For instance, take the historic case of Bill Bartley. Wil liam was a grand looking pitcher once—so good that even Connie Mack Mked him and carted him around awhile. He was a fine, big, handsome blue-eyed, ladles’-day-hero sort of a chap but be didn't have a lot of stuff, it seemed. Bill dropped back to the Eastern League but he didn't show' a lpt there and Charley Frank, who had owned bis services before, grabbed him. Frank gave, him a thorough trial Snd then passed this verdict: "All Bill Bartley has left Is his looks.” And then he sold him to BUI Smith, Atlanta manager. That was In 1909, whan Bill was putting up a great fight for the pennant, but he was In some thing the same tlx a? this year BUI had everything but pitchers. The league figured it a line Joke , that rrank had played on BUI Smith. ! They chuckled over it mightily. Nobody knows what happened but Bartley came to life the day he hit Atlanta. With good support he couldn't lose a game. For the whole season he piled up a mark of 19 won and 11 lost But several of his de feats came before Smith bought him The rest came after the pennant was cinched. While the battle was at Its warmest he hardly lost a game. Not even Johns and Fldher did more than Part ley in ctnchlng the rag • • • C ONSIDER then the cate of Bert Maxwell The tall Arkansas chap got a big league trlaj and was turn ed back to the Southern where he was kicked around like a second hand football- Atlanta had him in 1909 but he couldn’t make it here and was turned over to New Orleans, where he did little. Ht stuck there the rest of 1909, all of 1910 and part of 1911. And all the while he was gomg bad. Then he was handed to Birmingham for a no rig. Right then Maxwell] came to life. No pitcher the league ha# ever known showed more stuff. He was th< reigning sensation. And so good did he look that the Giants* bought him for a stiff price. He showed but little for McGraw and was turned over to the International League, where he has slnoe remained He wasn't “good” for long, but while he wa* he made a punk ball club look great. O • • C OMING down to metre recent times there Is the celebrated cake of A1 Demaree. He couldn’t show' anything much for Chattanooga and the Crack ers thought so little of him that af- -ter they got him on a deal they didn’t l trouble to have him report. Last year Demaree went to Mobile. He didn’t have a lot of team behind him. but he set the league ablaze and transformed the naturally weak GuUg into a dangerous team. * * • N OTICE the similarity between these case* and that of BUI Chap- /pelle. Bill has been to the big leagues He lias looked good but per formed Indifferently for several clubs •».• of the league He is shifted to At lanta when the team Is In distress True. Chappelle hasn't set the league to smoldering yet, but he hasn't pitched a bad game for the Crackers, and he seems ready to win a bunch ■' of them when he gets the right sup port Chappelle has the size and the ."'strength to be a great pitcher. There never was any question about his "speed” and he has a lot of other stuff besides. But somehow he ha«n’t fitted into any of the teams he lias been with lately. ■e Bill Smith and his players believe that Chappelle Is sure to be one of •the sensations of the season. Maybe so, maybe not. It would help a lot If he happened to get go- '•-Ing right. And. as was bemarked before, stran ger things have happened. f SER HONOR- 1 FOUNO THIS MAM UN'Jtf.

Atlanta. Ga. Opposite Third National Bank. By “Chick” Evans. A BOUT twenty miles north of the city of Detroit, on the road be tween Detroit and Pontiac, are the beautiful Bloomfield Hill*. De troit itself 1* situated on a bit of flat land and for that reason these hills come upon one in the nature of a surprise. Two years ago a golf club wkf formed by some sport-lov ing citizens of Detroit and a site tor the course wag eelerted out among the Bloomfield Hills. A great deal of money has been spent on the Unkn; the course ha? been gradually worked Into excellent shape and from a scenic standpoint, few places excel It. The course ran be conveniently reached either by the Interurban. which runs through there hills from Detroit on the Way to Pontiac, or by an automoblta or carriage As it happened , to .be my lucky day, I went out to 'he course a few week* ago In an automobile with Thomas Neal. Joel StcnUard. Standish Backus and Gilbert Waldo, who Is known as "the man who beat Hilton.” The ride was an especially pleasant one. through the residence part of the city, then past large automobile factories and finally a delightful run through a little real country. Soon the road, which I was told had been rising Im perceptibly ever since we left the city, made a hold elope upward and we found ourselves among the hills, and on every side were beautiful houses with spacious lawns. At last, through a little valley, 1 saw the club house, gayly bedecked with flags, and I heard irregularly across the hills the strains of music. Then we turned up a little driveway and found our selves In full view of the golf club on Its formal opening day. Fine View From Club House. The club house Is new and situated on an eminence, and from every side it commands beautiful views of hill and valley and handsome residences. It was h vision to make glad the heart of Htty golfer, and the wanderer from Chicago, after doing full Justice to * delicious luncheon, fairly Jumped into hie golfing clothes and made ferr the links'. The first three holes were long and a bit strenuous They were two wood en shots and brassie for me, and then came a shorter hole. The third hole presents an apple orchard as an un usual carry from the tee Fancy driv ing across that orchard pink with bloom in the spring, or of sending a ball cra'shtng through fruit In au tumn. The seventh Is one of the best nat ural holes 1 ever saw The tee is set in the woods and the drive Is out and through a widening avenue of trees, and then there Is a hill with a plateau which covers the right hand half and another a little farther up which covers the left-hand aide. The good and daring driver plays to carry unto this plateau, but the player who pulls too much runs off and the one who cannot reach ends up in a hollow The next shot is Just a vary ing mashie chip Links Not Yet Bunkered. Of course the links are not trapped or bunkered yet and. therefore, not a green Is guarded nor Is a pulled or sliced shot penalized. Another bad feature Is the nearness of the holes and the paralleling which permits wide tee shotB to land unpenaliaed on another course. It seems to me j that there are too many blind holes, j It might be a good idea to force, the I player of a poor shot to make a , blind one. but the good player should have a fair chance to show his skill. It w as interesting to look over the 1 Bloomfield Hills course and see that | H. F Colt had been there. For a moment, as 1 looked at the stakes that mark euggested Improvements, 1 thought 1 was back on Chicago Golf. At the seventh hole Mr. Colt advises | the digging away of the faces of two hills to make hazards.

The recent defeats have awakened the players to the ne cessity of hustling, and they are starting West determined to tight their way to the top, as the team did back in 1911 when we Von the pennant In the eventual dash to the wire.* “What is Philadelphia going to do?” is the question that is stirring those interested in baseball now. The Quakers got a good start, and were in the race until July back in 1911, but they began to slip after that, and finished entirely out of the running for first place. The Giants played a series with the Quakers in the first part of July in that year, and they won four out of five games from us. The carping critics declared that the Giants were gone after those battles, and began to recite our obituaries^ but the team flashed through the West in a final sprint, inspired by the fighting spirit of McGraw, and won the pennant, al though it was said broadcast that it WALSH MAY BOX KILBANE. BOSTON. June 2.—Jimmy Walsh, of this city, has accepted an offer from the Queen City Ciub of Cin cinnati to box Johnny Kilbane in that city’ July 4. White City Park Now Open could not be done. * * • T HERE is one factor on tbe New York team with which most folks do not reckon when considering th© season’s prospects. This is John McGraw. No ball club in the world can go through a season and not play the game for him if he has to shake it from the roots to the top. McGraw admits and concedes that, the Giants are playing bad ball now, but he is not letting it go at that. If you could listen to some of his post-mortems in (he clubhouse after me games you would consider a blast of dynamite to tie a nerve soother compared to his conversation. He picks the games apart and shows where they were lost. He has done a lot of picking lately, too. What the Giants lack at present is the old hitting punch in the pinches which they ha'l carried for two years and which had made them famous and champions, too. The greatest tonic tbe team could have at present would tie four or five more victories, and these wins are hound to come right now. in my opinion. We move along to St. Louis from here, where we should encounter fairly easy trav eling in spite of the fact that the Car dinals gave us a tough argument in New York. Their pitchers are not go ing as well now as they were. From St. Louis the Giants go to Chicago, and that brings us to the discussion of another team. • * * T HE Cubs are a good ball club out side of their pitchers, aud Evers has one top-notch man, Cheney, who is showing signs of overwork at pres ent. Lavender and Rich! eboth look ed like fair jierformers last season, but they have not been able to make any impression on the National League this spring. Perhaps it is the weather. All pitchers blame the weather when they are slow in start ing. It is an Inexhaustible alibi. Lavender and Richie both looked very lied against the Giants when the Cubs were in New York. Lavender lacking any semblance of control. Richie, as is well kuown. has always been most effective when working against tbe New York dub. Evers' best chance to get a winning ball club is to have Overall return to his old form. He showed a flash of that in a recent battle. With Overall and Cheney in good condition, then Evers could piece out the rest of his pitching from Lavender. Richie and Reulhaoh experimenting with these boys until one of them touched some thing like winning form. The rest of the club is as good both at the bat and In the field as any team in the league. The catching staff is with out a peer in the country. The team is well balanced, and works smooth ly If internal dissension can be avoided. B UT the Cubs are up against three clubs which will develop great pitching staffs before the schedule Is played out, and I do not honestly fig ure how they are going to compete with this sort of high-class twirling. Philadelphia has already shown box- men who have stood all the other teams on their heads, and both New York and Pittsburg have pitchers who are bound to come and he big winners. Besides these two teams, Brooklyn has been receiving good pitching, and Boston gets occasional outbursts of effective twirling. The way tbe Cubs crashed down through the league when they were making their recent tour of the East indicated that they could not stand the doses of pitching being administered by the Eastern clubs. * * * M R. CHARLES W. MURPHY gave out a recent statement, declar ing that I had attacked the Cubs in these articles because he had refused to let me insure the players on the team on whom he had taken out poli cies. That looks to me like a poor alibi, but it is not my intention to get into any controversy with Mr. Murphy, because I need my wind for pitching, since he spoke the truth when he said I would have to work to win my own games from this point along. I hare always had to work to win them. Also I know Mr. Mur phy’s endurance record for long-dis tance talking, and could not hope even to tie him. I gave what was an honest opinion of the Cubs after watching them play and lose three games out of four in New York. Evers is a friend of mine, and his success so long as it did not crowd the Giants would gratify me. He is a game ball player, but he ran into a hard situation in Chicago when he took hold of the team. Mr. Mur phy had made many enemies for the Cubs by the way in which he treated sothe of his old stars last fall. But that is his business and not mine. T HE Phillies deserve some con sideration right here, because they are leading the league at pres ent, no matter where they finish, Dooin has a good ball club, hut his main strength lies in four star pitch ers—Alexander, Rixey. Chalmers and Seaton. This quartet is moving at top speed now, but should any one of them slow up for a minute or two Dooin is going to have a difficult time when he runs into the cluster of dou ble headers that he will he forced to face. By the addition of Fromme. McGraw is well stocked with twirl- ers for these double bills later along. He has five competent performers. It is my notion that the Quakers will fall back on the road trip, al though these may be merely the ob servations of an optimist. They do not move as well away from home as they do on their own diamond, as was shown by the fact that we out played tile club in New York, while they trimmed us handily in Phila delphia.

B ROOKLYN has already started to St. Louts club cannot hold up. Their two star pitchers, Harmon and Sallee, were both beaten last week and these two have been keeping the team in the race. * * * P ITTSBURG is still a dangerous club, and will come strong to ward the end, as it did last season. There is lots of fight in that team, but, like the Giants, the Pirates have not been able to get going. They have good pitching and good hitting, and are bound to come. It is my opinion that the battie will finally be between the Giants and Pirates. It is a long way to the finish, and both of these teams have the best staying qualities, to my mind. (Copyright, 1913, by the McClure News paper Syndicate.) BASEBALL Diamond News and Gossip Meyers, the slugging catcher of the Giants, recovered from his batting slump yesterday long enough to crack three hits out of as many times up. The Naps took the first game of a double-header from the Browns yester day, giving them nine straight victories, but lost the second despite the efforts of fifteen players, including four pitch ers. Josh Devore, the former Giant out fielder, now with’ the Reds, touched up Rube Marquard for three slashing hits yesterday. • * * Lajoie. the vet Nep second sacker, got back into the game regularly yesterday for the first time since about three weeks ago, when one of the Yankee pitchers smashed some bones in his left hand. * * * The Tigers npsed out a 1 to 0 victory over the White Sox yesterday in & pitch ers’ battle. • a * The Cubs took kindly to the delivery of Harmon yesterday and won from the Cardinals 4 to 2. • • • Here is another question under dis cussion, which is the best “wrecking crew”—Magee and Cravath of the Phil lies, Cobh and Crawford of the Tigers, Collins and Baker of the Athletics, or Jackson and Lajoie of the Naps?

B' OSTON, MASS., June 2.—Forget ting the early season series be tween the Boston Nationals and the New York. Brooklyn and Phila delphia teams as one would forget a nightmare, It may be said that George Stallings' team has been going well enough lately to suit the most rabid partisan. His kid player? have turned the trick. When th# pitching 1? good, nine times out of ten, the team behind the pitching will play good ball, and it will be gingered up so that It can bat out the winning run. The batting of the Boston team has not been particularly brilliant. On the contrary, it has been below the average, but It must be remembered most of the men played In the minor leagues last year, and it will take time for them to get accustomed to big league pitching.
