JUBILANT YANIGAN BALL SQUAD
TO BE CONSPICUOUSLY ABSENT
DURING HECTIC PERIOD OF WAR
Youngsters' Joyriding During Exhibition Pe

TUST as the society world put the war niufjlti on the buddlns debutante

Tanlgun ecuad thit for inniiv ears Iuh Kieatlv enjojed the spilng
lurk of breezing through Dixie, Inhaling the balmy climate and espeil
enctnp the novelty ot Incipient big league ball. Sevctal major league
managers nlready hae form.illj iiiled against the second tiring touring
outfit the coming season and other may be expected to follow stilt
Economy both of plajeis nnd geneial expenses makes the change a
necessity.
Ono reason hack ot the second stilus JiinKctlng ti!n was that thec
teams r-enetally furnished n bettei leUllvo aitlcle of ball against tin
Dixie minors than the legulnr intuds, and In tonseiiuenco diew well
One set ot fans, of ooiusf, nlvv.iva wants to see the stars of the game
lit action and will p. foi the privilege of loolslng them over. Othcis
however, prefer to see a ball earner and the big league debutante out
fits, full of pepper and ambitious kids, alvvavs go In for a regular game
They are not conserving thelt arm and their legs, and all the time aio
trying to demonstrate to the management that they lue the good
Then, too, the home teams huo a chance of slipping ocr an occasional
game on the Vunlgau outfit, and small town home folKs do love to
xee the home town cievv take the meaure of a big league bunch no mat
'r whether It carries a sccotidatj title 01 not.
Another leaou lij the legulai big league seiuad falls to find uni
versal faor In exhibition game 1 that the fin become gunsh' and
stay away after going u few time to see advertised star whoso prc
ence In the game 1 announced but who do not appear. Peveral big
league manageis. have como to lealie the poor business of putting deals
of this kind over on the public thiough the newspapers and hae dropped
the policy of making sure announcement planneil to attract the populace
GUNKUAL indication arc that the average spline tiAlnlng outfit
this season will be Just about the size of the main pirt ot the
show In ordlnarj time during the last eerat season
Guy on'x Pastiming in Dixie Football Has a Reason
rpiIE presence of Joe litivon, the ne.uest succcsor to Jim Thoipo for the
- all-round athletic ability title, in a southern college football unltoini ha
caused much comment, l'or a plajcr clasi-cd a All-American In football
to disappear completed fiom iew nnd show up down South In a uniform
representing a college whose name wa not even familial outside of Its
immediate, section was a peculiar clicumxtance I'urther instetj wa
added, due to the fact that tiuon'i home i in Minnesota.
The lnldc of the stor. offer both i-eiithneiitul and practical feature
Gujon is the ounser brother of Ch-iiley VA'.ihoo, who pteceded him at Cai
llsle and was a baseball pla.ver of some note, catching on the varsity and
subsequently plalng some minor league ball Charley Walioo some 'ears
back, hied him to Atlanta as lepresentntUe ot a well-known spoiling Roods
house and capitalized his own athletic reputation foi some years, augmenting-
same by officiating In football game He soon needed u. brand new
publicity card, however, and hi ounger brother did the rest Joe Gujon
wished to stud engineering anj how and now is a second e.n man at
the Georgia school. Of neceslt he attended Kcew hatter Academ
during the season of 1915-1916 and passed hi entiance requliemcnts i
In icw of the premise. It doe not lequlie an deep logic to see Jut
how the combination of circumstance- vvoihed out and how fortunate
the southern Institution lias been In landing the countrj'n generally
admitted best football plavci as well as doubtless Its best all-tound
athletic performer
A8 I'VIDENCK ot Jut how good a. baeball plajer Gii.vuii 1, it
A is known that Connie Hack tried to sign him wh"ii he was at
Carlisle. An aggravating fcaturo to this story is that Connie
saw him lam out a couple of home tuns In a game the day fol
lowing the rejection ot a contiact.
Wise Fans Croaked,
A I'liATClt gencrall branded bv the wise jncs as lacking big Iragut--"-caliber,
the Impression being stiengthencd b several big league mana
gers, but who aftei aiicd meandering nnd vicissitudes won a place with the
National J-eaguo champion, plijed ,ood ball and got in'Ido the woild
seflea dough last eai. Is Joe Wilhoit lescued bv .McfJraw a he wa hang
ing to the ropes at the Jumping- off place in Hmokcton u
When Wilhoit came to the big ring from the Vernon team on the coast
critics and plajers joined the manageis out there In wondering why. He
could hit a ball and he could run after he got started, but he was declared
fearfully shy of the inside stuff. As to leal head work he wa classed as
minus and his fielding was pronounced accidental onlj It was agreed that
he didn't know how to play batter cu how to i un bases or how to give
signals or catch them Ills pursuit of a fiv ball wa likened to that ot a
flamingo flapping its wuv meirllj to uonheie in patticulai.
Stalling was tho guy to take thr- long chance Aftei moie than a
year's try he concluded that Wilhoit wa a fllvvei, and could find nobodj
willing to relieve him of his white elephant but the sinking riiates The
were willing to take a chance on anbod While ct technical! Inside the
big tent, Wilhoit dldn t lit even In the scrambled Smoketown crew and in
due season the usual waivers were formally requested. This wa Just like .
Jumping out of a sewei Into a hothouse for McOraw Insisted Wilhoit was
good. enough for his league leaders and the gangling gatdener dellveied the
goods. He plajed well In a Giant uniform in all departments of the pastime.
WILHOIT may be merely a luck gu, and at the same time there
may be some psjcholosy stuff in his career. Ma be all he
needed temperamentally wa to get with n winning team and gain
confidence. Possibly the Idea of pulling down some real money alo
helped turn the tide.
Ancient Boxman Proposes to Stage Comeback
rpHB hectic little diama entitled, '-They .Vever Come Hack. I Don't Think,"
A so successfully staged by that sterling male Ilcrnhardt, Napoleon Lajole,
followed by the announcement of certain big league manageis that next
season would be an old man's da, has levlved ambition and hope In a
Veteran twlrler, who announces readiness to lake his tuin again and offeis
any manager as references Cy Young Kill I-ange and Amos Ittuie
The budding comeback is none othei than old Jack Powell who used
to bend them over In neuily all leagues except the 20 Ono under the sa.
Jack has been running a modest thirst empoilum In St. Louis, but has
been dofllng the apron regularly when a ball game was on In the Browns'
park hard b his business location and aas he 1 acquainted with all the
pla-lnff wrinkles Introduced since his da. A little later on the veteran
aspirant states that he will go to Hot Spring Ark. sUit mountain climb
ing and drinking the wateis and will be ready to pitch a double-header in
no time. He states that the only reason ho quit the game anyhow was that
a alight fatty accumulation Interfered with his fielding bunts, but that as
this obstruction will be removed Jiy shinning up hills and absorbing strong
-waters, he will be fit. for the fastest society again, and ho has no doubt
that he will be eagerly grabbed by some astute big league manager.
POWELL now Is fort -four eais old or uung. He has been all
through one baseball cureer and sus he can't help feeling that
he now is superior to the average kid who breaks Into the game
and that he has another baseball future. He further declares that
the kids ought to be In the war, an how
i McGraw Signs Team and Goes on Golf Vacation
TT7HII.B other big league managers ate sweating over contiact and deals,
VV Jtuggsy McGraw has received vhtually all his contracts, Is not thlnklnr
any more of deals and has hied him to Cuba for a month of golf, accom
panied by Germany Schaefer. Under the circumstances it would seem not
necessary for the Giant manager to take an) body along to make him laugh.
, Reports have It that McGraw failed to hold to an agreement among club
managers Tegatdlng time of sending out contracts as well as observing
certain Informally agreed war conditions affecting salaries. In any event,
big contracts went out the first of the ear as usual and he had the bulk
ot his outfit rounded up befoye other managers started. He now has no
fewer than sixteen contracts safely In the office safe, and it Is said that the
few outstanding ones offer no serious possibilities. It would seem altogether
Vkely that there must have been something more than an early atart to
get such substantial results. In any event, Muggsy Is off to the southern
ilfc for a little of the dolce far nlente and the rest of the moguls are enjo
inx nice little vacations trjlnc to make the bo- satisfied with less pa
