DOCTOR DECLARES
MATHEWSON IS ON
ROAD TO RECOVERY
Attending Physician 5 avs
Peerless Pitcher Is Conquer
ing in Fight With Death.
BY BILLY EVANS.


How Is Christy Mathewson getting
along?
That question is put to me more
often than any other one relating
% baseball.
There never was greater base
ball idol than Christy Mathewson.
He was beloved by fans the country
over.
Now that Matty IS making stern
I fight against the great white plague
/ at Saranac lake every bit of news
I relative 20 his condition is OF much
! interest.
From time 10 time the wires have
/ carried various bits OF news about
I his progress. one would say that
/ he was gradually recovering his
health A few weeks later another
I report would have him sinking rap
Idly.
! Recently attended the Block s
| dinner given in honor OF the star
/ atniets at Syracuse university. II
! was my very great pleasure TO talk
/ before the student body on baseball
and athletics in general. Incident
/ ally I had the honor Of comforting
/ the college letter on each winner of
! the much priced s.
At tho dinner were many OF the
old grads. Among them was DR.
Edward NJ. Packard. DR. Packard
was captain and stroke Of one Of the
, greatest crews Syracuse ever turned
/ out.
/ DR.. Packard is now a practicing
physician at Saranac lake. He is
the personal physician TO Mathew
son.
After the Introduction. the first
thing said to DR.. Packard was:
How is Matty getting along?"
1T seems as if everyone is inter
ested in Matty." replied Dr. Pack
ard. $50 many people have asked
me that question this evening thar
/ phoned 10 Mr.. Mathewson a shor;
time ago and asked If might make
( a public amour cement of his con-
I dition. and he consented"
Matty Is Getting Well.
'Mathewson IS on the road to
permanent recovery. 1t may take
[ several years before he can venture
away from Saranac for any great
/ length Of time. 1t will also be neces-
sary that he spend part of each year
I in the Adirondack mountains.
"Matty has been at deaths door
three or four times. Twice I have
| despaired Of his recovery.
Il am told there never was
gamer pitcher than Matty. From
! personal observation I can believe
| that statement.
1T was in the pinch that he
/ fought hardest for his life. He sim
ply refused to think that he was
about TO die His great courage
more than anything else won the
fight.
"Mathewson weighs 100 pounds
today, which was his weight when
IN the best Of pitching condition. He
/ looks as we'll as he ever did, but, OF
course, lacks the old-time strength.
After a consultation of doctors
we collapsed the right lung. That
is not uncommon, however, and one
can get along just as we'll with one
lung.
In all probability Matty will be
able to pay the Polo Grounds a visit
some time during the summer for a
short stay. / know that is one ambi-
ton he cherishes.'
DR.. Packard's statement of Math-
ewson's real condition was very in
teresting to me. 1 am sure it will
prove the same 10 every fan that
ever read a box score.

There is apparently more ambition

The second game of the series be- tween the New Britain and Meriden police baseball teams, will be played tomorrow afternoon at St. Mary's field The game will start at o'clock. There has been large sale of tickets for the game, and big crowd will witness the fray. Last week at Meriden, the teams surprised, by playing a 10 battle, the Silver City minions of the law putting across a pair of tallies in the ninth inning. Manager Tom Storey and Captain O'Mara are confident that the result will be reversed tomorrow.
 Politis and o'Mara will comprise the locals battery, while Baer and Boldt will be in the points for the visitors. Jimmy Naughton will be the umpire. After the game a banquet will be held at the Elks' club and will be for those holding tickets ONLY. The committee has secured John O'Brien, John J. Kiniry and Frankie Clynes to furnish the entertainment.
 The Corbin team scored first S'S~N AA tiiN SCllNo Nltll tllC NdGcyS While the breaks" did not favor the kaceys, credit must be given the win ners for the spirit shown when the eeam was four runs to the bad"
 For four innings Mccormick looked mighty good on the mound, allowing the Corbin team only one hit, but after the Park street boys began to solve him, there was nothing to his twisters that baffled.
 Wolf, the Corbin pitcher gave splendid exhibition on the mound. AL though he was hit safely for eleven bingles, with the exception of the fourth inning, he was not in very much danger, although that catch of Corbin in the ninth inning, surely did help Wolf considerably.
 Clinton was the clouting hero for the winners Jimmy getting two singles and a double. His first single drove in the tying run. Schneider also did well at the bat getting two hits, his double in the tenth inning produc-
