HAL CHASE
After many years, ever since Hal
Chose suddenly whizzed on the base
ball horizon with Clark Griffith, as
manager of the Yanks, the city of
New York is to see the cranky prod
igy playing with the Giants. lie
I has been exchanged for First Base
man Holke and Catcher "Bil" Rari
dan, of Cincinnati. Moran, of the
latter club, now has two good first
sackers, Holke and Jake Daubort;
but McGraw has the infield wonder,
and all who know McGtaw believe
he will have the start of a flag
winner with Chase.
McGraw believes in winning the
flag down South while training. He
says: "The public seems to have
Altoona Does and Does

From Capital City
"Jlarrisburg never did have a
I hankering for booking teams
j which are liable to hand the home
| club a trimming."
| This was the line in an Al
i toona paper which riled athletic
j managers In Harrisburg, who
j read further in Altoona sheets
that the Mo'untain City was ready
I to put up battle with any who
! would answer from here. The
1 first to demand cards bn the table
j was Gordon Ford, of thoTnde
pendents, who wroto to E. P.
Sarvls, of the Altoona Big Five
tfho asserts that he has a world
beating club, and offered March
8 for a game on the Chestnut
street floor. Ford could not get
to the wire quickly enough and
he had the luck of making a date
for that time. "Manager Sar
i vis," said he to-day, "will there
j fore have the chance on March
8 to prove he has a world-beat
ing club."
The Central High Informals
were less fortunate In getting a
rise. Manager Carl Stoner had
j things arranged to play Altoona
j Scholastics but at the last mo
j mcnt they had an excuse.

Nuggets From M'G raw's
Spring Training Story
Spring training is of more importance in winning a pennant than
any other factor.
The climate is of first importance in selecting a training camp.
Indoor training in baseball is of no value whatever.
I attribute our consistent success to the excellent weather condi
tions that we found at Marlin.
If our players had not known how to slide the Giants would have
been crippled and we would not have won.
The public seems to have a mistaken idea that spring training
consists of drilling the players into certain plays. The main idea is
to get them in physical condition to stand a grind of six months.
I always take at least seven weeks for this work, for 1 don't believe
that a man can be trained in less time than that to last six months.
In Marlin I found that the hot water baths following hard work
outs do more for score muscles than all the liniments in the world.
Another mistaken idea of the public ik that the training consists
of giving the players certain kinds of food and putting them through
certain athletic stunts. I do nothing of the kind. The idea for them
is to live naturally.
Players often tire of their work on the diamond. That is why I
have introduced such pastimes as tennis, handball, pushball, etc.
I have found the only way to get results in training is to be sys
tematic. 1 work the men two hours every morning and two hours
every afternoon.
Social polish Is a big help in making a club win. as it develops
personal pride in the. inen and makes tt)em want to be at the top.
For that reason I always encourage the youngsters to take part In
the local dances that, are given every week.
a mistaken Idea that spring train
ing consists of drilling the players
Into certain plays. That is merely
incidental. Tho main idea is to get
them in physical condition to stand
a grind of six months. I always
take at least seven weeks for this
work, for I don't believe that a man
can be trained in less time than that
to last six months. The work has
to be done gradually. Lame legs
and arms must be straightened out
and the batters must get their eyes
accustomed to the sharp breaks of
curve balls. This takes time.
Players Tnkc, (are of Themselves
"Another mistaken idea of the
public is that training consist of
giving the players certain kinds of
food and putting them through cer
tain athletic stunts. I do nothing
of the kind. The players are sup
posed to take caro of themselves.
They are allowed to eat what they
please. If they suffer from it, It is
their own fault, and they quickly
realize it. I do not stop them from
smoking or any other little habits
tlfat they may have taken up. In
other words, the idea is for them to
live naturally and develop physical
ly at the same time. ' The ball play
er must live through six months of
hard playing, and if he does not do
it naturally it will be a hardship
that he cannot stand. The prize
fighter or the player trains
for a certain and when
that Is over they can go back to their
natural style of living. But the ball
player' must keep up his work for
six or seven months. He has to be
fitted for that just the same as a
man in any other line of business.
"I find in spring training that tho
players often tire of their work on
the diamond. That is why I have
introduced such pastimes as tennis,
handball, pushball, etc. It takes thei
mind off baseball and keeps the
players at work at the same time.'
"It is never necessary to do much
instructing with the veteran ball
players. They know what to do, as
a rule, and the thing is to get them
in condition to do it. With the
youngsters it is different. They
have to he tried out in many ways
so as to see what real ability they
possess. The best way to do this is
to gel tl'cni into a practice game and
they will show what they can do
unconsciously. Often a youngster
will be very nervous at the start, and
to put him at his ease I have to
place him in a position where ho Is
not expecting criticism. The first
thing 1 look for in a young ball
player is speed. If he is slow, there
is little use of his starting, unless
he happens to be a catcher or pitch
er. Speed counts more than every
thing else in baseball. It is the dif
ference between the big leaguer and
the minor. After looking at a
youngster's speed, the next thing is
his temperament. Quick thinkers
are born and not made.
"I have found that the only way
to get results in training is to be
systematic. I work the men two
hours every morning and two hours
in the afternoon. I work just as
hard as they do. It is pretty hard
on me at first, but I know that I
| have got to show a willingness to
i <lo anything that I would ask the
j players to do. I am not as young
las some of these recruits and it
j comes hard at times, but I get re
| suits from it because the youngsters
; arc ashamed not to stick as long as
1 do. At that, I rather enjoy the
training, for it always puts me In
good physical condition, whether I
play or not. I like to play base
ball. and'l always play in the prac
