New vete York, Jan. 12 shortston —Arthur Fletch- of the Giants rday was appointed team r 1918, Te succeeds, Charley Herzog ly traded to the Boston Brave: Iletcher deserves the honor, as he the veteran of the team in point service, having come to New York in 1909. He an aggressive, fighting player. He will be aptain in deed as well as in name. The appointment will no doubt be regarded with sati faction among New York fans. The naming of Iletcher caused quite a surprise, as it had been sup- posed that Doyle would be given his old commission. It will be something new for Larry to serve as a private | in the ranks. He was captain of the Giants for quite a number of yeers, and was appointed captain of the Chi- ago club directly after his transfer to the Cubs. The fact that the cap- taincy for 1918 was given to Iletcher makes it appear that McGraw does not intend to use Doyle ns next son.
