''"'BUI U (riving Charley the low down Oft. the Portland turnovers, and to hear BUI tell It. Sacramento bought a bunch Of ball players who are curly wolves. 1 But pause, let Bill tell the Btory In his own words : "Dear Charley, Kte. (Mr. Charles Graham. ' Sacramento, Cal. -1 "Dear Sir Tour letter of the 6th Inst. . received today. "Kvery thing, is lovely - And the goose hangs high.' The agree- ment the judge has mailed to you Is .'. satisfactory. "With the players mentioned In the deal, we have a foundation upon which " to build our team that compares favor y ably with the rest of the league. How ever, the judge has held back what he i considers the best sellers, who are ."players of the' type that will bring a ; good price If they get going right. They are Farmer, Siglin and Lee. The : former should go for a big figure right now, and the only thing against him Is that he has been up before. They are bulling about selling him to Detroit, but when the smoke clears away I figure Jack will be In the Salt Lake line-up, even though he may report to , Detroit In the 'spring. He is good enough for anybody's club. In appoint ing Siglin manager of his team the Judge probably figures he can afford to pay him enough salary to hold him, . as Paddy is a big league prospect. Lee 1 will be kept, because he is a young fellow just starting out and will stand for. a Northwest salary. He also has the earmarks. However, Sigltn and Lee '. wUl have to have a good year before - they are marketable, and you know the uncertainty of the game is what makes : It so popular. J. i Are Not Worrying ...The Judge would not consider these nten In the deal for a minute, and I would not consider , them unless they were put in on the same price basis as the rest of the gang. Therefore, we are not worrying over not getting them. v , "Griggs, Borton, Fisher, Gardner and .. myself are in about the same class.- We ' are old plugs who have made a pretty fair showing in most of the leagues in the country. And while we are out of the salable and prospect class, all of us are still capable of playing the best :- brand of baseball that we have ever de livered. For Instance, Art Griggs played . better in all departments last season after he joined the Beavers than at any time In his career. Harry Gardner has developed a spltter that has given him '. a new lease on life. - Boost for Brenton v "Brenton has as much pitching ability as anybody In the world, and that is covering a lot of territory. Why he ' was not the leading pitcher in the league last summer Is a mystery. I consider him the best prospect In the game today, and with just our allotted - share of luck with this boy he will bring; five times the purchase price of the whole outfit "At the plate. Wills is the best man ins the league. He is a consistent 300 - hitter, and when It comes to looking them over and all around good Judg .ment in that batter's box he has no equal. He is also a good outfielder, base-runner and all around ball player. Xobody questions his ability. The rea " son he is not In the big brush right now because the owners and scouts have he wrong Impression of him. - Off the field he is one of the most gentlemanly, - quiet and agreeable sort of fellows that . V 1 "have ever had the pleasure of meet ing. In a baseball uniform he is "hell cat. Nobody In the business fights ; ny harder to win. He claws up - the ground and bites the bushes.

But this hustle and determination are the best assets any player can have, and it is the best stuff that can be pulled, as the fans like and demand action and Plenty of It. Once ira great while when he considers himself our a mile, when on one of his daily rampages, he fails to slide or run out a batted ball, which Iji a very serious offense, both from the viewpoint of the spectators and the outcome of the contest. After the storm has blown .over. the Texas wUdcat swears he doesn't know how It hap. pened. This is the only reason Wllle Is fooling around in the minors today The scouts claim he Is a hard man to handle with a mean disposition. How ever, while kidding him about this to day, he says It will never happen again and that he is sure going to the big show next fall. FineUl Should Hit J60 "If Pinelll can swing the bat at a .260 clip he will bring home the bacon. He is fast, a specutacular fielder, and certainly has the pep and the right disposition. He has the brass and crust of a burglar and nothing feazes him. If he ever gets loose and breaks for the brush he will never be headed, as he is always rearing to go. He will be very popular with the fans and If he hits, will also be popular with the right side of the ledger next fall. 'Six of us are married with depend ents, and the chances are that Wille and Brenton may not be in the first army draft. In building our team the war must be considered very seriously "With Mr. Heeseman as our president know that we have one of the best organizations and outfits In the league and I feel absolutely certain that our new venture will be a successful one. In my connection with baseball I have always been a 'working optimist,' and will be to the end. "I will be in Sacramento at the ear liest possible moment. It will take me a few days to straighten, out my busi ness affairs here, so you can figure on me about the first of next week. Then we will get down to real business."
