Frank Chance, the new manager of the Highlanders, should revolutionize major league base ball In Greater New York. Heretofore) the Giants have had things too much their own way, even for their own good. It la indeed a. peculiar city In this gener ation of mad sport that will not lavish Ha very tenderest affections upon a win ning major league rinse ball team. Rut New York always haa been and always will bu an eccentrlo proposition. It has returned tribute to Its Idolized aiants, but not In the same meahure that It should. For tho somewhat constrained enthusi asm the IIII1 tribe has been to blame. Farreira forces have been doing business In this bnllwlck for ten seasons and In all that time figured seriously In the final reckoning but twice. Under Clark drfflih both In 1904 and In 1906 the Kll ties were just barely nosed out by Ronton and Chicago, respectively. In 1904 the brave fight was overshadowed because the Polo groundera won the pennant. The' disappointment In 1906 was doubly' keen because In that year the Giants Proved the greatest disappointment of ..... . .... . .. history and finished fourth when every one expected them to cop a third straight flag. fllantti JVeed Cnniuetltlnn. Every other year, without exception, the Giants laid It away over their rivals. It la true that the two local teams fin 1! . Giants ished second In either league In 1910.

Something to Work For. Chance will have the greatest Incentive : or hln life to build up a championship array on tho ghost of Farroll's ranic tail I endem'. So much Is expected of him thftt hln lot may be a bit hnrd at first. It must be borne In mind that tile l'eerlers leader Ih coming to n strange company, i It will take him some time to Kit Ills bearings, nut no one doubts hlH ability ami everyone Is aa confident as Chano ' himself that eventually the Highlanders will be us much a factor as I ho long established and deserving Giants. To hasten the day will be the aim of "Husk" Chance. For when the tlmo. conies that New York can boast two really great teams just so much quicker will open nn avenue for really great Bport'nc cle.sslcr.. There Is no reason under such circumstances why the local rivals should not meet each spring In un exhibition series for the championship of New York. Such games would prove far more entertaining and beneficial tliun barnstorming through the "brush." Chnvles If. Ebbeta, too. Is likely to benefit by the coming of Chance. Charllu has a new ball park, which cost him n whole "lot of money. He will have to Improve hln club'M standing at once un less he wishes a white elephant on hln hands. On paper his team Is of first division possibilities. But year after year It has always proven a bitter disappoint ment. Tho trouble is much the same as thut which hampered Frank Farroll too much' experimenting with managerial talent. Let Chance give Fnrrell a winner and Rbbets Is likely to whip Into line ready to pay the price and the salary to a reul leader. Does Jumbo Stiehm Need Help In the Work of Coaching? (Continued from Page One.) graduates and alumni have submitted to this condition. They have had their hopes raised to the highest power for the Minnesota struggle, thinking thl. fall would bring a break In the winning cf tho Gophers; but no change haa come. Each fall It has been a repetition of last year, exhibition. Nebraska alway. play. well and always lo.es. Coach "Williams of Minnesota always looks for a hard gnme and always pro- pnres his men for one of the stlffest fights on bis schedule. Minnesota rooters nlwaya know there will be a struggle and tho Cornhuskera draw larger crowds of Qopher. than any team outside the Chi cago conference. It I. the Cornhusker coaching system, and nothing else, that May Play at I CINCINNATI CRITICISES TINKER IN SELECTIONS CINCINNATI,' O., Jan. 25 Cincinnati Jung have already be gun to direct criticism, at Manager Jot Tinker for signing Miner Brown and rfor tryngto get Johnny Kllng. They say Hint Tinker ought to 109k uround for some young players. In stead of signing a collection of bygone stars. They .ay -that Tinker Is .Imply signing hia old team mxtn as -V mutter of friendship and sentiment Like Tinker. Manager FrankChace I ' ' i ' of tho Yankees thnk. as he over had. and the Injury to hU knee is only a temporary uffolr As for Johnny Kllng, It is not likely that he will ever play In the major leagues again. Arthur Shafer. who will succeed Flet cher at short field for the Giants next season. The most significant change In the Giant's lineup fur the coming season made by Manager McGraw thus far Is the putting of Arthur Shafer lr-tlie place of Fletcher nt short. The base ball experts who have been watching 8hafer say that he will prove to be one of the season's stars. The picture on the left shows the budding Mar Just after he had swung at the ball. He la thought to possess the keenest batting eye of any player In the league. The -other view shows Shafer waiting at the plate. He Is one of the best little waiters- In the business. Getting the pitcher In a hole Is his favorite diversion. results In the loss of games every fall. The advisability of a plan by which Stiehm will still bo In supreme control, with five or six assistants and an ad visory board of kindly Inclined graduate plnyorn cannot be questioned. It Is not only needed: It must come. Nerbaska has gone too long already under Its suicidal policy ot trying to make one man fight foe. that are drilled by squads of coaches. Iast fall was a fortunate one for the Cornhuskers. Coach Stiehm did abso lutely all that one man could do: the famous Bopth, older ln yeara and In ex perience than "Jumbo," could have ac complished little more ln getting tho team Into winning shnpe. Three of the games were won by the closest fights Missouri, Kansas nnd Oklahoma. In none of them did the Cornhuskers show much superiority In general play. They did prove that their general policy of at tack and defense was better. They did not execute the plays properly. It was not the fault of Stiehm; It was the fault of tlio coaching system that placed all the burden on one man's shoulders, and did not give liltn time to teach each player all he should have known. What Mast Come. For a better eleven next fall for ono that will whip Minnesota sound revl islon of the Cornhusker coaching system Proust come. I.et Coach Btlehm stay nt tho head of the team (he deserves tho position) nnd give the tutor five asMstants and a board of five advisers who shall not lnterfor with the general coaching plan, but who will lend their good ef. forts to attaining the ends at -which Coach' Stiehm alms. The Omaha alumni of the University of Nebraska will give all the assistance they can to effect the change. They will even furnish some of the assistants for. the coach, and will give of their time and money to supplant tho present de plorable poller with one that will still be up to the highest standard of purity and yet be efficacious in getting results that should came from teams -which can be moulded from the material Nebraska possesses.

Who's going to capture first place In the base ball sal ary league? That question appears to be the domi nant one Just now. The other day when Frank Farrell engaged Frank Chance as manager of the Yankees nt a yearly wage estimated to be p),000 the vexing problem seemed to hare been solved. But the Irrepressible "Charlie" Murphy of the Cubs, haa put his rotund figure on the base ball horizon as a disputant of the Chance, assertion. Murphy says that "Johnny" Evens is going to be the kingpin salary artlBt. "Little Johnny" Is going to get so much money that Murphy doesn't really like to tell any one Just whnt the amount If. Only one string Is tied to Ever'a an nual stipend. That Is, the Cubs must finish In first, second or third place. With that condition carried out, he will receive ln addition to a stipulated amount a percentage of the earnings nnd a bonus, tho latter depending on what position tho club occupies at the end of the season. High managerial salaries promise to be an Important feature of the base ball season. The winter haa brought about many Important changes ln the base ball flrmanent, with six of the major league clubs being placed In the hands of new leaders. Discontent ln many cities has compelled changes in the management ot the clubs, and In' tho general shifting about the men selected to assume charge havo been In position to dictate terms under which they would attach signa tures to contracts.

The present plan appears to be to Instnl clubs ln Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Indianapolis. Milwaukee, St. Louis nnd Chicago.

The new organization would only bo entering territory occupied by the National league, American league, In ternational league and American associ ation.
