AVALON, Catalina Island, Calf.
March THE oldest player on the
Chicago National League base ball
team, in Spring training here. is Mike
Gonzales, catcher. Mike has seen the
moon come and go for 35 years and
as he never has worried one iota dur.
ing that period he reckons himself
as approaching 20. There Is not a
pitcher on the Cubs who Is 80 years
Of age, and Joe Mccarthy, Irish boss
of this Chicago club, counts this as
one Of the primary factors of the
strength Of his team.
Joe is somewhat at variance in his
modern pitching ideas from the old
timers. He varies from them in many
other things. He Is successful in what
he does, so 1t is possible that he has
new and valuable philosophy re-
lating to the process of winning ball
games.
II know" said Joe. as he watched
the Pacific lazily roll over and back
again, that managers think old and
experienced pitchers are the best to
have. 1t has been argued ever since
can remember much about base ball
that to win a pennant a manager
must have at least two veteran
pitchers and would not find 1t a
hardship IL he had three.
Lacks Veteran Hurlers.
Good philosophy and good theory
il you can find two or three veterans
to carry you along, but find 'em.
They aren't with us. The veterans
that we have to my mind are no bet
ter than the young fellows we have
l don't mean the Chicago club. espe-
cially, but / mean any ball club. The
dearth of veteran pitching material
is greater than the dearth of 400 bat
ters, and the veterans that do pitch
are about $3.50.
with that SO, why should I. or any
manager, cultivate. veteran pitching
material with it's uncertainty wher
you can get $3.50 winners from the
youngsters? IL they are in any way
promising they will be playing ball for
me five, six or seven years from
now
McCarthys convictions on this score
are at variance with those OF another
manager in the National League
whose delight has been to gather
three or four pitchers with experience
and ripeness and try to win pennants
In these recent years when the
shortage OF experienced pitchers has
been so evident that some managers
have experimental themselves into
