SCOUTS PASSING UP LEFT-HANDED HITTERS, PREFERRING FREE-SWINGING RIGHT-HAND
DANA. FILUNQIM, the spltball artist from Charleston, S. C, who wbb given
a IjrWi trial by the Athletics last season and returned to Charleston this Bprlng,
turn been purchased by Cleveland. This announcement comeB as a surprise, Man.
ager Mack having stated a few days before the Athletics left for the West that
he etlll had a string on the Southerner. Evidently Mack either overlooked some
thins; or canceled his optional agreement In order to allow the Charleston owners
to make the sale.
Or bis minor league record FJUlnglm should develop Into a star, and we are
Inclined to bellfjve that he did not show his true form here last year, He looked
much better Jn the Ave Innings he worked against tho Mackmen In Charleston
this spring than he did while here last fall. FJIllnglm has won 13 games and lost
only two this season. His victories Include a noh(t, a'one-hlt, three two-hit and
two three-hit games. He will Join Cleveland at the close of the first half of the
South Atlantic League season on June 20,
If any fan with gambling blooa In his veins and a lot of nerve had placed a
0 bet on the New York Giants the day they started on their winning streak and
parlayed his money he would have had Just J851.380 after,the Cllants had won
their 17th straight victory, but what an awful thing It would be if some one had
done this and had not stopped before the Phils broke the winning streak on

Jn their enthusiasm they are overlooking the fact that Ray Schalk, of the White
fkncj Frank. Snyder, of th,e Cardinals; BUI Klllefer, of the Phils; John Henry of
Washington, apd Steve Q'Nell, of Cleveland, are still n the game. 'Rarlden Is a
Mriy good catcher and no better. He is one of the many New York Players who
are batting above their normal speed. The .3JQ batting average, which Is 100
points above Blll'u average. Is the cause of the enthusiasm, and the awakening
probably will take, place In a few more weeks. warning
MAJOR LEAGUE MANAGERS ARE
LOOKING FOR RIGHT-HANDED
BATSMEN TO STOP SOUTHPAWS
Both Circuits, With American Leading, Are Over-
Joaded With Port-side Hitters Who Cannot Bat
Effectively Against Left-handers
TpIVB years ago there was a wild scramble among major lenguo managers for
X left-handed tatters, this condition being brouBht about by tho terrific hilling
of Ty Cobb, Joe Jackson, Trls Speaker, Eddie Collins, Frnnk Baker, Larry Doyle,
Jake Daubert and other lefthanded batterB, It was Juat n low years before thla
that the dopesters had reasoned out that n left-handed hitter had two steps
advantage In getting to first base and thoreforo got many hits on Infield grounders
on Which a man'-wlth the same speed, hlttlntr from the right sldo of tho plate,
Would bo thrown out.
For several years tho scouts brought In every fast left-handed batter thoy
could find with a ,300 minor league average. The result Is Apparent now. Tho
major leagues are overloaded with left-handed batsmen, while the clean, freo
tight-handed hitters who onco reigned supremo nntl drew the crowds to the gato
are a thing of tho past. There are still many In tho mnjor leagues, but tho
majority wore hero before tho left-handed crnzo seized tho managers.
Left-handed hitters with but few exceptions are troubled by southpaw
pitchers, but as good left-handed hurlera were scarce at that tlmo they enjoyed
great success. To stop the slugging of the left-handed batterB special attention
waa given to the development of southpaw pitching. While tho old guard nro
still the leading hitters. It Is noticeable that they do not hit so well against cer
tain clubs which havo a number of good southpaws.
Every American League team excepting the Athletics has (wo or more
good southpaw pitchers, whllo Boston has four, two being stars and two mediocre
performers. Boston's southpaw pitchers will put them In tho race, despite tho
fact that tho team has been weakened greatly by the loss of Trls Speaker.
The American Leaguo ha 37 regular players who are left-handed hitters, so it
la not hard to understand why Ruth, Leonard, Coumbe. Mogridgc, Culiop, Harper,
Covelesklo, Wcllman and a few other southpaws arc getting awny with their
'games.
Managers Are Passing Up Left-handed Hitters
fTIHE National League Is not so overstocked In this respect, but a manager
J. recently remarked to the writer, "Every tlmo I get n report of a youngster
Who is going good In a minor league I ask how ho hits. They are all left-handers
and I don't want them. I havo too many on my team now nnd would gladly
trade a couple for a good, free Bwlngcr from 'the right sldo of tho plate.
"Every youngster on the lots seomB to bo learning to hit left handed because
Cobb, Speaker, Jackson, Daubert and a few other great clubbers nro left-handers,
but tho whole Idea Is wrong. They Bay that left-handed hitters get dovvn to first
faster, but they forgot that you must hit the ball llrst and tho majorltv of the
mon swinging from tho near side of the plate can't oven touch a southpaw in a
pinch.
"The percentage of hltB beaten out because of tho left-handed advantage is
o Bmall that it Is not worth bothering about. Ball games nro not won on Infield
hits, although I will admit that thev holn m iim i .,i , nn i..
leaguers this year, but if the beat are left-handed hitters they can stay where
they are. Give me a right-handed hitter with the free swing nnd I'll take my
chance on that two-step advantager
i . 'i7h!!r0, nr t0 many KOd 80Utn!""Y Pitchers coming up to bother with
left-handed hitters. Mark my words, thoy have seen their day and as Cobb, etc.,
tart slipping there will not be any coming along to take their place. I ndvlso
tho boys on tho lots to hit natural."
As many other managers have expressed virtually the same thought In
,.CrW0l and,Beveral scouts who have been looking over collegians havo
passed upvgood left-handed hitters. It Is evident that the left-handed hitting
hi? r.?" . .uUrBe- There wl" be cePt,on8- bt " " " to predict that
the majority of the youngsters coming up will be right-handed hitters this year.
Yale Men Object to Melhod of Awarding Letter
A MEMBER of the Yale track team, who tolled for six months In hopes of
earnlnf ' varsity letter, wrote a letter to tho Tale News, protesting against
the present method of awarding the-Y." He claims that almost every dual meet
between Yale nnd Harvard and tho Intercollcglntes Is won on third places, and
that the present method of awarding tho varsity letter only to men who finish
erst or second has ruined track athletics at Yale.
He points out that men nro awarded tho varsity letter for playing one or
two minutes In tho Harvard or Princeton gome, when they have done no more tot
lale than the track candidate who has trained faithfully for bIx months. Just fall
ins any of the first or Becond place standard. In the same letter, Trainer Johnny
Mack Is quoted as saying ihat ho could not do the impossible win the Intercolle
glates with 60 candidates, whereas Cornell has 200.
a f.h!S ,j.."fr haa, created tult0 a lot of excitement among the undergraduates,
ana It Is likely that a new method of awardlnir the varsltv lt.r win h i -,.
Text year. Certainly the laiE football fiasco will not be repeated. Although the
Ells had such a poor team that even some of the first-string men did not do well
enough to deserve the honor of wearing a "Y," which in the past was a coveted
honor, almost three full team, were sent into the Harvard game In the last five
minutes, -Just to permit subs to win their letter.
All of this Is a reminder that the varsity letter Is passed around rather care
lessly at Penn, particularly for football. When Penn had Its greatest teams, the
varsity letter was not awarded to more than 18 men. Now It Is unusual if "6 or "8
are not rewarded eacl season.

Use of Assumed Names Causes Complications
TAST seasonLowell, of the New England League, uncovered a sensational young
J-l outfielder, who was known as Clarence Parker. This young man batted .327
and stole 25 bases In 30 games, and was looked upon as a marvel, but as he aud
denly disappeared he was not drafted, and his name appeared on the reserve list
of the Lpwell club. It appears that the youngster roturned to Dubuque College.
Iowa, but not without his whereabouts for the month being dlscoveied.
The discovery was made by a scout for the White Sox. who signed Parker to
a contract. Tho college doted a few days ago, and Parker Joined the White
Sox. As Boon as this news was flashed to the Lowell owners they decided to appeal
to the National Commission, as Parker is the propertybf that club, according to
baseball law.
Now comes the rumor that Parker was an assumed name, and that the
youngster was signed and reserved as Parker. It will be Interesting in nnn th n.
clslon made by the supreme court of baseball. Parker claims the contract is Illegal
because It was signed befoie he was of age, and that It was understood that he
was not subject to draft or reservation.
Eddie Collins, Andy Coakley and Lew Malone played under assumed names
while still In college. Two developed Into stars and the other mUy. Perhaps the
White Sox may have good luck with Parker if they are allowed to keep him
Which seems likely. i '

POUQItKCUPSIE, X. V.. June 0. Never
has there been such a weird season In col
lego rowing as the present one, and the end
tiromlnen mum- senentlnnn. In Hie first
place, Pennsylvania and Columbia got oft
lo tremendous starts: then, suddenly.
Princeton loomed largo on the horizon nnd
came within a few Bcant feet of rowing Us
wny to tho mythical championship by re
pented victories over every one until It ran
nfoul of one of C. 11 Courtney's master
pieces fit Ithaca aliout two weeks ago. Xo
one thought Cornell had a look-in, for tho
rumored absence of Courtney and the loss
of the Hnrvard raco a week earlier made
tha Tigers begin cheering over their all but
won honors.
Cornell's winning of that race shocked
tho I'oURlikoepsle crews as much ns It did
Dr. D. Spaeth, tho Princeton coach, a pupil
of our old friend nnd oarsman, II Ward,
lato coach of tho Quakers. But Courtney
hnd not been nslccp, In splto of a crnckod
skull.
Just to work on the nerves of his op
ponents, Courtney alo brought an eight to
this point which did not bent Princeton,
nnd he called It his Cornell Varsity. There
wasn't much need of bringing It nlong be
cause tho cievv which had licked Princeton
vtns Impressive enough. But just then the
conservative James Ten Uyck, coach of
Syracuse, launched hit boom for the chair
about to bo vnented by Courtney with a
solid delegation of wharf-wallopers, from
Duluth. "
Then one day Ten Kyek rowed this com
bination against the eight which had licked
Princeton. When the smoko caused by tho
Stetson to Piny Eastern Steel
Stetson will meet tho Eastern Steel nine on
tho Stetson A. A. grounds, 4th nnd Berks
