W HILE viewing with regrot the
ppor 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
of a successful baseball team. There
must be something to this contention
or else why does it constantly flash
across our think pan?
There is no one will deny hut that
Frank Chance is a great manager;
that he can get more out or the same
men under his 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 is
the poor luck that has greeted the
team 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 wifi go down
against the Peerless Leader in future
discussions.
* * *
TV/TIXD. no one expected Chance to
make good in a single season, nor
in two or three seasons for that mat
ter. But we surely looked for bet
ter results than have been brought
to date. A lot of wooden Indians, fre
quently seen 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 fhow that he is really
all his friends have claimed for him.
He must weed out the dead and re
place them with live apd winning m«-
terial. When he has done this we’ll
. shout bravo!
♦ * *
PHANi'K 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 Seleo 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
lee and proved such alluring bait to
the other clubs that the swap which
brought Brown. Shekard and others
into the Cub fold was comparatively
easy. 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 showed such ability when
he organized the Highlanders for
their first appearance in the Ameri
can League. Things, however, were
rather 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 h* doing wonders. But
in figuring matters remember that
it was Cantillon who got 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.

vnr tSDNESDAY is Ad Men’s Day
\l\l at Ponce DeLeon ball park.
And for the first time this
season the people of Atlanta will b # e
given an opportunity to show that
they appreciate what the Ad Men
have done for them and what they
arc planning to do.
“What have they done?” you ask.
Well, for one thing, they have,
within the year, raised more than
$100,000 for various good causes in
Atlanta. The Y. M. C. A., the Cham
ber of Commerce and goodness knows
how many charitable organizations
haye been helped by money they
have raised.
This spring when it appeared that
Atlanta was to lose the honor of
turning out the largest opening day
crowd, the Ad Men’s Club whirled,in
and v.hooped things up with a result
that all Southern League records for
all time were fractured.
At 'every convention of Ad Men’s
Clubs which they have attended they
have whooped up Atlanta in some
really spectacular way that has put
the Gate City before the delegates
in a most favorable light.
“Wht will they do .with the money
they raise?” you inquire.
Just this—they will use it to boost
Atlanta at the Baltimore convention.
They don’t want their car fare paid
They are all blowing themselves to
that. They don’t want it for enter
tainment or for themselves in any
way.
They want it for Atlanta.
The'scheme is this. The big feature
of the convention will be a night
parade. There will be 100 motor
truck floats, prepared by national
advertisers. There will be bands ga- j
lore. And every Ad Men’s Club rep- ;
resented there will march in uniform
in the parade. The local men are |
going to buy their uniforms—and it
will cost them about $35 apiece for 1
this. They need money, however, to
buy big. white parasols, on which the
word, “Atlanta” will be printed in
huge, red letters. They need money
also for big electric flash lamps, which ,
will be provided with huge glass
globes, on which, in red, will be the i
words “Atlanta Always Ahead.’’ They
need money for a band. In other words
they need it to boost Atlanta at Bal
timore.
The cause is a worthy one.
The Ad Men do just as much to
boost Atlanta as any organization
here. They take over all the odd jobs
that the Chamber of Commerce is too
dignified to handle, and any good
boosting organization needs support.
CHARLIE WHITE STOPS

NEW ORLEANS. 'May 20.—Charlie
White stopped Joe Thomas in the
second round of th,eir 11)-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
lhe second round the referee. Dick
Burke, raised White’s hand and mo-
tionea Thomas to his corner.

Bv 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 fio 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 as miraculous. Mathewson
has been the great bulvvarK of the
Giant pitching staff so long that the
public has come to regard his won
derful brilliancy as a matter of com
mon habit.
To none other than the great mas
ter of pitching sc ience may New York
contratulato 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
I share the belief with him.
Here is a pitcher who very wisely
iyts conserved every ounce of vital
ity. By the use of his head he has
b?en able to shine year after year
with the .very least possible strain
to his arm. And 1 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 the
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 towara
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
bitting my pace when an attack of
tonsilitis set me hack.
By the time I am on my feet once
more—and that will not he very long.
1 can tell you—the Giants should be
as well provided with pitching ma
terial as any club could desire. T
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 unsatisfactory 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- j
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 b ■ the runaway that j
most or our supporters presumed be- j
fore the start. It will mean a good,
steady fight througn the whole course,
a condition that should make the cur
rent season a mos* memorable one.
League Strength in East.
The strength of the National
League, as evidenced in the first
month’s play, centered in the East, j
just as it does in the American. Phil
adelphia and Brooklyn, rather than
Pittsburg and Chicago, seem bent
upon most forcibly debating the
championship with the Giant*.
With Hans Wagner back in the
game the Pirates arc almost bound }
to greatly improve their standing
Mfcoc Clarke’s pitchers haw been woe
f5ly off color all along, and C -
condition has resulted in a \ w 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 outride its pitchers, but is so
weak in box material that it can not
hope, 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 respects is superior.
A very pleasing circumstance to the
Giants 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 (’hicago.
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.
1 suppose we looked too lightly
upon the other teams. But if so \vt
have learned a good lesson, for every
Giant, player will try his very best
from now until the season is over
Over-confidence isa 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
will not stand for trifling.
SPORT.
When Nero lived in ancient day*
Men had their sport in brutal ways.
They sat around on cushioned scats
And loudly cheered the bloody feats
Performed by large and lowbrowed
gents
Who earned their bread by putting
dents
And fractures in another's dome
To please the populace of Rome
To-day we all would take offense
( We men of high intelligence)
To see a pair of fellows wield
A butcher's cleaver and^a shield,
And clout each other on the dome
4* in the days of ancient Rome.
We love a nobler form of sport,
A milder and a gentler sort,
And so w<' pay our hard earned scads
To see a lot of’ healthy tads
Who race on motorcycle tracks
And break their arms, anil* legs and
backs.
Who travel at a fearful rate
ind finish in a scrambled state.
And if, perchance, they do not die
We heave a disappointed sigh.
“Ah, yes!" we say while riding home.
“What brutes there were in ancient
Pome!"

By Prank L. Chance
This is my sixteenth year in major
league baseball. For fifteen of those
years 1 was connected with the Chi
cago club. In that time I have served
at practically everyihing, from all
round utility man to manager.
And, incidentally, I believe that I
have about sized up the situation in
regard to ball 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 for 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 i
profession.
“My advent into baseball was prob
ably as inauspicious as an event of
such a nature could possibly be. There
were no brass bands to meet me at
thp station, and, as I remember, the
newspapers of Chicago devoted a
short paragraph—maybe it was only a
sentence—to the fact thnt the Chicago
team had signed a ypung catcher.
But I am getting a bit ahead of the
. story. In 1894-95 I played ball on the
j Washington College (California)
team. With me was a young fellow,
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 at
Sullivan, III. He asked me how I would
like to play ball there. He told mo
I could get $4K a month and my
board and lodging.
At that time I was only 16, and $10
. a week sounded pretty good to me,
j so I accepted. The club didn’t make
' any money and I was “done” out of
my pay.
FODDER FOR FANS
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” McVey, who one time was 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 in
the spring or early summer of 1897.
In the autumn of the same year Mc
Vey wrote to “Jim” Hart, who had
succeeded Anson, and Hart sent for
me. *
I was signed as an extra catcher,
but after I had been in Chicago for
a while it seemed to me as if I had
been signed as a sort of make-your-
| self-useful around the ball park. Any
little odd jobs that were to be done
I and there wasn’t anybody else handy
i to do them 1 was ordered to pitch in.
If the bat boys didn’t show up, I
had to look after the bats. If there
was no one else t to carry the bats
from the “bus” into the ball park, or
from the hall park to the “bus,” I did
it. If Hart or some of the veteran
playefs on the club forgot anything,
such as gloves and the like, I was
sent after them. Even some of the
“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 shov*
and I was determined to make good.
I realized that the best way to mak i
good was to stick around as long as
they would let me and watch the
cavortings of those who knew. I did.
land eventually my time came. And I
guess I must have made good.
! The club was in need of a first base-
man. and 1 was delegated to cover
the bag.
It was in 1906 that I was male
, manager of the Cubs, after nirre years
of service. Of course, the rest is
what might be called modern history
i and ihere is no use rehashing that.
RINGSIDE NOTES
By W. W. Naughton.
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 Wells,
and Willard out boxed Luther McCar
ty, who beat Al Palzer, who beat
Bombardier Wells.
T»oth Willard and Smith are well
thought of around New York and are
regarded as fit candidates for the
world's championship. Willard lacks
tin* 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.
C. Webb Murphy, disgusted with the .
weal;ness of his pitching staff, sent j
