OF OTHER DAYS
;; in i in r i nr urn
(By Associated Press)
NEW YORK, Jan 25.—A gllmps*
of the baseball 0f the early seventies
is given in a pamphlet on the game
published in 1875, which was recently
unearthed by a modern devotee of the
sport. The booklet, which Is equiva
lent to the present day baseball
guide, consists of about thirty pages
instead of the several hundred now
necessary to chronicle the records of
the many major and minor league
teams.
! Much of the space is devoted to the
doings of the Boston National Asso
ciation club, winner of the champion
I ship of the previous year. The com
bination included several players the
names of whom are still familiar to
the fans of this day. That they were
high-class players, according to the
standards of those times, goes with
out saying, yet there is nothing to in
dicate that they were supermen either
on the diamond or off the field of
play.
The personnel of the Boston club
of that year shows that of the twelve
, players whose physical dimensions are
given, A. G. Spalding, pitcher and cen
I ter fielder, was the only one who ex
ceeded the six-foot mark. The ma
jority of the players ranged from five
feet six inches to five feet nine inches,
and the average weight was not more
than 160 pounds. The heaviest man
on the team was McVey, who tipped
the scales at 190 pounds.
The batting averages of those days
were computed to show the number
of base hits per game, and McMullen
of the Athletics led the league with
■ 1.90. “Pop” Anson was eighth, with
. 1.78, and Spalding eleventh with 1.70.
: In club batting the Boston team led
; with an vaerage of 17.11 hits per
i game, and the Athletics were second
| with 15’.06.
The total receipts of the Boston
! club for the season of 1874 amounted
1 to $.30,931.17, and the expenses to $30,
I 865.97. A portion of these expenses,
I which were exceptionally large for
| that period of baseball development,
1 included the trip to Europe, the first
I of the several invasions of England
I and the continent by American base
i ball combinations. The salary roll
i for the entire year then would now
barely pay for one star player, as the
accounts show that $17,900 covered
• the entire cost for the season in this
i direction. Ground rent amounted to
$517.50, and uniforms, bats, balls, etc.,
cost $387.89. Even in the early days
of the game advertising was not over
looked, as the accounts show that
$1,619.70 was spent for advertising
and printing, which was more than
the combined rental of the grounds
and the team equipment expenses.
Norman Brookes, who with Anthony
F. Wilding wrested the Davis cup, em
\ blematic of the world's amateur ten
\ nis championship, from the United
. States hin 1914, was at last reports a
. Red Cross commissioner in Mesopo
Itamia, with the rank of lieutenant
colonel.
The consensus of opinion among
football coaches and officials is that
play during the past season was un
usually hard yet exceptionally clean.
The fighting spirit engenered by the
world war appears to have permeated
the gridiron sport, with the result that
football was played with a war-time
zest that marked the season as out of
the ordrniay.tr.oflfbncee.u . .sixete min
the ordinary.
Trap shooting continues to grow in
popularity. The latest compilations
5 show that more than 4,600 trap-shoot
ing clubs are in existence, with that
number being added to steadily. The
state of Pennsylvania leads all others
of the country, with a total of 565.
New York is second, with 383; Illi
nois third, w'ith 309, and Iowa fourth,
with' 254.
According to the latest record of
Princeton university students in the
military service, all but one member
of the 1916 ’varsity football squad are
now serving with the colors or in some
allied war department. The only “P”
man who has not left college is under
age, and he is a member of the Prince
ton reserve officers' training camp.
