VERSATILE ATTACK
Batting Order Alternates Be-

Special Dsspdtch 10 TEE Sun.

GAINESVILLE, Fla, March 26.-Just
how strong the Giants will be next sea-
son depends almost entirely on the pitch
ing stan, but one thing In certain, the
club will have one OF the most versatile
attacks ever known In baseball. From
Burns down to the pitchers McGraw's
batting order alternates between right
and left handed hitters.
Burns, a right handed batsman. leads
or and 10 followed by Young. who hits
from the south side Of the plate. Next
comes Hal Chase, who, though q famous
left handed fielding frst baseman. is a
right handed hitter, and he 10 followed
by Kauff. who does his hitting left
handed. In NTH place comes the famous
Bronx boy. Heinie Zimmerman, who has
been hitting right handed all his life.
and he IL followed by Larry Doyle, who
bats In the YoungKauff class.
Fletcher trails along In seventh place
and hits right handed. In the event
that the pitcher opposing the Giants Is q
right handler, Earl Smith. a left handed
batsman. will take crack at him.
In the event that the alien pitcher is q
southpaw Lew McCarty, a right handed
hitter. will bat. In that way McGraw
always can throw the maximum OF his
strength into every game.
TWO t'Fnctice sesstonss
When one considers that on paper
Arthur Fletcher is the weakest hitter
In the Giant batting order. one may
get a pretty good idea o. the punch
that McGraw's 1919 club carries.
To-day's workout varied little from
those OF the previous days this week.
McGraw did cut down the morning prac-
tlce a bit, but the afternoon workout
left the players pretty we'll used up.
There was the usual batting and fielding
practice, with Brogan. Cleary. Smith,
Benton. Ross, Steele. Jones and Ryan
serving up the projectiles for the hitters.
Tomorrow McGraw will put on his
first practice game Of the year. seven
inning affair in which the youngsters
will be given regular batters. while the
regular team will work behind colt pitch
ers and catchers.
There seems no longer any doubt that

JACKsoNvILE, Fla, March 26.-Afong
about Q o'clock this afternoon citisens Of
Jacksonville were surprised to hear .
dull cannonading across the St Johns
River. from the direction Of the Yankees
training grounds at Southside Park. Now
and then there was fash like creased
lightning. Cars halted their leisurely
progress down Hogan street. The whole
town was talking. 1t was all on account
OF young pitcher by the name Of Frank
ODoul.
II may sound like a gross exaggera-
ton, but the fact Ia that the cannonad-
ing was nothing more than ODoul's fast
ball landing In the mitt of Pat OConnor.
and the lightning. scintillations OF the
hurler's brilliancy. At the risk Of be-
ing called an overenthusiastic booster
We will say that this boy O'Doul Is the
goods. even II he Is left handed. He
came to the Yankees from the San Fran
cisco club Of the Pacific Coast League.
and right now IL the most advanced
pitcher in the Yankee squad. He has
speed to burn and hop like a hula
dancers.
O'Doul pitched on the coast as late as
st. Patrick's Day. and is all speeded up
to midseason form. Judging from the
extra attention he got from O'Connor to-
day O. Doul will start for the Yankees
against the Superbas on Saturday.
O'Doul In Fine Condition.
Next to o'Doul the most advanced
hurler L. Pete Schneider. the acquisition
from Cincinnati. Like O'Doul, Schnei-
der played all through the winter on the
coast and while he suffered an attack OF
influenza, is ready to work. George Mog-
ridge looks like the best Of the Yankee
veterans, with Neal Brady, recalled from
Toledo. running him rather close The
others are coming along fast, though
Shore has considerable to 20 before he Is
ready to take his turn.
The goats will be separated from the
sheep on Friday. when Higgins will
pick two teams to play a seven inning
prelude in the interleaue contest OF the
next day. By that time Higgins will
have all his regulars. with the exception
OF Baker. DufYy Lewis left Hot Springs
for this city this morning. and Is ex-
pected to take part in the practice to-
morrow afternoon.
The Yankees to-day had the usual two
sessions at top speed. The afternoon
workout was featured by q contro, drill
for the pitchers. with O'Connor directing
that work. In batting practice the Yam
kee infeld worked together like the we'll
known machine. Ward doing some espe-
.cially pleasing work at third base.
Brady says that no matter how hard
he Is called on to work here II seems like
a vacation after his 1918 experience in
the American Association, which he calls
the all-day league.
The records may not show Il, but I'll
swear that I pitched in 500 games last
season." said Brady. Somebody asked
