Hans Wagner's name ap-
pears on every ail-American
alI-star base ball team for all
time, and what the oId-time
star doesn't know about base
ball doesn't amount to much.
In this, the story of his career
told by himself. he tells you
what he knows-the skill of
men and teams and plays, the
development of the American
national game, all the ins and
outs that the base ball fan of
today wants to know about.
He gives pointers to the
youngsters and the college
player and he tells the old
hand where he can look for
new delights by watching for
fine points that most of us
overlook. Hans Wagner's
story is more than this, how
ever; to it he has brought his
sound philosophy and knowl-
edge of men, SO that the dia-
mond, as he talks of it, be-
comes as broad as the whole
world. And with a simplicity
that makes absorbing reading,
he has accomplished what
many skilled writer's fail to
achieve; he has given a living,
full-length portrait of a man

There are Just as great ball
players now as there ever were.
| don't believe, though. that
there are as many good ones in

ball playing has become highly

and dental professions have. In

No Pinch Hitters Then.
In those days we had never
heard OF a special batter to hit
right-handed pitching and an
other to hit leit-handcrs. The
pinch hitter was not known then.
If the man whose time it was at
bat couldn't deliver the necessary
pinch hit we simply let it go at
that. We had no substitutes or
utility men. If man sat on the
bench to be used in case of
emergency it was simply because
we liked him or he had a glove.

wanted to use.
Ny brother Al was good ball
player, though a lot OF fans seem
TO have forgotten it. He was
really my first teacher. Al PLAYED
on two or three different teams
in the big league later. His best
work was as an infeldcr for
Washington and Brooklyn.
In digging up the past dope my
early days seemed to be all mixed

played under the name of Al and
that OF William, my other

gine Of Kenesaw Mountain Lands as

Joint meeting of major league clubs
Previous to the meeting yesterday
there were those who looked for an

Out Of the joint meeting came four
teen amendments to the league rules.

provided coaches shall not be con-
sidered in the player-limit for clubs,

% and August 81, when it was fixed
at twenty-five.
Ban Johnson Opposed Rule.
President Johnson Of the American
League was opposed to the adoption
of the rule extending authority of
Commissioner LandiS over umpires.
As finally sanctioned the amendment
gives the commissioner appellate pow
erS in determining dispute over a
contract or right to services. but
gives him no authority in cases where
an umpire may become involved with
either Of the major league presidents
over a questionable decision or un-
becoming conduct.
That amendment will come up to-
day before the meeting of the Ma
tional Association of Professional
Base Ball Lea agues, and must he acted
