GIANTS PLACE
 HIGH HOPES ON
 INTER. LEACUER
Johnny Mccarthy Expect ed to Fit Into Shoes of
 Terry at First Base

the veteran and fledgling rockies the majors drew from the Interna- tional league for 1897 trials, the New York Giants captured the prize,-they hope.
 He is 24-year-old Johnny McCar- thy, obtained from the New York Yankees Newark farm as a re- placement for Manager Bill Terry at first base. Only light clubbing stands between Mccarthy and ma jor league success, for he's said to be pretty fancy afield-and inn proving against southpaw flinging. Johnny bats and filings from the port side.
 Mccarthy is rated as better all- arounder than First-sacker Leslie Powers whom the Giants bought from Baltimore, along with South paw pitcher Cliff Melton, reported improved since tried by the New York Yankees in 1885
 Besides Mccarthy and the Balti- more pair, the International gifts to the National league stack up like this:
 Braves took Pitcher Bill Harris, Outfielder Frank McGowan and First-baseman Elburt Fletcher from champion Buffalo Return trips to the big-time for all three Harris pitched a pair of no-hitters one by day and one at night. :. McGowarr was one of the staAdout outfielders and hitters of the league.
 Cincinnati got Shortstop Robert Miller and Pitcher Jake Mooty from Toronto and Outfielders John Rothrock and Phil Weintraub from Rochester. . t. Weintraub, who first based for Rochester, was the de- mon Sunday hitter" of the IL.
