Giants Secretary Makes 1t
Vegy Plain That Jack Won't
Get Sale Coin.

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-The New
York Giants have slammed the door
in Jack Bentley's face.
Just when the $4,000 pitcher had
crept up to their threshold with his
hat in his hand and made a modest
demand for $4,000 of the purchase
price that was paid to Jack Dunn, of
the Baltimore Orioles, for his left arm
as pitcher and his sterling wallop
as a batsman, Jim Tierney, secretary
and assistant treasurer, walked out
on him with this statement:
I'm regard to Jack Bentley, the
New York club in paying Sos, 200
opens the way for him to make good
in the National League; which would
mean, in the event of his success, a
large salary during all his playing
years.
Without any solicitation upon the
part of the New York club, Bentley
called up few days ago and said he
was entirely satisfied with the con-
tract sent HMM fact, he was sur
prised at the size of the contract.
I'm view of the fact that Bentley
has been paid for by this club, and
further. that we entered into no con-
tract to- pay him a bonus because of
our purchasing him from the Balti-
more club, and, still further, in view
of the fact that he assured us of his
satisfaction with our terms, we will
await his signed contract. Beyond
which fact, so far as the New York
club is concerned, the matter is
closed"
Bing! Closed. No chance, All
there is left for Jack is to catch the
train for Marlin at 1905 on Monday,
February 10. Pennsylvania station.
Unless he can work on Mr.. Dunn.

Let Bentley Ponder.

TACK BENTLEY should ponder
. two things. First, the Giants
won the championship of the
world, not suffering defeat in a
single game in the final series
with the Yankees, and he was not
one of them. Second, Fuller has
been turned right back to the
San Antonio club.
Undoubtedly, if he can approach
his international League form,
Jack Bentley should prove a valu-
able addition to the New York
Club. But not until he has been
of value to the Giants will Nc
Graw know much about him.
Certainly BentIey's postponed
action in demanding from Jack
Dunn part of the money paid him
by the New York club cannot
but put him in bad odor with the
Giants. McGraw must believe
that Bentley, an experienced plav-
er, has moved to bring the Giants

was carded for a trial with
John McGraw's New York Giants,
champions of the world.
This Frisch fellow will have
to show something when Fuller

knows good ball player when
he sees one, Wen say"
Possibly McGraw did. But Nc
Graw couldn't know that the San
Antonio second baseman had no
brains under his cap. 1t took
months for that lack to appear.
Out went the Giants contracts
for 1928. One went to Fuller,
offering him the same salary he
received last year. Did that make
hit with him? Not so it might
be seen.
Back to New York went the of
