Sam Crane Predicts Shakeup in National League Champions Next Season M’fiRAW TO STRENGTHEN GIANTS’ WEAK SPOTS By Sam Crane. NEW YORK, Oct. 23.—Even if the recent world’s series brought little more than re gret and disappointment to the friends and backers of the Giants, it has served one purpose that should result in the strengthening of the team for next year, or at ’.east to have the effort made to bolster up the weak points In the regular line-up that were so plain ( and painfully evident while the series was in progress. Errors lost the Giants the series. It was poor fielding that caused the club to drop from a slxteen-game lead to a paltry advantage of four games and a half and thereby put ng them in such grave danger during the National league season that the players themselves were frightened and their friends thrown into conniption fits. Giants Finally Recovered. The team was enabled to recover much of their lost lead, but It must be acknowledged that if the Chi ago Cubs had not slumped as they did, just at the time the Giants WORLD SERIES HEROES CHARLEY HERZOG—No. 3 By Harry Glaser. DOWN at Ridgely, Md., Char lev Herzog is trying hard to blot from his memory certain painful incidents of last week that cost the Giants a world's championship. Not that the brilliant third base >n.m need look with anything but pride upon the role he played, for It - work in the series stood out as by far the best of any indi vidual, with the possible exception of certain pitchers. Probably for this reason none was more cha grined over the defeat. No infielder of either team played such a splendid or consistent game, and at bat even the renowned Speaker was left far behind. There was just one player who took part In all eight games of the series who had a batting average of .400. and this belonged to the Giant stair. He made an even dozen hits, among them four doubles and a triple, which netted him a total of eight een bases. His fielding was per fect. Herzog Outclassed Gardner. Ry contrast. Larry Gardner, rated as the foremost third sacker in the American league, was made to look like a bush league player, for Herzog outclassed his Boston rival on all sides. In the volumi nous comparisons of the players made before the series few of the experts rated the Giant star as the equal of Gardner. Today there are few who do not admit that he is superior to the Red Sox infielder, Herzog’s worth as a ball player is not to be judged solely upon his 'world’s series performance. This merely served to bring him more prominently before the public. He has proved his value long since, and that Manager McGraw recog nized his ability may be taken for granted when it is recalled that he signed him up for a term of three years at the time he was repur chased from Boston. That was ibout mid-season last year, and Herzog did much toward gaining the Giants a championship when he replaced the veteran Arthur Dev lin. He clouted like a demon from the very start. Devlin in his palmiest days did not play a stronger, faster defensive game than the Maryland farmer. This was the fifth season that Herzog put in as a major leaguer. He began playing professional ball WHEN OTHERS FAIL TO BENEFIT YOU, CONSULT Dr. Holbrook Q u a I i flcations: Graduate and post graduate of seven of the best col leges in the I’nlted States; Special courses in Europe Reference: Several hundreds of cured and grateful pa tients in Southern states.

D., The South’s Leading Specialist were in their hardest straits and with little prospect of regaining their st! ide, the New Yorkers would have been pushed mu eh harder than they were and might possibly have lost out. and not been able to contest in the sensational series that is now baseball history. It was a game struggle, fought to the last ditch and every player who participated in it is entitled to great credit, some, of course, more than others, but the series being as close as it was only served to emphasize the fact, now that all the glamor is off and we can look at the games with cool and delib erate judgment, that there are sev eral holes in the team that must be plugged up. That will mean new players in the new line-up and they are now on the list of engaged men or who were on the pay roll of the New York club when the season of 1912 was finished so gloriously or in gloriouslv. as one wants to con sider It. Manager McGraw must be fully awar“ of the situation, and was. too, all the season when the poor Big League Record of Giants’ Third Baseman Year. Chib. Pos.

Md., 27 years ago, on July 9, 1885, he spent the greater part of his life around that city Contrary to general belief, Herzog is not a Hebrew, but of German extraction. After attending the University of Maryland, where he took a perma nent part in baseball, Herzog or ganized a ball team which he man aged successfully. One of the play ers on his team was J. Franklin Baker, the Athletics’ star, who was also a resident of Ridgely, Md., at that time. From Ridgely, Herzog went to 5 ork in the Tri-Sate league and established a fine record as an in fielder and hitter. Played in Famous Game. McGraw heard of him and pur chased the youngster in 1908. When Doyle was injured that season Her zog played second base and took part In the famous play-off game against the Cubs. in 1910 he was traded to Boston for Beals Becker. Then Herzog be gan to improve in leaps and bounds to such an extent that the Giants’ leader regretted having let him go Early in 1911 trouble developed among Manage, Tenney and the Boston players, during which Her zog quit the team after being fined S3OO for alleged indifferent play ing. This induced the Boston club to look favorably upon a chance to trade him. McGraw finally secured him at the expense of Al Bridwell and Hank Gowdy. YOUNG CUBAN PLAYERS SOUGHT BY GRIFFITH WASHINGTON, Oct. 23. Jacinto Cal vo. the young Cuban outfielder, recom mended to Manager Griffith by a Havana sporting writer, is expected to sign a Washington contract. The contract was sent to Havana, where the lad is playing with the Aimendares against the New Or leans club, of the Southern league, and the promising youngster will hardly make any protest against the size of the emolu ment offered. Calvo Is a mere stripling, but his per formance against New Orleans Is tickling Manager Griffith. In the first game against the Pelicans Calvo pounded out three safe blngies. and sttoed a pretty turn of speed on the bases, according to a paper sent to the Nationals' office here. "The boy is just a beginner." said Man ager Griffith, "but I am given to under stand that he has a great future He is young enough to teach the tricks of the game, and if he follows ms adx'ice and shows he can hit that pill I may have him playing regularly next season. He Is only 18 years old, and has plenty of time In which to develop Hall Caine’s Masterly Novel “The Woman Thou Gavest Me” Thig wries is the most talked of story evf the season.

OCTOBER 23. 1912 fielding of the team was adding many and many extra gray hairs to his already grizzled "thatch.” Looked For Errorless Game. "When will my team ever play an etrorless game?" was the plain tive cry very often during the sea son. "If they do, then they will win out hands down, but 1 have about given up all hopes of their being able to do so.” But with all the grit and deter mination that is so characteristic of him in sticking to his players, he made few changes, preferring to l p t them work out their own salva tion. He did shift Devore occa sionally. but had to return to that plucky little speedboy when con tests of unusual importance need ed pure game qualities to be shown. Errors, and bad ones, often re peated. lost the world's pennant, and that they would was presaged dining the National league season. It was the natural conclusion to arrive at. McGraw was fearful of it. and so were his players. That lack of confidence was also imbued in those who had been with the Giants the entire season and seen them perform in ail their games. »nd the players who were most erratic In their fielding were the ones who stumbled, fumbled, muff ed and fell when the big games were on There are players who are so constituted mentally that they can not stand the stiain imposed by as strenuous and important a series of contests such as world’s champion ship and other post-season games produce. Such players w ith lighter mental caliber are placed at a big disad vantage below their more steady minded players. Tt may not be that the former are shy on gameness, but it has been proven conclusively in the most recent series that they failed to come to the front and make good when the pinch occa sions arose. And such players will neither have the confidence In themselves henceforth nor will their fellow players have it for them. In fact, they have been tried and found wanting, and not for the first time, either. It is all well and looks good for players to be magnanimous for the faults of others, but at times that feeling Is forced and the joke not followed by a laugh or a smile that is real. Crane Looks For Deals. I look for Manager McGraw to make some deals, either by trade or purchase, for players during the winter. Sentiment does not figure a whole lot with the Giants’ leader when he thinks any of his players have lost their usefulness to his club. He does not usually carry a player beyond 33 years of age. This was illustrated this past season, when he allowed Devlin to go to Boston. After Devlin had joined the Braves he said to me: ”1 knew I would not last the sea son out with McGraw. I was 33 years old, and McGraw quit pLky ing when he was that age. He seems to think no player, after he reaches 33. is speedy enough for the Giants, and it is considered an unwritten law among the Giants for them to have their grips packed and ready to depart for other fields when old 33 years bobs up. It may be only a. coincidence that McGraw has let so many of his players go when they had just reached that age, but we don’t think so. We think the plan is formed in his mind. Anyhow, it has never failed to be the canning age for us.” Now. who among the Giants has reached the vulnerable point of their baseball career as Giants?

Florida's football team is now ac tively at work preparing for a hard struggle witli Georgia Tech in this city next Saturday. Last Saturday the "Alligators" won from the strong University of South Carolina eleven, and the boys are now feeling able to take the measures of their remaining opponents. The Carolina game showed that the team had real football strength. No "holes" were found in it and. with con stant practice. Coach Pyle believes his men will be in fine condition for the coming battle with the Georgia boys. The players were used up a bit in the game Saturday, but none was hurt. The hospital list is nil. The regulars are all in trim and will come to Jacksonville with tht* intention of taking the meas ures of their opponents. The forward pass is being used con siderably by/the Florida team this sea son. Good gains are generally made by them with this play. They are also good at line bucking—some of their best gains last Saturday were made through the strong Carolina line. A speedy set of backs, with some good subs, combine to make the outfit look like a w’lnner. Team Play Is Good. The team work so far this season has been good. While there are a number of stars on the eleven, they have not been guilty of breaking up team work to make grandstand plays. This is one point very much in favor of the boys. Their "machine" is a good one and Is in good running order. The strength of the Tech eleven is not being underestimated. The scrubs are being pounded unmercifully every night as they line up in supposed Tech form ations. Quarter Back Buie handies his team with consummate skill. He is a good field general. He has a good head and does not try to work one good man to death because he is a good ground gainer. In the games played this season, the team has proved to be as dangerous in the fourth quarter as in the first. With the score against the Floridians, they never quit fighting. Such was the case in the last game with the boys from South Carolina. The game was lost un til the last eight minutes of play, when a touchdown and goal were added to Florida’s end of the score. Pounds. "Dummy” Taylor. Buie. Mc- Cullouch and Tenny are the men whc are liable to be stars in the game with the Tech men. They are old heads and are all good players. While they real ize the necessity of team work, they are always found ready to accept all chances in which all of them are liable to make star plays. Eugenie Blair in “Mad ame X’’ at Lyric.
