Quitting of County Series
for City League Seen
As Mistake.
By TAD
By r. ID. THOMAS.

To the possible, perhaps doubtful,
end that a few more sheckels Will
clatter in the strong box, the
Arlington Athletic Club proposes to
pass up the Northern Virginia
championship sandlot series and
play ball in the new Independent
League Of Washington.
When the Arlington club entered
the Northern Virginia series. Its
membership totaled about twelve.
Before the series was done the club
had more than one hundred mem
bers.
Before the series, Arlington's ball
team was little heard about. Ar.
lington won the championship and
therefore today is a wellk1own
club.
In short, the Northern Virginia
series accomplished much for the
benefit of the Arlington A. G.
More than this by far, it put sand
lot baseball forty leaps ahead IN
Northern Virginia
Mickey johnson, usually ,spokes'
man for the Cherrydale club, says
IF the teams of Arlington county
do net reorganize the series, Cher.
rydale will play independent ball
rather than join an intercounty
league Of Arlington county and
Prince Georges county, Md"
In its quest for coin, Arlington
first proposed the intercounty
league. It looked good to some at
first, but after careful examination,
II was turned down by all concern
ed excepting Arlington.
BY helping sandlot baseball IN
Arlington county, the Arlington A.
G. would do most to help Itself
Let the Northern Virginia series
die, and sandlot interest In the
territory affected will dwindle.
without the interest created by
the series Of 1923, the Arlington
club today would have a minor
standing in the sandlot field.
The team Arlington won a North.
Virginia championship with would
be eaten up by the clubs that are
in the Independent League Airing
ton plans to enter. To be q real
contender for the Independent
League title, Arlington would need
sign a number Of star ballplayers.
which would cost the club a sweet
portion Of its receipts.
Arlington can drop out of the
Northern Virginia series without
Gripping the series. Clarendon
did itself more harm than 1t did
the series by remaining independ.
ent last year, and Clarendon was q
far more important ball team than

pitching.
A squint-eyed man can tell at a
glance on looking over the Giants
aggregation that 1t Is great ball
club If its pitching can stand up.
It Is Mr.. Dryers duty to see that
it does stand up.
In the days that Cap" Arson
bossed the Cubs and Buck" Ewing
managed the Cincinnati Reds, there
were few better pitchers in the
National League than Frank Dwyer.
He went direct to the old Chicago
Colts from Hobart College, being
one Of the first collegians to make
baseball his business. He was
Mr.. Dryer Is now attempting to
teach the Giant pitching recruits
some of the tricks that he practiced
on the National League batters in
the nineties.
Yes, sir, there is some mighty
fine pitching talent here" said
Dryer. "McGraw needs pitchers,
and I think he is going to get
what he is looking for. OF course,
some of the boys he has down here
are crude and won't do. But he
has a lot Of splendid prospects.
Dean, the Louisville fellow, has
impressed me most. That chap is
a real pitcher, think. He stands
out among the other recruits not
because he cost more money, but
by the ease and style Of his delivery.
He Is natural pitcher and smart,
and it takes the smart ones to win
games"
Dwyer also has some nice things
to say about Baldwin, the Newark
acquisition. Baldwin, too, has
shown himself to be capable
youngster, according to the pitching
coach. lad who is eager to learn
and quick to adopt suggestions made
Dy the older men In camp. He also
had some nice things to say about
Joel Leete, the left-handed youngster
from Amherst, who throws a mean
curve when he let's 1t out.
Geneva's foremost figure in the
sporting world also ventured the
suggestion that McGraw's veteran
twirlers will show more this Scason
than they did in 1923.
Take that fellow Bentley" said
the coach. did you ever see an
athlete in better physical condition?
Bentley is twenty pounds lighter

THIS SHOULD BE
. LESSON FOR
WISE GUYS

The probable return of Mique Con-
gales to the National League recalls
to mind the reason he was dropped
by the Giants in 1920
Along about midseason, so the
story goes, somebody asked Gonzales
what team he thought was going 10
win the pennant.
Brooklyn, Of course" Mique is re.
ported as saying.
McGraw, tits said, overheard the
remark and Immediately benched
Gonzales. lawn J. never used him
again except when he was compelled
to that year.
Yet Mique was right and McGraw
promptly canned him, tits said, for
calling the turn.
