'WILD BILL' DONOVAN TO DO
SORE HURLING FOR YANKS
New Manager Expects to Call Upon
Himself tor Belief Work When New
Yorks Get Going—Will Always Be
on Coaching Line
New York. Jan. s.—Wild Bill Don
ovan, new leader of the Yankee forces,
does not intend to confine his energies
to managing the team from the bench,
fcuch was the declaration of the smil
ing one. who is here discussing eiub af
fairs with the new owners as the offi
cial beginning of his major league man
agerial career. When the seasou starts
Donovan will be in uniform daily and
lie expects to spend most of his time
on the coaching lines like Hughev .Jen
lings. But he also plans to get into
the game now and then, generally for
Tescue work.
"I got into the game a few times at
Providence last season."' said "Wild
Bill" yesterday, "and I am satisfied
that I am still able to do some real
pitching in the majors. I realize, of
«-ourse, that 1 could do no such work as
1 did a few years ago. but I guess a
few innings now and then -would not
be too much for me. 1 have quite a
little of that old speed left, and it
is only natural that I could handle a
difficult situation better than some of
the youngsters. Cv Young was several
\ears older than I am before he had
to admit that his days were over, and
you know I always took pretty good
1 are of that old pitching arm. I will
work out slowly this spring and whe'i
the real hot weather arrives I will be
ready to work whenever the occasion
demands it."
Donovan has not yet signed his con
tract to lead the Yanks, but he has
aureed upon terms and the document
will be signed to-day.
The question of a training camp
• ame up for discussion yesterday and it
would not be surprising if the team will
be taken to Savannah, Ga.. for condi
tioning purposes. Donovan favors this
piace. He took his Providence team
there last spring.
••Don't make any mistake about this
fellow Pipp," said "Wild Bill" in dis
cussing the players whom he will have
nnder his charge next season. "He is a
great ball player and I rather expeec
that he will be a regular with the
Yankees. I thought several times las*
-eason that he was serving his last year
in the minor leagues. He is a good
first baseman and. best of all. a heavy
hitter. It war in batting that the team
was particularly weak last season and

It will he recalled that this firm pro

which was and still is a remarkable

"High is another fine ball player,

He has not had the best chance to show
his real worth, as the wealth of outfield
talent at Detroit has kept him in the
background. But he did fine work last
sv a son when 'Tv' Cobb was out of the
game.
•'Of t"e players now with the
Yankees. I have been told by good
judges that two of .he new men. Cook
and Boone, are among the most promis
ing players in the American League.
Cook is a tine hitter and should improve.
Cree I know well, and there is no ques
tion about his being one of the fixtures
on the team. Peckinpaugh is another
star, ranking anions; the best in the
business at his position. I had plenty
of opportunity to size up Maise! when
he was with Baltimore in the Interna
tional League, and I know his capabili
ties well. Then we have another high
class infielder in Arragon.
•"1 am quite satisfied with the pitch
ing staff. I expect that we will have
Caldwell in line again. He is without
anv doubt one of the best pitchers in
the game to-day."
BASEBALL LIMIT RULE
Clubs Net Likely to Live Up to New
Regulation
The opinion is rapidly gaining ground
111 oaseball circles that the 21-player
rule in major leagues will never be se
riously enforced. This regulation would
require an enrollment somewhat along
the following lines: Pitchers, eight:
catchers, four; infielders. live: outfield
ers, four. At the beginning of the
1913 season the American League club
rosters contained the following number
of players: Athletics, 29; Washington.
23; Cleveland, 26; Boston, 25; Chicago.
31; Detroit. 30; New York, 23; St.
lx>uis. 29. The National League list
was about the same.
A number of the clubs require
strengthening before the opening of !
next season if they are to be drawing
card? and money-makers. Almost with
out exception these clubs has a large
percentage of their present squad under
contracts which cannot be ignored.
How they are to be relieved of those
players not wanted, and where desirable j
and sea?oned new material is to be se
cured and carried under the 21-player
rule, is something that is keeping man
agers awake these nights.

NEW YOUK LIKES LOBERI
Call Hira Best Third Baseman Playing
Ball—Demaree, Stock and
Adams Traded
Now York, .Jan. s.—Manager .John
McGraw. of the New York Nationals,
has obtained the services of Hans Lo
bert. thir l baseman of the Philadelphia
Nationals, through a deal which was
closed yesterday. The deal w«s virtual
ly completed here Sunday at a confer
ence between McGraw and President
Baker, of the Philadelphia club. It
was state! last night that Lobert had
accepted terms made by McGraw. It
was understood that the third baseman
would sign a three-year contract.
Lobert has been called one of the
best third basemen in the g iine. Phila
delphia secured him in 1910 from Cin
cinnati. McGraw last expressed
the opinion that Lobert would put his
team back in the running for the pen
nant.
Ever since last faW Lobert has been
on the fen e between organized base
ball and the Federal League. He re
cently vifital the Federal League of
ticij.s in St. Louis and later called on
President Gilmore, in Chicago. How
ever Lobert said that if l ie were trail
ed to New ork and receive ! the same
salary offered by the Federals, he would
remain in organized baseball. Mike
Doolan, shortstop of the Baltimore
federals, who played beside Lobert for
years 011 the Philadelphia infield, and
Lee Magee, manager of the Brooklvn
Federals, visited Lobert here yesterday
and tried to persuade him to accept the
Federal League offer.
Demaree came to New York from
Mobile late'in 1912. In 1913 he did
sensational work, but he had a poor
saason last year. .Stock tirst came to the
Giants from Fon-du-Lav, Wis., in 1912,
but lie was farmed out in both 1912
and 1913. Last season he was called
upon to play thin! base after Shafer
retired from basebail.
.lack Adams never plaved with the
oiants, but was purchased last fall from
the New Orleans team of the Southern
League. He formerly [»!ayed with the
Cleveland Americans. These three plav-
I ers go to Philadelphia in the trade *or

BAN STILL IN 10NTH0L
Change In Ownership of New York Club
Proves It
Ban Johnson has once more proved
that he is in full control of the Amer
ican League, says Ed. Grillo in the
"Star." The sale of the New York
club, which had for a purpose the elimi
nation of Prank Parrell and Bill l"»ev
ery, was planned by the American
I-ieague chief. It is well known in
baseball circles thai when the former
New York owners had their run-in with
Frunk Chance last fall, which resulted
in the latter severing his connection
with the Yankees, Ban Johnson made
up his mind then and there to make a
change in the ownership of the New
York club.
It was no easy matter to find men
with money sufficient to make the deal
and satisfy the owners of the club.
Yet President Ban succeeded in accom
plishing this when he interested Rup
pert and Huston.
The change of ownership was a ten
strike for the American League. Not
only was the change heralded as a win
ning move by the other magnates, but
the fans the circuit over recognize the
advantage it gives the league.
Ruppert and Huston are men of
wealth. Ruppert is reported to be
worth anywhere from $25,000,000 to
$30,000,000. It is believed that iu
due time he will build a new ball park
which will be nearer to the center of
New York City than are the Polo
Grounds. Such an investment would
give the American League a great ad
vantage over its rival in New York.
