Disappointed With
His 1916 Giants
NEW YORK, Sept. 11.—John Mc
Graw, disappointed with his 1916 Gi
ants, is starting in all over with the
intention of putting his 1917 line-up
in the pennant fight from the start.
He has started trades which have ma
terially strengthened the Giants and
already has purchased minor league
players who right now appear to have
the making of stars.
McGraw has had uncommonly bad
luck recently in his trades. One of
the most notable of his failures is
Hans Lobert, the veteran third base
man he acquired from Philadelphia.
He gave in exchange several young
sters who have been doing good work
for the Phillies.
The acquisition of Sallee, Herzog
and Zimmerman, however, gives prom
ise of bringing better results. All of
these men, while they no longer are
youngsters, have been put through
the mill, and each of them has proved
his class. Whether they, like some
other* of McGraw’s acquisitions, will
fall down next season, is a matter
which that season alone will decide.
In addition to these three stars, Mc
Graw’s lines are out for youngsters
he expects will fill the shoes of de
parted stars. Walter Holke, a recruit
first baseman, is favored as a likely
candidate for Fred Merkle’s old sta
tion at first base. He is now with Ro
chester in the International league,
but his release has been purchased by
the Giants and he will report next
spring. He will be given a thorough
try-out.
Lew McCarty, obtained from Brook
lyn in the deal which sent Fred Mer
kle to the Dodgers, looks to be one of
the coming windpad stars. He is a
hitter of great power and led the Na
tional league for some time. He will
prove a great help to Bill Rariden.
Both clubs seem to have benefited by
this deal, for Brooklyn was badly in
need of a first-class doorkeeper when
Jake Daubert was injured.
The trades and purchases which
brought Herzog, Zimmerman and Mc
Carty to the Giants are epochal from
a baseball standpoint. With the Her
zog deal Christy Mathewson passed
from New York; Merkle departed
with the coming of McCarty and
Doyle, almost the last of the great Gi
ant machine so successful in bygone
years, went to the Cubs lor “Zim."
Sallee grouched with the Cardinals,
but is believed to have several good
seasons left as a Giant.
The success or failure of Coach
Jumbo Stiehm with the Indiana Uni
versity football team will be awaited
with much interest. When he had
charge of football at Nebraska he
was proclaimed the best coach west of
the Alleghenies. He will ha\re a chance
at Indiana to prove his metal aaginst
coaches of the Big Nine.
A. Rankin Johnson, whose battles
with Walter Johnson were a sensation
when Rankin was a member of the
Red Sox, has again kicked ever the
traces, having departed from the Tex
as league. He says he’ll play inde
pendent ball.
Poe field at Princeton has been nam
ed in honor of Johnny Poe, former
Princeton football star, wno was kill
ed while fighting in France for the
allies.
PLAYERS SAY SEWARD
SPORTS REAL McCOY
The following excerpt from the
sporting column of the Seattle Times
shows that Seward has a pair of
warm friends in Dave Williams and
Babe Lee who helped defeat Anchor
age:
“Dave Williams, pitcher, and Babe
Lee, catcher, returned to Seattle yes
terday from Seward, Alaska, where
they took part in the ‘world’s serious’
—a three game tilt with Anchorage.
Frank Cotter, of Seward, was the live
wire back of that club, and Fred Tra
cey, well known in Seattle, was the
manager of the Anchorage team.
Seward won two of the three games
and Dave was a regular hero. The
fans of the two towns bet their heads
off on the games and one druggist in
Seward would have been broke and
entirely out of business had Dave
failed to win. The boys say they were
treated like princes by the Seward
fellows. Though they were promised
only a trip for playing, they were
presented $100 each for each game
and alltheir expenses were paid. An
offer was made to put them in busi
ness in charge of a billiard hall if
they would stay, but the boys prefer
red to winter in Seattle. They did
not allow a hit in the first game.
Frank Cotter was so tickled over the
victory that he wrote a poem entitled
‘When Tracey Came to Town,’ in
which he joshed his old friend Fred
good and plenty. In Seward they
think Dave Williams is good enough
to pitch in the major leagues."
