Everything about the training
camp will be new except those old
players who have survived on the
ments of Texas in Florida. At Sara
sofa there is a perpetual radiance OF
sunshine, which is grateful to muscles
that have ribbed dry and to joints
that crate when one goes up stairs.
That is why the place has. been Sc
lected for a. training camp in 1924.
The diamond will be specially built
to accommodate the Giants. who are
not so vociferously emphatic for
specialties since they finished the asst
them in 1923 and much of the: visit
to Sarasota will be spent in tourting
the dear lady to ary to reesta blish
themselves in her good graces. If she
shows any disposition to be lured.
Theresare no outside attractions at
Sarasota, except the outside world.
and 1t Is such long way to 1t that
mono of the Giants are likely to at
tempt to break the barrier. They
will devote their time to base ball,
familiar. The Yanks have said since
1888. that they were quite surprised
to find the Giants possessed Of so lit
tie information about the game, but
then the Giants said the same thing
about them two years prior to 1923.
Much pine forest Is within the vi
cinity OF Sarasota and visible on the
way TO it. From the pine trees, tur-
pentine is extracted, a fluid which is
pungent and penetrating, and II the
Giants acquire the turpentine hahit
