Galloway finished the 1921 season
rs keeper Of the shortstop spot on
the Athletics inner Gordon, and he
will hold that post when the 1922
race starts.
Opportunity knocks loud at Gala
ways door. This six-footer, who dis
places 10 pounds, took part in four
teen games last year He has mas
sive talons and swoops along the
sward like a sandsnipe. Frank Is
loyal and ambitious and wants to
make a signature for himself in base
ball.
Mack was deeply impressed by his
commendable play last fall. and is
considering only the Blue Ridge
mountain youth for the shortstop
portfolio.
Before joining the Macks last sea
games for the Knoxville Appalachian
League team and batted $50. He
stole seventeen bases. This was his
first professional engagement. He
hit $40 with Mack.
Galway came to the Knoxville
team dierctly from the University Of
Tennessee, where for four years he
was its athletic mazda.
Now that Dugan goes to Boston,

Galloway alone.

way also outhit Mike Mentally,
Johnny Walker, Ray Schalk, Earl
Smith, Frank Brewer, Tom Hendryx,
and several others with hitting repu'
tations.
1t also must not be forgotten that
Galloway had poor start in hitting
last year, but In the last two months
Of the championship race must have
batted above the 900 mark.
Chick Galloway indicated Con
ME Mack's judgment by his wild

1921. He was one of the worst

Connie knew better and kept him.
With Houser at first, the compe'

Such Is the rapid rise to prominence
that the "Fordham Flash" has made.
he had the natural ability and was
sensible enough to appreciate the
value of clean living. and ambition

fession.
Frankie Frisch. as We call him up
In the Bronx, after adopting profess
sional baseball as a means OF advance
ment. lived up to what his ambitions
desire to excel made him feel was the
only course TO pursue.
1t was not necessary possibly for
him to be any different from other
athletic college boys to reach the goal
of his ambition. His father is a promt-
nent merchant and a successful one.
There was nothing that would have
prevented Frank from becoming
prominent in some other profession
than baseball. He was good at all
games and sports of all kinds that he
took up. His parents objected strong
ly to his going into professional base
ball.
F'risch. however, with the red blood
of Amertcanism surging through his
veins desired above all else to con-
tinue as an athlete. Finally he over
came the objections OF his mother and
father.
Frisch Joined the Giants, and owing
to the illness of Larry Doyle, the
Giants favorite second baseman,
frankie was afforded the opportunity,
without being obliged to warm the
bench, to jump right into the Giants
games.
What did the youthful Fordham
University lad do right off the reel?
Why he sprang one Of the biggest
sensations that baseball has ever
known. From the very start Of his
big league career he Jumped into a
popularity that was phenomenal. He
even made local fans forget Larry
Doyle, and that in itself was a spec
tacular incident.
Frisch was played at third base
last season, and led all the National
League players in base running. He
wound up the season of 1921 with
play that gave the worlds cham
pionship to the Giants. Going some.

Now, as reward for his gres I
work during last season and in the
worlds series, Frisch was allowed to
sign q contract with the New York
club for the seasons of 1922 and
1929 at salary that Manager
McGraw says makes the "F'ordham
