MATHEWSON CALLS FOR ALL TO WATCH CHANCE No man knows or appreciates Frank Chance better than old Christy Mathew son, who so long fought on opposite tides from the ex-Peerless Leader of the Cuba Christy bids you al turn your lamps on Chance In 1214 and' points out that even now, In his period of preparation, or, as the New York -Globe puts It, "kneading a ball team but of a lot of dough." He has since May 10 won a little better than one third ot hhrvfames. Bays Matty 1 Something must be said about what Chance has done with the Yankees at this stage. Figures show he has improved the club greatly. But he had to Improve the team. There was no room for him to go back any further. Up and through May 10 Chance had won four games and lost sixteen. Since May 10 he has won slightly more than one-third of his bat tles, and thev say he smiles onpe In a -while now. The Improvement Is due to the Increased efficiency ot the Infield combined with the brace taken by the pitching Staff. It would not surprise mq to see the Yankees beat out either the Bt. Louis or Detroit teams. They are tha only two that can be passed by the New York club, to my way ot thinking, but watch Chance next year. He Is building slowly and surely and every man who gets a regular berth on the team for next year wilt know Chance base bait The former Cub can afford to experiment this season, as ha hasjiothlng to Ij-y.
