GIANTS came here for mineral water baths. But they're only Retting mud baths. With feet only part of anatomy swabbed. A swabby. slushy, sloppy country, this. Rain responsible. If boys can trade spiked shoes for rubber boots they may get some practice. Only exercise obtained is via radio. Giants can thank Chamber of Commerce for that. Marlin C. of C. does things. Isn’t like St. Louis C. of C. that Just passes resolu tions to help baseballers. Marlin C. of C. boosters boosted wireless wigglers on to roof of Giants' hotel and tuned up with the infinite. ' Players in Arlington lobby lis tened in and had idleness assuaged by hearing batting averages of boll weevil league of Waco. Lynching lyric of cattle tick eradicators pepped players’ appetites.

Tempera ture of wells is 147 degrees faren hett, which Is nearly as hot as St. Louis when Giants play there. Players use sumptuous stucco sanitarium for locked room. They are prodded out to work by cruel needle” baths. Hard water and soft water are common, but this Texas fluid Is first sharp water encoun tered without prescription. Jennings and Dolan again today herded charges on to railroad tracts for section hand shuffle. Rain fall ing as accompaniment. Baseball therefore left under cover to keep dry. Horsehlde shrinks, but rookies hide can't be hurt. Not as long as three oblong meals are obtainable per diem. Wherever Giants go weather acts up trying to register hospitality harmony in bad barometer baritone. They had enow in Mar'in the other day for first time in 12 years. It was so rare citizens tried to save flakes to string into lavallieres for wives. If chill in air continues this in genious Jewelry will last as long as any thought in a Broadway chain drug store. No new starters arrived today. k Giant party still numbers 19, and not a "holdout" from dining room attendance.

Dick Haley, Creighton Forward, Is Trying to Emulate Brother, Eddie The appearance of Dick Haley at forward on the Creighton team In the last few games recall to Hill top followers the performances of his older brother, Eddie, who ended a starry four-year career In 1919. liddle was one of the best basket 6hooters that ever sported the ab breviated costume at Creighton. Along with "Chuck" Kearney, Haley piled up the score* that beat such teams as Marietta, Great Lakes, Camp Funston, Canip Dodgr, Camp Grant, Indians. Michigan Ag gies and others of similar class. Dick ha* been playing forward in place of Jimmy Lovely, who has an injured knee. When Lovely wan Injured. Creighton stock began to fall off at an alarming rate.

L Race Fans who are expecting to see a fast race in the Western league this season, in which brainy generalship stands out, as a result of the array of major league talent wIYieh will be at the head of the teams, may have a rude awakening. Passing strange though it rftby he, i it is fact and not fancy that some ! of the greatest diamond stars, sofne schooled under such baseball strate- | gists as McGraw and Connie Mack, have been managerial failures They were smart ball players, with the additional advantage of working un der smart leaders, yet their ineptitude, ! when left to their own devices, has 1 been monumental. Roger Bresnahan flopped, badly with ; the St. Louis Cardinals, and during Subsequent years has done little with his Toledo Mudhens. Barry Doyle i could not hold a managerial post, al though McGraw landed htm successive ] appointments in the International league and Southern association. Bill Dahlen failed In a brief trial at the head of the Dodgers; likewise "Moose” McCormick at Chattanooga and Mike Don!in at Jersey City. Ilerrog Boses Out. Charley Herzog didn't make the rif fle at Cincinnati, and Matty, one of his successors, lost out when he1 joined the army in 1918. This made room for Pat Moran, and thereafter Matty couldn't have got the job back if he asked for It with a repeating shotgun. Billy Gilbert, now in Denver, seems to have the job losing complex, al though he finished second with Water bury in 1922. Of th» Mack school Harry Davis just about outlived hi* welcome in single season at Cleveland. Danny Murphy left a trail of failures in his wake. I wive and Mont*- Cross attained ' indifferent success with minor league j clubs. Monte being eased out of Kan sas City Just about the time Topsy Hartsel, anothi p-of Mack's old timers, was taking the long count at Toledo Nome See Fallacy. j Few of Mack's later-day champions went in for managing, men like Col line, Mclnnes, Baker, Strunk, Schang ..and others being content, seemingly, to play ball and let the other fellow do the worrying. Jack Coombs. Chief Bender, Jack Barey and Hube Oldring were the lone ex 'options, and here again the per centage of failure was great, Coombs missing fire with the Phillies, while Bender and Oldring handled minor !e igue outfit of doubtful repute. Barry succeeded Bill Carrigan, aft t the latter had won successive "'•rids championships with the Red Sox in 1915 and 19B>, but the best Jack could show in 191? was a sec ond place club. He then enlisted In the navy and never came back to baseball. Now for Chance. He had ore of the smartest hall clubs in the history of the game at Chicago from 19dS to 191?. The result? Johnny Kvers finished third with the Cubs in 191* and was let out for reasons ohscure. He tried again in 1911. under another regime, and this ttme failed signally.
