YOUNG MAY PROVE
BETTER THAN BEN

Ross Young, erstwhile pride of
San Antonio. and now regular right
fielder for the Giants, looms up today
as a dangerous rival of Benny Kauff
in the race for the honor OF ranking
as premier outfielder of the New York
club
Kauff has already voiced the hope
that he will lead the club in hitting
this season, and after piling up an
average better than 300 in 1917 and
1918 Kauff's chances are brilliant.
This will be Kauff's fourth season
with McGraw. In 1916 he hit .264.
In 1917 he finished the season, swat
ting .3OS and last year, in sixty seven
games he hit $40.
Young. who is the youngest star
among National League outfielders,
has not yet reached the voting age.
Breaking in with the Giants as a reg
uIar last season he filled the shoes
left vacant by Davey Robertson to
the complete satisfaction of McGraw,
and when the averages were compiled
Young was credited with a swatting
average of .302 in l21 games. Hit
ting better than 800 in his first year,
Young ranks as one of the most
promising players who has entered
the Giant fold in many a day.

FLETCHER SWINGS.
SODOES MIDGET

RICHMOND, April 19.-Ike Davis, in
this cornet. and Art Fletcher in that,
boys, was the order Of events during
the diamond clash between the Wash
ington and New York clubs yesterday.
The Giants, it might be injected,
copped, to Z. but nobody cared much
about that. They were more interest
cd in the Davis-Fletcher contest.
In the fifth inning Fletcher was
caught between bases and, as he ran
down the Giants shortstop, Ike Davis
planted the ball rather roughly
against the New Workers. ribs. Up

judgment Of distance or accuracy,
though they seemed in earnest. In
rushed a couple of other players. At
first the fans thought there might be
a fight, but soon it was seen that the
rescuers were holding the infuriated
Fletcher and the doughty Davis.
Maybe they thought the boys would
hurt each Other. Foolish thought.

GIANTS MAY return
TO TEXAS IN 1920

Will the Giants go back to Gaines
willie next spring? That's a question
which cannot be answered at this
time, for many conditions not now
apparent may enter into the situation
by the time another year rolls around.
This much may De said for Gaines
Vile: 1t is a pleasant little town in
habited by hospitable people who did
their best to make the Giants feel
at home every minute Of their stay.
The hotel accommodations were very
much improved over those at Marlin,
and this phase Of the matter counted
strongly with the players.

good a State in which to train as

players, but he has been chosen "a

He has started off hitting at his old
time clip, though, and il is possible
that the honorary title may have done
him some good.
Al Wickland. the Braves best hit.
ter in 1918, is a hoId-out because
Stallings will not give him two
years contract. He is expected to be
traded within a few weeks.
Howard Ehmke has been chosen Ia

against the Cleveland Indians. He i
now in perfect condition, and De
troit's baseball bookies are backing
him to start the Jungalee-s off with
a victory.
Fred Mitchell is said to be far from
happy at the showing Of the National
League champions this spring. The
Cubs have a mighty pitching staff. ac-
cording to the wise ones, and that lets
them out.
The Brooklyn Dodgers started of
ahead of the Yankees, but when the
American Lcaguers got going, they
slaughtered the Robins largely because
Of superior pitching and heavier wal
Looping. Now Miller Higgins gang
can't be headed.
San Wick, though a bit green, is
likely to open the season in right field
for the Yankees, thanks to the char
leyhorsc found by George Halas. VicJ,

ton. and all Dixie is pulling for him

show. Warmer weather may enable
him TO take his turn, though spring
practice has failed TO see him shine
on the mound.
