4 rests solely upon the human race. 4
^4 Cheese starts out in life as 4

US WAGNER IS
(By United Press)
NEW YORK, March 24. — So much
lias been written of Hans Wagner,
his record, his habits and his all
round sterling qualities, that It seems
futile to add to the miles of columns
that have been used in his favor.
Wagner, however, is getting ready
:o enter his twenty-sixth season of
-msebail, and the marvel of It is, he
s counted on to play a most import
int part In the hopes of the Pittsburg
Pirates.
Wagner Is a wonder. His remark
tide ball playing Is not the only thing
hat holds him up to fandom on a pe
lestal few players ever have reached
mil none surpassed. Wagner began
to be a ball player before many men
now in the game were born. It was In
1891 that he did his first work for the
Mansfield, Pa., club. He branched
from there to Ohio, finally getting his
name Into the records for the first
time in 1895, when he played with
Steubenville as an outfielder. He
hung up a mark of .402 for forty-four
games.
Wagner spent a couple of seasons in
the Atlantic league, playing with Pat
terson, and then wont to Louisville,
which then boasted a club in the Na
tlonal league. He played three seasons
in Louisville and then was then taken
with the club when it was transferred
to Pittsburg. He played first base,
third base, and in the outfield for
Louisville, hammering the ball each
vear for averages far ahead of .300,
once attaining ,379.
Wagner first dropped from the
charmed circle of batsman when he
hit only .252 in 1911, just after he had
barely stuck in the class by hitting an
even .300.
Wagner is failing. He isn't, the same
old ball player at all. He isn't through
because he will not admit It. and his
smartness in the field and at bat
makes him to be desired over younger
players, who probably would cover
more ground. He admitted a year ago
it was becoming hard for him to see
the ball, and this probably means he
will be on the bench a great deal of
the time this summer.
Indications are he will not be used in
his old position of shortstop, but will
take care of first base for Jimmy Cal
lhan’s entry.
