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.
