Hubbell, Carlson, Mitchell, Betts and John Couch Best of Hurling Staff. By DAVIS J. WALSH, ARASOTA, Fla.. March IT.—Once upon a time there was a group of worthy but alto gether mediocre young men who suddenly recog nized the fact their manager had been born white, didn't spill egg on his vest and habitually washed behind the ears. They deemed him a gentleman and a scholar, went out cf their earnest way to please him and Ijved happily ever after. This is not a bedtime story. It is the story of the poor but honest Phil lies, as outlined to the writer. The story of an almost hopelessly ineffl cient ball club that fairly bristles with hope from Arthur Fletcher, the clean earned manager, right on down to Heinie Sand, the shortstop who didn't realize there was a. lot of kidding go ing around and Insisted that bearing down was one of the things that was being done these days. “I never saw anything like It,” said Hatcher, referring to the hoys’ ambition, not the prevalent type of hearing down. "That is, outside of a college hall team. These fellows ar? simply working their heads off and (he rhfltter during a workout sounds like the ballyhoo man on the midway at Coney Island ” The Phils, ill short, may he go ing nowhere in particular, but they decline to do it quietly. Sand, by the way. is one of com paratively few 1924 relics W’ho figure to hold his job. Nelson (Chickenl lfawks, once a Yankee and later of Nashville, has replaced Holke at first base. Walter Kimmlck, ex-Red, has moved right into second base from the Vernon Coast league club. A young man, C. R. Huber by name, and gifted by nature, will play third. He is up with the Phils from Beau niont and Fletcher says he will stay. Nothing personal behind this threat, Fletcher really likes the young man However, he Is much more enamored of Kimmlok, who coulrtn t hit the size of his neckband with the Iteds. “He's the finest looking lnflelder I've seen in a long time,*' said f letch er. “He seems to he able to do any thing at second base, and I'll venture to say his hitting has improved 50 per cent. He stands up there like Hornsby now.’’ Kimmick and Huber have elimi nated Russell \Yriglitatone, except for utility measures. Iceland Durham, a semi-pro from Atlanta, III-, and I-eon ard Mel/, from Waterbury, Conn., also are striving, but no one seems to he the wiser. Horace Ford has re tired to a life of ease and refinement. There are plenty of outfielders ami some of them are good. Cy Williams will adorn renter field, leaving Harper, Mohan, Schultz and Keorge Burns, the cider, to dehate the remaining places. Fletcher alleges Burns looks belter than at any time since 1922. Hal Yordy, another \\ aterbury product, enters the equation at this juncture. He hit .341 last year and mav get downright unpleasant about it at any moment. Hal is meeting (lie ball more than half way down here. The Phils also have many pitcher*, so-called. The best of the lot are Jimmy Ring. Wilbur Hubbell. Hal Carlson, Clarence Mitchell, M alter P,etts and John Couch, veterans, and Dannta Killlnglm, back again from Beaumont; Oran O'Neal, from the same spot; Ray Pierce, from Topeka, and Frank Vlrich, from Waterbury. pierce, beinjzr a left hander, may atic , sine* the Phils are a bit shy of this breed. There are other pitchers in the squad, but what of It? “Butch ' Herlin and Jimmy Wilson will do the catching. Both are good, which makes them something of a novelty hereabouts. Municipal Golf Courses in NewYork Show Handsome Profit for Ctiy New York, March 16,—When munici pal golf Is mentioned It la generally with the understanding that It means another load which some city has to carry. While it may be a fact that public links, like parks, are rarely self sustaining and for that matter are not supposed to be. it does not necessarily Imply that the municipal course cannot be made to “pay its way.” Wherever a charge Is made for an annual permit there is no reason why the public course should be a load. Here in New York the three layouts. Van Courtland, Mosholu and Pelham, were not only self sustaining but ac tually showed a handsome profit for the city. Money taken on the three course* during 1924 totaled approximately $130,000, the amount bei^ the result of permits, looker fees and privileges such as restaurant and so on. Of this only $50,000 was expended upon up keep and maintenance, leaving the eitv some $80,000 to the good. Kecause of a provision in ths city charter money received has to be turned into the treasury and then It is up to the commissioner of parks to expend what he deems advisable on the layouts.
