Bringing Up Father
Copyrlfbt. 1911. Internatlonal Nfw* Arrrlc*
By George McManus
By Otto C. Ploto.
W HILE viewing with regret the
poor showing that such popu
lar men as Chance and Tinker
are making this year we often won
der whether there Is a distinction be
tween a great manager and a builder
"f a successful baseball team. There
must be something to this contention
nr else why does It constantly flash
across our think pan?
There is no one will deny but that
I'rank Chance Is a great manager;
* ' : hat be can get mot ot the same
” < n under bis charge than any other
one individual out of a hundred that
try. Yet he's an absolute failure to
date with New York. Why? Because
he did not build the team he com
mands. Scouts were sent abroad to
bring home the recruits, and from
present observation the scouts failed
in their missions. Added to this
,the poor luck that has greeted the
'earn for the past four or five years.
To play a whole series against all
the clubs in the Eastern division of
the American League and.not win a
single game—well, we are at a loss
to explain it. Yet that's the record,
and that's the verdict that will go down
against the Peerless Leader In future
discussions.
* * ft
TV/TIND. no one expected Chance lo
make good in a single season, nor
in two or three seasons for that mat
ter.- But we surjely looked for bet
ter results than have been brought
to date. A lot of wooden Indians, fre
quently wen as advertisements in
front of cigar stores, could have ac
complished no less.
It’s now up to Chance to demon
strate to us that he can •’build” as
well as manage. He has proven to
us beyond a doubt that the manage
rial abilities are his—won in actual
contest time and time again in the
severest kind of battle. With mana
ger. he must show that he is really
all his friends have claimed for him.
He must weed out the dead and re
place them with live and winning ma
terial. When he has done this we’ll
shout bravo!
* * •
r^HANCE did not build up the great
^ machine that won four National
League and two world’s champion
ships. He was part of the machine
before it was handed over to him,
but the late Frank Selee gathered
Tinker, Kling. Schulte. Evers, Hof-
man and the rest of the bunch that
stood so gallantly by the P. L. in all
those now historic struggles. Selee
had to step down and out owing to
poor health, and Chance stepped in
and developed the heirlooms that his
manager left to him.
True, Chance made some advan
tageous trades that still further
« strengthened his machine. But the
men traded were all gathered by Se
l p e and proved such alluring bait to
the other clubs that the swap which
brought Brown, Shekard and others
into the Cub fold was comparatively
eaf-y. So without taking any credit
away from Chance, all he had to do
in this instance was to keep the well-
organized machine moving. This he
did with wonderful results. He suc
ceeded where another man might have
failed.
* * *
TAKE Clark Griffith, of the Was»h-
1 ington team. He is one of the
best managers in the business. Time
and time again he has proved this.
But we ask. is he a builder? To a
certain extent we believe him to be.
He surely shbwed such ability when
he organized the Highlanders for
their first appearance in the Ameri
can League. Things, however, were
Vat her easy at that time because
the younger league was grabbing all
the stars from the National. When
he got Chesbro he had pretty nearly
a team.
He failed to make much of a show
with Cincinnati. (But so do all the
others.) In Washington last year as
well as this he is* doing wonders. But
in figuring matters remember that
it was Cantillon who gbt Johnson
to come there, and the other half of
the team was helped along by Jim
my McAleer. Clark, however, is get
ting every ounce out of them.
MANDOT 10-T0-8 CHOICE
OVER ANDERSON TO-NIGHT
LOS ANGELES, May 20.—The expe
dience and ring generalship of Joe Man-
dot. the New Orleans lightweight, has
caused a flood of money to be offered by
his admirers at the eleventh hour, and
Just twelve hours before he is due to
enter the Vernon ring to box Bud An
derson, of Medford. Oreg., the Southern
bov is a favorite at odds of 10 to 8.
With their training concluded in the
best of shape, both boys are in per
fect condition and confident, Mandot
feeling sure he will redeem himself, and
Anderson certain that he will add an
other knock-out to his record.

S AN FRANCISCO, May 20.—In
James W. Coffroth’s Eighth Ave
nue arena to-night a couple of
huskies will have designs on the
world’s championship. They are
heavyweights and their names are
Jess Willard and Gunboat Smith.
Did they belong in any other class
there would be haggling and maybe
claiming of forfeit if one man scaled
a few ounces over a stipulated notch.
As it is, Willard will have fifty pounds
the better of the poundage and Smith
will have no redress, for the laws
of the ring, so far as they bear upon
avoirdupois, do • not hold “north of
’58.” Smith has been made favorite,
the price this morning being 10 to
8. This is in pursuance of San Fran
cisco’s policy of pinning its faith to
the man it knows when a local fight
er and a stranger become embroiled.
Just what the odds would be if
the heavies met in the East is not
known, but it is doubtful if Smith
would be installed first choice. The
Gunner's best performance there was
his victory over Bombardier Welis,
and Willard outboxed Luther McCar
ty, who beat A1 Palzer, who beat
Bombardier Wells.
Both Willard and Smith are well
thought of around New York and axe
regarded as fit candidates for the
world’s championship. Willard lacks
the experience of Smith, and this is
one reason of the San Francisco fight
followers’ liking for Smith. Gunboat's
vaunted knockout punch is another.
It may be that Willard also possesses
a knockout punch, but San Francisco
has no knowledge of the fact. He
certainly has not been advertised in
that direction to the same extent as
Smith.
CHARLIE WHITE STOPS
THOMAS IN TWO ROUNDS
NEW ORLEANS, May 20.—Charlie
White stopped Joe Thomas in the
second round of their 10-round bout
last night. The local boy was an
easy victim for the Chicago star,
Thomas was knocked down for the
count of nine in the first round, after
going down two other times, the bell
saving him the last time.
At the opening of the second.
Thomas appeared to have regained
his strength, but a few well directed
rights and lefts put him groggy
again, and after about one minute of
the second round the referee, Dick
Burke, raised White’s hand and mo
tioned Thomas to his corner,
MURPHY OFFERS $25,000
FOR RIXEY OR ALEXANDER
CHICAGO, May 20.—Charles W
Murphy, president of the Chicago
Cubs, to-day is on his way East to
join the team.
It was said at Cub headquarters
that he will stop oft en route and try
to close a deal whereby three Cubs
will be traded for a pitcher, said slab
»tar to be the "Walter Johnson of
the National League,'' Murphy Is
desperate in his desire to bring his

Mathewson As Savior of Giants
G O © © O 0 •©
Keeps Champs in Race-Marquard
White City Park Now Open
By Rube Marquard
(Holder of the World’s Record of
Nineteen Consecutive Victories.)
S O many startling surprises have
developed in the first month of
the major league campaigns it is
hard to figure out where it will all
end.
By the looks of things anything is
liable to happen. The "dope” has
been upset in so many surprising
manners that it seems after all as if
there is some “jinx” attached to the
magic “13” of this year of grace.
However, there are enough beacons
shining through the gloom of uncer
tainty to re-establish faith in ability
as opposed to superstition.
We do not have to travel very far
just now to find the one real beacon
of Giant hope. His name is Christy
Mathewson. His work alone Is
enough to break all the charms of
“jinxes” and “hoodoos," for he arises
in the thirteenth year of his career
as a Giant and a major league per
former to a height of perfection that
in any other pitcher would be re
garded ns miraculous. Mathewson
has been the great bulwark of the
Giant pitching staff so long that the
pubfic has come to regard his won
derful brilliancy as a matter of com
mon habit.
To none other than the great nlas
ter of pitching science may New York
contratulate Itself upon being as well
to the front in the 1913 National
League race. So far he has been
the only reliable pitching asset of the
veteran talent. Matty is confident
that this will be his greatest year, and
1 share the belief with him.
Here is a pitcher who very wisely
has conserved every* ounce of vital
ity. By the use of his head he has
been able to shin*} year after year
with the very feast possible strain
to his arm. And I believe that Chris
ty Mathewson will live to as ripe an
age of efficiency as did the vener
able Cy Young To-day Mathewson
is better than he has ever been be
fore.
Illness Sets “Rube” Back.
Mathewson has had to shoulder thf
great bulk of the pitching responsi
bility so far this season, but I think
there will be plenty of help for him
from now on. My chief regret for
Mathewson, McGraw and all my fel
low players has been that I am not
capable of doing my share toward
making it three pennants in a row*.
I offer no excuses, for I know in my
heart that very soon 1 will be back
into my proper stride. I was just
hitting my pace when an attack of
tonsilitis set me back.
"By the time I am on my feet once
more—and that will not be very long.
1 can tell you—the Giants should he
as well provided with pitching ma
terial as any club could desire. I
know from the condition in which
the men returned from Texas that
a week or two of summer weather
would put all our pitchers in first-
class shape.
Our club is not the only one that
has suffered in this respect. Pitch
ing, as a general rule, has been
very unsatisfaotory so far in both
leagues. With very few exceptions—
principally Mathewson. Johnson and
Plank—pitchers usually the most re
liable have been most unsteady. By
every law of* precedent this condi
tion should not obtain when the vet
eran pitchers finally round into
shape.
Having seen all our rivals but St.
Louis, I am more convinced than ever
that the Giants should win the pen
nant. It will not be the runaway that
most of our supporters presumed be
fore the start. It will mean a good,
steady fight through the whole course,
a condition that should make the cur
rent season a most memorable one.
League Strength in East.
‘The strength of the National
League, as evidenced in the first
month's play, centered in the Fast,
just as it does in the American. Phil
adelphia and Brooklyn, rather than
Pittsburg and Uhicago. seem bent
upon most forcibly debating the
championship with the Giants.
With Hans Wagner back in the
game the Pirates are almost bound
to greatly improve their standing.
Fred Clarke’s pitchers have be^nVow-
fully off color all along, and this
condition has resulted in a very se
vere handicap for his team. Pitts
burg will undoubtedly get back
among the leaders, but has so much
ground to make up that it can not now
be seriously regarded as a challenger
of the Giants.
Chicago has a very good looking
club outside its pitchers, but is so
weak in box material that it can not
Lope, under present conditions, to
cope with any one of the three
strongest Eastern clubs.
Cincinnati is in the same boat as
Chicago. The Indian. Johnston, has
been Tinker's only reliable pitcher so
far. Yet there is fair strength in the
Reds’ staff if the 'men ever get to
working properly. Chicago can not
muster as much twirling strength as
Cincinnati, though Evers’ team in all
other Lespects is superior.
A very pleasing circumstance to the
(iiants is the manner in which George
Stallings has resurrected the Boston
Braves. Out of practically nothing
he has shaped a collection capable of
giving the best a very stiff argument.
This will prove of great help to the
Giants, no doubt, as Boston will be
able to stop New York’s rivals once
In a while. Heretofore Boston al
ways managed somehow to make
things interesting enough for New
York, but never did a great deal
against Pittsburg and Chicago.
Giants in Lead Soon.
I think that inside of a very short
time the Giants will step out into the
lead, and once there our club will
never be dislodged. It is a fact that
we have not played the game of which
we - are capable. The fault did not lie
wholly in poor pitching, either. We
have lost many games because we did
not get the most out of our hitting
ability and speed.
I suppose we looked too lightly
upon the other teams. But if so w<
have learned a good lesson, for every
Giant player will try his very best
from now until the season is over
Over-confidence is blamed for the
loss of a pennant to the Athletics
last year. It will not be our sad lot
this season. McGraw is a man who
wiU not stand for trifling.

Abstinence Will Bring Success
G O © © 0 © ©
Shun Tobacco, Says Frank Chance
Bv Frank L. Chance
This is my sixteenth year in major
league baseball. For fifteen of those
years I was connected with the Chi
cago club. In that time I have served
at practically everything, from ail-
round utility man to manager.
And. incidentally. I believe that I
have about sized up the situation in
regard to hall players. In the first
place, it is essential that tobacco and
drink be left alone. If drink Is ta
booed it naturally follows that late
hours also will be tabooed. It Is nec
essary foi a youngster aspiring to
succeed in baseball to see to it that
his constitution is made strong and
that he does nothing to interfere with
his physical development.
I have come to the conclusion that
a man is not fully developed until ne
has reached 30 years of age. Possi
bly after that the moderate use f
tobacco will not do him any great in
jury.
So much for my advice to young
sters who aspire to make baseball t
profession.
"My advent into baseball was prob
ably as inauspicious as an event of
such a nature could possibly be. There
w'ere no brass bands to meet me at
the station, and. as 1 remember, the
newspapers of Chicago devoted a
short paragraph—maybe it was only a
sentence—to the fact that the Chicago
team had signed a young catcher.
But I am getting a bit ahead of the
story. In 1894-95 I played ball on the
Washington College (California)
team. With me was a young fellovw
also a student at the college, named
•Rod” Wagner. During the summer
months he was manager or had some
thing to do with a town team a*.
Sullivan, Ill. He asked me how I would
like to play ball there. He told me
I could get $40 a month and my
board and lodging.
At that time I was only 16. and $10
a week sounded pretty good to me,
so 1 accepted. The club didn't make
any money and 1 was "done” out of
my pay.
I returned to college in 1897 and
took part in a big amateur baseball
tournament held in California for
youths under 18 years of age. Some
of the fellows who entered it of course
cheated, but that has nothing to do
with my case.
“Cal” MeVey. who one time w*as a
member of the Cincinnati team, saw
me play and recommended me to
"Cap” Anson, who was then manager
of the Chicago club. Anson* refused to
give me a trial. That was either .n
the .spring or early summer of 1897.
In the autumn of the same year Me
Vey wrote to "Jim" Hart, who had
! succeeded Anson, and Hart sent for
' me.
I was signed as an extra catcher,
j but after 1 had been in Chicago for
I a while it seemed to me as if I had
been signed as a sort of make-your-
•elf-useful around the ball park. Any
little odd jobs that were to be done
and there wasn’t anybody else handy
to do them I was ordered to pitch in.
If the bat boys didn't show up, T
had to look after the bats. If there
was no one else to carry the bats
from the “bus” into the ball park, or
from the ball park to the “bus,” I did
it. If.Hart or some of the veteran
players on the club forgot anything,
such as gloves and the like, I was
sent after them Even some of Jhe
“bushers” who were just breaking in
pretty much the same as I was. but
who happened to be my seniors by a
couple of years, employed me as er
rand boy for them.
But I stood it. I was in the big show
and I was determined to make good.
I realized that the best way to make
good was to stick around as long as
they would let me and watch the
cavortings of those who knew. I did.
I and eventually my time came. And I
guess I must have made good.
The club was in need of a first b&fle-
i man. and I was delegated to cov*«r
the bag.
It was in 1906 that 1 was made
; manager of the Cubs, after nine years
of service. Of course, the rest is
what might be called modern history
I and there is no use rehashing that.

By Left Hook.
B OXING attracts unusual attention
this week inasmuch as some eft
the leading pugilists will take
part in important battles in various
parts of the country.
The big event is the twenty round
clash between Jess Willard and Gun
boat Smith in San Francisco Tues
day night. On the coast there is lit
tle speculation on the result. The
Californians never have seen Willard
fight, but in the East ring followers
believe that Willard is too big and
clever for the heavy hitting Smith.
The winner of this battle will be in
a position to force Luther McCarty
into a fight, which ought to determine
the ownership of the world's title.
Klau* Meets McGoorty.
Frank Klaus, middleweight cham
pion. will make his first appearance
in this country since whipping Papke
and Carpentier in France, at Pitts
burg Saturday night. He will hook
up with Eddie McGoorty, of Oshkosh
in a six round affair. If Klaus whips
McGoorty. which he ought to do ratti
er easily, he will be matched to box
Mike Gibbons in New York, as th**
latter showed In the scrap with Jack
McCarron last week that he had come
back with all of his former skill.
Jim Flynn Fights Coffey.
Heavyweights wi 11 provide two ten
round bouts In New York Friday
night. Fireman Jim Flynn will try
conclusions with Jim Coffey, a raw-
boned Irishman from Dublin, who cap
hit like a pile driver. Coffey has
knocked out all comers.
In Los Angeles Bud Anderson and
Joe Mandot offer a dandy scrap,
which should go twenty rounds. It 's
booked for Tuesday night.
At Kenoshe Tuesday night Murphy a
and Britton meet, but little enthu
siasm is shown in the affair.
