;-: EXCHANGE OP WILLIAMS FOR GROBf WOULD HAVE STRENGTHENED CUBS, SAYS JOE TINKEI
w
TINKER EXPLAINS' REASON
' FOR PLACING SENSATIONAL
"CY" WILLIAMS ON MARKET
New Cub Leader Declares Trade Which Would
Have Strengthened Team Was Arranged,
but Negotiations Fell Flat
JOB TINKER 1ms at Inst explained his nctlon In placing Cy Wllllruna, the
sensational young outfielder, on tlio mnrkct n fow weeks npo. At tlio recent
' meeting: of the National League In Now York, Tinker told tlio KvnsiNO lJ-.minit
representative) that a trado which would have benefited the Cubs greatly had
virtually been closed until tlio agitation raised convinced nil parties concerned
that It was best to call negotiations off.
Tlio new Cub leader says ho believes tlint the trade, had It not been
blocked, would probably liavo mndo his team a heavy favorite. In tlio National
League race. Charley Herzog, with whom tlio trado was being put over,
admitted also that Tinker was not trying to nllbl himself In making his ex
planation, and thnt It would havo been a great deal for both parties, but that
ho would not consider It now.
Tho trado was an oven exchnngo of Williams for Heinle Qroh, of tho nods.
At tho time Groh had threatened to quit tho Iteds becauso certain parties
had misrepresented remarks mado by Herzog concerning tho brilliant llttlo ln
flelder. As can bo easily seen by Tinker's explanation at tho tlmo tho deal was
almost closed, It would havo been an excellent thing for both teams,
Tinker Knew Williams Was a Star
"I havo been panned all over the country nnd In your columns, too, be
causo I havo had clippings sent to mo: but I was perfectly Justified In putting
Williams on tho market." said Tinker. "I did not exercise fliinp Judgment
on Williams, becauso I know ho Is a wonderful ball player, but I bad a trado
virtually nrranged with tho Iteds which would havo given mo Heinle Groh.
"Perhaps snmo pcoplo may think I would havo gotten tho worst of tlio
trade, but I'll show why I was right, desplto tho protests of tlio fans. You
fellows who havo not scon much of tho Federal Leaguers underestimate) tno
ability of many of tho best players wo had. With tho consolidation of tho. Cubs
nnd Whales, I was loft with six high-class outfielders, but my inlleld material
was not as strong as I knew It must bo If I was to flguro In tho National
League, race.
"Just at that time, It was believed that Heinle Groh would bo placed on
tho market by tho Cincinnati Club, and I mado up my mind that ho w- tho In
flelder I needed. I knew It was useless to offer one of my Federal League out
fielders for Groh, becauso It would be turned down. I also realized thnt It
would bo Just as foolish to expect tho Keels to glvo up Groh for a veteran llko
Schultc, Good or Murray.
Infield Strength Needed More Than Outfield Material
"Now hero Is tho way I reasoned. I had a wealth of outfield material,
becauso I know that Zwllllng, Flack nnd Mann, of tlio Feds, are capable of
holding their own In any lcaguu and that old rcllnblo Schulto Is nlso a great
ball player. Thcrcforo I needed an Inflcldor more than an outfielder and mado
up my mind I could sparo even Williams to strengthen the Inner works, which
I consider more essential to a ball tenm.
"Groh would have fitted In wonderfully In our Infield, and thnt Is why I was
willing to sacrlflco Williams to get him. I placed Williams' namo on tho market
as a feeler, becauso If somo other team could offer something better I was
willing to listen to a proposition for tho tlmo being at least, but Groli was
the man I wanted.
"Thcro was quito a lot of agitation raised at tho time, but that did not
prevent mo from carrying out my original plan. Herzog tnlkcd with Groh and
soon convinced Heinlo that ho had no grievance, so it was only natural that
tho ltcds did not want to go" through with a. trade. Tho great weakness of tho
ltcds Inst season. Judging by tho Information I received, also was In the Infield.
Naturally Herzog did not want to weaken his tenm as long as It was not neces
sary to part with Groh for the sako of harmony.
Coming of Ycrkcs Made Deal Unnecessary
"I had my lines out for several Inflelders nnd when I landed Steve Ycrkcs,
decided that I did not wnnt to go through with any trade. Ycrkcs Is a better
ball player than ho has ever received credit for being nnd I nm convinced he
Will fill tho bill. If he can't como through and my aim is in good shape, I can
easily switch Doolan over to second and cover short myself.
"Perhaps I could havo dodged a panning by using a different method In
making tho trade, but I stilt ihlnk I was absolutely right nnd would do the
Bamo thing again. I am out ,to develop a winner nnd must rise or fall on my
record. Thereforo I fell justified In doing anything which I think Is going
to strengthen my team. It might havo looked liko a 'boner,' but It would
havo been quite a good ono for my team if I had gotten awny with It."
International League May Make Serious Mistake
If report from New York aro correct, tho International League has mado a
secret ruling thnt a salary limit of $250 a month will bo observed by all owners
In tho future. It Is hard to believe that a Class AA minor league would tako
such a drastic step, oven In these days of salary cuts and retrenchment.
Before enforcing such a rulo tho International League magnates should
consider conditions. Tho league was hit harder by the Federal Leaguo than nil
other minor organizations, ono of tho main reasons why Harrow's circuit was hit
hard being that it had more good ball players who were being underpaid
than any other league of its size.
It Is Impossible for a Class AA leaguo to operate under such a smnll salary
limit. Tho towns of thnt circuit havo been educated to an excellent brand of
baseball, nnd such cannot bo provided nt thnt salary limit, when tho Pacific
Coast Leaguo and American Association aro paying twice that amount.
Becker's Release Was Rather Expected
The release of Deals Becker proved conclusively that Manager Mornn, of
tho Phillies, has great confidence that either Wilbur Good or Josh Dovoro will
prove a valuable addition to tho champions. It Is certain that Moran will carry n
left-handed hitting outfielder, nnd with Becker gone there Is room for Good
or Devore.
Becker's release may create surprise in somo quarters, as a bard hitter Is
generally missed, particularly by fans who love to see a clubber who Is likely
to whale tho ball out of the lot at any time. But Moran made no mistake.
Becker always was an overrated player. Aside from his clubbing ability, he
was a poor fielder, because ho failed to play batsmen properly, and a mlstrabla
base runner for a fast man.
"Strangler" Lewis a Great Believer in Psychology
"Strangler" Lewis, who Is slated to meet Joo Steelier, tho Nebraska wrestling
marvel, is a great believer In psychology. IIo attributes much of his success in
the wrestling game to tho fact that he has successfully Introduced mind control
Into tho sport. Lewis Is an odd individual, Ono would never suspect by tho
wrestling monicker ho has adopted that Lewis Is a college graduate and a
treat student. Lewis graduated from tho Kentucky Stato University a few
years ago and was one of the greatest and most popular athletes ever graduated
from that institution. If Lewis really attributes a large percentage of his suc
cess to psychology, wo are afraid tho "Strangler" Is likely to learn that he
needs more than that against Steelier.
Mahan Still Thinks He AVill Coach California
A dlqpatch from Cambridge yestfc day stated that Eddie Mahan, the brilliant
captain of the Crimson eloven, had accepted terms to act as head coach of the
"University of California team for next fall, but that Mahan refused to an
nounce his appointment until after he graduates from Harvard In Juno. Evi
dently, Mahan has not heard that Andy Smith was finally selected for the posi
tion and Is In San Francisco at the present time. Smith was given a great re
ception on the coast, and will have absolute charge of the eleven, with no as
sistants to hamper him,
Two of the great surprises of tho collegiate basketball season occurred
Saturday night, when Swarthmoro and "West Point were outclassed by Princeton
and Pittsburgh. The defeat of tho Army was rather expected, but few critics
looked for such an easy victory for Pitt, After Its splendid work throughout
the season, Swarthmore's defeat was surely unexpected, even though the game
was played on tho Tigers' floor.
The veteran Billy Berger, always a willing and hustling middleweight, tried
to coma back, last night In Pittsburgh, but was badly beaten by Leo IIouclc.

HARVARD BALL
SQUAD STARTS
DRILLTHJS WEEK
Fred Mitchell, of Braves,
Will Coach Crimson
1916 Candidates
NED MAHAN IN OUTFIELD
CAMIWIDCSE, Mass., Felr. 11. The Har
vard baseball season will start Wednes
day, when Captain Nnsh and Coach
Mitchell will call the battery candidates
to tho Soldiers' Field cage. Two weeks
later tho remainder of the squad will re
port, together with the freshman camll
uates. Tonight tlio players will gather
In the Harvnid Union, wheio the Baseball
Committee and tho coaches will outline
tho plan of campaign.
Harvard came tbroiiRh nicely last
spring after tho resignation of Its pro
fessional coach and when Percy Itnugh
ton. the new owner ot the Boston Braves,
Jumped into tho breach and pulled the
team through Its cliamplonslilp games
against both Yale and tho Tigers. It
was thought at the time that Haughton
would contlnuo both as baseball and foot
ball conch, but It was decided by the
Baseball Committee to adhere to the
policy of having a real professional. Ac
cordingly, the services of Kred Mitchell,
iho for several years was coach and
hnndy man of tho Boston Braves, wcio
gotten.
Mitchell never has done any collego
coaching, hut was successful In bringing
through the Boston battorles two years
ago, and also is ctedlted by Stnlllngs with
being lesponslble for the fighting spirit
shown by tlio teum.
Good Battery Man
Mitchell starts out with a good array
of battery material at Harvard. Hnrte, to
bo sure, Is the only high-grade catcher,
but Knwrlght, the football player, is ex
pected to mako good, mid there Is also
Waterman, a very fair backstop, who
caught regularly for Harvard In 1911, and
who was tho first substitute Inst year.
As far ns pitchers go, Harvaid never bus
been so well off as this year.
Ned Mahan, tho standby ot tho staff
last season, will be out again, ns will Wil
cox, 'Whitney nnd Garritt, all of whom
did a lot of twirling last spring. Mahan
finally pitched the championship games,
but It Is n question whether he will not
play regularly In tho outfield this year.
He was In the lame every day last year,
cither ns pitcher or outfielder. Wilcox
showed much skill nt tho mlddlo of the
season, nnd Whitney should bo better
than last year.
Harvard's most prominent pitching can
didate, however, Is Billy Boles, who was
ineligible last season. Boles Is rangy and
strong, as was shown by his 'work with
tho football team last fall. He pitched
all last season to the Harvard batters, and
constantly had to be told by tho coach tn
allow tho boys to hit the ball. Ho Is a
risht-hander, and Is so good an all-round
ball player that he Is likely to bo used
tu the outfield when not pltlching in his
turn.
Gilman Star Pitcher
Captain Gilman, ot the football team
for next fall, pitched about half of tho
season In 1915 and then had to stop. Ho
will come out with tho others and will
make a fight to get a place on the regular
start. He was effective at Exeter severnl
years ago and later as tho freshman pitch
er at Harvard. Last season's freshman
pitcher was Hitchcock, whose older broth
er, Ilex Hitchcock, pitched for tho nlno
and played on the football team at Har
vard. He also la regarded as exception
ally good material.
Captain Nash has three veteran In
flelders, Including himself at first base,
the olheis being Abbot at second base
and Heed at shortstop. Last year Har
vard had no good third baseman, Hard
wick, who (ms been graduated, coming
Into the Inlleld at the last moment.
Coolidge, who filled In as outfield substi
tute and who hit for more than .300, will
bo out with the squad later.
