Chase at his best had on peer. Halls
brainy playing and method Of making
marvellous stops OF wlid throws made
him a sensation for ten years with
the Highlanders.
A wonderful player. Chase had a
tendency OF being over tempera-

and was often accused of wrecking
team work. Frank Farrell. former
owner of the Highlanders, tried to
cure Chase OF this weakness by max
ing him manager. but Hal wasn't the
man TO smooth out friction in the
ranks.
Chase was born In 1853 and is one
OF the oldest big leaguers. He came
10 tho Highanders in 1905 from Los
Angeles and was sensation from the
start. During the 1908 season some
thins peeved Hal and he packed up

With all things moving favOrnblr for

wnter-right seemed TO take Il sudden
slant against the local promoters. after
the failure to cripple stanton by the
attempt ia suppress two Of his subordi-

panicly rum"rs Ia the mir, none OF them
traccable to any definite starting point,

food dangers To which they We're ex-

sooner got the nervous rnnchmen puci-
lied by giving an indemnity bond for
any damage that might be done, thnn
other rumors sprang up. For one day
and yet another Smith fought mechan-
ically. developing the machinelike dog
