for the new stars Of baseball, the kids
who are to take the places OF the
Ruths and Burnses. the Alexanders
and Johnsons, are coming in from
bush and school to get their fall trials
with the big league teams.
From present orders, the crops Of
youngsters who will be tried out this
fall will be the largest ever gathered
by the scouts. Not all Of them. of
course, will have a chance to show
what they can do this fall, for teams
which still have even fighting chances
for positions in the races will not give
them the chance until hope is dead.
How many youngsters have been
picked up by the scouts is not clear.
This writer has recorded eighty-two
players from colleges, minor leagues
and the independents who have been
signed for trial. The greatest number
credited to any one club is TO the New
York Yankees. who, according to ths
rolls, nave lnTlteH MUS uiluti ~ Oiiiioc
OF trial, eight of whom were college
stars.
Not all OF these will be called upon
to try out this fall. In fact, four At
least have been ordered to report to
minor clubs for schooling. The
Chicago Cubs are reported to have
nine youngsters and the White Sox
ten, with many others In view.
The Yankees and Cleveland, Pitts.
burgh and the Giants, and probably
the Braves and Robins, will delay
summoning recruits for some time, us
they are still fighting for position.
The tail-end clubs already are calling
them In for looking over.
All this is extremely promising.
There are, or will be, about forty
vacancies on the big league teams to
be filled next spring II satisfactory
material can be dug up. The young
sters have more of a chance of max

Fund Distribution
Depends On Service

The amount of money that each Of the
40 organizations in the Community Chest
will receive, is determined by a board
composed Of Frederic NJ. Ayres, Fred
Hoke, L. G. Huesmann, E. A. Kahn, VIII
liam J. Mooney, Mgr. Francis 81. Gavisk,
James W. Lilly, Hugh Mex Landon,
Evans Woollen, James NJ. Ogden and Rev.
Thos. W. Grafton. These men have
studied the needs Of each of the partic-
ipating bodies, and the budget reflects
their conscientious judgment as to the
constructive service it is possible for each
of the organizations to render.
This board has devoted many hours to
the work and will continue to administer
the affairs of the Chest during the year,
the members serving without pay.
Whether your dollar goes to one or an
other of these societies is of no particular
Importance to you. All who are I'M
fortunate are your neighbors. You want
them all cared for, and it requires the
combined efforts Of the 40 organizations
to perform this service. It takes your dol
lar and the dollars of all other good
citizens to finance the whole work. Race,
color or creed count for nothing when true
charity performs its service. Your dollar
in the Community Chest will do greater
work than if you gave it to an individual
society.
