ment the judge has mailed to you Is

"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

Are Ball Players Pooled?
kk
Trades May Be
New York, Jan. 10. (I.' N. S.)
Though baseball men have made re
peated denials that the clubs of the
two major leagues are pooling play
ers as a war measure the consumma
tion of the latest big player deal
between the Pirates and Dodgers
strengthens the belief among fans
here today.
The Plttsburg-Brooklyn trade was
the seventh big deal of the winter,
and it Is said more deals will be
announced In the near future.
Officials of the New York Giants
have practically admitted that Bos
ton is to get another player in the
deal involving Herzog, Doyle and
Barnes, and several clubs which
have not yet been Involved In trade
are ejtpected to trade or purchase
players.

New York, Jan. 10. (I. N. S.)
J. Owen (Chief) Wilson, the Cardi
nal's outfielder, the. greatest three
base hitter of modern baseball, has
been released to the Houston club

test member of big league company
to fade, but a number of others are
expected to figure in the toll of the
1917 season.
Wilson in 1912 established a rec
ord by making 36 triple hits. That
' record stands yet. In addition he
was a classy fielder and possessed
a wonderful throwing arm.

Connie Mack, despite the faet that
he has sold aU but en of his star
players, believes that the Athletic
fans should reassure themselves. He

the Cleveland club's star pitcher a
few years ago.

years ago and he drifted back to the
minors. His hurling member has
sinee gained strength and he led the
International league last season.
Connie feels that he has secured a
consistent winner for his pitching
staff.
