BY H. C. HAMILTON.
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
New York, Aug. 29. Bill Donovan,
bitterly disappointed over the failure
of his high-priced stars and future
greats to come through and lick the
daylights out of the rest of the
American League is a saddened man.
Now he's on the trail cf some brand
new ones, desired mainly for sound
ness of bones, and he trustingly hopes
the next year will bring solidarity
that some day may be converted into
a' championship team.
Bill's outfield has been a source of
continual worry. His infield has had
its weak spots, and his pitching staff
in spite of its potential strength has
shown a diversity of form amazing
in such hardy workers.
When Bill went out and made the
trade which brought Arrando Mar
sans to New York and sent Lee Ma-
gee to St. Louis, he selected an
orange off the lemon tree, for Mar
sans immediately began to play a
great' fielding game, and to hit 'like
he'd been used to hitting in the Amer
ican League. One hole in that per
plexing outfield appeared to have
been filled. It was not to be, how
ever. Marsans didn't wait long until
he hooked a slide and hooked a bone
in half at the same time. He's out of
consideration now until next year.
Veteran pitchers were relied upon
by Donovan to carry the bulk of the
load with several high-class recruits
in reserve for emergency duty. Ray
Caldwell has worked admirably, but
unluckily most of the time. George
Mogridge has pitched winning ball
only in fits and starts, and Nick Cul
lop has been a season's disappoint
ment. Allen 'Russell has turned in a
surprising amount of ability, but he
too, went and got himself injured to
an incapacitating stage. Ray Fisher
has looked the best of the lot, but for
some reason Donovan has been con
tent to keep him on the bench and
work him semi-occasionally.
Already Donovan has been combing
the minors. He picked up three play-1
ers from Jack Dunn's Baltimore club
of the International League and will
recall many recruits as the minor
leaguers begin to end their seasons.
New faces are due to visit the Polo
grounds and appear in championship
games this year. The process of re
building promises to supplant at least
four Yankees.
marks a day, with only two marks
deducted for board and room and rail
road fare. He accepted and on the
two-days' trip to Torgan, his entire
fjod was two Rjd'iches.
The meals and lodgings were un
bearable, the Swede sai'd. For break
fast they had two thin slices of bread
and imitation coffee. Mid-day din
ner consisted of sauerkraut and po
tatoes and at supper they had only
sauerkraut, which) was mostly water.
At tea-time in the afternoon they had,
in addition, two more slices of bread,
without coffee. Their lodgings were
im the pit of an unused theatre, where
thirty-two workmen were barracked,
ir bunks three' tiers high. '
I The railroad fare was deducted from
hjs first week's wages end he was told
it would nob 'be refunded or the return
ticket paid for unless he worked three
months. iHe was forced to work on
Sundays and was treated as brutally
as the war prisoners.
After Bix weeks the Swede and two
others pawned Jheir spare clothes, es
caped by stealth and made their way
back to Sweden, where they are warn-
sons, of Prineville; Miss Anna Mc
Cullough, Miss Bess Hendrick, of
Prineville; Mrs. J. Casey, of Portland;
and Mrs. Muriel Bater, of Elgin.

La Grande, spent three days ut the
park enjoying all its natural wonders

week-end domiciled at the park.
