BRIGHT OUTLOOK FOR BOSTON NATIONALS — Cy Young, the Dean of Major League Pitchers. me weakness ot t: itoston .Nation al league club las' year was In the pitcher's box for the South Knd outfit did enough hard hitting and scored enough runs to assure itself a much better pcvsi'ion in the championship race than that in which it finally land ed. No great change has been made in tbe pitching staff this year, but Manager Kling has three or four real ly good men. and the new owners are only waiting to see what is really needed before opening their purse strings and going out to get it. With "Cy” Young promising to re gain some of his former strength this season, and with Tyler. McTigue. Per due. Mattern ar.d newcomers named Ikmnedy anu Brady, all promising Boston will be in fairly good shape re garding boxmen. Behind the bat Kling will have Rariden. whose arm is so good, and Gowdy. who came to the ; team late last season, and whose back stopping has been one of the features of his team's work in the south Except for various pitchers and | catchers. Manager Kling started the season with only two regular players who began the campaign with Fred ! Tenney a year ago These are Sween ey at shortstop ar.d Miller in right field. All of the other seven players came to the club in 1?11. and the pur chases and trades that were made generally were for the better. MACK’S INFIELD COST $10.85 Clever Manager Secured Shortstop Barry. Eddie Collins and Frank Baker for Car Fare. Hid any one ever tell what Connie Mack jiaid for that magnificent infield of the Athletics—the one that did so much toward winning the world's championship for that club? Of t curse not? Well. St actually cost tbe clever manager of the Philadelphia team , Just $!>.' v>. This is surprising, par-' ticularly when it is recollected that sa h a fabulous sum as was paid for O'Toole by Pittsburg ar.d the Giants willingly gave SU.t'hV fo; Mar quart. Connie is recognised as one of the shrewdest traders in the whole base Jack Barry. ball business, and if he ever went in j for swapping horses he'd have David Harum yelling for help. He is an economist whenever it is possible, and !t was possible when he secured Short- ; stop Barry. Second Baseman Collins and Third Baseman Baker. Eddie Col lins was in New York. Barry was at Holy Cross and Baker was fooling around in Reading. Pa. Mack captured this trio of baseball stars for the price of their railroad fares, and the three tickets totalled exactly $10.85. He had Davis for first when he made the deal. It was a feat that will never be duplicated. Good Bunch of Players.

POSITION OF BATTERS No Two Players Handle Them selves Aliks at Plate. Hal Chase Assumes Seeming Attitude of Indifference and Carelessness— Swings Bat With Good Deal of Snap, but Not Hard. Similar results in batting—good re sults that is. are obtained from many different styles. Good- form, poor form and no form at all get there with the bat. and each contributes its quota to the "00 division. This tiling of ••form" at the bat is largely a shib boleth based on nothing. In other sports “form" may be more or less of a necessity, at any rate certain branches of si>ort lay much stress on "form." possibly laying more on the ntce'ies of physical poise than there is occasion for. Maybe there is “form" in baseball, but If many different ex ponents of hard hitting go about get ting good results in quite different ways 33 to ad jus ment of body. feet, arm# and so forth it is not clear just where any regulation form comes in No two batters handle themselves exactly alike at the plate, of course, but methods differ so widely as to make each man's "form” his own. Stylos can be corrected to advantage; that is. faults overcome and changes made suitable to the individual, but even then there is no approach to a standard. A few cases will serve to show how different batters maintain a sway among the batting elect, the .200 class with a wide dissimilarity of method. Take Hal Chase, for instance. Many is the spectator who says he doesn't see how Chase hits the ball. Yet he does hit it. keeps on hitting it and always has been a first-class batter. The batter who steps away from the plate is notoriously a noor hitter, but while Chase doesn't step or pall away he is fidgety with his feet and sug gests that he is about to star away. Seemingly careless and indifferent, he really is watching the pitcher’s every movement as well as the whole layout, and no man can hit better with a base runner. His attitude is anything but menacing, indeed con tains a hint of timidity, which really doesn't exist, but with leose wrist and arm action he can adapt himself to any sort of a pitched ball hittable. He Hal Cbasa. used to be weak on a lew curve out side the plate, but got over that and now is a free hitter. If he wants to h:t he'll hit at anyhing. like Lajote and Wagner, and he's liable to hit anything. He doesn't swing hard In the sense of having a long sw ;ng. but swings with a good deal of snap. His eye and arm do the work without much use of the body in adding force to the drive. FLAG WON BY EIGHT LEADERS Strogg'e for Pennant in American As sedation Already Landed by Various Managers. The struggle in the American asso ciation for the championship pennant is already over according to the claims of the various managers, as given be low: Hugh Duffy: It's a cinch. Joe Cantillon: The flag is already pinned to my piano. Jack Tigfce: ileally. it s a shame tc take it. Jimmy Burke After deep thought and careful consideration I can treeiy predict that the A.

Topsy Harts?!: My Mack style o’ battle will cop for sure Mike Kelley: Ditto, only more cm phatlc. Bill Frie!: The same. Rival in Points.

Great er New York, as a starter, is wel fixed for Erst basemen, with Chase Daubert and Merkle Boston car boast of two stanch outfields in Speak er. Hooper and Lewis of the Ked Sox with Miller, Campbell and Jackson ol the Braves. Chicago has always stood high with catchers in Sullivan and Archer. And Philadelphia has the Athletics. Stanage After Record. Oscar Stanagt. king of American league backstops, has set his heart on the achievement of a high ambi tion this season. The big Californian expects to catch every inning of every game that the Tigers play from April ! 11 to October 5, and thus to establish a record never equaled nor even ap proached by a big ieague backstop. Hohnhorst Doing Well. Hornhorst. the Newport first base man, is playing elegant ball for Cleve land, and seems to have the position cinched. FEARED FOR HIS CHARACTER Disciple of Bacchus Evidently Real ized That Circumstances Looked Sad for Him. Harry was a faithful servant of a large cotton planter whom he called, after the manner of slavery days. M'Sam i Marse Sam). At stated in tervals Harry was wont to get glori ously drunk: and one night in the fall, after a day in town, the mules hitched to his wagon drew up before the lot of the plantation, with Harry pros trate and snoring in the bottom of the wagon. Here one of his numerous progeny, a boy named Job. discovered him, and unable to awaken his father, or to secure any assistance from Har ry's disgusted wife, he appealed to the planter, w ho had the mules unhitched, covered Harry with a blanket and with his own hands dragged the wagon un der a shed. Next morning Harry woke hazily and sat tip. rubbing his eyes. “Job!" he cried aloud: "hurrah here. Job!” and when Job had come under the shed. "How come I here?" Job sulkily explained how it had happened. "Did M'Sam pull me under here?" asked Harry in dismay. “Gret Lordy. I feared he t'nk I mils' be drunk!”— Kansas City Star ERUPTION COVERED BODY “Three years ago this winter I had a breaking out that covered my whole body. It itched so it seemed as if I shou'd go crazy. It first came out in little pimples on my back and spread till it covered my whole body and limbs down to my knees, also my arms down to my eiuows.
