HURT DETROITS CHANCES- If Leg Fails to Mend What Will Tigers Do for Second Gossip of Interest BasemanOther By WILLIAM Jim Delehanty former National and now with Jennings Tigers is giving the Detroit fans a mild Del strained the ligaments in hls reg last season and It that he may not bo In shape to play next summer Harry Neily of the Detroit Times has the following to say about the matter What will the Tigers do if Jim Dele hanty falls to come back Ever stop to think over the consequences of that sad calamity With Del missing whod plug tho gaping hole at second base Think- it over These same Tigers are going to have some pennant aspirations this coming season just as sure as a kind providence made little green applesi The boys will down there In Dixie pretty soon tell- ing you all about it but just mark down with the old stub pen that it Jim Dele hanty doesnt respond or if some suit- able man is not found to take his place the chances of the demon Tigers in Dll are going to be just slightly hotter than those of the festive snowball In Tophet and they aint much Not because Jim Del is a toph avy per- son of note in Tigerville but because to date there is a lamentable lack of all around competent secondbaling talent aboard the Tiger case Friends will tell you that Charlie OLeary isnt done but he is OLeary can field with the best of them but ho can no longer hit Chick Lathers can hit but is flatfooted Be- sides he makes no pretensions of being a second sacker Jay Kirk inserted his gawKish person into the fray toward the close of last season but galloped about tho infield to tho grea danger of himself and the enemy He isnt fast enough Besides the way Kirke tries to block run ners off second base and ride the demon slider into the sack he would la t just about one trip around the circuit Then the boys would commence to see Jay first and hed spond half his time picking spikes out of his shins Jays willing but lacks class So there you are In the words of tho text Something must did because Jim Dels leg may not recover and be- sides he may be hurt again any time Second who can hit and field are scarce woefully scarce as any magnate can tell you They grow not in the tall bushes neither can be had for muck coin But nevertheless and however it would pay Magnate Navin to keep his weather eye cocked in the directions hi which any stray second sackers might possibly be resting You never can tell when something will break in the trading lineLets hope that Jim Delehanty will re turn to the hid for Jim can bit around 290 all the time can run pretty well and can work that old stuff In there all the Urn Manager Hal Chase of the New York will pay strict attention to We pitchers for tho coming season that is in working them in proper turns Chase thinks the pitchers should be given as much rest as they think they need Last season Rue Fenl would not work out of turn and with the four days rest toe would enter the bex like a lion It proved a good Idea on Fords part as his record last season shows Chase said before h loft for California that ho to try and work all his pitchers the same way Chase thinks all the pitchers should be given a good rout between proM He will have Ford Vaughn Warhop Hughes Quinn PteharAand possibly one of the new men and will not work any when they are right The Yankee man ager thinks it vtU be a grand kiss to notify a pitcher a couple of days in ad vance of the Urns when he is to work something which Connie Mack The Yankee leader thinks ho has corking pitching staff to work with season HO also lies a fast team to pet behind them Wray of the St Louis Who would be a magnate and then come across with the following Minor leagues received 291360 from the big league clubs for the contracts of play- ers during 1810 nn average per club of over 15000 Is there any other business that must annually devote such a per cenge of its capitalization to depreciated machlnerp Probably tips sum entirely wipes out the annual profits of some of the more lowly teams The Browns and Cardinals each expend ted about 30w If each club gets two reliable men from the squad of recruits- It will have maintained the average Figure for yourself the cost of rebuild- ing a brokendown team And then com- pute the gray hairs gained by the man who attempts the task knowing that there are not enough capable young play- ers graduated annually in both leagues to make up a championship club Umpire Billy Evens thinks too much boosting hurts the rising young baseball player Too much praise Williams sel- dom hurts any one in any line of en- deavor who i tJ re Wagner most be worth SfiOQ an to any Pittsburg news bureau Starting in with the fall announcement that he may be traded Hans name is campaigned through interviews with all the stockholders till the December meet- Ings when the club management denies intention to trade him But still the hardy canard is not head merely altered It not traded then may be sold If not sold he may be played in a new position His winter health too is worth a cou- ple of columns and arriving at spring- it comes time for tho annual that Hans will retire Theres a denial to that trouble with his and failure to report with the rest of the team still to fall back upon So far Hans has managed to get back into the game as usual But on the strength of the tact some day he may justify one of the items the bureaucrats ramble on like the brook forever Theres a hint of a conspiracy on the part of an outraged press to use last years files during the winter and thus foil the news sellers In the meantime the winter Wagner serial of 131011 is just in its infancy Heres an unkind shot from the Now York Globe Says a Washington paper Another trial for Doc Gessler seems assured If we remember rightly the ball player was tried and found guilty in Brooklyn Chicago and Boston Fiftyseven players were reported to be on the roster of the Superbas at the present date giving ample evidence that the Brooklyn nine is going after the pennant with hammer and tongs next year permeated with plenty of new blood New York Tribune Let us hope that none of the new mem- bers will take advantage of being one of the fiftyseven and stay pickled all season Why must a bat be round Why should ancient conservatism hamper the bats- men Why not hrve a square bat do I EEl s Is I be be bailers they I j head

happening WithV a flat or square the hitters of fifty years ago could just keep on slugging till their lefs pure out The round bat came in as a life- saver for tho pitchers and a handicap to the Now that me pitchers have all the host of It why should the round bat continue to dominate the arena Think It over Every year we hear about this that or the other fellow who is lead sure to beat old Torn Jones out of his job They had the veteran fleet sacker losing his berth every spring while ho WAS with the Browns but each season Tom won out The truth be told Jones has seen twont7 youngsters try for his job and then be sent book to the minors The one rookie who has Impressed him most in all these years t Ness the Tiger recruit who tried to boat Tom to the wire last spring and will bo on deck

ever was in ray life Last summer during the final game when I was bbhind the bLot my back and legs pained me so that I could hardly walk in fact I couldnt even lace my shoes Now look at me I cant understand why I was so badly misquoted in ono of the Washington pa- pers I never sold that I wanted to get- away from the Nationals I like Mc Aleer angjsti tIle Capital I did write irTeuer when the papers were full of proposed trades for me and told him that M he saw lit to trade me I lcAI r ¬ ¬ would work just as hard for any clUb in tho league as I always did with I added that I was perfectly willing1 to so to any city in the American League with tho exception of St Louis and that I did not want to play there During the course of conversation Street informed the writer that he yesterday signed his Mil contract and forwarded- It to McAleer He said that tho terms were perfectly satisfactory and he pre- dicted a great season not only for him self but tor the club While in Hot Spring

CRACK DISTRICT HIGH SCHOOL 23 I The Business High School track team can boast of one of the best lon distance runners in the District He is Gordon W Holland son of a D Holland of 1607 Eighth street northwest and has made a name for himself in tho longdistance runs held in and around the District This is Hollands first year at the u ATHLETESNo Rhode Island Avenue School as he flunked when he first entered school and had to repeat which kept him from making the track team Holland is one of those chaps pos sossed of considerable strength and endurance He showed plenty of endurance in the Times Marathon from Laurel to Washington In that race he finished fourth of the high school boys Those who fin- ished ahead of him had a big han- dicap which he could not overcome In the Now Years 10mile run of the Y M C A Holland finished tenth among a great bunch of start ors In both races he finished Strong and maintained a good stride all of the time Holland when running on the Business track team last year finished well up among the many starters in the mile event His only difficulty is that he is used to running a greater dis- tance than one mile and cannot to the pace This ¬ ¬ ¬ j f j season Holland has not come out for the track team but joined the HOLLAND Washington CrossCountry Club He is captain of the track team of this club and they have been entered in the Baltimore CrossCountry Clubs New Year run Hi reason for not coming out for the Stenographers track team this season Is because they djd not give him the much coveted lqttor last season which he believed ho

Specialty of Doubles Play London Dec 30 R F Doherty one of Doherty brothers the famous ten j nls players hi dead He and his brother H L Doherty leading tennis ex- ports for many years To American lawn tennis players the names of the famous Dohertys had been merely a record of worfderful perform- ance until the challenge for the Dwight P Davis international cup was received in IMC Then it became known that it was the intention of the Britons to send over their peerless players Reginald F Doherty and his brother Hugh Lawrence Doherty accompanied by Dr Joshua Pirn It was the first appearance upon American courts of the Dohertys and they acquitted themselves well for rela- tively they were feeling out the Ameri- cans and the taller P Doherty took the singles n the courts of the Crescent Athletic ClUb at Bay Ridge with Dr Pim reserving the little Do for the doubles While In this country R F Doherty wrote a book about lawn tennis which he dedicated to the Grand Duchess Anna tutu of MecklenburgSchwerin He had often played with her on the courts of Kurope and it is said that there ws a strong attachment between the two Could a F Doherty won many friends while in this country for be was of a jovial nature and liked nothing better times a practical Joke or a tilt of wit He was always ailing however and his smaller brother used to amuse the crowds about the courts at the Casino by telling them how their father jot R F to play ten ida to improve his health and H L was therefore compelled to get into the game a the older brother had been so humord that ho would not play unless the younger engaged with him The Little Do also recounted how it was impossible to get Reggie put an apothecary shop The elder brother he declared was always anxious to take remedy for his real or imaginary- ills and the Little Do that their rooms wero littered with bottls of medicine and pills which R F bought- in wholesale tow Held Kvory Championship In the estimation of European players and

tennis has to offer H was only beaten when his health began to de- cline Altogether he did much to place the game as a leading sport in England and it was practically through his wise generalship and

DELEHANTYS INJURIES MAY
HURT DETROITS CHANCES-
If Leg Fails to Mend What Will Tigers Do for Second
Gossip of InterestBasemanOtherBy WILLIAM
Jim Delehanty former National andnow with Jennings Tigers is giving theDetroit fans a mild Del strainedthe ligaments in hls reg last season andIt that he may not bo In shapeto play next summer
Harry Neily of the Detroit Times hasthe following to say about the matter
What will the Tigers do if Jim Delehanty falls to come back Ever stop tothink over the consequences of that sadcalamity With Del missing whod plugtho gaping hole at second base Think-it over
These same Tigers are going to havesome pennant aspirations this comingseason just as sure as a kind providencemade little green applesi The boys will
down there In Dixie pretty soon tell-ing you all about it but just mark downwith the old stub pen that it Jim Delehanty doesnt respond or if some suit-able man is not found to take his placethe chances of the demon Tigers in Dllare going to be just slightly hotter thanthose of the festive snowball In Tophetand they aint much
Not because Jim Del is a toph avy per-son of note in Tigerville but because todate there is a lamentable lack of allaround competent secondbaling talentaboard the Tiger case Friends will tellyou that Charlie OLeary isnt done buthe is OLeary can field with the best ofthem but ho can no longer hit ChickLathers can hit but is flatfooted Be-sides he makes no pretensions of being asecond sacker Jay Kirk inserted hisgawKish person into the fray toward theclose of last season but galloped abouttho infield to tho grea danger of himselfand the enemy He isnt fast enoughBesides the way Kirke tries to block runners off second base and ride the demonslider into the sack he would la t justabout one trip around the circuit Thenthe boys would commence to see Jayfirst and hed spond half his time pickingspikes out of his shins Jays willing butlacks class
So there you are In the words of thotext Something must did becauseJim Dels leg may not recover and be-
sides he may be hurt again any timeSecond who can hit and field arescarce woefully scarce as any magnatecan tell you They grow not in the tallbushes neither can be had for muckcoin But nevertheless and however itwould pay Magnate Navin to keep hisweather eye cocked in the directions hiwhich any stray second sackers mightpossibly be resting You never can tellwhen something will break in the tradinglineLets hope that Jim Delehanty will return to the hid for Jim can bit around290 all the time can run pretty well andcan work that old stuff In there allthe Urn
Manager Hal Chase of the New Yorkwill pay strict attention to We
pitchers for tho coming season that isin working them in proper turns Chasethinks the pitchers should be given asmuch rest as they think they need Lastseason Rue Fenl would not work out ofturn and with the four days rest toe
would enter the bex like a lion Itproved a good Idea on Fords part ashis record last season shows Chase saidbefore h loft for California that ho
to try and work all his pitchersthe same way
Chase thinks all the pitchers should begiven a good rout between proM Hewill have Ford Vaughn Warhop HughesQuinn PteharAand possibly one of thenew men and will not work any whenthey are right The Yankee manager thinks it vtU be a grand kiss tonotify a pitcher a couple of days in advance of the Urns when he is to worksomething which Connie Mack
The Yankee leader thinks ho hascorking pitching staff to work withseason HO also lies a fast team to petbehind them
Wray of the St LouisWho would be a magnate and
then come across with the followingMinor leagues received 291360 from the
big league clubs for the contracts of play-ers during 1810 nn average per club ofover 15000 Is there any other businessthat must annually devote such a percenge of its capitalization todepreciated machlnerp Probably tipssum entirely wipes out the annual profitsof some of the more lowly teams
The Browns and Cardinals each expendted about 30w If each club gets tworeliable men from the squad of recruits-It will have maintained the average
Figure for yourself the cost of rebuild-ing a brokendown team And then com-pute the gray hairs gained by the manwho attempts the task knowing thatthere are not enough capable young play-ers graduated annually in both leaguesto make up a championship club
Umpire Billy Evens thinks too muchboosting hurts the rising young baseballplayer Too much praise Williams sel-dom hurts any one in any line of en-deavor who i tJ re
Wagner most be worth SfiOQ anto any Pittsburg news bureau
Starting in with the fall announcementthat he may be traded Hans name iscampaigned through interviews with allthe stockholders till the December meet-Ings when the club management
denies intention to trade himBut still the hardy canard is not head
merely altered It not traded thenmay be sold If not sold he may beplayed in a new position
His winter health too is worth a cou-ple of columns and arriving at spring-it comes time for tho annual
that Hans will retire Theres adenial to that trouble with his
and failure to report with the restof the team still to fall back upon
So far Hans has managed to get backinto the game as usual But on thestrength of the tact some day he mayjustify one of the items the bureaucratsramble on like the brook forever
Theres a hint of a conspiracy on thepart of an outraged press to use lastyears files during the winter and thusfoil the news sellers
In the meantime the winter Wagnerserial of 131011 is just in its infancy
Heres an unkind shot from the NowYork Globe Says a Washington paper
Another trial for Doc Gessler seemsassured If we remember rightly theball player was tried and found guilty inBrooklyn Chicago and Boston
Fiftyseven players were reported tobe on the roster of the Superbas at thepresent date giving ample evidence thatthe Brooklyn nine is going after thepennant with hammer and tongs nextyear permeated with plenty of newblood New York Tribune
Let us hope that none of the new mem-bers will take advantage of being oneof the fiftyseven and stay pickled allseason
Why must a bat be round Why shouldancient conservatism hamper the bats-men Why not hrve a square bat do

Every year we hear about this that orthe other fellow who is lead sure to beatold Torn Jones out of his job They hadthe veteran fleet sacker losing his berthevery spring while ho WAS with theBrowns but each season Tom won outThe truth be told Jones has seen twont7
