Ther are too many reformers. ' . , : : - Billy Evans Says: ANOrHKU MISTAKi: Once upon a time a certain man ngnr tried to make on Inftclder out of the Krcat Christy Muthewson, one of the most n'tnarkable pitch era In the history of tho same. That Is merely told a preface to the story of Fred Micas, pitching acamtlcn of tho Cinrinnatl 1v-!k. Two years uro, while looking over the. Host on llravcs in spring tralnliifc. 1 observed a young man by- the name of l.ucajt cavorting around second base. . 1 was told that I.ncas was a re formed pitcher who could hit and he wjs being converted Into a sec ond baseman with the best of re sults. It didn't feem ut the time If I.ucoa was destined to rival Kdille Collins as a fielder. DORS A COM I "HACK When the season opened Lucas. highly touted ns a second sacker In the spring, wus not in the link up. Evidently his pitching didn't Impress, because he was soon ship ped to Seattle In the Taciric Coast league. At Seattle he pitched with suc cess and because of his ability to bit was used as emergency out fielder. He finished tho season with a batting average close to .400. This spring we im T.ucas back in the big show as a member oi ir.- Cincinnati Reds. Of the first 13 games won by Cincinnati, h captured four of his first five starts and, used as a pinch-hitter, really had unother to his credit by coming through with a timely swat. And still they once tried to make a second baseman out of Pitcher Lucas. That also go s for Christy Mathewson. MACK KXPLAINS proper temperament, as well as unusual managerial ability, explains tha remarkable success that has been the portion of Connie Mack. Connie la an optimist. He can always see a silver lining to the darkest situation. Picked to be a pen nan t-con tender from the start, the first month was a most disappointing one for the Mnckmon nnd fouml them rstinpr Xational or Amorlcan. . - In tho sfcoirl division.

Just 25 per (astern opiKWit Ion. "Mavi'irt a single kick to register about the play of the ti-am," re- marked Connie. "The pitching was uniformly good; the team played smart base hall; the fighting spirit w:w always there, hut vi just couldn't win for the litrk of a timely bust' hit. "lleally we should have won the first seven games we lost. In every ' game there were from one to three chances when' a bust lilt would hav turned defeat into victory. "That is why I im not worrying, still positive my club will In- a strong pennant -cont'nder." MrfiUAWS itr.coitn Noted the other day where John McGraw bag sinned a new three- year contract to manage the Giants. That will set to rest all rumors '. that MctSraw Intindcd to retire. The ' j supposition was that he wus groom- j i lug Hughey Jennings for the jnd. It is possible that the serious 111- ' n'ss of Hughey caused McCiruw to j change his plans. : This Is MeGraw's twnty-fcnrth year as manager of the New York Giants. Puring that time he has won 10 pennants. In this respect Connie Mack, with six wins for Philadelphia, is his closest rival.
