RAY SCHALk CHANGES LEAGUES

Ray Schalk, who has played with only one major league club in his F years under the big top, not only changed clubs but leagues when he signed a new contract after being released as manager of the Chicago White Sox. The once great catcher should fit in well with the system of John J. McGraw and prove a decided as- set to the New York Giants. Cracker" is a smart, resourceful baseball man and if the Giant manager is run over by taxicab as was the case this year, he will be able to place the playing af- fairs of the club in capable hands.
 Schalk's friends say his lack of success with the Sox could be charged to his easy going ways. He was too much of a good fel- low, they say, to succeed where driving force is needed to keep a club going at it's top speed. This handicap, if handicap it was, will not be felt in his new position. If discipline shall be necessary on the Giants it will not be one of the responsibilities of the first as- sistant to the manager The manager will attend to it.
