It couldn't be helped, even If any
body could be bum wport enough to
want to see a grand player kept out
of a big league berth.
But it POES seem rather tough
on Bisland, at that.
The Browns have got him

P'-PPing up with a roar that Bis
land should have been “covered,” and
thus preserved io the Cracker box
of 1914
By ’’covering” is meant the delicate
process by which a ball player is sold
by a minor league club to a major
league club, with a sort of invisible
string tied to him This preserves
him from the drafting process, and !
presumably wrenches him back to i
’he (dd stamping ground w hen the i
next season rolls around.
Now why wasn't Blsland covered 0 |
\A7 iTHd’T posing as the announcer
** for the Atlanta Hub’s director- !
ate. we don’t mind hazarding a bit of
a guess.
The management of the Atlanta
club wouldn’t have been doing the
square thing by Bisland.
Bisland is good enough for a try
at the big league game, at the very
least.
That brilliant fielding ability of
| Bisland's—that disposition to hit in
! the pinches—that smooth, swift ac
tion —all that is Blsland's capital in
life.
( ‘ course. Bisland is ambitious. He
wants to play in the Rig League. He
wouldn’t be a true ball player, else.
Then there’s ihe monos- parr of it
for it must be remembered tha’
1 Risland's capital is his baseball
I ability.

• • #
lb’ we had to make any criticism of

quarters.
