Ho , I decided to get rid of as many old-timers as possible, many of whom were hanging on by tholr records rather than by their ac complishments up to the minute He notified his scouts to look about for young men with a future, and decided to tut out the practice of buying players with a 'past but with small prospects ahead of them, which had been popular here during the Clark regime. The result has been that for a year the Pittsburgh team has lircri undergoing t almost complete reconstruction Thus far not much has been accomplished In the way of a showing in games won, but Drey fuss and Callahan feol that now they liavo the nucleus around which to build n team which will In time make a name for Itself.
