CONFIDENCE WITHOUT
ABILITY ISA "BUSTl
('WORST FIRST BASEMAN. IN WORLD"
BECOMES A STAR IN ONE SEASON
B Y REFUSING TO LOSE CONFIDENCE
UViIF' IIAVn a M"" ha,t c,uh" a", ihe Whi,c Sos
W manager, "with the etception of first base. That
Is our tccakeit spot, and if tec could pet a good man to
fill the position we'd have a good chance to icin the pen
nant." From au Interview published in 1010.
"One of ihe luckiest moves tee made this year," said
the manager of the St. Louis Cards, "teas tchen tee pur-
' ehasd Jacques Foumier from Los Angctcs. Fournicr 11
a great first baseman and has helped make our ball club,"
From nn interview with Branch Uickey yesterday.
Jacques Fournicr was the principal figure In both
Interviews. Hack In the old dns, meaning from 1012
to 1017, lie was considered the worst first baseman In
the world. Every
time the White
Sox rame to town
the initial packer
would be given
the lusty raws
berry by the mob,
not became h c
wnsnbura player,
but because every
body thought he
was. No matter
how brilliantly
Jacques played, he
never received
credit. The play
ers on his own
club and the fans
were so sure he
was a mistake
thnt everything
he did was con
sidcred wrong.
Despite this,
however, Fournicr
managed to stay
with the Sox
intll June. 1017.
when he was sent
to Los Angeles
JACQl'KS FOUHNIKU $ d, '
wanted him because nil manager had tho same idea he
was n good bitter, but the worst first baseman in the
world.
The only person who questioned this wns Foumier
himself. He stood the jibes iiml jeers, of the crowd,
listened to the duily panning hnnded out by his manager,
worked harder to improve himself and became convinced
everybody bad the wrong dope. He was a GOOD first
baseman and would prove it. No player ever worked
under such n handicap, nnd it took lots of nerve and a
stout heart to keep from going to pieces and quitting the
game for good.
Foumier was unfortunate at the start. Ho -wns pur
chased by tho White Sox from Moose Jnw, Canada, and
was considered a prcttj fnir catcher. However, the Sox
had Hilly Sullivan nnd Jimmy Block at that time, and
after a brief trial at first base he was sent to Montreal
for the remainder of the season.
VJE CAME lack in 10 IS and started at first base,
I Jacques teas not at all graceful, fell all over
himself tchen fielding ground balls and shoved his
inexperience at the bag. Jits hitting, however, kept
him on the team until 7.17, ichen he teas chased
to the minors.
Rickey s Clever Deal
LAST winter Branch Uickey wns up against it for a first
baseman None was available in the big bhow, so he
looked up tho talent in the minors. After n careful study
of the records and receiving some reports from his friends
Jtt" thn minor Ipnirncs. ho Icnrnprl thnt Fnnrnler hnH Im.
B4 'proved wonderfully and was as good if not better than
KRftf tne majority of hrst basemen in the major leagues. Wade
Jvillefer, manager of I.os Angeles, had taught tho big
Frenchman a lot of new stuff and he was rioc for a come
back. Then Rickey put over n verv clever deal, in which he
outwitted the Chicago Pubs and grabbed tho athlete from
under their noses. Tho Cubs wanted Fournicr, and Wade
Killefer left I.os Angeles for Chicago to put tho deal
through. Bickey learned of this, nnd when tho train
Stopped at St. Louis he prevailed upon Killefer to stav
ovor a short time and discuss politics, the weather and
things like that.
Itiekey wanted Fournlor. Ho was positive of that
By ROBERT W MAXWELL
Sports Editor Evening rublte &ttt
But he knew ho wouldn't have a Chinaman's chance if
he tried to offer more money than tho Cubs, for that
couldn't be done. Therefore, when Killefer nrrlvcd at
the office of the Cards, Branch asked If Jacques was on
the market.
"Ccrtaluly," replied the westerner.
"What do you want," asked Rickey, "money or
players?"
"Players," was the short reply. "1 need 'era, and
need 'em badly."
"Then we can do business." retorted Rickey. "Wrlto
out a list of the men you need and I will gt them for
you."
Killefer took out his carpenter's pencil nnd wrote six
names on n slip of paper. Tossing It across tho desk
he said :
"Get me any four of that half dozen and the deal
rocs through." .
Grovcr Hartley, the Columbus catcher,, wns tho first
name. Rickey called Columbus on the long-distance phono
and purchased tho player.
Then Kansas City, Portland, Ore., Sacrnmento and
Scattlo were called in order nnd players purchased with
alarming rapidity.
"Here jou are," said Rickey n few hours later. "I
have secured Hartley, tho cntcher, from Columbus; Mc
Couley, the shortstop, from Kaunas City ; Lefty Thomas,
the pitcher, from Seattle, and Griggs, the first baseman,
from Sacramento. I now will take Fournicr off your
hands."
THAT GUILTIEST FEELING
T COST $400 in phone bilh to put the deal
through, but Branch was not stung. He pot a
good ball player icho is hitting .308, has stolen
eleven bases and hasn't made an error in four
icccks. Also Fournicr staged a icondrrful come
back, which shows tchat a man can do if he retains
confidence in himself.
Casey Stengel Saves Game
CASCY STENGEL stole a ball gumc from the St. Louis
Cards yesterday when he perpetrated n sensational
wall-climbing net in the ninth inning, spenrcd a terrific
liner which had bounced off the bat of Jacques Tournlcr
and retired the side when two runners were on base,
eager, anxious nnd willing to run aiound tho bases with
a couple of runs which would 1ihv made the advantage
gained by the Phils look like last year's straw hat.
The result of this aerial feat : the Phils copped the
ball game by the score of 1 to 0, added another victory
to their already small list and busted the winning streak
of tho Cards In several vulnorablo spots. Up to yester
day the Rickeys had won seven in n row nnd were pre
pared to. make the list of victories look healthier than
that But therp's many n slip and Stengel didn't slip
in the ninth.
Cecil Algernon Causey held the Cnrds to three measly
bingles up to the ninth, nnd in thnt frame retired the
hrst two batters with little difficulty.
.
T7A.W Altlton Stock-reached out and plastered a
nnqlc to tight. Hornsby did the same, and
trtth those two noble athletes roosting nn first and
second Foumier stepped up.
Here's Hotv It Happened
CAUSEY tried hard to biiffle the big Frenchman and
managed to get himself In a hole, with tho count of
three and two. When the deciding ball was delivered
the runners started nnd Jncquos swung.
Ho hit the ball right on the nose and sent it on a lino
to right field. Stengel ran back, but it didn't seem as if
he could get there in time. When he reached the wall
Casey leaped in the air, stuck up his gloved hand and
the ball stuck there.
It was the most sensational catch ever made in right
field, but it took something like that to win the game
Bill Doak pitched great ball for the Cards, holding
Cravath's men to three hits in seven innings. He made
but one mistake, nnd that was when he accidentally
grooved one for Tragressor In the third nnd Walter socked
it into the left field bleachers for the only run of the after
noon. Doak was taken out to make way for a pinch
hitter In the eighth nnd Lou North, the Milwaukee re
cruit, finished. Lou looked good.
t
Tiro jnmc will be played this afternoon for one
tear tax. Meadoics and Smith will twirl for
the Phils, but Rickey doesn't know who icill per
form for his club.

Confidence vs. Success
A DAY or so ago n group of sportive
analysts becamo Involved in a seri
ous discussion.
The point nt stake wns this:
Docs confidence pare the way to suc
cess, or Is It success that develops con
fidence? Are not , Walter Hngen and nabo
Ruth extremely confident typea because
they know they have the ability to make
good?
Proper confidcuco Is first based upon
ability to make good. There arc any
number of entries who havo confidence
minus ability, nnd they are always
terrible busts.
We have seen a number of confident
coves who had little else, nnd what
happened to thera was quite enough.
It is confidence plus ability that
makes for success. Thero nre n few oc
casions when success comes without
confidence nnd In turn develops con
fidence, but these examples are not as
frequent as tho reverse type.
Types and Examples
TY COBB was n confident, aggres
sive bnll player when he was In the
South Atlantic League, n matter of six
teen stcniny summers ago.
Cobb' had confidence plus ability.
Babe nutli required no "boast of
heraldry or pomp of power" to get his
confidence working.
Shortly after enlisting In the chorus
of the Sonata of Swat be discovered,
quite abruptly, that he could cither
crash the old apple or paste the old pill.
Success and confidence (n n way work
together. Each helps out the other.
Confidence helps to develop bucccss
nnd success in turn helps to increase
one's confidence.

r WINNING, two
twcnty-hole-or-more
Inside of four days of thirty-six-hole
piny, whilst playing in nationally
fumed fields, is not a record, then you
will have to scrape over n lot of statis
tics to find a better.
And if you add to this a sixty-nine
at tho other end of thirty 6ix -holes
medal play the fifth day, which broke n
course record, you surely make it
unanimous.
"But that's nothing." suid W. II.
Gardner, Buffalo Country Club, hero
of tho nbovc. "I think tho record long
dlatnncc one-round match was mine
against Willie Itcekic. Seemed like we
played golf for a week. I finnlly won
on tho twenty -fifth bole. Personally.
I think that was the toughest struggle
I ever mnde."
That match was played nt Schnec
tady. N. Y.
Somewhere in the figures there may
be a match to beat that number of
extra holes in the first flight of n big
tourney, but none of the star players
who have plajcd in the Philadelphia
district nnd were questioned wns able
to recall one such.
Gardner is now styled the "monarch
of marathon match-players."
On Tuesday, after he had broken
both the course record and tho Lynne
wood Hall thlrty-slx-qunlifyiug record
with his 347 the day before, tho stocky
Gardner took Mas Marston to the
twenty-first hole just to show the ex
nutional semlfinalist a birdie nnd win
tho match.
The next morning he lost to J. S.
Dean, Princeton's golf captain, on the
twentieth bole,
No Match
On Thursday Gardner had uo match,
unfortunately for his record, but he
boosted his percentage jesterduy morn
ing when he went to tve cntioth In
the first rouud of the WiIt ingtou Coun
try Club invitatiou tournament.
'Here ho just missed a two but won
the hole, aujhovv. nnd the match against
fipfirirc V. Ilotan. five times chamnion
of Texas and winner this week for the
second time of the Lynncwood Hnll
Cup. Ilotan was also the medalist for
the qualifying round at Wilmington.
Gardner should be welcomed by the
town band when he gets back to Ituffalo.
nnd the mnyor should present him with
u properly Indented bronze plaque. The
mayor would if lie were a golfer.
The fans suffered n sevcic shock when
tho two main favorites to win the tour
nament were both eliminated in the fiist
round yestcruuy morning. Hotan was
the first to topple. Inasmuch as he
had won the Lynncwood Hall Cup on
Wednesday, he wah high mau in favor
nt Wilmington. Drnn had been the
'finalist nt Huntingdon nlle.v . and It
1 was, therefoie. figured since thev vero
'-' in opposite brackets nt Wilmington thnt
' I down the river it would be the same
story in the final.
1 ' Gardner carried Dean to twenty holes
1 ' in their semifinal match at Huntingdon
. Valley, but when Ilotau imiWhcd hi.s
' cord he had made in the other brocket
'. the same morning with Dean's he found
McNIULrCK
be would have
J
beaten the Princettil
leader. 4 and 6. That, straanul
enough, was exactly the count iu till
afternoon. Therefore. Ilotan wns
pectcd to beat Gnrdaer rather handily
down there on the Delaware jeMcrdif.
Hut Gardner putted elegantly id
topped that off with well-nigh perfect
approach shots, a combination tnat no-
ton could not beat.
