Qrantland Rice, In the New York Trib

say about Lajote, who will be with the
Athletics this year. Here's the dopo:
Heart to Heart Talks "With the Hock
Eight years ago this spring we went
Bouth on a training trip with tho Clove
land ball club. Those were the days of
tho Cleveland stalwarts Larry Lajolo,
Slroar Slick, Bill Bradley, Terry Turner,
Bill Bemhard, Addle Joss, Harry Bemls
and Harry xBay.
-There was a ball club that carried the
punch If a ball club ever had one for
eight men on that roster hit .BOO or bet
terand but for the rawest deal the red
oyed goddess ever dealt a machine it
would have breezed in by ten lengths to
the good. At one time, for example, eight
regulars wears out for a. considerable
stretch.
About the Big jgrcnohnmn
On that trip we ivi"ed with Lajola.
and through our friendship for him and
abiding admiration, we mode it a point
to give mora than passing study to his
Jtfay.
He was the greatest hitter we have
vr seen, for he had to make hla hits
cleanly, not having Cobb'a speed to beat
out the infield tapi he was, in addition,
the greatest lnnelder the game has ever
known when It came to making a hard

chance look as easy as an accommoda
tion bounder. Eddlo Collins can cover a
bit moro ground than Lajolo could, but
Eddlo nor any other man over had that
knack of ehuffllng over easily ond half
lastlly in front of a hard clianco and
picking It up without even tho semblance
of an effort.
Tho Main Xnjolo Dotall
Hut abovo all this, there was ono other
point which Impressed us most and
which Mill la on outstanding part of tho
Frenchman's career. We havo seen
Lajote In at least 300 ball games possibly
more. Wo havo kept track of htm for
10 years.
But we have yet to see him mako a
boneheod play; and we lvnvo yet to hear
of him making ono. Wo have seen Kvcra
make a slip or w, and Johnny Is moro
brains than anything else, oxcopt courage.
We have seen Collins, tho alert, mako
his slip, and we have eeon Cobb outguogs
even himself In trying to start something.
But as far as we havo known, Lajote
has been flawless in this respect.
Explaining tho Why
Now, this Is not to say that Lajolo Is
a broiner ball player than Evcrs, Collins
or Cobb. Thoro isn't any such now ex
tant. But In studying Lajolo's play wo
could never Beo that ho was trying to
do any thinking or trying to mako any
certain play In advance. He merely made
It at the right time without thought.
So ono day we put the matter up to
him, to find out whether or not ho ever
thought out a play In advance to know
Just what he must do when the tlmo
arrlvod.
"No," he said, "I merely mako the play
as It comes. When a ball Is batted to
a man there Is but one right placo to
make the play, and ho should bo able
to know that placo without wasting tlmo
thinking about It. By tho time the boll
has roached me, the flash of an eye shows
what tho baso runners aro doing, and tho
rest Is easy. Any man who has to think
out a play has his mind takon off tho
ball, and this leads to a good many
fumbles and mlsplays. When a man Is
eating ho doesn't have to stop and think,
does he, JtiBt how high 'he shall lift his
fork at every bite or how wide open ho
must hold his mouth?"
The Genlua of Instinct
Lajolo, plainly, has always had tho
genius of Instinct He simply knew. He
had an amazing intuition the most re
markable in baseball. He could nover
understand why a man should make a
wrong play. "There was only ono play
to make," ho would say, "why not mako
itr'
The same lnstlnot carried In his mighty
batting. We've seen him let a Btrlke
cross the heart of the plate, without
shifting hla bat, and then on tho next
pitched ball, two feet wide, suddenly
lurch over and drive a white streak of a
hit to tho fence. In place of waiting to
see whether or not the ball would be a
strike, Larry would make up his mind
to awing on the next one, and so would
be set for the wallop with all hesitation
wiped out.
Under euch conditions we have seen
him twice, where the pitch was many
feet wide, reach over and throw his bat
at the ball for short singles over first
base.
Last season the eminent Frenchman
dropped to- .253, but that season was a
nightmare campaign for every man on
the Napland roster. He Is more than
likely to pass .800 again this year for the
greatest Batting Eye that the game has
ever known Isn't quite dimmed yet. He
haa been over the hurdles for 13 years,
but well still travel a long way to eee
him make the hard ones look easy, and
hit 'em where they ain't, or where they
wished they weren't.

LiNG TO TWO THINGS AT
SPORTSMEN HERE
ARE PLANNING A
NEW ORGANIZATION
Outdoor League of Pennsyl
vania May Be Launched
Within Month To Enlist
United Sportsmen Strength
Hunters, fishermen, nature lovers, ca
noeists and persons Interested In the wel
fare of tho forests, streams and birds
and wild llfo generally In Pennsylvania
nre back of tho plan to form an entirely
new organization to cover tho State and
provldo actual live-working; bodies In
every community.
Thero aro several existing; organiza
tions, but their form of government laoks
ties between the Individual mombers and
the State organizations, and thus has
greatly hampered tho usefulness of the
organizations,
The'new organization, to start with. Is
expected to enlist at once practically tho
entire strength of tho United Sportsmen
west of the mountains, and this Is esti
mated at 23 organizations, with a total
membership of close tosl300.
It is understood that tha new organiza
tion will be launched formally within the
next 20 days, While tho name, the Out
Door League of Pennsylvania, has been
suggested and met with favor, the title
has not yet been selected.
The plan of organization will be based
on the established civic divisions of the
State, namely, community, county and
State leagues, closely affiliated with the
representatives to the county governing
bodies elected by the local clubs or or
ganizations, and those of the State gov
erning body elected by the county or
ganizations. Tho work of the new association will
be broad enough to attract more than
hunters and fishermen, covering the
wholo field of wild life conservatldn and
recreation.
Tho counties In the western end of the
State also furnish the greater proportion
of tho hunter's license money, and the
men who are paying this want to seo tho
State establish "protected areas" if nec
essary on leased lands in large areas to
which all hunters will have access. In
the centres of these large areas the game
can be propagated by the Game Commis
sion for restocking the, covers about and
planting In other sections whero the game
Is depleted.
