Lincoln Herzog. second baseman Of
the Cubs. the other night. and they
were played strictly on their merits.
would be willing to bet my life that
there was no collision between GER
tain Chicago players and gamblers.
although I've heard stories to the
contrary. I watched the players of
both teams very closely and before
the first game was half over I arrived
at the conclusion that the White Sox
had gone stale
Before the series opened ! figured
that the Cincinnati pitchers would
make all kinds of trouble and such
proved to be the case. The tipoff was
the lamentably weak hitting of Eddie
Collins. Pat Moran had a good line
on Collins and felt sure that If Eddie
could be checked at the bat the Reds
would capture tie title. The fact that
Collins was an easy mark for the
Cincinnati pitchers explained the fail
ure of the other Chicago players to
hit with success.
